A blanket easement originally granted to Houston Natural Gas Company in 1941 and assigned to the City of Corpus Christi in 1962 in Lot 8 and Lot 10B, Block 6, Gardendale Subdivision be closed. No City utilities or other utilities exist in the blanket easement and all platted easements would be retained in the affected lots. The lots were replatted in 1979 and the necessary easements dedicated; therefore, the blanket easement is not needed. The property is located at the northwest corner of South Staples Street and Cain Drive. 10. The 50 -foot wide right-of-way of John Street from N. Port Avenue easterly approximately 217.5 feet to the west right-of-way line of railroad right-of-way be closed. Two 42 -inch diameter storm sewers, a 6 -inch sanitary sewer and a CP&L guywire exist in the street and easements would be retained for these facilities. The 6 -inch sanitary sewer line also exists on private property under buildings and the applicant would provide the City with a hold harmless agreement due to the location of the 40 -year old sewer lines. A public hearing was held on this request on December 19, 1979. At that time a motion to close was made and approved unanimously by the Council with the understanding that it may be feasible to reduce the number of easements required. At this time neither the applicant, V. A. Bradley or the staff have any objection to the easements being retained. The right-of-way will revert to the abutting owner, Mr. Bradley. Council Member Zarsky referred to the right-of-way in this area that is to be closed and inquired if there is an ordinance that establishes a policy on the reversion of the land abandoned to go to the abutting property owners. Mr. Briones stated that that is the usual procedure noting that if the land for the right-of-way has been taken from the developer, the abandoned street or area goes back to the developer. '.5 .ar Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 7 City Secretary Read explained the procedure followed when street closings are considered and Assistant City Manager Lontos located the street on a map and provided background information. 11. An agreement be approved with Sunglo Homes, Inc., developer of Tuloso Estates Subdivision, for the City to reimburse the developer the City's share of paving improvements on Timberline Drive which abuts the dedicated park in this subdivision. Tuloso Estates is located between Leopard Street and Interstate 37 east of Suntide Road. An appropriation of $4,396.24 is needed out of the street bond fund for the City's share. 12. The frequency of vehicle inspection for taxicabs and other City licensed vehicles used for transporting the public be changed from 4 times per year to twice yearly. Regular inspections on a 6 -month frequency plus more spot inspections will provide adequate safety protection. This action will reduce the transit work load by approximately 100 manhours per year and eliminate approximately 80 manhours required of the Police Department. Other Texas cities such as San Antonio, Austin and Dallas have reduced their frequency of inspection to twice yearly and 'the change is working smoothly. 13. Bids be received on November 24, 1981, to construct and install the general store exhibit in the Corpus Christi Museum. The construction of this exhibit is included in the improvements to the north wing of the museum, for which $100,000 was voted in the 1977 bond election. The store will be a 12' x 27' two story structure, from the period 1890 to 1905. 14. A contract be approved with the Texas Jazz Festival Society for free public clinics on April 8, 1982 at Del Mar College and a free public jazz festival on June 27, 1982, at Memorial Coliseum. The Tourist and Convention Fund Budget includes $6,000 for these activities. The date for the clinics, which have been held the day before the Jazz Festival in past years, is being changed for the convenience of participating students. 15. Horizontal mini venetian blinds for the meeting room and banquet hall windows in the Convention Center be purchased from Covered Walls, Unlimited, on the basis of low bid of $5,645.46. Four bids were received. Mayor Jones inquired if these blinds would interfere with the view from the meeting room and banquet hall windows. Assistant City Manager Bill Hennings provided a sample and description of the mini blinds proposed for purchasing. He stated that the color selected is compatible with the other decor and will not attract attention to the blinds themselves. He assured the Council that they will only be used when there is a visual slide presentation during the daytime when a darkened room is necessary. 