City Manager Townsend presented the following items with related
comments and explanations and recommended that:
a. Bids be received March 24, 1981, for twelve months supply of cast
iron tapping sleeves (approximately 39) -and tapping valves
(approximately 38) for use by the Water Division.

deteriorated handrails along the walkway of Wesley Seale Dam. Seven
hundred feet of the 5,500' of handrail were replaced during the last
two years. Bids will be solicited for 40, 50 or 60 sections of 9'10" to
determine which quantity can be purchased within the amount
budgeted for the project.
e. Bids be received March 24, 1981, for audio visual equipment including
two 16 mm and 8 mm sound movie projectors, two filmstrip projects,
one cassette record/player, one record player, one slide projector,

A public hearing be held at 2:00 p.m. on March 25, 1981 on the
closing of portions of Twigg Street between Water Street and
Shoreline Boulevard.
Councilmember Zarsky inquired if the proposed closing of portions of
Twigg Street is related to a hotel operation. He suggested that if this is the
reason for the street closing, that it be closed, subject to the actual installation
of the hotel and City Manager Townsend agreed that this would be the
appropriate action.
k. Trinity Engineering Testing Corporation be authorized to provide
underground subsurface investigation ($979.50) along the east side of
Tiger Ditch from Weber Road to Flynn Shea Parkway. This
subsurface investigation will provide information on fill material
adjacent to the ditch.
1. Repairs and remodeling to City property at 212 North Carrizo
($5,200) be approved. This property was previously maintained by
Mr. Harry Pinson prior to a legal settlement in December, 1980. Mr.
Pinson has a life estate in the property and resides in Apartment 4.
There are three other apartments, to of which are currently rented.
The property is badly in need of painting, repairs and remodeling.
It is recommended that Mr. Pedro Del Prado perform the work based

improvements for the Washington Coles area under the Community
Development Block Grant Program.
City Manager Townsend informed the Council that this project has been
divided into 3 phases since it is such a large undertaking. He stated that the

project does include curbs, gutters, and sidewalks across from the old Street
Division yard which is owned by the City but will possibly be sold in the
future even though the type of use is questionable. Mr. Townsend also
reminded the Council that there are very few houses on Burns Street, it was
the consensus of the Council that possibly this street could be included in the
project as an alternative item.
n. A contract in the amount of $217,900 for repairs of the Cole Park
Fishing Pier be awarded to the Goldston Company and $239,000 be
appropriated including inspection fees and related expenses. Several

system replaced; water line repaired and new deck sections .fabricated
to replace those beyond repairs. A total of $179,250 should be
received from FEMA and the City's share ($59,750) is from the Park
Bond Fund. The work order to proceed will not be issued until
FEMA concurs in the contract award,
o. A contract for $249,890 be awarded to the Goldston Company for
repair of Hurricane Allen damage to the north and south Breakwater
and the McGee Beach Concession Area. The walkway and walkway
cap will be repaired where high tides caused concrete breakage.

$258,000 is requested, of which $193,500 should be reimbused by
FEMA. ' The work order to proceed will not be issued until FEMA
concurs in the contract award. -
City Manager Townsend informed the Council that Mr. Ernest Briones,
Director of Planning and Urban Development, had just received word that FEMA
will participate in the funding on this project.
On a related matter, Councilmember Best inquired if there was any way
the City could design the Cole Park Pier so that this large expenditure would
not have to be made after every hurricane. He suggested that possibly if the
piers were not tied down, they would survive a hurricane.
Mr. James K. Lontos, Director of Engineering and Physical Development,
explained that the staff checked several yeasr ago when the pier was designed
and they were of the opinion that if the panels were placed so that they just
rested on the piers, the damage would not be as severe as if the panels were
rigidly installed. He stated, however, that the staff was of the opinion that
this type of pier would survive almost any type of hurricane, except one with
very high tides, such as Hurricane Allen.
Couricilmember Zarsky noted that the Causeway bridges withstood the
damage better than most structures.

