Mayor Lozano announced the scheduled public hearing on the following matter:
Receive Planning Commission and staff recommendations and obtain views and
proposals from the public for the 5th Year Community Development projects.
City Manager R. Marvin Townsend explained that the Community Development
program requires that the report of the Planning Commission and the staff recommen-
dation must be received prior to submission of the application. He informed the
Council that next week, the Council will be requested to take action on the recom-
mendation of the Planning Commission for the use of the Community Development funds.
Mr. Townsend then asked Mr. Ernest Briones, Director of Planning and Urban Development,

to explain.
Mr. Briones explained to the Council that this public hearing is the second
of three hearings conducted and the third hearing will be held next week on March 14,
following which the application for Community Development funds will be submitted.
Mr. Tom Utter, Director of Neighborhood Improvement Division, presented the
Council with supportive material, including a memorandum in regard to the 5th Year
Community Development Program and an explanation of the method by which the appli-
cation is being developed.
Mr. Briones briefly reviewed the Community Development program for the
past years; the Housing Assistance Plan; the status of CDBG Rehabilitation Loan
Program, including the funds that have been disbursed from this program and the
funds remaining in the loan program.
Mr. Briones informed the Council that a number of meetings in regard to the
5th Year Program have been conducted to obtain input from various groups in regard
to the disbursement of the funds. Mr. Briones also called the Council's atten-
tion to a booklet containing information that will be provided for the public in
regard to the Block Grant Program for 1979-80. He explained the map of the Census
Tracts of Corpus Christi which are eligible for participation under the Housing
and Community Development Act of 1977.
Council Member Diaz asked if there is any way that citizens who reside
outside the Census Tracts can obtain assistance through this program, and Mr.
Briones replied that if a dire need exists, particularly for citizens over 65
years of age, they could possibly be qualified for some type of assistance.
Mr. Briones continued his presentation by referring to the letter of
recommendation from the Planning Commission in which they recommended how the
disbursement of the allocation in the total amount of $5,247,000 should be made,
plus the reprogramming of $280,000 remaining from last year.
City Manager Townsend referred to the recommended funding in the amount
of $50,000 for rehabilitation of the Boys Club and stated that the staff may have
a different recommendation on this item.
Mr. Briones stated that he would like to explain an item in this same
category and informed the Council that the Women's Shelter, Inc. had requested

Regular Council Meeting

Page 3
$82,000 in order to purchase and remodel the building they occupy, but the Planning
Commission has recommended an allocation of $10,000 for this organization.
Mr. Briones also explained that BID, Inc. requested $67,000, but the
Planning Commission recommends an allocation of $50,000.
Council Member Diaz referred to the designation under Planning for $10,000
for the Agnes Street study and suggested that other streets need to be studied also.
Mr. Briones explained that the entire recommended amount is $100,000, and
the Planning Commission felt that the particular designation of $10,000 would be
appropriate since this was the street recommended for rehabilitation by the recent
R/UDAT study.
Council Member Juarez inquired about the reduction for BID, Inc. from
$67,000 to $50,000.
Mr. Romeo Garcia, Chairman of the Planning Commission, informed the Council
that there were numerous other requests that were presented to the Commission that
were not granted and stated that he is very pleased with the similarity between the
City Staff's and Planning Commission's recommendations. Mr. Garcia stated that the
Agnes Street study was the result of the R/UDAT recommendation, and the Commission
felt that such a study should be made. In regard to the BID proposal, Mr. Garcia
stated that the original request included funds to employ consultants, and the
Planning Commission felt that $50,000 would be a good recommended allocation. He
also informed the Council that the request from the Women's Shelter was drastically
reduced because it was felt that they would be eligible for United Way funding and
private source funding.
Council Member Holt inquired if the staff felt that $10,000 was ample for
the Agnes Street study, and Mr. Briones stated that this is not an extra $10,000
but is a part of the money allocated for street planning.
City Manager Townsend further explained that this would just be to examine
the possibilities for the street improvements that have been suggested. He pointed
out that the staff requested $100,000 be allocated for planning study on the entire
street program, and the Planning Commission just suggested that $10,000 of that
amount be allocated for this particular street.
Council Member Gill asked if funds might be available from another source
for this purpose, and Mr. Briones replied that there are several other sources for

