21.Ordinance rejecting the apparent low bid of Burnside Services, Inc. as
non-responsive for lack of related experience and awarding a
construction contract to Clark Pipeline Services, Corpus Christi, Texas,
for the reconstruction of Leopard Street from Palm Drive to Nueces Bay
Boulevard, located in Council District 1, with new asphalt pavement and
utility improvements in an amount of $5,262,457.37 with FY 2021 funding
available from Bond 2018, Bond 2016, Storm Water, Wastewater, Gas,
and Water Funds.
Mayor Guajardo referred to Item 21.
Director of Engineering Services Jeff Edmonds stated that there are three
actions being taken with this item: awarding a construction contract for a 2018
proposition A arterial road reconstruction project; rejecting low bidder as
non-responsive; and aligning the funding to do the project.
Council Members, Director Edmonds, City Manager Peter Zanoni, Director of
Finance Heather Hurlbert, Chief Financial Officer Constance Sanchez and
Director of Public Works Richard Martinez discussed the following topics:
Council Members' concern with the process of hiring bidders; a Council
Member's request to create a street program for bids on concrete versus
asphalt; a Council Member's opinion that Leopard Street should be made of
concrete because it is in a heavy industrial area; there is currently a Council
policy in place for asphalt and concrete streets; a Council Member's request to
pre-qualify new contractors before they prepare a bid; the three types of bonds
that are required on construction projects are bid, performance and payment;
the City's policy is to award to the lowest, responsive and responsible bidder; a
Council Member's perception that staff decisions are being based on an
opinion and not on criteria; the projects presented by the contractor with the
bid were not projects that were in similar complexity or size to the project for
the contract that was being awarded; the contractors have the option of
attending a pre-bid conference to ask questions and provide qualifications
before bidding; a Council Member's concern about moving funds from the 2016
residential streets bond for this project; a Council Member's concern that the
bid difference was almost $700,000 and the accountability to use taxpayers'
money appropriately; a Council Member's request for another discussion on
the concrete versus asphalt policy; there are maintenance issues for both
asphalt and concrete; the City seems to fall short on materials testing and
inspection; and spends about one percent of construction value on materials
testing.
Council Member Lerma made a motion to approve this ordinance, seconded
by Council Member Pusley. This Ordinance was passed on first reading and
approved with the following vote:

COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION PROCESS
The Contracts and Procurement Department issued a Request for Bids for the proposed Leopard
Street construction project. The solicitation contained two base bids, Base Bid 1 (asphalt) and
Base Bid 2 (concrete). On November 18, 2020, the City received bids for each segment as
provided below:
CONTRACTOR
BASE BID 1
(ASPHALT)
BASE BID 2
(CONCRETE)

$6,299,999.00 NO BIID
Clark Pipeline Services $5,262,457.37 NO BID
*Burnside Services Inc. $4,606,359.05 $5,125,544.35
JE Services $5,533,812.90 $5,657,875.00
Reytec NO BID $5,984,898.00
Engineer’s Opinion of
Probable Cost $5,446,075.47 $6,165,160.36
* - Nonresponsive bidder
Per City Council Policy 28 - Award Guidelines for Arterial and Collector Streets, an award
recommendation for concrete pavement is made if the total cost of the concrete bid does not
exceed $128,000/lane mile ($18.18/SY) of the asphalt cost, majority of the subgrade is with a
Plasticity Index of greater than 30 and consideration to the adjacent pavement section to provide
uniform pavement surface type.
The Plasticity index of the street is between 15-30 and the adjacent pavement section to this
project limits is asphalt. This project includes approximately 2.57 lane-miles (5 travel lanes) of
pavement. The construction cost difference between the concrete and the asphalt pavement is $
395,417.63 for 2.57 lane-miles, which equates to $153,859.00 per lane-miles ($21.89/SY). Based
on the calculation, and the adjacent pavement section, staff recommends the award of Base Bid
1 for asphalt pavement.
Staff analyzed the submitted bids in accordance with contract documents and determined
Burnside Services Inc were the lowest responsive and responsible bidders. Due to Burnside
Services failure to demonstrate the required experience, their bid was declared non-responsive.
Clark Pipeline Services is therefore the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Staff is
recommending awarding the contract to Clark Pipeline Services.
Clark Pipeline Services has successfully completed the following city projects: Alameda from Six
Points to Louisiana in 2019, Ayers Street from Ocean Drive to Alameda Street in 2019, Navigation
Boulevard from Leopard Street to Up River Road in 2018, Padre Island Water and Gas Project in
2018, and the Water IDIQ in 2017. Additionally, Clark Pipeline has successfully completed several
emergency declaration projects.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative is not to award construction contracts to Clark Pipeline Services, and this would
delay the project and conflict with City Council’s goal to expedite street projects.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact in FY 2021 is an amount of $5,262,457.37 with funding available from the Bond
2018, Bond 2016, Storm Water, Wastewater, Gas, and Water Funds.
Funding Detail:
Project expenditures presented in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) were preliminary cost
estimates. Funding for the project has been aligned by transferring funds from Bond 2016
reserves.

Dear Mr. Martinez:
Roadway Asset Services, LLC (RAS) is pleased to submit this letter addressing the City of Corpus Christi
pavement selection criteria when bidding street projects using both hot mix asphalt concrete (HMAC) and
Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement. The purpose of this letter was to provide additional criteria
for consideration in design of street projects to streamline the decision process and to provide
consideration of not only traffic loading conditions and Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA), but also subgrade
support characteristics and surrounding surface pavement types.
In preparation of this project, we received the following documents for review:
A memorandum from Freese and Nichols titled, “Pavement Selection Criteria”, dated April 22,
2019
A City of Corpus Christi Memorandum titled, “City Council Action Request (CCAR) – January 31,
2017 Bidding Street Bond Projects with Both Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) and Hot-Mix-
Asphalt-Concrete (HMAC), dated February 2, 2017
A City of Corpus Christi Memorandum titled, “City Council Action Request (CCAR) – April 25, 2017
Bidding Street Bond Projects with Both Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) and Hot-Mix-Asphalt-
Concrete (HMAC), dated June 2, 2017
A City of Corpus Christi Memorandum titled, “City Council Action Request (CCAR) – Hot-Mix-
Asphalt-Concrete (HMAC) & Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) Pavements, dated April 22, 2019
Background
Based upon review of the provided documents, we understand the City started designing and bidding
street projects using both HMAC and PCC as part of the 2008 Bond program. Prior to 2008, the City would
typically design arterial road reconstruction projects with HMAC pavement. In 2013 the City Council
modified the pavement design standards with a 30-year design for both HMAC and PCC using the
American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Guide for Design of
Pavement Structures. The market at the time allowed for more projects to be constructed with PCC. Then
in 2016, the City began designing and bidding all arterial Bond projects with both HMAC and PCC
alternatives and choosing the lower life cycle cost alternative. In 2017, Engineering Services provided a
response to a City Council Action Request providing information on LCCA guidelines for evaluating both
HMAC and PCC pavement designs for street project bids. The response provided information on the cost
savings of selecting PCC with lower maintenance cost of approximately $100,000 per lane-mile, or $14,20
per square yard. This difference was used by staff to determine which pavement surface material to use
based on project bids. If the PCC bid cost was within $100,000 of the HMAC bid, then PCC was chosen as
the surface material.
2
In 2019 Freese and Nichols (FNI) provided a report with further analysis and guidelines into the decision
process of using LCCA to determine which pavement surface to use for each project. The Freese and
Nichols memo provided guidelines for using the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) “Real Cost”
program to perform the LCCA analysis. This memo also provided cost data and maintenance cycle
guidelines for both HMAC and PCC alternatives. The Freese and Nichols memo also introduced a weighted
decision matrix as a tool to determine which pavement surface to use when the difference between total
project bid pricing for HMAC and PCC pavement alternatives falls between a specified range of cost. The
matrix included such factors as Average Daily Traffic (ADT), Percentage of Trucks and Buses, Adjacent
Development/# of Driveways, and Other Engineering Factors. Each factor was provided a weight factor
to determine a total score for each alternative. Recommendations from the memo provided a new set of
guidelines based on the LCCA performed as part of the design, with current data, and the following
criteria:
1. When the cost difference of PCC is below $96,000 ($13,57/SY), the City should recommend
PCC
2. When the cost difference of PCC is within the range of $96,000 ($13.57/SY) to $156,000
($22.55/SY), the City should review the decision matrix to assist with the pavement
recommendation (subject to availability of funds)
3. When the dost difference of PCC is above $156,000 ($22.55/SY), the City should
recommend HMAC
An April 2019 City Council Action Request Memo states that “Although Engineering Services agrees with
using the FNI decision matrix to decide which projects are appropriate to bid with both PCC and HMAC,
staff also believe adopting a bid award recommendation policy that is known in advance by bidders is a
more fair and transparent process. FNI’s decision criteria are good to use in the Design Phase (not Bid
Phase) when deciding whether it is appropriate to design and bid a project with both HMAC and PCC
pavements.” The memo recommends Engineering Services raise the amount to $125,000 per lane mile
($17.75/square yard), which is approximately the midpoint of the range of $96,000 and $156,000 where
FNI recommends applying the decision matrix.
The City Council Action Request Memo, dated April 22, 2019, also states that “Engineering Services believe
that most arterials are good candidates to design and bid with both PCC and HMAC pavement. Residential
collectors and residential streets are not as good candidates for PCC due to factors listed in the FNI
decision matrix as well as other factors.”
Decision Criteria Updates
In review of the 2019 Freese and Nichols report we believed the LCCA models could be revised to include
guidelines for treatment applications based on our experience with pavement evaluations and
deterioration curves. We wanted to incorporate some of the decision matrix issues into the LCCA to
simplify this process and remove the need for the matrix system. We believe the average daily traffic and
percentage truck issues are important issues to consider, but these factors are largely accounted for in
the design of the pavement structure, which is the initial capital expense. The option that we thought
would be most helpful in keeping this process simple would be to break the LCCA guidelines into two main
categories based on arterial level streets and residential streets. With this division, the LCCA can consider
3
the different performance expectations and maintenance needs for each main distinction in traffic
volumes.
Based on our experience evaluating pavement networks and general performance, we believe residential
pavements may have a longer service life due partially to the lower truck volume and most distresses
being related to environmental factors and the tolerance of a slightly lower level of service than arterial
streets. Residential streets require maintenance to enhance the performance with low traffic and
exposure to the environmental elements, but often less structural repair. In contrast, arterial streets
require more frequent maintenance and often more structural improvements, due to the heavier loading
from traffic. The types of maintenance for arterial streets are different than those needed for residential
streets. We developed two different approaches for maintenance for arterial and residential streets.
In addition to the traffic impact, we believe the soil types, support characteristics, and expansive potential
of clay soils also have a major impact on the performance of pavement structures. In our experience,
pavements on clays soils must be designed with an additional stabilized layer, which should be accounted
for in the initial design and capital expenses. However, due to deep wetting of the subgrade, expansive
soils will also require more frequent maintenance due to the higher percentage of cracking and
differential movement anticipated and, in some cases, different maintenance. HMAC pavements will
likely require addition mill and overlay activities to correct differential movement and PCC pavements will
likely require grinding and additional panel replacements due to the differential movements. A separate
set of guidelines were developed for both the arterial and residential classifications of roadway for
expansive soils. We characterize expansive soils as those exhibiting plasticity indices (PI) greater than 30.
Laboratory tests and swell testing can be conducted to find specific characteristics of soil samples within
each roadway, but a PI of 30 is largely considered as the threshold from low to moderate expansion
potential among geotechnical engineers.
We used typical maintenance treatments that the City of Corpus Christi would use for the various
classifications of streets. We visited with the City Engineering Services staff to identify treatments,
estimated costs per square yard, and when and how often they would typically apply these treatments
for each level of roadway. We did not consider minor activities such as periodic pothole patching in the
LCCA models and analysis as these costs are sporadic and negligible to the overall life cycle cost.
The following tables present our recommended maintenance activities, year of application, and estimated
cost for each treatment. Illustrations of the deterioration models used to develop the maintenance
criteria and strategies are included in Appendix A of this report.

Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) Models
We used a simple spreadsheet (modeled similar to the Federal Highway Administration’s “Real Cost”
program, but more transparent and simple to follow) to evaluate the LCCA for the four categories (eight
scenarios) developed using the split between arterials and residential streets, and non-expansive soils
versus expansive soils for both HMAC and PCC pavements. The spreadsheet was used to model the
assigned maintenance activities developed from the deterioration curves and assigned costs determined
in the previous section for each activity based on the year of application. A 4.0% discount rate and 3.0%
inflation rate were used to determine future costs and equate them to present worth value for a 40-year
analysis per lane mile. A simple user fee was also accounted for based upon an assumed delay due to the
activity and a simple cost per hour of the delay. The total present worth value was used for each scenario
to determine the total 40-year maintenance cost anticipated per lane mile for each scenario. The
difference between this maintenance cost per lane mile were used to develop new recommendations for
when to choose PCC over HMAC based on the maintenance differential costs.
Table 9 - LCCA Comparison of Alternatives
PWV ($/lane mile) Difference
PCC Arterial $472,190
HMAC Arterial $600,698 $128,509
PCC Arterial (Expansive) $605,053
HMAC Arterial (Expansive) $623,099 $18,046
PCC Residential $274,970
HMAC Residential $333,909 $58,938
PCC Residential (Expansive) $367,446
HMAC Residential (Expansive) $334,475 -$32,971

The results indicate that for arterial streets on soils with a PI less than 30, if the initial construction bid is
within $128,000 ($18.18/SY) between HMAC and PCC, then PCC should be chosen. If the difference in
initial construction bid is greater than $128,00, then HMAC should be chosen. A much lower level was
found for arterials on expansive soils and in residential streets. For streets with expansive soils, where
the PI of the majority of the soil is greater than 30 and defined as a moderate to high swell potential by
the design Geotechnical Engineer, the LCCA models indicate a HMAC surface should be used for both
arterial streets and residential streets. Further evaluation of the arterial streets shows the comparison of
the alternatives based on agency costs and user costs.

Complete results of all the LCCA evaluations for all eight scenarios are presented in Appendix B of this
letter.
Recommendations
Based upon the results of our evaluations, we recommend the City adopt a simple process for making the
decision between HMAC and PCC pavements when bidding street projects. We believe the initial division
should separate projects between arterial/collector business streets and residential streets. The
secondary division should then consider the supporting subgrade within the project, between expansive
clay soils and non-expansive soils, based on the geotechnical design report, which will summarize the
basic soil types in the project. We recommend defining the project as on expansive soils when most of
the subgrade within the alignment contains a PI greater than 30, or as classified by the project
Geotechnical Engineer as expansive soil. These two divisions divide potential projects into four categories.
The first category is an arterial street on non-expansive soils. We recommend choosing PCC pavement
when the bid price is within $128,000 per lane mile ($18.18/SY). This will allow a good portion of PCC
pavements for the high traffic volume streets and provide a durable, lowest cost maintenance option for
the street.
The second category is an arterial street on expansive soils. We recommend choosing HMAC pavement
when the subgrade soils contain mostly moderate to highly expansive soils. Design can account for some
of the expansion potential of the soils and stabilized layers beneath the pavement structure can certainly
reduce the risk and improve structural strength and performance. However, based upon the nature of
expansive soils and the depth of potential wetting of the subgrade, expansion and vertical movement can
8
occur as deep as eight (8) feet below the pavement surface, or even deeper in extreme situations. This
movement causes differential movement at PCC joints and uplift of all pavement surfaces in isolated
heaves oriented perpendicular to traffic travel. The deterioration models were designed to account for
this potential movement to model the maintenance that would be required for each pavement type. The
LCCA results indicate the bid for a PCC pavement would need to be within $18,000 per lane mile to make
sense to pave with PCC. Due to this low differential is maintenance cost, we recommend choosing HMAC
for this category regardless of the bid price.
The third and forth categories are for residential streets on non-expansive soils and expansive soils. The
LCCA model for residential streets on non-expansive soils indicated if the PCC bid is within $59,000/lane
mile, PCC should be chosen. The LCCA model for residential streets on expansive soils indicates there is
no bid price that would make PCC a cheaper selection based upon the maintenance anticipated. Based
upon the financial investments in the initial pavement structure and utilities, likelihood of cuts in the
pavement for the numerous residential utility extensions, and the difficulty in reconstruction and
maintenance of PCC in residential areas, we do not recommend selecting PCC in either these categories
for residential streets.
Based upon the results of the LCCA criteria and models established in this evaluation, we recommend the
pavement surface material selection should be based on the following:
1. When the cost difference of PCC is below $128,000/lane mile ($18.18/SY), the City should
recommend PCC.
2. When the project contains a majority subgrade with a PI greater than 30 or deemed as a
moderate to highly expansive soil by the design Geotechnical Engineer, the City should
recommend HMAC.
3. When the project is a residential street classification, for non-expansive and expansive
subgrade soils, the City should recommend HMAC.
4. Other criteria to consider is if the adjacent pavement section is PCC, consideration should be
given to providing a uniform surface type, at the discretion of the City Engineering Services
staff.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide professional services for the evaluation and development of
recommendations for pavement selection criteria when bidding street projects using both hot mix asphalt
concrete (HMAC) and Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement. Please call if you have any questions
regarding the recommendations provided in this letter.

CAPTION:
Ordinance authorizing a four-month service agreement with Lindamood Inc., for an
amount not to exceed $212,378.00 for demolition of Aircraft Hangar One at the Corpus
Christi International Airport; appropriating funds from the unreserved fund balance of the
Airport Capital Reserves; and amending the budget.
SUMMARY:
This item recommends a four-month service agreement to demolish Aircraft Hangar One
at Corpus Christi International Airport (CCIA). The demolition project will be overseen by
Asset Management.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The CCIA is owned, operated, and maintained by the City of Corpus Christi and located
in Nueces County, Texas. CCIA is made up of over 2,700 acres; 1,100 acres being inside
the Airport Operations Area (AOA) and classified as a non-hub, commercial service
airport.
Demolition of Aircraft Hangar One at the
Corpus Christi International Airport (CCIA)
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
First Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting February 23, 2021
Second Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting March 16, 2021
The East GA Hangar No. 1 is a single-story hyperbolic paraboloid arch concrete facility
constructed in the early 1960’s. The facility served primarily as a hangar with office space
to the East Side Fixed Base Operations (FBO) serving the general aviation community.
The Facility had been under lease and managed by Signature Flight Support up until their
departure in March 2020.
The hangar roof and foundation are constructed with reinforced concrete. The end walls
are metal panels. The total size is approximately 28,000 SF allocated to open hangar
space and 8,000 SF for administrative offices. The concrete roof has a fully adhered
membrane covering. Severe structural cracks were discovered in the roof structure
during visual field investigations in 2020. Age, and recent damage from Hurricane Harvey
have revealed multiple distresses in the building structure including:
Building structure include several concrete spalls and pop-outs which indicate that
future spalls or pop-outs could occur which is a potential safety hazard for
personnel and aircraft.
No longer being watertight resulting in developments of mold and mildew.
Fiberglass infill panels between the concrete sub-structures are disintegrating.
Wooden framing member is rotting.
Cracked concrete floor inadequately sloped floor allowing water to migrate into the
hanger.
Most of the exposed interior steel framing is also corroding.
With several deficiencies noted, including the potential for safety hazards from future pop -
outs and spalls, the airport has closed the facility from public entry. The Hangar is several
decades old and there are several concerns with the overall building, its usability, and
serviceability. Considering both the cost and the risk of unknown performance of our 60+
year old facility, the city staff and our A/E consultant recommend demolishing the
structure.
Contracts and Procurement conducted a competitive Request for Bid process and
received eight bids and is recommending award to the lowest, responsive, responsible
bidder, Lindamood, Inc.
ALTERNATIVES:
Repairing the hangar would cost more than building a new structure.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact for Aviation in FY 2021 is $212,378.00 for a four-month service
agreement.

CAPTION:
Ordinance appropriating $202,931.55 from the unreserved fund balance in the Airport Operating
Fund for the purchase of parking/revenue control systems, pay-on-foot machines, booths, and
canopies for Corpus Christi International Airport and amending the budget.
SUMMARY:
Purchase of the equipment will replace/repair equipment, canopies and booths that were installed
in 2014. The new equipment and materials will enhance customer service, provide customers
more options to pay, and ultimately help to reduce manpower associated with the parking control
plaza.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
On March 19, 2013, the City Council approved a management service agreement with Republic
Parking System (RPS). RPS assumed responsibility for parking operations at the Corpus Christi
International Airport on June 03, 2013. The industry trend at that time shifted to outside
management agreements that allow for flexibility and financial investment by the contractor. In
exchange for the contract and capital investment of $400,000, only $197,068.45 of these funds
were used. The remaining funds of $202,931.55 will be utilized to replace/repair equipment,
canopies and booths that were installed in 2014.
Since that time, many conditions have changed, (i.e., Affordable Health Care Act, COVID, and an
aging parking revenue system). Therefore, the city (i.e., airport staff) will assume the
responsibility for all parking operations at the airport. This will be done with a hybrid staffing, that
will allow flexibility in work assignments throughout the day, and not just related to parking
operations. These positions will also assist the Operations Division with inspections, assist
customers in the terminal, assist Facilities Division with the Quick Turnaround Facility (QTA) and
pick-up litter and debris as they traverse the grounds of the airport. The increase in revenue to
the airport will be more than $200,000 after year one.

CAPTION:
Motion authorizing a three-year service agreement with Industrial/Organizational
Solutions, Inc. of Oak Brook, Illinois for a total amount not to exceed $379,210.00 for
promotional testing services for the Corpus Christi Police Department (CCPD) through
the Human Resources Department, with FY 2021 funding in an amount of $63,000.00
available through the General Fund.
SUMMARY:
This motion authorizes a three-year service agreement with Industrial/Organizational
Solutions, Inc. for promotional testing services for CCPD. This firm will provide, design,
validate, administer, score, and present the results of a promotional process that
incorporates best practices currently used in the field of testing to assist CCPD identify
incumbents who are best qualified for promotion to the ranks of Senior Officer, Police
Lieutenant, and Police Captain.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The previous contract was with Dennis A. Joiner & Associates and was $17,232.68 for
FY 2020. The selected consultant will develop the test. The selected consultant also will
provide the City with experience and knowledge in test development and the
Promotional Testing for Police Department
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting March 16, 2021
administration of promotional examinations as well as legally defensible assessments of
candidates, job analysis, and assessment center development and administration. The
Consultant also will assist the City in maintaining compliance with Collective Bargaining
Agreements, Local Government Code Chapter 143 and City of Corpus Christi Civil
Service Commission Rules and Regulation.
On September 28, 2020, the Contracts and Procurement Department issued a Request
for Proposals to obtain qualified firms for promotional testing services with the RFQ
Number 3227 for the Corpus Christi Police Department. The City received a total of four
Proposals. The selection committee consisted of representatives from the Police
Department and the Human Resources Department. On December 2, 2020, the selection
committee conducted interviews with all four of the firms that were recommended by the
evaluation committee. Firms were ranked based on five factors: 1) firm’s experience and
qualifications of firm; 2) experience and qualifications of the project manager and key
staff; 3) project approach and management plan; 4) respondent capacity; and 5)
respondent past performance
ALTERNATIVES:
An alternative to not securing a three-year contract would be for the Human Resources
Department to hire a consulting firm each time promotional testing must be conducted.
The Human Resources Department would be required to do this in order to comply with
the Police Department’s Collective Bargaining agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT:

CAPTION:
Motion authorizing a two-year service agreement for executive recruitment services in an
amount not to exceed $294,000.00 with payment only when services are rendered with
Baker Tilly US, LLP of Plano, Texas, for the recruitment of hard to fill executive-level
positions to be used by City departments through the Human Resources Department,
effective upon issuance of a notice to proceed, FY 2021 funding is available in various
funds.
SUMMARY:
This motion authorizes a two-year service agreement for recruitment services of hard to
fill executive-level positions to be used by City departments. The Human Resources
Department will oversee and manage the contract, as they work directly with the
departments requesting recruitment services. This contract will allow for the development
of a large pooling of qualified executive-level candidates to fill vacant executive-level
positions across City departments.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The current process for utilizing an Executive search firm requires an adhoc Request for
Quote (RFQ) as a specialty one-time recruitment item which is more expensive and adds
four to six weeks to the recruitment timeline for each recruitment need. Having a contract
in place with one firm will provide immediate availability of recruitment sources with
Executive-Level Recruitment Services
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting March 16, 2021
competitive and discounted pricing.
Executive search firms specialize in the recruitment and selection process of key
professionals and executive leaders for public sector organizations and develop
customized search strategies that focus on locating and recruiting highly qualified
candidates to match the organizations’ needs. These search firms employ full-time
executive recruiters who have a proactive approach in identifying and recruiting top talent
across the country and maintaining a robust database of candidates to meet clients’
needs. They also work to continuously build an extensive network of external resources
for leveraging executive-level talent. This service will only be used on an as needed basis
for Executive positions that are difficult to fill or are considered a specialized skill set. It is
mission critical to the City that leadership positions are filled with the best available talent
as quickly and reliably as possible in order to reduce the negative effects of vacant
executive-level positions.
On November 02, 2020, the Contracts and Procurement Department issued a Request
for Proposals for the Human Resources Department with the RFP Number 3334 for
Executive Recruitment Services. The City received a total of six Proposals. The selection
committee consisted of representatives from the City Manager’s Office, the Human
Resources Department, and the Aviation Department. On January 21, 2021, the selection
committee conducted interviews for four of the firms that were recommended by the
evaluation committee. Firms were ranked based on five factors: 1) firm’s experience and
qualifications of firm; 2) experience and qualifications of the project manager and key
staff; 3) project approach and management plan; 4) respondent capacity; and 5)
respondent past performance.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative would be to conduct the recruitment using City staff. The City recruitment
staff has very limited access to national recruitment resources, tools, and the broad
professional networks of executive-level candidates.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City only will be charged if services are rendered, at which time appropriate funding
sources will be identified.
FUNDING DETAIL:
Recruitment Services will be utilized for executive-level positions for various City
departments on an as-needed basis. City departments requesting the recruitment
services provide through this agreement will be responsible for the funding associated
with the placement of the position(s).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this motion authorizing a two-year service agreement with
Baker Tilly US, LLP for recruitment services as presented.

CAPTION
Motion authorizing a three-year service agreement with Gulf Coast Security Enterprises
LLC of New Orleans, Louisiana, in an amount not to exceed $145,890.00 for Armed
Security Guard Services for Sunrise Beach, with FY 2021 funding in an estimated amount
of $32,420.00 available through the Utilities Department Water Fund.
SUMMARY:
This motion authorizes a three-year service agreement for armed security guard services
and on-site monitoring for Sunrise Beach between the hours of 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
Sunrise Beach Park is located approximately four miles southwest of Mathis and at the
north end of Wesley E. Seale Dam. The Park is 33.5 acres in size and has approximately
one mile of shoreline on Lake Corpus Christi. Sunrise Beach Park was operated by
private individuals under contract with the City of Corpus Christi Water Department until
January 1, 2009, when the Water Department a ssumed operation of the Park.
Currently, Sunrise Beach staff calls the San Patricio County Sheriff Department for law
enforcement assistance. The security guard, under this service agreement, will be
assigned to monitor the front gate allowing only paid customers entry and will enforce and
deliver eviction and non-compliance notices when required.
Armed Security Guard Services for Sunrise Beach for the Utilities Department
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting of March 16, 2021
The Contracts and Procurement Department conducted a competitive Request for Bids
process to obtain bids. The City received four responsive, responsible bids and one non-
responsive bid. Staff is recommending award to the lowest, responsible bidder, Gulf
Coast Security Enterprises LLC of New Orleans, Louisiana.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative to accepting this bid would be to call the San Patricio County Sheriff
Department for law enforcement needs. However, the risk of problems escalating without
a security guard on-site would continue to exist. A security guard on-site will assist in
resolving problems as quickly as possible and will be familiar with the daily clientele.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact for the Utilities Department is an amount not to exceed $32,420.00 for
the first year of the three-year service agreement from the FY 2021 Water Fund, with the
remaining cost of $113,470.00 to be budgeted in future years through the annual budget
process.

Resolution authorizing a three-year supply agreement in an amount not to exceed
$612,537.94 with TDW (US), Inc. of Tulsa, Oklahoma, for the purchase of Stopple
equipment parts for Gas Operations, effective upon issuance of notice to proceed, with
FY 2021 funding in the amount not to exceed $119,105.00 available in the Gas Fund.
SUMMARY:
This resolution authorizes a three-year supply agreement for the purchase of Stopple
equipment parts for Gas Operations. This agreement is necessary to repair pipeline and
isolate a section of a gas line in the absence of a pressure control fitting.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
TDW provides hot tapping services and equipment that enable pipeline owners and
operators to safely, efficiently, and cost effectively perform pipeline modification and
repair activities without shutdown and with minimal disruption to product flow.
Stopple fittings can be used as an alternative to conventional stopple fittings in a variety
of hot tapping and plugging operations. The fittings are a crucial part of pipeline integrity,
enabling operators to isolate an in-services pipeline for repair, replacement, maintenance,
or other work. The plugging system is designed for isolating metal pipelines and
polyethylene lines. They are designed for use with TDW plugging machines. TDW
shortstop provides a sound alternative to squeezing a PE line when you want to branch,

reroute, or relocate a system. TDW quality minimizes waste, enhances value, protects
Health, Safety, and the environment. Their products deliver the highest quality products
and services. The City of Corpus Christi Gas Department ha ve exclusively utilized TDW
to keep in uniform with existing equipment, tools, and training. Any other brand stopple
equipment will or may not be true to size and very costly to the department since all
equipment and fittings are TDW.
This is a sole source procurement. TDW is the sole distributor for Stopple fittings and are
warrantied and serviced at their facility.
ALTERNATIVES:
An alternative is to not enter into a supply agreement, which would require separate
procurements on an as needed basis. This would reduce the economies of scale pricing
secured through a long-term contract and increase the time delay due to the procurement
process, resulting in a longer lead time for needed services.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact for the Gas Operations in FY 2021 is an amount not to exceed
$119,105.00. The remaining cost of $493,433.00 will be budgeted in future years through
the annual budget process.

Stopple Equipment and how it works.
Stopple Equipment is used to isolate a section of gas line in the absence of a permanently installed
shutoff valve. This is the step by step process.
1. Hot Tap process
a. Hot Tap Fitting- A flanged saddle Tap is welded to the pipe while it is still has gas
pressure. This is basically a Tap Tee and at this stage the pressurized pipe has not been
penetrated or opened.
b. A hot tap valve is bolted to the flange of the hot tap fitting. This is a temporary valve
that is used to shut the gas off during the different stages of the process.
c. The hot tap machine is bolted to the hot tap valve. The hot tap machine is a sealed
housing that includes a cutter which is a hole saw used to cut an opening into the
pressurized pipe.
d. The hot Tap valve is opened and the cutter is lowered to the pipe and a hole is cut into
the pressurized pipe.
e. After the hole is cut the cutter is raised above the hot tap valve, and the hot tap valve is
shut.
2. Stopple Process
a. The hot tap machine is removed from the hot tap valve and replaced with a stopple
machine. The Stopple machine includes one or two folding rubber plug “stopple plug”
that is small enough to fit through the previously cut hole.
b. The hot tap valve is opened and the stopple plug is lowered into the still pressurized
pipe.
c. Once in the pipe the stopple is positioned to one side of the inside of the pipe away
from the hole and unfolds to expand to the inside diameter of the pipe until the flow of
gas is stopped. This takes an incredible level of skill by our most experienced
technicians because it is a difficult process that is not always exact.
d. Depending on the nature of the work this process may be performed at multiple
locations, and sometimes includes adding a bypass line between stopples so that the
delivery of gas is not interrupted while the repair work is completed.

CAPTION:
Motion authorizing the purchase of four replacement Club Car Carryall 1500 Trucksters,
and one replacement Club Car Carryall 1700 Truckster to be used for the cleanup of
parks and beaches from River City Marketing, Inc. (dba Corpus Christi Golf Cars) for a
total amount of $78,542.85 with FY 2021 funding available through the Equipment
Replacement Fund.
SUMMARY:
This motion authorizes the replacement purchase of four Club Car Carryall 1500
Trucksters and one Club Car Carryall 1700 Truckster through the Omnia Partners
Cooperative. These units will be utilized for the cleanup of beaches and beach rescue.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
Parks and Recreation currently has a requirement for the purchase of four Club Car
Carryall 1500 Trucksters and one Club Car Carryall 1700 Truckster. These units would
be used at the Parks’ Beach Operations. The new units will have all-aluminum frames
and beds to withstand the harsh environment. The current units in operation consist of
two 2018 Kubota RTV900s, and three 2017 Kubota RTV900s. However, these units have
not met their expected service lives due to severe rust damage from the harsh saltwater
environment.
This procurement is through the Omnia Partners Cooperative. Contracts awarded
through the Omnia Partners Cooperative has been competitively procured in compliance
with Texas Local and State procurement requirements. The percentage of savings on the
Omnia Partners Cooperative quote is 15% less than MSRP. In view of these savings, it

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting March 16, 2021
is the recommended method of purchase for the City.
ALTERNATIVES:
An alternative is to continue using the older model Kubota RTV900s which would require
frequent maintenance. This issue would lead to extensive out-of-service time while the
vehicles are being repaired.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact for FY21 is a total amount of $78,542.85 for the purchase of four Club
Car Carryall 1500 Trucksters, and one Club Car Carryall 1700 Truckster to be funded
through the Equipment Replacement Fund

CAPTION:
Motion authorizing a one-year service agreement for Digital Marketing Campaign for the
Corpus Christi International Airport (CCIA) with Bell Media LLC of Montgomery, Alabama
for a total amount of $89,880.00, with FY 2021 funding available through the Airport Fund.
SUMMARY:
Motion authorizing a one-year service agreement with Bell Media LLC to provide a
comprehensive Digital Marketing Campaign to entice travelers in the Coastal Bend to
choose CCIA, therefore reducing leakage to other airports, increasing enplanements, and
raising load factors at CCIA.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, approximately 45% of air travelers in this region were
choosing to drive to larger airports to get cheaper fares and non -stop flights. This
“leakage” makes it more difficult to convince the commercial airlines to increase service
at CCIA. CCIA has an opportunity to get in front of people who are planning to travel
again soon by implementing a digital campaign that targets people as they search on line
for flights and retargets those who do not respond immediately to the marketing
messages. The goal is to convince the traveler to book their trip out of CCIA.
Digital Marketing Campaign for CCIA
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting March 16, 2021
A similar 6-month campaign launched in June of 2020 yielded results that contributed to
reducing leakage by as much as 14 percentage points some months. In the wake of the
COVID-19 pandemic, travelers are more inclined than ever to avoid big crowds and to opt
for airports that offer convenience, plenty of space for social distancing, and a clean and
comfortable experience.
CONTRACTS AND PROCUREMENT:
Contracts and Procurement conducted a competitive Request for Proposals process to
obtain proposals from qualified firms to provide a Digital Marketing Campaign for CCIA.
The evaluation committee included City staff from the Aviation Department and an
Advisory Board member. The City received five proposals, two proposals being non -
responsive, and evaluated them against the published criteria. Two proposals were
deemed non-responsive for not using the correct pricing form as each developer must
submit a pricing breakdown as part of their proposal. The final scores were tabulated for
each firm to determine the highest-ranking firm offering the best value to the City. Staff
is recommending award to Bell Media, LLC as the highest-ranking firm.
ALTERNATIVES:
CCIA’s marketing dollars can be spent on a variety of media. None allow the kind of
market targeting that can be accomplished with search engine engagement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The financial impact of the service agreement in FY 2021 is not to exceed the one-year
contract amount of $89,880.

