Council Member Gulley reiterated that there is nothing in the platting requirement that speaks to annexation. Motion by Zarsky to table the issue of annexation on the Coles Industrial Subdivision; seconded by Hawkins; and passed unanimously. ********** Mayor Jones announced the public hearing on the following matter: Paving assessments for short sections of Mestina and Artesian Streets on the west side of the County Courthouse. 140 feet of Mestina Street and 125 feet of Artesian Street do not have curb and gutters and were not included in the Courthouse Area Street Improvement project. Proposed _construction of curbs and paving improvements will complete the area streets and thus improve the neighborhood. It is recommended that the work be included in the Nueces County Courthouse Area Street Improvement project by change order. The cost of these improvements is estimated at $6,800 with property owners assessments at $6,693.76. City Manager Townsend stated that Mestina and Artesian Streets should be included in the Nueces County Courthouse Street project. _ Assistant City Attorney Bob Coffin informed the Council that this hearing is necessary to provide the basis for this Council in its legislative capacity to determine if the cost of the assessments to the property owner is equal to the enhancement of the property. Assistant City Attorney Coffin called as his first witness Mr. Gerald Smith. Through questioning of Mr. Smith he determined that he has been employed as Chief Engineer in the Engineering and Physical Development Department of the City of Corpus Christi; Mr. Smith is a Civil Engineer registered in the State of Texas; he obtained his degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin; and that he has been employed by the City in his present position for approximately 11 years. Chief Engineer Smith displayed a transparency and located the streets already included in the project as well as Mestina and Artesian Streets which are proposed to be included in that project. He explained that a contract for the Nueces Courthouse Area Street Improvements was awarded on August 26, 1981 to the low bidder, Isles Construction Company and after the award, there Minutes ilar Council Meeting .ember 30, •1981 • rage 14 was a request to add some minor work on the other side of the Courthouse. He described the plans for the improvements of Mestina and Artesian Streets, indicating that the improvements will consist of excavation to a width and depth to permit the, laying of header curb, 6" compacted subgrade, 8" compacted caliche base, and 11/2" type D hot asphaltic concrete pavement. He stated that construction of these street sections will be three feet wide on the west side of Artesian Street and eight feet wide on the north side of Mestina Street as shown on the plans. He also noted that completed construction will provide sidewalks and a 40 -foot wide all-weather street section on both streets. Mr. Smith stated that the Staff proposes that these streets be added to the project by change order at a cost to the only property owner affected, Breslau Furniture Company, of $6,209.86 for the streets. He noted that parking is prevalent on both streets and the Traffic Engineering Department is discussing this aspect of the street improvements. Council Member Dumphy at this point interjected a question as to who is responsible for mowing the grass in that area and City Manager Townsend replied that the abutting property owners are responsible. Discussion followed on uncut grass in easements. Assistant City Attorney Coffin explained that when rights-of-way are abandoned, the abutting owner acquires the property and is responsible for maintenance. Council Member Zarsky inquired if notices are sent to property owners that they .are responsible for mowing, and City Manager Townsend replied not on a regular basis, but only when complaints are received in Neighborhood Improvement Department. Mayor Jones inquired about the possibility of newspaper advertising to the effect that abutting property owners are responsible for mowing the easements. City Manager Townsend explained that that is permissible and is a very good idea. Council Member Zarsky suggested that a regular ad be inserted in the newspaper to this effect and also suggested that the Staff contact any news media that provides free public service announcements to ask that they make an announcement that easements belong to the abutting property owner who is responsible for mowing. -lues ilar Council Meeting cember 30, '1981 ' Page 15 City Manager Townsend assured the Council that this will be brought to the attention of Information Services Department. Mr. Coffin called as his next witness, Mr. W. J. Holly, Real Estate Broker and Appraiser. Assistant City Attorney Coffin questioned Mr. Holly and determined that he is a Real Estate Broker and Appraiser registered in the State of Texas; that he has been appraising property for over 28 years; his experience includes work for the City of Corpus Christi for the past six years; and that he is thoroughly familiar with the paving project for this area. Mr. Holly testified that he has examined this property and discussed it with the owners of the Braslau Company. He stated that all of the lots are regular shaped, and in his opinion, the value of this property will be enhanced at least in the amount of the assessment. Mr. Tony Norrell, secretary for Braslau, stated that they do not feel that they will receive as much benefit as the amount of the assessment which is in the amount of over $6,200. He stated that every space around their property is filled with parked cars; it is impossible for them to mow their right-of-way because of this; and they do not feel that their customers will receive any benefit since they do not have space to park. He stated that they have requested a traffic light at the intersection of Artesian and Leopard Street because their trucks have difficulty in exiting the area. He noted that the Nueces County Courthouse address is listed as being on Leopard Street and everyone from out-of-town goes