16. A lease agreement between the Coastal Bend Consortium and U -Haul Storage be approved to rent storage space at $22.00/mo. for thirty-five months begninning November 1, 1981 and terminating September 30, 1984+ for a total of $770.00. The storage is for the Employment Opportunities Pilot Program participants' records retention as required by federal regulations. The EOPP closeout budget, approved by the Executive Committee on September 16, 1981, has funds allocated for rent. Bids were received from three agents of which U -Haul was the lowest bidder. Minutes Regular Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 8 Mayor Pro Tem Turner inquired about the possibility of storing these records somewhere in a city facility rather than leasing storage space. Acting City Manager Briones assured her that there was no available space within any of the City Hall facilities. 17. Industrial district agreements be approved with the following firms: A & G Utility Co., Inc. G & A Properties Mr. Hoyte Gentry McKenzie Contractors Lambert and Frondren Construction Co. Barraza Trucking A. D. Hallmark Contracting Nueces Ford and Tractor, Inc. Robert E. Jenkins (CJB Constrution Co.) Tejas Metals, Inc. R. S. Black Engineers and Contractors Anslinger, Inc. Mr. David Royal Floyd Logue Oil Field Equipment Co., Inc. Mr. Earl Dunn, Sr. H. S. Sizemore & Son Co. Coastal Compressor, Inc. BRM Enterprises, Inc. Mr. J. H. Spurlock J. D. Concrete Unit Step Co. W. T. Young Construction Company The above list includes all of the companies except two which submitted signed alternate industrial district agreements without a required minimum payment by the deadline previously established by the City Council so that their property would not be part of the annexation election. The land descriptions of the remaining two companies are still being verified. Mr. Briones informed the Council that this report adds twenty-one new industrial districts and there will be two additional ones as soon as the contracts have been signed and land descriptions verified. Mayor Jones ascertained that no one in the audience wished to speak on the City Manager's Reports. A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Turner that the City Manager's Reports, items 1 through 17 be approved; seconded by Council Member Zarsky; and passed by the following vote: Jones, Turner, Dumphy, Hawkins, Kennedy and Zarsky voting, "Aye"; Gulley, "absent, at the time the vote was taken". ********** es ar Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 9 Mayor Jones called for the consideration of the following pending zoning matter: Tucker Properties from "I-2" Light Industrial District to "A-2" Apartment House District on Tract A and "R-2" Multiple Dwelling District on Tract B and from "R -1B One -family Dwelling District to "R-2" on Tract C, located between Ayers Street (Chapman Ranch) and Kostoryz Road north of Saratoga Boulevard. A public hearing was held on this application on May 6, 1981 and "R-2"was approved on Tract C. Tracts A and B were referred to the Planning Commission for reconsideration in view of additional information . provided by the Navy. The six month time limit expires today. It is recommended that the application be granted a further extension of one year while final recommendations are developed on the AICUZ study. The public hearing was not closed to allow the applicant to comment at the appropriate time. Acting City Manager Briones stated that this has been pending for six months; the time for action expires today; and the Staff recommends that the time be extended. A motion was made by Council Member Dumphy that this zoning case be extended for one year; seconded by Council Member Zarsky; and passed unanimously. ********** Mayor Jones called for the ordinances. Acting City Manager Briones briefly explained the ordinances on the agenda, referring in particular to Ordinance No. 6 which authorizes an agreement to contract in a 15 -year lease agreement with the Nueces Landing Company for a floating restaurant. He reminded the Council that they had requested the Legal Department to review the favored nations clause and the Legal Staff recommends against including this in the ordinance. Acting City Manager Briones stated that he would like to place the closing of Bennett Street on a•three-reading basis. Council Member Kennedy suggested that unless there was a real emergency, all of the ordinances be on three -reading basis. Mr. Briones noted that there were twenty-one ordinances on establishing industrial districts with various companies and agreed that those could be on three -reading basis. Mr. Tom Basile pointed out, however, that the City will lose money if these ordinances are placed on three readings. Minutes Regular Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 10 City Secretary Read informed the Council that the Charter provides that passing a routine ordinance may be done if it is called an emergency; the ordinances listed on the agenda today are placed on an emergency basis because that is the usual way the City operates when there is no possible controversy on an ordinance. He pointed out that the Annexation Election has already been conducted; these ordinances authorize the formation of industrial districts with companies that were included from that Annexation Election and reminded them that public hearings were conducted and citizens had an opportunity to provide public input. It was the consensus of the Council