funding for this purpose.
Council Member Gill referred to the listing under Economic Development for
Street and Sidewalk Improvements -Downtown and stated that she understood that funds
were designated last year to improve the curbs in the downtown area for the handi-
capped.
City Manager Townsend stated that this project is still in the budget, but
the design staff of the Engineering Department Just has a limited amount of time
to design these improvements.
Council Member Gill mentioned how difficult it is for people in wheelchairs
to even get to the La Retama Library and asked if temporary ramps could be installed
until the design staff can accomplish this work.
City Manager Townsend stated that if the Council feels that this is a high
priority project, then the Engineering Department can proceed with this project
immediately, but at this time, it is listed as a part of other needed improvements.
Mr. Townsend also explained that temporary ramps would not completely solve the
problem for the handicapped because of the lack of parking facilities, etc. He
stated that if the primary concern is access to La Retama Public Library, he will
have the staff study the possibilities there, but the entire downtown area will
require approximately one year before the project is ready.
Mayor Pro Tem Gulley pointed out that the installation of ramps might prove
to be a handicap for the blind since the seeing -eye dogs do not recognize that a
curb is there when a ramp has been installed over it.
Mayor Lozano invited members of the audience to comment on the Community
Development Program.
Mr. Mario Hernandez, representing BID, Inc., referred to their request
for funds which included their proposal to develop improvements in the downtown
area of Corpus Christi. Mr. Hernandez also presented to the Council copies of
their original budget and a letter of recommendation from the Central Business
District.
No one else spoke in regard to this matter.
Motion by Gulley that the hearing be closed, seconded by Diaz, and passed
unanimously.

City Manager Townsend reminded the Council that the final public hearing
on this matter will be conducted on March 14 prior to submission of the application
to the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Mayor Lozano announced the public hearing on the following matter:
Closing and abandoning a 10 -foot wide alley situated within Block 1103,
Fitchue Place Addition, bounded by Ayers Street, 14th Street, Brownlee
Boulevard and McKenzie Street.
City Manager Townsend stated that the public hearing was advertised to the
effect that the alley is proposed to be closed for the entire block. He informed
the Council that the applicant just proposes to close the portion of the block that
contains the property that he owns.
City Secretary Read stated that the applicant actually desires that the por-
tion of the alley from Lots 13 thru 52 within Block 1103, Fitchue Place Addition,
be closed rather than the alley in the entire block. He also verified that he has
letters in the file from property owners abutting these lots expressing no opposi-
tion to closing this portion of the alley.
Mayor Lozano called on those who wished to speak in opposition to the
closure of this portion of the alley.
Mr. James Klager, Attorney representing several property owners in the 1103
Block, stated that since the request for closure has been amended to just include
the lots specified, then these property owners would not be opposed to this closure.
Motion by Sample that the hearing be closed, seconded by Diaz, and passed
unanimously.
Motion by Gulley that the portion of the alley extending northward from
Lot 13 thru 52, Block 1103, Fitchue Place Addition, be closed; seconded by Holt;
and passed unanimously.

postmark on the envelope containing Williamson's bid and the bid are dated
February 16, 1979, the bid was received after the bid opening date. Since
Wiliamson is the only known manufacturer, acceptance of the late bid is recom-
mended.