Drive service•at Delaine Drive and River Oaks and St. Andrews Drive
in Country Club Estates No. 10. The contractor had 30 workind
days authorized for the project and utilized 89 days. A 15 -day time
extension is recommended due to additional work on Doddridge Street

anticipated project cost resulting in an increase of $17,355 from
$22,800 to $40,155. All other provisions of the basic engineering
contract would remain in effect. The 1977 bond election provided
$70,000 to add to $350,000 of Federal participation or $420,000 for the
project. Changes in project design and inflation now indicate a total

Mayor Jones announced the public hearing on assessments for improvements
of McArdle Road from Holmes to Crescent Drive.
City Manager Townsend informed the Council that Assistant City Attorney
Bob Coffin would conduct the public hearing on the proposed assessments.
Assistant City Attorney Coffin stated that the hearing is being conducted
to present information to the Council to enable them to determine the value of
the enhancement of the property and whether or not it is in the same amounts
as the assessments.
Mr. Coffin called as his first witness Mr. Gerald Smith, P.E., Chief
Engineer for the City of Corpus Christi. Through questioning of Mr. Smith,
he determined that Mr. Smith is a Civil Engineer employed as Chief Engineer
for the City of Corpus Christi; he obtained his degree in Civil Engineering
from the University of Texas at Austin; and that he has been employed by the
City in this capacity for approximately 11 years.
He then asked Mr. Smith to explain the project.
Chief Engineer Smith explained the project of McArdle Road improvements
from Holmes Drive easterly to Crescent Drive stating that it included frontage -
along Padre Staples Mall, the Sunrise Mall and Gulfway Shopping Center. He
explained to the Council that the project has been delayed until the completion
of the McArdle Road sliplining improvements for the sewer line. He stated that
the project was designed by the State Department of Highways and Public
Transportation. Mr. Smith then described the project by explaining that the
improvements provide for a roadway of 30', 90', 48' and 60' in width within the
existing right-of-way; the roadway will have a 6" thick compacted, stabilized
subgrade; a 5" thick, stabilized flexible base; and 11" asphaltic concrete
pavement as well as sidewalks and 6" thick reinforced concrete driveways which
will be constructed as shown on the plans or where requested by the owners.
He also informed the Council that the contract for the project has been awarded
by the State and that project is now under construction by the low bidder,
Asphalt Construction Company, which submitted a bid of $1,046,388.58.

,- Mr. Smith explained that the contractor has 150 working days to complete
the project or about 8 months. Mr. Smith assured the Council that during the
construction of the project, it is proposed that most of the roadway will be
closed to through -traffic but open to local traffic. Mr. Smith then explained
the assessment roll stating that it included 60 separate items. He explained the
assessment rates by stating that commercial rates, according to the ordinance,
are $19.50 per linear foot, $1.00 per square foot for sidewalks, and $3.67 per
square foot for driveways. Mr. Smith also indicated that for residential
property, the maximum rates are $4.75 per linear foot for curbs, gutters and
pavement, $.75 per square foot for sidewalks and $3.67 per square foot for
driveways.
Mr. _ Smith continued his presentation by stating that the total cost of the
project is - $1,046,388.58; State and federal portion is $733,188.58; the
preliminary assessments are $228,351.20 and the City's portion is $84,848.80.
He further explained that payment is not required until after completion of the
project and the assessments may be paid either by cash or over a period of five
years at 6"-t96 interestrateor in case of extreme hardship, the time period may
be extended to 10 years.
Mayor Jones inquired if this is the last street project that was included in
the 1972 bond program.
City Manager Townsend replied that this is the last street that does not
have major problems.
Assistant City Attorney Coffin stated that he had no further questions of
this witness and called as his next witness Mr. W. A. (Bill) Holly.
Under questioning, Mr. Holly stated that he is a real estate broker and
appraiser; that he has been appraising property for 28 years; his experience
includes work for the City of Corpus Christi for the past 6 years; and stated
that he is thoroughly familiar with the McArdle Street properties.
Mr. Holly testified that he found only one pie -shaped or odd -shaped lot
which was listed as Item 10 on the assessment roll. Mr. Holly stated that
because this is a triangular-shaped lot, he is recommending a reduction of
$667.50 in the assessment for this item which is known as Lot A and Lot K,
Northeast Shamoon. Mr. Holly further testified that in his opinion, all other
properties included in the project will be enhanced at least in the amount of the

