Assistant City Manager Elizondo and Building Official, Lorenzo Gonzales, presented a brief overview on the issue of the permit fees and licensing requirements. Mr. Elizondo explained how the issue began when it was proposed to make some changes in the permit fee structure. He stated that staff did not recommend that any construction standards be changed nor were new standards put in place. Mr. Elizondo stated that the fee increase which was recommended was a result of the City identifying what it was costing them to do business. Mr. Elizondo continued by stating that the action taken by City Council increased existing fees, adopted a standardized valuation table for commercial projects and instituted a $200 administrative fee. He noted that a great deal of concern was expressed by the community. He stated that as a result of those concerns, Lorenzo Gonzales was asked to formalize a list of what he thought would be minor repairs. Mr. Elizondo noted that because of the misunderstanding in the community, the City Council suspended the $200 administrative fee and directed the various Boards and Commissions and staff to review the issue. Mr. Elizondo noted that several meetings were held by various Boards and Committees and the discussions centered around licensing criteria, permitting requirements, inspections required and fees. Ainutes Regular Council Meeting May 9, 1989 Page 4 Building Official Gonzales commented on the various meetings held by the Boards and Committees which resulted in fourteen different actions. He then elaborated on the recommendations of the Building Code Board of Appeals; the Electrical Advisory Board; the Mechanical Advisory Committee and the Senior Community Advisory Committee. Council Member Rhodes expressed the opinion that the presentation is difficult to follow, suggesting that the Council be provided the recommendations of the staff and the Boards and Committees so that the Council can review what Is being presented. Mayor Turner noted that a real concern is that the City's local ordinance not be more restrictive than the state requirements, and Mr. Gonzales indicated that everything that has been worked out and discussed at the Board and Committee meetings has been using the guidance contained in the state laws. Mr. Gonzales indicated that the list of items which do not require a permit has been revised and amended, stating that each Board and Committee deleted and added items. Council Member Martin expressed the opinion that those Boards and Committees agree on some of the items. He requested that a list be provided the Council of those things that are being changed; find out the Boards' and Committees' positions; determine what the issues are; and allow the Council to act as the arbitrator on the issues. Council Member McComb stated that he felt one issue that had presented a problem was the requirement for citizens to obtain a permit for minor repairs at their residences. He stated that he had also received complaints from full-time maintenance employees of apartment and office buildings, and he felt that issue should be resolved. Mayor Turner agreed that some relief should be provided for apartment and building maintenance employees. Mayor Turner also requested that the staff provide the Council with a comparison of the City code to that of the state to be sure that the City's is not more restrictive. Council Member Martin disagreed, stating that there is no need to compare this City's codes to those of the state because this is a local issue. Mayor Turner reiterated that she would like to have the comparison. Council Member McComb reminded the Council that discussion had occurred at the retreat when one Council Member requests a report, a majority of the Council should concur before it is provided. Mayor Turner stated again that she would like to have that report on the differences between this City's code and the state's code. Minutes Regular Council Meeting May 9, 1989 Page 5 Council Member McComb suggested that if the public were allowed to speak, the Council would be aware of their concerns and the staff could work from that point. Assistant City Manager Elizondo explained that the report that has been presented today are the opinions of the Boards and Commissions. It was the consensus of the Council that written information relative to the staff's recommendation be provided the Council before the next discussion of this issue. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Turner announced the presentation on the Kennedy Causeway Advisory Committee. Mr. Charles Rawalt, a representative on the Kennedy Causeway Advisory Committee, read the following statement to the Council. "The Kennedy Causeway Advisory Committee, in its meeting of April 24, 1989, voted 7 to 1 in favor of presenting the following recommendation to the Corpus Christi City Council: The Kennedy Causeway Advisory Committee strongly recommends that the City Council take action to strike from the Mustang/Padre Island Development Plan the mention of a specific location for a boat pass through the islands to the Gulf of Mexico until the completion of the hydraulic study of the area waters now being conducted under the direction of Dr. James H. Duke. The City Council created the Kennedy Causeway Committee, endorsed the hydraulic study and contributed to the cost of that study. Certainly, the City Council should want to consider the results of this study before making any premature statements which might later prove to be detrimental to the environment." Ms. Pat Suter, Vice Chairman of the Kennedy Causeway Advisory Committee, stated that the General Land Office is in the process of conducting a study; they will have a meeting tomorrow morning at CCSU; and they are getting together the various groups in the area who are interested in the quality of the Laguna Madre. She stated that there are other passes under consideration and a number of entities are concerned with funding state and federal monies going into the study of Laguna Madre. Ms. Suter continued by stating that the General Land Office has primary jurisdiction over Packery Channel and will not allow the dredging of Packery Channel pending the study. Relative to a question from Council Member Rhodes regarding the pending election, City Secretary Chapa informed the Council that the petition has not yet been certified; and once it is certified, the Council does have the option to repeal the ordinance. He stated that if the Council does not repeal the ordinance, they are bound to have an election on the next available uniform election date. Minutes Regular Council Meeting May 9, 1989 Page 6 City Manager Garza noted that if the Council repeals the ordinance and at a later date after the study is completed, adopts an ordinance without Packery Channel, it could be argued that the plans are substantially alike. He stated that the Council should be careful that it is not a contrivance to circumvent the petition. Mr. Garza stated that the Council does have some options; they are limited; and he would have to have time to consider them. In answer to a question from Council Member Schwing relative to the time frame for completion of the entire study, Ms. Suter responded by stating that Dr. Duke has currently been commissioned by the General Land Office for a $60,000 study to which the City contributed $20,000. She stated that this study is expected to have substantial results within ninety days. She stated that she does not know the finalized date for the entire study. Ms. Suter indicated that there is no one more anxious to develop the Kennedy Causeway than the General Land Office. Discussion followed and Council Member Martin expressed the opinion that the Council should be made aware of what the City's options are and should be guaranteed it is a certified petition. Mr. Martin stated that this subject should be made an agenda item for Council discussion. It was the consensus of the Council that this item be scheduled on the agenda no later than June 6th. In answer to a question from Council Member McComb relative to the study, City Manager Garza explained that the study was commissioned to determine what the effect would be on the salinity levels of the Laguna Madre by opening up a path on the Kennedy Causeway. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Turner referred to the Board & Committee appointments and the following appointments were made by the Council: Housing Authority Kennedy Causeway Advisory Committee Eduardo Hinojosa - Reappointed Joe Garcia - Reappointed * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Turner recessed the Council Meeting at 4:40 p.m. for a short recess. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Turner reconvened the Council Meeting at 4:55 p.m. and called for approval of Consent Motions, Resolutions, Ordinances and Ordinances from previous meetings on Items 1 thru 6.