CAPTION:
Resolution relating to City of Corpus Christi’s intention to reimburse itself from future
issuances of Certificates of Obligation in an amount not to exceed $12,000,000 for
expenses budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2020 -2021 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and
two additional needed projects that may begin before the issuance of the Certificates of
Obligation.
SUMMARY:
The City of Corpus Christi is planning on awarding contracts for several General Fund
capital projects included in the Fiscal Year 2020 -2021 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
and two additional needed projects prior to the issuance of certificates of obligation
planned in the spring. This resolution is needed for the City to move forward with incurring
capital costs and then reimburse itself for these costs with proceeds from the certificates
of obligation once they are issued.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The City is planning on issuing Certificates of Obligation to fund ten projects in the Fiscal
Year 2020-2021 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) along with two additional needed
projects. The ten projects included in the Fiscal Year 2020 -2021 CIP include the
following:
City Hall First Floor Renovation $ 125,000
City Hall 6th Floor Conference Room $ 480,000
Various Facility Improvements $1,000,000
Museum of Science and History Cooling and Heating $1,342,440
Cefe Valenzuela Landfill Sector 2C Cell Development $ 517,000
Cefe Valenzuela Gas Collection & Control System $ 315,000
Cefe Valenzuela Landfill Road Improvements $2,000,000
JC Elliott Landfill Road Improvements $1,100,000
Solid Waste Facility Complex $2,516,500
Police Substation - Flour Bluff $1,200,000
Reimbursement Resolution for Certificates of Obligation Projects
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting March 16, 2021
The two additional projects being recommended for funding were identified subsequent
to the adoption of the Fiscal Year 2020-2021 CIP. They include:
City Hall Elevators $1,250,000
Veteran's Pavilion $ 175,000
The three public elevators at City Hall are in need of a complete overhaul in order to pass
inspection. The Veteran’s Pavilion project will provide shade structure at Sherrill Park
located at 222 South Shoreline Boulevard.
The City is able to award contracts for these projects prior to the issuance of the
certificates of obligation in order to move forward with the projects early in the fiscal year.
The City plans on issuing the certificates of obligation later in the fiscal year and will
reimburse itself an amount not to exceed $12,000,000 for expenditures with the proceeds
from the certificates of obligation.
For the City to be eligible for reimbursement of any expenditure incurred prior to the sale
of the certificates of obligation, the City must declare its intent to reimburse itself for
payments made prior to the certificates being sold. This action must meet specific U.S.
Treasury Regulations and requires approval by the City Council.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative would be to reject the reimbursement resolution, but this would prevent
contracts from being awarded and delay the start of the projects until the certificates of
obligation have been issued.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this item will authorize City staff to encumber and spend available cash to
begin awarding contracts for projects prior to the bond issuance. Once the certificates
of obligation are issued, the cash funds will be replenished with the proceeds.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the resolution as presented.

CAPTION:
Resolution authorizing a developer participation agreement with Southside Ventures III, LP to
reimburse the developer up to $91,578.18 for the City’s share of the cost to construct Oso
Parkway associated with a planned residential subdivision known as Cayo Del Oso Subdivision,
Section 4. (District 5
SUMMARY:
Southside Ventures III, LP is developing a new residential subdivision and is required to construct
a new section of Oso Parkway. The developer has requested a developer participation agreement
to extend Oso Parkway and allow the developer to continue with the planned residential
subdivision’s development.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The Developer, Southside Ventures III, LP, has requested reimbursement through a developer
participation agreement to construct 1080 linear feet of Oso Parkway. The new parkway street is
being constructed in conjunction with a residential subdivision named Cayo Del Oso Section 4.
The developer is required to construct this section of Oso Parkway in accordance with the Urban
Transportation Plan to meet the requirements of a Parkway street cross section. Oso Parkway is
designated as a Parkway Collector Street with 80 feet street right-of-way and a thicker pavement
section than a minor residential collector. The Unified Development Code (UDC) Section 8.4.1A
allows the City to participate in street construction when the street cross section exceeds a minor
residential collector. The estimated one-time cost for the portion of the new street is $91,578.18.
Additionally, the portion of the street is eligible for reimbursement of the construction costs per
Texas Local Government Code 212.072.
Participation Agreement with Southside Ventures III, LP
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Resolution for the City Council Meeting 3/16/2021
ALTERNATIVES:
This project will extend Oso Parkway as part of the regional transportation network and will
provide greater access to Cayo Del Oso Section 4. An alternative to utilizing Developer
Participation funds from available Bond monies to construct the required street improvements
would be to construct the new street under a City initiated CIP project. This option would most
likely delay the new street construction until the required funding for the street improvements
could be programmed into the CIP budget, and would most likely impact the developer’s ability to
build out his planned residential subdivision in a timely manner.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The $91,578.18 in funding for this developer participation agreement come from funds that have
been earmarked during a City Bond initiative to improve existing or construct new City streets and
other related improvements. The total estimated project cost for the Parkway Collector Street is
$305,260.60 and the difference between residential collector and parkway collector is $96,555.83
of which the maximum amount allowed by Texas Local government code 212.072 (30%) of which
will be reimbursed to the developer up to $91,578.18 as stated above. The 2012 Bond has
sufficient funds available to reimburse developers, through participation agreements, for the
construction of this section of streets, other related improvements, and improvements to existing
deteriorated streets in order to bring them up to current standards. This request is a one-time cost
associated with the development of the project.

Zoning Case No. 1120-02, Ocean Harbor II, LLC (District 4). Ordinance rezoning
property at or near 14805, 14809, 14813, and 14817 Windward Drive from the “RM-
AT/IO” Multifamily AT District with the Island Overlay to the “RM-AT/IO/PUD”
Multifamily AT District with the Island Overlay and a Planned Unit Development
SUMMARY:
The purpose of the rezoning request is to develop a 44-unit townhome development.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The subject property is 2.13 acres in size and is currently zoned “RM-AT/IO”
Multifamily AT District with an Island Overlay and consists of vacant property and
has remained undeveloped since annexation in 1981. To the north is a vacant
property zoned “CR-2/IO” Resort Commercial with the Island Overlay and Beach
Access Road 3A. To the south is a condo development (Nautilus Galleria)
zoned “RM-AT/IO” Multifamily AT District with an Island Overlay. To the east is a
condo development (The Gulfstream Condominium) zoned “CR-1/IO” Resort
Commercial with the Island Overlay. To the west is a townhome development
(Village by the Beach) zoned “RS-TH/IO/PUD” Townhouse with the Island
Overlay and a Planned Unit Development.
Conformity to City Policy
The subject property is located within the boundaries of the Mustang/Padre Island
Development Plan (ADP). The proposed rezoning to the “RM-AT/IO/PUD” Multifamily
AT District with an Island Overlay and Planned Unit Development is consistent with
the adopted Mustang/Padre Island ADP. The proposed rezoning is also consistent
with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Infill development should be encouraged
at this site. PUDs allow flexibility for attractive, efficient design and can often reduce
infrastructure installation and maintenance costs to the city. PUDs can encourage
development on difficult sites. Additionally, PUDs are encouraged in the
Mustang/Padre Island ADP. The PUD will allow for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly rentals.

Existing Land Uses & Zoning: The subject property is currently zoned “RM-AT/IO”
Multifamily AT District with an Island Overlay and consists of vacant property and has
remained undeveloped since annexation in 1981. To the north is a vacant property zoned
“CR-2/IO” Resort Commercial with the Island Overlay and Beach Access Road 3A. To
the south is a condo development (Nautilus Galleria) zoned “RM-AT/IO” Multifamily AT
District with an Island Overlay. To the east is a condo development (The Gulfstream
Condominium) zoned “CR-1/IO” Resort Commercial with the Island Overlay. To the west
is a townhome development (Village by the Beach) zoned “RS-TH/IO/PUD” Townhouse
with the Island Overlay and a Planned Unit Development.
AICUZ: The subject property is not located in one of the Navy’s Air Installation
Compatibility Use Zones (AICUZ).
Plat Status: The property is platted.
Utilities:
Water: 8-inch ACP line located along St. Bartholomew Avenue.
Wastewater: 8-inch VCP line located along the rear alleyway
Gas: 2-inch line located along the rear alleyway.
Storm Water: 18-inch line located along St. Bartholomew Avenue.
Plan CC & Area Development Plan Consistency: The subject property is located within
the boundaries of the Mustang/Padre Island Development Plan (ADP). The proposed
rezoning to the “RM-AT/IO/PUD” Multifamily AT District with an Island Overlay and
Planned Unit Development is consistent with the adopted Mustang/Padre Island ADP.
The proposed rezoning is also consistent with the following policies of the Comprehensive
Plan:
• Promote a balanced mix of land uses to accommodate continuous growth and
promote the proper location of land uses based on compatibility, locational needs,
and characteristics of each use (Future Land Use, Zoning, and Urban Design
Policy Statement 1).
• Encourage residential infill development on vacant lots within or adjacent to
existing neighborhoods. (Future Land Use, Zoning, and Urban Design Policy
Statement 3).
• Tourist-oriented business and development will continue to be encouraged and
promoted by all agencies of the City as illustrated on the Future Land Use Map.
This includes commercial ventures, condominiums and resorts, fishing and
outdoor recreation facilities, and recreational vehicle parks (Policy Statement B.2).
• The designation of “Mixed Use” in the Future Land Use Plan expresses the City’s
desire to mix residential and non-residential uses. (Policy Statement B.10).
Department Comments:
• The proposed rezoning is compatible with the Future Land Use Map, Plan CC, and
the Mustang/Padre Island Area Development Plan (ADP). The proposed rezoning is
also compatible with neighboring properties and with the general character of the
surrounding area. This rezoning does not have a negative impact upon the
surrounding neighborhood.
Staff Report
Page 4
• The property is currently vacant, zoned “RM-AT/IO” Multifamily AT District with an
Island Overlay, and has never been developed.
• Surrounding properties have been rezoned within the past decade indicating a pattern
towards high density residential and commercial development. The zoning pattern is
in line with a Plan CC policy statement of creating urban villages and accommodating
continuous growth.
• The PUD will allow Daily, Weekly, and Monthly rentals. The current “RM-AT/IO”
Multifamily AT District with the Island Overlay allows this use today.
• Infill development should be encouraged at this site. PUDs allow flexibility for
attractive, efficient design and can often reduce infrastructure installation and
maintenance costs to the city. PUDs can encourage development on difficult sites.
Additionally, PUDs are encouraged in the Mustang/Padre Island ADP.
• Staff finds that the proposed deviations are acceptable, and the request has been
approved by the Technical Review Committee (TRC).
Planning Commission and Staff Recommendation (November 11, 2020):
Approval of the change of zoning from the “RM-AT/IO” Multifamily AT District with the
Island Overlay to the “RM-AT/IO/PUD” Multifamily AT District with the Island Overlay and
a Planned Unit Development Overlay with the following conditions:
1. Planned Unit Development Guidelines and Master Site Plan: The Owners shall
develop the Property in accordance The Smuggler’s Cove (PUD) Guidelines and
Master Site Plan. The development of the Property is to consist of 44 single-family
lots and 3 common area lots.
2. Dwelling Units per Acre: The density of dwelling units on the Property shall not
exceed 21 dwelling units per acre.
3. Parking: The property must have a minimum of 1.75 parking spaces (9 feet wide by
18 feet long) per dwelling unit.
4. Setbacks and Lot Width: Minimum front yard setbacks for all lots shall be ten feet

Storm Water: Storm Basin is Osos Creek, with conveyance to Saratoga and
Brisbane. 30-inch public storm pipe runs from a Brisbane storm inlet location.
Plan CC & Area Development Plan Consistency: The subject property is located within
the boundaries of the Southside Area Development Plan and is planned for a Medium-
Density Residential use. The proposed rezoning to the “ON” Office Neighborhood District
is partially consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan (Plan CC). The following
policies should be considered:
• Encourage orderly growth of new residential, commercial, and industrial areas
(Future Land Use, Zoning, and Urban Design Policy Statement 1).
• Promote a balanced mix of land uses to accommodate continuous growth and
promote the proper location of land uses based on compatibility, locational
needs, and characteristics of each use (Future Land Use, Zoning, and Urban
Design Policy Statement 1).
• Support having a stakeholder committee to develop design standards and
policies for areas of the city where deemed appropriate. (Future Land Use,
Zoning, and Urban Design Policy Statement 3).
Department Comments:
• The proposed rezoning is partially consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan
(Plan CC), is compatible with the adjoining residential properties, and does not have
a negative impact upon the adjacent residential or multifamily properties.
• The property is currently occupied by a vacant church with associated parking.
• Surrounding properties have been established single-family residential
neighborhoods and multifamily residential for the last 40 to 50 years.
• “The Neighborhood Office zoning district provides a location for office development.
The uses allowed have relatively low traffic generation. Areas of the Neighborhood
Office zoning district may be appropriate adjacent to most residential uses, and as a
transition between residential and nonresidential areas.” (UDC Section 4.5.1)
• If the “ON” Office Neighborhood District is approved, the professional office
development will need to abide all requirements of the Unified Development Code
(UDC).
• Specifically, Section 7.9.6 Zoning District Buffer Yards, which would impose a Type
B buffer yard between the development and adjacent properties.
Staff Recommendation:
Approval of the change of zoning from the “RS-6” Single Family Residential District to the
“ON” Office Neighborhood District.
Planning Commission Recommendation (December 9, 2020):
Denial of the change of zoning from the “RS-6” Single Family Residential District to the
“ON” Office Neighborhood District.

Dear Mr. Garison:
We are writing you to express our concerns about the proposed rezoning of the Episcopal Church
property at 4518 Saratoga Blvd. We hope that the City Planning Commission will recommend that the
City Council deny the proposed rezoning of the property.
Our property is on the corner of Clearwater Dr. and Brisbane. Our backyard is adjacent to the church
parking lot. We are concerned about the following issues:
1. If the property's only entrances are on Brisbane, a business there would greatly increase traffic
which would pose greater risk for children playing in the park on Brisbane and Congressional.
2. We have lived here since 1996 and since then the church was our neighbor. We only had to
contend with extra traffic a few times a week and only for short periods. Our driveway is accessed using
Brisbane and the extra traffic from businesses on the former church property could be a nightmare each
time we try to leave the house.
3. Several-story office buildings would not only increase traffic but would create privacy issues since
people could look directly into our backyard.
4. If multi-family buildings were constructed on the property, they would create a major increase in
traffic and noise for our property. Having that kind of commercial property right behind our house could
potentially negatively affect our future property values.
Thank you for consideration of our concerns over the proposed rezoning. If the proposed changes are
allowed, it would have a serious negative affect on our daily lives at all times of each day.
Sincerely,
Thomas R. Bihner and Sheri Bihner

I received the attached Public Hearing Notice (Case No. 1220-03) regarding the petition by the
Episcopal Church for the City of Corpus Christi to consider a zoning change from Single
Family Residential (RS-6) to Office Neighborhood (ON) for the property at 4518 Saratoga
Blvd.
I live behind the property at 4517 Clearwater Dr., and I oppose the zoning change.
Please recommend that City Council deny the petition and please do not recommend an
intermediate zoning classification and/or special permit.
Please keep the zoning Single Family Residential in accordance with the Goals and Strategies
in Plan CC’s Vision for Housing & Neighborhoods, adopted by City Council, that states
that Corpus Christi “sustains and maintains established neighborhoods” to keep them safe and
free from crime.
The Planning Commission can also recommend that the petitioner seek a buyer interested in
building single-family residences such as townhouses to “encourage residential infill
development on vacant lots within or adjacent to existing neighborhoods” as stated in Plan
CC’s Goals and Strategies for Land Use, Zoning, and Urban Design.
Quality of life and safe, quiet, residential neighborhoods are a cornerstone to successful
communities. There are numerous commercial/retail/office properties currently located across
the street along the southwest and southeast corners of Saratoga and Everhart to support
business growth. Please consider this matter as if you lived behind the property in
question, and again, please recommend to deny the zoning change request.

p,.m. 12/6/2020. My name is Lanette Smith Joubert and I have lived at 4502
Greensboro Dr., Corpus Christi, Texas since 1983. I received a copy of the City
Planning Commission Public Hearing Notice on the Episcopal Church Corporation
in West Texas petition for the rezoning of the property described in the notice and
commonly known as 4518 Saratoga Blvd., Corpus Christi, Nueces County, Texas. I
strongly oppose the rezoning of the property from single family to office
neighborhood. This neighborhood is quiet with well-kept homes generally
occupied by the owners. The broad categories of possible structures that could be
built on the rezoned property mean that we could have a restaurant/bar in that
location or a three story office building with retail space. Such a structure would
destroy the neighborhood and lower property values in the area. I can't imagine a
single structure in that range of possible businesses that would enhance or benefit
the neighborhood or area. While my property is not abbutting the subject property,
lower property values in the area would adversely affect my property value.
I strongly urge the City Planning Commission to deny the petition for rezoning as
proposed. Thank you. Lanette Smith Joubert

To whom it my concern –
As one of the nearby (6413 Swansea) homeowners to the subject property I am greatly
concerned about the proposed rezoning. First and foremost this is a residential
area/neighborhood and as a matter of property values, public safety and aesthetics, putting
an office building in the middle of it runs counter to the fundamental purpose of having
residential zones, and indeed to the purpose of having zoning restrictions at all. If we are
going to allow exceptions that completely defeat the purpose of zoning laws any time
someone wants to build something that will change the nature of a neighborhood, then why
bother with having zoning laws at all? There is plenty of available space in CC in areas that are
already zoned for the type of construction being proposed at 4518 Saratoga. The developers
should look there to locate their project.
Additionally, although the current proposal is for a “2 or 3 story office building”, I see
nothing in the rezoning proposal that limits development of a different kind should the zoning
change occur. At one time there was an effort to put a funeral home on that lot – who’s to
say that if the current zoning restrictions are changed the development plan wouldn’t be
changed to a funeral home, or an 8 story office building, or anything else? Even in the event
that zoning is changed and indeed this results in a 2-3 story office building for “professional
offices” located on that site – what sort of professionals will lease those offices? We could
have counselors who treat sex offenders with offices across the street from a park full of kids.
Does that seem like a good idea?
Finally there is the matter of the purpose behind zoning restrictions. I touched on this
earlier but to be more specific, when a potential home buyer looks for the right home –
location is one of the primary considerations. People who choose to invest in home
ownership have the right to expect that when they buy a home in a single family residential
area, that area will remain as such, with all that implies as far as property values, traffic, safety
and quality of living. If one doesn’t mind living in a mixed residential/commercial area then
there are similar houses there than can be purchased for a lower price – precisely because
they are in a less desirable area. Stability is one of the most important factors in choosing a
neighborhood, and that is one of the main reasons we have zoning laws in the first place. Even
within single family residential areas, the homes near the border to a commercial area will be
valued at less than similar homes farther into the same residential area. Why? Because the
homes near the commercial areas are less desirable than the homes deeper into the
residential zone. And why is that the case? Because of more traffic, more noise, more privacy
concerns and more worries about safety.
My wife and I bought our home in November of 2003, deliberately choosing a single
family residential area so that we could raise our children in safety, without having to worry
about them going to play at the nearby park (County Club Park – right across the street from
the subject property), and so that we could generally enjoy the benefits of living in this type of
neighborhood. We could have bought in a mixed-use area and probably could have gotten
more house per dollar there – but we didn’t do that. We invested in a home in a single family
and residential only neighborhood because that’s where we wanted to live. We were willing
to (and did) pay more for our house because of that. We believed that our home would
better hold its value because of that. It is not fair to us – or the other homeowners in the area
– to change the rules in the middle of the game because someone wants to build an office
building.
Please register our strong opposition to the rezoning of the property at 4518 Saratoga
Blvd.

HI -
My name is Gary Richmer. I live at 4406 Clearwater Drive, the street right behind the
property owned by the Episcopal Church Corporation - the property in question of being
rezoned. The reason I'm sending you this e-mail is because I am in strong opposition to
having that property rezoned from "RS-6" (Single Family Residential) to "ON" (Office
Neighborhood). I have lived in this Country Club Estates neighborhood since 1980 (for the
past 40 years), and I strongly object to seeing the dynamics of this neighborhood change by
allowing office buildings to be built. My reasons for objecting to this rezoning request
includes the following:
- TRAFFIC: Office buildings bring people, and people bring traffic. There is a
quiet little park where children run with their dogs, fly their kites and practice and play school
sports (baseball, softball, soccer, football, etc) on Brisbane (the same street where the rezoning
is being requested; in fact, this park is within the 200 ft radius, the same radius as the 28
houses that received the city's Public Hearing Notices).
- PRIVACY: This office building, possibly multi-story, with houses bordering
the perimeter of the property in question, would totally encroach on the privacy of the homes
bordering this property. No amount of "buffer" property, along the fence-line of these homes,
would be enough to assure the privacy that these homes presently have and, of course, had
when the homeowners bought their houses.
- LONG-TERM USE OF THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION: If rezoning of this
property is successful, and the lawyers decide, at any time, that the demographics of this
location is not good for law offices, nothing would prevent the owners from "renting" their
facility to other establishments such as places that do "body art" (tatoos), chiropractors (places
that do massages), or for that matter any other "business" that would not be conducive to the
present "quietness" of this neighborhood.
- PROPERTY VALUES OF THE 108 HOUSES IN THIS COUNTRY CLUB
ESTATES NEIGHBORHOOD - I've spoken with several realtor friends about this situation
and they all said mostly the same thing - that having a "business" in a neighborhood makes the
houses within that neighborhood harder to sell, and because of that, the expected selling price
of these houses will usually have to be reduced (sometimes several times) in order to be sold.
Also, for your information, I would like for you to know that there WAS a prospective buyer
for that property who is a minister and who wanted to keep the existing building there and use
it for his church. He contacted Ms Caroline Mowen (Cantor/Assistant Treasurer of the
Episcopal Diocese of West Texas) to make an offer to buy the church property; I also told Mr
Lundquist about this individual, but he didn't seem interested. After several attempts to make
something happen there for his church, Pastor Terry eventually gave up.
I thank you for your time and for your interest in helping us with this extremely sensitive
situation. As a very concerned neighbor in this Country Club Estates neighborhood (one of
the nicest older neighborhoods in this city) I ask that you DISAPPROVE rezoning of this
property.
Sincerely,
GARY L RICHMER

My name is Reynaldo Narvaez and my wife is Josefa Narvaez. We reside at 4401 Congressional Dr
and have lived at this same address since I retired from the Navy in May of 1993. We chose this
neighborhood because it was and still is a nice, friendly, clean and quiet neighborhood to raise our
family.
My wife and I want to voice our objection to the proposed zoning change to the property at 4518
Saratoga case 1220-03. We are very concerned of any type of business even if they are just for
offices being erected on this property. There are no business establishments
Anywhere near our neighborhood and we prefer to keep it that way. We do not object to a church
or single family residential homes. If we allow the zoning change what could come next, a zoning
change at the Country Club Park just down the street from 4518 Saratoga on Brisbane Dr? We
cannot allow this to happen.
Thank you for this opportunity to voice our concerns and opinion. Please let our voices be heard.

Dear Planning Commission,
My husband Royce and I have lived in Country Club Estates for 29 out of our 37 years as Corpus Christi
residents and we wanted to write and express our strong to the proposed rezoning case 1220-03 before you
on Wednesday, Dec 9, 2020.
At the time of its formation on Sep 7th, 1967 the deed for Country Club Estates required all lots to be used
only for single family residential purposes with the exception of Lot 12 of Block 27 and Lot 10 of Block 49
which were specifically exempted as allowing church and related ecclesiastical purposes. After 30 years
this deed and its restrictions renew every 10 years unless a majority of the owners change the restrictive
covenants and file an amendment with the CountyClerk. To our knowledge (and that of City Staff) these
restrictions have not been changed and the neighborhood deed is still in effect. We are concerned that the
current city process is not respecting the deed or informing all 108 homes to which it applies as the
character of a neighborhood such as ours is not measured by a simple 200 foot radius around the subject
property. This deed is attached for your reference.
The city’s approved Comprehensive Plan in section 3 states that one of its’ primary goals is that “Corpus
Christi sustains and maintains established neighborhoods”. Our neighborhood has been established for 53
years and no agreement has ever been reached with a majority its 108 owners to change the intended use for
this lot. The proposed rezoning is also not in alignment with the Southside Area Development plan land use
map that was approved by our City Council as recently as March 17, 2020. Both of these misalignments are
noted by staff on Page 1 and Page 3 of their report but a simple amendment is not appropriate as these
documents were approved with intent to provide a consistent roadmap for decision making and planning in
our city.
Per Staff’s presentation, “ON” zoning would allow townhouse, apartments, offices, overnight
accommodation, and accessory uses such as restaurants and retail sales. The rezoning being submitted is
not dependent on an approved development plan and so your consideration for any rezoning needs to
include all possible uses, not just the stated intended use of the owner/developer at this time. We recognize
that their application references a 2-3 story office building but we find any use outside of Single Family
residential out of keeping with the character (and legal deed) of the existing neighborhood. This poses real
issues concerning privacy and an increase in noise and traffic for the surrounding homes and the adjacent
city park.
In summary and as you make your deliberations we would ask that you please consider carefully that this
rezoning application it not in alignment with our City Comprehensive Plan, not in alignment with the
Southside Area Development Plan, not in alignment with the deed and is definitely not in the best wishes of
either us personally or our established neighborhood.
Thank you for your time considering our opposition and your ongoing service to our community.

CAPTION:
Zoning Case No. 1020-02, Mustang Island, LLC.: (District 4) Ordinance rezoning property at or
near 7213 State Highway 361 from the “RM-AT” Multifamily AT District to the “RV” Recreational
Vehicle Park District and “CR-2” Resort Commercial District.
SUMMARY:
The purpose of the zoning request is to allow for the development a 90 guest room hotel having
4 stories and a total area of 64,160 square feet and allow for the construction of an RV Park north
of the road entrance. The rezoning case was heard by City Council on December 8, 2020 and
tabled to await artistic renderings of the proposed development.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The subject property is 17.034 acres in size. The subject property is currently zoned “RM-AT”
Multifamily AT District and consists of vacant property and has remained undeveloped since
annexation in 2001. Approximately, five acres will be for the development of the overnight
accommodation (hotel) use. The remining twelve acres will be for the development of the
proposed recreational vehicle park. Plans have not yet been submitted for the project.
Conformity to City Policy
The subject property is located within the boundaries of the Mustang-Padre Island Area
Development Plan and is planned for a Planned Development use. The proposed rezoning to the
RV” Recreational Vehicle Park District and “CR-2” Resort Commercial District is consistent with
the adopted Comprehensive Plan (Plan CC), compatible with the adjoining properties, does not
have a negative impact upon the adjacent properties, and is compatible with the Future Land Use
map. The City encourages expanded and additional recreation vehicle areas to serve tourists.
Rezoning of proposed resort commercial use east of State Highway 361 and in proximity to the
gulf beach should be encouraged. This will be the only RV zoning district in the city portion outside
of the state park between Park Road 22 and Port Aransas. Encouraging this zoning district will
open up commercial, retail and other amenities that would stimulate tourism. The City encourages
Rezoning a property at or near 7213 State Highway 361

CAPTION:
Zoning Case No. 0221-01, Adhub, LLC.: (District 3) Ordinance rezoning property at or near 502
South Clarkwood Road (Farm to Market Road 2292) from the “RS-6” Single Family 6 District to
the “IL” Light Industrial District.
SUMMARY:
The proposed use will be a development consisting of a warehouse with office and a multi-acre
improved storage-yard to store modular office structures.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The subject property is 30.77 acres in size. The subject property is currently zoned “RS-6” Single
Family 6 District, consists of vacant property, and has remined undeveloped since annexation in
1962. The proposed zoning is inconsistent with Plan CC and the Air Installation Compatible Use
Zone (AICUZ). The alternate recommendation supported by Planning Commission and staff of
"IC" Industrial Compatible District allows the proposed use, a maximum of height of 35 feet and
a screening fence/buffer while prohibiting uses that are inconsistent with the AICUZ.
Conformity to City Policy
The subject property is located within the boundaries of the Northwest Area Development Plan
and is planned for a Agriculture or Rural Enterprise use. The proposed rezoning to the “IL” Light
Industrial District is inconsistent with the adopted Future Land Use Map and the adopted
Comprehensive Plan (Plan CC). However, the proposed use does not have a negative impact
upon the adjacent properties. Although, the requested use of warehousing within the “IL”
District is compatible in a one-to-one ratio with the FAR requirements in the “IC” District, there
are many uses that are incompatible with the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ)
and Accident Potential Zone (APZ) Overlay. Incompatible uses include: Waste-Related
Services, Truck stop with overnight accommodations, Fairgrounds, and a Vocational, trade
or business school. By-products of some of these uses that are a priority to be aware of as
listed in the Naval Air Station-Corpus Christi (NAS-CC) Joint Land Use Study (JLUS) are
vibration, dust, smoke, steam, air quality, etc. The AICUZ Overlay over the subject property
Rezoning a property at or near 502 South Clarkwood Road
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Public Hearing & First Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting 03/16/21
Second Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting 03/23/21
has been established to protect the proposed runways that were included in the Corpus
Christi International Airport Masterplan (adopted 2007). The property is designated as per the
future land use as Agriculture/ Rural Enterprise. As per Plan CC, this land is intended to be
used for single-family homes on very large lots or associated with rural enterprise uses,
agricultural uses, vacant land that has not previously been developed, and small business
clusters that serve a rural population. The subject property is in the path of the proposed
runway. The proposed runway does not have a timeline for construction, and much of the
land is still under private ownership.

As part of the NAS-CC’s JLUS, the City created two new zoning districts to increase land use
compatibility around the runways. Those districts are the “IC” Industrial Compatible District
and the “CC” Commercial Compatible District. These new districts were intended for
properties within an AICUZ. An ideal zoning district for this use is the “IC” district. The
proposed use of warehousing is allowed a Maximum Floor to Area Ratio (FAR) of 1.00.
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) - Determinations of Hazards
The applicant is required to request a determination of hazards from the FAA for each
structure constructed on the subject property.
Plat Status: The property is not platted.
Utilities:
Water: 12-inch ACP line along the property on the west. A 48-inch CSCP line runs
through the property.
Wastewater: 10-inch VCP line along to the north.
Gas: 4-inch gas line located along the property on the west.
Storm Water: 43-inch line across South Clarkwood Road to the north. Stormwater
drainage ditches are available to the north and east.
Plan CC & Area Development Plan Consistency: The subject property is located within the
boundaries of the Northwest Area Development Plan (Adopted 2001) and is planned for
Agriculture or Rural Enterprise uses. The proposed rezoning to the “IL” Light Industrial District
is inconsistent with the adopted Northwest Area Development Plan. The proposed rezoning
is inconsistent with the following policies of the Comprehensive Plan (Plan CC) (Adopted
2016). The following policies should be considered:
• Protect the Corpus Christi International Airport by discouraging heavy industrial uses
from locating under flight approach zones. The primary airport approach flight path is
located over the Annaville/Calallan areas in a southeast-northwest direction. The plan
recommends residential and light industrial uses in these underlying areas. (Northwest
Area Development Plan, Land Use Policy Statement (h))
• Encourage orderly growth of new residential, commercial, and industrial areas
(Future Land Use, Zoning, and Urban Design Policy Statement 1).
• Promote a balanced mix of land uses to accommodate continuous growth and
promote the proper location of land uses based on compatibility, locational needs,
and characteristics of each use. (Future Land Use, Zoning, and Urban Design Policy
Statement 1).
Department Comments:
• The proposed rezoning is inconsistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan (Plan CC).
The proposed rezoning is also incompatible with the future land use and but does not
have seem to have a direct negative impact upon the adjacent properties.
• Although the requested use of Warehousing within the “IL” District is compatible in a one
to one ratio with the FAR requirements in the “IC” District, there are many uses that are
incompatible with the AICUZ Overlay. Incompatible uses include: Waste-Related
Services, Truck stop with overnight accommodations, Fairgrounds, and a Vocational,
trade or business school. By-products of some of these uses that are a priority to be aware
of as listed in the NAS-CC JLUS are vibration, dust, smoke, steam, air quality, etc.

• The AICUZ Overlay over the subject property has been established to protect the
proposed runways that were included in the Corpus Christi International Airport
Masterplan (adopted 2007).
• The subject property is suitable for the uses proposed by this rezoning.
• The property is designated as per the future land use as Agriculture/ Rural Enterprise.
As per Plan CC, this land is intended to be used for single-family homes on very large
lots or associated with rural enterprise uses, agricultural uses, vacant land that has not
previously been developed, and small business clusters that serve a rural population.
• The subject property is in the path of ta proposed runway. The proposed runway does
not have a timeline for construction, and much of the land is still under private
ownership.

CAPTION:
Ordinance adopting the Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan as an element of the Plan CC
Comprehensive Plan.
SUMMARY:
The Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan is an element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan, designed
to provide guidance and direction for future development and public investments in the study area.
The purpose of this planning effort was to identify strategies for improving the safety of the corridor
for all users (motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, transit riders, and those with limited mobility),
improving the attractiveness of the corridor, and fostering a thriving economic climate. As one of
the City Manager’s FY 19/20 Budget Initiatives, this project represents the City’s effort to
proactively plan for safe, orderly and attractive growth consistent with the community’s vision.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The City of Corpus Christi worked with urban planning consultants from Asakura Robinson to
create the Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan to identify opportunities to improve Northwest
Boulevard (FM 624) in the Calallen Area and guide future development.
The plan includes:
A community-based vision statement and goals.
Strategies and actions to achieve the vision and goals including conceptual drawings and
examples of suggested improvements.
An Implementation Plan summarizing the strategies and actions including time frames,
rough cost estimates, potential funding sources, and responsible parties.
An appendix containing the Assessment of Opportunities Report and summaries of
surveys and meetings.
Community input was used to create the plan. An Advisory Committee was formed, and the
committee met three times. Two online public meetings were held. Two online public surveys
were conducted – a Vision Survey and a Concepts Survey. Several individual stakeholders were
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
First Reading for the City Council Meeting of March 16, 2021
Second Reading for the City Council Meeting of March 23, 2021
Public Hearing on the Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan
consulted. Several community priorities emerged from the public process and are summarized as
follows:
Reduce traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard.
Preserve and enhance the business and commercial space.
Enhance beauty and landscaping in the area.
Improve bicyclist and pedestrian safety.
The project team used the results of community input to develop the following vision statement
and goals, which were reviewed with the public during the second phase of public engagement
and refined for the final draft plan.
The Vision: “Northwest Boulevard is Calallen’s “Main Street,” providing the amenities of a
prosperous neighborhood center in a small, tight-knit community. The Boulevard is a welcoming,
diverse, and family-friendly place where people go to shop, gather, invest in businesses, play and
raise a family.”
The Goals:
“Northwest Boulevard’s future is:
1) Safe, accessible, and easy for people of all ages and abilities to get around.
2) Prosperous, with a strong local economy anchored by small businesses.
3) Healthy for people and nature, with opportunities to be active outdoors.
4) Attractive and orderly, with new development that fits into a cohesive whole.”
For each goal above, the plan identifies six to nine strategies and actions the City and community
partners could complete to achieve the goals.
ALTERNATIVES:
The planning process, in general, involves the analysis of alternatives that are reviewed with the
community. The plan being presented represents the selection of the best alternatives for
improving the corridor.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adoption of the plan itself does not have a financial impact. While the plan provides
approximations of the cost of potential improvements, City staff and Council would review and
approve future actions with financial obligations needed to implement this plan.

INTRODUCTION
Why a Corridor Plan?
Thanks in part to a surge of industrial development in
the Corpus Christi metropolitan area in recent years,
the Calallen area of far-northwest Corpus Christi has
experienced new development. From oil refining and
transportation to steel production, the expansion in these
export industries is bringing wealth and job opportunities
to the region. With this investment comes development
pressure and demand grows for new homes, retailers and
services. The City of Corpus Christi anticipates additional
residential and commercial development, as well as a
new elementary school, in the Northwest Boulevard (FM
624) Corridor. Plans to build a new steel factory in Sinton
could drive additional demand for new housing and
commerce in Calallen. While new development creates
new opportunities for people to live, work and do business
in Calallen, it also brings new challenges, such as more
auto traffic, and more demands on critical infrastructure.
The Northwest Boulevard (FM624) Corridor Plan
represents the City of Corpus Christi’s effort to proactively
plan for orderly, attractive and sustainable growth and
development consistent with the community’s vision.
A Public Process
Meaningful public engagement has been essential to
the development of this Plan’s vision and priorities, and
the Plan successfully shifted in person engagement
online when COVID-19 presented itself in March 2020.
Throughout the three-phase planning process - in which
the project consulting team first gathered data, facilitated
visioning, and refined strategies for implementation - the
City of Corpus Christi provided multiple opportunities for
the public to express their ideas, hopes, and concerns
through numerous channels. These included:
• Two online surveys received a combined 590
responses
• One online mapping tool to identify issues and assets
• Two virtual public meetings
• Three Advisory Committee meetings
• Multiple social media announcements of surveys and
public meetings
• Multiple e-newsletter mailings through City of Corpus
Christi listservs
• Poster advertisements at bus stops within the study
area
Throughout the planning process, the City and
consultants engaged and interviewed numerous Corridor
stakeholders, from TxDOT and Calallen High School
leadership to developers and land owners. The City also
convened an Advisory Committee composed of public
agency partners, local business and neighborhood
association representatives, and major employers to
advise the City staff and consultants on development of
the Plan’s strategies and specific recommendations.
The Northwest Boulevard Corridor lies 20 miles upriver
from downtown Corpus Christi. The study area comprises a
500-foot buffer to the north and to the south from Interstate
69 to Wright Moravek Road (County Road 73) - nearly three
miles. The Nueces River bounds adjacent neighborhoods
to the north, while Interstate 69 presents a physical barrier
to the east. To the west and south, development quickly
transitions from suburban to rural conditions. The Wood River
neighborhood is north of the corridor, and major anchors
include one preschool, two elementary schools, one high
school, River Hills Country Club, Hazel Bazemore Park, Corpus
Christi Medical Center, and retail destinations including
Walmart and the Five Points Shopping Center.