assesment. He commented that there are some properties zoned "AB" that are
used for residences. and expressed the opinion that even the residences siding
on this street would be enhanced at least in the amount of the assessment.
Assistant City Attorney Coffin informed the Council that this completed the
formal questioning for this public hearing on preliminary assessmenets.
Mayor Jones called for comments from the audience on this matter.
Mr. Albert J. Benoit, 1233 Vance Street, listed as Item 33, stated that his
house sides on McArdle Road. Mr. Benoit informed the Council that it is his
understanding that his sidewalks will be torn up.
City Manager Townsend agreed that this would be done, but it will be
replaced.
Mr. Smith further explained that the sidewalk will be in the same location,
but it will be 5 feet wide rather than 4 feet wide.
Mr. Benoit continued by expressing the opinion that since his- house will
side on a 4 -lane street, he was of the opinion that his property would not be
enhanced at all.
Mr. Townsend asked one of the engineering staff members to explain the
staff plans of the project adjacent to Mr. Benoit's property.
Another property owner speaking in regard to the assessments was Mr.
William E. Voye, 1237 Stranton Street, listed as Item 35. Mr. Voye informed
the Council that his property is near the edge of this project; his property is
located' across the street from an open field which is owned by _the United
States Post Office and there is nothing else located in that area. He also asked
if the bank in that area will have to donate any property for right-of-way.
City Manager Townsend stated that the bank will donate property to widen
McArdle Road.
Mr. Voye then stated that if the bank parking lot is decreased in size, a
traffic problem will be created for the bank. He also informed the Council that
he, had discussed this project with propety owners at the corner of McArdle and
several other streets in his area, and they all feel that the 4 houses involved
will not be improved but, in fact, the value will actually be decreased because
of the excessive width of McArdle Road. He stated that he feels the widening
of McArdle will interfere with the privacy and quietness of their neighborhood
and that they should not have to pay any assessments since their property will
not be enhanced.

Page 11
Mayor Jones expressed the opinion that the value of those 4 houses will be
increased by the street improvements.
Another property owner speaking in regard to the assessments was Mr.
Ronald Lyon, 1246 Crescent, listed as Item 38. Mr. Lyon stated that he
experiences a problem with street vibrations at his residence now and he is
apprehensive that the wider street will aggrevate this problem. He stated that
Mr. James K. Lontos had expressed the opinion that the potholes in the streets
created that problem. However, Mr. Lyon questioned what the consequences
would be after this street has been reconstructed.
Mr. Lontos explained that the street will be smoother and he hopes that
the vibration problem will be alleviated after this street has been reconstructed.
Mr. Floyd Jeager, 5622 McArdle, Items 19 and 21, mentioned that he has a
vibration problem - at his - residence also. He expressed the opinion that the
sliplining of the sewer on that street has created the problem_
Mayor Jones reminded the property owners in the audience that the
purpose of the Council _ during this hearing was •to determine if the properties
involved would be enhanced at least in the amount of the assessments.
Mr. Jeager also questioned the amount of his assessments.
Mr. Smith explained that Mr. Jeager's property is zoned "AB" even though
a one -family dwelling unit exists on the property; therefore, his assessments
are higher.
City Manager Townsend agreed that there is a substantial inequity in the
property containing residences because so much of the property in this area is
zoned "AB", possibly at the request of the current property owners. He
commented that this is a street in transition and "AB" zoning may be
appropriate for most of the property.
Mr. Townsend suggested that possibly the Council might wish to table the •
decision on this one block until the staff has had an opportunity to study the
land use and Mayor Jones agreed that the land use should be studied.
City Manager Townsend stated that if the Council feels that all of the
property should be zoned "AB", the staff study could be prepared by next
week. -
Mr. N. E. Shamoon, 1326 Kent Circle, referred to the triangular piece. of
property that he owns from which the City plans to remove one of the
driveways because it is too close to the street.
{=lviinutes . _
'- Regular Council Meeting
. March 4, 1981
Page 12
Mr. Smith explained that this property contains about 6 driveways which
the staff does not recommend replacing. He stated that the particular driveway
Mr. Shamoon refers to has a chain across it and is not used and access will be
provided by two other driveways. He stated that the staff feels that the
driveway located there is very dangerous, but it is because it is so close to the
intersection.
City Manager Townsend informed the Council that the staff will resolve
this problem with Mr. Shamoon.
Mr. Benoit addressed the Council again and pointed out that he lived
directly across the street from Gulfway Shopping Center; -children and
pedestrians walk to the shopping center; and if five lanes of traffic are
installed, it will be almost impossible for them to walk to the shopping center.
He also questions whether the drainage will be improved.
Mr. Smith stated that the drainage will be improved during the
reconstruction.
Mr. Joseph Hahns, speaking on behalf of the owners of Padre Staples Mall,
inquired if the letter addressed to the Mayor and Council had been received
assuring them the necessary easements had been obtained to allow for the left
turn lane adjacent to Padre Staples Mall. Mayor Jones assured him that the
letter had been received.
Mr. Roy Smith, one of the owners of Padre Staples Mall, thanked the
Council for their patience with his company in their efforts to obtain the
necessary easements.
No one else spoke in regard to this matter.
Motion by Best that the hearing be closed, seconded by Turner and
passed unanimously.
Motion by Best that the Council approve the preliminary assessment roll,
subject to the report mentioned, seconded by Zarsky and passed unanimously.
Motion by Turner that the Regular Council Meeting be recessed at 4:40