the remainder of the City Manager's Reports.
Mayor Lozano called for comments or questions on Items "a" thru "m" of the
City Manager's Reports.
There was no response.
Motion by Gill that the City Manager's Reports, Items "a" thru "m," be
approved; seconded by Holt; and passed unanimously.
City Manager Townsend proceeded with the following items and recommended
that:
n. $612 be appropriated from the Airport Bond Fund for appraisal services by
Mr. Sidney H. Smith III for one parcel of land in connection with International
Airport - Runway 31 Approach Light System. The parcel is located on Joe Mireur
Road (F.M. 763) between Bear Lane and the intersection of McGloin and Joe Mireur
Roads and contains 4.576 acres of vacant land. Once purchased, the site will
be leased to the Federal Aviation Administration for installation of a light
system for instrument landings on the southeast runway.
o. The General Fund be reimbursed $42,749.32 for engineering on various bond and
community development projects during December, 1978, and $18,845.45 be
appropriated to supplement $23,903.87 of existing appropriations. Reimbursements
include: Street ($5,594), Airport ($10), Sanitary Sewer ($4,367), Park ($1,692),
Storm Sewer ($3,484) and Community Development Projects ($3,700). Major projects
include Casa Blanca ($2,195); Ella Barnes ($11,729), and Lozano Area ($6,217)
streets and Calallen - Sewers ($3,443).
p. An agreement be authorized with Tucker Properties, developers of Wooldridge
Creek Subdivision Unit II, for City participation in Airline Road through
this subdivision in accordance with the Street Master Plan. The street is
proposed to be built with 6" of lime stabilized subgrade, 9" of lime stabilized
caliche and 5" of asphalt in lieu of 8" of base and 2" of asphalt surface
required by the platting ordinance at an added cost of $57,556.54. The Street
Master Plan provides for realignment of Airline Road beginning at a point
south of Holly to Saratoga.
City Manager Townsend reiterated that the approval of this item would be
contingent upon the results of the public hearing on Airline Road.
That an agreement be authorized with Allen and Cameron, Inc. whereby the City
will participate in the extension of sanitary sewers to the 12 lots in Sedwick
Tract and the land west to Southern Minerals Road on the south side of Leopard.
The City's participation will be limited to the cost of crossings under Leopard
not to exceed $12,000. The developer agrees to construct the crossing and
the extension to serve all the lots in Sedwick Subdivision and at a depth
sufficient to serve the vacant property west to Southern Minerals Road. City
participation would be greater if the lots involved were a new subdivision
and the City was participating in oversize, overdepth, and 10 feet per lot for
offsite extensions.
q.
City Manager Townsend located the area on the map where the overdepth and
oversizing will be accomplished and requested that Mr. James K. Lontos, Director
of Engineering and Physical Development, explain further.
Mr. Lontos explained that the staff feels that if the City participates in
this project, some savings will be effected than if the City had to provide service

The apparent low bids of $2,980 by Goldthwaites of Texas, Inc., San Antonio, on
Item 2, $2,520 by Watson Distributing Company, Inc. and $2,805 by Goldthwaites
of Texas, Inc. on Item 5, $2,262 by Jones Implement Company of Corpus Christi
on Item 8, and $349 by Watson Distributing Company, Inc. on Item 9 do not meet
various specifications. Two bids were received on Item 1 - a 5 -unit gang tractor
mower with hydraulic travel lift for the Park Division. The apparent low bid of
$9,597 by Goldthwaites of Texas, Inc. did not meet specifications regarding
front -wheel drive and rear -wheel steering and regarding the mower cutting grass
ahead of all power unit wheels. The other bid of $11,490 by Watson Distributing
Company, Inc. met specifications but is not recommended because it is 25% greater
than the price bid on the same item last year and is believed to be non-competitive.
The specifications have been redrawn to eliminate the requirement for front -
wheel drive and rear -wheel steering and to allow the grass to be cut behind
the front wheels of the unit. These changes should allow for more bidders to
compete and it is recommended that bids be received for the gang mower at 11:00
a.m., Tuesday, April 17,1979. Bids were received from 8 firms. Price comparison
shows an increase of approximately 17%.
* u. That Ralph Burke Associates be authorized to update the Airport Master Plan for
$94,600.00. Emphasis will be placed on Terminal expansion, parking and access.
A portion of the cost will be made available by FAA participation.
City Manager Townsend stated that the City has now received a proposal from
the consultant, and he assured the Council that the staff will keep constant pressure
on the consultant to have them complete this update as soon as possible. Mr. Townsend
stated that he will inform the Council later of the dates that the consultants will
be expected to complete this study.
Council Member Diaz suggested that the Council be provided with a list of items
that will be studied as a part of the Airport Master Plan.
City Manager Townsend stated that he would withdraw this item temporarily until
he has an opportunity to check on some of the questions with staff members who are
concerned with this item.
v. The 1978-79 budget be amended by transferring $54,470 from the General Fund
Reserve to the Data Processing Fund to correct the overestimated opening balance.
The reason for the incorrect balance was (a) underestimating equipment rentals
by $40,140 because of the three month delay in going to third party lease
purchase of equipment and (b) overestimating revenues to be transferred from
other funds of $12,400. (c) Expenditures were underestimated approximately
$2,000 in other codes. The original appropriation for equipment rental prior
to consideration of the third party lease was $454,000. Actual expenditure
was $428,000 but the revised estimate was $388,000 in the final budget. This
estimate was prepared prior to the rescheduling on the third party lease.
City Manager Townsend explained that this incorrect balance was a mistake, and
this item just authorizes the mechanics to correct the error. He explained in detail
how the incorrect opening balance occurred and was simply an oversight by the Budget
Office and the Data Processing Department.
*This item was withdrawn temporarily in order for the City Manager to obtain further
information.