that the ordinances be passed on an emergency basis. Council Member Hawkins expressed the opinion that routine ordinances could be approved as a part of a consent agenda. City Secretary Read agreed and stated that the Legal Department and the. City Secretary's Office are working on recommendations for a consent agenda and a possibility of the Council acting by motion rather than by ordinance. Mayor Jones pointed out that the Legislature makes a practice of passing law on an emergency basis. Mr. Briones stated that he would prefer to discuss a change in the format of Council action after the Staff has had an opportunity to complete their study. Mayor Pro Tem Turner questioned Ordinance No. 5 which was the second reading of the ordinance amending the Code to allow commercial boat brokers to sell craft from assigned slips. She referred to a letter that had been received from Mr. Anthony R. DeAmico, owner of The Boat Shop, in which he requested that. the Council reconsider the requirement that only one boat will occupy one slip and that the broker/dealers will pay a premium of 140% of the regular rent charged to owners of pleasure boats. Council Member Dumpliy referred to Ordinance 6 in regard to the Nueces Landing Company lease and noted that the vessel planned to be used for the barge restaurant is much larger than anticipated; it will require more parking; it will seat a lot more people than anticipated and is different from what the Council approved a few years ago. He stated that he had discussed this with a member of the Marina Board and they did not approve a vessel that Large. He es .ar Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 11 suggested that when a different proposal is presented that the views of the Marina Board be obtained. Assistant City Manager Tom Utter explained to the Council that he did not return this to the Marina Board for their opinion but stated that they will be meeting tomorrow; it will be discussed with them again; it was the Staff's understanding that this new craft would simply replace the one that was proposed several years ago. He pointed out that the new barge restaurant will seat 350 people, whereas the former proposal indicated that space would be provided for 260 people. Mr. Utter also pointed out that the size of the craft considered previously was 110' long by 40' wide and Nueces Landing Company's landing vessel is 184' long by 44' wide and it will only project out an additional 4'. He explained that the only reason it was not presented to the Marina Board was that this contract replaces the previous authorization for a second barge restaurant. Mayor Pro Tern Turner stated that she is only concerned about the parking. Mayor Jones pointed out that the Cooper Street L -Head has more room for parking than any place on the bayfront. He also noted that it may well be that the Marina Board examines the Marina in relation only to people who own boats and it might be their feeling that possibly this restaurant might interfere with boat activities. He noted, however, that this floating barge restaurant will serve more citizens than the boat slips will ever serve. Council Member Kennedy pointed out that the City has 100 additional boat slips which might create more congestion in the area. Mr. Utter explained that the Staff is studying the traffic congestion for cars, boats, and trailers on the L -Heads and they do not feel that there is a problem yet. He pointed out that the barge restaurant primarily will have parking at lunch and in the evening whereas boat owners will park primarily early in the morning. Mrs. Beverly Tillson inquired about the ordinance authorizing the closing of Bennett Street. She inquired if this street will actually be closed after the third , reading of the ordinance and inquired as to who the stockholders of Harbor Development Company are. Minutes Regular Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 12 Mr. Briones stated that the Staff will provide her with the information on the stockholders of Harbor Development Company and the street will not be closed until all of the conditions have been met. Mr. Anthony R. DeAmico, 309 South Shoreline, referred to the ordinance pertaining to boat slips. He expressed concern about the change in the ordinance to increase the rates for broker/dealers. He stated that he felt that it was perfectly alright to have two boats docked in one slip and presented copies of pictures depicting two boats in one slip in other areas. He also expressed opposition to the increase in rates for dealers, pointing out that they . pay taxes to conduct a business through payroll taxes, personal property taxes, sales taxes, etc. He asked that the Council reconsider those two points before voting to change the ordinance. Council Member Kennedy expressed the opinion that it would be more appropriate if the Council put in a percentage of possibly two or three percent surcharge for the sale of boats instead of increasing the boat rental rate. He explained that, in other words, the City would collect a surcharge