The additional insurance premium payments for the three year policy will be $7,772 this year, $5,830 for 1973-74, and $5,829 for 1974-75 or a total of $19,431. f. That property located at the northeast corner of Airline Road and Holly Road be rezoned on Tract "A" from "R -1B" One -family Dwelling District, to "A-1" Apart- ment House District, and on Tract "B" from "R -1B" One -family Dwelling District to "B-4" General Business District (Application of A. L. Rankin). This action concurs with the recommendation of the Planning Commission and with action taken at the Council hearing September 6, 1972. The ordinance was delayed while waiting for the proper legal description and further as the property was confused with another zoning request of the same property owner. The description was provided approximately 3 months after the hearing, or several months prior to the 6 month zoning action deadline after the hearing by the City Council. g. That the City execute an agreement between the Texas Mexican Railway Company, the State of Texas and the City for the construction of a plank railroad crossing at the intersection of South Staples and Holly Road. The state and the rail- road jointly are to lower the railroad tracks and construct a plank crossing and the City is to maintain the advance warning signs in reference to such crossing. This work is required as part of the South Staples Street Improvements from Padre Island Drive to Saratoga, a joint project between the City and the State Highway Department. h. That the City Manager be authorized to accept an FAA Grant offer for the federal share of 82% of the cost of acquisition of a crash -fire -rescue vehicle for Corpus Christi International Airport and 75% of the cost of security perimeter fencing for a total federal share of $65,000. Authorization was granted June 13, 1973 for • Minutes Regular Council Meeting June 27, 1973 Page 3 acceptance on a 50% basis. President Nixon has approved the new airport development act which increases participation in aviation projects, but prohibits the adoption or enforcement of airport user or "head" taxes. i. That Section 38-55A of the City Code be amended to change the interest rate on monthly payments Wastewater (sewer) extension front foot contracts from 6-1/2% to 5-1/4% to reflect the City's cost of borrowing money and further encourage connections to the sewer system. As of March 1, 1973, sewer service was available to 2610 occupied properties for which no application for service has been received. j. That Council approval be granted to submit a grant application to the Criminal Justice Council for LEAA funding ($25,000) for an Organizational Survey of the Police Department.

That the Bay Drilling Ordinance No. 8294 be amended to regulate the oil and gas industry practices in that Corpus Christi Bay and Laguna Madre area annexed December 13, 1972 by Ordinance 11,201. This amendment adopts all safety and protec- tive practices for the annexed area and treats it as though it were part of the Nueces Bay portion of the basic Bay Drilling Ordinance thereby exempting the new area from the cluster concept. The amendment establishes a Flour Bluff Park and Recreation Area within a prohibited zone extending outward from the Flour Bluff shoreline an average distance of 600 feet and in some cases up to 2,000 feet. No further drilling is permitted in this Park Area except for replacements. The amendment also extends the Bay Park and Recreation Area around the Naval Air Station. It eliminates some 320 -acre State Tracts from the cluster concept and prohibits the use of mechanical. pumping units anywhere in the water area. It prohibits the erection of further storage tanks without Bay Drilling Committee and Council approval and then only in 1,000 barrel compartmentalized sections. The amendment provides a three-year period in which all practices in the newly annexed area must comply with the Fire Prevention Code, except the diking provision of that Code and a five-year period in which to comply with the diking provision. 1.