City Manager Townsend then returned to the discussion of Item "u" in regard
to the Airport Master Plan and informed the Council that the time element for this
study is that it be completed in approximately 12 months -- the first phase to be
completed in the 4th month, and FAA approval to be obtained in the 6th month. He
stated that it is hoped that contracts for the work could be awarded after the
4th month.
Mr. Lontos informed the Council that emphasis will be made on the parking
lot and the entrance road to the Airport.
*w. A charge of $100 per truck hour plus $1 per mile traveled or actual direct cost,
whichever is greater, be established for all fire calls outside of the city
limits except for those calls involving assistance to the fire department of
another incorporated city or the United States Navy since these agencies
participate with the city in mutual aid.
City Manager Townsend stated that this item will require extensive explana-
tion; therefore, he would like to temporarily withdraw it at this time.
x. An agreement be executed with the State for installation, maintenance, and
operation of a temporary safety lighting system on (1) Interstate 37 at
U. S. Highway 77 near Calallen, (2) on Padre Island Drive expressway just
east of State Highway 44 and (3) on the new Highway 44 - Padre Island Drive
interchange now under construction. The State will reimburse the City for
all costs incurred for installation, maintenance, and operation of these
lights.
Y. A hearing be held on March 21, 1979 at 2:00 p.m. to consider a request by
Corpus Christi Transportation Company for a taxicab fare increase.
The present rate provides:
First 1/3 mile: $0.95
Each Additional 1/3 mile: $0.20
Waiting Time: $6.00 per hour
One to five passengers same fare.
The requested rate increase is:
First 1/4 mile: $ 0.95
Each Additional 1/4 mile: $0.20
Waiting Time: $9.00 per hour
One to five passengers same fare.
The requested increase is 21% at one mile and 30% at 5 miles. The last rate
increase was effective August 24, 1977.
z. Insurance coverage which expires during the moratorium be renewed as recommended
by the Director of Finance and the Insurance Advisory Committee. The policies
expire March 31, 1979 and are as follows:
(1)
Airport basic and Excess Liability Coverage. The policy is one year
for $3,000,000. The recommended carrier is the present carrier, Aviation
Office of America, for an estimated annual premium of $8,268 or an increase
of $393. Four other companies were contacted, but declined to submit
proposals.
*This item was withdrawn.