on each boat sold. Mr. DeAmico indicated his concurrence with that suggestion. Dr. Kennedy suggested to Mr. DeAmico that he consult with other boat dealers and present a proposal to the Council in regard to charging a surcharge because he felt that the council would be able to consider this. Discussion followed on taxes generated and income for the City from the boat dealers. Council Member Dumphy stated that he felt that commercial boat dealers using public space for their business operation should pay more for them. Mr. DeAmica stated that his business consists of five separate entities and the increased cost will damage his potential for profit. He reiterated that they pay the necessary taxes associated with their business. Mayor Jones stated that he felt that anyone running a business should be charged for using public space for the operation of that business which is essentially what boat slips are if boats are docked there for sale. Mr. DeAmico then referred to a letter he had written sometime ago which contained information about the practice in other cities which usually allows the sale of boats from their boat slips. He also reiterated that he would like to eliminate the requirement of one boat for one slip. 'es lar Council Meeting umber 4, 1981 Page 13 Mr. Utter stated that the Marina Board had considered the possibility of allowing two boats in one slip but from an aesthetic point of view, they felt that one boat in a slip was all that should be allowed. Mr. Terry Dopson, Director of Parks and Recreation, stated that there is a City ordinance that requires one boat in one slip and the brokers started putting in more boats in each of the slips thatthey own. Mayor Pro Tem Turner stated that she was of the opinion that since there is such a shortage of boat slips and if boats are sold from boat slips, the City should derive some benefit from this. She suggested that a percentage of the gross sales be considered for the City. Mr. Utter stated that the City could have a recommended minimum charge or a percentage of gross from the sale of boats. He stated that the Staff could study this and refer it to the Marina Board. Mr. Dopson noted that most cities charge for slip rental according to the length of the boat. He also informed the Council that some of the brokers dock boats in their slips for their own personal use, and sometimes they sell boats and allow the new owner to continue to dock the boat in that slip. Mayor Pro Tem Turner suggested that the ordinance be passed on second reading and that a report on these items be presented to the Council prior to the third reading of the ordinance. Mayor Jones noted that Mr. J. C. Cagle was in the audience and read the resolution pertaining to the agreement signed by the former City Manager on the Weil Park dedication. Mr. Cagle inquired as to how this affects his request to the City Council, and Mayor Jones explained that the resolution says that this City Council does not condone what was done for Mr. Weil and does not plan to do this for anyone else. He stated that they do feel that the ordinance should not be changed until the court case has been decided. He informed Mr. Cagle that the matter was discussed at length during the morning Workshop Meeting and the resolution on the agenda does reflect the feeling of the majority of the City Council, and he was of the opinion that the ordinance is still in effect until the lawsuit has been decided. Mr. Briones inquired of Mr. Cagle the status of his plat, and Mr. Cagle replied that it is still being held up until the park dedication has been decided on. Minutes Regular Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 14 Mayor Jones noted that the Weil agreement allowed Mr. Weil to place money in escrow for en in lieu of park dedication and with the understanding that a lawsuit would be filed to determine whether or not the ordinance should be changed. Mr. Cagle indicated that was what he would like to do also. Council Member Kennedy pointed out that this Council did not allow Mr. Weil to do this, and this Council does not condone the action by the City Manager to allow the signing of the agreement. Mr. Cagle reiterated that he just wanted to do the same thing that Mr. Weil had done, and Dr. Kennedy suggested that he put the money up and then go ahead and file his lawsuit. Council Member Zarsky informed Mr. Cagle that he voted against the passage of this resolution because he agreed that placing money in escrow is sufficient for delaying a park dedication because he feels that a trust account is just as good as putting the money in the park fund. There were no further comments on the ordinances. City Secretary polled the Council for their votes; and the following ordinances were passed: FIRST READING: AMENDING SECTION 57-83 OF THE CITY OF CORPUS CHRISTI CODE OF ORDINANCES BY CHANGING THE FREQUENCY OF TAXICAB INSPECTIONS FROM AT LEAST ONCE EVERY THREE MONTHS TO AT LEAST ONCE EVERY SIX MONTHS AS MORE FULLY SET FORTH HEREIN; REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT HEREWITH.