Advisory Committee Meeting Public Input Meeting
Through compilation of the ideas, aspirations, and
concerns collected, several priorities emerged:
Reduce traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard
Participants repeatedly stressed the importance that the
roads should be more convenient for drivers, particularly
by mitigating traffic congestion and improving roadway
safety.
Preserve and enhance the business and commercial space
Participants especially desired more grocery shopping and
dining options, especially family-friendly establishments.
Many asked for access to businesses to be maintained,
and that they want commercial development to continue
to front Northwest Boulevard.
Enhance beauty and landscaping in the area
Respondents desire to improve area aesthetics with
proper landscape maintenance. Many desire easy-to-
maintain plantings, consistent sign regulations, and to
overall improve the attractiveness to visitors.
Improve bicyclist and pedestrian safety
Participants agree the study area’s roads should be
safer, more accessible, and convenient for bicyclists and
pedestrians. Many observed pedestrians walking along
Northwest Boulevard without sidewalks.

Off-road shared use trails are wide, raised, behind-the-curb paths that provide space for
bicyclists and pedestrians to travel in both directions along the path.
Buffered bike lanes are on-street bike lanes with a physical buffer, which may be marked
with pavement paint or incorporated vertical elements such as posted bollards, between
automobiles and bicyclists.
Bike boulevards are on-street bikeways in which bicyclists share space with automobiles on
low speed and low trafficked streets.

Elements of a Safe, Accessible, and Attractive Northwest Boulevard
Northwest Boulevard's wide right-of-way provides ample
room for building roadway design elements that improve
safety and accessibility for people driving, walking and
biking on Calallen’s “Main Street.” The diagram below
illustrates how many such features, which are described
in detail in the following pages, work together to create a
comprehensive, “complete street” that meets the needs of
businesses, residents, institutions, and commuters.

Transportation Strategies
T1: Reduce congestion at I-69
Goals:
Problem:
Reducing congestion along Northwest Boulevard,
particularly between Calallen High School and the IH-69
interchange, emerged as the clear top priority among
participants in the planning process; 47% of all survey
respondents cited traffic flow and congestion as “the one
improvement you’d like to see in the Study Area,” and an
additional 6% cited traffic light challenges specifically. 80%
“strongly agreed” that “roads should be more convenient
for auto traffic with less congestion.” People noted that
long back-ups accessing the interstate on-ramps form
during morning and afternoon peak periods associated
with school opening and dismissal times.
Solution
Several options are available to reduce congestion at the
historic “Five Points” intersection of IH-69, Northwest
Boulevard, and Leopard Street: reducing traffic demand,
expanding interstate throughput capacity, and expanding
surface street throughput capacity. The first option
has already occurred to the extent that the COVID-19
pandemic has increased working-from-home and virtual
learning. However, long-term success for the corridor
relies on students returning to classrooms and shoppers
returning to businesses. TXDOT is currently studying
opportunities to improve traffic flow and entrance and
exit movements on IH-69, which could reduce vehicles
queuing on surface roads to access the interstate. In the
Single-point urban interchange (SPUI), Phoenix, AZ. Source: Google Maps
FM624/I-69 Interchange. Source: Google Maps 51st Street Roundabout, Austin. Source: ASCE Texas Roundabout. Source: Mobility CC
short term, the City can work with TXDOT to redesign and
rebuild the Five Points intersection to more efficiently
move traffic.
Encouraging greater use of recently improved County
Road 52 could reduce demand during peak hours,
particularly for traffic heading south. Effective diversion of
traffic would eventually increase.
A Single Point Urban Interchange (SPUI) received broad
support from survey respondents as a potential innovative
solution. A SPUI condenses two signalized intersections
into a single intersection with one set of traffic signals,
improving efficiency and traffic flow. These are called
“urban” because they consume much less right-of-way
than other interchange types, such as cloverleafs.
Multilane Roundabouts – unsignalized, circular
intersections, offer a second alternative to the existing
intersection design. Traffic travels in the same direction
around a central median in two ore more lanes to
accommodate exits from the outer lane. Advantages
include the elimination of left-hand turns, which are
frequent causes of vehicular crashes ; reduced idling
during non-peak hours; and traffic calming. However, the
drawbacks make roundabouts less viable than a SPUI
– they consume much more right-of-way and can be
prohibitive for truck traffic. Numerous public comments
also suggested that motorists would not understand how
multilane roundabouts work, and that the new design
could cause crashes.
Regardless of the specific design intervention, the City of
Corpus Christi in the short-term should work with TXDOT
and the Corpus Christi Metropolitan Planning Organization
(MPO) to study alternatives to the existing intersection
design and function, identify a preferred design, and
allocate funding for design and construction.

T2: Improve intersections for safety and mobility
Goals:
Problem
Between 2018 and 2019, 272 crashes, resulting in 3
deaths, 4 suspected serious injuries, 12 crashes with non-
incapacitating injuries, and 60 crashes involving possible
injury occurred in the corridor. Three fatal collisions in the
corridor between 2018 and 2019 resulted in the death
of one cyclist and two pedestrians. Intersections are
frequent locations for traffic crashes. Every pedestrian-
vehicle collision occurred near an intersection (River
Trail Drive, FM 1889, and Interstate 69E). Numerous
survey respondents warned of the need to calm high-
speed traffic, particularly at intersections where existing
shoulders allow motorists to make turns at high speeds.
Solution
Reducing speed and improving visibility at intersections
are proven methods for making roadways safer.
Numerous intersection design interventions can
effectively calm through-traffic and turning traffic,

including high-visibility crosswalks, raised crosswalks,
curb extensions (also known as “bump-outs”), pedestrian
countdown signals, and roundabout treatments.
The concept map on pages 10-11 shows locations for
recommended priority intersections for these types of
traffic calming measures:
IH-69
Numerous crashes have occured at this major
intersection in recent years. The costs are measured
not just in human injuries and property damage but
also increased traffic congestion and use of emergency
response resources.
• Recommendation: Pedestrian countdown signals;
High-visibility crosswalk markings; Pedestrian refuge
island.
County Road 69
One mile west of IH-69, this signalized intersection is
the next north-south road to extend to County Road 52
and points southward, and therefore is an important
alternative route for westbound and eastbound traffic.
Northward, it serves Hazel Bazemore County Park and the
future Calallen Elementary School.
• Recommendation: Pedestrian countdown signals;
High-visibility crosswalk markings; Raised crosswalks;
Curb extensions; Pedestrian refuge island.
Farm-to-Market Road 1889
FM1889 is the next road to the west of CR69 to provide
a southern connection to CR52. The H-E-B grocery
company (landowner) has installed infrastructure at the
large, currently undeveloped parcel to the southeast, and
neighborhood retail and new housing are also planned for
the vicinity.
• Recommendation: Pedestrian countdown signals;
High-visibility crosswalk markings; Raised crosswalks;
Curb extensions; Pedestrian refuge island.
River Trail Drive, Riverview Drive, and East Riverview Street
These three roads serve the low-density residences
outside city limits to the north of Northwest Boulevard
between FM 1889 and County Road 73. They are each
two lane roads and their intersections with Northwest
Boulevard are unsignalized. Public feedback indicated
unsafe conditions making left turns from the roads onto
Northwest Boulevard eastbound. A fatal pedestrian
collision also occurred at this part of the corridor in recent
years.
• Recommendation: Roundabout or signal timed to
prioritize east-west traffic .

T3: Build active infrastructure along roadways
Goals:
Problem
75% of Visioning Survey respondents “Strongly Agree”
(53%) or “Somewhat agree” (22%) that “Northwest
Boulevard and area roads should be safer and more
accessible and convenient for people to walk or bike along
(such as by adding sidewalks, crosswalks, bike lanes,
and pedestrian signals).” Recent crashes involving people
riding bikes could have possibly been avoided if safer
facilities were in place to accommodate them.
Solution
Wide sidewalks and bikeways separated from vehicular
traffic are safer and more comfortable than the existing
roadway facilities, which consist of wide shoulders west of
Calallen High School, and narrow sidewalks immediately
adjacent to traffic lanes east of the high school. The City's
adopted Strategic Plan for Active Mobility: Phase 1 Bicycle
Mobility (an amendment to MobilityCC) provides guidance
for these types of facilities. Sidepaths are essentially wide
(at least 10’) sidewalks that permit shared use by people
walking or bicycling. These are recommended the entire
length of the north side of Northwest Boulevard within the
study area, and on the south side of Northwest Boulevard
from FM1889 to IH-69. On-street bike lanes separated by
a two-foot pavement marking – known as buffered bike
lanes – are recommended for less travelled north-south
collector roadways, including County Road 69, Riverview
Drive, River Hill Drive, and Wood River Drive. Shared lane
markings (“sharrows”) are appropriate on local, low-
volume, low-speed streets that are nonetheless important
connectors between destinations, sidepaths and buffered
bikeways. The City may pair installation of sharrows with
wayfinding and regulatory signage reminding motorists
that “Bicycles May Use Full Lane” (MUTCD Section
9B.06). The Concept Map on pages 10-11 illustrates
recommended locations for installing each of these
facilities.

T4: Coordinate with ISD to manage traffic demand
Goals
1 2 3 4
Traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard tends to
peak during school opening and dismissal times. Closer
coordination between the City of Corpus Christi, TXDOT
and Calallen ISD can help manage the flow of this traffic
and reduce the number of vehicles travelling to and from
campuses. This coordination began during the corridor
planning process and resulted in short-term actions:
• The City, ISD, and TXDOT will review signal timing at
Wildcat Drive and River East Drive for the opportunity
to prioritize predominant traffic movements during
peak morning and afternoon periods - particularly
during the 4pm rush hour.
• TXDOT is working with Callen ISD to produce a traffic
management plan designed for special events -
namely, football games and the exit of hundreds of
vehicles from Calallen High School at once.
Programs can reduce the number of vehicles needing
to access the school site for pick-up and drop-off. For
instance, parent volunteers and school officials can
organize walking school busses, in which parents and
guardians drop elementary school students a short
distance from campus, and students walk together to
school as a group. This program offers the added benefit
of increasing children’s daily physical activity. More

Land Use, Zoning and Business Strategies L1: Adopt Future Land Use Map Amendment
Goals
Problem
While the properties fronting Northwest Boulevard
between IH-69 and CR 69 are largely developed, large,
undeveloped parcels front the roadway west of CR 69. The
PlanCC Comprehensive Plan adopted in 2016 includes
a Future Land Use Map for the area, but the Northwest
Boulevard Corridor planning process has given the public
- and the Planning Division - the opportunity to focus more
closely on the Calallen study area.
Visioning survey respondents offered broad support for
various principles of new development. 59% somewhat
or strongly agreed that “the area should provide more
compact, mixed-use development,” while 79% somewhat
or strongly agreed that “the area should offer more
opportunity for jobs and for opening and growing
businesses. 91% said restaurants, including fast food, ice
cream shops, and sit-down restaurants, are appropriate
on Northwest Boulevard, and nearly 70% of respondents
said they are appropriate for side streets. Attracting a
full-service grocery store and more dining options was
the second most popular response to the question “If you
could do one thing to improve the Northwest Boulevard
area, what would you do?”
In response to two alternative future land use map
scenarios - in which one offers a uniform land use
pattern of residential uses set behind commercial uses
facing Northwest Boulevard of consistent intensity, and
the other proposes a mix of uses fronting the roadway
but varying from higher intensity toward the east to low
intensity toward the west - survey respondents frequently
cited support for commercial uses fronting Northwest
Boulevard, but to limit development intensity westward in
the corridor in order to mitigate traffic.

Solution
The proposed Future Land Use Map to the left responds to
each of the concerns and priorities described above to fulfill
the project vision and goals. It combines elements of the two
alternatives. This recommendation's intent is to provide only
for low-to-moderate intensity commercial or residential uses
in the corridor west of FM 1889. However, the Future Land
Use Map categories adopted in the PlanCC Comprehensive
Plan do not distinguish between low- and high-intensity
commercial or mixed uses. Therefore, policymakers
considering any proposed changes to the zoning of parcels
in this corridor should consult beyond FIgure 7 for guidance.
The new map proposes the following changes:
• Conversion of Commercial land east of CR 69 to Mixed Use,
to incentivize and provide flexibility for redevelopment of
aging commercial properties. The intent is not to encourage
exclusively residential development directly fronting
Northwest Boulevard.
• Conversion of low-density residential land east of CR 69 and
south of Northwest Blvd. to “Medium-density residential,”
consistent with surrounding residential land and more
intense uses of this segment of the corridor.
• Conversion of land south of the 500’ buffer from Northwest
Boulevard between CR 69 and FM 1889 designated “Mixed
Use” to “Medium-density residential.” This designation is
recommended over “Commercial” in order to allow flexibility
to proposed, large developments that include residential
uses as part of compact, mixed-use development. The intent
is not to encourage exclusively residential development
directly fronting Northwest Boulevard.
• Conversion of land fronting Northwest Boulevard between
East Riverview Street and CR 69 currently designated
“Commercial,” “High-density residential,” and “Government”
and undesignated land to “Mixed Use”
These changes result in a land use plan that allows flexibility
necessary for the private real estate development to respond
to market demand while respecting community priorities for
orderly development.
In addition to adopting the Future Land Use Map changes
described above, the City should phase public investment
into new site-serving infrastructure to areas south of the
Northwest Boulevard that currently lack them. Property
owners cited this absence of infrastructure access as a key
impediment to development of this area. This should be done
in coordination with planned improvements to the roadway
itself to reduce impact on existing businesses and residents.

L2: Relax zoning restrictions for businesses adapting to COVID
Goal
Challenge
COVID-19 has created unprecedented challenges for
small and local business owners who, due to coronavirus
restrictions, have temporarily closed or reduced services
offered. Businesses may have been able to capitalize on
temporary financial assistance programs to address gaps
in revenue, but as COVID-19 continue to threaten any
return to normal, businesses are finding it difficult to make
minor, temporary adjustments to their regular operations
due to City regulations, or to reduce expenses, such as
rent or utility bills. Meanwhile, the study’s participants
hold the Northwest Boulevard businesses in high regard
and value their small-town feel, while also enjoying the
diversity of restaurants, retails and goods, and services
the corridor offers. The area residents support strategies
that would bolster existing and future businesses,
especially restaurants and retail, likelihood of surviving the
pandemic.
Opportunity
Allow outdoor operations in parking spaces
City Unified Development Code 7.2.2 requires a standard
ratio for all commercial zoning districts; restaurants
have the lowest ratio at 1 off-street parking spot per 150
square feet of gross floor area. If businesses such as
restaurants and retail could extend their services to 50%
of its off-street parking spaces, restaurants would be
able to accommodate more customers while maintaining
social distancing. The City of Houston launched their
“More Space”1 program in August 2020, where at no cost
to the business owner, the owner can simply fill out an
on-line form stating its intention and proposal to meet the
program’s requirements.
• Corpus Christi City Code 38-232 restricts no more than
two food trucks on a private property. The City may
consider granting permission to increase the number
of food trucks in a parking lot as long as it does not
conflict with the 50% rule previously mentioned.

Collaborate with business owners to transform vacant properties/storefronts into entrepreneurship incubator spaces
Businesses may be faced with vacating their leases
due to reduced revenue over time. Temporary permits
for pop-ups and incubator spaces can be tedious and
cost prohibitive. To help facilitate temporary activations,
the City of Austin created a Pop-up retail Ordinance
(Section 25-1-364)3 that allows for issuance of temporary
Certificates of Occupancy. Permits can be issued for
up to 45 days and renewed once for a maximum of 90
days. This opportunity creates the flexibility needed for
entrepreneurs while helping bridge the costs of rent and
property taxes.

L3: When funding becomes available, continue to provide small business programs that target the long-term impacts of COVID-19
Goal
Challenge
Available public aid for small businesses and economic
opportunity has nearly all been distributed to Corpus
Christi businesses and organizations. Unfortunately, the
end of the pandemic is likely going to extend through
2021, which will continue to strain small businesses
throughout the city.
Opportunity
Create new marketing opportunities for area businesses, such as “shop local” discounts, regular small business “festival” events, etc.
A group of organized businesses can help create an ideal
condition for a successful commercial area, promoting
each other and contributing to events and special
discounts. Marketing and promotions can be an easy
first step with a direct impact of attracting foot traffic. At
minimum, the group can create a social media campaign,
place similarly branded flyers on doorways, and create a
discount program for frequent visitors.

Create a Public Improvement District (PID) that raises tax revenue for local improvements
After business has returned to normal post-COVID, a
PID can help the study area’s businesses upkeep public
infrastructure like medians and landscaping. Maintenance
was raised as a major concern, but beautification
of the corridor was a major priority as well. Costs of
improvements are paid entirely by property owners within
the PID who elect to be included- which is why the timing
of this strategy needs to wait for the economic conditions
to rebound after COVID-19.

Streetscape Strategies
Goals
No pedestrian or bicycling infrastructure
Hardscaped medians
Wide lanes
Limited safe crossings
Reduced lane widths
Figure 8: Streetscape Elements Diagram
Problem
Northwest Boulevard’s current design is incomplete.
It is characterized by multiple wide lanes in each
direction, hardscaped medians that limit left turn access,
few sidewalks, and few safe crossing opportunities
for pedestrians. The lack of options to walk on the
community’s “Main Street” limits opportunities for the
types of neighborhood-serving businesses for which
project participants voiced support. The lack of ideal
walking/biking options also results in residents using a
vehicle to get around, further increasing congestion and
traffic. Wide lanes in urban areas also encourage higher
speeds.
Solution
Northwest Boulevard enjoys a wide, 150-foot right-of-way,
and so building roadway design elements that improve
safety and accessibility for all modes of travel does not
require sacrificing vehicular mobility by eliminating traffic
lanes. The diagram on pages 12-13 illustrates how many
such features work together to create a comprehensive,
“complete street” that meets the needs of all users.
The guidance that follows should be relied upon to inform
the design and engineering of future improvements to
Northwest Boulevard.
S1: Reduce lane widths
Reducing lane widths discourages speeding while
preserving traffic flow capacity, and creates more room
for pedestrians to safely cross the street, such as at a
wide median, or a curb extension.

the Texas sun. Minimum 6’ wide planting areas located
between the back-of-curb and the sidewalk or sidepath
are recommended to accommodate shade trees approved
by the City’s landscape ordinance and TXDOT. Additional
trees may be planted on the outside of sidewalks and
sidepaths, between them and the property line.

S3: Expand and plant medians
Current medians serve access management purposes,
but could be reconfigured to provide safer crossings
and a more attractive streetscape. The U.S. Access
Board’s Public Rights-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines
(PROWAG) require a minimum six-foot wide median
to accommodate people crossing each direction of
roadway travel. Eliminating the existing striped buffers
provided for turning lanes, or narrowing lane widths, can
provide the space needed to widen existing medians and
build new ones that meet this width requirement. Such
medians should be designed with a curbed end cap to
better protect the pedestrian from head-on and U-turn
traffic while in the area of refuge. PROWAG standards
require detectable warning surfaces on each side of the
pedestrian refuge to assist the visually impaired or those
with disabilities..

Public attitudes toward medians are mixed. Many
participants in the first public meeting and respondents to
the Visioning Survey warned against investing in median
landscapes that the City and State are unable to maintain.
Others expressed desire to beautify the roadway by
adding plantings along the roadway sides and medians. In
response to review of three different median treatments -
“Shade,” “Ornamental,” and “Limited,” - a near majority (70
of 144, 49%) preferred Shade, followed by 44 (31%) who
preferred the Limited treatment.
Given funding constraints for maintenance, the City should
work with TXDOT to at a minimum plant drought-resistant
ornamental grasses, perennials, and wildflowers, which
absorb stormwater, beautify their environment. and require
minimal maintenance.

Custom branded street signs, wayfinding signage and
banners help create a sense of place and distinguish
a district. Respondents to the Concepts Survey
overwhelmingly supported (101 of 144, 70%) conceptual
designs for unique street signage that’s consistent with
the identity of the Callalen Independent School District.
Street banners, which typically adorn individual
streetlights or may be hung between separate fixtures,
even across a street, can supplement branded signage,
and be replaced more frequently to mark or advertise
seasonal occasions and events, such as festivals or

To support the long-term health and cohesion of the
Corridor as a distinct place to live, work and learn, the
City should work with the ISD, TXDOT, and community
to develop and produce a family of street signage and
banner typologies. Initial signage and banner installations
should occur toward the eastern side of the Corridor, at
intersections with IH-69 southbound, Wildcat Drive, and
County Road 69.

S5: Install Public Art
Public art is a way to bring creativity and interest to the
Calallen study area, and solidify its identity as a small,
tight-knit and family-friendly community. Public art should
be made by local artists that reflects local culture and
traditions. Blank walls on commercial structures make
excellent opportunities for murals, while prominently
located, publicly owned land is appropriate for sculptures.
75 of 142 Concept Survey respondents (53%) supported
this idea. Art locations are suggested at a variety of
strategic locations in the district in the concept map on

Funding the Plan
MPO/TXDOT Funds
A combination of local, state, federal and even philanthropic
funding sources will be necessary to fully implement the
Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan. As of the report's
writing, funding has not been allocated to support all of the
improvements and programs recommended in the Corridor
Plan.
TXDOT and the CC Metropolitan Planning Organization
have included $18 million in the regional Transportation
Improvement Plan (TIP) to expand Northwest Boulevard from
four to six lanes with a median, from CR 69 to FM 73, citing
traffic volumes and the roadway's designation as a Hurricane
Evacuation Route.
This Plan has documented several reasons to prioritize
funding for roadway improvements outside of capacity
expansion, including public desire to mitigate new traffic to the
corridor, and to fix existing safety and accessibility problems.

The meeting adjourned before panelists had the opportunity to answer all questions. Unanswered
questions are below with responses provided through this document.
How far out is the jurisdictional boundary of the zoning area going west on FM 624?
The City can only control zoning/land use within its City limits. North of Northwest Boulevard
(FM 624), East Riverview Drive is the western boundary. South of Northwest Boulevard, the
boundary is parallel to and approximately 1,800 feet west of County Road 73.
Have any of the developers personally been to our area?
Due to travel restrictions related to COVID-19, the planning consultant team has not yet visited
the study area in person but will do so in subsequent project phases when determined safe. The
planning consultant team does not include private land developers.
What is the total timeline for the construction?
TxDOT estimates that construction will begin on Northwest Boulevard from Country Road 73 to
Wildcat Drive in five to ten years. However, this estimate is subject to change based on future
funding availability and prioritization of regional projects.
When will Calallen get an H-E-B grocery store?
The City does not know the timing related to the opening of any new H-E-B stores.

Summary:
The purpose of the meeting was to share key proposed elements of the Northwest Boulevard (FM 624)
Corridor Plan with the community for their review and comment. Brianna Frey introduced Dan McGinn,
Director of Planning, and Annika Gunning Yankee, Senior City Planner, who welcomed attendees and
explained the project purpose and recognized Councilmember Everett Roy in attendanc e. Matt Rufo
followed with a presentation of a project overview, findings from the first phase of public engagement,
and draft proposed vision statement and supportive goals. Presenters then took a few moments to
respond to several questions. Mr. Rufo, Zakcq Lockrem, and Hugo Colon then presented a series of draft
transportation, land use, streetscape and landscape concepts, or alternatives. Following this
presentation, presenters responded to additional audience questions.
Q&A Part 1
• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni had a clarifying question on the goal: “Businesses can
receive support to recover from the loss of income” He specifically asked if it was from COVID
support funds or in general.
o Zakcq responded that that is referring to COVID incentives. He shared the when concept
plans are reviewed later in the presentation, it will offer more details on what that
means.
o Peter followed-up in concern that the language is very general and implies the
government is going to have subsidies no matter what or when; there are limited
resources. He states that they probably do not have any more funds and that they used
about $1-1.5 million already. He’s not sure if the goal is appropriate.

• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni asked if the trails/vegetation pictures used in the
presentation were in Corpus Christi and the project area specifically.
o Matt answered that the image was in Corpus Christi but was not in the project area. He
said they are examples near the area.
o Zanoni responded that he would not depend on pictures provided on the tourism
website, and he suggested finding pictures of a particular site in Hazel Bazemore Park.
• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni asked for clarification if the goal “Prosperous, with a
strong local economy anchored by small businesses” referred to which location specifically.
o Zakcq clarified it refers to the entire Northwest Boulevard study area.
o Zanoni suggested that the planning team should make sure that the local residents want
the area to be anchored by small businesses or would prefer larger businesses
anchoring the area.
o Matt clarified that residents did say they wanted small businesses as a priority from the
community survey. He did mention the desire for an HEB as one large business, but
many people shared a desire to preserve small businesses.
• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni asked how many people are on the call.
o Matt answered that 25 people were on the call, excluding the panelists.
• Question: a chat question asked if the planning team was disappointed that only four percent of
respondents were identified as small businesses.
o Matt answered yes, that the team would of course want to see more participation from
small businesses. He shared, however, that members of the Northwest Business
Association have been included in an Advisory Committee for the project and that
they’ll continue finding ways how to increase engagement for small businesses in the
community when they concepts come up for adoption.
• Question: is there additional housing included in the plan? What type of housing?
o Matt answered that the city does not plan to create its own housing, but will create
conditions for the private market to develop housing since the City’s role is to zone land
appropriately to permit housing where needed. He said that later in the presentation
they would go over the expected housing demand in the next couple of years from
population growth.
o Dan acknowledged there are some infrastructure challenges in the area. The city is
working with a developer just east of the corridor and just east of the NW Boulevard
area in response to the Steel Dynamics project because they know it’s going to have a
major impact in Calallen. The city anticipates housing will increase and is doing what
they can to help developers for only single-family housing now.
Q&A Part 2
• Question: there were questions on eliminating turn lanes and how that applies to customers
accessing businesses, including people already expressing concern because customers turning
left are already getting backed up turning on the boulevard.
o Matt answered the medians now are trying to cover several purposes, such as balance
flow through the corridor for thru-traffic access, but medians limit access. A lot can be
achieved by working with the interaction to make it easier to turn left or right, make a

U-turn, etc. He suggested roundabouts go a long way in helping with that and that
there is potential to reduce the number and length of medians if you’re making
intersections easier to navigate. He reminded participants that this is a TxDOT roadway
and that the city does not have the authority to do it, but reassured that if the Plan
reflects consistent resident support, it can go a long way with making a case for
changes.
• Question: there were questions about pedestrian crossways, specifically crossing to the
Walmart and Hobby Lobby plaza. How do we encourage pedestrians to cross at traffic lights
and not jaywalking?
o Matt answered that pedestrians are going to follow their most convenient route. He
shared that the school inquired about a pedestrian overpass. He said good pedestrian
infrastructure is necessary to preserve the safety with their convenience; he
emphasized enhancing the signalized interactions, curb extensions, high -profile
crosswalks, high visibility crosswalks, pedestrian countdown signals as pieces of
infrastructure the team is proposing at the signalized intersections. He said it can be
tricky for the long stretches of roadway between signals; there isn’t a commonly
approved way to cross six-lane roadways without putting something like a HAWK signal
that only turns red when someone needs to cross the street. He said that he wasn’t
sure there were many applications for that across a six-lane roadway in an urban area.
o Zakcq added that another challenge here is that there many cases of someone trying to
cross the street from one destination to another must typically walk another half-mile
to get to a signalized crosswalk, so he suggested that by human nature that if someone
is just trying to get directly across to reach their destination, they will naturally take
that route, even if it’s dangerous. The school and community college were examples of
this. Zakcq shared that the school is shuttling people between those two spaces. He
said that we need to think of human-understanding solutions for travel from one
location to another.
• Question: An attendee asked Matt to clarify that there will be turning opportunities in the
corridor to turn left.
o Matt shared that there will not be extending medians to block left-turn lanes. They
haven’t heard public opinion expressing a desire for that, so it is not on the table. There
are places where medians exist and they will stay that way. The design concepts
showing medians are those cases.
o Hugo added that the median will not go along the whole way because left turns are
needed for businesses, residential areas, etc. He said another reason why medians are
important is that in those areas where there are crossing, it can act as a refuge for
those crossing. Given that this is a six-lane road, the refuge is vital, but this needs more
study with TxDOT.
• Question: Can we add an RTA bus stop next to the Walmart?
Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan
Public Meeting #2 Summary DRAFT 8.18.2020
Page 4
o Matt answered that whether or not that can be done is something the team can relay
to the RTA. RTA is currently considering a change to the routing for the area, so instead
of going down Leopard Street, circling Five Points, and heading down Route 77
southward toward Robstown, the route would instead move westward and take a left
onto 1889, traveling south in that direction; then the reverse direction back up 1889 to
the right to Northwest Boulevard. This case presents the need for new bus stop
installations and sidewalk infrastructure to serve them. They are still studying this, but
the plan would improve pedestrian facilities, ADA-accessible, and provide safe crossings
through the roadway. He wasn’t sure where the suggestion was for the new bus stop or
what the challenges were with it, but the comments will be relayed.
• Question: if you expand the number of traffic lanes throughout the boulevard, what kind of
funnel traffic effect will it create at the current mess we already have at the intersection
69/624?
o Matt answered when we talk about the expansion of four lanes to six lanes, it’s going
to attract more traffic, which naturally happens when you provide more capacity. It
simply attracts more cars. If you’re looking to decrease traffic on 624 or slow the
increase, expanding does not help. That is a consideration if you’re weighing in on the
land scenarios. The uniform land scenario is one where six lanes make more sense
because preserving land uses to be less intense; it goes a long way to prevent six-lane
expansion.
• Question: What will be done to the intersection that County Road 69 and Northwest Boulevard
that is already backed up and will get worse when the new school opens?
o Matt answered is that the northern part of 69 will be widened to accommodate that
traffic. He brought up roundabouts as potential to support this. The intention would be
traffic calming and continuation while providing safety for pedestrians.
o Zakcq added that the congestion is happening during pick-up and drop-off. Schools
across the country and Texas have created plans to smooth that flow, such as airport
cell-phone weighting lots, one-way flows, and more. The team is examining this with
the schools.
• Question: there are concerns about maintenance for trees and landscaping for medians.
o Hugo answered there are ways around this considering planting intensity and
strategies for special areas to maintain just those areas. This would need further
study. He suggested more intensity can be just for prime locations, such as near
schools, so it doesn’t have to be along the whole corridor. In terms of watering,
they would focus on low-water, native plants. Some plants may not need irrigation
or only at the beginning.
o Zakcq added there are nongovernmental ways to adopt a highway or median that
can be evaluated.
• Question: the panelist said alternate routing was asked about, specifically if the team was
considering this or if TxDOT was interested in expanding them or find cross -town routes

(e.g., County Roads 52 or 73). The concerns were rather than expanding the Northwest
Boulevard, is TxDOT considering looking at othe r routes?
o Matt answered that 52 is a popular route. He asked Dan if there is no plan to
extend 52 westwards. Dan said correct, there is no plan for that. The county did
expand 69 to 1889 recently to provide relief from the highway; there is no plan to
go further west.
• Question: since most of the growth is west coming down 624, there is fear that the
beautification recommendations will not address growth outside the project boundary.
o Matt answered this is true. He said the city cannot control what is outside its
jurisdiction but can work with them about ideas they generally support based on
changing conditions, such as new industrial plants. The hope is that this is a plan
that guides future land use and transportation de cision-making; a tool rather than
concrete law. The plan can be amended as conditions evolve. This plan is intending
to capture the overall sentiment the team has received.
Additional Notes
• Matt and Annika invited attendees who did not have a chance to ask or have their questions
answered to submit their questions or comments over email.

Notes:
Welcome and Introductions
Presentation
● Discussion and clarification for the engagement timeline during the COVID crisis.
● Discussion and clarification about the plan’s goals, such as the land use component and
addressing the existing traffic issues.
● Discussion about upcoming projects along the corridor, including the HEB tract and
Country Road 52.
Group Discussion
● Discussion of ongoing projects in the area, including from TxDOT, the MPO, and
developers.
○ TxDOT is planning flyover enhancements to alleviate vehicle stacking. This
project has started and will add additional lanes through new striping.
○ The MPO and TxDOT are funding a separate feasibility study to examine
construction along the Northwest Boulevard corridor, but the State will be billions
short in tax revenues. Current expected timeline is 24 months
○ HEB owns a large parcel at Northwest Boulevard and FM1889
○ Calallen Retail Partners also owns adjacent land and plans to build apartments
○ A new elementary school is planned adjacent to the high school. This school will
let out at 3pm. 80% to 100% of students will qualify as bus riders.
● Discussion of specific traffic problems, such as certain choke points, peak traffic hours,
access management, and dangerous intersections.
○ Attendees expressed concern that any new development will exacerbate existing
traffic challenges
○ In general, the Boulevard has high traffic counts - carries about 33,000 vehicles
per day, comparable to Staple Street.
○ Country Road 52 was to alleviate traffic counts but has not performed as well as
intended
○ Right of way between I-69 and the high school is as wide as possible.
○ Access management
○ I-69 and Northwest Boulevard intersection:
■ Long delays at peak hours, and the problem is worsening. Current delays
can be up to 10-15 minutes and worse during school opening and closing
times.
■ Stacking regularly occurs at the northbound onramp to I-37 in front of
Chilis - TxDOT is examining alternatives to mitigate this traffic.
○ School drop off and pick up impacting traffic patterns - TxDOT works with
schools on internal traffic control plans to slow flow onto Northwest Boulevard,
such as through metering.
○ A couple hundred of the 1,200 high school students drive their own cars. Eight
buses drop off in the morning and pick up in the afternoon.
● Discussion of study area’s challenges, including the lack of available infrastructure for
future development, and drainage problems.
○ Continued sprawl of Corpus Christi residents moving outward will continue to
increase traffic numbers on Northwest Boulevard
○ Limited utility infrastructure continues to curb potential commercial and
residential development in the study area
○ The Boulevard has drainage ditches rather than stormwater drainage system,
and stormwater lingers in them for days.
○ The areas south and west of the Boulevard are served by two different water
districts.
○ The city’s development regulations require new development sites to have
detention ponds to prevent frequent and significant flooding
● Study Area Opportunities: Attendees named several amenities and facilities that could
improve quality of life for study area residents, including:
○ Pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure that connect homes to schools and open
space
○ Increased transit service, particularly for residents of the new Wood River
apartments at FM 1889
○ Practice ballfields (baseball) with lighting
○ Neighborhood bicycle/pedestrian connections to Hazel Bazemore Park
● Discussion of stakeholders that need to be involved in the planning process and how to
reach existing residents.
○ Attendees offered support to the project team in identifying study area
constituents to engage
○ Existing businesses and the Business Association
○ Neighborhoods and the Neighborhood Associations, including Wood River
neighborhood
Next Steps
● The project team is conducting a Needs Assessment over the next month and will have
a draft for presentation at the next Advisory Committee meeting.
● The project team is also working toward a project public launch and redesigning the
engagement plan in light of restrictions against travel and public gathering.

• Discussion on marketing the upcoming engagement
• Summary of Phase II outcomes (i.e., vision statement, supportive goals, development
ideas)
Project Overview
• Discussion on upcoming meeting and goals:
o 5/28 is first virtual public meeting. Marketing materials (e.g., flyers) have already
been created and will be shared
o Draft vision statement and goals will be determined following the meeting; draft
deliverables will be submitted to committee in July for public comment
o Judy: concern from the wording that there will be an emphasis on accessibility
(i.e., not ADA requirement, but feeling the word “accessibility” must explicitly be
in the goals). Multimodal and accessibility must vitally be reflected.
Matt shared that there will be engagement questions regarding top 3
words important to project, where such comments as these would be
highly relevant
o Mike P.: public meeting announcements must go out to NW business
association so that they have time to participate if interested. NW Chamber of
Commerce is suggested.
Phase I: Findings
• Discussion on Needs Assessment
o Poll on who received the reviewed the Needs Assessment.
o Attendees were skeptical of the traffic volume information shared:
Mike P. requested clarification on the lack of change in traffic volumes in
the last 20 years. Zakcq: traffic volume decreased significantly during the
Great Recession. Explained data from Figure 20 of the Needs
Assessment that clarified the different types of traffic changes.
o Clarification on zoning map changes:
Commercial #3 rezoned to residential? Site #3 is called Martin Plaza. It is
zoned commercial. It was recently subdivided into two commercial lots.
The subdivision plat application indicates urgent care is proposed at that
location.
o Attendees expressed concern on accessibility and public transportation for
vulnerable populations:
Judy: Pedestrian access will be needed for any added bus stops to the
corridor, especially connections to schools and apartments.