by that corner. He informed the Council that their employees have to walk several blocks down Leopard Street through the construction area and this is particularly bad for their lady employees. Mr. Norrell expressed the opinion that if his company is going to have to invest $6,000, then something should be done about this parking and traffic situation. Mayor Jones suggested that the employer is responsible for the parking of his own employees. Mayor Pro Tem Turner agreed that there is a traffic problem at that corner and City Manager Townsend stated that the Traffic Engineer is studying this now and traffic bumps at the curb could be included to be installed after the construction has been completed. A" -lutes • tlar Council Meeting -ember 30, '1981 • Page 16 City Manager Townsend also pointed out that the Traffic Safety Advisory Board is the board to which a request for a traffic light should be addressed. There were no further comments on this subject. Motion by Gulley that the hearing be closed, seconded by Turner, and passed unanimously. Motion by Hawkins that the preliminary assessment roll for the improvements to Artesian and Mestina Streets be approved; seconded by Dumphy; and passed by the following vote: Jones, Dumphy, Gulley, and Hawkins voting, "Aye"; Turner, Kennedy and Zarsky, absent from the Council Chamber at the time the vote was taken. Mayor Jones announced the pending zoning on the following, case: City of Corpus Christi, from "A-2" and "R-2" to "R -1B" located south of Mary Street, north of Highland Boulevard, between Osage Street and Duncan, Dolores Avenues. This application was heard on September 9, 1981, and was tabled so that the staff could contact the property owners within the area proposed to be changed and explain in more deail the reason for the City's request to change the area from multi -family to single-family. Fourteen property owners were opposed, of which nine are now in favor as a result of further discussion. City Manager Townsend informed the Council that the Staff has worked with the property owners, and seven of them who previously objected to the change of zoning have now agreed to it. Chief Planner Larry Wenger briefly summarized the case that was previously heard, showing slides, etc. He explained the contacts that were made with the property owners in the area and pointed out the location of the property whose owners still object to the change of zoning. He informed the Council that most of the property is occupied with single-family dwellings even though the zoning is "A-2" or "R-2". City Manager Townsend commented that it was his understanding that the Council wanted the Staff to contact all property owners who objected, and if they concur with the change, their property should be included in the ordinance and those who still objected to the change of zoning, should have their property deleted from the ordinance. There being no further testimony offered or any further parties appearing to be heard, upon proper motion, duly seconded and unanimously carried, the said hearing was declared closed; and WHEREAS, no further parties appearing and no further testimony being offered as to the special benefits in relation to the enhanced value of said abutting property as compared to cost of the improvements of said portion of said streets proposed to be assessed against said property, or as to any errors, invalidities or irregularities, in the proceeding or con- tract heretofore had in reference to the portions of said streets to be improved; and WHEREAS, said City Council has heard evidence as to the special benefits and enhanced value to accrue to said abutting property, and the real and true owner or owners thereof, as compared with the cost of making said improvements on said streets within the limits above defined, -and has heard all parties appearing and offering testimony, together with all protests and objections relative to such matters and as to any errors, invalidities or irregularities in any of the proceedings and contract for said improvements, and has given a full and fair hearing to all parties making or desiring to make any such protest, objection or offer testimony and has fully examined and considered all evidence, matters, objections and protests offered and based upon said evidence, testimony and state- ments, said City Council finds that each and every parcel of property abutting upon the portion of the streets aforesaid within the limits to be improved as herein defined, will be enhanced in value and specially bene- fited by the construction of said improvements upon the said streets upon which said property abuts, in an amount in excess of the amount of the cost of said improvements proposed to be, and as hereinbelow assessed against each and every said parcel of abutting property, and the real and true owners thereof, and said City Council did consider and correct all errors, invalidities or deficiences called to its attention and did find that all proceedings and contracts were proper and in accordance with the Charter of said City and the laws of the State of Texas, under which those proceed- ings were being had, and the proceedings of said City Council heretofore had with reference to such improvements, and in all respects to be valid -5- and regular; and said City Council did further find upon said evidence that the assessments hereinbelow made and the charges hereby declared against said abutting property on the portions of the streets hereinabove described, within the limits defined, and the real and true owner or owners thereof, are just and equitable and did adopt the rule of apportionment set out below and the division of the cost of said improvements between said abutting properties, and the real and true owner or owners thereof, as just and equitable, and as producing substantial equality considering the benefits to be received and the burdens imposed thereby, and that all objections and protests should be overruled and denied except the corrections and changes as appear on the final assessment roll included in this ordinance.