He stated that this is the second oldest house in the City and informed the Council that a number of prominent citizens have been associated with it. Dr. Marcum stated that the Landmark Commission considered a location for the house to be moved to and discussed it with the Staff and they feel that it possibly could be located in the same area as the other Victorian houses in the Convenion Center area. He stated that the Landmark Commission would like to have an opportunity to present the matter next week either during Workshop or Regular Council Meeting. He stated that they have received two proposals from nonprofit organizations who wished to undertake the restoration of the house.

The motion passed unanimously. ********** Mayor Jones called for petitions or information from the audience on matters not scheduled on the agenda. Mr. J. S. Pagan, 4243 Ocean Drive, referred to the present remodeling of the Airport. He had a drawing of the airport improvements and reviewed the traffic pattern for the new plans. He stated that he objected to the one-way door to the baggage area because he felt that there would be a better way to do this. He suggested that a second security door be considered and the baggage concourse be increased in size by eliminating a wall. Council Member Zarsky agreed with Mr. Pagan's suggestion but stated that the airlines do not want to pay for more than one security gate. Mr. Pagan stated that he did not feel that the airlines should dictate how the airport should be operated. He requested that they be allowed to appear before the Council in regard to this. Mayor Jones stated that he would not object to another hearing but everyone involved should be allowed to attend, not just the car rental agencies. He pointed out that someone will have to pay for the increase in security personnel that would be required if an additional gate is installed; this City's landing fees are already the second highest in the State and he then inquired of Mr.' Pagan why he is interested in this. Mr. Pagan stated that he is just speaking as an interested citizens but he admitted that he will have to move his rental car location no matter how the design of the airport is changed. A motion was made by Council Member Zarsky that this be discussed by the Council in two weeks; seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Turner. Mr. Briones suggested that Mr. Pagan meet with Assistant City Manager Lontos and consult with the architect to consider these changes. Minutes Regular Council Meeting November 4, 1981 Page 28 Council Members Kennedy and Gulley expressed the opinion that Mr. Pagan's suggestion would improve the airport. Mayor Jones pointed out that the City has employed the very best architects they could find to design the airport improvements. The motion to discuss this matter in two weeks passed unanimously. Mr. Clay Moore, 325 South Morningside, referred to the flooding that had occurred in the Convention Center area after the weekend rains. He stated that he felt that the drainage problem was becoming worse and all of the construction in that area has increased the drainage problem. Mr. Briones assured Mr. Moore that he has requested a report on the drainage in the area which should be available in a week or two. Mr. Alfredo Martinez, 805 23rd Street, expressed concern about the fire ants in his neighborhood. He stated that he understands that authorities have been examining them but nothing has been done. Council Member Gulley stated that he also was aware that the fire ants are very bad in the City and the ants were brought in from another state in some construction equipment. He explained methods he had employed to eliminate the fire ants in his neighborhood. An unidentified lady in the audience stated that a number of officials from all over the state have attempted to find a way to eliminate the fire ants. Mrs. Dorothy Corcoran stated that fire ants are in Windsor Park and the children cannot even play there. Mayor Jones requested a report from the Health Department on the fire ants. Mr. Briones presented to the Council a recommendation of the Staff on the type of carpeting and color to be used in the Greater Northwest Library.