Gordon: Higher priority to increase flex service to grocery stores and
other key destinations. Would like to program the capital for ADA
compliance because some apartments are not served effectively.
Annika: Laura R. is a nurse, serving residents of low-income. Route 27
public transit would be especially useful for these underserved groups
according to Laura.
Mike P.: Impact on county roads have had on current traffic conditions
and routes, particularly how it may favorably impact conditions. On the
development and right on way maps, County Road 52 goes all the way to
FM 1889.
Phase II: Visioning
• Clarification on existing plans and investments:
o Comprehensive plan approved in 2016 provided new land use map
o TxDOT and CC MPO already approved $18 million for street infrastructure
improvements, but the designs from the proposal not approved yet.
o Jack T: Curb cuts as currently configured are essential to his businesses and
asked whether those changes would be made by this plan. Matt R. responded
that proposed guidelines may suggest improvements to future curb cuts but that
existing curb cuts from recently completed development will not be prioritized for
changes.
• Reviewed examples of streetscape mechanisms (e.g., wayfinding, bike racks, signage,
etc.) that could be implemented in the project. Other design enhancements reviewed
include public art/murals, pedestrian safety infrastructure, bicycling infrastructure.
• Discussion on materials available to advertise upcoming engagement opportunities:
o Public meeting will be 5/28 at 6 PM; website, flyer, and city press release/social
media are available about the project and meeting
o planning@cctexas.com email to respondents on marketing documents.
Commission and city council engagement will be in late August / early
September. Visioning survey and marketing materials provided in email sent in
the past week.
o Reviewed sections and capacities of visioning survey
Phase II: Outcomes

overview on the Transportation Advisory Committee’s efforts and concerns, and
confirmed the consultant team was looking at Vision Zero and the Active Mobility
Plan.
o Attendees supported the summary of survey findings.
Draft Vision Statement and Goals
• Discussion on Vision Statement and Goals
o Attendees expressed concern on the alignment of the goals to any upcoming
MPO work, and asked for clarification on funding and timing of MPO work.
Commissioner Vaughn expressed concern that this study’s beautification
efforts would not be reflected in future MPO work.
Charles asked for clarification on MPO funding because dollars have not
been allocated yet.
Craig clarified that yes, although the Northwest Boulevard/FM 624 has
been identified as a priority area, the Harbor bridge has consumed a
majority of the MPOs funding. 2025-2028 is a likely timeline for this
effort’s implementation. Clarified that federal funding is performance
based.
Zakcq highlighted this planning effort will hopefully position the corridor
well for federal funding opportunities.
Annika shared a story about a North Carolina community who formed a
Corridor Commission 10 years in advance of a highway redevelopment
project, to better align their community’s vision with future construction.
o Judy asked for clarification on what was highlighted in the survey results about
housing and affordable housing.
Matt explained the mixed results from the survey respondents. Most
agreed with the statement that anyone who works in the study area
should find housing options, but in another question a majority opposed
diverse new housing types. Housing is not addressed in the goals, but
the consultant team hopes to collect more nuance from the public in the
next phase of engagement.
• Draft Land Use and Transportation Alternatives
o Discussion of the transportation strategies
Attendees were supportive of the school improvement recommendations,
but asked for a more detailed recommendation regarding traffic patterns
after major school events, like football games.

• Artie described the illegal U-turns when attendees want to
redirect back east towards I-69.
• Zakcq suggested a more detailed phone call between the project
team, TxDOT, and the Schools.
o Discussion of the land use strategies
The group asked for clarification on if the plan shows residential south of
Northwest Boulevard, are we proposed the City would develop utilities?
• Matt provided explanation that no, the land use and zoning
recommendations would set the stage for private development to
build where the market is feasible.
o Due to time limitations, following discussion of zoning, small business support,
streetscape designs and landscape elements, the Advisory Committee was
asked to provide comments through email or through the upcoming online
survey.
Next Steps
• Concept plan survey will be posted the website during the public meeting and the team
is looking for as many respondents as possible.
o Action: Annika will share survey once it’s been presented at the public meeting.
• July 30: Public meeting #2
• August: Consultant team will refine preferred concepts into a Corridor Plan with
implementation tactics.
• September: Presentation of final report at public hearings.

Surveys and Results
Visioning Survey Summary | Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 1
Visioning Survey Summary
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan
Prepared by Asakura Robinson
July 15, 2020
Overview
The Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan process has sought public input on priorities for land
use, transportation, and streetscape enhancements. To this end, the City of Corpus Christi Planning
Division published an online visioning survey on May 20th, 2020 to gather input from area stakeholder.
The responses yielded the following top priorities:
1. Reduce traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard. Approximately 80% of respondents
strongly agreed that the roads should be more convenient for drivers, particularly by mitigating
traffic congestion and improving roadway safety.
2. Introduce more grocery shopping and dining options. Respondents shared a strong desire for
a grocery store and family-friendly dining options.
3. Enhance beauty and landscaping in the area. Respondents desire to improve area aesthetics
with proper landscape maintenance.
4. Improve bicyclist and pedestrian safety. Over 50% of respondents strongly agreed that the
study area’s roads should be safer, more accessible, and convenient for bicyclists and
pedestrians.
Disparities were shown in the representation of survey respondents, particularly regarding household
income. The survey showed a 15-percentage points gap in representation of households with incomes
under $50,000 in the study area. Further engagement efforts should therefore attempt to better achieve
representation from lower-income households.
Methodology
The survey encompassed 17 questions regarding respondents’ perspectives on the Northwest
Boulevard’s current landscape and desired and safety. It was open from May 20th to June 29th, 2020,
accumulating 435 responses in the open period. Surveys were made available online through a website
dedicated to the Northwest Boulevard project (https://corridorscc.com/). The survey was also advertised
at the first public meeting on May 28th, 2020, as well as on several social media platforms (e.g.,
Facebook. Twitter, Instagram, etc.).

Question 2: What makes the Northwest Boulevard area a unique and special place today? (n=327)
A free response format, this question gave respondents the opportunity to share their thoughts on the
study area’s greatest assets. While no specific prompts were given, a handful of consistent themes
emerged:
1. The study area enjoys a small-town atmosphere, yet has access to the amenities and services of a
big city.
o “Small town nested inside a city, with great potential for growth.”
o “The small town feel makes it special and the high school being physically central create
a focus on youth and young kids.”
o “Small town community "feel" and culture, with conveniences of being part of a larger
city.”
o “It has everything you could need while still maintaining that small town feel”
o “Small town” feel, but also has many restaurants, shops, etc. It is convenient for those
who live in the area so we don’t have to drive into town for everything.”
o “Away from the hustle and bustle that exists in other areas of the city. Like living in the
country but being in the city limits.”
2. The study serves achieves many purposes, meeting many needs in one space.
o “I use it every single day to go to and from my house and everything we shop is in the
same area!! It’s our lifeline.”
o “It has everything we need and nothing we dont. It's quiet, away from the city, and has a
great school.”
o “Various businesses, schools, and parks are all in a central area.”
o “The ease of getting to the area along with the surprising variety of places to eat and
shops to visit.”
3. The study area represents a small, tight knit community.
o “It’s a small community where people take care of one another. Going out you frequently
run into friends or family.”
o “The small town feeling. Everyone knows everyone. The fact a lot of the stores or
shopping is super close.”
o “We are a close knit community away from the main part of the city but close enough to
have all the benefits of a city.”
o “It is a tight-knit community, with almost everything we need within a stone's throw.”
4. The study area offers many businesses and shopping options to residents.
o “Business growth and a diverse population that reside there have made the areas around
Northwest Blvd a true melting pot with its own unique sense of pride and character.”
o “It’s a small town with some big and small businesses to keep me and my family happy.”
o “Still has small business, family-owned unique places. Friendly people with good
customer service.”
o “What makes it special is the amount of people who don’t live in the area that come to
visit and enjoy the small businesses.”

Question 3: What are three words you would use to describe your vision for the future of the Northwest
Boulevard area? (for instance: healthy, prosperous, safe, fun, family-friendly, welcoming, accessible)
(n=379)
The chosen words for vision regarded topics of safety, accessibility, economic development,
transportation, and culture. Over 20% of respondents identified safety as its main vision for Northwest
Boulevard. A desire for a family-friendly environment was clear as the second top word for vision.
Accessibility was the third most common word for a vision of Northwest Boulevard; based on the
feedback given in other questions, accessibility seemed to regard road accessibility in terms of traffic
conditions. It should be noted that several of the top words from respondents were given in the question
itself as examples, potentially acting as a leading question.

Question 4: If you could do one thing to improve the Northwest Boulevard area, what would you do?
(n=395)
Transportation topics collectively represented nearly 70% of responses as the one improvement desired
for Northwest Boulevard. Improving traffic flow and congestion was respondents’ top concern for
improvement with 47% of responses. Other transportation concerns discussed included traffic light
challenges (i.e., potential light synchronization issues in particular and the desire for more lights) and
safety for bicyclists and pedestrians. Regarding the latter, one respondent wrote, “Find a way to
accommodate foot traffic safely. There are too many walkers on the shoulders of the road. There should
be sidewalks a safe distance from the road and perhaps barriers to prevent road traffic from impeding
sidewalks.”
The second top choice for improvement was a need for a grocery store and more restaurants in the study
area. Other top desired improvements included a desire for more businesses and improving
infrastructure (i.e., in general, or specific mentions to burying power lines); government/city services
and healthcare regarded the desire for a larger police presence as well as a desire for a hospital in the
study area.

Question 5: Please tell us how much you agree with the following land use priorities. (n=432)
The two most supported land use priorities for Northwest Boulevard were:
• The area should offer more opportunity for jobs and for opening and growing businesses (79%
“Strongly agree” or “Agree”)

The two most opposed land uses for the study area were:
• The area should allow light industrial uses, such as warehousing, commercial food production,
commercial printing, commercial laundry, etc. (54% “Strongly disagree” or “Disagree”)
• The area should provide a wider variety of housing options for different types of households
(45% “Strongly disagree” or “Disagree”)
Respondents showed more mixed attitudes toward the remaining two land use priorities presented.

Question 6: What kind of housing needs are currently not being met in the Northwest Boulevard area?
What should be done to address them? (n=278)
The most common response was that Northwest Boulevard’s current housing market is sufficient (31%).
Respondents’ second most common sentiment regarded an unfavorable viewpoint toward low-income or
government housing (11%). Many respondents proposed housing options alternative to low-income or
government options: multifamily housing (10%), affordable housing in general (10%), single-family
housing (10%), and middle-class housing (8%). One respondent shared, “Affordable apartments or
townhomes that aren’t income restricted. Either you make too much or not enough, but rent is still high.
Not sure what should be done to address them.”

Question 7: Please add any additional thoughts you have about housing in the area. (n=205)
This question was a free response format for respondents to share their thoughts on housing in the study
area. The following themes emerged:
1. The study area lacks a variety of housing options.
o “There’s not much that meets the needs of the average working class or single income
families.”
o “Townhome options for senior citizens should be encouraged to build.”
o “Would be nice to have single living options outside of low income options.”
2. The study area shows challenges in affordable housing for residents.
o “Being someone who makes $50k/year, it was hard to find a house in the area I could
afford. If I could, it wasn't in the shape or neighborhood I wished to live. Renting an
apartment = house payment.”
o “Affordable housing options but with property standards to be kept. Nice architectural
features with clean and appealing aesthetic and colors.”
o “The city needs more affordable housing options and mixed used residential areas.”
3. The study area requires infrastructure upgrades in order to support new development.
o “Need to be able to walk on sidewalks from houses to school and businesses.”
o “It needs to be developed with sewer lines not septic.”
o “People want acreage and utilities.”

Question 10: Please add any additional thoughts you have about public and commercial development in
the area. (n=159)
1. Address traffic congestion and roadway challenges in the study area.
o “Need better roads to and from the area. Easy access to make it safer.”
o “Safer use for pedestrians and cyclists.”
o “The commute from FM 666 to IH 37 has become significantly more dangerous & time
consuming within the last 5 years. Adding more commercial businesses and
neighborhoods will only increase the problem. Please concentrate on alternate routes.”
o “This area has been neglected for too long and because of that there is an increase in
traffic accidents, traffic congestion, risky driving related to frustration and others driving
under the posted speed limit, which further causes congestion.”
o “Yes, there are several areas of concern with NW BLVD. The majority of the issues are
during commuting times and when Calallen ISD is in session. Again, my suggestion is to
expand FM 52 to a four lane with biking and sidewalks, not NW BLVD.”
2. Respondents want additional shopping, restaurants, and businesses in the study area.
o “More fun type restaurants for gathering with friends.”
o “Mom and Pop Main street type of business/local owners.”
o “We are a residential community and wish to remain so. Shopping and recreational
activities are welcome. Minimize industrial activities and high-density housing.”
o “We need more restaurants in the area that are more diverse.”
3. Respondents want a grocery store in the study area.
o “We need an HEB.”
o “Just hoping for more variety of food options or grocery options like for instance a meat
market.”
o “We need a large Grocery store.”
4. Respondents want development in the study area to be based on strategic decisions, such as
master planning.
o “There needs to be a plan. The plan needs to be enforced. Currently there is too much
mixed business/housing/office in the area that makes it less approachable for
shopping/eating than other parts of Corpus Christi.”
o “Commercial development needs to be spread out all the way down NW boulevard and
not just compacted at 5 points.”
o “Love the idea of development as long as it looks uniform to the are and traffic flows
well.”

resident population. One-percent of study area residents is Black, but the survey only received one
respondent that identified as Black; Asian respondents similarly were lacking representation in the
survey with only one respondent identifying as so while the study area shows one% of Asian-identifying
residents. The survey nevertheless seemed to closely resemble the racial breakdown of the study area.

Other Non-Survey Comments
Participants in public meetings and other engagement events were given the project managers’ contact
information to share additional comments through email. The following were highlighted quotes from
email feedback.
“I know we are very interested in seeing the bus stops extended into our area since the route seems to
stop near the high school presently. It would be nice to see it continue out to the Wood River area which
would give access to our church location and some of the services we offer.” – Grace United Methodist
Church Food Distribution (Emailed on 7/3/2020)
“While driving down the current road trying to envision the project. We do not want three more miles of
unkept medians and overgrown right of ways that the state of Texas only maintains on a semiannual or
quarterly basis. Nor do we want the overgrown median on Leopard St near Violet Rd or Callicoatte.
Which the City of Corpus Christi neglects. We’ve been forgotten for years don’t start something you
don’t intend to maintain.” (Emailed on 6/9/2020)
List of Traffic and Land Use Priorities (Emailed on 4/24/2020):
• What are the key issues facing the study area?
o Lack of east and west traffic carrying corridors.
o Please notice that Hwy 77 or I-69 has limited east/west penetrations at Northwest Blvd.,
County Rd. 52 and County Rd. 48. With minimal right-of-way extensions east of said
highway.
o Several large areas of residential infill needed to complete traffic circulation particularly
in the Annaville area.
o Limited land use growth opportunities to the north and south of the following major
corridors Leopard, Northwest Boulevard and IH-37. Limitations are due to several
factors: 1) Nueces River (Annaville & Calallen areas) 2) and more concerning the
encroachment and expansion of the Industrial districts in the Annaville & Tuloso Midway
areas.
o Air quality or lack there of in and around the Kane meat processing facility and
industrial plants. Solar Estates and Arlington Heights neighborhoods adversely impacted
with very poor air quality on most days.
• Assets and opportunities: What is important to preserve, protect, and enhance?
o Several large undisturbed natural areas in and around the Nueces River.
o City to continue making enhancements to West Guth Park (large regional park) More
tree plantings, water feature improvements, etc.
o Encourage Nueces County to make enhancements to Hazel Bazemore Park.
o More tree plantings, upgrade to facilities and park features.
• Challenges and threats: What problems need to be solved?
o Improve the traffic grid. Extremely limited east and west traffic corridors funnel traffic
loads onto Northwest Boulevard and Leopard creating a real traffic snarl at five points
and other intersections along said corridor and Leopard.
o City Engineering needs to improve many rural residential rights-of-way by building
proper curb and cutter and ADA compliant sidewalks. Many older residential
neighborhoods do not have sidewalks so there is no walkable connectivity.
• What changes are planned for the study area?
88 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor PlanNorthwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 89 January 2021 January 2021
Visioning Survey Summary | Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 17
o A new H.E.B. was forecast to be constructed but has yet to be built. This would seriously
relieve the over grounding at the both Walmart and current H.E.B. at Violet and
Leopard.
o County Road 52 or Cooperative Avenue improvements must continue to relieve traffic
pressures on Northwest Boulevard.
o Development of and east and west corridor in the Annaville area south of Leopard
between I-69 Corridor and Callicoatte Road, Violet Road, McKinzie Road and Rand
Morgan Road.
o Improvements to HWY 44 with new and under construction overpasses between Corpus
Christi and Robstown.
• What uses would you propose for new private development?
o City sale a portion or all of Labonte Park to private water park developeramusement
park.
o Development of additional grocery store opportunities. Both H.E.B. and Walmart
function as regional stores in an expanding food desert in this area of Nueces county and
Corpus Christi.
• What kind of public amenities and services are desired? Answered above.
• Who are the key stakeholders?
o Multiple Refinery Companies with terminals and facilities abutting and
o encroaching into planned residential areas.
o Nueces County
o City of Corpus Christi
o Engineering Department (traffic engineering)
o Parks and Recreation
o Code Enforcement
Transportation and Land Use Strategies Survey
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan
Prepared by Asakura Robinson
July 29 – August 23rd, 2020
The Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan process has sought the public’s feedback on
support, opposition, or other thoughts on 20 transportation and land use strategies proposed for the
Northwest Boulevard study area. The City of Corpus Christi Planning Division published an online
transportation and land use concepts survey on July 23rd, 2020 to gather input from area
stakeholders. The survey closed on August 23rd. The responses yielded the following key takeaways:
1. Strong support for the Vision Statement. Approximately 78 percent of respondents
supported the Vision Statement for this project.
2. Coordinating with Calallen ISD to mitigate school traffic (i.e., including one-way
drop-off and pickups, closing U-turns during special events, and organizing walking
school buses) is the most supported strategy out of the 20 given. Approximately 82
percent of respondents supported this strategy.
3. Agreement with Goal #2: “Northwest Boulevard is prosperous, with a strong local
economy anchored by small businesses.” This goal received 76-percent of respondents
support, showing the most supported out of the four proposed Goals for the Northwest
Boulevard study area. Some respondents left additional comments expressing a desire for
more information on the business incentives to allow for this goal.
4. Mixed feelings on the small business support strategies. The six small business
support strategies received a range of 25-64 percent strong agreement. “Create a Public
Improvement District that raises tax revenue for local improvements,” received the
strongly opposition (i.e., 28 percent collectively somewhat and strongly opposing).
“Create new marketing opportunities for area businesses” received the strongest support
(i.e., 87 percent collectively somewhat and strongly supporting).
5. Mixed feelings on currently adopted Future Land Use Map. Many respondents
express support for the future land use map, particularly for its flexibility on what could
be developed and the mixed-use (i.e., commercial, low and high residential). The
“Uniform” future land use scenario overall seemed to show more support, however,
compared to the “Transitional” future land use scenario.
6. Concern for roundabouts safety. Several respondents expressed concern that the study
area’s visitors are not educated on roundabout usage (i.e., causing more accidents). The
opposition was from this concern, but roundabout education was recommended by some.
7. Mixed feelings on public art and other aesthetics. About half of respondents supported
public art ideas. Opposing respondents expressed that public art funds be instead used to
address critical infrastructure needs before such aesthetics. Respondents shared similar
opposing sentiments regarding a gateway entrance and signage.
Summary of Question Responses

Assessment of Opportunities
June 2020
96 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor PlanNorthwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 1 January 2021 January 2021
This Assessment of Opportunities report
summarizes key findings from a review of existing
demographic, land use, and economic conditions
and recent trends. Among the noteworthy
takeaways are:
1. Study area residents enjoy higher incomes and longevity than the average Corpus
Christi resident.....................................................................................................................12
The median household income for the study area is between $75,000 to $99,999, much higher
than the median household income for Corpus Christi, which is $55,709. The average life
expectancy for the census tracts in the study area is 80.5 years, 2.5 years higher than that of
Nueces county and 1.7 years higher than that of Texas.
2. The study area is home to approximately 140 businesses and 1,450 employees....18
Businesses serving regional demand include banks, big box retail like Walmart and the Five Points
Shopping Center, fast food restaurants, restaurant chains, and medical facilities. Restaurants and
schools employ the most workers: 2005 and 200, respectively.
3. Residents spend over $120 million annually on groceries, general merchandise,
clothing, and health and personal care outside the primary trade area...................20
The current supply of grocery stores could double in number or size to meet just resident demand
within the trade area. Residents currently spend over $50 million on groceries outside the trade
area.
4. The study area contains 1.5 million square feet of vacant land zoned for
commercial uses .................................................................................................................22
Commercial parcels vary largely in size. The majority of commercial properties range between
20,000 and 60,000 square feet.A handful of landowners in the area own 56% of the available
vacant land ripe for development, or 29% of the entire study area.
KEY TAKEWAYS
5. Traffic volumes along Northwest Boulevard are similar in 2018 to those traffic volumes
collected in 1999..................................................................................................24
A steady, incremental increase of traffic volumes on Northwest Boulevard is expected based on the 20
year Average Annual Daily Trip (AADT) trends.
6. Three fatal collisions in the corridor between 2018 and 2019 resulted in the death of one
cyclist and two pedestrians...................................................................................28

Introduction
Thanks in part to a surge of industrial development in
the Corpus Christi metropolitan area in recent years,
the Calallen area of far-northwest Corpus Christi has
experienced new development. From oil refining and
transportation to steel production, the expansion in these
export industries is bringing wealth and job opportunities
to the region. With this investment comes development
pressure and demand grows for new homes, retailers and
services. The City of Corpus Christi anticipates additional
residential and commercial development, as well as a
new elementary school, in the Northwest Boulevard (FM
624) Corridor, shown below. Plans to build a new steel
factory in Sinton, if realized, could drive additional demand
for new housing and commerce in Calallen. While new
development creates new opportunities for people to
live, work and do business in Calallen, it also brings new
challenges, such as more auto traffic, and more demands
on critical infrastructure.
This planning study represents the City of Corpus
Christi’s effort to proactively plan for orderly, attractive
and sustainable growth and development consistent
with the community’s vision. The Northwest Boulevard
Corridor lies 20 miles upriver from downtown Corpus
Christi. The study area comprises a 500-foot buffer to
the north and to the south from Interstate 69 to Wright
Moravek Road (County Road 73) - nearly three miles.
The Nueces River bounds adjacent neighborhoods to
the north, while Interstate 69 presents a physical barrier
to the east. To the west and south, development quickly
transitions from suburban to rural conditions. The Wood
River neighborhood is north of the corridor, and major
anchors include one preschool, two elementary schools,
one high school, River Hills Country Club, Hazel Bazemore
Park, Corpus Christi Medical Center, and retail destinations
including Walmart and the Five Points Shopping Center.

Development History
The Town of Calallen was established in 1910 where
the St. Louis, Brownsville and Mexico railroad crossed
the Nueces River, and grew into a center for agricultural
trade.1 The initial settlement was located to the northeast
of the Northwest Boulevard study area, between what is
today Interstate 37 and the Nueces River.

The City of Corpus Christi annexed this area in the 1960s,
and annexed the majority of the Northwest Boulevard
study area in the 1980s and 1990s. Urban development
coincided with annexation; its peak development was in
the 1980s and 1990s, though many current structures
were built prior to annexation.

Previous Planning
As a primary artery serving mutliple institutional uses
in Corpus Christi's northwest, Northwest Blvd. has been
subject to numerous citywide, comprehensive, and long-
range planning efforts. They focus on the function of the
roadway, and emphasize the safe balance of user modes,
particularly east of FM 1889.
Plan Major Goals Relation to this effort Implementation Details
Bicycle Mobility Plan, CCMPO,
2018
This plan is Phase I of the Strategic Plan for Active Mobility under the CCMPO.
The major vision goals are 1) develop a cohesive, strategic network of bicycle
facilies that accommodates a diversity of riders 2) Increase the percentage
of trips of all types that are made by bicycle 3) Promote health and wellness
through bicycling and 4) Enhance safety for bicyclists. The plan methods
included developing a community hotspot analysis to determine demand
that was then used for bicycle route selection via network analyst reflecting
community preferences: 1) Off-road trail connections were prioritized over
routes that followed the street network 2) neighborhood streets and minor
collectors were prioritized over busier roadways and 3) streets that pass
through areas adjacent to activity centers were prioritized over streets that
run right through the heart of an activity center or through areas with a
very low concentration of destinations. Once presented and “tested” with
the community for feedback, specific bicycle infrastructure treatments and
facilities were then identified.
As Phase 1 of the Mobility Plan, the Bicycle Mobility
identifies street segments for bikeway infrastructure and
details what types of bicycle facilities are recommended
for each street segment. Community engagement informed
detailed mapping analyses to select routes and suggest
corresponding facility recommendations matching
stakeholder preferences.
This plan recommendations bicycle infrastructure along
Northwest Boulevard between Wildcat Drive and River
Hill Drive in the form of protected cycletracks on either
side of the boulevard located outside of the vehicular
traffic lanes.
Transit Plan 20/20, Corpus Christi
Regional Transportation Authority,
2016
A Five-Year Service Plan was developed based on the existing conditions
report findings and community engagement activities, including surveys,
according to the following themes: upgrades to southside services, more
frequent service on Leopard and Port, expanded Sunday service, more direct
westside service, Downtown/North Beach route improvements, increased
direct routing and frequency in Robstown, consolidated Port Aransas service,
expanded Express service, and improved speed and reliability, which are
organized within the report according to service types and are divided into two
implementation phases. Recommended improvements address service design
(i.e. direct routing, route alignment, route deviations, schedule simplicity),
established performance metrics (i.e. ridership productivity, passenger loads,
schedule reliability, schedule efficiency), and bus stops (i.e. accessibility,
amenities, real time arrival information, etc).
Transit Plan 20/20 includes recommendations to improve
current service after comprehensively analyzing the
strengths of the system and identifying gaps in service.
The plan includes recommendations that directly impact
Northwest Boulevard.
Transit Plan 20/20 includes recommended
improvements to Route 27, a portion of which operates
along Northwest Boulevard within the study area
corridor. The plan recommends rerouting Route 27
from the I-69 Access Road after looping around the Five
Points Shopping Center to Northwest Boulevard before
turning south onto FM 1889. The reroute will likely
create additional bus stops along Northwest Boulevard
and FM 1889, requiring pedestrian infrastructure
to connect these potential bus stops to the existing
sidewalk network.
8 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor PlanNorthwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 9 January 2021 January 2021
Plan Major Goals Relation to this effort Implementation Details
Mobility CC, City of Corpus Christi,
2013
Of the eight policies the plan establishes, the following are relevant to the
Northwest Boulevard Study Area:
Policy 1: Integrate street infrastructure that provides balanced transportation
options and design features into street design and construction to create
safe and inviting environments for all users to walk, bicycle, and use public
transportation.
Policy 3: Plan and develop a comprehensive and convenient bicycle and
pedestrian transportation network.
Policy 6: Provide children with safe and appealing opportunities for walking
and bicycling to school in order to decrease rush-hour traffic, and fossil fuel
consumption, encourage exercise and healthy living habits in children, and
reduce the risk of injury to children through traffic collisions near school.
Policy 7: Create safe routes to parks and open spaces.
This document is the transportation element of the city’s
Comprehensive plan. It guides decision-making pertaining
to the planning, design, operation and mainenance of the
city’s transportation networks. It “houses all transportation
related plans, including the City’s Thoroughfare Plan,
Trails Master Plan, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
Master Plan (formerly the ADA transition plan), plans for
the installation of roundabouts and road diets at select
locations, and plans for specific street corridors.”
The Urban Transportation Plan establishes roadway
classifications for the city’s streets, broadly categorized into
Local Access Streets, Collectors, Arterials, and Freeways.
The UTP identifies Northwest Boulevard as an “A3
Primary - Arterial Divided” urban street, indicating a
130’-wide right-of-way, up to 6 lanes of traffic, 17.5’ of
distance between curb and property line, and 30,000 to
48,000 maximum average daily trips.
HikeBikeCC recommends 10.26 miles of on-street and
off-street facilities to comprise the Nueces River Trail,
which would connect Northwest Boulvard to the river
via Trinity River Drive, River Walk Drive, and a drainage
corridor through the Wood River subdivision, and
eastward along the river’s south bank to Labonte Park.
Northwest Area Development Plan,
City of Corpus Christi, 2001
Relevant Policy Statements:
A) Environment. (A1): Maintain and/or improve water quality in the Nueces
River - The river provides 2/3 of the City’s drinking water supply.
B) Land Use. (B1e): The expansion of business uses along Northwest
Boulevard (F.M. 624) or any other arterial street should be planned and zoned
so that the traffic carrying capacity of the street is protected. West of County
Road 75, commercial uses on Northwest Boulevard should only be allowed
at arterial intersections. (B3): Encourage development of recreational vehicle
parks in the northwest area to capture “Winter Texans” traveling U.S. 77 (IH-
69). (B5): Development along all arterial and expressways will be required to
plant street trees on fifty-foot centers in a tree planting zone located within 10
feet of any property line abutting the street rights-of-way.
C) Annexation. (C1): Pursue annexation of property in advance of
development, particularly, along major roadways for the purpose of creating
compatible land use and development patterns. (C2): Prior to annexation,
develop detailed assessments of infrastructure and action plans for
improving and or replacing inadequate infrastructure in outlying substandard
developments. (C3): The City should aggressively pursue annexation of the
developing areas within the Nueces River watershed within Nueces County.
D) Transportation. (D1a): Relief of traffic congestion along Northwest
Boulevard (F.M. 624) and at the Five Points Intersection is a major focus of the
plan recommendations.
E) Public Services. (E3): Create a Nueces River Hike and Bike Trail system with
connections to the Oso Parkway system, and schools, parks and other public
facilities in the Northwest Area.
The Northwest Area Development Plan componnent of
the City’s Comprehensive Plan illustrates the decades-
long attempt to guide transportation and land use
development in an orderly manner that enhances quality
of life. Specifically, it names mobility improvements around
Northwest Boulevard designed to mitigate congestion of its
eastern terminus at the “Five Points Intersection.” Several of
these improvements remain to be funded and constructed.
This plan also indicated the community's desire to improve
the appearance of Northwest Boulevard through three
plantings.
PS D1 Recommendation a1: “Northwest Boulevard is
recommended as an arterial street with an ultimate 120’
minimum right-of-way, six traffic lanes, and a median.”
PS D1 Recommendation a2: “A two-lane 60-foot
right-of-way loop collector street (south of Wal-Mart) is
proposed between U.S. 77 and the extension of River
East Drive.”
PS D1 Recommendation a3: “County Road 52 is
recommended as an arterial street with an ultimate
100’ minimum right-of-way, four travel lanes and a
landscaped median.”

Resident Demographics
An estimated 11,000 people reside in the five Census
Block Groups adjacent to the study area, as of 2019.2 This
is an 8.3% increase since 2010, nearly 1% per year - just
under the city's rate of 9.8%. Population growth ranged
from 6.3% to 13.8% among the Block Groups to the north,
west, and south of the study area, while it declined 3.1% in
the neighborhood east of I-69.
The median age group of residents is between 35 and 44,
but residents ages 55 and over roughly make up almost a
third (32.3%) of the study area population. Comparatively,
in Corpus Christi, Nueces County, and Texas, residents
ages 55+ only make up about a quarter of their population
(27.7%, 28.1%, and 24.7%, respectively). The percent of
households with children is slightly higher than the county
average (43% and 36%, respectively).3

The study area is composed of predominantly white
residents (90.0%), of whom almost half identify with
Hispanic origin (46.6%).5 The median household income
for the study area is $87,253, much higher than the
median household income for Corpus Christi, which is
$53,614. The average life expectancy for the census tracts
in the study area is 80.5 years, 2.5 years higher than that
of Nueces county and 1.7 years higher than that of Texas6,
suggesting that residents have relatively high access to
public health resources.
The study area is majority homeowners (79%), and has a
slightly higher percentage of homeowners compared to
the city (70%). Since 2010, homeownership has decreased
by about 3% within the study area and citywide, likely due
to increases in multi-family development7.

Existing Land Use
The map in Figure 8 shows existing land uses within
the study area as determined for the 2016 Plan CC
Comprehensive Plan. The study area contains a wide
variety of land uses, including agriculture, low- to medium-
density residential, commercial, as well as many currently
vacant lands. Several civic uses such as schools, colleges,
and parks also reside within the study area.
Land Use and Market Analysis
The breadth of land uses indicate the importance of the
study area across a variety of stakeholders in addition
to the challenges of creating an attractive and unified
corridor that accomplishes the collective vision of the City.
The study area and adjacent neighborhoods have large
parcels of land not fully developed; which are currently
zoned as Farm Rural, Multifamily, Neighborhood
Commercial, or General Commercial.8

Current Zoning
Most of the land fronting Northwest Boulevard is zoned
General Commercial, which intends to provide "sufficient
space in appropriate locations for all types of commercial
and service activity, particularly along arterial streets
where a general mixture of such activity now exists."9
Neighborhood Commercial Districts are interspersed
among the General Commercial Districts, near the center
of the study area. These provide areas for commercial
activity such as sale of convenience goods and personal
services that primarily benefit nearby residential areas,"
and are usually have pedestrian access from nearby
residential neighborhoods.10
9 City of Corpus Christi Unified Development
Code, Section 4.5.1.D.
10 Ibid., Section 4.5.1.A.
A significant amount of land within the study area
and adjacent to the south and west is zoned Farm-
Rural, which is intended for land that is "relatively
underdeveloped and agricultural in nature." It is also "the
default zoning district for land newly-annexed to the City,"
and therefore subject to reclassification for appropriate
uses.11
Beyond the study area itself, most adjacent neighborhood
zoning is for residential uses - largely for single family
homes, but also including some multi-family classified
parcels.
11 Ibid., Section 4.3.1.A.
Future Land Use Designations
PlanCC, the City's comprehensive plan, establishes a
Future Land Use Map (FLUM) to guide development and
redevelopment for the next twenty years. It is not a zoning
map, but rather a guide for decision-makers charged with
making rulings on zoning and land use issues.
The vision of future development in the Northwest
Boulevard Corridor codified in FLUM is for a mix of uses
largely anchored by commercial uses. Government close
to the interstate (Calallen High School, Corpus Christi
Medical Center Northwest, and Del Mar College) remain
in place, while medium density residential comprises a
stretch of the southern side of Northwest Boulevard west
of FM 1889. A handful of parcels between FM 1889 and
County Road 69 do not have FLUM designations.
18 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor PlanNorthwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 19 January 2021 January 2021
Housing Stock
The neighborhoods adjacent to the Study Area are
primarily single-family residential. These neighborhoods
contain mostly single-family detached homes, but also
includes multi-family, condos, and the Windsor Calallen
Nursing home, which has 120 beds, or 60 rooms.
There is one recent multi-family development, the Calallen
Apartments, and one planned multi-family development
just south of the new Calallen apartments. There is one
planned single-family development, called River Ridge Unit
4. South of Northwest Boulevard, this proposed 136 lot
development sits north of County Road 52, east of County
Road 69, and at the extension of Riverside Boulevard.
Businesses
The study area is home to approximately 140 businesses
and 1,450 employees.12 As a commercial corridor,
commercial and retail businesses are located immediately
off Northwest Boulevard’s right-of-way, surrounded by
residential neighborhoods, and most of the corridor’s
businesses are clustered on the east side of the study
area, supporting regional demand from Interstate 69.
Businesses serving regional demand include banks, big
box retail like Walmart and the Five Points Shopping
Center, fast food restaurants, restaurant chains, and
medical facilities. Services and local businesses serving
the surrounding neighborhoods include local cafes and
restaurants. Restaurants and schools employ the most
workers: 2005 and 200, respectively.
Despite the high number of jobs in the study area
and adjacent neighborhoods (4,934),13 the majority
of residents commute elsewhere for employment.
Approximately 601 out of 4,558 employed residents live
and work within the study area’s adjacent neighborhoods,
resulting in 4,333 employees commuting into the study
area from other parts of the Corpus Christi area. This daily
inflow and outflow has a large impact on traffic, especially
during peak travel hours. More traffic analysis will be
discussed in the following Transportation Section.

