The Charter Rule was suspended and the foregoing ordinance passed by the following vote: Turner, Berlanga, Brown, Kennedy, McComb and Slavik voting, "Aye"; Jones, Guerrero and Mendez, "absent". A motion was made by Council Member Kennedy that the assessment hearing scheduled for 3:00 p.m. be considered at this time; seconded by Council Member Brown; and passed unanimously. Mayor Pro Tem Turner announced the assessment hearing on the following subject: Cole Street Improvements Project providing for assessments of $32,196.01 for the 14 items on the roll. Assistant City Manager Lontos informed the Council that this project is a voluntary paving street project and it is included in the 1982 Street Bond fund. He stated that the City Attorney would conduct the formal portion of the public hearing. City Attorney Aycock called as his first witness, Mr. Gerald Smith, P.E., City Engineer. Through questioning of Mr. Smith, Mr. Aycock determined that he is a registered engineer in the State of Texas and that he has been employed by the City of Corpus Christi for twenty-five years. He verified that a copy of Mr. Smith's qualifications in resume form is on file in the City offices. inutes , aegular Council Meeting February 22, 1984 Page 15 Mr. Smith testified that he is familiar with this project and the project includes improvements to Cole Street from Santa Fe Street to Ocean Drive. He stated that plans were prepared in the City Engineering offices and the plans are to construct a 28 -foot wide street with the laying of a standard 6" curb and gutter section, 6" compacted subgrade, 8" compacted caliche base and 1-11" Type D hot -mix asphaltic pavement. He stated that the existing right-of-way is 6 -feet wide and a 4 -foot wide reinforced concrete sidewalk will be installed on both sides of the street six feet off the property line. He stated that a new water line will also be installed and 200 feet of sewer line will be constructed as a bypass to provide better service. Mr. Smith stated that bids on this project were received January 11, 1984 and the low bid was that submitted by Ibanez Construction Company at a price of $97,794. Mr. Smith then explained the assessment rate as follows: Commercial property: 6" curb, gutter & pavement - $19.50 per linear foot; Sidewalk: $1.00 per square foot; Driveways: $2.86 per square foot. Residential property will be assessed as follows: 6" curb gutter & pavement - $9.75 per linear foot; Sidewalk: $1.00 per square foot; and Driveways: $2.86 per square foot. He stated that the total preliminary assessment roll is $30,693.93. Mr. Smith explained that the assessments will not be due until the completion of the project, at which time, the property owners may pay in cash or in monthly installments for a five-year period at an interest rate of 8% or in case of a hardship, the payments may be extended over a ten-year period. He stated that the contractor will have 40 working days to complete the street improvements, or approximately two months. Mr. Smith called attention to copies of two petitions that were received on this project -- one dated November 22, 1983 in which the property owners request that the sidewalk construction adjoin the curb to eliminate encroachment into the property yards; and the other dated February 18, 1984 which again requested that the new sidewalk be laid abutting the new street curb. Mr. Smith stated thct the Staff recommends the six-foot line because of the wide right-of-way, noting that they do not think that a sidewalk should be poured adjacent to the curb because it would be unsafe for pedestrians. Mr. Smith also informed the Council that there are many trees on the street and it is the policy of the City to save as many as possible and this policy will be in effect during this street construction. Council Member Slavik inquired if the Staff had met with the property owners, and Mr. Smith explained that on November 1, 1983, they had a meeting in the Council Chamber which was attended by five of the fourteen property owners. He explained that since there is sixteen feet of right-of-way, the Staff still recommends that the sidewalks be located six feet from the property line and they object to placing the sidewalk adjacent to the curb because it is more dangerous and it gives the neighborhood a commercial look. Council Member Slavik indicated that she agreed with the Staff's plan for the sidewalks. Mihutes'. Regular Council Meeting February 22, 1984 Page 16 City Attorney Aycock inquired if the drainage in the area will be imiroved through this street reconstruction, and Mr. Smith replied that it would. He explained that they intend to install a new underground storm sewer with catch basins, etc. City Attorney Aycock called as his next witness Mr. George N. Paraskevas, CRB, ICA. Through questioning of the witness, Mr. Aycock ascertained that he is qualified to testify because of his experience as a real estate appraiser and broker and stated that he has a copy of his qualifications in resume form