Consideration of changes in the Flour Bluff and Naval Base bus route
schedules. Possible revisions include (1) connecting the Flour Bluff
and Northgate routes to allow Flour Bluff passengers to travel along
Alameda without transfer, (2) changing the Flour Bluff service from
thirty minutes to one hour headway and (3) extending the Southgate
route to Williams Drive between Staples and Airline to provide better
service to an area of apartments.
City Manager Townsend explained that public hearings are required for
any changes which are to be submitted to the Urban Mass Transportation
Administration and noted that it may be necessary to conduct a series of public
hearings on changes in bus schedules.
Mr. Tom _ Stewart, Director of Traffic and Transit, stated that the purpose
of the hearing is to propose revisions to several bus routes. He stated that
the routes - in question are the NAS North Gate route connecting with Flour
Bluff to - allow the Flour Bluff passengers to travel along Alameda without a
transfer; changing the Flour Bluff service from 30 minutes to 1 hour and
extending the Southgate route to Williams Drive between Staples and Airline to
provide -better service to an area of apartments. He informed the Council that
the staff concurs with these recommended changes. Mr. Noe Valdez, of the
Transit Division, located . the routes explained the time schedule change. He
explained that through routing would be provided by this change so that no
transfers will be necessary. He noted that there is heavy traffic in the area of
the mall and it has been difficult to make connections and even though the bus
service will not be as often, it will be more convenient for the riders since
fewer transfers will be required.
Mr. Valdez informed the Council that there is a transfer shelter inside
Northgate at the Naval Air Station and extending the Southgate route to
Williams Drive between Staples and Airline will provide service to the Treyway
Apartment area.
City Manager Townsend stated that this bus will go within one block of the
apartment complex.
Mr. Valdez pointed out that bus service will be provided once each hour.
He stated also that the route will be further from the Social Security Office_
Councilmember Luna inquired if that would be an inconvenience to the
elderly people and City Manager Townsend explained that the problem was

really created by the location of the Social Security Office on a one-way access
road.
Councilmember Luna inquired if the City has any buses that are smaller
and could save fuel. City Manager Townsend replied that it is necessary to
have the size of bus that will take care of the peak load so that an additional
driver will not be necessary for two mini buses to take care of times when the
load is heavy.
Mayor Jones called for comments from the audience.
Mrs. Doris Spence, stated that she felt that the changes in the Flour
Bluff route will improve the service and expressed appreciation of the Flour
Bluff Civic League for the City making this change. Also approving of the
changes was Mrs. Carolyn Webb, the manager of - the Arrowsmith Apartments.
Mrs. Marie Spear, representing the publication the "Flour Bluff Sun",
expressed appreciation for the improved routes to Flour Bluff.
Motion by Turner that the hearing be closed, seconded by Best, and
passed unanimously_
Motion by Luna that the Council approve the proposed _changes in the
Transit system, seconded by Turner, and passed unanimously.
Mayor Jones announced the public hearing on the following matter:
Seven Year Community Development Block Grant program including
the recommendations of the Planning Commission.
Mr. Tom Utter, Director of Housing and Community Development, stated
that the Seventh Year program extends from August 1, 1981 through July 31,
1982. He referred to the material provided the Council and mentioned that the
material includes written proposals that have been received by his office. He
stated that one additional proposal was received that day.
Mr. Utter continued his presentation by providing a brief resume of the
general information pamphlet explaining the Community Development Block
Grant program. Mr. Utter explained that a number of neighborhood meetings
had been conducted prior to the recommendations being prepared to determine
the needs of the various areas of the city. He also stated that the Planning
Commission had reviewed the requests and the staff and the Planning
Commission recommend the following items to be included in the Seven Year
Community Development Block Grant program:

Mr. Utter explained the funds that are available for loans for the
rehabilitation program for emergency home repairs and weatherization program.
Councilmember_: Zarsky inquired as to which agency approves these
applications.
Mr. Utter stated that Section 312 loans are approved by his office; the
City loan program and the Community Development program are approved by a
Loan Review Committee consisting of various citizens.
Councihnember Dumphy inquired if the City expects the 312 funds to be
less than they have been in the past and City Manager Townsend replied the
staff expects it to be completely eliminated because it has not been uniformly
successful.
Mr. Utter briefly
Commission.
Councilmember Zarsky suggested that some alternatives be examined to see
if there are other projects which should be considered.
City Manager Townsend pointed out to the Council that a second public
hearing on the Community Development Block Grant Program will be conducted
on March 14, 1981.
Councilmember Zarsky referred to Item 12 which recommends the. purchase
of 8 Headstart portable buildings and suggested that the Corpus Christi
Independent School District might have portable buildings that they no longer
need which might be purchased at a lower price or even donated by the School
District.
Mrs. Garcia of 'the Nueces County Community Action Agency stated'"that she
reviewed the
recommendations
of the Planning
did not think that the School District would have any extra portable buildings.
City Manager Townsend pointed out that the Community Action Agency
Board has not officially requested portable buildings from C.C.I.S.D. Mr.
Utter also pointed out that the 8 buildings would have to be located within the
City of Corpus Christi.
Councilmember Zarsky questioned Item 15 designated for Peoples Street and
Shoreline Drive intersection pedestrian crossings at a cost of $200,000. City
Manager Townsend explained that this is not a staff recommendation, but is the
recommendation of the Planning Commission and it includes heavy landscaping
including benches on the median, etc.

Councilmember Zarsky suggested that an overpass sidewalk be considered.
City Manager Townsend explained that it has been proven that people will
not use an overpass type of pedestrian walkway because of the inconvenience.
Councilmember Zarsky inquired if some of this money could be used for
other projects.
Mr. Utter stated that if there are any substantial changes, it would be
necessary to go through the entire process of hearings.
Councilmember Zarsky referred to Item 16 which is Local Option and/or
Contingencies Reserved for Corpus Christi Beach and inquired if this has to be
reserved strictly for Corpus Christi Beach.
Mr. Utter stated that this is the Planning Commission recommendation for
the local option money and this was a proposal by the Chamber of Commerce
Task Force.
Mayor Jones inquired about the $400,000 designated for downtown parking
and Mr. Utter replied that this was in the Fifth Year Community Development
Fund.
Mayor Jones suggested that if the City does not use this money, the
Reagan Administration may eliminate those funds.
Mayor Jones called for comments from the audience on the Community
Development Block Grant Program.
Mr. Ricardo Gonzalez, 4514 Marie, expressed a concern about the
Community Development money because the situation that exists today is
different from a few years ago. He referred in particular to the Housing
Rehabilitation Program and expressed the opinion that this allocation should be
increased. He noted that this would improve area neighborhoods and pointed
out that citizens on fixed incomes need these funds. He informed the Council
that the City of San Antonio had allocated about $18.5 million for rehabilitation
loan programs; and in El Paso $8.5 million was designated. He expressed the
opinion that it is very vital that this Council consider increasing the
rehabilitation program to improve the hard-core older neighborhoods.
Mr. Morgan Spear referred to Item 16 also and stated that he received a
call from Mr. Cecil Burney to ask him to serve as Chairman of the Corpus -
Christi Beach Improvement Committee. He informed the Council that they have
conducted a number of meetings to which they invited interested citizens and
the City staff. He stated that they were particularly concerned with Timon