Approximately 60,000 people live within a 15-minute
driving distance of the center of the Northwest Boulevard
study area, which encompasses the towns of Odem
and Edroy to the north, Robstown to the south, and
neighborhoods adjacent to the Leopard Street corridor
eastward to US Highway 358. Households within this
"primary trade area" had an estimated median disposable
income of $47,543 and total disposable income of
$1.28 billion in 2019. The population grew by over 5,000
since 2010 - an annual rate of about 1%. At this rate, the
population will grow by about 2,900 by 202414.
While the study area offers many shopping opportunities,
analysis of sales by retail category within the primary
trade area suggest that residents within the area are
leaving it to make purchases. These categories and their
leakage amounts are:
Food & Beverage Stores: $56.7 million15
This category includes grocery stores of all sizes,
specialty food stores, and beer, wine and liquor stores.
This figure represents about half of the total resident
demand for grocery purchases within the primary trade
area, meaning that the current supply of grocery stores
could double in number or size to meet just resident
demand within the trade area.
General merchandise Stores: $30.5 million
This category includes "big box" discount stores such as
Walmart, smaller "dollar" stores such as Dollar General,
and chain pharmacies. Each of these are found on the
eastern side of the study area. This represents 28% of
overall resident demand, indicating that existing general
merchandise stores meet a greater share of demand for
their products than grocery stores do.

Clothing & Accessories Stores: $19.0 million
This includes clothes, shoes, and jewelry. This amount
represents two thirds of total resident demand for clothing
stores. Thus, while the total leakage value is lower than
grocery and general mechandise leakage, this category
is comparatively less saturated within the primary trade
area.
Health and Personal Care Stores: $17.5 million
Trade area residents spend $36.5 million on health and
personal care stores, but study area retailers sell only $19
million in products and services, which means residents
are spending nearly that same amount outside the trade
area.
Some retail categories within the trade area sell more
goods and services than its residents consume. This
means people are traveling from outside the trade area to
make these purchases, indicating that these sectors are
already strong attractors, and do not require recruitment
to locate within the study area and meet residents needs.
These categories and their suplus sales amounts are:
Motor Vehicle & Parts Dealers: $139.5 million
Sales within this category are twice the demand among
trade area residents. The cluster of car dealerships along
the US Hwy. 77/I-69 corridorr south of the study area
contributes to the large supply of this category within the
primary trade area.
Gasoline Stations: $27.9 million
Trade area residents spend $64.3 million per year at
gasoline stations, yet area stations sell $92.2 million.
Restaurants: $14.9 million
It is common among trade areas that experience high
levels of commuters to experience higher restaurant sales
than area residents demand. This surplus may be the
result of commuters to the area's numerous employment
centers, such as schools and the medical center, going
out for lunch or dinner.

Commercial Characteristics
The study area has large parcels not fully developed;
roughly 1.5 million square feet is vacant parcels zoned
commercial (General Commercial, Neighborhood
Commercial, and Neighborhood Office). Commercial
parcels vary largely in size. The majority of commercial
properties range between 20,000 and 60,000 square feet.
Catalytic Development Sites
Catalytic development sites, indicated on the following
page, are located where development can fulfill city
and corridor goals, including job creation, improved
transportation and access, or new housing units.
A common issue that complicates development within
this corridor is the location of oil and gas pipelines. Some
pipelines are abandoned, but others remain active. The
unreliability of survey data adds risk and cost to upcoming
development.
A high level review of the following attributes were
considered in the analysis of land for catalytic
development viability:
• Existing zoning
• Proximity to higher traffic volumes
• Adjacent to development for cost-effective
utilization of existing utilities
• Size of site
• Adjacency to Northwest Boulevard

Land Ownership
Given its large amount of vacant land, the study area
is well-positioned to contribute to the city’s economic
development through the development of a live-work
environment. A handful of landowners in the area own
56% of the available vacant land ripe for development,
or 29% of the entire study area. 10% of the study area
is owned by the City and the Callalan ISD, and those
properties are already developed or have development
plans in place.

Transportation Analysis
Traffic Volumes
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) average
annual daily traffic (AADT) volumes for vehicles in the
Northwest Boulevard study area in 2018 are illustrated in
the map on the following page. Moving eastward along
Northwest Boulevard from County Road 73 to its eastern
terminus at Interstate I-69, the AADT ranges from 23,361
to 33,512 auto vehicles each day utilizing the corridor.
Auto traffic volumes are higher in the eastern portion
of the study area, as expected, given the proximity to
Interstate I-69 and concentration of intense land uses.
Two traffic count locations (E and F on Figure 20) located
along Interstate 69 have traffic volumes between 45,000
and 62,000 vehicles. Traffic volumes on roads terminating
onto Northwest Boulevard are lower; fewer than 10,000
vehicles currently travel on FM 1889 daily.
A 20-year trend analysis for the traffic count locations
in the study area indicates that the daily traffic volumes
along Northwest Boulevard are similar in 2018 to
those traffic volumes collected in 1999. FM 1889 has
experienced the most stable traffic volumes during
this 20-year period, with traffic volumes on Northwest
Boulevard fluctuating by as much as 10,000 vehicles per
day between the highest and lowest traffic volume counts.
Beginning in 2007 at the start of the Great Recession,
traffic volumes on Northwest Boulevard declined before
starting to grow again in 2010; in 2018 traffic volumes
on Northwest Boulevard were similar to 2007 volumes.
Traffic volumes have fluctuated widely along Interstate
69 in the study area, with traffic volumes doubling from
30,000 to over 60,000 between 2013 and 2018. Much of
this fluctuation is a direct result of construction-related
impacts on Interstate 69.
Pedestrians and cyclists are not included in this count; the

Strategic Plan for Active Mobility Phase 1: Bicycle Mobility
Plan includes case studies of cities that have conducted
bicycle counts and recommends bicycle counts be
conducted for performance measures.
A steady, incremental increase of traffic volumes on
Northwest Boulevard was expected based on the 20
year AADT trends. However, taking the evidence of the
decline of traffic in the Great Recession, it is unclear
how the COVID 19 crisis will impact long term trends
on the corridor. Land use changes that are expected
to contribute to the increase of traffic volumes include
the construction of restaurants and limited retail in the
western half of the study area at County Roads 73 and
69, in addition to a residential development west of FM
1889. The possible construction of a new H-E-B store at
FM 1889 and Northwest Boulevard would likely increase
traffic volumes along both segments.
Although there is no bicycle or pedestrian count data
available for this segment of Northwest Boulevard,
newer residential and retail and restaurant uses will likely
increase demand for biking and walking facilities in the
study area. Students living in the recently completed
Calallen Apartments at FM 1889 and future students living
in The Lakes at Northwest subdivision under construction
will need safe infrastructure for both traveling along
Northwest Boulevard and crossing the five-lane roadway
to access area schools on foot or by bike.

Transit
The Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Agency
(CCRTA) operates one local fixed bus route, Route 27,
serving a portion of Northwest Boulevard. Route 27, the
second longest route in the CCRTA system,16 runs from
downtown Corpus Christi westward along Leopard Street
and then south along the I-69 Access Road/US-77 to
Robstown multiple times daily. Route 27 also operates in
tandem with two Parks and Recreation services. One Park-
and-Ride at the Robstown Transfer Station in Robstown,
located at Avenue A and 4th Street, has a maximum

in Annaville is located between IH-37 and Leopard Street
immediately west of the Rehfeld Road intersection with a
maximum capacity of 75 parking spaces.
Both the southbound or outbound trips and the north
bound or inbound trips northbound and southbound
routes create a short loop around the Five Points
Shopping Center, which experiences high ridership,
utilizing Northwest Boulevard, Wildcat Drive, and Teague
Lane. Five bus stops serving Route 27 are within the
study area boundaries, with one bus stop directly along
Northwest Boulevard just east of Wildcat Drive. One of
the reasons why ridership is high on this route along
this segment is because Route 27 maintains the same
schedule and route alignment on the weekends instead
of consolidating the route or operating across a shorter
window of service.
The CCRTA Transit Plan 20/20 recommends changes to
the Route 27 alignment to “serve additional commercial

to FM 1889 to reach Robstown Station, rather than by

conducted with bus operators as part of the Transit Plan

Route 27, especially on weekend mornings,as evidenced
by standing-room only conditions.

Traffic Safety
Between 2018 and 2019, there were 272 collisions in the
study area corridor involving 579 parties. These crashes
resulted in 3 deaths, 4 suspected serious injuries, 12
crashes with non-incapacitating injuries, 60 crashes
involving possible injury, 188 collisions in which no one
was injured, and 5 collisions with unknown severity.
Mapping the locations of the collisions shows that the
vast majority of crashes in the study corridor occur east
of Wildcat Drive along Northwest Boulevard and along
I-69. When overlayed the curb cut locations shown in
Figure 29, the locations of these crashes correspond
32 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor PlanNorthwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 33 January 2021 January 2021
with the locations of driveways to the commercial and
institutional parcels along Northwest Boulevard. A survey
of corridor images shows that nearly every curb cut, or
driveway, lacks any directional signage in the form of
posted stop signs or painted stop bars for motorists,
indicating that drivers may not be yielding ample right-of-
way time before making turning movements.
Of these 272 incidents, 266 or 98% of collisions involved
only motor vehicles. There was one bike-related and four
pedestrian-related collisions with motor vehicles along
Northwest Boulevard, with an additional “no contact”
collision listed in the crash report data. While the overall
number of collisions involving both motor vehicles and
people biking and walking were low, these were among
the deadliest collisions. The three fatal collisions in the
corridor between 2018 and 2019 resulted in the death
of one cyclist and two pedestrians. The remaining two
pedestrian-vehicle collisions in the corridor during this
time period resulted in non-incapacitating injuries.
Every pedestrian-vehicle collision occurred near an
intersection (River Trail Drive, FM 1889, and Interstate
69E), with the former two pedestrian-vehicle collisions at
unsignalized intersections and the latter two pedestrian-
vehicle collisions at signalized intersections with marked
crosswalks.
The crash report data notes from police reports cited
that the contributing factor in every pedestrian-vehicle
crash was the “pedestrian [failure] to yield right of way
to vehicle,” indicating that safer, formalized pedestrian
crossings of Northwest Boulevard are needed for
pedestrians since 50% of these collisions resulted in the
death of pedestrians. The presence of sidewalks and
traffic signals is discussed below under “Pedestrian and
Bicycling Infrastructure.”
There was no contributing factor listed in the police report
for the bicycle-vehicle collision, although the driver was
reported as “going straight” along Northwest Boulevard.
News reports of the bicyclist fatality describe the incident
as a hit-and-run since the driver did not stop; the 30-year-
old victim was traveling south on Northwest Boulevard
before being struck at approximately 7:00 a.m. on a
weekday morning18. With a posted speed limit of 50 miles

per hour and traffic volume exceeding 30,000 vehicles
daily, any recommended bikeway for this corridor will be
either separated or off-street for maximum user safety.
Existing bikeway conditions are discussed below under
“Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure.”
Roadway Geometry
Between CR 73 and River Hill Drive (a 1.5 mile length),
Northwest Boulevard is 5 lanes across with two driving
lanes in each direction, a center turning lane, and a wide
shoulder on either side.
Between River Hill Drive and Wildcat Drive (1 mile length),
Northwest Boulevard retains two driving lanes in each
direction, with the center turning lane punctuated by
medians to protect left-turning drivers from oncoming
traffic.
East of Wildcat Drive (0.3 mile length), Northwest
Boulevard expands to three driving lanes in each
direction with a median-protected center turn lane. At
the intersection with Interstate 69E, there are three
westbound driving lanes and the eastbound traffic is
divided between one left-turn only lane, a shared left-turn
and through lane, a through lane only, and a right-turn only
lane.

Pedestrian and Bicycling Infrastructure
No sidewalks are present for most of the length of
Northwest Boulevard in the study area. Sidewalks are
present directly along Northwest Boulevard on the
northside between Calallen High School campus and
Interstate 69E and on the southside between Wildcat Drive
and Interstate 69E. The sidewalk on Calallen High School
campus is approximately six feet wide and separated
from auto traffic by a drainage ditch. This segment is the
only sidewalk in the study area corridor along Northwest
Boulevard that has any shade and this limited shade is
provided by the canopy of trees planted on campus.
East of Wildcat Drive, the existing sidewalks are
immediately adjacent to the roadway with no landscaping
or vegetative buffer between pedestrians and vehicles.
These sidewalks are approximately six feet wide and
cross at least half a dozen driveways on each side of
Northwest Boulevard with no crosswalk markings, painted
stop bars, or stops signs for any of these driveways with
the exception of Chick-fil-A, which has a painted stop bar
and stop sign at its driveway.
Residential sidewalks are present in the subdivided
neighborhood areas immediately adjacent school
campuses,The Lakes at Northwest on FM 1889 south
Northwest Boulevard, and the neighborhood south of
Northwest Boulevard and Calallen High School. There is
generally shade provided by trees along these sidewalks
except for The Lakes at Northwest since this is a newer
subdivision replanted with younger, smaller trees.
However, there is no direct pedestrian connection between
the neighborhood surrounding Wood River Elementary
School and the neighborhood adjacent Calallen High
School. Older students residing in the Wood River
neighborhood have no formalized pedestrian connection
to Calallen High School, which is approximately one mile
away for about half of the neighborhood.
Eight signalized intersections are within the study area: at
Interstate 69E, Wildcat Drive, River East Drive, FM 69, River
Hill Drive, FM 1889/Trinity River Drive, Wood River Drive,
and CR 73. Marked crosswalks serve pedestrians in all
directions at the Northwest Boulevard intersections with
Wildcat Drive, River East Drive, and CR 69. At the River Hill
Drive, a marked crosswalk serves pedestrians crossing
River Hill Drive on the north side of the intersection. At
the Trinity River Drive/FM 1889 intersection, crosswalks
are marked across Northwest Boulevard on the west side
of the intersection and across Trinity River Drive. The
intersections of Northwest Boulevard at CR 73 or at Wood
River Drive do not provide any marked crosswalks.

2 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
INTRODUCTION
Why a Corridor Plan?
Thanks in part to a surge of industrial development in
the Corpus Christi metropolitan area in recent years,
the Calallen area of far-northwest Corpus Christi has
experienced new development. From oil refining and
transportation to steel production, the expansion in these
export industries is bringing wealth and job opportunities
to the region. With this investment comes development
pressure and demand grows for new homes, retailers and
services. The City of Corpus Christi anticipates additional
residential and commercial development, as well as a
new elementary school, in the Northwest Boulevard (FM
624) Corridor. Plans to build a new steel factory in Sinton
could drive additional demand for new housing and
commerce in Calallen. While new development creates
new opportunities for people to live, work and do business
in Calallen, it also brings new challenges, such as more
auto traffic, and more demands on critical infrastructure.
The Northwest Boulevard (FM624) Corridor Plan
represents the City of Corpus Christi’s effort to proactively
plan for orderly, attractive and sustainable growth and
development consistent with the community’s vision.
The Northwest Boulevard Corridor lies 20 miles upriver
from downtown Corpus Christi. The study area comprises a
500-foot buffer to the north and to the south from Interstate
69 to Wright Moravek Road (County Road 73) - nearly three
miles. The Nueces River bounds adjacent neighborhoods
to the north, while Interstate 69 presents a physical barrier
to the east. To the west and south, development quickly
transitions from suburban to rural conditions. The Wood River
neighborhood is north of the corridor, and major anchors
include one preschool, two elementary schools, one high
school, River Hills Country Club, Hazel Bazemore Park, Corpus
Christi Medical Center, and retail destinations including
Walmart and the Five Points Shopping Center.

A Public Process
Meaningful public engagement has been essential to
the development of this Plan’s vision and priorities, and
the Plan successfully shifted in person engagement
online when COVID-19 presented itself in March 2020.
Throughout the three-phase planning process - in which
the project consulting team first gathered data, facilitated
visioning, and refined strategies for implementation - the
City of Corpus Christi provided multiple opportunities for
the public to express their ideas, hopes, and concerns
through numerous channels. These included:
• Two online surveys received a combined 590
responses
• One online mapping tool to identify issues and assets
• Two virtual public meetings
• Three Advisory Committee meetings
• Multiple social media announcements of surveys and
public meetings
• Multiple e-newsletter mailings through City of Corpus
Christi listservs
• Poster advertisements at bus stops within the study
area
Throughout the planning process, the City and
consultants engaged and interviewed numerous Corridor
stakeholders, from TxDOT and Calallen High School
leadership to developers and land owners. The City also
convened an Advisory Committee composed of public
agency partners, local business and neighborhood
association representatives, and major employers to
advise the City staff and consultants on development of
the Plan’s strategies and specific recommendations.
Through compilation of the ideas, aspirations, and
concerns collected, several priorities emerged:
Reduce traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard
Participants repeatedly stressed the importance that the
roads should be more convenient for drivers, particularly
by mitigating traffic congestion and improving roadway
safety.
Preserve and enhance the business and commercial space
Participants especially desired more grocery shopping and
dining options, especially family-friendly establishments.
Many asked for access to businesses to be maintained,
and that they want commercial development to continue
to front Northwest Boulevard.
Enhance beauty and landscaping in the area
Respondents desire to improve area aesthetics with
proper landscape maintenance. Many desire easy-to-
maintain plantings, consistent sign regulations, and to
overall improve the attractiveness to visitors.
Improve bicyclist and pedestrian safety
Participants agree the study area’s roads should be
safer, more accessible, and convenient for bicyclists and
pedestrians. Many observed pedestrians walking along
Northwest Boulevard without sidewalks.

Off-road shared use trails are wide, raised, behind-the-curb paths that provide space for bicyclists
and pedestrians to travel in both directions along the path.
Buffered bike lanes are on-street bike lanes with a physical buffer, marked by pavement paint or
incorporated vertical elements such as posted bollards, between automobiles and bicyclists.
Bike boulevards are on-street bikeways in which bicyclists share space with automobiles on low

Elements of a Safe, Accessible, and Attractive Northwest Boulevard
Northwest Boulevard's wide right-of-way provides ample
room for building roadway design elements that improve
safety and accessibility for people driving, walking and
biking on Calallen’s “Main Street.” The diagram below
illustrates how many such features, which are described
in detail in the following pages, work together to create a
comprehensive, “complete street” that meets the needs of
businesses, residents, institutions, and commuters.

Transportation Strategies
T1: Reduce congestion at I-69
Goals:
Problem:
Reducing congestion along Northwest Boulevard,
particularly between Calallen High School and the IH-69
interchange, emerged as the clear top priority among
participants in the planning process; 47% of all survey
respondents cited traffic flow and congestion as “the one
improvement you’d like to see in the Study Area,” and an
additional 6% cited traffic light challenges specifically. 80%
“strongly agreed” that “roads should be more convenient
for auto traffic with less congestion.” People noted that
long back-ups accessing the interstate on-ramps form
during morning and afternoon peak periods associated
with school opening and dismissal times.
Solution
Several options are available to reduce congestion at the
historic “Five Points” intersection of IH-69, Northwest
Boulevard, and Leopard Street: reducing traffic demand,
expanding interstate throughput capacity, and expanding
surface street throughput capacity. The first option
has already occurred to the extent that the COVID-19
pandemic has increased working-from-home and virtual
learning. However, long-term success for the corridor
relies on students returning to classrooms and shoppers
returning to businesses. TXDOT is currently studying
opportunities to improve traffic flow and entrance and
exit movements on IH-69, which could reduce vehicles
queuing on surface roads to access the interstate. In the
FM624/I-69 Interchange. Source: Google Maps
short term, the City can work with TXDOT to redesign and
rebuild the Five Points intersection to more efficiently
move traffic.
Encouraging greater use of recently improved County
Road 52 could reduce demand during peak hours,
particularly for traffic heading south. Effective diversion of
traffic would eventually increase.
A Single Point Urban Interchange (SPUI) received broad
support from survey respondents as a potential innovative
solution. A SPUI condenses two signalized intersections
into a single intersection with one set of traffic signals,
improving efficiency and traffic flow. These are called
“urban” because they consume much less right-of-way
than other interchange types, such as cloverleafs.
Multilane Roundabouts – unsignalized, circular
intersections, offer a second alternative to the existing
intersection design. Traffic travels in the same direction

around a central median in two ore more lanes to
accommodate exits from the outer lane. Advantages
include the elimination of left-hand turns, which are
frequent causes of vehicular crashes ; reduced idling
during non-peak hours; and traffic calming. However, the
drawbacks make roundabouts less viable than a SPUI
– they consume much more right-of-way and can be
prohibitive for truck traffic. Numerous public comments
also suggested that motorists would not understand how
multilane roundabouts work, and that the new design
could cause crashes.
Regardless of the specific design intervention, the City of
Corpus Christi in the short-term should work with TXDOT
and the Corpus Christi Metropolitan Planning Organization
(MPO) to study alternatives to the existing intersection
design and function, identify a preferred design, and
allocate funding for design and construction.
16 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan16 February 2021
T2: Improve intersections for safety and mobility
Goals:
Problem
Between 2018 and 2019, 272 crashes, resulting in 3
deaths, 4 suspected serious injuries, 12 crashes with non-
incapacitating injuries, and 60 crashes involving possible
injury occurred in the corridor. Three fatal collisions in the
corridor between 2018 and 2019 resulted in the death
of one cyclist and two pedestrians. Intersections are
frequent locations for traffic crashes. Every pedestrian-
vehicle collision occurred near an intersection (River
Trail Drive, FM 1889, and Interstate 69E). Numerous
survey respondents warned of the need to calm high-
speed traffic, particularly at intersections where existing
shoulders allow motorists to make turns at high speeds.
Solution
Reducing speed and improving visibility at intersections
are proven methods for making roadways safer.
Numerous intersection design interventions can
effectively calm through-traffic and turning traffic,
including high-visibility crosswalks, raised crosswalks,
Raised, high-visibility crosswalk. Source: Appleton Department of Public Works
curb extensions (also known as “bump-outs”), pedestrian
countdown signals, street lighting, and roundabout
treatments.
The concept map on pages 10-11 shows locations for
recommended priority intersections for these types of
traffic calming measures:
IH-69
Numerous crashes have occured at this major
intersection in recent years. The costs are measured
not just in human injuries and property damage but
also increased traffic congestion and use of emergency
response resources.
• Recommendation: Pedestrian countdown signals;
High-visibility crosswalk markings; Pedestrian refuge
island; street lighting.
County Road 69
One mile west of IH-69, this signalized intersection is
the next north-south road to extend to County Road 52
and points southward, and therefore is an important
alternative route for westbound and eastbound traffic.
Northward, it serves Hazel Bazemore County Park and the
future Calallen Elementary School.
• Recommendation: Pedestrian countdown signals;
High-visibility crosswalk markings; Raised
crosswalks; Curb extensions; Pedestrian refuge
island; street lighting.

FM1889 is the next road to the west of CR69 to provide
a southern connection to CR52. The H-E-B grocery
company (landowner) has installed infrastructure at the
large, currently undeveloped parcel to the southeast, and
neighborhood retail and new housing are also planned for
the vicinity.
• Recommendation: Pedestrian countdown signals;

River Trail Drive, Riverview Drive, and East Riverview Street
These three roads serve the low-density residences
outside city limits to the north of Northwest Boulevard
between FM 1889 and County Road 73. They are each
two lane roads and their intersections with Northwest
Boulevard are unsignalized. Public feedback indicated
unsafe conditions making left turns from the roads onto
Northwest Boulevard eastbound. A fatal pedestrian
collision also occurred at this part of the corridor in recent
years.
• Recommendation: Roundabout or signal timed to
prioritize east-west traffic. street lighting.

T3: Build active infrastructure along roadways
Goals:
Problem
75% of Visioning Survey respondents “Strongly Agree”
(53%) or “Somewhat agree” (22%) that “Northwest
Boulevard and area roads should be safer and more
accessible and convenient for people to walk or bike along
(such as by adding sidewalks, crosswalks, bike lanes,
and pedestrian signals).” Recent crashes involving people
riding bikes could have possibly been avoided if safer
facilities were in place to accommodate them.
Solution
Wide sidewalks and bikeways separated from vehicular
traffic are safer and more comfortable than the existing
roadway facilities, which consist of wide shoulders west of
Calallen High School, and narrow sidewalks immediately
adjacent to traffic lanes east of the high school. The City's
adopted Strategic Plan for Active Mobility: Phase 1 Bicycle
Mobility (an amendment to MobilityCC) provides guidance
for these types of facilities. Sidepaths are essentially
wide (at least 10’) sidewalks that permit shared use by
people walking or bicycling. These are recommended the
entire length of the north side of Northwest Boulevard
Sidepath. Source: City's Strategic Plan for Active Mobility: Phase
1 Bicycle Mobility

within the study area, and on the south side of Northwest
Boulevard from FM1889 to IH-69. On-street bike lanes
separated by a two-foot pavement marking – known as
buffered bike lanes – are recommended for less travelled
north-south collector roadways, including County Road
69, Riverview Drive, River Hill Drive, and Wood River Drive.
One-way cycle tracks – physically separated travel lanes
for people bicycling – on both sides of these streets may
also be appropriate if right-of-way constraints prohibit
buffered bike lanes. Shared lane markings (“sharrows”)
are appropriate on local, low-volume, low-speed streets
that are nonetheless important connectors between
destinations, sidepaths and buffered bikeways. The City
may pair installation of sharrows with wayfinding and
regulatory signage reminding motorists that “Bicycles
May Use Full Lane” (MUTCD Section 9B.06). The Concept
Map on pages 10-11 illustrates recommended locations
for installing each of these facilities, , supplementing
recommendations made by the Phase I Bicycle Mobility
Plan..

T4: Coordinate with ISD to manage traffic demand
Goals
1 2 3 4
Traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard tends to
peak during school opening and dismissal times. Closer
coordination between the City of Corpus Christi, TXDOT
and Calallen ISD can help manage the flow of this traffic
and reduce the number of vehicles travelling to and from
campuses. This coordination began during the corridor
planning process and resulted in short-term actions:
• The City, ISD, and TXDOT will review signal timing at
Wildcat Drive and River East Drive for the opportunity
to prioritize predominant traffic movements during
peak morning and afternoon periods - particularly
during the 4pm rush hour.
• TXDOT is working with Callen ISD to produce a traffic
management plan designed for special events -
namely, football games and the exit of hundreds of
vehicles from Calallen High School at once.
Programs can reduce the number of vehicles needing
to access the school site for pick-up and drop-off. For
instance, parent volunteers and school officials can
organize walking school busses, in which parents and
guardians drop elementary school students a short
distance from campus, and students walk together to
school as a group. This program offers the added benefit
of increasing children’s daily physical activity. More

Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 23 February 2021 23
L1: Adopt Future Land Use Map Amendment
Goals
Problem
While the properties fronting Northwest Boulevard
between IH-69 and CR 69 are largely developed, large,
undeveloped parcels front the roadway west of CR 69. The
PlanCC Comprehensive Plan adopted in 2016 includes
a Future Land Use Map for the area, but the Northwest
Boulevard Corridor planning process has given the public
- and the Planning Division - the opportunity to focus more
closely on the Calallen study area.
Visioning survey respondents offered broad support for
various principles of new development. 59% somewhat
or strongly agreed that “the area should provide more
compact, mixed-use development,” while 79% somewhat
or strongly agreed that “the area should offer more
opportunity for jobs and for opening and growing
businesses. 91% said restaurants, including fast food, ice
cream shops, and sit-down restaurants, are appropriate
on Northwest Boulevard, and nearly 70% of respondents
said they are appropriate for side streets. Attracting a
full-service grocery store and more dining options was
the second most popular response to the question “If you
could do one thing to improve the Northwest Boulevard
area, what would you do?”
In response to two alternative future land use map
scenarios - in which one offers a uniform land use
pattern of residential uses set behind commercial uses
facing Northwest Boulevard of consistent intensity, and
the other proposes a mix of uses fronting the roadway
but varying from higher intensity toward the east to low
intensity toward the west - survey respondents frequently
cited support for commercial uses fronting Northwest
Boulevard, but to limit development intensity westward in
the corridor in order to mitigate traffic.
Solution
The proposed Future Land Use Map to the left responds to
each of the concerns and priorities described above to fulfill
the project vision and goals. It combines elements of the two
alternatives. This recommendation's intent is to provide only
for low-to-moderate intensity commercial or residential uses
in the corridor west of FM 1889. However, the Future Land
Use Map categories adopted in the PlanCC Comprehensive
Plan do not distinguish between low- and high-intensity
commercial or mixed uses. Therefore, policymakers
considering any proposed changes to the zoning of parcels
in this corridor should consult beyond FIgure 7 for guidance.
The new map proposes the following changes:
• Conversion of Commercial land east of CR 69 to Mixed Use,
to incentivize and provide flexibility for redevelopment of
aging commercial properties. The intent is not to encourage
exclusively residential development directly fronting
Northwest Boulevard.
• Conversion of low-density residential land east of CR 69 and
south of Northwest Blvd. to “Medium-density residential,”
consistent with surrounding residential land and more
intense uses of this segment of the corridor.
• Conversion of land south of the 500’ buffer from Northwest
Boulevard between CR 69 and FM 1889 designated “Mixed
Use” to “Medium-density residential.” This designation is
recommended over “Commercial” in order to allow flexibility
to proposed, large developments that include residential
uses as part of compact, mixed-use development. The intent
is not to encourage exclusively residential development
directly fronting Northwest Boulevard.
• Conversion of land fronting Northwest Boulevard between
East Riverview Street and CR 69 currently designated
“Commercial,” “High-density residential,” and “Government”
and undesignated land to “Mixed Use”
These changes result in a land use plan that allows flexibility
necessary for the private real estate development to respond
to market demand while respecting community priorities for
orderly development.
In addition to adopting the Future Land Use Map changes
described above, the City should phase public investment
into new site-serving infrastructure to areas south of the
Northwest Boulevard that currently lack them. Property
owners cited this absence of infrastructure access as a key
impediment to development of this area. This should be done
in coordination with planned improvements to the roadway
itself to reduce impact on existing businesses and residents.

L2: Relax zoning restrictions for businesses adapting to COVID
Goal
Challenge
COVID-19 has created unprecedented challenges for
small and local business owners who, due to coronavirus
restrictions, have temporarily closed or reduced services
offered. Businesses may have been able to capitalize on
temporary financial assistance programs to address gaps
in revenue, but as COVID-19 continue to threaten any
return to normal, businesses are finding it difficult to make
minor, temporary adjustments to their regular operations
due to City regulations, or to reduce expenses, such as
rent or utility bills. Meanwhile, the study’s participants
hold the Northwest Boulevard businesses in high regard
and value their small-town feel, while also enjoying the
diversity of restaurants, retails and goods, and services
the corridor offers. The area residents support strategies
that would bolster existing and future businesses,
especially restaurants and retail, likelihood of surviving the
pandemic.
Opportunity
Allow outdoor operations in parking spaces
City Unified Development Code 7.2.2 requires a standard
ratio for all commercial zoning districts; restaurants
have the lowest ratio at 1 off-street parking spot per 150
square feet of gross floor area. If businesses such as
restaurants and retail could extend their services to 50%
of its off-street parking spaces, restaurants would be
able to accommodate more customers while maintaining
social distancing. The City of Houston launched their
“More Space”1 program in August 2020, where at no cost
to the business owner, the owner can simply fill out an
on-line form stating its intention and proposal to meet the
program’s requirements.
• Corpus Christi City Code 38-232 restricts no more than
two food trucks on a private property. The City may
consider granting permission to increase the number

Collaborate with business owners to transform vacant properties/storefronts into entrepreneurship incubator spaces
Businesses may be faced with vacating their leases
due to reduced revenue over time. Temporary permits
for pop-ups and incubator spaces can be tedious and
cost prohibitive. To help facilitate temporary activations,
the City of Austin created a Pop-up retail Ordinance
(Section 25-1-364)3 that allows for issuance of temporary
Certificates of Occupancy. Permits can be issued for
up to 45 days and renewed once for a maximum of 90
days. This opportunity creates the flexibility needed for
entrepreneurs while helping bridge the costs of rent and
property taxes.

L3: When funding becomes available, continue to provide small business programs that target the long-term impacts of COVID-19
Goal
Challenge
Available public aid for small businesses and economic
opportunity has nearly all been distributed to Corpus
Christi businesses and organizations. Unfortunately, the
end of the pandemic is likely going to extend through
2021, which will continue to strain small businesses
throughout the city.
Opportunity
Create new marketing opportunities for area businesses, such as “shop local” discounts, regular small business “festival” events, etc.
A group of organized businesses can help create an ideal
condition for a successful commercial area, promoting
each other and contributing to events and special
discounts. Marketing and promotions can be an easy
first step with a direct impact of attracting foot traffic. At
minimum, the group can create a social media campaign,
place similarly branded flyers on doorways, and create a
discount program for frequent visitors.
EXISTING PROGRAM
United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce Small
Business of the Day highlights a different business
everyday. Loca for Local's outdoor market is a local
example of a successful curbside pickup and online
ordering system during the pandemic with several
small businesses participating
Provide grants or low/no-interest loans to physically adapt brick and mortar stores
These can help fulfill safety standards to keep employers,
employees, and customers safe, including plexiglass
barriers, walk-up service windows, outdoor seating
and shade structures, and social distancing interior
modifications.

Create a Public Improvement District (PID) that raises tax revenue for local improvements
After business has returned to normal post-COVID, a
PID can help the study area’s businesses upkeep public
infrastructure like medians and landscaping. Maintenance
was raised as a major concern, but beautification
of the corridor was a major priority as well. Costs of
improvements are paid entirely by property owners within
the PID who elect to be included- which is why the timing
of this strategy needs to wait for the economic conditions
to rebound after COVID-19.

Streetscape Strategies
Goals
No pedestrian or bicycling infrastructure
Hardscaped medians
Wide lanes
Limited safe crossings
Problem
Northwest Boulevard’s current design is incomplete.
It is characterized by multiple wide lanes in each
direction, hardscaped medians that limit left turn access,
few sidewalks, and few safe crossing opportunities
for pedestrians. The lack of options to walk on the
community’s “Main Street” limits opportunities for the
types of neighborhood-serving businesses for which
project participants voiced support. The lack of ideal
walking/biking options also results in residents using a
vehicle to get around, further increasing congestion and
traffic. Wide lanes in urban areas also encourage higher
speeds.

Reduced lane widths
Figure 8: Streetscape Elements Diagram
Solution
Northwest Boulevard enjoys a wide, 150-foot right-of-way,
and so building roadway design elements that improve
safety and accessibility for all modes of travel does not
require sacrificing vehicular mobility by eliminating traffic
lanes. The diagram on pages 12-13 illustrates how many
such features work together to create a comprehensive,
“complete street” that meets the needs of all users.
The guidance that follows should be relied upon to inform
the design and engineering of future improvements to
Northwest Boulevard.
S1: Reduce lane widths
Reducing lane widths discourages speeding while
preserving traffic flow capacity, and creates more room
for pedestrians to safely cross the street, such as at a
wide median, or a curb extension.
30 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan30 February 2021
Enhance planting areas
Figure 9: Streetscape Elements Diagram
S2: Enhance planting areas
Beyond a comfortable sidewalk, shade is perhaps the
next most important street feature to people walking in
the Texas sun. Minimum 6’ wide planting areas located
between the back-of-curb and the sidewalk or sidepath
are recommended to accommodate shade trees approved
by the City’s landscape ordinance and TXDOT. Additional
trees may be planted on the outside of sidewalks and
sidepaths, between them and the property line.
Shade trees enhance sidewalk comfort. Source: Duplantis Design Group

S3: Expand and plant medians
Current medians serve access management purposes,
but could be reconfigured to provide safer crossings
and a more attractive streetscape. The U.S. Access
Board’s Public Rights-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines
(PROWAG) require a minimum six-foot wide median
to accommodate people crossing each direction of
roadway travel. Eliminating the existing striped buffers
provided for turning lanes, or narrowing lane widths, can
provide the space needed to widen existing medians and
build new ones that meet this width requirement. Such
medians should be designed with a curbed end cap to
better protect the pedestrian from head-on and U-turn
traffic while in the area of refuge. PROWAG standards
require detectable warning surfaces on each side of the
pedestrian refuge to assist the visually impaired or those
with disabilities..
Expand and plant medians
Figure 11: Streetscape Elements Diagram
Public attitudes toward medians are mixed. Many
participants in the first public meeting and respondents to
the Visioning Survey warned against investing in median
landscapes that the City and State are unable to maintain.
Others expressed desire to beautify the roadway by
adding plantings along the roadway sides and medians. In
response to review of three different median treatments -
“Shade,” “Ornamental,” and “Limited,” - a near majority (70
of 144, 49%) preferred Shade, followed by 44 (31%) who
preferred the Limited treatment.
Given funding constraints for maintenance, the City should
work with TXDOT to at a minimum plant drought-resistant
ornamental grasses, perennials, and wildflowers, which
absorb stormwater, beautify their environment. and require
minimal maintenance.