That the lease with the Corpus Christi Airport Development Corporation, which was approved on first reading April 4, 1973, with the following City Manager's recommendation: "That a: lease be approved with the Corpus Christi Airport Development Corporation for a ten acre tract on airport property at the west corner of the service road to the terminal and Highway 44 for industrial develop- ment. The Corpus Christi Airport Development Corporation, a non profit corporation, will construct a building on the leased premises for lease to a manufacturing company. Initial employment is expected to be 135 of which about 100 women will be employed for assembly type operations. Others will be engineers and office staff. The rent will be based on a 5-1/4% return per year on the estimated cost of the land ($50,000)" be amended to incorporate the changes recommended by the various attorneys involved which still carry out the basic understandings in the lease as it was read on April 4, 1973. n. That authority be granted to receive proposals at 11:00 a.m., Tuesday, July 17, 1973 for the rental of approximately 15,000 square feet of interior office space for the following City Departments; Finance Department - 10,680 sq.ft. located on not more than two floors; and Data Processing Department - 4,320 sq.ft. all located on one floor. All 15,000 sq.ft. is requested to be located in one office building located within a radius of one mile from City Hall. This office space is critically needed to relieve the overcrowded space conditions now existing in these departments and provide additional space for other departments located at City Hall. o. That an ordinance be passed amending the Revenue Sharing Budget for the first entitlement period by: (1) Deleting the appropriation for the 5% salary increases for certain Police and Health and Welfare activities, and appropriating $67,190 for the purchase of 19 police vehicles. The appropriation for 19 vehicles in the general fund will be cancelled and the funds used for the 5% salary increases in the abovementioned activities. This action is necessary to prevent the use of Revenue Sharing funds as matching funds against Federal Grants. (2) Deleting the appropriations of $5,000 for reduced green fees for the elderly at the Oso Golf Course, $5,000 for reduced bus rates for the elderly, $13,525 of the $148,000 appropriation for the Oso Wastewater Treatment Plant expansion and appropriating $23,525 for the purchase of 25 walkie-talkies for the Police Department. The reductions in revenue will be absorbed in the General Fund next fiscal year and the treatment plant land included in another entitlement period. • Minutes Regular Council Meeting June 27, 1973 Page 5 The question was raised as to whether or not Mayor Pro Tem Acuff and Commissioner Ricardo Gonzalez should be disqualified from voting on the zoning case of A. L. Rankin if they had previously cast votes as members of the Planning Commission when the case was heard by the Commission July 25, 1972. City Attorney Riggs stated that a search of the law was being made and he would submit a legal opinion in this regard by tomorrow night before public hearings are held on 11 scheduled zoning cases. He pointed out that only a majority vote of the. Council is required on the case in question and would therefore suggest that they disqualify themselves from voting on the ordinance since the other five members have indicated an affirmative vote and their votes would not affect the outcome. Motion by Lozano, seconded by Tom Gonzales and passed, that the City Manager's Reports, Items "a" through "o", be accepted, and that the requests and recommenda- tions be granted and approved as presented by City Manager Townsend. City Manager Townsend reviewed the ordinances listed on the Agenda, and read a proposed amendment to the lease with Corpus Christi Airport Development Corporation of a 10 -acre tract of land at the Airport before its second reading by substituting a lease and sublease for said lease and sublease contained in the ordinance on first reading. Motion by Lozano, seconded by Acuff and passed, that the ordinance authoriz- ing the City Manager to enter into an agreement of lease with the Corpus Christi Airport Development Corporation for the leasing by the said Corpus Christi Airport Development Corporation of a 10 -acre tract of land at the Corpus Christi Interna- tional Airport, read on the first of three readings on April 4, 1973, be amended before the second reading by substituting the Lease and Sublease attached thereto for the said Lease and Sublease contained in the ordinance on first reading. Mr. John Reuthinger, representative of a group called Americans in Action, read a proposed resolution opposing the ordinance which would change the schedule of garbage and trash collection from three days per week pickup to two days per week pick up. He stated the group opposes any reduction in the present service and believes another method other than collection reduction should be worked out to reduce the owrk week of sanitation workers, and that if the services are cut then the rate should also be cut. He stated a poll by the organization showed 85 percent of the people contacted were opposed to the collection reduction and 75 percent • • Minutes Regular Council Meeting June 27, 1973 Page 6 stated they would have to purchase new trash cans under the new system. He stated the opposition was based on increase of clutter, rodents and insects, odors and maintenance cost for garbage containers, all of which they felt were valid complaints. City Manager Townsend stated the recommendation was on the grounds that this was the only way, based on miles, men and equipment, to give sanitation workers a five-day work week without raising taxes or collection fees to hire more workers. He stated that most cities in this country only have twice a week collections and some are on a once a week basis. He explained that the proposal had not come in haste but had been under consideration for three years and had almost been adopted two years ago; that it had been discussed in at least five meetings during the last twelve months, and that it was specifically included in this year's program. He stated it had been delayed because the Staff wanted it to be simultaneous with the opening of the new Land Fill. Others appearing in opposition to the proposed reduction in garbage collection were: Mrs. Levi Materne, 325 Ohio, stated she was speaking as an individual and concurred in statements made by Mr. Reuthinger; Mr. Paul Vogler complained that dogs would destroy plastic bags, that new cans would have to be purchased, and suggested that the ordinance be tabled; Mrs. Sidney McCampbell, 1605 Devon, stated she felt this decision should be made by the citizens of the City and not by the Council. She stated the present salaries of the sanitation workers were inadequate. Mr. Kanipe asked for clarification of the emergency clause as applied to this ordinance and stated he was opposed to the proposed change in schedules. Commissioner Branch commented that it was his understanding that the reduc- tion in service would be on a six months trial basis during which time all aspects would be studied to determine if hardships developed, at which time corrective action could be taken.