Boulevard and Surfside on Corpus Christi Beach and they had considered
selling this to stimulate improvements there. However, they were informed by
the City that this could not be done. He stated that for that reason they
decided to devise a plan for improvements to the beach and an estimated cost of
the improvements. He urged that the Council allocate funds for this committee
to develop a minimum amount of landscaping- on Surfside and Timon Boulevard
so that they would be people and tourist -oriented for various activities.
Mr. Spears then displayed his plans for the two streets and Corpus
Christi Beach including parking lot, boardwalk, and fill to improve the site.
He stated that they considered an indoor swimming pool, an aquarena theater, a
bath house and small shops. He expressed the opinion that this would be an
ideal location for Bayfest to conduct their annual celebration. Mr. Spears
stated that their estimated construction cost for the parking -lot, the street
improvements, Boardwalk, landfill, and the outdoor theater would cost about
$1.6 million.
City Manager Townsend inquired what would generate interest in citizens
or visitors to go to this area and Mr. Spear replied that an aquarena-type of
atmosphere with restaurants in a seaside motif would attract citizens.
Mayor Jones inquired as to why the Council should consider Corpus Christi
Beach for this type of development in preference to the downtown area, Flour
Bluff or any other area.
Mr. Spear replied that he understood that the City had asked the Chamber
of Commerce to establish a task force to determine what should -be - done on
Corpus Christi Beach and their recommendations are a result of that task force
study_
Councilmember Best inquired if it would be feasible -.to just develop the
street and the other work in stages and Mr. Spear agreed that it could be done
in stages.
Councilmember Zarsky expressed appreciation to Mr. Spear for the work
that he has accomplished on this. He reminded the Council that the amusement
park located on North Beach many years ago was very successful and this type
of entertainment could be provided at practically no cost to the City.
Mr. Spear agreed and stated that he just wanted to stimulate interest in
the beach and that he is suggesting that the land be leased for a minimum
amount of $1.00.

An unidentified lady that she felt that something should be done to
improve Corpus Christi Beach. She indicated that she was most concerned with
the swimming pool or the Aquarena project. She informed the Council that she
had contacted a gentleman in Montreal who designs pools and the proposed pool
would provide swimming for various groups. She stated that she feels that this
could be financed by private sources if they were assured of a site. She
estimated that the cost would be about $4 million.
City Manager Townsend inquired as to the size of tract that would be
needed and the lady replied that just enough space to build a large swimming
pool.
Mayor Jones suggested that the designer of the pool visit Corpus Christi
to study' the problem. He indicated that he did not foresee any problem with
the City providing a site for such a facility.
Mr. Stanley Martinez, representing Community Development Corporation of
Corpus Christi, stated that they have been here since 1967; they have a board
that consists of 24 members; they have been involved in housing for some time;
and explained the program and the accomplishments of that organization_ He
informed the Council that their budget is $81,800 and they have requested
$56,000 from the -City with $34,000 to be allocated from the Community
Development Block Grant program and the balance from the City's General
Fund. Mr. Martinez objected to the fact that CDC has been eliminated from
the program by the Planning Commission.
City Manager Townsend commented that the City has participated in
funding this group for about 4 years.
Councilmember Luna inquired of Mr. Briones as to why this funding was
not included in this year's program and Mr. Briones explained that the staff
has a difficult time in recommending funding for both BID and CDC because
they perform similar services.
City Manager Townsend elucidated by explaining that if the City has a
contract with an entity that is carrying out its own activity with its own
support, then the City can supplement funds for it. But, if the project is
funded primarily by the City, then there is question as to who is in charge of
the operation. He noted that CDC has not progressed the way it should and
=.Minutes