Custom branded street signs, wayfinding signage and
banners help create a sense of place and distinguish
a district. Respondents to the Concepts Survey
overwhelmingly supported (101 of 144, 70%) conceptual
designs for unique street signage that’s consistent with
the identity of the Callalen Independent School District.
Street banners, which typically adorn individual
streetlights or may be hung between separate fixtures,
even across a street, can supplement branded signage,
and be replaced more frequently to mark or advertise
seasonal occasions and events, such as festivals or

To support the long-term health and cohesion of the
Corridor as a distinct place to live, work and learn, the
City should work with the ISD, TXDOT, and community
to develop and produce a family of street signage and
banner typologies. Initial signage and banner installations
should occur toward the eastern side of the Corridor, at
intersections with IH-69 southbound, Wildcat Drive, and
County Road 69.

S5: Install Public Art
Public art is a way to bring creativity and interest to the
Calallen study area, and solidify its identity as a small,
tight-knit and family-friendly community. Public art should
be made by local artists that reflects local culture and
traditions. Blank walls on commercial structures make
excellent opportunities for murals, while prominently
located, publicly owned land is appropriate for sculptures.
75 of 142 Concept Survey respondents (53%) supported
this idea. Art locations are suggested at a variety of
strategic locations in the district in the concept map on
pages 10-11.

Funding the Plan
MPO/TXDOT Funds
A combination of local, state, federal and even philanthropic
funding sources will be necessary to fully implement the
Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan. As of the report's
writing, funding has not been allocated to support all of the
improvements and programs recommended in the Corridor
Plan.
TXDOT and the CC Metropolitan Planning Organization have
programmed $18 million in the regional Transportation
Improvement Plan (TIP) to expand Northwest Boulevard from
four to six lanes with a median, from CR 69 to FM 73, citing
traffic volumes and the roadway's designation as a Hurricane
Evacuation Route. The prospective timeframe for this $18
million programming is 2031.
This Plan has documented several reasons to prioritize
funding for roadway improvements outside of capacity
expansion, including public desire to mitigate new traffic to the
corridor, and to fix existing safety and accessibility problems.

The meeting adjourned before panelists had the opportunity to answer all questions. Unanswered
questions are below with responses provided through this document.
How far out is the jurisdictional boundary of the zoning area going west on FM 624?
The City can only control zoning/land use within its City limits. North of Northwest Boulevard
(FM 624), East Riverview Drive is the western boundary. South of Northwest Boulevard, the
boundary is parallel to and approximately 1,800 feet west of County Road 73.
Have any of the developers personally been to our area?
Due to travel restrictions related to COVID-19, the planning consultant team has not yet visited
the study area in person but will do so in subsequent project phases when determined safe. The
planning consultant team does not include private land developers.
What is the total timeline for the construction?
TxDOT estimates that construction will begin on Northwest Boulevard from Country Road 73 to
Wildcat Drive in five to ten years. However, this estimate is subject to change based on future
funding availability and prioritization of regional projects.
When will Calallen get an H-E-B grocery store?
The City does not know the timing related to the opening of any new H-E-B stores.

Summary:
The purpose of the meeting was to share key proposed elements of the Northwest Boulevard (FM 624)
Corridor Plan with the community for their review and comment. Brianna Frey introduced Dan McGinn,
Director of Planning, and Annika Gunning Yankee, Senior City Planner, who welcomed attendees and
explained the project purpose and recognized Councilmember Everett Roy in attendanc e. Matt Rufo
followed with a presentation of a project overview, findings from the first phase of public engagement,
and draft proposed vision statement and supportive goals. Presenters then took a few moments to
respond to several questions. Mr. Rufo, Zakcq Lockrem, and Hugo Colon then presented a series of draft
transportation, land use, streetscape and landscape concepts, or alternatives. Following this
presentation, presenters responded to additional audience questions.
Q&A Part 1
• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni had a clarifying question on the goal: “Businesses can
receive support to recover from the loss of income” He specifically asked if it was from COVID
support funds or in general.
o Zakcq responded that that is referring to COVID incentives. He shared the when concept
plans are reviewed later in the presentation, it will offer more details on what that
means.
o Peter followed-up in concern that the language is very general and implies the
government is going to have subsidies no matter what or when; there are limited
resources. He states that they probably do not have any more funds and that they used
about $1-1.5 million already. He’s not sure if the goal is appropriate.

• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni asked if the trails/vegetation pictures used in the
presentation were in Corpus Christi and the project area specifically.
o Matt answered that the image was in Corpus Christi but was not in the project area. He
said they are examples near the area.
o Zanoni responded that he would not depend on pictures provided on the tourism
website, and he suggested finding pictures of a particular site in Hazel Bazemore Park.
• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni asked for clarification if the goal “Prosperous, with a
strong local economy anchored by small businesses” referred to which location specifically.
o Zakcq clarified it refers to the entire Northwest Boulevard study area.
o Zanoni suggested that the planning team should make sure that the local residents want
the area to be anchored by small businesses or would prefer larger businesses
anchoring the area.
o Matt clarified that residents did say they wanted small businesses as a priority from the
community survey. He did mention the desire for an HEB as one large business, but
many people shared a desire to preserve small businesses.
• Question: City Manager Peter Zanoni asked how many people are on the call.
o Matt answered that 25 people were on the call, excluding the panelists.
• Question: a chat question asked if the planning team was disappointed that only four percent of
respondents were identified as small businesses.
o Matt answered yes, that the team would of course want to see more participation from
small businesses. He shared, however, that members of the Northwest Business
Association have been included in an Advisory Committee for the project and that
they’ll continue finding ways how to increase engagement for small businesses in the
community when they concepts come up for adoption.
• Question: is there additional housing included in the plan? What type of housing?
o Matt answered that the city does not plan to create its own housing, but will create
conditions for the private market to develop housing since the City’s role is to zone land
appropriately to permit housing where needed. He said that later in the presentation
they would go over the expected housing demand in the next couple of years from
population growth.
o Dan acknowledged there are some infrastructure challenges in the area. The city is
working with a developer just east of the corridor and just east of the NW Boulevard
area in response to the Steel Dynamics project because they know it’s going to have a
major impact in Calallen. The city anticipates housing will increase and is doing what
they can to help developers for only single-family housing now.
Q&A Part 2
• Question: there were questions on eliminating turn lanes and how that applies to customers
accessing businesses, including people already expressing concern because customers turning
left are already getting backed up turning on the boulevard.
o Matt answered the medians now are trying to cover several purposes, such as balance
flow through the corridor for thru-traffic access, but medians limit access. A lot can be
achieved by working with the interaction to make it easier to turn left or right, make a
60 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan
Public Meeting #2 Summary DRAFT 8.18.2020
Page 3
U-turn, etc. He suggested roundabouts go a long way in helping with that and that
there is potential to reduce the number and length of medians if you’re making
intersections easier to navigate. He reminded participants that this is a TxDOT roadway
and that the city does not have the authority to do it, but reassured that if the Plan
reflects consistent resident support, it can go a long way with making a case for
changes.
• Question: there were questions about pedestrian crossways, specifically crossing to the
Walmart and Hobby Lobby plaza. How do we encourage pedestrians to cross at traffic lights
and not jaywalking?
o Matt answered that pedestrians are going to follow their most convenient route. He
shared that the school inquired about a pedestrian overpass. He said good pedestrian
infrastructure is necessary to preserve the safety with their convenience; he
emphasized enhancing the signalized interactions, curb extensions, high -profile
crosswalks, high visibility crosswalks, pedestrian countdown signals as pieces of
infrastructure the team is proposing at the signalized intersections. He said it can be
tricky for the long stretches of roadway between signals; there isn’t a commonly
approved way to cross six-lane roadways without putting something like a HAWK signal
that only turns red when someone needs to cross the street. He said that he wasn’t
sure there were many applications for that across a six-lane roadway in an urban area.
o Zakcq added that another challenge here is that there many cases of someone trying to
cross the street from one destination to another must typically walk another half-mile
to get to a signalized crosswalk, so he suggested that by human nature that if someone
is just trying to get directly across to reach their destination, they will naturally take
that route, even if it’s dangerous. The school and community college were examples of
this. Zakcq shared that the school is shuttling people between those two spaces. He
said that we need to think of human-understanding solutions for travel from one
location to another.
• Question: An attendee asked Matt to clarify that there will be turning opportunities in the
corridor to turn left.
o Matt shared that there will not be extending medians to block left-turn lanes. They
haven’t heard public opinion expressing a desire for that, so it is not on the table. There
are places where medians exist and they will stay that way. The design concepts
showing medians are those cases.
o Hugo added that the median will not go along the whole way because left turns are
needed for businesses, residential areas, etc. He said another reason why medians are
important is that in those areas where there are crossing, it can act as a refuge for
those crossing. Given that this is a six-lane road, the refuge is vital, but this needs more
study with TxDOT.
• Question: Can we add an RTA bus stop next to the Walmart?
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 61 February 2021
Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan
Public Meeting #2 Summary DRAFT 8.18.2020
Page 4
o Matt answered that whether or not that can be done is something the team can relay
to the RTA. RTA is currently considering a change to the routing for the area, so instead
of going down Leopard Street, circling Five Points, and heading down Route 77
southward toward Robstown, the route would instead move westward and take a left
onto 1889, traveling south in that direction; then the reverse direction back up 1889 to
the right to Northwest Boulevard. This case presents the need for new bus stop
installations and sidewalk infrastructure to serve them. They are still studying this, but
the plan would improve pedestrian facilities, ADA-accessible, and provide safe crossings
through the roadway. He wasn’t sure where the suggestion was for the new bus stop or
what the challenges were with it, but the comments will be relayed.
• Question: if you expand the number of traffic lanes throughout the boulevard, what kind of
funnel traffic effect will it create at the current mess we already have at the intersection
69/624?
o Matt answered when we talk about the expansion of four lanes to six lanes, it’s going
to attract more traffic, which naturally happens when you provide more capacity. It
simply attracts more cars. If you’re looking to decrease traffic on 624 or slow the
increase, expanding does not help. That is a consideration if you’re weighing in on the
land scenarios. The uniform land scenario is one where six lanes make more sense
because preserving land uses to be less intense; it goes a long way to prevent six-lane
expansion.
• Question: What will be done to the intersection that County Road 69 and Northwest Boulevard
that is already backed up and will get worse when the new school opens?
o Matt answered is that the northern part of 69 will be widened to accommodate that
traffic. He brought up roundabouts as potential to support this. The intention would be
traffic calming and continuation while providing safety for pedestrians.
o Zakcq added that the congestion is happening during pick-up and drop-off. Schools
across the country and Texas have created plans to smooth that flow, such as airport
cell-phone weighting lots, one-way flows, and more. The team is examining this with
the schools.
• Question: there are concerns about maintenance for trees and landscaping for medians.
o Hugo answered there are ways around this considering planting intensity and
strategies for special areas to maintain just those areas. This would need further
study. He suggested more intensity can be just for prime locations, such as near
schools, so it doesn’t have to be along the whole corridor. In terms of watering,
they would focus on low-water, native plants. Some plants may not need irrigation
or only at the beginning.
o Zakcq added there are nongovernmental ways to adopt a highway or median that
can be evaluated.
• Question: the panelist said alternate routing was asked about, specifically if the team was
considering this or if TxDOT was interested in expanding them or find cross -town routes

Northwest Boulevard Corridor Plan
Public Meeting #2 Summary DRAFT 8.18.2020
Page 5
(e.g., County Roads 52 or 73). The concerns were rather than expanding the Northwest
Boulevard, is TxDOT considering looking at othe r routes?
o Matt answered that 52 is a popular route. He asked Dan if there is no plan to
extend 52 westwards. Dan said correct, there is no plan for that. The county did
expand 69 to 1889 recently to provide relief from the highway; there is no plan to
go further west.
• Question: since most of the growth is west coming down 624, there is fear that the
beautification recommendations will not address growth outside the project boundary.
o Matt answered this is true. He said the city cannot control what is outside its
jurisdiction but can work with them about ideas they generally support based on
changing conditions, such as new industrial plants. The hope is that this is a plan
that guides future land use and transportation de cision-making; a tool rather than
concrete law. The plan can be amended as conditions evolve. This plan is intending
to capture the overall sentiment the team has received.
Additional Notes
• Matt and Annika invited attendees who did not have a chance to ask or have their questions
answered to submit their questions or comments over email.

Welcome and Introductions
Presentation
● Discussion and clarification for the engagement timeline during the COVID crisis.
● Discussion and clarification about the plan’s goals, such as the land use component and
addressing the existing traffic issues.
● Discussion about upcoming projects along the corridor, including the HEB tract and
Country Road 52.
Group Discussion
● Discussion of ongoing projects in the area, including from TxDOT, the MPO, and
developers.
○ TxDOT is planning flyover enhancements to alleviate vehicle stacking. This
project has started and will add additional lanes through new striping.
○ The MPO and TxDOT are funding a separate feasibility study to examine
construction along the Northwest Boulevard corridor, but the State will be billions
short in tax revenues. Current expected timeline is 24 months
○ HEB owns a large parcel at Northwest Boulevard and FM1889
○ Calallen Retail Partners also owns adjacent land and plans to build apartments
○ A new elementary school is planned adjacent to the high school. This school will
let out at 3pm. 80% to 100% of students will qualify as bus riders.
● Discussion of specific traffic problems, such as certain choke points, peak traffic hours,
access management, and dangerous intersections.
○ Attendees expressed concern that any new development will exacerbate existing
traffic challenges
○ In general, the Boulevard has high traffic counts - carries about 33,000 vehicles
per day, comparable to Staple Street.
○ Country Road 52 was to alleviate traffic counts but has not performed as well as
intended
○ Right of way between I-69 and the high school is as wide as possible.
○ Access management
○ I-69 and Northwest Boulevard intersection:
■ Long delays at peak hours, and the problem is worsening. Current delays
can be up to 10-15 minutes and worse during school opening and closing
times.
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 65 February 2021
■ Stacking regularly occurs at the northbound onramp to I-37 in front of
Chilis - TxDOT is examining alternatives to mitigate this traffic.
○ School drop off and pick up impacting traffic patterns - TxDOT works with
schools on internal traffic control plans to slow flow onto Northwest Boulevard,
such as through metering.
○ A couple hundred of the 1,200 high school students drive their own cars. Eight
buses drop off in the morning and pick up in the afternoon.
● Discussion of study area’s challenges, including the lack of available infrastructure for
future development, and drainage problems.
○ Continued sprawl of Corpus Christi residents moving outward will continue to
increase traffic numbers on Northwest Boulevard
○ Limited utility infrastructure continues to curb potential commercial and
residential development in the study area
○ The Boulevard has drainage ditches rather than stormwater drainage system,
and stormwater lingers in them for days.
○ The areas south and west of the Boulevard are served by two different water
districts.
○ The city’s development regulations require new development sites to have
detention ponds to prevent frequent and significant flooding
● Study Area Opportunities: Attendees named several amenities and facilities that could
improve quality of life for study area residents, including:
○ Pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure that connect homes to schools and open
space
○ Increased transit service, particularly for residents of the new Wood River
apartments at FM 1889
○ Practice ballfields (baseball) with lighting
○ Neighborhood bicycle/pedestrian connections to Hazel Bazemore Park
● Discussion of stakeholders that need to be involved in the planning process and how to
reach existing residents.
○ Attendees offered support to the project team in identifying study area
constituents to engage
○ Existing businesses and the Business Association
○ Neighborhoods and the Neighborhood Associations, including Wood River
neighborhood
Next Steps
● The project team is conducting a Needs Assessment over the next month and will have
a draft for presentation at the next Advisory Committee meeting.
● The project team is also working toward a project public launch and redesigning the
engagement plan in light of restrictions against travel and public gathering.

• Discussion on marketing the upcoming engagement
• Summary of Phase II outcomes (i.e., vision statement, supportive goals, development
ideas)
Project Overview
• Discussion on upcoming meeting and goals:
o 5/28 is first virtual public meeting. Marketing materials (e.g., flyers) have already
been created and will be shared
o Draft vision statement and goals will be determined following the meeting; draft
deliverables will be submitted to committee in July for public comment
o Judy: concern from the wording that there will be an emphasis on accessibility
(i.e., not ADA requirement, but feeling the word “accessibility” must explicitly be
in the goals). Multimodal and accessibility must vitally be reflected.
Matt shared that there will be engagement questions regarding top 3
words important to project, where such comments as these would be
highly relevant
o Mike P.: public meeting announcements must go out to NW business
association so that they have time to participate if interested. NW Chamber of
Commerce is suggested.
Phase I: Findings
• Discussion on Needs Assessment
o Poll on who received the reviewed the Needs Assessment.
o Attendees were skeptical of the traffic volume information shared:
Mike P. requested clarification on the lack of change in traffic volumes in
the last 20 years. Zakcq: traffic volume decreased significantly during the
Great Recession. Explained data from Figure 20 of the Needs
Assessment that clarified the different types of traffic changes.
o Clarification on zoning map changes:
Commercial #3 rezoned to residential? Site #3 is called Martin Plaza. It is
zoned commercial. It was recently subdivided into two commercial lots.
The subdivision plat application indicates urgent care is proposed at that
location.
o Attendees expressed concern on accessibility and public transportation for
vulnerable populations:
Judy: Pedestrian access will be needed for any added bus stops to the
corridor, especially connections to schools and apartments.

Gordon: Higher priority to increase flex service to grocery stores and
other key destinations. Would like to program the capital for ADA
compliance because some apartments are not served effectively.
Annika: Laura R. is a nurse, serving residents of low-income. Route 27
public transit would be especially useful for these underserved groups
according to Laura.
Mike P.: Impact on county roads have had on current traffic conditions
and routes, particularly how it may favorably impact conditions. On the
development and right on way maps, County Road 52 goes all the way to
FM 1889.
Phase II: Visioning
• Clarification on existing plans and investments:
o Comprehensive plan approved in 2016 provided new land use map
o TxDOT and CC MPO already approved $18 million for street infrastructure
improvements, but the designs from the proposal not approved yet.
o Jack T: Curb cuts as currently configured are essential to his businesses and
asked whether those changes would be made by this plan. Matt R. responded
that proposed guidelines may suggest improvements to future curb cuts but that
existing curb cuts from recently completed development will not be prioritized for
changes.
• Reviewed examples of streetscape mechanisms (e.g., wayfinding, bike racks, signage,
etc.) that could be implemented in the project. Other design enhancements reviewed
include public art/murals, pedestrian safety infrastructure, bicycling infrastructure.
• Discussion on materials available to advertise upcoming engagement opportunities:
o Public meeting will be 5/28 at 6 PM; website, flyer, and city press release/social
media are available about the project and meeting
o planning@cctexas.com email to respondents on marketing documents.
Commission and city council engagement will be in late August / early
September. Visioning survey and marketing materials provided in email sent in
the past week.
o Reviewed sections and capacities of visioning survey

• Discussion on survey findings
o Judy was happy to hear safety features are of high importance. She gave an
overview on the Transportation Advisory Committee’s efforts and concerns, and
confirmed the consultant team was looking at Vision Zero and the Active Mobility
Plan.
o Attendees supported the summary of survey findings.
Draft Vision Statement and Goals
• Discussion on Vision Statement and Goals
o Attendees expressed concern on the alignment of the goals to any upcoming
MPO work, and asked for clarification on funding and timing of MPO work.
Commissioner Vaughn expressed concern that this study’s beautification
efforts would not be reflected in future MPO work.
Charles asked for clarification on MPO funding because dollars have not
been allocated yet.
Craig clarified that yes, although the Northwest Boulevard/FM 624 has
been identified as a priority area, the Harbor bridge has consumed a
majority of the MPOs funding. 2025-2028 is a likely timeline for this
effort’s implementation. Clarified that federal funding is performance
based.
Zakcq highlighted this planning effort will hopefully position the corridor
well for federal funding opportunities.
Annika shared a story about a North Carolina community who formed a
Corridor Commission 10 years in advance of a highway redevelopment
project, to better align their community’s vision with future construction.
o Judy asked for clarification on what was highlighted in the survey results about
housing and affordable housing.
Matt explained the mixed results from the survey respondents. Most
agreed with the statement that anyone who works in the study area
should find housing options, but in another question a majority opposed
diverse new housing types. Housing is not addressed in the goals, but
the consultant team hopes to collect more nuance from the public in the
next phase of engagement.
• Draft Land Use and Transportation Alternatives
o Discussion of the transportation strategies
Attendees were supportive of the school improvement recommendations,
but asked for a more detailed recommendation regarding traffic patterns
after major school events, like football games.

o Discussion of the land use strategies
The group asked for clarification on if the plan shows residential south of
Northwest Boulevard, are we proposed the City would develop utilities?
• Matt provided explanation that no, the land use and zoning
recommendations would set the stage for private development to
build where the market is feasible.
o Due to time limitations, following discussion of zoning, small business support,
streetscape designs and landscape elements, the Advisory Committee was
asked to provide comments through email or through the upcoming online
survey.
Next Steps

Surveys and Results
Visioning Survey Summary | Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 1
Visioning Survey Summary
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan
Prepared by Asakura Robinson
July 15, 2020
Overview
The Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan process has sought public input on priorities for land
use, transportation, and streetscape enhancements. To this end, the City of Corpus Christi Planning
Division published an online visioning survey on May 20th, 2020 to gather input from area stakeholder.
The responses yielded the following top priorities:
1. Reduce traffic congestion on Northwest Boulevard. Approximately 80% of respondents
strongly agreed that the roads should be more convenient for drivers, particularly by mitigating
traffic congestion and improving roadway safety.
2. Introduce more grocery shopping and dining options. Respondents shared a strong desire for
a grocery store and family-friendly dining options.
3. Enhance beauty and landscaping in the area. Respondents desire to improve area aesthetics
with proper landscape maintenance.
4. Improve bicyclist and pedestrian safety. Over 50% of respondents strongly agreed that the
study area’s roads should be safer, more accessible, and convenient for bicyclists and
pedestrians.
Disparities were shown in the representation of survey respondents, particularly regarding household
income. The survey showed a 15-percentage points gap in representation of households with incomes
under $50,000 in the study area. Further engagement efforts should therefore attempt to better achieve
representation from lower-income households.
Methodology
The survey encompassed 17 questions regarding respondents’ perspectives on the Northwest
Boulevard’s current landscape and desired and safety. It was open from May 20th to June 29th, 2020,
accumulating 435 responses in the open period. Surveys were made available online through a website
dedicated to the Northwest Boulevard project (https://corridorscc.com/). The survey was also advertised

Question 7: Please add any additional thoughts you have about housing in the area. (n=205)
This question was a free response format for respondents to share their thoughts on housing in the study
area. The following themes emerged:
1. The study area lacks a variety of housing options.
o “There’s not much that meets the needs of the average working class or single income
families.”
o “Townhome options for senior citizens should be encouraged to build.”
o “Would be nice to have single living options outside of low income options.”
2. The study area shows challenges in affordable housing for residents.
o “Being someone who makes $50k/year, it was hard to find a house in the area I could
afford. If I could, it wasn't in the shape or neighborhood I wished to live. Renting an
apartment = house payment.”
o “Affordable housing options but with property standards to be kept. Nice architectural
features with clean and appealing aesthetic and colors.”
o “The city needs more affordable housing options and mixed used residential areas.”
3. The study area requires infrastructure upgrades in order to support new development.
o “Need to be able to walk on sidewalks from houses to school and businesses.”

Question 10: Please add any additional thoughts you have about public and commercial development in
the area. (n=159)
1. Address traffic congestion and roadway challenges in the study area.
o “Need better roads to and from the area. Easy access to make it safer.”
o “Safer use for pedestrians and cyclists.”
o “The commute from FM 666 to IH 37 has become significantly more dangerous & time
consuming within the last 5 years. Adding more commercial businesses and
neighborhoods will only increase the problem. Please concentrate on alternate routes.”
o “This area has been neglected for too long and because of that there is an increase in
traffic accidents, traffic congestion, risky driving related to frustration and others driving
under the posted speed limit, which further causes congestion.”
o “Yes, there are several areas of concern with NW BLVD. The majority of the issues are
during commuting times and when Calallen ISD is in session. Again, my suggestion is to
expand FM 52 to a four lane with biking and sidewalks, not NW BLVD.”
2. Respondents want additional shopping, restaurants, and businesses in the study area.
o “More fun type restaurants for gathering with friends.”
o “Mom and Pop Main street type of business/local owners.”
o “We are a residential community and wish to remain so. Shopping and recreational
activities are welcome. Minimize industrial activities and high-density housing.”
o “We need more restaurants in the area that are more diverse.”
3. Respondents want a grocery store in the study area.
o “We need an HEB.”
o “Just hoping for more variety of food options or grocery options like for instance a meat
market.”
o “We need a large Grocery store.”
4. Respondents want development in the study area to be based on strategic decisions, such as
master planning.
o “There needs to be a plan. The plan needs to be enforced. Currently there is too much
mixed business/housing/office in the area that makes it less approachable for
shopping/eating than other parts of Corpus Christi.”
o “Commercial development needs to be spread out all the way down NW boulevard and
not just compacted at 5 points.”
o “Love the idea of development as long as it looks uniform to the are and traffic flows
well.”

Other Non-Survey Comments
Participants in public meetings and other engagement events were given the project managers’ contact
information to share additional comments through email. The following were highlighted quotes from
email feedback.
“I know we are very interested in seeing the bus stops extended into our area since the route seems to
stop near the high school presently. It would be nice to see it continue out to the Wood River area which
would give access to our church location and some of the services we offer.” – Grace United Methodist
Church Food Distribution (Emailed on 7/3/2020)
“While driving down the current road trying to envision the project. We do not want three more miles of
unkept medians and overgrown right of ways that the state of Texas only maintains on a semiannual or
quarterly basis. Nor do we want the overgrown median on Leopard St near Violet Rd or Callicoatte.
Which the City of Corpus Christi neglects. We’ve been forgotten for years don’t start something you
don’t intend to maintain.” (Emailed on 6/9/2020)
List of Traffic and Land Use Priorities (Emailed on 4/24/2020):
• What are the key issues facing the study area?
o Lack of east and west traffic carrying corridors.
o Please notice that Hwy 77 or I-69 has limited east/west penetrations at Northwest Blvd.,
County Rd. 52 and County Rd. 48. With minimal right-of-way extensions east of said
highway.
o Several large areas of residential infill needed to complete traffic circulation particularly
in the Annaville area.
o Limited land use growth opportunities to the north and south of the following major
corridors Leopard, Northwest Boulevard and IH-37. Limitations are due to several
factors: 1) Nueces River (Annaville & Calallen areas) 2) and more concerning the
encroachment and expansion of the Industrial districts in the Annaville & Tuloso Midway
areas.
o Air quality or lack there of in and around the Kane meat processing facility and
industrial plants. Solar Estates and Arlington Heights neighborhoods adversely impacted
with very poor air quality on most days.
• Assets and opportunities: What is important to preserve, protect, and enhance?
o Several large undisturbed natural areas in and around the Nueces River.
o City to continue making enhancements to West Guth Park (large regional park) More
tree plantings, water feature improvements, etc.
o Encourage Nueces County to make enhancements to Hazel Bazemore Park.
o More tree plantings, upgrade to facilities and park features.
• Challenges and threats: What problems need to be solved?
o Improve the traffic grid. Extremely limited east and west traffic corridors funnel traffic
loads onto Northwest Boulevard and Leopard creating a real traffic snarl at five points
and other intersections along said corridor and Leopard.
o City Engineering needs to improve many rural residential rights-of-way by building
proper curb and cutter and ADA compliant sidewalks. Many older residential
neighborhoods do not have sidewalks so there is no walkable connectivity.
• What changes are planned for the study area?
88 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
Visioning Survey Summary | Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 17
o A new H.E.B. was forecast to be constructed but has yet to be built. This would seriously
relieve the over grounding at the both Walmart and current H.E.B. at Violet and
Leopard.
o County Road 52 or Cooperative Avenue improvements must continue to relieve traffic
pressures on Northwest Boulevard.
o Development of and east and west corridor in the Annaville area south of Leopard
between I-69 Corridor and Callicoatte Road, Violet Road, McKinzie Road and Rand
Morgan Road.
o Improvements to HWY 44 with new and under construction overpasses between Corpus
Christi and Robstown.
• What uses would you propose for new private development?
o City sale a portion or all of Labonte Park to private water park developeramusement
park.
o Development of additional grocery store opportunities. Both H.E.B. and Walmart
function as regional stores in an expanding food desert in this area of Nueces county and
Corpus Christi.
• What kind of public amenities and services are desired? Answered above.
• Who are the key stakeholders?
o Multiple Refinery Companies with terminals and facilities abutting and
o encroaching into planned residential areas.
o Nueces County
o City of Corpus Christi
o Engineering Department (traffic engineering)
o Parks and Recreation
o Code Enforcement

Transportation and Land Use Strategies Survey
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan
Prepared by Asakura Robinson
July 29 – August 23rd, 2020
The Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan process has sought the public’s feedback on
support, opposition, or other thoughts on 20 transportation and land use strategies proposed for the
Northwest Boulevard study area. The City of Corpus Christi Planning Division published an online
transportation and land use concepts survey on July 23rd, 2020 to gather input from area
stakeholders. The survey closed on August 23rd. The responses yielded the following key takeaways:
1. Strong support for the Vision Statement. Approximately 78 percent of respondents
supported the Vision Statement for this project.
2. Coordinating with Calallen ISD to mitigate school traffic (i.e., including one-way
drop-off and pickups, closing U-turns during special events, and organizing walking
school buses) is the most supported strategy out of the 20 given. Approximately 82
percent of respondents supported this strategy.
3. Agreement with Goal #2: “Northwest Boulevard is prosperous, with a strong local
economy anchored by small businesses.” This goal received 76-percent of respondents
support, showing the most supported out of the four proposed Goals for the Northwest
Boulevard study area. Some respondents left additional comments expressing a desire for
more information on the business incentives to allow for this goal.
4. Mixed feelings on the small business support strategies. The six small business
support strategies received a range of 25-64 percent strong agreement. “Create a Public
Improvement District that raises tax revenue for local improvements,” received the
strongly opposition (i.e., 28 percent collectively somewhat and strongly opposing).
“Create new marketing opportunities for area businesses” received the strongest support
(i.e., 87 percent collectively somewhat and strongly supporting).
5. Mixed feelings on currently adopted Future Land Use Map. Many respondents
express support for the future land use map, particularly for its flexibility on what could
be developed and the mixed-use (i.e., commercial, low and high residential). The
“Uniform” future land use scenario overall seemed to show more support, however,
compared to the “Transitional” future land use scenario.
6. Concern for roundabouts safety. Several respondents expressed concern that the study
area’s visitors are not educated on roundabout usage (i.e., causing more accidents). The
opposition was from this concern, but roundabout education was recommended by some.
7. Mixed feelings on public art and other aesthetics. About half of respondents supported
public art ideas. Opposing respondents expressed that public art funds be instead used to
address critical infrastructure needs before such aesthetics. Respondents shared similar
opposing sentiments regarding a gateway entrance and signage.
Summary of Question Responses
Q1 Do you support the following Vision Statement? "Northwest Boulevard is Calallen’s
“Main Street,” providing the amenities of a prosperous neighborhood center in a small, tight-
knit community. The Boulevard is a welcoming, diverse, and family-friendly place where
people go to shop, gather, invest in businesses, play and raise a family."

June 2020
96 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
This Assessment of Opportunities report
summarizes key findings from a review of existing
demographic, land use, and economic conditions
and recent trends. Among the noteworthy
takeaways are:
1. Study area residents enjoy higher incomes and longevity than the average Corpus
Christi resident.....................................................................................................................12
The median household income for the study area is between $75,000 to $99,999, much higher
than the median household income for Corpus Christi, which is $55,709. The average life
expectancy for the census tracts in the study area is 80.5 years, 2.5 years higher than that of
Nueces county and 1.7 years higher than that of Texas.
2. The study area is home to approximately 140 businesses and 1,450 employees....18
Businesses serving regional demand include banks, big box retail like Walmart and the Five Points
Shopping Center, fast food restaurants, restaurant chains, and medical facilities. Restaurants and
schools employ the most workers: 2005 and 200, respectively.
3. Residents spend over $120 million annually on groceries, general merchandise,
clothing, and health and personal care outside the primary trade area...................20
The current supply of grocery stores could double in number or size to meet just resident demand
within the trade area. Residents currently spend over $50 million on groceries outside the trade
area.
4. The study area contains 1.5 million square feet of vacant land zoned for
commercial uses .................................................................................................................22
Commercial parcels vary largely in size. The majority of commercial properties range between
20,000 and 60,000 square feet.A handful of landowners in the area own 56% of the available
vacant land ripe for development, or 29% of the entire study area.
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 1 February 2021
KEY TAKEWAYS
5. Traffic volumes along Northwest Boulevard are similar in 2018 to those traffic volumes
collected in 1999..................................................................................................24
A steady, incremental increase of traffic volumes on Northwest Boulevard is expected based on the 20
year Average Annual Daily Trip (AADT) trends.
6. Three fatal collisions in the corridor between 2018 and 2019 resulted in the death of one
cyclist and two pedestrians...................................................................................28
Every pedestrian-vehicle collision occurred near an intersection (River Trail Drive, FM 1889, and Interstate
69E).
7. No sidewalks are present for most of the length of Northwest Boulevard........................35
Sidewalks are present directly along Northwest Boulevard on the northside between Calallen High School
campus and Interstate 69E and on the southside between Wildcat Drive and Interstate 69E
8. The 2018 Strategic Plan for Active Mobility: Phase 1 Bicycle Mobility recommends a
cycletrack on either side of Northwest Boulevard...................................................................38
Located between Wildcat Drive and River Hill Drive, this facility would connect the Wood River
neighborhood to the intersection with Highway 77.

Introduction
Thanks in part to a surge of industrial development in
the Corpus Christi metropolitan area in recent years,
the Calallen area of far-northwest Corpus Christi has
experienced new development. From oil refining and
transportation to steel production, the expansion in these
export industries is bringing wealth and job opportunities
to the region. With this investment comes development
pressure and demand grows for new homes, retailers and
services. The City of Corpus Christi anticipates additional
residential and commercial development, as well as a
new elementary school, in the Northwest Boulevard (FM
624) Corridor, shown below. Plans to build a new steel
factory in Sinton, if realized, could drive additional demand
for new housing and commerce in Calallen. While new

development creates new opportunities for people to
live, work and do business in Calallen, it also brings new
challenges, such as more auto traffic, and more demands
on critical infrastructure.
This planning study represents the City of Corpus
Christi’s effort to proactively plan for orderly, attractive
and sustainable growth and development consistent
with the community’s vision. The Northwest Boulevard
Corridor lies 20 miles upriver from downtown Corpus
Christi. The study area comprises a 500-foot buffer to
the north and to the south from Interstate 69 to Wright
Moravek Road (County Road 73) - nearly three miles.
The Nueces River bounds adjacent neighborhoods to
the north, while Interstate 69 presents a physical barrier
to the east. To the west and south, development quickly
transitions from suburban to rural conditions. The Wood
River neighborhood is north of the corridor, and major
anchors include one preschool, two elementary schools,
one high school, River Hills Country Club, Hazel Bazemore
Park, Corpus Christi Medical Center, and retail destinations
including Walmart and the Five Points Shopping Center.

Development History
The Town of Calallen was established in 1910 where
the St. Louis, Brownsville and Mexico railroad crossed
the Nueces River, and grew into a center for agricultural
trade.1 The initial settlement was located to the northeast
of the Northwest Boulevard study area, between what is
today Interstate 37 and the Nueces River.

The City of Corpus Christi annexed this area in the 1960s,
and annexed the majority of the Northwest Boulevard
study area in the 1980s and 1990s. Urban development
coincided with annexation; its peak development was in
the 1980s and 1990s, though many current structures
were built prior to annexation.