(2) Towers Liability for the Marina. The policy is one year for $50,000. The
recommended carrier is the present carrier, St. Paul Mercury Insurance
Company, for an annual premium of $2,000. This is the same premium as
last year. Five other companies were contacted, but declined to submit
proposals.
(3) Fire and Extended Coverage. The policy is for three years for fire and
extended coverage of $38,702,000 and explosion only coverage of $1,281,450
with a $25,000 deductible. The recommended carrier is Highlands Companies
who presently carry one-half of the coverage. Hartford Company carries
the other half, but is not recommended because they cancelled the City's
automobile and general liability policy. The total premium is estimated
to be $207,757, an increase of $53,652. The increase is due to a 25%
increase in the value of City buildings because of the increase in
construction replacement costs over the past three years and the addition
of new construction such as the Auditorium, Health Building, Fire Station
#14, City Hall Annex and Flour Bluff Clinic for the full policy term.
Five other companies contacted declined to submit proposals. Five addi-
tional companies including Hartford submitted proposals equal to that of
Highlands Companies.
City Manager Townsend suggested that this group of City Manager's Reports
be considered for approval at this time.
Mayor Lozano ascertained that no one in the audience desired to speak on

It is recommended that the only bid received on a replacement hose and sprinkler
body for the Park Division of $10,500 by Commercial Body Corporation be rejected
as being too high. The amount budgeted is $2,450 and the price bid for a like
unit in March of last year was $2,882. The possibility of rebuilding a used
body to meet the department's requirements will be investigated. It is further
recommended that the only bid received on 6 additional storage tool boxes for
pick-up trucks for the Water Division of $810 by Commercial Body Corporation
be rejected because it does not meet the specifications on the width of the
box and the trays and dividers therein. The specifications will be revised
to more nearly confirm to what is available on the market and bid solicited
on an informal basis since the estimated purchase price is under $2,000.
Bids were received from 6 firms. Price comparison shows an increase of
approximately 11%.
bb. Bid award on three Copy Machines (City Hall, Utilities Bldg., and Police Dept.)
be made to XEROX CORPORATION, Corpus Christi for $22,219.50. Bids were
received from 5 firms. A price comparison cannot be established as the City

cc. Bid award on one Copy Machine for the Police Department be made to I.B.M.
CORPORATION, Corpus Christi on the basis of lowest bid meeting specifications
of $5,032.50. Bids were received from five firms. A price comparison cannot
be made as the City has not made a previous purchase of this type of machine.

specifications. Bids were received from 7 firms. Price comparison shows
an increase of approximately 11%.
Mayor Pro Tem Gulley noted that 6 additional vehicles are recommended for
purchase and inquired if these vehicles are to be used by 6 additional employees.
City Manager Townsend explained the reason for the recommendation for the
purchase of six additional vehicles, pointing out that in some instances, the staff
feels that the use of City vehicles rather than the payment of car expenses and
mileage will eventually mean a savings to the City.
ff. Water contracts with Mr. John Charles Anderson, Mr. Mark Kobelan,
Ms. Ernestine Garcia, and Ms. Estella Gonzales to provide water to
properties located outside the city limits be approved. The property
owners agree to construct improvements on their property in accordance
with all city codes, to allow inspection of construction, and to annex
said property at a date to be solely determined by the City Council.
Ordinance 14720, dated January 17, 1979, provides that each contract
for water service outside the city limits which includes a new water
connection must receive approval by the City Council before the contract
for such service can beecome effective. It is further recommended the
City Manager be authorized to approve similar contracts during the
moratorium period. The properties are located on Padre Island and in
the San Carlos Addition.

City Manager Townsend stated that he would like to present these items for

Mayor Lozano inquired if anyone in the audience desired to speak in regard
to City Manager's Reports, Items "aa" thru "nn", with the exception of "dd" and
"kk" both of which will be considered later. There was no response.
Motion by Gulley that City Manager's Reports, Items "aa" thru "nn", with
the exception of "dd" and "kk", be approved as presented; seconded by Gill; and
passed unanimously.