there is a possibility of a problem of City money being spent by other
contractors. He pointed out that BID has money coming from several other
sources and this is just not the same situation that exists with CDC. Mr.
Martinez again objected to the fact that they had been eliminated from the
program.
Mayor Pro Tem Sample stated that he does not feel that both of them
should be eliminated and noted that the funding for BID had been increased.
Mr. Briones pointed out that CDC is not only requesting $34,000 .from the
Community Development program funds but also $32,000 from the City's General
Fund.
Councilmember Dumphy referred to Item 2 which is for Emergency Home
Repairs and Weatherization Program to be carried out by Nueces County
Community Action Agency and ascertained that they have never- requested
money before.
Mr. Utter explained that the weatherization program federal funds will be
eliminated soon and that is the reason they have requested funds -from this
source.
Councilmember Dumphy expressed opposition to the funding of CAA _since
CDC is not funded. He stated that he felt that CDC is the organization that
should be funded. Mr. Briones pointed out that the funds for the
weatherization program were to be spent on materials only.
Mayor Jones stated that he did not see the wisdom of shifting the funding
to the weatherization program.
City Manager Townsend noting the apparent opposition of some of the
Councilmembers stated that he will have a staff recommendation at the public
hearing to be conducted in two weeks on this same matter: He stated that he
finds it difficult to transmit the recommendations of the Planning Commission
because the staff does not agree with some of their recommendations.
'No one else spoke in regard to the Community Development Block Grant
program.
Motion by Best that the hearing be closed, seconded by Sample, and
passed unanimously.

Mayor Jones called for petitions or information from members of the
audience on matters not listed on the agenda.
Mr. W. W. Bodine referred to a letter that he had written requesting a
hearing in regard to his assessments on Joyce Street. He stated that he was
not aware that Joyce Street was being widened because he did not receive the
letter informing hirn of the street improvements and the assessment associated
with it. He stated that this street is only two blocks long and begins on Ayers
Street and deadends in a field noting that one side is residential and the other
side of the street is commercial located in Cabaniss Acres. He informed the
Council that none of the property owners on the commercial side feel that
sidewalks should be constructed, yet they are being forced to pay for them.
He stated that he will not be able to allow parking on the street and explained
that his employees use most of the parking spaces in the parking lot and he
needs the 8 parking spaces in front of his building which exist at this time.
He requested that the sidewalk not be installed in front of his property so that
the parking spaces on the street can be•retained.
Mr. Lontos located the area on a transparency and explained the plans for
the street reconstruction. He stated that they had examined Mr. Bodine's
property that morning and there is the possibility of leaving the existing
sidewalk in place rather than installing the five-foot wide sidewalk as shown on
the plans. He informed the Council that the staff recommends a change to that
plan to provide for 3 25 -foot driveways instead of a 30 -foot driveway and the
driveways will be constructed as close together as possible which will allow 4
parking spaces turning into the building or possibly 6 parking spaces with a
revised plan.
Mr. Bodine reiterated that none of the property owners want the sidewalk
on the commercially zoned property.
City Manager Townsend explained to Mr. Bodine that the voluntary paving
street program always provides for sidewalks and reminded the Council that Mr.
Joe Crocker spoke at the assessment hearing on the Cabaniss Acres project and
also opposed the installation of sidewalks in front of his building. He explained
that the notice sent to Mr. Bodine was addressed to the wrong street number
but the notice was not returned.

City Manager Townsend pointed out that if the Council was considering
omitting the sidewalks on the commercial side of the street, he would suggest
that another public hearing be held with notices to be sent out. He commented
that the location or size of driveways is of no concern to the neighborhood.
Councilmember Best stated he had attended that public hearing and
everyone present was very much in favor of the sidewalks except for one
property owner.
City Manager Townsend stated that it is possible to install a four -foot
sidewalk instead of a five-foot. He also stated that the residents of the
residential property across the street are apprehensive that employees and
customers of the commercial zoned property will park in front of their houses.
Mr. Bodine also stated that children might walk on the sidewalk in front of
his building which would be quite dangerous since trucks are moving in and out
of there frequently.
Councilmember Zarsky stated that apparently the neighbors were aware of
the danger of their children walking on the commercial side of the street, but
they still wanted a sidewalk. He stated that he was of the opinion that there is
no need for the sidewalks on the commercial side of the street and pointed out
that with this arrangement, 8 parking spaces will be available including the
curb street parking.
Mr. Zarsky then recommended that all property owners on Joyce Street be
notified that consideration is being given to eliminating the sidewalks on the
commercial side of the street, seconded by Dumphy, and passed unanimously.