6 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
Previous Planning
As a primary artery serving mutliple institutional uses
in Corpus Christi's northwest, Northwest Blvd. has been
subject to numerous citywide, comprehensive, and long-
range planning efforts. They focus on the function of the
roadway, and emphasize the safe balance of user modes,
particularly east of FM 1889.
Plan Major Goals Relation to this effort Implementation Details
Bicycle Mobility Plan, CCMPO,
2018
This plan is Phase I of the Strategic Plan for Active Mobility under the CCMPO.
The major vision goals are 1) develop a cohesive, strategic network of bicycle
facilies that accommodates a diversity of riders 2) Increase the percentage
of trips of all types that are made by bicycle 3) Promote health and wellness
through bicycling and 4) Enhance safety for bicyclists. The plan methods
included developing a community hotspot analysis to determine demand
that was then used for bicycle route selection via network analyst reflecting
community preferences: 1) Off-road trail connections were prioritized over
routes that followed the street network 2) neighborhood streets and minor
collectors were prioritized over busier roadways and 3) streets that pass
through areas adjacent to activity centers were prioritized over streets that
run right through the heart of an activity center or through areas with a
very low concentration of destinations. Once presented and “tested” with
the community for feedback, specific bicycle infrastructure treatments and
facilities were then identified.
As Phase 1 of the Mobility Plan, the Bicycle Mobility
identifies street segments for bikeway infrastructure and
details what types of bicycle facilities are recommended
for each street segment. Community engagement informed
detailed mapping analyses to select routes and suggest
corresponding facility recommendations matching
stakeholder preferences.
This plan recommendations bicycle infrastructure along
Northwest Boulevard between Wildcat Drive and River
Hill Drive in the form of protected cycletracks on either
side of the boulevard located outside of the vehicular
traffic lanes.
Transit Plan 20/20, Corpus Christi
Regional Transportation Authority,
2016
A Five-Year Service Plan was developed based on the existing conditions
report findings and community engagement activities, including surveys,
according to the following themes: upgrades to southside services, more
frequent service on Leopard and Port, expanded Sunday service, more direct
westside service, Downtown/North Beach route improvements, increased
direct routing and frequency in Robstown, consolidated Port Aransas service,
expanded Express service, and improved speed and reliability, which are
organized within the report according to service types and are divided into two
implementation phases. Recommended improvements address service design
(i.e. direct routing, route alignment, route deviations, schedule simplicity),
established performance metrics (i.e. ridership productivity, passenger loads,
schedule reliability, schedule efficiency), and bus stops (i.e. accessibility,
amenities, real time arrival information, etc).
Transit Plan 20/20 includes recommendations to improve
current service after comprehensively analyzing the
strengths of the system and identifying gaps in service.
The plan includes recommendations that directly impact
Northwest Boulevard.
Transit Plan 20/20 includes recommended
improvements to Route 27, a portion of which operates
along Northwest Boulevard within the study area
corridor. The plan recommends rerouting Route 27
from the I-69 Access Road after looping around the Five
Points Shopping Center to Northwest Boulevard before
turning south onto FM 1889. The reroute will likely
create additional bus stops along Northwest Boulevard
and FM 1889, requiring pedestrian infrastructure
to connect these potential bus stops to the existing
sidewalk network.

Plan Major Goals Relation to this effort Implementation Details
Mobility CC, City of Corpus Christi,
2013
Of the eight policies the plan establishes, the following are relevant to the
Northwest Boulevard Study Area:
Policy 1: Integrate street infrastructure that provides balanced transportation
options and design features into street design and construction to create
safe and inviting environments for all users to walk, bicycle, and use public
transportation.
Policy 3: Plan and develop a comprehensive and convenient bicycle and
pedestrian transportation network.
Policy 6: Provide children with safe and appealing opportunities for walking
and bicycling to school in order to decrease rush-hour traffic, and fossil fuel
consumption, encourage exercise and healthy living habits in children, and
reduce the risk of injury to children through traffic collisions near school.
Policy 7: Create safe routes to parks and open spaces.
This document is the transportation element of the city’s
Comprehensive plan. It guides decision-making pertaining
to the planning, design, operation and mainenance of the
city’s transportation networks. It “houses all transportation
related plans, including the City’s Thoroughfare Plan,
Trails Master Plan, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
Master Plan (formerly the ADA transition plan), plans for
the installation of roundabouts and road diets at select
locations, and plans for specific street corridors.”
The Urban Transportation Plan establishes roadway
classifications for the city’s streets, broadly categorized into
Local Access Streets, Collectors, Arterials, and Freeways.
The UTP identifies Northwest Boulevard as an “A3
Primary - Arterial Divided” urban street, indicating a
130’-wide right-of-way, up to 6 lanes of traffic, 17.5’ of
distance between curb and property line, and 30,000 to
48,000 maximum average daily trips.
HikeBikeCC recommends 10.26 miles of on-street and
off-street facilities to comprise the Nueces River Trail,
which would connect Northwest Boulvard to the river
via Trinity River Drive, River Walk Drive, and a drainage
corridor through the Wood River subdivision, and
eastward along the river’s south bank to Labonte Park.
Northwest Area Development Plan,
City of Corpus Christi, 2001
Relevant Policy Statements:
A) Environment. (A1): Maintain and/or improve water quality in the Nueces
River - The river provides 2/3 of the City’s drinking water supply.
B) Land Use. (B1e): The expansion of business uses along Northwest
Boulevard (F.M. 624) or any other arterial street should be planned and zoned
so that the traffic carrying capacity of the street is protected. West of County
Road 75, commercial uses on Northwest Boulevard should only be allowed
at arterial intersections. (B3): Encourage development of recreational vehicle
parks in the northwest area to capture “Winter Texans” traveling U.S. 77 (IH-
69). (B5): Development along all arterial and expressways will be required to
plant street trees on fifty-foot centers in a tree planting zone located within 10
feet of any property line abutting the street rights-of-way.
C) Annexation. (C1): Pursue annexation of property in advance of
development, particularly, along major roadways for the purpose of creating
compatible land use and development patterns. (C2): Prior to annexation,
develop detailed assessments of infrastructure and action plans for
improving and or replacing inadequate infrastructure in outlying substandard
developments. (C3): The City should aggressively pursue annexation of the
developing areas within the Nueces River watershed within Nueces County.
D) Transportation. (D1a): Relief of traffic congestion along Northwest
Boulevard (F.M. 624) and at the Five Points Intersection is a major focus of the
plan recommendations.
E) Public Services. (E3): Create a Nueces River Hike and Bike Trail system with
connections to the Oso Parkway system, and schools, parks and other public
facilities in the Northwest Area.
The Northwest Area Development Plan componnent of
the City’s Comprehensive Plan illustrates the decades-
long attempt to guide transportation and land use
development in an orderly manner that enhances quality
of life. Specifically, it names mobility improvements around
Northwest Boulevard designed to mitigate congestion of its
eastern terminus at the “Five Points Intersection.” Several of
these improvements remain to be funded and constructed.
This plan also indicated the community's desire to improve
the appearance of Northwest Boulevard through three
plantings.
PS D1 Recommendation a1: “Northwest Boulevard is
recommended as an arterial street with an ultimate 120’
minimum right-of-way, six traffic lanes, and a median.”
PS D1 Recommendation a2: “A two-lane 60-foot
right-of-way loop collector street (south of Wal-Mart) is
proposed between U.S. 77 and the extension of River
East Drive.”
PS D1 Recommendation a3: “County Road 52 is
recommended as an arterial street with an ultimate
100’ minimum right-of-way, four travel lanes and a
landscaped median.”

long attempt to guide transportation and land use
development in an orderly manner that enhances quality
of life. Specifically, it names mobility improvements around
Northwest Boulevard designed to mitigate congestion of its
eastern terminus at the “Five Points Intersection.” Several of
these improvements remain to be funded and constructed.
This plan also indicated the community's desire to improve
the appearance of Northwest Boulevard through three
plantings.
PS D1 Recommendation a1: “Northwest Boulevard is
recommended as an arterial street with an ultimate 120’
minimum right-of-way, six traffic lanes, and a median.”
PS D1 Recommendation a2: “A two-lane 60-foot
right-of-way loop collector street (south of Wal-Mart) is
proposed between U.S. 77 and the extension of River
East Drive.”
PS D1 Recommendation a3: “County Road 52 is
recommended as an arterial street with an ultimate
100’ minimum right-of-way, four travel lanes and a
landscaped median.”

Resident Demographics
An estimated 11,000 people reside in the five Census
Block Groups adjacent to the study area, as of 2019.2 This
is an 8.3% increase since 2010, nearly 1% per year - just
under the city's rate of 9.8%. Population growth ranged
from 6.3% to 13.8% among the Block Groups to the north,
west, and south of the study area, while it declined 3.1% in
the neighborhood east of I-69.
The median age group of residents is between 35 and 44,
but residents ages 55 and over roughly make up almost a
third (32.3%) of the study area population. Comparatively,
in Corpus Christi, Nueces County, and Texas, residents
ages 55+ only make up about a quarter of their population
(27.7%, 28.1%, and 24.7%, respectively). The percent of
households with children is slightly higher than the county
average (43% and 36%, respectively).3

Ridge Nursing and Rehabilitation. Almost 8 in 10 residents
(78.6%) live in family households compared to non-family
households (21.5%) at rates higher to those of the county
and state, where 68.1% of the population live in family
households in Nueces and 69.6% in Texas.4

The study area is composed of predominantly white
residents (90.0%), of whom almost half identify with
Hispanic origin (46.6%).5 The median household income
for the study area is $87,253, much higher than the
median household income for Corpus Christi, which is
$53,614. The average life expectancy for the census tracts
in the study area is 80.5 years, 2.5 years higher than that
of Nueces county and 1.7 years higher than that of Texas6,
suggesting that residents have relatively high access to
public health resources.
The study area is majority homeowners (79%), and has a
slightly higher percentage of homeowners compared to
the city (70%). Since 2010, homeownership has decreased
by about 3% within the study area and citywide, likely due
to increases in multi-family development7.

Existing Land Use
The map in Figure 8 shows existing land uses within
the study area as determined for the 2016 Plan CC
Comprehensive Plan. The study area contains a wide
variety of land uses, including agriculture, low- to medium-
density residential, commercial, as well as many currently
vacant lands. Several civic uses such as schools, colleges,
and parks also reside within the study area.
Land Use and Market Analysis
The breadth of land uses indicate the importance of the
study area across a variety of stakeholders in addition
to the challenges of creating an attractive and unified
corridor that accomplishes the collective vision of the City.
The study area and adjacent neighborhoods have large
parcels of land not fully developed; which are currently
zoned as Farm Rural, Multifamily, Neighborhood
Commercial, or General Commercial.8

Current Zoning
Most of the land fronting Northwest Boulevard is zoned
General Commercial, which intends to provide "sufficient
space in appropriate locations for all types of commercial
and service activity, particularly along arterial streets
where a general mixture of such activity now exists."9
Neighborhood Commercial Districts are interspersed
among the General Commercial Districts, near the center
of the study area. These provide areas for commercial
activity such as sale of convenience goods and personal
services that primarily benefit nearby residential areas,"
and are usually have pedestrian access from nearby
residential neighborhoods.10
9 City of Corpus Christi Unified Development
Code, Section 4.5.1.D.
10 Ibid., Section 4.5.1.A.
A significant amount of land within the study area
and adjacent to the south and west is zoned Farm-
Rural, which is intended for land that is "relatively
underdeveloped and agricultural in nature." It is also "the
default zoning district for land newly-annexed to the City,"
and therefore subject to reclassification for appropriate
uses.11
Beyond the study area itself, most adjacent neighborhood
zoning is for residential uses - largely for single family
homes, but also including some multi-family classified
parcels.

Future Land Use Designations
PlanCC, the City's comprehensive plan, establishes a
Future Land Use Map (FLUM) to guide development and
redevelopment for the next twenty years. It is not a zoning
map, but rather a guide for decision-makers charged with
making rulings on zoning and land use issues.
The vision of future development in the Northwest
Boulevard Corridor codified in FLUM is for a mix of uses
largely anchored by commercial uses. Government close
to the interstate (Calallen High School, Corpus Christi
Medical Center Northwest, and Del Mar College) remain
in place, while medium density residential comprises a
stretch of the southern side of Northwest Boulevard west
of FM 1889. A handful of parcels between FM 1889 and
County Road 69 do not have FLUM designations.
18 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
Housing Stock
The neighborhoods adjacent to the Study Area are
primarily single-family residential. These neighborhoods
contain mostly single-family detached homes, but also
includes multi-family, condos, and the Windsor Calallen
Nursing home, which has 120 beds, or 60 rooms.
There is one recent multi-family development, the Calallen
Apartments, and one planned multi-family development
just south of the new Calallen apartments. There is one
planned single-family development, called River Ridge Unit
4. South of Northwest Boulevard, this proposed 136 lot
development sits north of County Road 52, east of County
Road 69, and at the extension of Riverside Boulevard.
Businesses
The study area is home to approximately 140 businesses
and 1,450 employees.12 As a commercial corridor,
commercial and retail businesses are located immediately
off Northwest Boulevard’s right-of-way, surrounded by
residential neighborhoods, and most of the corridor’s
businesses are clustered on the east side of the study
area, supporting regional demand from Interstate 69.
Businesses serving regional demand include banks, big
box retail like Walmart and the Five Points Shopping
Center, fast food restaurants, restaurant chains, and
medical facilities. Services and local businesses serving
the surrounding neighborhoods include local cafes and
restaurants. Restaurants and schools employ the most
workers: 2005 and 200, respectively.
Despite the high number of jobs in the study area
and adjacent neighborhoods (4,934),13 the majority
of residents commute elsewhere for employment.
Approximately 601 out of 4,558 employed residents live
and work within the study area’s adjacent neighborhoods,
resulting in 4,333 employees commuting into the study
area from other parts of the Corpus Christi area. This daily
inflow and outflow has a large impact on traffic, especially
during peak travel hours. More traffic analysis will be
discussed in the following Transportation Section.

Retail Market Analysis
Approximately 60,000 people live within a 15-minute
driving distance of the center of the Northwest Boulevard
study area, which encompasses the towns of Odem
and Edroy to the north, Robstown to the south, and
neighborhoods adjacent to the Leopard Street corridor
eastward to US Highway 358. Households within this
"primary trade area" had an estimated median disposable
income of $47,543 and total disposable income of
$1.28 billion in 2019. The population grew by over 5,000
since 2010 - an annual rate of about 1%. At this rate, the
population will grow by about 2,900 by 202414.
While the study area offers many shopping opportunities,
analysis of sales by retail category within the primary
trade area suggest that residents within the area are
leaving it to make purchases. These categories and their
leakage amounts are:
Food & Beverage Stores: $56.7 million15
This category includes grocery stores of all sizes,
specialty food stores, and beer, wine and liquor stores.
This figure represents about half of the total resident
demand for grocery purchases within the primary trade
area, meaning that the current supply of grocery stores
could double in number or size to meet just resident
demand within the trade area.
General merchandise Stores: $30.5 million
This category includes "big box" discount stores such as
Walmart, smaller "dollar" stores such as Dollar General,
and chain pharmacies. Each of these are found on the
eastern side of the study area. This represents 28% of
overall resident demand, indicating that existing general
merchandise stores meet a greater share of demand for
their products than grocery stores do.

Clothing & Accessories Stores: $19.0 million
This includes clothes, shoes, and jewelry. This amount
represents two thirds of total resident demand for clothing
stores. Thus, while the total leakage value is lower than
grocery and general mechandise leakage, this category
is comparatively less saturated within the primary trade
area.
Health and Personal Care Stores: $17.5 million
Trade area residents spend $36.5 million on health and
personal care stores, but study area retailers sell only $19
million in products and services, which means residents
are spending nearly that same amount outside the trade
area.
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 21 February 2021
Some retail categories within the trade area sell more
goods and services than its residents consume. This
means people are traveling from outside the trade area to
make these purchases, indicating that these sectors are
already strong attractors, and do not require recruitment
to locate within the study area and meet residents needs.
These categories and their suplus sales amounts are:
Motor Vehicle & Parts Dealers: $139.5 million
Sales within this category are twice the demand among
trade area residents. The cluster of car dealerships along
the US Hwy. 77/I-69 corridorr south of the study area
contributes to the large supply of this category within the
primary trade area.
Gasoline Stations: $27.9 million
Trade area residents spend $64.3 million per year at
gasoline stations, yet area stations sell $92.2 million.
Restaurants: $14.9 million
It is common among trade areas that experience high
levels of commuters to experience higher restaurant sales
than area residents demand. This surplus may be the
result of commuters to the area's numerous employment
centers, such as schools and the medical center, going
out for lunch or dinner.

Commercial Characteristics
The study area has large parcels not fully developed;
roughly 1.5 million square feet is vacant parcels zoned
commercial (General Commercial, Neighborhood
Commercial, and Neighborhood Office). Commercial
parcels vary largely in size. The majority of commercial
properties range between 20,000 and 60,000 square feet.

Land Ownership
Given its large amount of vacant land, the study area
is well-positioned to contribute to the city’s economic
development through the development of a live-work
environment. A handful of landowners in the area own
56% of the available vacant land ripe for development,
or 29% of the entire study area. 10% of the study area
is owned by the City and the Callalan ISD, and those
properties are already developed or have development
plans in place.
Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan 23 February 2021
Catalytic Development Sites
Catalytic development sites, indicated on the following
page, are located where development can fulfill city
and corridor goals, including job creation, improved
transportation and access, or new housing units.
A common issue that complicates development within
this corridor is the location of oil and gas pipelines. Some
pipelines are abandoned, but others remain active. The
unreliability of survey data adds risk and cost to upcoming
development.
A high level review of the following attributes were
considered in the analysis of land for catalytic
development viability:
• Existing zoning
• Proximity to higher traffic volumes
• Adjacent to development for cost-effective
utilization of existing utilities
• Size of site
• Adjacency to Northwest Boulevard

Transportation Analysis
Traffic Volumes
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) average
annual daily traffic (AADT) volumes for vehicles in the
Northwest Boulevard study area in 2018 are illustrated in
the map on the following page. Moving eastward along
Northwest Boulevard from County Road 73 to its eastern
terminus at Interstate I-69, the AADT ranges from 23,361
to 33,512 auto vehicles each day utilizing the corridor.
Auto traffic volumes are higher in the eastern portion
of the study area, as expected, given the proximity to
Interstate I-69 and concentration of intense land uses.
Two traffic count locations (E and F on Figure 20) located
along Interstate 69 have traffic volumes between 45,000
and 62,000 vehicles. Traffic volumes on roads terminating
onto Northwest Boulevard are lower; fewer than 10,000
vehicles currently travel on FM 1889 daily.
A 20-year trend analysis for the traffic count locations
in the study area indicates that the daily traffic volumes
along Northwest Boulevard are similar in 2018 to
those traffic volumes collected in 1999. FM 1889 has
experienced the most stable traffic volumes during
this 20-year period, with traffic volumes on Northwest
Boulevard fluctuating by as much as 10,000 vehicles per
day between the highest and lowest traffic volume counts.
Beginning in 2007 at the start of the Great Recession,
traffic volumes on Northwest Boulevard declined before
starting to grow again in 2010; in 2018 traffic volumes
on Northwest Boulevard were similar to 2007 volumes.
Traffic volumes have fluctuated widely along Interstate
69 in the study area, with traffic volumes doubling from
30,000 to over 60,000 between 2013 and 2018. Much of
this fluctuation is a direct result of construction-related
impacts on Interstate 69.
Pedestrians and cyclists are not included in this count; the

Strategic Plan for Active Mobility Phase 1: Bicycle Mobility
Plan includes case studies of cities that have conducted
bicycle counts and recommends bicycle counts be
conducted for performance measures.
A steady, incremental increase of traffic volumes on
Northwest Boulevard was expected based on the 20
year AADT trends. However, taking the evidence of the
decline of traffic in the Great Recession, it is unclear
how the COVID 19 crisis will impact long term trends
on the corridor. Land use changes that are expected
to contribute to the increase of traffic volumes include
the construction of restaurants and limited retail in the
western half of the study area at County Roads 73 and
69, in addition to a residential development west of FM
1889. The possible construction of a new H-E-B store at
FM 1889 and Northwest Boulevard would likely increase
traffic volumes along both segments.
Although there is no bicycle or pedestrian count data
available for this segment of Northwest Boulevard,
newer residential and retail and restaurant uses will likely
increase demand for biking and walking facilities in the
study area. Students living in the recently completed
Calallen Apartments at FM 1889 and future students living
in The Lakes at Northwest subdivision under construction
will need safe infrastructure for both traveling along
Northwest Boulevard and crossing the five-lane roadway
to access area schools on foot or by bike.

Transit
The Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Agency
(CCRTA) operates one local fixed bus route, Route 27,
serving a portion of Northwest Boulevard. Route 27, the
second longest route in the CCRTA system,16 runs from
downtown Corpus Christi westward along Leopard Street
and then south along the I-69 Access Road/US-77 to
Robstown multiple times daily. Route 27 also operates in
tandem with two Parks and Recreation services. One Park-
and-Ride at the Robstown Transfer Station in Robstown,
located at Avenue A and 4th Street, has a maximum

immediately west of the Rehfeld Road intersection with a
maximum capacity of 75 parking spaces.
Both the southbound or outbound trips and the north
bound or inbound trips northbound and southbound
routes create a short loop around the Five Points
Shopping Center, which experiences high ridership,
utilizing Northwest Boulevard, Wildcat Drive, and Teague
Lane. Five bus stops serving Route 27 are within the

Figure 23: Recommended Route 27 Reroutestudy area boundaries, with one bus stop directly along
Northwest Boulevard just east of Wildcat Drive. One of
the reasons why ridership is high on this route along
this segment is because Route 27 maintains the same
schedule and route alignment on the weekends instead
of consolidating the route or operating across a shorter
window of service.
The CCRTA Transit Plan 20/20 recommends changes to
the Route 27 alignment to “serve additional commercial
development along FM 624."17 The suggested reroute will

to FM 1889 to reach Robstown Station, rather than by
travelling on US Highway 77. Findings from interviews
conducted with bus operators as part of the Transit Plan
20/20 indicated that there may be pent up demand for
Route 27, especially on weekend mornings,as evidenced
by standing-room only conditions.

involving possible injury, 188 collisions in which no one
was injured, and 5 collisions with unknown severity.
Mapping the locations of the collisions shows that the
vast majority of crashes in the study corridor occur east
of Wildcat Drive along Northwest Boulevard and along
I-69. When overlayed the curb cut locations shown in
Figure 29, the locations of these crashes correspond
32 Northwest Boulevard (FM 624) Corridor Plan February 2021
with the locations of driveways to the commercial and
institutional parcels along Northwest Boulevard. A survey
of corridor images shows that nearly every curb cut, or
driveway, lacks any directional signage in the form of
posted stop signs or painted stop bars for motorists,
indicating that drivers may not be yielding ample right-of-
way time before making turning movements.
Of these 272 incidents, 266 or 98% of collisions involved
only motor vehicles. There was one bike-related and four
pedestrian-related collisions with motor vehicles along
Northwest Boulevard, with an additional “no contact”
collision listed in the crash report data. While the overall
number of collisions involving both motor vehicles and
people biking and walking were low, these were among
the deadliest collisions. The three fatal collisions in the
corridor between 2018 and 2019 resulted in the death
of one cyclist and two pedestrians. The remaining two
pedestrian-vehicle collisions in the corridor during this
time period resulted in non-incapacitating injuries.
Every pedestrian-vehicle collision occurred near an
intersection (River Trail Drive, FM 1889, and Interstate
69E), with the former two pedestrian-vehicle collisions at
unsignalized intersections and the latter two pedestrian-
vehicle collisions at signalized intersections with marked
crosswalks.
The crash report data notes from police reports cited
that the contributing factor in every pedestrian-vehicle
crash was the “pedestrian [failure] to yield right of way
to vehicle,” indicating that safer, formalized pedestrian
crossings of Northwest Boulevard are needed for
pedestrians since 50% of these collisions resulted in the
death of pedestrians. The presence of sidewalks and
traffic signals is discussed below under “Pedestrian and
Bicycling Infrastructure.”
There was no contributing factor listed in the police report
for the bicycle-vehicle collision, although the driver was
reported as “going straight” along Northwest Boulevard.
News reports of the bicyclist fatality describe the incident
as a hit-and-run since the driver did not stop; the 30-year-
old victim was traveling south on Northwest Boulevard
before being struck at approximately 7:00 a.m. on a
weekday morning18. With a posted speed limit of 50 miles

either separated or off-street for maximum user safety.
Existing bikeway conditions are discussed below under
“Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure.”
Roadway Geometry
Between CR 73 and River Hill Drive (a 1.5 mile length),
Northwest Boulevard is 5 lanes across with two driving
lanes in each direction, a center turning lane, and a wide
shoulder on either side.
Between River Hill Drive and Wildcat Drive (1 mile length),
Northwest Boulevard retains two driving lanes in each
direction, with the center turning lane punctuated by
medians to protect left-turning drivers from oncoming
traffic.
East of Wildcat Drive (0.3 mile length), Northwest
Boulevard expands to three driving lanes in each
direction with a median-protected center turn lane. At
the intersection with Interstate 69E, there are three
westbound driving lanes and the eastbound traffic is
divided between one left-turn only lane, a shared left-turn
and through lane, a through lane only, and a right-turn only
lane.

Pedestrian and Bicycling Infrastructure
No sidewalks are present for most of the length of
Northwest Boulevard in the study area. Sidewalks are
present directly along Northwest Boulevard on the
northside between Calallen High School campus and
Interstate 69E and on the southside between Wildcat Drive
and Interstate 69E. The sidewalk on Calallen High School
campus is approximately six feet wide and separated
from auto traffic by a drainage ditch. This segment is the
only sidewalk in the study area corridor along Northwest
Boulevard that has any shade and this limited shade is
provided by the canopy of trees planted on campus.
East of Wildcat Drive, the existing sidewalks are
immediately adjacent to the roadway with no landscaping
or vegetative buffer between pedestrians and vehicles.
These sidewalks are approximately six feet wide and
cross at least half a dozen driveways on each side of
Northwest Boulevard with no crosswalk markings, painted
stop bars, or stops signs for any of these driveways with
the exception of Chick-fil-A, which has a painted stop bar
and stop sign at its driveway.
Residential sidewalks are present in the subdivided
neighborhood areas immediately adjacent school
campuses,The Lakes at Northwest on FM 1889 south
Northwest Boulevard, and the neighborhood south of
Northwest Boulevard and Calallen High School. There is
generally shade provided by trees along these sidewalks
except for The Lakes at Northwest since this is a newer
subdivision replanted with younger, smaller trees.
However, there is no direct pedestrian connection between
the neighborhood surrounding Wood River Elementary
School and the neighborhood adjacent Calallen High
School. Older students residing in the Wood River
neighborhood have no formalized pedestrian connection
to Calallen High School, which is approximately one mile
away for about half of the neighborhood.
Eight signalized intersections are within the study area: at
Interstate 69E, Wildcat Drive, River East Drive, FM 69, River
Hill Drive, FM 1889/Trinity River Drive, Wood River Drive,
and CR 73. Marked crosswalks serve pedestrians in all
directions at the Northwest Boulevard intersections with
Wildcat Drive, River East Drive, and CR 69. At the River Hill
Drive, a marked crosswalk serves pedestrians crossing
River Hill Drive on the north side of the intersection. At
the Trinity River Drive/FM 1889 intersection, crosswalks
are marked across Northwest Boulevard on the west side
of the intersection and across Trinity River Drive. The
intersections of Northwest Boulevard at CR 73 or at Wood
River Drive do not provide any marked crosswalks.
While people may ride bikes on Northwest Boulevard’s

CAPTION:
One-reading ordinance amending the FY 2020 – 2021 Capital Budget to include Bond 2020
Propositions A, B, and C; appropriating $75,000,000 to the Capital Budget, and amending the
Capital Improvement Program by adding 42 Bond 2020 Program projects.
SUMMARY:
This ordinance amends the FY2020 – 2021 Capital Budget to appropriate $75,000,000 in
revenues and expenditures. Additionally, amending the Capital Improvement Program to include
22 Proposition A Street projects, 18 Proposition B Park and Recreation projects, and 2
Proposition C Public Safety projects that were approved in Bond 2020 Program.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
On November 3, 2020, voters approved the Bond 2020 Program for $75 million consisting of 42
projects. The City’s FY2020 – 2021 Capital Budget and Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
were approved on September 15, 2020, prior to the Bond 2020 approval. Therefore, the City’s
Capital Budget and CIP does not include the Bond 2020 Program funds and projects. This
Council action item will amend the Capital Budget to include the $75 million and CIP with the
approved Bond 2020 projects.
The Capital Budget will be amended to include the following propositions, projects, and
appropriate their respective budget.
Proposition A – Streets
22 Projects – $61 million
This proposition includes the designing, demolishing, constructing, renovating, improving,

ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative is not to amend the Capital Budget and the CIP. This would delay the
implementation of the Bond Projects.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact for FY2021 is appropriating $75,000,000 and increasing revenues and
expenditures by $75,000,000.
FUNDING DETAIL:
Refer to Exhibit A for specific funding information.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommendation is to amend the FY 2020-2021 Capital Budget and add the projects to the
Capital Improvement Plan.

CAPTION:
Resolution authorizing the negotiation and execution of 22 professional services contracts for
recommendation for Civil Engineering Services in an amount not-to-exceed $16,340,000 with
nine engineering consultants for the Bond 2020 Streets projects, located Citywide, with funding
available from the Streets Bond 2020 Fund.
SUMMARY:
This item is for the approval of the mass selection of design consultants for the Bond 2020
Streets projects. A total of 22 projects were approved by voters. Staff is recommending the
selection of the top nine scored firms to receive design contracts.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
On November 3, 2020, voters approved the City of Corpus Christi’s Bond 2020 Program for a
total of $75 million with 42 projects. The propositions passed on election day include projects for
streets, parks, and public safety improvements.
Proposition A – Streets projects includes a total of 22 projects with an estimated cost $61 million
for street improvements. This proposition allows for the designing, demolishing, constructing,
renovating, improving, extending and making permanent street, sidewalk, drainage and any
related improvements including underground utilities. The streets projects are located Citywide.
The Utilities costs have historically averaged approximately the same value as the surface
Bond 2020 Program Mass Selection of Design Consultants
Proposition A – Streets Projects
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Action Item for the City Council Meeting of March 16, 2021
improvements. General Obligation bonds are used to fund the surface improvements and the
underground improvements are funded with utility revenue bonds. The estimated total
construction cost for the Bond 2020 streets projects is, therefore, estimated to be $122 million.
This item will grant staff the ability to negotiate and execute professional services contracts with
nine design consultants for the 22 Bond 2020 streets projects with a total amount not to exceed
amount of $16,340,000. The estimate of $16,340,000 is based on the rough estimate of 10
percent of the estimated project cost and also includes the design only projects. Since there are
projects with design only, the overall design budget is higher than the 10 percent value of the
total Bond 2020 construction budget.
Traditionally, Engineering Services has presented Council with individual design contracts for
each project. This has created a large volume of agenda activity and delayed program
execution on past Bond programs. Staff is seeking this mass approval of the street design
contracts to expedite the execution of the Bond 2020 Program. The subsequent construction
contracts for the projects that are being designed will be competitively bid and presented to City
Council as individual action items.
Some Bond 2020 street projects are anticipated to begin design as early as March 2021. All
Bond 2020 street projects should enter the design phase by January 2022.
COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION PROCESS:
On November 30, 2020, the Contracts and Procurement Department issued a Request for
Qualifications for the engineering services with the RFQ Number 3343 for Professional
Engineering Services Bond 2020 Streets (Proposition A). The City received a total of 23
Statements of Qualifications. The selection committee consisted of representatives from the City
Manager’s Office, Engineering Services, and Public Works. On February 5, 2021, the selection
committee conducted interviews for 12 of the firms that were recommended by the evaluation
committee. Firms were ranked based on five factors: 1) firm’s experience and qualifications of
firm; 2) experience and qualifications of the project manager and key staff; 3) project approach
and management plan; 4) respondent capacity; and 5) respondent past performance.
The selection committee is recommending award to the following nine design consultants:
Ardurra Group, LLC
Freese and Nichols, Inc.
Halff Associates, Inc.
HDR Engineering, Inc.
Hanson Professional Services, Inc.
Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.
LJA Engineering, Inc.
Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc.
Urban Engineering
All of the selected firms are located in Corpus Christi. The consultants were matched with
appropriate projects based on the evaluation criteria. Attached is the City’s recommendation of
award for each street project. The 22 street projects have a first-choice recommendation and a
second-choice recommendation in the event that successful contract negotiations cannot be
completed with the first-choice recommendation.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative is to present these contracts to Council for individual consideration which will
delay execution of the Bond 2020 Program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact in FY2021 is an amount of $16,340,000 with funding available from the Streets
Bond 2020 Fund.
FUNDING DETAIL:
Fund: ST2021 Bond 20 Proposition A (Fund 3558)
Mission Elem: Street Pavement Maintenance (051)
Project: Mass Selection of Design Consultant (Project: 21045 to 21066)
Account: Outside Consults (550950)
Amount: $16,340,000.00
The design contracts will be initially funded through the General Obligation Bond proceeds.
Journal entries will be made after bids are received to allocate the utility design costs based on
the utility improvement costs in the successful bid.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council authorize staff to negotiate and execute 22 professional
services contracts for Civil Engineering Services in an amount not-to-exceed $ 16,340,000 with
nine engineering consultants for the Bond 2020 Streets projects, located Citywide, with funding
available from the Streets Bond 2020 Fund.

comment. Any marks made by the Designer do not constitute a blanket review of the
document submittal or relieve the Contractor from responsibility for errors or deviations

CAPTION:
Motion awarding Amendment Number 1 to Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc., Corpus Christi,
Texas, to provide additional preliminary design services to develop three drainage solution options
for North Beach drainage [navigable canal, open channel, and closed conduit], located in Council
District 1, in an amount of $123,745.00 for a total amount not to exceed $632,733.00, with FY 2021
funding available from the Storm Water Capital Fund.
SUMMARY:
This motion awards Amendment No. 1 to Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc., (LAN) to provide
additional preliminary design services to furnish cost estimates to develop three drainage solution
options for North Beach to include a navigable canal, open channel, and closed conduit system.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:
North Beach has been a tourist destination for over 100 years. Located on the far north end of
Corpus Christi, North Beach provides access to beaches, boat launches, shopping, restaurants,
and popular tourist attractions such as the Texas State Aquarium and USS Lexington.
North Beach experiences frequent flooding during high tide events. The high tide flooding causes
ponding in low-lying areas and impedes drainage from modest rainfall events. The ponding and
poor drainage has a negative impact on the area’s economic development. The North Beach
Drainage Assessment Report prepared by Urban Engineering has indicated that the construction
of a navigable canal could help mitigate the flooding issue. On June 23, 2020, Council authorized
Professional Services Amendment 1
North Beach Navigable Canal
a Professional Services Agreement with LAN for Phase I of the project. The phase I scope of
services was to define the navigable canal’s layout and project limits, determining if the navigable
canal would be functional for its intended uses of being navigable and providing drainage relief in
North Beach. Additional tasks included traffic impact analysis, water quality analysis, regulatory
permit considerations, real estate requirements review and the preparation of a final report.
On January 26, 2021, LAN briefed City Council on the results investigating the navigable canal’s
scope and project limits. There were several major findings presented. One of the major findings
presented by LAN stated that after 85% of the peninsula is raised a minimum of six and a half feet
in certain areas, and on average up to two to three feet, the canal could improve drainage for up to
a 50-year rainfall event. The canal would not improve drainage from a tidal surge of three and a
half feet or greater. The report stated that the canal could make tidal flooding surge worse by having
a body of water in the middle of a peninsula. A storm surge from a strong tropical storm or Category
1 hurricane would put 95% of the peninsula under water without having the peninsula elevated with
fill.
A second significant finding is that the storm sewer system on the eastern part of the peninsula
would have to be replaced and re-directed toward the canal rather than the current north and south
conveyance in place. Numerical modeling was conducted to evaluate water quality conditions that
may occur in the canal under various design layouts. Traffic pattern assessments done as part of
the Phase I study reveal that the proposed canal would cut off traffic from east to west across the
project entire area. Side streets that typically carried traffic from US181 to key destinations would
be cut-off, and traffic would have to be routed to bridged access point(s) depending on the final
design of the canal.
At the meeting, staff received policy direction from City Council to have LAN develop cost estimates
for three drainage solution options for North Beach to include a navigable canal, open channel, and
closed conduit system. This item will authorize the contract amendment and budget for those
services to be provided by LAN.
PROJECT TIMELINE:
The preliminary probable cost estimate work is expected to begin in March 2021 with estimated
completion in May 2021.
COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION PROCESS
The Contracts and Procurement Department issued a Request for Qualifications for the engineering
services for North Beach Navigable Canal. LAN was the only firm that submitted their qualifications.
A technical evaluation was performed by the selection committee. The technical evaluation team
consisted of seven team members including staff from the City Manager’s Office, Engineering
Department, Nueces County, Texas State Aquarium, and an external Engineer. LAN was
recommended as technically qualified to perform the work. This contract amendment is for Phase
II services that were contemplated under the original solicitation but not included in the Phase I
scope of work.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative is not to authorize the amendment which will cause the project to be on hold.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact in FY2021 is an amount of $123,745.00 with funding available from the Storm
Water Capital Fund. Specifically, available funding is in the North Beach Navigable Canal Project
budget. Currently, the FY 2021 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) does not have funds budgeted
for the additional design work. The CIP will be revised to show the additional design expenditures
in an amount of $123,745.00 for FY 2021.