The Charter Rule was suspended and the foregoing ordinance was passed by the following vote: Luby, Branch, Acuff, Gonzales, Gonzalez, Lozano, and Stark, present and voting "Aye" . Mayor Luby called for petitions or information from the audience on matters not scheduled on the agenda. Commander Travis Parker, Corpus Christi Post 1070 World War I Veterans, complained that the benefits for the Aged were planned by the Council and others, with- out consulting their organization which they considered a discourtesy. He termed the proposed committee a bureaucracy which will consume too much of the program's funds, stated the programs should be directed to serve the greatest number of people, comment- ing that most people do not play golf and this reduction in fees would benefit only one- tenth of one percent of the elderly in the City. Mrs. Evelyn Wilson, Director of Programs for the Aged at St. Luke's Methodist Church and member of the Board of SAGE, did not agree with Cmdr. Parker, stating the program was initiated by elderly people from various local groups and the benefits are for every known aged group in the area. She stated she felt Mr. Parker had been • • Minutes Regular Council Meeting June 27, 1973 Page 10 misinformed and that the program had not been initiated by bureaucrats. City Manager Townsend expressed regret if they had failed to contact any group of older citizens of the community, and if so, it would be done promptly. He explained that all groups had been contacted of which there was knowledge; that the whole concept of the program had been to find ways to help the groups fund their programs, to fill the void in the programs, and to find ways to spread the levels of service and dollars as far as possible. Assistant City Manager Archie Walker explained the program, stating it is experimental and will be amended according to the feedback received from the elderly. Mr. Paul Vogler appeared and complained of discussions which he alleged had been held in Council Workshop this morning regarding signs displayed around town. He stated he wished to point out that the signs are of a personal matter to the Mayor, are legally placed on private property with the owners' permission, and are in properly zoned areas, did not feel there was any discrimination involved in leaving them up after the election, and did not want any harassment from the Council Mayor Pro Tem Acuff explained that the workshop discussion had been directed to another matter and there had been no reference to a political candidate. City Manager Townsend reported that a meeting of the Council of Governments had been scheduled for Friday of this week at which time a controversial matter will be brought up, and in view of this item, the Council should have full representation. He suggested that the City's representation be brought up to date by filling the vacancies created by the change in elected officials. Motion by Acuff, seconded by Stark and passed, that the following appoint- ments and reappointments be made: Elected Officials (regular members), Mayor Luby, replacing former Mayor Ronnie Sizemore, Commissioner Acuff, replacing Thomas V. Gonzales, Commissioners H. T. Branch, Gabe Lozano, Sr and J. Howard Stark; Elected Officials (alternates), Ricardo Gonzalez, replacing Charles A. Bonniwell, and Tom Gonzales, replacing Roberto Bosquez; Non -Elected Officials (regular members) City Manager R.

There being no further business to come before the Council, motion by Acuff, seconded by Stark and passed, that the meeting be adjourned at 4:30 p.m., June 27, 1973.