on file in the City offices. Mr. Paraskevas testified that he felt that all of the property will be enhanced at least in the amount of the assessment and he was of the opinion that the sidewalk should be placed six feet from the property line. Council Member McComb referred to the recent petition submitted by these residents and noted that they had suggested that the condition of the sewer and drainage lines be evaluated before the street is reconditioned. Mr. Smith explained that this is an older part of the City; the sanitary sewer lines are in the easement; and drainage crosses Cole Street. He explained again that the City will install an interconnect line to help improve the sewer system. Mr. Lontos further explained that the problem in this area is that there are many large trees and roots have grown into the sewer lines. He expressed the opinion that if they are not obstructed by roots, the lines will be in acceptable condition. Mayor Pro Tem Turner called on members of the audience to speak at this time. Mrs. Catherine Countiss, who resides at 1802 Third Street with property siding on Cole Street, referred to the sewer line. She explained the location of she sewer line as it extends to serve the property. She informed the Council that during very rainy weather, the sewer lines overflow and she hopes that the City will correct this problem. Mr. Lontos assured Mrs. Countiss that the Staff is aware of that problem and they will investigate it. He assured the Council that the Staff always tries to complete utility work before the street reconstruction and they will do this as much as possible on this project. He reiterated that this is a very old subdivision and they are not sure about the location of all of the utility lines. Mr. John Brooke, Attorney, stated that he owns property facing on Cole Street at its intersection with Ocean Drive. He stated that it is rental property and he has owned it for many years, He expressed the opinion that if this project is completed with the sidewalks attached to the curb, the value of _nutes .,egular Council Meeting February 22, 1984 Page 17 the property will be increased. Mr. Brooke stated that he would like to request two items: (1) that the sidewalks be constructed adjacent to the curb; and (2) when necessary, that the sidewalks be made more narrow to avoid destroying the beautiful old trees on his property. He pointed out also that there are not many pedestrians in the neighborhood. Mr. Laurell Thatcher, 118 Cole Street, pointed out that most of the houses are built near the street and in his opinion, installing sidewalks six feet from the property line would place them too close to the houses. Mayor Pro Tem Turner inquired if there is any precedent for constructing sidewalks adjacent to the curb, and Mr. Smith replied that the only places that the City has done so is when the City does not have enough right-of-way and in some commercial areas. He pointed out that this is not a commercial type of development. He explained that the distance the sidewalks will be from the houses varies from ten to twelve feet to as far back as twenty feet. He pointed out to the Council that the City places sidewalks one foot off the property line and in this case they are recommending that they be installed six feet off the property line which is a much greater distance than usual in residential areas. Mrs. Gertrude Thatcher, 118 Cole Street, stated that the sidewalks as planned will be within four feet of her living room. No one else spoke in regard to these assessments. A motion was made by Council Member Kennedy that the hearing be closed, seconded by Council Member Brown and passed unanimously. Council Member Kennedy stated that he is familiar with this area and he would like for the Staff to consider installing the sidewalks next to the curb because he felt that there was very little pedestrian traffic. A motion was made by Council Member Kennedy that the plans for Cole Street imp'-ocements be changed to install five-foot wide sidewalks adjacent to the curl_ The motion was seconded by Council Member Brown and passed unanimously. Mayor Pro Tem Turner announced the public hearing on the following street closing: Closing Blucher Street from Carrizo to Tancahua Streets. The new library is proposed to be constructed in this portion of Blucher Street with considerable relocation work being necessary to accommodate this building. 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 contract 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 statements, 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 benefited by the construction of said improvements upon the said streets upon which 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 deficiencies 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 proceedings were being had, and the proceedings of said City Council heretofore had with reference to such improvements, and in all respects to be valid 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.