Mayor Lozano announced consideration of the following pending zoning matter:
Dr. Joseph Schultz: "R-2" to "AB", located on the northeast side of South Alameda
Street, approximately 200 feet north of Angel Avenue. This application was heard
on February 14, 1979 at which time it was denied and in lieu thereof a special permit
was approved for a doctor's office subject to an appropriate site plan. A site
plan has been received.
City Manager Townsend briefly reviewed this zoning application and presented
a site plan for Council approval. He reminded the Council that approval requires
five affirmative votes of the Council.
Motion by Diaz that the site plan be approved, seconded by Gulley, and
passed unanimously.
Mayor Lozano announced the next pending zoning case as follows:
Brookdale Development Company from "R -1B" to "A-1" on the southeast 66 feet by 165
feet of Lot 8, Block 1, Alameda Estates, located approximately 350 feet south of
Gaines Street and 75 feet east of Eldon Drive. This application was heard on
November 15, 1978 and approved with the stipulation that the applicant submit a
letter committing themselves to resolving the drainage problem. Such a letter has
not been received. The Planning Commission recommended approval. The 20% rule
is in effect.
City Manager Townsend reminded the Council that this zoning application was
tabled because there was a problem with drainage; the zoning case was approved by
the Council; but the ordinance was withheld until the applicant solved the drainage
problem by platting or by the submission of a letter of intent to correct the
drainage. Mr. Townsend informed the Council that a drainage plan has been submitted
.ces
Regular Council Meeting
March 7, 1979
Page 17
but it does not completely solve the drainage problem, according to staff members.
He further explained that the apartments owned by the applicant front on Gaines
Street, and the subject property is to the rear of the existing units.
Chief Planner Wenger presented slides of the area and located the subject
property.
City Manager Townsend explained that the staff recommends that the ordinance
not be approved until the property is lowered to take care of the drainage in the
area. He stated that the drainage plan presented by the engineering firm repre-
senting the applicant solves the problem within the site of the apartment complex
but not the drainage problem that exists at the rear of this property.
Council Member Gill referred to a related zoning case in this same area
pertaining to Seaside Memorial Cemetery and stated that she recalled that Gaines
Street was to be used only for limited access to the cemetery, but there appeared
to be a new entrance to the cemetery.
City Manager Townsend assured Council Member Gill that the staff will inves-
tigate this matter.
Further discussion followed in regard to the drainage of this area, and Mr.
Gerald Smith, Chief Engineer, explained that Urban Engineering had submitted a
drainage plan which included the installation of a storm sewer through the property
which would satisfactorily drain the applicant's property. He stated that in the
opinion of the staff, this solution will not solve the problem that exists at the
rear of the lots that face on Eldon Street. Mr. Smith stated that he was in the
area two days ago and discovered that water is still standing in these back yards
as a result of a recent rain. Mr. Smith expressed the opinion that unless the
apartment property is lowered or some other drainage solution is presented, then
the rear lots of the houses facing on Eldon Street will continue to have a drainage
problem.
City Manager Townsend informed the Council that they could ask the Planning
Commission not to approve the plat for this property unless the drainage is resolved.
Motion by Gulley that the plat of the subject property, which is a portion of
Lot 8, Block 1, Alameda Estates, not be approved until the drainage is corrected
for the back of the lots of the property that fronts on Eldon Street; seconded by

Gathering Company does have a protective clause in it.
Motion by Gill that City Manager's Report, Item "kk", be approved; seconded

Mayor Lozano called for the ordinances. City Manager Townsend briefly
explained the ordinances listed on the agenda and stated that he would like to
withdraw the first reading of Ordinance "b" which establishes a fee for fire assis-
tance outside the city limits. He also stated that, with the Council's permission,
he would like to withdraw the third reading of the ordinance granting to Nueces
Electric Cooperative, Inc., a franchise, because there are some questions in con-
nection with this franchise that need to be resolved.
Motion by Sample that the third reading of the Nueces Electric Cooperative,
Inc. franchise ordinance be rescheduled for the Council Meeting for May 9, 1979;
seconded by Gulley; and passed unanimously.
City Manager Townsend explained that there is a need to amend the ordinances
dealing with the barge restaurants and described the proposed motions to amend,
stating that separate motions on each ordinance would be necessary.
Motion by Gulley, seconded by Sample, and passed unanimously that the ordi-
nance authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement to contract and a five
(5) year lease agreement with the "1908 Wharf Corporation" for the establishment
of a barge restaurant to be located at the Cooper's Alley L -Head, read on the