Re: Proposal for North Beach Navigable Canal Project (Phase II)
Dear Mr. Edmonds ,
Based on our conversation on February 4th, attached is our proposal for completing Phase II of the North
Beach Navigable Canal project. Phase II will be an 8-week process consisting of LAN providing opinions
of probable project costs for three options for North Beach. As discussed, Option 1 are improvements to
the existing closed conduit /underground system, Option 2 is a new open channel, linear park and
greenway, Option 3 (A&B) are the two alternatives for a navigable canal presented in the LAN ’s Phase I
report. Since LAN has not investigated two of the three options in enough detail, some level of effor t
would be required to review pas t studies and develop refined layouts for each. Additionally, for LAN to
determine in sufficient detail the costs for utility relocations, we have included a small level of effort to
investigate existing utilities and catalog and map t hem for future consideration. Additional details and
project assumptions can be found in Attachment A.
We propose to complete these services on a lump sum basis for total contract amount of $123,745.00.
Please feel free to contact me at 361-792-7225 or by email at SMHarris @lan-inc.com, if you have any
additional questions.
Sincerely,
Scott M Harris , PE

Scope of Services and Summary of Fees
Overview
In December 2019, the City of Corpus Christi City Council passed an ordinance (# 031970) authorizing a
$41 Million dollar project on North Beach in Corpus Christi, Texas to design and construct a navigable
canal.
LAN recently completed Phase I of this project which advanced the concepts previously developed by the
City and finalized the navigable canal’s scope and project limits. Phase I’s ultimate objective was to
investigate the project for its intended use of being navigable and a improve drainage for the North Beach
area.
On January 26th, 2021, LAN briefed City Council on the results of the Phase I analysis and it was concluded
that three options would be further investigated for cost.
On February 4th, LAN met with the City Manager to discuss three options that LAN would provide cost
estimates for and receive direction from staff on how to proceed. The following options were approved:
Option 1 – Closed Conduit / Underground System
Option 2 – Open Channel / Linear Park
Option 3 – Navigable Canal (2 Alternatives)
Alternative A – Canal Exit to North
Alternative B – Canal Exit through Beach
Project Descriptions:
Option 1 – Closed Conduit / Underground System
This project does not provide for a new open ditch or navigable canal at North Beach. It provides for short
term improvements to the existing drainage systems . The improvements align with those
recommendations made by HDR in their 2018 Feasibility Study. Specifically, they call for a new reinforced
box culvert system in Surfside Boulevard, a new Outfall into Corpus Christi Bay at Breakwater Avenue,
installation of cross drainage culverts at intersections and driveways where necessary, and grading and
cons truction of roadside ditches including a new open ditch near Dolphin Park. Private properties would
not be raised to achieve positive drainage. See Exhibit 1 and additional assumptions below.
Option 2 – Open Channel / Linear Park
This project would provide for a new open drainage channel at North Beach that would include a
greenway or linear park along each side of the channel. The channel would not be navigable to boats but
would provide for improved drainage against rainfalls and higher than normal tides. This project generally
aligns with recommendations made by Urban Engineering in 2019 but adds several features that would
2
make it a destination for tourists / visitors. The channel will be a concrete lined trapezoidal channel,
approximately 20-feet wide at the bottom and 60 to 80-feet wide at the top (bank to bank). Pedestrian
facilities , shared use paths, and park amenities would line the channel. The channel would outfall to
Corpus Christi Bay near Dolphin Park and the Jetties , would integrate the existing wetlands , and include a
culvert on the south end of the project for circulation to the Bay. Streets would be raised along the
channel and in areas appropriate for construction of the system and to achieve positive drainage. In
addition to rights-of-way, this project would require raising of private properties to achieve positive
drainage into the proposed open channel. See Exhibit 2 and additional assumptions below.
Option 3 – Navigable Canals
This project would provide for a new navigable canal at North Beach, as evaluated for technical feasibility
in LAN’s Phase I Project Report. Two alternatives will be estimated:
Alternative A – Outfall at North Jetties - This Alternative provides for a rectangular channel with
a structural bulkhead approximately 8,000 linear feet long. The canal would be 65 to 100 -feet
wide (max) and 10-feet deep. Alternative A would outfall adjacent to the north jetties and include
a box culvert at Breakwater Avenue for circulation. See Exhibit 3A and additional assumptions
below.
Alternative B – Outfall thru Beach – This alternative provides for a rectangular canal with a
structural bulkhead approximately 5,600 linear feet long. The canal would be 65 to 90-feet wide
(max) and 10-feet deep. Alternative B would outfall through the beach adjacent to Burleson,
include a box culvert outfall to the wetlands and a box culvert outfall at Breakwater Avenue for
circulation. See Exhibit 3B and additional assumptions below.
Project Assumptions:
In addition to the project descriptions above, for the purposes of providing opinions of probable cost for
each of the project s , LAN will make the following assumptions:
1. Recommendations for all options will be based on the same design criteria, storms, and
provide the same benefit, using City of Corpus Christi Drainage Criteria Manual (DCM).
2. Options 2 and 3 will require to be constructed in two phases: Phase I – North of Burleson,
Phase II - South of Burleson, due to the Harbor Bridge construction; However, LAN will deliver
Total Project Costs for each and will not split the proposed costs by Phase.
3. Opinions of Costs will be based on 2021 dollars.
4. Phase II excludes maintenance costs associated with drainage structures, streets, and utilities.
5. Phase II excludes costs for jetties , groins, or breakwater structures that may be required for
beach erosion or to prevent siltation/sedimentation at canal exits ; further study is needed to
determine the costs of these structures; LAN assumes that this analys is would be performed
once one of the options were chosen to move to preliminary design.
Sitework / Earthwork / Dredging
6. To achieve the greatest benefit from any new stormwater system, properties need to be
raised; therefore, LAN will assume a maximum elevation of 6.5 -feet at the most upstream end
of the drainage basin and assume the site will slope downward towards the proposed
stormwater conveya nce improvements.
3
7. Dredging frequency and maintenance costs will be determined based on comparisons with
projects of similar nature; detailed modeling to qua ntify the amounts of siltation or
sedimentation occurring at the entrance/exits of the c hannels or within the channels will not
be performed during this phase of the project.
8. For Options 2 and 3 only, earthwork / fill will be costed based on a phased approach; LAN will
provide three separate opinions of costs for:
• Phase I - Public ROW and areas immediate adjacent to the drainage improvements
• Phase II - Privately owned lots at elevations lower than 3.5-feet
• Phase III - Privately owned lots at elevations higher than 3.5 -feet
9. Option 3 (A&B) will require dredging into Bay to a depth of 10 -feet for navigability
Structural
10. LAN will assume 30-foot bulkhead depth for Options 3A and 3B
11. Two costs for bulkhead material options will be pr ovided: structural steel and concrete
Mobility
12. Raising and widening of streets will be estimated based on a phased approach for each option:
• Phase I - Streets immediately adjacent to or required to be improved to support
proposed drainage improvements
• Phase II - Streets located in those areas that are prone to tidal flooding affects
13. Traffic Improvements (Capacity, Striping, Routing of Traffic) at Beach Avenue and US181 will
be included in costs for all options .
14. Option 2 - at-grade crossings / culverts will be assumed at all roadway crossings
15. Only Options 2 and 3(A&B) will include new pedestrian facilities within the drainage easement
/ ROW
16. Option 3A - two traffic crossings (bridge) will be assumed over the proposed navigabl e canal
at Beach Avenue and Bridgeport; the crossings will have accommodations for pedestrian
traffic as well as vehicle traffic
17. Option 3B - one traffic crossing (bridge) will be assumed over the proposed navigable canal at
Surfside / Burleson outlet to Ba y; Beach Avenue will include a new at -grade/culvert crossing
18. One pedestrian bridge will estimated for Option 3B, at a location to be determined
19. Proposed bridge crossings will be assumed to have a low chord of 20 -feet above water
surface.
Utilities
20. Options 2 and 3 will include relocations of three existing wastewater lift stations
21. Wastewater collection lines and force main within the drainage easements / ROW that
conflict with the proposed improvements (all options) will be relocated
22. Water - 12-inch PVC water main along east side of Surfside will remain in place but will require
to be lowered under canal for Option 3
23. Water distribution and laterals within the drainage easements / ROW that conflict with the
proposed improvements will be relocated for all options
24. Three underground city gas lines crossing the Timon Surfside corridor must be lowered below
the proposed drainage structures - all options
4
Real Estate and ROW
25. Options 2 and 3 assume that approximately 25 acres of private property will be required to
be acquired prior to construction of the drainage improvements south of Burleson.
26. Real Estate costs are not based on appraisals but typical local costs/acre for similar tracts of
land.
Environmental
27. Assume that coordination with USACE will be necessary for wetlands mitigation / avoidance
for all Options.
28. Assume an Individual Permit will be necessary
29. Assume no conflicts with cultural resources or threatened and endangered species
30. Assume Option 3 will require a lease from the GLO for submerged lands in the path of the
dredged navigable canal
5
Basic Services (Phase II – Proj ect Costs)
Phase II will consist of all efforts required to estimate the costs of each of the three options above:
Task 100 – Data Collection & Project Management
Task 101 – Conceptual Layouts & Existing Utilities
Task 102 – Opinions of Probable Project Costs
Task 103 – Technical Memorandum
Task 100 – Data Collection & Project Management
1. Data Collection
LAN will g ather and review readily-available reports and City-provided planning documents
including long and short -range plans, area development plans, capital improvement plans , GIS
data bases including streets and utility master plans. This will include a detailed review of HDR’s
2018 North Beach Report and Urban Engineering’s 2019 Report.
2. Meetings
a. Kickoff Meeting – LAN will conduct one (1) kick off meeting with the client to discuss the
clients ’ vision for the project, scope of work, schedule, budget, change management plan,
and deliverables.
b. Client Review Meeting – LAN will conduct one (1) client review meeting with the City to
present results from the various analyses and modeling , conceptual designs /layouts and
discuss opportunities and/or scope of project going forward.
c. Phase II Presentation - LAN will conduct one (1) presentation to City Council to present
results from the various analyses and modeling, conceptual designs/layouts and discus s
opportunities and/or scope of project going forward.
Task 101 – Conceptual Layouts & Existing Utilities
1. Conceptual Layouts
LAN will utilize the information gathered in Task 100 to develop conceptual level layouts for each
of the three options including improving those layouts presented for Options 3A and 3B in LAN’s
Phase I report according to discussion with the City staff.
Because two of the three options were not part of LAN’s Phase I Report, these options will require
exhibits to be made that align with the previous consultants recommendations and the vision /
direction of the City of Corpus Christi.
Conceptual site layouts will show proposed stormwater / drainage improvements (open channels,
ditches, underground conveyance systems), areas that will require to be raised to achieve positive
drainage and prevent routine tidal influence and ponding , street improvements, structures,
pedestrian facilities and park amenities . Layouts will delivered on 11x17 plan sheets with one (1)
typical cross section for each option. Options 3A and 3B cross sections presented in Phase I will
not change.
6
2. Existing Utilities Maps
a. Third-Party Utility Research – LAN will complete an 811 ticket to identify third-party
utilities that may be in conflict with pr oposed project improvements and include the
locations of those utilities on the existing utilities maps. This work will not include
subsurface utility engineering (SUE) or identifying the depth of existing utilities using pot -
holing or other SUE methodologies. LAN will complete one (1) phone call or virtual
meeting with each of the third-party utility owners to ask or answer questions about the
locations of their utilities.
b. LAN will utilize the GIS data collected from the City of Corpus Chris ti (Task 100) and
develop existing utility base maps for water, wastewater, stormwater, and gas utilities
using ARC -GIS software.
c. LAN will tabulate all existing utilities in a matrix spreadsheet. This tool could be used to
track conflicts and relocations as the project develops further.
Task 102 – Opinions of Probable Project Costs
1. Cost Determination
LAN will utilize the information gathered and research available databases such as the RSMeans,
TXDOT Statewide Monthly Construction Cost Averages, and CIVCAST, to develop conceptual level

CAPTION:
Ordinance approving the amended Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone #3 Project &
Financing Plan approved by the Board of Directors of Reinvestment Zone Number Three,
City of Corpus Christi, Texas on January 26, 2021.
SUMMARY:
This Ordinance approves the Sixth Amendment to the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone #3
Amended Project and Financing Plan, which will incorporate changes to both the Chaparral Street
Grant Program to include Mesquite Street in the Marina Arts District and the New Tenant
Commercial Finish-Out Grant Program to help expedite micro-grants to small businesses.
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
City staff and staff from the Downtown Management District (DMD) continuously evaluate and
seek opportunities to improve the TIRZ #3 Project and Financing Plan to stimulate growth within
the TIRZ #3. Since 2016 when five incentive programs were developed, the TIRZ #3 has utilized
all five programs to leverage approximately $10 million in incentives with over $168 million in
project development. In that time, property values for these developments have increased nearly
$35 million and are expected to significantly increase over the next few years as valuations catch
up to the larger and more recent developments, in addition to projects currently under
construction.
The last amendment to the Project and Financing Plan occurred on September 30, 2020 and
included changes in the programs to provide more aggressive incentives based upon the
remaining rehabilitation hurdles and economics across all five incentive programs.
To improve facilitation of downtown development projects, on January 26, 2021, the Tax
Increment Reinvestment Zone #3 Board made a motion to amend the Project and Financing Plan
to incorporate the following changes to two of the programs.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
First Reading for the City Council Meeting of March 16, 2021
Second Reading for the City Council Meeting of March 23, 2021
1) Chaparral Street Property Improvement Grant Program
a. Will be renamed the Vacant Building Rehab Program
b. The existing program was created to encourage specific types of development and
activate vacant buildings along Chaparral Street which is identified as a Main
Street for Downtown. While Chaparral Street is still a strong focus, the DMD has
identified property owners along Mesquite Street that are interested in activating
their vacant buildings where this program would facilitate that redevelopment. The
proposed new boundary for both streets would include North Chaparral Street from
Coopers Alley to I-37 and North Mesquite Street from Coopers Alley to I-37.
2) New Tenant Commercial Finish-Out Grant Program
a. The amendment will establish an administrative approval process for the New
Commercial Tenant Finish-Out Program for micro-retail applicants for a grant up
to $10,000. A “typical” micro-tenant occupies less than 1,500 square feet and has
a project cost of less than $50,000. Due to the success of the administrative
approval process for the Streetscape Program and the now quarterly meetings of
the TIRZ #3 Board, this would be an effective tool to move small projects forward
without the need to call a special TIRZ #3 meeting for approval. This program will
also be approved by the City Manager, or his designee, and administered by the
DMD and City Staff. Approved agreements will be reported to the TIRZ #3 Board
at the next Regular Meeting following the award.
ALTERNATIVES:
City Council could choose not to incorporate the sixth amendment to the Project and Financing
Plan or make recommended changes.

Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone #3
Amended Project & Financing Plan
Introduction
Tax Increment Financing is an economic development tool authorized by Chapter 311 of the Texas Tax
Code, through which governments can designate a portion of tax increment to finance improvements to
promote development of a defined area, called a “Reinvestment Zone.” The defined area must meet one
of the five criteria outlined in Chapter 311.
In 2008, through Ordinance 027996, the City of Corpus Christi created Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone
#3 (“TIRZ #3” or “the Zone”), over a portion of the city that includes the city’s Downtown area. There have
been three amendments to the ordinance; expansion of boundaries (April 2009), correction of
termination date (March 2012) and correction of board composition (August 2014). A change in the
economic climate immediately after the creation of TIRZ #3 hindered the performance of the fund and
prevented any investment from occurring.
Throughout this time, there has not been an update to the Preliminary Project & Financing Plan in the
2008 Ordinance. This document, the 2015 Amended Project & Financing Plan, is intended to replace the
previous Project & Financing Plan and any future amendments will modify this version.
This 2015 Amended Project & Financing Plan is based on research conducted for the Downtown Area
Development Plan (DADP), completed. Upon completion of the DADP, there will be an amendment to
refine aspects of the 2015 Amended Project & Financing Plan. TIRZ #3 consists of a Board of Directors
and is supported by the City Manager’s designee, currently the City’s Business Liaison, and the Executive
Director of the Corpus Christi Downtown Management District (DMD).
Second Amendment (FY 2017) – To continue and enhance the Zone’s efforts, this Amendment provides
for programming and services from the DMD; refines some of the Incentive Programs; and provides the
ability for TIRZ funds to be expended for public, cultural and/or historic properties within the Zone.
Updates also include the commitment from Del Mar College’s extended participation to the end of the
Zone.
Note: Schedule of Project Expenditures (Page 7) updated as Exhibit C – FY 2017 Project Plan Budget.
Third Amendment (FY 2018) – this Amendment renames the (5) Site Assembly & Development category
to (5) Site Management & Development and discusses a pilot vacant building program in the Reinvestment
Zone. Additionally, both (6) Parking Management and (7) Traffic Pattern and Streetscapes expand to
authorize funding for implementation. (8) Other Programs and Initiatives expands to include Cultural
District Plan, upon Board’s approval of the DMD’s FY 2018 Scope of Services.
Note: Schedule of Project Expenditures updated as Exhibit C – FY 2018 Project Plan Budget.
Fourth Amendment (FY 2019) – this Amendment extends the four Incentive Programs for an additional
3-year period and includes the new FY 2019 Budget as Exhibit C. It also provides an updated Sources of
Revenue table showing the projected revenue of the TIRZ over time.
City of Corpus Christi / Corpus Christi Downtown Management District
2 | P a g e
Fifth Amendment (FY 2021) – this Amendment incorporates implementation that occurred in FY 2020 and
refines parameters for more aggressive incentives for FY 21 based upon the remaining rehabilitation
hurdles and economics.
Sixth Amendment (FY 2021) – this Amendment modifies two incentive programs to expand their impact
– New Commercial Tenant Finish Out and Chaparral Street Property Improvement Grant.
Criteria for Zone Creation
The 2008 Project Plan stated that the defined area of TIRZ #3 qualified for designation as a “Reinvestment
Zone” because it suffered from “economic stagnation, inadequate infrastructure, and deteriorating
properties. Without intervention by the public sector, private market forces will not be sufficient to
generate significant development and redevelopment.” Conditions listed that met the Criteria of Chapter
311, Section 005 included:
A substantial number of substandard, slum, deteriorated, or deteriorating structures;
The predominance of defective or inadequate sidewalk or street layout;
Unsanitary or unsafe conditions;
The deterioration of site or other improvements; and
Conditions that endanger life or property by fire or other cause.
According to Chapter 311, these conditions must “substantially arrest or impair the sound growth of the
municipality or county creating the zone, retard the provision of housing accommodations, or constitute
an economic or social liability and be a menace to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare in its
present condition and use.”
Conditions in 2008 met these requirements, as indicated by the Market and Economic Study undertaken
at that time. While our community has benefitted from a boost in economic activity since 2008, the
Downtown did not see the same level of development. This solidifies the 2008 position that conditions
would not be overcome or corrected without significant intervention and assistance from the public
sector.
A Consistent Vision for Downtown
For decades, efforts had been made to improve and revitalize Downtown Corpus Christi, with various
levels of success. The 2006 Downtown Redevelopment Vision resulted in the creation of TIRZ #3, but a
change in environment prevented immediate implementation. Other efforts have included:
2004 – Bayfront Master Plan
2006 – Downtown Redevelopment Report
2013 – Central Business Development Plan
2014 – RUDAT
2015 – Downtown Area Development Plan
The 2006 Redevelopment Report vision statement is consistent with the vision illustrated in the 2015
Downtown Area Development Plan, which is currently in draft form.
“Downtown Corpus Christi is a safe, clean, pedestrian friendly community comprised of a central
business district, arts and culture, sports and entertainment areas. This unique vibrant waterfront
community will provide local residents, tourists and families’ opportunities to enjoy fine restaurants,
shops and residential facilities.”
City of Corpus Christi / Corpus Christi Downtown Management District

Anticipated Zone Role in Downtown Improvements
The 2008 Market and Economic Study indicated the nature of the intervention and assistance needed to
spur economic growth in different areas of the Zone. It stated that the “current structure of Corpus
Christi’s economy, the aging of existing development, and inadequate public infrastructure and facilities
together depress the viability of new development and redevelopment in Downtown.” The 2014 Analysis
of Residential Market Potential repeated those themes, with extra emphasis on residential development
and introduction of the concept of gap financing. Additionally, the 2015 environment has the new dynamic
of regional investment valued at tens of billions of dollars.
The primary functions of TIRZ #3 will be
• To Support Private Sector Development & Investment
• To Plan & Construct Public Improvements
• To Provide Revitalization Focused Programs & Services
The Zone is expected to be one of a variety of planned funding sources and programs that will be acting
in concert to accomplish a changed public environment in Downtown. By improving and enhancing
streets, sidewalks, and public spaces, plus upgrading utilities, the zone and the other programs will
encourage the development of new land uses and the redevelopment or rehabilitation of existing uses.
The intended result is that Downtown will become a vibrant and economically vital urban waterfront
district with a variety of residential, retail, and lodging uses, a strong office base, and popular public
facilities.
Project Plan
Existing Uses and Conditions/Boundaries §311.01 (b) (1)
The Zone includes approximately 856 acres wholly within the City of Corpus
Christi. Its boundaries encompass nearly all of the Downtown area. A very
wide variety of land uses are present within the TIRZ. The boundaries and
land uses within the Zone are shown in Exhibit A. The existing conditions
within the Zone are described generally below. A legal description of the
Zone with a specific accounting for the proposed boundaries is given in
Exhibit B. In the 2015 DADP, the identities of neighborhoods in the
Downtown were emphasized as way to build unifying identities and create
distinct experiences. Each of those regions is described generally below.
SEA District - A large area of publicly owned cultural and entertainment
facilities comprises the north end of the zone. These facilities include:
Port of Corpus Christi’s Ortiz Center
Corpus Christi Museum of Science & History
Art Museum of South Texas
Whataburger Field
American Bank Convention Center & Arena
Harbor
Playhouse
Brewster
Street Icehouse
Heritage Park – Restored Historic Homes, now used as Non-Profit Offices or Cultural Museums.
Moving south, the next few blocks vary between vacant, undeveloped land and low density residential,
bordered to the west by Port facilities and storage space, southeast by the Port of Corpus Christi Offices
and the Federal Courthouse. The southern portion of the SEA District also includes two restaurants, a
City of Corpus Christi / Corpus Christi Downtown Management District
4 | P a g e
vacant hotel, U-Haul, Fire Station #1 and the historic Nueces County Courthouse. IH 37 is the physical
southern border of this area, with the transition from a highway to on and off ramps coming to surface
grade.
Uptown – South of IH 37, a natural bluff distinguishes the high-rise, office building core of the Uptown.
Broadway marks a topo-graphical change as the edge of a bluff, and the higher elevation area to the west
of the street north of Lipan Street is characterized mainly by professional office uses, some in high-rise
towers. TIRZ #3 picks up two blocks of Uptown, with Tancahua as the west border. Of Downtown’s office
properties, only the Frost Bank building is one of two Class “A” properties. Overall occupancy for the
Downtown office market is around 80 percent.
Outside of the Zone, Uptown continues to include major government anchors, including Corpus Christi
Independent School District Offices, Nueces County Courthouse, a Regional Transportation Authority
Service Center and Corpus Christi City Hall.
Marina Arts District (Downtown Management District) – The area east of Broadway is lower in
elevation and features a walkable pedestrian grid with a mix of land uses, including hotels, office,
residential and retail. The boundary of this neighborhood is based on the petition of property owners
that created the Downtown Management District in 1993. This area is the historic center of Corpus Christi,
but many of the original buildings have been demolished, due to neglect or natural disasters. The last
large wave of construction occurred in the 1980’s. The most recent large scale private investment is
currently under construction, a $27 million residential property with ground floor retail, the
Cosmopolitan. The area is interspersed with surface parking lots and vacant, blighted property. In several
places, public spaces and sidewalks are in deteriorated condition.
Another unique feature of this neighborhood is the Corpus Christi Municipal Marina, spanning three man-
made T-heads along the Bayfront. The Marina is comprised of over 600 slips, several restaurants and the
Corpus Christi Yacht Club, the third oldest yacht club in the Gulf Coast.
Bayshore Park Neighborhood – At Kinney Street, the Zone gets divided by a redundancy of roadways
and a few vacant parcels. This portion of the Zone includes the YMCA, a Greek Orthodox Church, Episcopal
Church, Methodist Church and several parks. Additionally, there is a mix of early 20th century single family
homes and multi-family residential developments. The multi-family developments are truly a diverse mix,
including high rise and mid-rise, market rate and affordable, ownership and rental, constructed at all
different times with various architectural styles. Many of the original homes, especially at the south end
of the neighborhood, have been converted to professional office use. This neighborhood would lend itself
to the revitalization seen in older neighborhoods across the country, however an absence of
neighborhood support services prevents the unification necessary to create this self identity.
A potentially defining feature of this neighborhood is the 34 acres of park land for which the City is
currently undergoing a Design-Build process to complete a Bond 2008 project that relocated traffic lanes
to unite a patchwork of public space. The southeastern corner of the zone includes the Emerald Beach
hotel and Marina del Sol condominiums. This neighborhood abuts the Christus Spohn Shoreline hospital
complex. Christus Spohn Shoreline is just outside TIRZ #3 Boundaries, but the system is planning a $325
million investment in the community in the coming years.

Municipal Ordinances §311.011 (b) (2)
The City may modify existing ordinances in order to make the area in and around TIRZ #3 more friendly to
the types of residential and recreational activity desired. Some other policies that will be updated include
building design, setbacks and streetscape requirements, in order to establish a built environment that
supports the downtown character.
City Planned Improvements (Non Project Costs) §311.011 (b) (3)
The City of Corpus Christi has over $ million in improvement projects currently funded and in some stage
of planning or construction, independent from this TIRZ #3 Project Plan. The City will continue to use
Bonds packages a major source of public improvement funding.
Relocation §311.011 (b) (4)
No relocation of existing residents is anticipated to be required as part of the Project Plan.
Financing Plan
Estimated Project Cost Description (§311.011 (c) (1) & Kind, Number and Location of TIRZ
Improvements §311.001 (c) (2)
TIRZ #3 is anticipated to participate in projects that support the development and economic activity
projected in the DADP, especially when cost of development creates a gap due to utility or infrastructure
conditions. The initial focus is on residential and mixed-use development. Exceptions may be made to the
guidelines below for catalytic projects with Board approval. Such changes will be incorporated at the next
Project Plan Amendment.
1. Chaparral Street Targeted Vacant Property Improvement Grant Program – This three-year matching
grant program will support and encourage private investment in the built environment along
Chaparral Street and Mesquite Street for active businesses. Due to its “Main Street” characteristics
and its function of connecting the Marina Arts District (Downtown Management District Boundary)
and SEA District, Chaparral Street is a first phase priority for successful revitalization of the Zone.
During FY 2016-2021, TIRZ #3 will make $200,000 available per year to match approved property
improvements funded by the property owners. The Zone will consider from a 50/50, on renovation
costs, depending on how the scope of the project meets the priorities of the Zone. A 20% incentive
cap had been adopted for FY 16 – FY 20 but this will be waived for FY 21. A max of $100,000 is available

for a single project in a single fiscal year. Applications will be accepted until the allocation is exhausted
for each fiscal year. In FY 2021, the program will be extended to Mesquite Street in the Marina Arts
District to facilitate development of targeted vacant buildings.
2. New Tenant Commercial Finish-Out Grant Program– In order to activate vacant spaces, support
mixed-use developments and the demand for more dining and entertainment venues in the
Downtown, the Zone will reimburse approved leasable new tenant finish-outs at a maximum rate of
$10 per square foot. Additionally, since it has become clear that existing inventory is not white box
ready, 50% of Mechanical, Electrical or Plumbing Costs (Up to $20,000) will be available to the landlord
with a new tenant if that landlord provides a 6-month rent waived lease. First-floor, active street use
projects will be a priority consideration. During FY 2016- 2021, $100,000 will be allocated annually.
Qualified finish out expenses include: floor and wall upgrades, HVAC, kitchen equipment, awnings and
other permanent, semi-permanent fixtures. Grant is reimbursable to the Tenant, but written approval
must come from Landlord in application. Applications will be accepted until the allocation is exhausted
for each fiscal year.
This program will also be available for expedited $10,000 micro -grants to be approved by the City
Manager, or his designee, and administered by DMD and City Staff. Approved agreements will be
reported to TIRZ #3 Board at the next Regular Meeting following award.
3. Downtown Living Initiative – The Residential Demand Study conducted for the DADP stated that over
the next 5 years, 1,850 new units could be absorbed in the greater downtown if the threshold made
investment attractive. Apartment occupancy was 94.2% in the first Quarter of 2015 (industry
considers 96% to be full occupancy). In order to stimulate development, for FY 2016-2021, the Zone
will provide a $10,000 per unit reimbursement grant for multi-family developments of over 3units
that meet the required design criteria. Applications will be accepted until the allocation is exhausted
for each fiscal year, and allocations may be split between years and committed in advance.
4. Project Specific Development Agreement – In situations where higher development costs create a
financing gap, TIRZ #3 can provide assistance to property owners or developers through a
Development Agreement for reimbursement of net new tax increment. A pro-forma is required to
qualify for up to 75% reimbursement of the new taxes for 10 years if a development is 5,000 sq. ft or
creating 25 or more new residential units. If further gap exists, staff will undertake additional third
party review to justify any additional reimbursement, based on the “but, for” principle. The qualifying
cost elements for this Program include:
Environmental Remediation/Code Compliance
Historic Preservation
Structured Parking
Urban Design/Landscaping
Public Improvements/Utilities
Further, Residential Developments over 10 Units may be considered as an individual cost element For
catalytic projects with per unit development cost above $100,000, a 10% threshold will be considered
based on available funding, up to $20,000 per unit.

5. Site Management & Development – Beginning in FY 2017, TIRZ #3 will develop a program to facilitate
activation of vacant properties within the Zone and propose to City Council adoption of a downtown
vacant building ordinance. The program will establish minimum requirements for vacant properties
and designate registered properties as eligible for incentives or emergency funding. Funding will be
allocated to establish and administer the program.
In order to activate strategically located properties, TIRZ #3 may place properties under option and
work towards developing proposals for development, then assist in acquisition and development of
the properties. Additionally, the Zone may purchase properties outright for redevelopment and
dispose of properties, if approved by the Board.
Under this initiative, funding may also be expended for stabilization or redevelopment of public,
cultural and/or historic properties.
6. Parking Study & Development– In key locations where parking is undersupplied or inadequately
distributed, the Zone can assist in providing public parking facilities such as on-street spaces or off-
street lots and structures. TIRZ #3 will conduct a study in FY 2016 in order to develop a strategic
approach for parking in the Downtown and fund implementation steps. Additionally, the Zone may
support any efforts City may undertake for appropriate parking management infrastructure such as
meters, lot improvements, structured garages and occupancy monitoring systems.
7. Traffic Pattern Study & Streetscapes – TIRZ #3 may contribute to studies for traffic movement and
improvements in roadway infrastructure (repaving, repair, widening, redesign), traffic management
infrastructure (signals, signs), and beautification (landscaping in medians, special lighting, etc.) The
Zone will contribute up to $150,000 for a traffic pattern study as the first phase of this initiative.
Additionally, pedestrian accommodations and streetscapes will be a priority. Funds may also be
expended on implementation of infrastructure improvements, as budgeted and listed below:
Streetscape Program – Funding $200,000 for Right of Way and Façade improvements to increase
lighting and security beginning FY 18, funded annually after. Micro-grants are able to be
administered by DMD and City Staff.
Artesian Park - $150,000 Initial Funding in FY 20, then $50,000 Annual for La Retama & Artesian.
Two Way Conversion Shoreline to Water Street – Up to $400,000 (Funded FY 20, Rolled to FY 21)
General Right of Way Maintenance - $50,000 Annually.
Broadway Bluff Maintenance and Repair Assessment - $150,000 (Funded FY 20, Rolled to FY 21)
8. Other Programs & Initiatives – TIRZ #3 will develop other programs and initiatives that will be
presented to the Board for approval, during the life of the Zone. Each year, the following initiatives
are being added:
FY 2017 - Downtown Management District Bike Share Initiative
FY 2017 - Downtown Management District Expanded Scope of Services
City of Corpus Christi / Corpus Christi Downtown Management District
8 | P a g e
FY 2018 – Downtown Management District – Cultural District Plan, TIRZ #3 Incentive Programs,
registration process for downtown vacant building program, Streetscape Safety & Right of Way
Improvement Program and Off-Street Parking Improvement Program.
FY 2019- Unified brand implementation and expanding organizational and operational capacity.
FY 2020- Implementation of approved projects from TIRZ #3 Traffic & Planning Analysis,
specifically Artesian Park Upgrades.
FY 2021- Capital Maintenance for public spaces and right of ways throughout the zone and
continued capital maintenance.
9. Management & Professional Services- Zone funds will compensate for the costs of ongoing
administration of the Zone, including but not limited to accounting, legal services, consulting services,
document production and maintenance, and other administrative costs. These costs were originally
estimated at $50,000 per year for the 20-year life of the Zone, but to date the only dollars expended
have been for state reporting requirements. Staff plans to strategically engage outside resources to
evaluate revenue projections and continue to develop innovative, effective programs.
Economic Feasibility Study §311.011 (c) (3)
The 2008 Market and Economic Feasibility Study for TIRZ #3 was completed by CDS Market Research l
Spillette. In 2014 and 2015, Goody Clancy completed additional studies that reflect the more recent
environment, and emphasize the importance of residential development in any revitalization. Those
studies include:
Residential Market Potential (Zimmerman/Volk) – final
Retail Market Analysis & Strategy (Mike Berne) – draft
Hotel, Office, Retail (W-ZHA, Sarah Woodworth) – draft
Incentives & Development Economics (W-ZHA, Sarah Woodworth) – draft
Estimate of Bonded Indebtedness §311.011 (c) (4)
It was not anticipated that TIRZ would issue bonded debt, but would be funded on a pay-as-you-go basis.
If the annual revenue and available non-bonded debt financing are insufficient to address the needs of
TIRZ #3, we may issue bonded debt commensurate with the specific project costs under consideration
and anticipated annual Zone revenues to support debt service payments.
Timing of Incurring Costs or Monetary Obligation §311.011(c) (5)
Costs will be incurred over the life of the Zone based on its Board of Directors’ identification of priority
activities and projects, opportunities for implementation, and available revenues to sustain a pay-as-you-
go project expenditure approach.
The following table summarizes proposed planned expenditures for TIRZ #3 until FY 2019. Another set of
programs will be proposed in FY 2018, based on an assessment of needs at that time.

Method of Financing and Sources of Revenue §311.011(c) (6)
Methods of Financing. TIRZ #3 will initially take a primarily pay-as-you-go approach to financing projects
that could utilize the following methods:
Cash funds generated from existing property value increment,
Developer cash reimbursement agreements where the revenues from the Zone’s property tax
increment compensate a developer for fronting eligible expenditures in a specific taxable project.
If future Zone revenues to support debt service payments are anticipated, the Zone may also issue
bonded debt, the term of which will not extend past the expected life of the Zone.
Sources of Revenue. The primary source of revenue for TIRZ #3 will be funds from the contributed
property tax collections of the City of Corpus Christi, Nueces County, and Del Mar College on the taxable
property value increment within TIRZ #3. The City, County, and Del Mar College have agreed to participate
in funding TIRZ #3 with 100% of the incremental property taxes collected over the life of the Zone.. The
assessed value base year for the City of Corpus Christi is 2009; the base year or Nueces County and Del
Mar College is 2010. The 2018 adjusted projection of incremental property tax revenue contributed to
the Zone is as follows:
