Motion authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute a construction contract in
the amount of $128,372 with CamRett, Corporation of Corpus Christi, Texas, for the Price
Park Complex public restroom improvements project.
The foregoing motion passed by the following vote: Neal, Chesney, Colmenero, Garrett,

Mayor Neal referred to the presentations on the day's agenda and the first presentation was
made by Mr. Cisneros and Ms. Michelle Moffitt, project coordinator of"Revitaliziana." Using a
computer presentation, Ms. Moffitt explained that the mission of this grassroots organization is to
promote positive civic thinking and civic pride in the urban area through the restoration of natural
habitat for native and migratory wildlife, and the "regreening" and revitalization of the ecological
health of Louisiana Parkway.
Ms. Moffitt noted that Louisiana Parkway, which is a linear parkway flanked on both sides
by two lanes of traffic and one parking lane, is over one mile in length and links Ocean Drive with
Staples Street. It bisects diverse demographic neighborhoods and borders Menger Elementary and
Trinity Lutheran Church. She said the project envisions the creation of a virtual moving parkway
with the reduction of the double traffic lanes to a single traffic lane with a bike lane on each side of
the parkway. She said the bike lanes will link Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, all the
bayfront parks and Del Mar College. In addition, the parkway would include a six-foot wide crushed
granite walkway which will exceed ADA requirements and be user friendly to the visually impaired.
She said they also plan to renovate the bus stops at Alameda and Santa Fe streets.
Ms. Moffitt said the project will also include planting a minimum of 250 medium to large
trees, several flowering planting beds, a green space for children, park benches, statuary, drinking
fountains, litter containers, and a living memorial plaza recognizing donors to the privately funded
project. She also discussed the project's benefits to the community and said the projected total cost
is $2.6 million with a three- to five-year time line.
She said the parmers in this project are the city, the Regional Transportation Authority
(RTA), the community, AEP/CPL Company, and the Nueces County Juvenile Probation
Depmtment's "Make Amends" program. Ms. Moffitt said the city's involvement will entail the
following: changing the traffic lanes from double to single and adding a bike lane; supplying water
and electricity; delivering mulch; maintaining the parkway grass until the project's completion; and
providing assistance with government grant applications and a letter of endorsement. She said the
RTA has submitted a grant request to TXDOT to fund the renovation of the four bus stops and she
discussed the efforts of community members to begin improving the parkway to show their
commitment to the project.

Ms. Moffitt said the organizers are in the process of acquiring non-profit corporate status and
they are committing to handle the maintenance contract for a minimum of two years after the project
is completed. She said they have also established funding depositories with Beautify Corpus Christi
Association (BCCA) for funds up to $10,000 and Coastal Bend Community Foundation for the
balance of funds over $10,000 as well as the maintenance trust fund. She said they are soliciting
funds from the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission and the Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department, as well as advisory relationships with BCCA and the Tree Awareness Council. Mr.
Robert Gignac, landscape architect, discussed details about the project using a schematic design.
Ms. Moffitt and city staff members, including Mr. Cisneros and Mr. David Seiler, Traffic
Engineer, responded to several questions from Council members. Issues discussed included the
traffic lanes, project funding and budget, parkway maintenance, and specifics about the location of
various planned improvements. Ms. Moffitt emphasized that the organizers are not asking the city
for funding but rather for advisory support in grant writing and a commitment for water and mulch.
The second presentation (Item 16) was made by Ms. Gwen Goodwin, Data Specialist with
the U.S. Census Bureau of the Department of Commerce. She explained that Census 2000 is
different from other years in that the department is not printing very much information on paper but
rather providing a vast amount of data on their website (www.census.gov). She said the first
information the Census Bureau released was the redistricting data and next month they should be
releasing a detailed report on data statistics for age, race, sex, and housing occupancy.
Ms. Goodwin said the bureau will be changing the way it will collect data for the 2010 census
by using a three-pronged approach: using the global positioning system and continuously updating
master address files; using the American Community Survey to provide annual data; and
reengineering the short form and eliminating the long form. She said she is making presentations to
a variety of community organizations to assist them in accessing data. Mayor Neal thanked Ms.
Goodwin for providing this information and he noted that former Council Member Betty Jean
Longoria and Ms. Carol Scott headed up the local census committee. Council Member Colmenero
also thanked Ms. Goodwin for recently addressing the Association of Hispanic Municipal Officials.
The third presentation (Item 17) was regarding the city's grant administration efforts.
Assistant City Manager Tom Utter, who oversees the Intergovernmental Relations Division, said the
amount of grants and reimbursement contracts coordinated by his office and Housing and
Community Development in the last 15 months is $21,918,951. In addition, there are eight
applications pending in the amotmt of $3,335,320, as well as other grants that do not go through his
office in the amount of about $13 million.
Mr. Utter described some of the grants the Intergovernmental Relations Division has assisted
with since April 1, 2000. The grantors included the Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries Program,
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting

Department of Justice, Texas Automobile Thefi Prevention, Texas Depm tment of Transportation,
Texas General Land Office, and U.S. Congress. He also discussed the eight pending grant requests,
which encompass such projects as lead hazard control, youthbuild, Bay Trail Phase III, hike and bike
trails on Gypsy Street and Encantada Avenue, and numerous projects awaiting determination from
the TNRCC.
Ms. Patricia Garcia, Intergovernmental Relations Specialist, said they have developed a
grants committee which focuses on the coordination of grant applications and the development of
furore proposals. She said once the grants are awarded, there are reporting requirements that must
be met; consequently, they are working with TAMU-CC to utilize interns to assist with those efforts.
She said they are deciding whether to mm in a grant for an empowerment zone designation or a
renewal community grant to spur economic development. Mr. Utter and Ms. Garcia fiather discussed
elements of the empowerment zone and renewal community grants and responded to Council
members' questions. Mayor Neal said he would like the city to emphasize a consolidated approach
to grant requests, which should be tied to the city's fiscal year and include the affected departments.
Mayor Neal called for a brief recess. Upon reconvening, the Mayor referred to Items 18 and
19 on the agenda regarding the city's proposed budget. He said that for the last year he and the City
Manager have been meeting with Nueces County Judge Richard Bomhard and his staff as well as
members of the Nueces County Hospital District to explore the possibility of combining, through
a cooperative agreement, the Corpus Christi-Nueces County Public Health District (PHD). He
explained that the PHD is a coordinated group of city, county and state employees, many of whom
share common duties but do not share common benefits or salaries.
The Mayor said that at the county's initiation, the city entered into a lengthy discussion with
the county, which hired a consultant who prepared a report on the issue. He said during the last year
it was his understanding and that of other city officials that a process was being formulated to allow
for the coordination of the PHD into the county and ultimately into the hospital district. He said the
reason for this effort was to eliminate duplication of efforts, improve the delivery of public health
services, and allow the city to recognize a substantial savings in the city's budget by transferring
responsibilities to either the county or the hospital district.
The Mayor said when the city held its public hearing on June 26, 2001, for the proposed
FY2001-02 operating budget, they were of the understanding that approximately $1 million of
General Fund costs would be the responsibility of the proposed county hospital district arrangement.
In exchange for that, the city would retain certain functions, such as Vector Control and Animal
Control (for which a new voter-approved facility will be built); replace the Health Department roof;
and continue to work with the hospital district in the establishment of a clinic on the westside.
However, after that time a city staff member was informed by a member of the Commissioners Court
that the proposed agreement had been sidetracked. Neither the Mayor nor the City Manager was
formally notified that the city will now have a $1 million shortfall in the General Fund budget.

Deputy City Manager Noe said city staffdoes not yet have a specific recommendation for
making up the $1,133,949 that had been proposed to be paid by the county's program. He did discuss
the following possible alternatives: eliminate the enhanced/restored street maintenance program -
$500,000; eliminate the trash program reduction - $120,000; reduce the programmed cost of living
increase by 1% - $736,951; eliminate the merit program - $250,000; eliminate the refuge of last
resort program - $80,000; eliminate the fire academy and ambulance phase-in - $137,051; eliminate
enhancements for a "one-stop" development center - $100,000; eliminate park maintenance
restoration/enhancement - $104,140; and defer the wheeler/loader rebuild - $105,000, for a total of
$2,133,142.
Mayor Neal said the Council had also tentatively approved approximately $300,000 in "add-
ons" to the budget that need to be considered. The Mayor then made a motion to table Items 18 and
19 until July 17, 2001; seconded by Council Member Colmenero, and passed.

Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 20, Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS).
Ms. Cynthia Garcia, Director of Human Resources, said TMRS is the retirement plan adopted
by the city for all employees except for firefighters. She said the employee contribution is 5% of
salary and the city's contribution is acmrarily determined. It consists of an employee match, updated
service credits, and the cost of a retiree adjustment. Historically, this contribution is adopted by
Council by ordinance on an annual basis. Last April, in accordance with the collective bargaining
agreement between the city and the Police Officers Association, the Council adopted an ordinance
providing for the automatic adoption of the TMRS rate, as long as the benefits remained unchanged.
Ms. Garcia said this proposed ordinance will remove the statutory cap of 11.5% for the
contribution rate so that the Council can approve the recommended contribution rate for next year
of 11.51%. She said that rate consists of the following: 7.13% employee match; 0.04% attributable
to a newly enacted five-year vesting period scheduled to become effective in January 2002; 4.24%
for updated service credits (of which 0.01% is attributable to the new vesting period); and 0.14% for
retiree adjustments. She said the total 0.05% attributable to the new vesting period would cost the
city $26,056 for FY2001-02.
Mr. Gary Anderson, Executive Director of TMRS, said Corpus Christi has been a member
of TMRS for 51 years and is the second largest city in the plan (behind San Antonio). He said each
city has control over the scope of its retirement benefits under the broad rules set by the state.
Responding to Council Member Kinnison, Ms. Garcia explained that as established by the
2001 Legislature, all participating TMRS cities will be automatically covered by the five-year
vesting provision unless they opt to remain at 1 O-year vesting by passing an ordinance (before
December 31,2001) to opt out of the new provision. Mr. Anderson further explained the concept
of five-year vesting. Mr. Mark McDaniel, Director of Management and Budget, said the rate change
is included in the proposed budget. There were no comments from the audience. City Secretary
Chapa polled the Council for their votes as follows:
20. FIRST READING ORDINANCE

System, the City of Corpus Christi to make current service and prior service contributions
to the City's account in the Municipal Accumulation Fund of the Texas Municipal
Retirement System at the actuarially determined rate of total employee compensation;
establishing an effective date for the ordinance; and providing for severance.
The foregoing ordinance passed on first reading by the following vote: Neal, Colmenero,
Garrett, Kelly, Kinnison, Longoria, Noyola, and Scott voting "Aye"; Chesney absent.
Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 21, supply agreement for Solid Waste Services
curbside collection containers. Mr. Massey noted that the automated collection vehicles are on order
and should be delivered in September; this action is to begin ordering the collection containers.
Mr. Mike Barrera, Procurement Manager, said the city developed specifications and put out
bids for the carts required for the program. He said they accepted the bids on June 6 and since then
staff has been evaluating the bids as well as options available under a cooperative bid through the
Houston Galveston Area Council (HGAC). He said there are differences between the city's bid
specifications and the HGAC specifications which deal primarily with wind stability, length of the
contract, and firm contract pricing.
Mr. Barrera said staff is recommending that the supply agreement be awarded to Schaefer
Systems International (of Charlotte, North Carolina), which was third on the pricing tier. He said the
apparent low bidder, Toter Inc., does not meet the city's wind requirements, while the apparent
second low bidder, Cascade Engineering, does not meet the 40 mph wind stability test for their 64-
gallon container.
Responding to Council Member Colmenero, Mr. Barrera said the city's specifications
required that the companies submit testing reports, and all of them submitted reports from Brigham
Young University. He said that on July 10th the Council received a letter from Mr. William Birth
of Cascade Engineering concerning the wind stability tests conducted by BYU. He included results
of wind stability tests that were conducted by the University of Michigan on Cascade's carts as well
as carts made by other manufacturers. Mr. Barrera said that according to the BYU study, the 90-
gallon containers made by three of the bidders (including Schaefer) met the 40-mph requirement;
in addition, the 60-gallon container made by Schaefer passed the wind test but the other bidders' 60-
gallon containers did not.
In reply to other questions from Mr. Colmenero, Mr. Jeffrey Kaplan, Director of Solid Waste
Services, described the timing of the ordering of the carts, noting that their goal is to implement the
first phase of the automated collection program by November 1,2001.
Council Member Garrett asked about the containers used during the pilot program. City
Manager Gareia replied that four different containers were tested in four different areas of the city,
and the results of the pilot program were used to prepare the specifications for this bid. Mr. Garrett
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
July 10, 2001
Page 12
asked if all the bidders wen aware of the wind requirements. Mr. Kaplan replied that staffheld a pre-
bid conference where they specifically highlighted the issues raised during the pilot program and the
unique weather conditions in Corpus Christi. He said the city also wanted the warranty to be for 10
years and the vendor would provide service within 24 hours or allow the city to be an authorized
warranty provider. Mr. Garrett said he was concerned about maimaining the integrity of the city's
bidding process.
Council Member Kelly said the pilot program was conducted in his neighborhood, and he
asked which container was used in the Calallen area. Mr. Lawrence Mikolajczyk, Assistant Director
of Solid Waste Services, said the Schaefer container was used in that area. In response to questions
from Mr. Kelly, Mr. Kaplan described the methodology used in the wind tunnel tests and he said
staff would like to use the same supplier for both the 90-gallon and the 60-gallon carts because of
the warranty provisions, magnitude of the parts issues involved, and to maintain consistency in
service and response time to customers.
Mr. Kelly asked why the city decided to go to the bid process rather than use the HGAC
purchasing program. Mr. Kaplan said the HGAC program's specifications are less stringent than the
city's; for example, they specify a minimum of 25 mph winds; they are general in reference to the
automated or semi-automated systems; and they do not specify the equipment with which the carts
will be utilized. He said the city's specifications indicate that the carts should meet the requirements
of the particular type of truck that the city has ordered as well as the brand of the semi-automated
tippers in the back of the trucks. He said the city also has far more rigid warranty specifications than
the HGAC contract.
Mr. Kelly asked if the Otto Industries carts that are being supplied under the HGAC
provisions meet the specifications for the city's program. Mr. Kaplan replied that Otto provided a
bid at a higher rate meeting the city's specifications, while their bid through HGAC has less stringent
specifications than the city's. He said staff's evaluation is based on what Otto bid as a price for the
cart and the assembly on the city's specifications. Mr. Kaplan added that the current HGAC contract
began on January 1,2001 and is a two-year contract, while the city is contracting for three years with
two one-year options to continue. As a result, if the city enters into the HGAC contract, there is a
question about who will be the vendor under that contract when the city makes its next purchase.
Mr. Barrera also explained why the carts provided by Toter Inc. and Cascade did not meet
the city's bid requirements. He said since none of the bidden' 30-gallon carts met the 40-mph wind
specifications, staff decided to delete that item from the bid package. He reiterated that both
Schaefer's 60-gallon and 90-gallon carts met the wind requirements while the others did not. He
added that Otto's bid was higher than Schaefer's bid.
In response to Council Member Noyola, Mr. Barrera said that while HGAC's wind
requirement is 25 mph (which companies have said is a standard throughout the country), Corpus
Christi often experiences winds of greater intensity. Mr. Mikolajczyk said that during the pilot
program, the container made by Zam used in the central area of the city had the highest failure rate
of blowing over in the wind, while the cart with the second highest failure rate was the Toter cart

used in the King's Crossing area. Mr. Garrett said the carts used in his neighborhood on Padre Island
did not have a problem during the pilot program.
Council Member Kinnison complimented staff for their thoroughness and professionalism
and for responding to the many questions that were raised during this bid process.
Mayor Neal called for public comment on Item 21.
Mr. Steve Phelps, Director of Sales with Otto Industries, said the cart his company is offering
under the HGAC option is exactly the same cart they offer throughout North America. He said that
according to Mr. Ban'era, the HGAC specifications were only requested and reviewed after the city's
bids were opened and Otto raised the question about spending the additional money. He said the
difference between the HGAC option and Schaefer's bid is approximately $200,000 because the
recommendation is different than what Otto representatives expected staffto make a few weeks ago.
He said the HGAC option meets all the city's mandated requirements for competitive bidding and,
in fact, the garbage trucks have been ordered under the HGAC contract. Mr. Phelps said there is no
substantial difference between the carts made by Otto and those made by Schaefer, but Otto's bid
under HGAC is $200,000 less. He said Otto is asking the Council to reject the bids and staff's
recommendation and to purchase the carts under the HGAC contract.
Responding to Mr. Kelly, Mr. Phelps acknowledged that Otto would not be able to guarantee
that they could maintain the HGAC contract beyond the contract term. However, Otto representatives
have told city staffthat they would be willing to accept a purchase order for delayed delivery subject
to cancellation before the HGAC contract expires. Mr. Kelly expressed concern that Otto submitted
a bid greatly in excess of what the city could have purchased the containers for under the HGAC
contract. Mr. Phelps said Otto did not consider that that question would be raised in the way it has
been. He said due to previous conversations with city staff and the fact that the city has purchased
items under the HGAC contract, Otto was under the impression that there would be serious
consideration given to the HGAC contract. Mr. Kelly said other Council members raised the question
of the integrity of the bidding process, and he said he had a problem with being placed in the position
they were in. Additional discussion ensued.
Mayor Neal said it was time to hear petitions from the audience on non-agenda items.
Mr. Jack Gordy, 310 Norton St., distributed copies of a letter he received from the Legal
Depad,,,ent as well as a copy of the state law referring to signs in the right-of-way. He said there is
no exemption for Cooper Outdoor Advertising and they do not have a permit for signs on bus
benches located in the right-of-way. He said the City Manager's first duty is to enforce all city
ordinances. He also said that election signs were supposed to have been removed 84 days ago.
Council Member Chesney asked about the removal of illegal political signs. City Attorney Bray said
reports of illegal signs are forwarded to the Code Enforcement Department.
Returning to the discussion on Item 21, Mr. Kinnison asked staff to delineate the differences
between the city's bid specifications and those in the HGAC contract. Mr. Kaplan replied that they
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting

had to do with the wind requirements, warranty, 24-hour warranty service, and assembly. Mr. Phelps
said Otto has indicated to staff that it will honor the city's requirements under the HGAC contract,
which they are allowed to do. Mr. Massey said they discussed that issue with Otto but staff was
concerned that those requirements would end up being a "rider" on another company's contract. Mr.
Phelps also said that during the pre-bid conference, the emphasis was on the 90-gallon containers
rather than on both the 90-gallon and 60-gallon ones. He added that containers made by injection-
molding are of better quality than those manufactured in other ways.
Responding to Mr. Chesney, Mr. Massey said that while staff acknowledges that the city
would receive the same product under the HGAC contract, the problem is that the city followed a
procurement process and in the end is recommending awarding the contract to Schaefer. He
reiterated that HGAC's specifications are different from the city's bid specifications, which he
explained. In response to another question from Mr. Chesney, Mr. Bray said that the only way the
city could take advantage of the HGAC bid was if it rejected all the bids received during the
procurement process.
Mayor Neal referred to the letter from Gershman, Brickner and Bratton Inc. (GBB), the city's
consultants for solid waste issues. He said according to Mr. Phelps, the carts made by Otto and
Shaefer are substantially the same. However, he said staff is recommending awarding the bid to
Schaefer not only because they meet the minimum bid requirements for the carts themselves but also
because of other issues, such as the warranty, service, and wind resistance.
Mr. Michael Knaub, Vice President of Sales for Schaefer Systems International, said the
companies went through two pre-bid conferences and Schaefer based its bid on the specifications
as written. He said they have not gone back to the city with what they consider to be bid
enhancements. He said Schaefer's carts have always been successful in wind tests, adding that
overturned carts cause a safety hazard. He emphasized that the HGAC contract is only for two years
while their bid is for three years with two one-year options to renew.
Mr. Knaub said there is a difference between the containers made by Otto and Schaefer,
which is the only company to have ISO9001 certification on their products, which he explained. He
noted that Schaefer's carts performed well during the city's pilot program. He said they have been
talking with city staff about automated garbage pick up since 1991.
Mr. Kelly asked several questions of Mr. Garcia, who said the issue is that a company had
a price under the HGAC contract but opted to bid a higher price under the city's bid process. He said
when that company was unsuccessful at the higher price, they then wanted to refer back to the lower
HGAC price. He said staff's recommendation meets the specifications and will allow the city to
implement the automated collection program. However, if the Council is unconvinced, he would not
recommend going to another bidder but rather that they scrap the whole process. He added that every
time a major contract is bid, most of the bidders will be dissatisfied with the outcome. He said as
long as people feel they can undermine the integrity of the bid process, a competitive low bid will
not be obtained.
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting

City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for their votes as follows:
21. M2001-255
Motion approving a supply agreement with Schaefer Systems International, Charlotte, North
Carolina, for approximately 71,000 curbside collection containers in accordance with Bid
Invitation No. BI-0156-01, based on low bid meeting specifications for an estimated three-
year expenditure of $2,908,314. The term of the agreement will be for three years with an
option to extend for up to two additional twelve-month periods subject to the approval of the
City Manager or his designee. Funds have been budgeted by the Solid Waste Department
in FY 2000-2001 and requested for FY 2001-2002.
The foregoing motion passed by the following vote: Neal, Chesney, Colmenero, Garrett,
Kelly, Kinnison, Longoria, Noyola, and Scott voting "Aye."
Mayor Neal said he feels the integrity of the bid process is important and he thanked staffand
the bidders for their efforts.
Mayor Neal opened discussion on Items 22 and 23 regarding the Frost Bank building lease
and space remodeling.
Mr. Jorge Cruz-Aedo, Director of Financial Services, said that Items 22.a.-c. will allow the
city to proceed with the financing of the improvements to the Frost Bank building. He said the first
item will allow the city to have the funding in place to do the financing; the second item is the
reappropriation of the existing financing that was provided as part of the build-out for the original
lease; and the third item is the appropriation of the new loan.
Responding to Council Member Scott, Mr. Cruz-Aedo said Item 23 pertains to the
construction contract for the remodeling of the building itself. City Manager Garcia said staffbid this
project previously but there were some questions about the bid process and some of the responses;
consequently, staff rejected all the bids and rebid the project. Mr. Angel Escobar, Director of
Engineering Services, explained that the bids came in over the engineer's estimate so staffchanged
some of the specifications (such as the carpet requirements) to bring down the cost. He said the city
received a grant to help purchase roll-down shutters to protect the building during a storm since it
will house the city's Emergency Operations Center (EOC).
Mr. Garcia said although they did not meet their goal of having the building ready for this
hurricane season, staff still wants to proceed as expeditiously as possible. Mr. Escobar said the
construction contract is 120 days and it should be completed prior to that. Mr. Garcia said that due
to the high cost of some aspects of the project, such as completely outfitting the EOC, this will be
a multi-year project. He said at this time they are addressing the basic shell and infrastructure
portions of the building, which he explained.

Council Member Kinnison asked about the time line for the "one-stop" development center
which will be housed on the first floor of the Frost Bank building. Mr. Garcia said staffhas already
begun the process of restructuring several city departments to consolidate the functions that will be
included in the one-stop cemer. He said staff will brief the Council on that issue at another time.
Responding to another question from Mr. Kinnison, Mr. Noe said staff feels comfortable with the
amount of funding available, and Mr. Cruz-Aedo noted that it is included in the proposed budget.
There were no commems from the audience on Items 22 or 23. City Secretary Chapa polled
the Council for their votes as follows:

Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
July 10, 2001

Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 28, water supply update. Using a computer
presentation, Mr. Ed Garafia described the city's reservoir system, which consists of the Choke
Canyon Reservoir and Lake Corpus Christi. The three rivers feeding those reservoirs are the Nueces,
Frio and Atascosa rivers. He noted that the 101-mile Mary Rhodes Pipeline was completed in 1998
and the Garwood Irrigation Company water rights purchase was finalized the following year. He said
that while the City of Corpus Christi is the largest user of water in the system, several other
communities also rely on it for their water needs.
Mr. Garafia discussed the projected reservoir levels if conditions remain the same for the next
several months. He said the combined reservoir system is estimated to reach 30% between July and
August 2001 and 20% between June and July 2002. He noted that the 30% reservoir level now has
a different meaning due to the additional water provided by the Mary Rhodes Pipeline but it still
signifies an important point for consideration of drought management issues. He also quickly
reviewed the conditions of the Drought Management Plan.
Mr. Garafia said the city's contract with the Lavaca-Navidad River Authority (LNRA)
provides for 41,840 acre-feet of water per year from Lake Texana through the Mary Rhodes Pipeline.
In addition, there is a provision for "interruptible" water which is available to Corpus Christi under
certain conditions. Those conditions include when LNRA's reservoir is full, they have met all their
bay and estuary requirements, and they are spilling water. He said currently the city has the ability
to obtain 4,500 acre-feet of interruptible water at $37.50/af, and the LNRA is considering
modifications to their operations to make an additional 7,500 acre-feet of interruptible water
available after permitting requirements are met.
Mr. Massey said the raw water cost for the interruptible water would be about one-half cent
per 1,000 gallons. Ifa customer uses 10,000 gallons per month, it would cost 5 cents per month. Mr.
Garafia emphasized that the city has the infrastructure in place to accommodate the extra water.
Mayor Neal noted that two of the Council's new priority issues are desalination and the Garwood
water, and he suggested that staff bring back time lines to discuss those issues. In response to Mr.
Kinnison, Mr. Garafia said the regional water plan will also be brought back soon. The Mayor said
the Regional Water Planning Group also needs to be briefed on these issues.
In his report, Mayor Neal said city staff provided the Council with action plans on their
priority issues and he asked staff to prepare an executive summary with accompanying time tables.
He also encouraged continued improved relations with the Nueces County Commissioners Court
over the next week as they strive to reach some solutions so the city can move forward on its
proposed budget. He then called for Council reports.
Mr. Chesney said he has been working on a plan with staff to develop support for city parks
which he will bring to the Council for their information. He also asked if there was interest in
changing the Council's meeting time to earlier in the day. The Mayor said they have discussed that
issue previously and they can do so again.

Mr. Garrett expressed concern about a plan to convert the Boys and Girls Club at La Armada
into office space for the Housing Authority. He said that is a very useful program there and he does
not want to see it closed. Mayor Neal said the executive director and some board members of the
Boys and Girls Club brought their own concerns about that issue to him. He said he contacted the
Housing Authority Commissioners, who said they thoroughly investigated the proposal and voted
unanimously to support it because the numbers of young people using the facility had declined. He
said the commissioners felt the proposal was in the long-term best interests of the Housing
Authority.
Mr. Longoria said he has several newspaper articles describing the history of the Boys and
Girls Clubs as well as specific information about the club's location at La Armada. He said the
reason the numbers have declined is because the Housing Authority has continued to encroach on
the space previously available for youth. He added that most of the children in Corpus Christi's
public housing projects live at La Armada. He said he agrees with Mr. Garrett's objection to the
Housing Authority's proposal. Mr. Colmenero said the city has supported the Boys and Girls Club
through CDGB funds, and he questioned if the Housing Authority's plans for educational programs
would be a duplication of services. Mr. Noyola requested additional information on this issue.
Mr. Longoria said the Municipal Court staff is planning a luncheon for school
superintendents, board chairs and possibly truancy officers in August in order to introduce the new
juvenile court program that is being implemented. He said the Council will be invited as well. He
said they are also collecting applications for the judge's position for that court. The members of the
Council's Municipal Court Committee are Mr. Garrett, Mr. Kelly, Mr. Scott and Mr. Longoria as
the chairman. In response to Mr. Chesney and Mr. Kinnison, he described the selection process and
time line for the judge's position.
There being no further business to come before the Council, Mayor Neal adjourned the
Council meeting at 8:20 p.m. on July 10, 2001.

PROJECT BACKGROUND: Sanitary sewer overflows are caused by excessive infiltration
of groundwater and inflows of surface water (I/I) into the collection system during rainfall
events. Failure to clean wastewater lines contributes to an increased risk and frequency
of sanitary sewer overflows. Conditions that contribute to the high I/I include:
1. Diminished line capacity due to grease/trash buildup;
2. Tree root infestation;
3. Clogged lines;
EXHIBIT "A"
Page 1 of 2
4. Broken wastewater lines; and
5. Leaking/damaged manholes.
The areas where the greatest problems exist are in some of the older sections of the City
including portions of the Allison, Broadway, Oso and Greenwood wastewater collection
basins. This project will quantify the existing conditions and propose corrective measures
to decrease I & I and increase life expectancy of the sewer trunk mains.
This multi-year project to minimize sewer overflows has made significant improvements in
the city-wide I & I rehabilitation program in the past few years. Pursuant to the original
contract studies, the system has benefited from 45,000 linear feet of gravity sewer cleaning
of mains on a city-wide prioritized basis.
As part of the original contract, a comprehensive field investigation study using flow
monitoring devices at six chronic overflow locations was completed. Additionally, smoke
testing of 10,550 linear feet of lines in the Clarkwood area, rehabilitation of 5,700 linear feet
of sewer mains as well as renovation of 33 manholes in the Carolyn Heights and
Sunnybrook/Mansheim Collection System were completed.
Under the original contract, data collected resulted in an implementation plan that
prioritized needed work in the Broadway basin service area. This project includes
development of rehabilitation bid documents for the Priority One line and manhole work,
as well as half of the Pdority Two items in the Broadway basin service area. Additionally
this project includes obtaining and reviewing tapes of additional lines to assess condition,
city-wide, as a programmed part of the continuing sewer collection system improvements.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This amendment proposes to provide:
· design services for replacement and/or rehabilitation of lines and manholes in the
Broadway basin service area;
· review cleaning tapes from the FY 1999-00 15" and larger cleaning project and prepare
a recommendation for rehabilitation; and
· prepare plans and specifications for $100,000 worth of lines to be cleaned which will
be identified by the Wastewater Department.
CONTRACT SUMMARY/FEE: A contract summary and fee is attached as Exhibit "B".
FINAL PRODUCT:
· Plans and specifications necessary to award various construction contracts to help
restore the integrity of the Broadway basin sewer collection mains and other various
lines as identified by City Staff.
· A recommendation for rehabilitation and a preliminary cost estimate for recommended
repairs of lines cleaned and inspected under Section B
AIlison/Broadway/Greenwood/Oso Basins 15" Diameter and Larger Sewer Lines
Cleaning, leading to stage two design services; and
· Plans and specification for $100,000 worth of lines to be cleaned which will be identified
by the Wastewater Department.

FUTURE COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of one (1) required construction contract for the
remaining Senior Center and Recreation Center under contract by this consultant.
PROJECT BACKGROUND: On Tuesday, November 7, 2000, the City of Corpus Christi
held an election to consider a number of ballot prepositions to fund major capital
improvements for the community, Bond Issue 2000. The November 7, 2000 election was
held jointly with Nueces County and coincided with the Presidential Election.
'The Bond Issue 2000 package includes $30.8 million in projects to be funded from ad
valorem property taxes (a General Obligation Bond Issue) in Public Health and Safety,
Parks and Recreation/Museum, and Street Improvement projects. The proposed projects
target the City's most immediate needs to improve existing physical facilities, provide for
growth, and protect the City's investment in its infrastructure.
Proposition No. 3 Park/Recreation and Museum Improvements includes improvements to
renovate four senior and six recreation centers city-wide. This project proposes to address
ADA compliance, electrical upgrades, HVAC renovations and minor structural repairs.
Each one of the facilities will have a specific renovation need due to the vaded ages of the
facilities. The recreation centers are generally much older than the senior centers and are
in greater need for renovation.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project consists of ADA upgrades and renovations
including:
· minor demolition;
· asphalt paving and striping;
· concrete sidewalks;
· finish carpentry and millwork cabinet replacement;
· modified built-up roofing (Oso Recreation Center);
· door hardware replacement;
· painting; toilet accessories and compartments;
· mechanical upgrades;
· plumbing; and
· electrical upgrades.
BID INFORMATION: The project consists solely ora base bid. The city received proposals
from six (6) bidders on June 29, 2001. (See Exhibit "C") The bids ranged from $197,665
to $258,975. One bidder, Harbor Construction, was deemed non-responsive because of
an incomplete bid bond. However, this did not affect the ranking of Iow bid. Bay Area
Contracting of Corpus Christi, Texas is the lowest responsive bidder.
The Engineer's estimated construction cost for the project is $195,155. The City's
consultant, Chuck Anastos Associates, Inc. and City staff recommend that based on Iow

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT:

Crosstown Expressway / So. Padre Island Drive Expressway
Interchange Illumination
AGENDA ITEM:
Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to increase the advanced funding
agreement in the amount of $76,273.70 with the Texas Department of Transportation for
illumination improvements associated with the Crosstown Expressway / So. Padre Island
Drive Expressway Interchange project.
ISSUE: An audit by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) revealed the City
to be under-escrowed for the subject project in which it is participating with the TxDOT for
continuous expressway lighting and high-mast illumination. Additional funds are required
by TxDOT subsequent to TxDOT's awarding a construction contract that exceeds the pre-
construction estimate. The City and TxDOT share 50-% / 50-% in all costs to construct
and maintain the expressway lighting systems in the city.
FUNDING: Funding is recommended from the 2000 Bond Program allocation for City
Participation in Future TxDOT Projects (Project #39).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the motion as presented.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Additional Background Information
Prior Council Action:
March 20, 2001 - Approval of Advance Funding Agreement with TxDOT authorizing the
deposit of $500,301.85 as the City's 50% share for the construction of continuous
expressway and high mast illumination improvements at the Crosstown Expressway / So.
Padre Island Drive Expressway Interchange Project and its approaches (M2001-111).
Proiect Backqround: Additional escrow funds are required to be paid to TxDOT for the
additional costs for TxDOT's construction of continuous expressway and high-mast
illumination associated with TxDOT's reconstruction of the Crosstown Expressway / So.
Padre Island Drive Expressway Interchange. The additional funds are necessary as a
result of the deficit in the construction letting for this project. When TxDOT first notified the
City of its escrow deficit in November, 2000, the escrow deficit was in the amount of
$500,301.85. Actual bids received in May, 2001 resulted in higher costs, primarily for
electrical conductors, underground conduit and ground junction boxes for this project.
Recommended Funding Source
Funding for the initial $500,301.85 escrowed with TxDOT in March, 2001 came from the
City's 2000 Bond Program allocation for Citywide Street Lighting Improvements (Project
#51). Staff is recommending the additional $76,273.70 amount requested by TxDOT to
come out of the 2000 Bond Program allocation for City Participation in Future TxDOT
Projects (Project #39) so as not to deplete the remaining funding for Citywide street
lighting improvements. Remaining funding in this latter project allocation is approximately
$134,873 for lighting improvements citywide.

it is determined that the fundin~ provided by the Outside Entity will be insufficient to cover the
State's cost for performance .... the Outside Entity will pay to the State the additional funds
necessary to cover the anticipated additional cost .... The Outside Entity shall pay the funds to
the State within 30 days of the written notification, unless otherwise a~reed to by all parties to
this a~reement.
Therefore the Department is requesting that a warrant be made payable to the Texas
Department of Transportation in the amount of seventy-six thousand two hundred seventy-three
dollars and seventy cents ($ 76,273.70). Please forward warrant to me at the above address.
A written reply regarding this matter is requested no later than July 11, 2001. Your
immediate attention to this matter would be appreciated. If you have any questions, feel free to

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Stabil Drill Specialties has requested a Use Privilege Agreement (UPA) from the City. They
wish to construct and maintain a 40-foot long culvert and caliche surfaced driveway over
an existing 50-foot wide City drainage right-of-way (ROW) located at 426 So. Navigation
Boulevard.
Stabil Drill Specialties recently purchased property at 426 S. Navigation Boulevard and has
established an oilfleld equipment fabricating operation. The property is bisected by a small
ditch (approx. 8-foot topwidth and 3-foot depth) within a 50-foot wide City drainage right-of-
way. The segment of property on the north side of the drainageway is occupied by the
company's building where the fabrication is accomplished. The segment on the south side
of the drainageway is a storage area for raw materials (mostly metals) and components
used for the fabrication of equipment.
When the owner of Stabil Drill Specialties bought the property, he was not aware of the
restrictions regarding the use of public right-of-way for private purposes. He was informed
of the requirements during the process of obtaining building permits. His operational plan
calls for establishing direct access, mostly forklift hauling operations, between the building
and the storage yard. He is currently hauling the materials by exiting from the yard onto
Navigation Boulevard and then into the building area, an unsafe and inefficient process.
The owner has therefore requested for the City's approval to construct the crossing.
Stabil Drill Specialties will own the drainage structure and cross-over driveway and all
associated improvements. The owner will be held solely responsible for all maintenance
and removal of the private infrastructure. An Engineering Permit will be required for any
future maintenance and removal of the drainage culvert and driveway within the City
drainage right-of-way.
All City and private franchised utilities were contacted regarding this UPA. None had any
objections, provided the applicant meets the specified conditions set out in the UPA.
A one-time fee of $1000 is being recommended for the UPA. Owner has been advised
and concurs with all the conditions of the Use Privilege Agreement.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 10, 2001
SUBJECT: Manshiem Area Rolled Curb and Gutter Improvements (Project No. 2129)
AGENDA ITEM: Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a
consultant contract with Smith, Russo and Mercer Consulting Engineers for a total fee not
to exceed $21,975 for the Manshiem Area Rolled Curb and Gutter Improvements.
ISSUE: The curbs and gutters located in the Manshiem-Sunnybrook-McArdle area have
Iow slopes in which storm water ponds. The ponding water soaks into the curb cracks into
the gutter subgrade causing swelling, which in turn moves the curb and gutter further out of
grade.
FUNDING: Funding is available from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Program FY 2000-2001.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the motion as presented.

FUTURE COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of a construction contract to complete the project
as required.
PROJECT BACKGROUND: The proposed project area encompasses Manshiem,
Sunnybrook, and McArdle; and was constructed many years ago. Previous investigation
reports indicate that the curb and gutters were constructed directly on clay soil. The gutter
grades are well below current minimum standards. The Iow slopes allow storm water to
pond which soaks into the curb cracks into the gutter subgrade causing swelling. The
swelling moves the curb and gutter further out of grade causing additional ponding of storm
water.
The proposed project will investigate curb and gutter from Sunnybrook to McArdle Road on
Archer, Blundell, Cheryl, Dodd, Easter, Franklin, and Gabriel. In addition, Manshiem from
Ayers Street to Gabriel will be investigated to determine possible reconstruction methods.
A preliminary drainage study of the area will also be performed to develop possible
drainage alternatives.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed project involves preliminary design of curb and
gutter improvements with the designated area between Sunnybrook and McArdle Road
and consists of the following streets:

CONTRACT SUMMARY
Manshiem Area Rolled Curb and Gutter Improvements
Project No. 2129
1. SCOPE OF PROJECT
The proposed project area was constructed many years ago. Previous investigation
reports indicate that the curb and gutters were constructed directly on clay soil. (no base).
The gutter grades are typically well below current minimum standards. The Iow slopes
allow storm water to pond which soakes into the curb cracks into the gutter subgrade
causing swelling. The swelling moves the curb and gutter further out of grade causing
more problems.
The project would investigate curb and gutter from Sunnybrook to McArdle Road on
Archer, Blundell, Cheryl, Dodd, Easter, Franklin, and Gabriel. in addition, Manshiem from
Ayers Street to Gabriel would be investigated to determine possible reconstruction
methods. A preliminary drainage study of the area will also be performed to develop
possible drainage alternatives.

BACKGROUNDINFORMATION
SUBJECT: Concrete Channel Rehabilitation - Emory Ditch (Project No. 2079)
PRIOR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION:
1. July 1, 1999 - Authorization to proceed with emergency repairs to the Emory Drive
Bridge.
2. October 18, 2000 - Distribution of Request For Qualifications (RFQ) No. 2000-08
(Public Health and Safety, Parks and Recreation, Street Improvement Projects) to
73 local architectural and engineering firms.
3. November 10, 2000- Addendum No. 1 to the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No.
2000-08 (Public Health and Safety, Parks and Recreation, Street Improvement
Projects) to 73 local architectural and engineering firms.
4. January 10, 2001 - Addendum No. 2 to the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No.

FUTURE COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of a construction contract to complete the project
as required.
PROJECT BACKGROUND: Emory Drive is located near Hearn Road in northwest Corpus
Christ just south of the O. N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant. The Emory Ditch from
Emory Drive to the T&M Railroad Ditch has become severely eroded. Erosion along the
ditch has threatened to de-stabilize AEPCPL power poles and the rip-rap at T&M Railroad
Ditch. Rehabilitation is required to stabilize the earthen ditch and to prevent future erosion.
In July 1999 emergency repairs to the bridge located on Emory Drive were authorized to
perform permanent repairs. Erosion under a minor concrete box bridge threatened to de-
stabilize the bridge. The erosion consisted of a 7' to 8' hole extending approximately 10'
under the box bridge. The repairs consisted of installation of steel sheet piling (15' to 20')
length in front of the drainage boxes. The hole was filled with sand and covered with
concrete to prevent future erosion.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed project consists of improvements to stabilize the
Emory Ditch from Emory Drive to the T&M Railroad Ditch.
CONTRACT SUMMARY/FEE: A contract summary and fee is attached as Exhibit "B".
FINAL PRODUCT: The final product will consist of a design, bid, and construction phase
services to rehabilitate the Concrete Channel - Emory Ditch.

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
PURPOSE OFABANDONMENTAND BACKGROUND:
On behalf of B. Wiley Mayden Company, Mr. B. Wiley Mayden, Owner is requesting the
abandonment and vacation of a 2,256.24 - square foot portion of a 50 - foot cul-de-sac
utility easement out of Padre Island-Corpus Christi Mariner's Cay, Lot 4, Block 502. The
easement was acquired by the Nueces County Commissioners Court as part of a street
closure request of Elbow Cay in October 10, 1972 and recorded in Volume 18 Pages 187
and 188 Nueces County Deed of Records. The easement to be abandoned and vacated
is located in Zone B-2A within the city limits of Corpus Christi. See Exhibit "C", Location
Map.
Mr. Mayden owns Padre Island-Corpus Christi Mainer's Cay, Lot 4, Block 502, which
embraces the portion of utility easement proposed for abandonment and vacation. Mr.
Mayden must close the utility easement in Lot 4 to accommodate the construction of future
townhouses. Mr. Mayden is proposing to dedicate a 15-foot utility easement (5,000-
square foot) within Padre Island-Corpus Christi Mariner's Cay to help offset the fair market
value.
All public and franchised utilities were contacted. No objections were received from the
public and franchised utilities regarding the proposed action.
Staff recommends that payment of the fair market value be waived due to the dedication
of future easements greater than what is being closed.

from the State of Texas, Criminal Justice Division for funding available under the Violence
Against Women Act (VAWA) Fund and to execute all related documents.
B. Ordinance appropriating $54,927 fi'om the State of Texas, Criminal Justice Division in the No.
1050 Federal/State Grants Fund for funding available under the Violence Against Women Act
(VAWA) Fund; transferring $5,888 from the No. 6010 Law Enforcement Trust Fund and

ISSUE:. The City has been awarded second year funding from the State of Texas, Criminal Justice
Division, under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) to continue the project with the primary
mission of reducing and preventing violence against women.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The grant continues support for the Family Violence Unit that
utilizes officers and volunteers to contact every family violence victim when a written report is made
by a field officer or from a walk-in to the unit at the Police Department. The grant funds one victim
case manager to contact victims who often fear retaliation and violence when the offender is released
following arrest; contact with an advocate (case manager) can provide information concerning
alternatives, available services, and protective orders to avoid continued violence. The case manager
serves to establish and encourage a working relationship between social agencies and the Police
Department and provides educational opportunities to the community through speaking engagements,
public service announcements, distribution of literature, etc. The long term goal of the grant is to
provide victims of domestic violence and other serious crimes with crisis intervention, follow up
assistance, encourage cooperation with law enforcement, facilitate utilization of available resources,
and assist with immediate and long-term safety needs.
The grant provides salary and benefits for a Victim Case Manager, equipment, supplies, training, and
mileage.
FUNDING: The State provides $54,927 and the City $18,309, a 25% required grant match that may
be in-kind or cash contribution. We are utilizing the volunteer hours from other agencies Child
Protective Services, Police volunteers, etc. to provide $12,421 toward the match. The law
enforcement trust fund is providing $5,888 supplies and miscellaneous equipment. The funding is not
on a declining percentage or ending funding cycle with the State approving funding for the first three
years.

BACKGROUNDINFORMATION
Subject: Corpus Christi Ozone Near Non-Attainment Area Research Study
Project Description: The TNRCC is providing grant funding to Texas cities nearing non-attainment of the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for ozone. The City is acting as the prime contractor
with TNRCC and subcontracting the research portion of the work to Texas A&M University-Kingsville
(TAMU-K).
TAMU-K has a contract with the City of Corpus Christi for the air quality research work, which is a
continuing activity. The research includes monitoring for ozone, ozone precursors and particulate matter;
conducting an emissions inventory of ozone precursors; and modeling of ozone formation in the region.
Amendment 3 increases the funding and extends the period of performance.
Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) has a contract with the City for continuation of a
program in pollution prevention for small business and public education for air quality in Nueces and San
Patricio Counties. This contract is also funded through the TNRCC grant funding, and is a continuation of
currently ongoing projects.
$21,000 of the TNRCC grant funds will be retained by the City of Corpus Christi for reimbursement of
expenses incurred administering the contracts and providing management oversight of the project work.
The TNRCC is funding these programs in Corpus Christi and other Texas cities close to exceeding the
ozone standard with Appropriation Rider 13 to the FY 2000/2001 TNRCC Budget. Additional funding is
being offered following the State Comptroller's audit of the funding source and certifying the availability of
the additional funds. A work plan specifying the use of the additional funding has been reviewed and
approved by the TNRCC.
The region is very close to violating the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone and
must comply with new standards for fine particulates. The research work currently underway and funded
through these contracts will identify emissions sources and the atmospheric chemistry leading to ozone
formation in the area. Modeling will be used to identify reduction strategies appropriate for the area based
on good science. The program began in F/Y 1996-1997 under a similar Appropriations Rider (Rider 26)
and execution of a Flexible Attainment Region Agreement between the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), TNRCC, and the City. The program continued through 1998/1999 with Appropriations
Rider 17 funding. The funding for FY 2000/2001 is from TNRCC's Appropriations Rider 13.
Should the area be designated as non-attainment, the sanctions imposed by EPA will be very detrimental
to future area economic development. It would also result in loss of federal highway funds until EPA
approves prescribed planning for regaining attainment status.
Prior Council Action:
Similar project funding grants from TNRCC have been used in prior years to carry out the necessary
research and outreach activities, which have been instrumental in maintaining our attainment status to
date. Previous Council Action is summarized in Attachment 4. Council authorized execution of TNRCC
Contract No. 582-0-31274 for $495,075 to perform specified project work detailed in work plans approved
by TNRCC with the subject funds.
Future Council Action: Approval of contracts for $15,000 or more for Appropriations Rider Funds
appropriated for the near non-attainment areas' use by the 2001 Texas State Legislature.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 12, 2001
SUBJECT: Public Health Services
AGENDA ITEM:
A. Motion authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute Attachment No. 01 to Contract
No. 7460005741-2003 with the Texas Department of Health in the amount of $150,000 for
surveillance, abatement and education of vector-borne diseases in Corpus Christi.
B. An ordinance appropriating a grant from the Texas Department of Health in the amount of
$150,000.00 for surveillance, abatement and education of vector-borne diseases in Corpus Christi;
adding $150,000.00 to the No. 1050 federal/state grant fund - Health Department; adding a full-time
Epidemiologist position (Grade 32); and declaring an emergency.
ISSUE:
The Health Department was awarded a two-year grant totaling $150,000 through the
Innovation Grants Program sponsored by the Texas Department of Health and funded by
tobacco settlement monies. The purpose of the grant is the establishment of a vector
surveillance and abatement program to reduce the incidence and risk of mosquito-borne
disease. The activities that will be conducted during the two-year period include:
1. Surveillance Program - includes inventory of larval habitat of 3 vector species, trapping
adult mosquitoes of these species to determine densities and viral testing, and data analysis
to estimate costs of control operations.
2. Vector Abatement Program - source reduction through trash removal including removal of
water filled containers through a cleanup campaign in coordination with the City's
scheduled events and evaluation of control agents to be used in environmentally sensitive
habitats.
3. Public Health Education Program - through power point presentations, creation of a web-
site, and displays to be used at health fairs and special events. A curriculum will be
developed for 3 elementary school grades for approval by CCISD. Presentations would
also be made to one elementary school at the first, third, and fifth grade levels based on the
approved curriculum.
The implementation of these activities will greatly enhance the effectiveness of the Vector
Control Division in providing more proactive services to Corpus Christi residents.
The attachment consists of $150,000.00 in financial assistance covering personnel, fringe
benefits, laboratory equipment, supplies and other services (Texas A&M Corpus Christi
students to work on development of educational curriculum, web-site construction and
surveillance & abatement projects). The Epidemiologist will review possible human cases of
vector-borne diseases and oversee all facets of the grant as project manager. This oversight
will help ensure statistical reliability in the survey designs and data collection.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the contract attachment, appropriation of
funds, and creation of an Epidemiologist position to manage the grant activities.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the contract attachment be approved,
funding appropriated, and an Epidemiologist position be created to enhance the Vector Control
Division services.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
AGENDA ITEM: ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AND ALLOWING UNDER THE ACT
GOVERNING THE TEXAS MUNICIPAL RETIREMENT SYSTEM, THE CITY OF
CORPUS CHRISTI TO MAKE CURRENT SERVICE AND PRIOR SERVICE
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CITY'S ACCOUNT IN THE MUNICIPAL
ACCUMULATION FUND OF THE TEXAS MUNICIPAL RETIREMENT SYSTEM AT
THE ACTUARIALLY DETERMINED RATE OF TOTAL EMPLOYEE
COMPENSATION; ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE FOR THE ORDINANCE;
AND PROVIDING FOR SEVERANCE.
ISSUE: Under the Texas Municipal Retirement System Act (TMRS) that governs
TMRS, the City's contribution rate is determined annually by the actuary. The City's
current contribution rate for calendar year 2001 is 10.92 % [6.98 % normal cost;
3.73% prior service; and 0.21% retiree annuity adjustments to 50% of the change in
the Consumer Price Index (CPI) over a designated twelve-month period). Except for
automatic inclusion by TMRS of 5-year vesting recently approved by the Texas
Legislature, the City's contribution rate effective January 1, 2002, is for the same
level of benefits as in 2001. The 2002 rate is 11.51% amortized over a 25-year
period (7.13% normal cost that includes 0.04% for 5-year vesting; 4.24% prior
service cost that includes 0.01% for 5-year vesting, and 0.14% for 50% of the
change in the Consumer Price Index over a designated twelve-month period). All
participating TMRS cities will be automatically covered by the 5-year vesting
provision unless they opt to remain at 10-year vesting by passing an Ordinance
before December 31,2001 to opt out of the new provision. Five-year vesting brings
TMRS in line with other public retirement systems in Texas, as well as public plans
in other states.
Adoption of 100% updated service credit and 50 % of the change in Consumer Price
Index for retiree annuities are two TMRS provisions that must be adopted
concurrently as required by the TMRS Act. In addition, these provisions must be
adopted by the City to be in compliance with the Police Collective Bargaining
Agreement that requires annual annuity adjustments for retirees equal to 50% of the
change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) over a designated twelve-month period.
The resulting City contribution rate, including these two provisions and 5-year
vesting, will be 11.51% effective January 1 2002, (7.13% normal cost that includes
0.04% for 5-year vesting; 4.24% prior service cost that included 0.01% for 5-year
vesting, and 0.14% for 50% of the change in the Consumer Price Index over a
designated twelve-month period).
Page I of 6
In addition, the City's Contribution Rate will change again on August 1, 2002, to
implement the agreement between the City of Corpus Christi and the Police
collective bargaining unit that was approved by the City Council. The agreement
was to adopt the TMRS 20-year service retirement eligibility provision effective
August 1, 2002. This provision enables TMRS contributing members to receive a
service retirement annuity after 20 years of credited service in the System with one
or more municipalities that have adopted a like provision under the TMRS Act. Had
this provision been adopted in 2001, the actuarially determined contribution rate cost
would have been . 16%. The anticipated contribution rate cost for adoption of this
provision in 2002 is anticipated to be a comparable percentage. This Ordinance will
be brought to Council prior to August 1, 2002.
The City's actuarially determined contribution rate effective January 1, 2002, for
100% updated service credit and 50% of the change in the Consumer Price Index is
11.51%, which is over the statutory maximum contribution rate limit under the
TMRS Act of 11.50% by 0.01%. Whenever the combined normal cost and prior
service contribution rates on January 1, 2002, exceed the City's statutory maximum
contribution rate limit, either the City must elect by ordinance to pay the actuarially
calculated contribution rate or the prior service portion of the rate will be reduced by
the actuary to equal the statutory maximum. If this occurs, the City will not be fully
funding the cost of the plan benefits adopted and this shortfall in funding, unless
offset by actuarial gains in the City's plan, must be made up in future years. By
adopting an ordinance to remove the statutory maximum contribution rate limit, that
has been allowed by the TMRS Act since 1997, the City is agreeing to fully fund the
cost of the pension benefits included in the City's plan, such as 100% Updated
Service Credits and 50% of the change in CPI for a designated 12-month period,
effective January 1, 2002, and each subsequent January thereafter, and for any
additional plan improvements adopted by Ordinance in the future, such as the 20-
year service retirement eligibility criteria provision that must be adopted prior to
August 1, 2002.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION: Council approval of this Ordinance is required

ATTACHMENT I
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Under the Texas Municipal Retirement System Act (TMRS) that governs TMRS, the City's
Contribution Rate is annually actuarially determined. The Contribution Rate is composed
of three components:
Normal Cost (the portion of the City's contribution rate that funds the adopted
matching ratio)
The Normal Cost Portion of the City's Contribution Rate is impacted by changes in
the number of members, amount of compensation, increased age of contributing
members, phase in of cost assumptions, cost due to 5-year vesting, and other
actuarial factors.
Prior Service (the portion of the rate for Prior Updated Service Credits; and
Annuity Increases)
The Prior Service Portion of the City's Contribution Rate is impacted by changes in
payroll experience and historical trends; actuarial gains or losses (the difference
between actual events compared to actuarial assumptions); phase-in of increases
due to changes of actuarial assumption; 5-year vesting cost; and other actuarial
factors.
Retiree Annuity Adjustments (the portion based on a specific percentage of the
increase in the Consumer Price Index over a designated 12 month period)
Since 1986 the City had designated 40% of the increase in the Consumer Price
Index for retiree annuity adjustments. Beginning in 2001, the State Legislature
revised the percentage options available to cities from between 30% and 70% in
increments of 10%, to a choice of 30%, 50%, or 70%. Effective January 1, 2001,
the adjustment was increased by Ordinance from 40% to 50% of the increase in
the Consumer Price Index. The current collective bargaining agreement for Police
requires a 50% adjustment.
Page 4 of 6
Updated Service Credit: Undated Service Credit uses a member's average monthly
salary over a recent three-year period immediately prior to the study year, and
recalculates the member's retirement credit as if the member had always earned that
salary and made deposits, matched by the City, on the basis of that average monthly
salary.
DESCRZPTZON OF TMRS RETZREHENT PLAN:
Employees (excluding Firefighters) are covered by TIvlRS for pension benefits. The City's
program currently includes the following provisions:
An employee deposit rate of five per cent
Actuarially determined City contribution
From 10-year vesting to 5-year vesting (unless the City chooses to remain with 10-
year vesting by Ordinance passed prior to December 31, 2001)
Survivor benefits for vested employees
Occupational disability retirement options
Military buy-back for vested employees
100% updated service credits
Increases adjusted to 50% of the change in the Consumer Price Index for retirees

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
PURPOSE OF CLOSURE AND BACKGROUND:
Bass & Welsh Engineering on behalf of Dr. & Mrs. Robert W. Madry, Jr. and Ms. Ann C.
Yeager, is requesting the City to vacate and abandon a 2,250-square foot portion of Purl
Place north of the Robert Street right-of-way.
On July, 1996, Ms. Ann Yeager and Ms. Lillian Racusin then the abutting property owners
had requested the same street closure of Purl Place but later decided to postpone their
request to a later date. On August 26, 1996, the Transportation Advisory Committee had
recommended approval of this closure subject to the removal of the existing curb and
gutter street pavement improvements within the proposed closure area at the applicants'
expense. An alternate to the requirement for pavement removal is the erection of a
permanent barricade, such as fencing along the south line of the proposed closure. The
applicants had agreed to construct a fence at their expense.
All public and franchised utilities were contacted regarding this closure request, and no
objections were received.
Traffic Engineering however has stated that Robert Street is likely to be improved and
widened at some time in the future as per the project identified in the Street Capital
Improvement Planning Guide. So therefore, is asking that the existing 11.5-foot sidewalk
easement be maintained, as well as an additional 3.5-foot on the west side of the sidewalk
easement. Additional concerns are:
A proper cul-de-sac or tee turn-around be constructed at the end of the public
street.
That the abandoned and vacated street right-of-way would need to be removed (all
curb and gutter and sidewalk) and not made to appear simply as a blocked street..
That the existing street light at the intersection of Robert Street and Purl Place be
relocated to the end of the new cul-de-sac or tee turn-around.
Southwestern Bell has stated that they have joint used poles and aerial cable in the Robert
Street right-of-way from Ocean Drive south to Santa Fe Street and is asking that an
easement be retained within the Robert Street right-of-way, to encompass the facilities
already located within the right-of-way.
The fair market value appraised by City Staff is $2,048 for the 2,250-square foot closure
of Purl Street right-of-way. The abutting owners have been advised of and agree with the
specified conditions of this street closure.
AN ORDINANCE
ABANDONING AND VACATING A 2,250 SQUARE FOOT PORTION OF

Christi to abandon and vacate said portion of the street right-of-way for all purposes, subject to
the provisions below.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS, THAT:
SECTION 1. That the 2,250 square foot portion of a 50 foot wide street right-of-way on Purl
Place, north of the Robert Drive street right-of-way, as recorded in Volume 7, Pages 12, Map
Records Nueces County, Texas is abandoned and vacated for public use as a street right-of-way,
subject to Owners' compliance with the following specified conditions as part of the
abandonment and vacation:
Payment of the fair market value is set at $2,048.00 for the total 2,250 square foot portion
of Purl Place street right-of-way to be closed at Owners' expense.
That the abutting property owners fence offthe south line of the 2,250 square foot portion

Zoning Case No. 0501-01~ Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgerg~ Ltd.
Zoning Case 0501-01 was advertised for the July 17, 2001 City Cotmcil public hearing. Staff
requests that City Council table action on this matter until the July 24, 2001 hearing date.
Additional time is needed to research the documents dedicating the easement for the Procter
Ditch (Brawner Parkway) and to prepare a Drainage Maintenance Agreement consistent with the
Planning Commission's recommended Special Permit conditions (See attached Zoning Report).
The applicant is not opposed to tabling this matter.
The applicant is seeking to use a portion of the Procter Ditch drainage easement to create
additional parking for the medical clinic. In order for City Council to grant the parking use, two
separate actions are required. First, approval of a Drainage Maintenance Agreement specifically
allowing the parking use; and second, rezoning of the subject property within the drainageway to
a "B-I" Neighborhood Business District or a Special Permit, as recommended by the Planning
Commission.

PUBLIC HEARING-ZONING (City Council Action Date: July 10,2001)
Case No. 0501-0L Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgerv~ Ltd.: A change of zoning from an
"R-lB" One-family Dwelling District with a "SP' Special Permit and "R-2" Multiple Dwelling District with a
"SP" Special Permit to a "B-I" Neighborhood Business District on Port Aransas Cliffs, Block 816A, Lot 66, and
north one-half portion of the Proctor Ditch, located on the east side of South Alameda Street, approximately 650
feet south of Ropes Street.
Planning Commission and Staff's Recommendation (06/06/01): Denied the "B-I" Neighborhood
Business District, and in lieu thereof, approved a Special Permit for a shopping center subject to a site plan and
eleven (11) conditions.
Requested Council Action: Denial of the "B-I" Neighborhood Business District, and in lieu thereof,
approval ora Special Permit for a shopping center subject to a site plan and eleven (I1) conditions and adoption
of the attached ordinance.
Purpose of Request: To expand the parking area for the existing medical use building.
Summary: The subject property is a platted lot located within the Taylor Shopping Center that is currently occupied
by a medical clinic. A change of zoning from "R-lB" One-family Dxvelling District, "R-2" Multiple Dwelling
District, "R-lB" One-family Dwelling District with a Special Permit and "R-2" Multiple Dwelling District to a
"B-I" Neighborhood Business District was requested in order to expand the medical center's parking area into the
adjacent drainageway (Proctor Channel), also known as the Brawner Parkway. A "B-I' District or Special Permit
for the parking use is required. The Proctor Channel is zoned an "R-lB" and "R-2" Disaict.
The existing medical climc building needs additional parking due to increases in clientele. The remainder of the
shopping center to the north requires all of its parking spaces for other retail uses located therein. Therefore, the
only available area to the clinic for additional parking is within the City's drafuageway.
The drainageway has a gradual slope with an underground stormwater box culvert designed to carry the bulk of the
stormwater runoff. The drainageway serves as a secondary runoff area that seldom carries stormwater and is
considered as a green belt open space. The applicant proposes to add 24 parking spaces by extending the parking
sixteen (16) feet into the drainage right-of-way buffered by four (4) feet of landscaped area. City Council must
approve a Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement for the applicant to use the City's easement for parking and a
change of zoning to permit the use. City Council must approve the Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement
prior to taking any action on the zoning requested.
If the agreement is not approved, this rezoning request will be withdrawn. Due to time constraints and the
immediate need for additional parking, both the agreement and the change of zoning will be on the Council. It is not
Staff's intent to eliminate or reduce any of the existing conditions of the approved Special Permit. Staff does not
recommend changing the zoning but modifying the existing Special Permit to include the drainage right-of-way.
Since the Proctor Channel is considered as a green belt. Staff further recommends the applicant provide a pedesWian
sidewall or a bike/hike path from S. Alameda Street to Topeka Street to serve as an anchor pedestrian connection to
be extended at a futm'e date. The City's position is that in granting an easement agreement for a private use of City
right-of-way that there also be a comparable public benefit. The need for future pedestrian connections to arterials,
parks, and neighborhood commercial centers via drainage ways has been encouraged by the Planning Commission
for several years.

Zoning History of Property:
In August 1987, as part of the adjacent tract to the north, the property was denied a change of zoning
to a "B-I" District, and in lieu thereof, was granted a Special Permit for a shopping center. In
Zoning Report
Case No. 0501-01 (Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgery, Ltd.)
Page 3
September 1998, the property was again denied a change of zoning to a "B-1" District, and in lieu
thereof, modified the Special Permit for a shopping center to include medical offices as a permitted
use and allow one additional freestanding sign.
Recent Surrounding Zoninff Cases:
There has been no rezoning activity in the area within the past five (5) years.
Zoning Inventory:
The subject property is part of an area that is zoned an "R-lB" District and an "R-2" District. The
"R-lB" District extends in all directions from the subject property. It is predominantly developed
with single-family residences. The "R-2" District extends north of the subject property for
approximately 300 feet and is developed with apartment units. Further to the north and along the
east side of S. Alameda Street, the area is zoned an "AB" District and developed with a mixture of
medical offices, business off~ces and apartments. Northeast of the subject property there is an area
zoned a "B-4" District which is developed with a hospital (Driscoll Children's Hospital). To the
south past the drainage ditch there is a 1/2-acre tract of land zoned an "AB" District developed with
an office. Further south, a "B-I" District is developed with a retail store and a service station.
Planning Staff Analysis:
General Characteristics and Back~round: The subject property is a platted lot located within
the Taylor Shopping Center that is currently occupied by a medical clinic. A change of
zoning from "R-lB" One-family Dwelling District, "R-2" Multiple Dwelling District,
"R-1B" One-family Dwelling District with a Special Permit and "R-2" Multiple Dwelling
District to a "B-I" Neighborhood Business District was requested in order to expand the
medical center's parking area into the adjacent drainageway (Proctor Channel), also known
as the Brawner Parkway. A "B-I" District or Special Permit for the parking use is required.
The Proctor Channel is zoned an "R-lB" and "R-2" Districts.
The existing medical clinic building needs additional parking due to increases in clientele.
The remainder of the shopping center to the north requires all of its parking spaces for other
retail uses located therein. Therefore, the only available area to the clinic for additional
parking is within the City's drainageway.
The drainageway has a gradual slope ~vith an underground stormwater box culvert designed
to carry the bulk of the stormwater runoff. The drainageway serves as a secondary runoff
area that seldom carries stormwater and is considered as a green belt open space. The
applicant proposes to add 24 parking spaces by extending the parking sixteen (16) feet into
the drainage right-of-~vay buffered by four (4) feet of landscaped area. City Council must
review and approve a Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement for the applicant to use
the City's right-of-way for parking, as well as, the change of zoning.
Zoning Report
Case No. 0501-01 (Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgery, Ltd.)
Page 4
City Council must approve the Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement prior to taking
any action on the zoning requested. If the agreement is not approved, this rezoning request
will be withdrawn. Due to time constraints and the irmuediate need for additional parking,
both the agreement and the change of zoning will be on the Council. It is not Staff's intent
to eliminate or reduce any of the existing conditions of the approved Special Permit. Staff
does not recommend changing the zoning but modifying the existing Special Permit to
include the drainage fight-of-way. Since the Proctor Channel is considered as a green belt.
Staff further recommends the applicant provide a pedestrian sidewalk or a bike/hike path
fi:om S. Alameda Street to Topeka Street to serve as an anchor pedestrian connection to be
extended at a future date. The City's position is that in granting an easement agreement for
a private use of City right-of-way that there also be a comparable public benefit. The need
for future pedestrian connections to arterials, parks, and neighborhood commercial centers
via drainage ways has been encouraged by the Planning Commission for several years.
Conformity to the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Compatibili~: Overall, the
Comprehensive Plan Elements can be supportive of the requested "B-I" District due to the
subject property's direct access to an arterial. The Southeast Area Development Plan's future
land use map recommends the east side orS. Alameda Street between Doddridge Street and
Texan Trail to develop with neighborhood business uses. The subject property's current use,
although consistent with the ADP, was developed under a Special Permit that included
specific language to protect the adjacent neighborhood. The past neighborhood concerns and
special conditions still apply to the subject property and a change to "B-I" District would be
inappropriate for this site.
Potential Housing Density: Residential development in the "R-lB" District is limited to 7.26
dwelling units per acre or 2 units on 0.359 acre of the subject property. The "R-2" District
limits residential development to 14.52 dwelling units per acre or 5 units on 0.359 acre on
the subject property. A "B-i" District allows 36.30 dwelling an/ts per acre or 26 units on the
subject property. With direct access to an arterial, the increase in residential density will not
adversely impact the street system.
Height/Bulk/Setbacks/Etc.: Development in the "R-lB" District will require a fi:om yard
setback of 25 feet with a side and rear yard setback of five (5) feet each. The "R-2" District
requires a fi:om yard setback of twenty (20) feet with a side and rear yard setback often (10)
feet for the first story plus five (5) feet for each additional story. A "B-I" District requires
a front yard setback of twenty (20) feet and no side or rear yard setback unless adjacent to
a residential district where a setback of ten (10) feet would be required. Ail three (3)
districts, "R-IB", "R-2" and "B- I" Districts, limit the building height to three (3) stories with
the "R-lB" and "B-I" District allowing 35 feet and the "R-2" District allowing 45 feet.
Signage: Both the "R-lB" and "R-2" Districts permit one wall sign with an area not to
exceed one square foot and do not allow a fi:eestanding sign. The "B-I" District permits
unlimited wall signs and one freestanding sign with a sign area not to exceed forty (40)
square feet and a height of twenty (20) feet.

Pros:
a)
b)
Traffic: The existing medical clinic building is estimated to generate approximately 530
daily trip ends. Traffic associated with the medical clinic has direct access to an merial, S.
Alameda Street, which is carrying over 26,000 vehicles per day. Any impact from the
clinic's traffic on the adjacent merial will be minimal.
Parking'Screening: A medical clinic is required to provide one off-street parking space for
each 200 square feet of gross floor area. The existing clinic contains 15,513 square feet and
would require a minimum of 78 off-street parking spaces. The subject property currently
contains 31 parking spaces. Originally when the property was developed, it was part of the
adjacent property to the north and the parking was calculated at the shopping center rate of
one parking space for each 220 square feet of gross floor area and the parking was provided
throughout the property. ~ ........ -"

p~uF~.lty ,~cre ;,~t~ onmpliance with the ,-,o,-t~;.o.
Costs to City: There are no anticipated costs to the City. Improvements to the parking area,
the landscaping, and proposed bike path, will be entirely a cost to the applicant.
Platting: The subject property is a platted lot and further replatting is not required at this
time.
(Ideas in support of the request.)
The subject property has direct access to a major merial, S. Alameda Street.
Creates an opportunity for a dual private/public use allowing for installation of a future
pedestrian connection between Topeka and South Alameda Streets.
Cons: (Ideas in support of maintaining the current zoning.)
a) Removal of the Special Permit could allow access to Topeka Street, a local residential street.
b)
The purpose of the request could be accommodated through the revision of the existing
Special Permit.
Staff Recommendation:
Denial of the "B-I" District, and in lieu thereof, approval of a Special Permit for a shopping center
subject to a site plan and the following eleven (11) conditions:
USES: The only uses permitted by this Special Permit other than the uses permitted by fight
in an "R-lB" One-family Dwelling District and an "R-2" Multiple Dwelling District are

REQUEST: "R-lB" One-Family Dwelling District w/SP and R- Multiple Dwelling District w/SP to "B-I"
Neighborhood Business District on Port Aransas Cliffs, Block 816A, Lot 66 and north one-half of
the Proctor Ditch. located on the east side of South Alameda Street, approximately 650 feet south
of Ropes Street
Mr. Saldafia presented a slide illustration of the subject property and the surrounding area. The subject
properVy is part of an area that is zoned an "R-lB" District and an "R-2" District. The ~'R-1B" District extends in all
directions from the subject property. It is predominantly developed with single-family residences. The "R-2"
District extends north of the subject property for approximately 300 feet and is developed with apartmem units.
Further to the north and along the east side of S. Alameda Street, the area is zoned an "AB" District and developed
with a mixture of medicat offices, business offices and aparunents. Northeast o£the subject property there is an area
zoned a "B-4" District which is developed with a hospital (Driscoll Children's Hospital). To the south past the
drainage ditch there is a 1/2-acre tract of land zoned an "AB" District developed with an office. Further south, a
"B-I" District is developed with a retail store and a service station.
Mr. Saldafia continued that the subject property is a platted lot located within the Taylor Shopping Center
that is curremly occupied by a medical clinic. A change of zoning from "R-lB" One-family Dwelling District,
"R-2" Multiple Dwelling District, "R-IB" One-family Dwelling District with a Special Permit and "R-2" Multiple
Dwelling District to a "B-1 "Neighborhood Business District was requested in order to expand the medical center's
parking area into the adjacent drainageway (Proctor Channel), also known as the Brawner Parkway. A "B-I"
District or Special Permit for the parking use is required. The Proctor Channel is zoned an "R-lB" and "R-2"
Districts.
The existing medical clinic building needs additional parking due to increases in clientele. Adjacent to the
north, is the remainder of the shopping center that requires all of its parking spaces for other retail uses located
therein. Therefore, the only available area to the clinic for additional parking is within the City's drainageway.
The drainageway has a gradual slope with an underground stormwater box culvert designed to carry the
bulk of the stormwater runoff. The drainageway serves as a secondary runoff area that seldom carries sturmwater
and is considered as a green belt open space. The applicant proposes to add 24 parking spaces by extending the
parking sixteen (16) feet into the drainage right-of-way buffered by four (4) feet of landscaped area. City Council
must review and approve a Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement for the applicant to use the City's right-of-
way for parking, as well as, the change of zuning.
City Council must approve the Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement prior to taking any action on
the zoning requested. If the agreement is not approved, this rezoning request will be withdrawn. Due to time
constraints and the immediate need for additional parking, both the agreement and the change of zoning will be on
the Council. It is not Staff's intent to eliminate or reduce any of the existing conditions of the approved Special
Permit. Staff does not recommend changing the zoning but modi~ing the existing Special Permit to include the
drainage right-of-way. Since the Proctor Channel is considered as a green belt. Staff further recommends the
applicant provide a pedestrian sidewalk or a bike/hike path fi-om S. Alameda Street to Topeka Street to serve as an
anchor pedestrian connection to be extended at a future date. The City's position is that in granting an easement
agreement for a private use of City right-of-way that there also be a comparable public benefit. The need for future
pedestrian connections to arterials, parks, and neighborhood commercial centers via drainage ways has been
encouraged by the Planning Commission for several years.
The Southeast Area Development Plan's future land use map recommends the east side of S. Alameda
Street between Doddridge Street and Texan Trail to develop with neighborhood business uses. The subject
propertjt's current use, although consistent with the ADP, was developed under a Special Permit that included
specific language to protect the adjacent neighborhood. The past neighborhood concerns and special conditions still
apply to the subject property and a change to "B-I" District would be inappropriate for this site.

Mr. Saldafia said that Staff recommends denial of the "B-I" District, and in lieu thereof, approval of a
Special Permit for a shopping center subject to a site plan and the following ten (10) conditions:
1. USES: The only uses permitted by this Special Permit other than the uses permitted by right in an "R-1B"
One-family Dwelling District and an "R-2" Multiple Dwelling District are retail stores, offices, medical
clinics, personal service uses and one restaurant not to exceed 2,000 square feet. The following uses are
prohibited: bars, lounges, or nightclubs, discos, undertaking businesses or establishmems, establishments

service stations, fueling stations, liquor stores, or any business that creates strong offensive odors, fumes, or
dust, or emit loud or shrill sounds.
2. SCREENING: A masonry wall with a height of not less than eight (8) feet must be installed and
maintained along a line parallel to and ten (10) feet west of the Topeka Street right-of-way line. The
masonry wall must be maintained fi.om the existing masonry wall parallel to Topeka Street and the parking
area. A landscaped screening that will obtain a height of six (6) feet within one year of planting, must be
installed and maintained along the parking lot's south and east boundary lines.
3. LANDSCAPING: A 1 O-foot landscaped strip must be provided and maintained along the area between the
masonry wall and Topeka Street. This landscaped strip must contain at least one, 3-inch caliper oak tree
every 30 feet on center and must be fully irrigated. Landscaping along the south property line and the west
portion of the property must comply with the attached site plan.
4. REFUSE: All disposable items must be placed in containers at designated fenced disposal areas. All
refuse container removal must occur between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.
5. ACCESS: Vehicular access to Topeka Street is prohibited.
6. LIGHTING: All security lighting must be directional and shielded. Lighting must be directed away fi.om
the surrounding residences and public rights-of-way.
7. SIGNAGE: All wall signs must comply with the standards set forth in the "B-I" Neighborhood Business

the sign does not exceed twenty (20) square feet and a height often (10) feet.
8. BIKE AND HIKE TRAIL: A concrete bike path with a width of not less than eight (8) feet must be
constructed to connect the S. Alameda Street sidewalk with the Topeka Street sidewalk. The bike path
must be installed within one year fi.om the date of this ordinance. Construction plans for installation must
be approved by City Engineering prior to construction start.
9. ORDINANCE NO. 023438: Adoption of this ordinance does not affect the conditions or site plan for Lot
65 as set forda in Ordinance No. 023438, approved by the City Council on September 15, 1998.
10. TIME LIMIT: Such Special Permit shall be deemed to have expired within one (1) year of the date of this
ordinance unless the property is being used as outlined in condition #1 and in compliance with all other
conditions.
Mr. Saldafia answered Commission's questions by saying that the existing ditch is not a primary drainage
way. He informed the Commission that the existing Special Permit allows for offices, some retail and one (1)
restaurant.
At the request of Chairman Berlanga, Mr. Saldafla explained Special Condition #9 affecting Lot 65. He
said that the subject property is adjoined to Taylor Center and received a Special Permit on both lots as one property.
Planning Commission Minutes

Case No. 0501-01 (Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgery, Ltd.)
Page .3
Since that time, the subject property was sold by the owners of the Taylor Center. As a result, the owners of the
subject property are requesting additional parking because they are prohibited from using parking designated for
Taylor Center. He clarified that amendment to requirements for the Special Permit would be to the Special Permit
placed on the subject property and not the Taylor Center.
Public hearing was opened.
Clark Flato, 403 N. Shoreline, representing the Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgery Center, said that the
applicant proposes to develop a 20-foot encroachment into the Proctor Ditch with required landscape and develop a
hike and bike trail. Mr. Flato provided a brief history of Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgery Center's customer base.
He said that due to changing health care needs and requiring patients to patron outpatient centers as opposed to
hospital facilities, there has been an increase in procedures performed. The center needs an additional 24 parking
spaces to accommodate the influx of patients as submitted in the site plan.
Commissioner Zamora asked whether a parking variance would be required. Mr. Flato said that he and the
applicant are working with Staffto address the parking requirements. Mr. Ganning said that as a shopping center
use, the parking requirements have been met. He explained that if the business were considered a stand-alone
business, they would be lacking 47 parking spaces in order to be in compliance. He continued that the property
owner is working with the City to acquire City-owned property to the south of the Proctor Channel to use for
parking.
In response to Commissioner Zamora, Mr. Gunning explained the Drainage Easement Maintenance
Agreement. He said that it is similar to a Use Privilege Agreement instrument to allow someone to use city
property within the right-of-way. The use will be a long term use which will require an annual lease payment. He
continued that the Legal Department has devised the Drainage Easement Maintenance Agreement. It will stipulate
that the lessee will maintain the landscaping and keep the area maintained around the area. There will also be a
requirement to install a hike and bike trail that will extend fzom South Alameda Street to Topeka Street.
Mr. Gunning described the hike and bike trail as being an 8-foot wide sidewalk and landscaping that will
remain on city property. He provided a map illustrating the area that will be designated as a hike and bike trail and
described the street layout. Mr. Gunning said that there is an opportunity to develop a pedestrian connection. The
series of streets between S. Alameda and Santa Fe Street dead-end into the Proctor Channel. He referred to the map
and illustrated the lack of linear availability for pedesU'ian connection. The additional right-of-way in the Proctor
Channel, which is the subject propenT, is surplus land that the City acquired adjacent to the subject property but not
for the entire distance to Santa Fe Street. The subject property is viewed as a parkway and open space than a
drainage way because of the drainage box that was placed underneath. He said that it is rare for the ditch to carry
water.
Commissioner Salazar asked for the center configuration. Mr. Flato explained that the outpatient center is
coustructed as part of Taylor Center and has a common wall, but on two (2) different lots. He explained that
additional parking being considered by the applicant and discussed with staff is city property located across the
drainage ditch and is not contiguous with the subject property.
~ton Lorenz, 445 Brawner Parkway, said that he objected to a "B-I' DisU~ict zoning on the proper~y. He
cunti~ued that he believed an extension would not be att~ctive to the area and hoped that the area between Alameda
and Santa Fe would be treated the same as the drainage area to the west of S. Alameda Street with regard to
landscaping and improvements. The extension of paved parking will block offsome of the area. He asked that the
area being considered for a Special Permit not be extended to the center of Proctor Ditch. Mr. Lorenz said that the
Corpus Christi Outpatient Surgery Cemer has been a good neighbor but he doesn't want to see a precedent set in
using City property to offset a private business for additional parking. He objected to the encroachment into
Brawnar Parkway.
George Taylor, owner of Taylor Center, said that he did not object to the parking extension. However, he
did express concern regarding landscaping and requested that the landscaping be consistent.

Public hearing was closed.
In response to Commissioner Sween-McGloin's concern, Mr. Saldafla said that the applicant will submit a
revised site plan illustrating the parking, 4-foot landscaped area, and the hike and bike trail. Commissioner
Sween-McGloin requested that Special Permit Condition #3 be amended to reflect that the applicant will be
presenting a new site plan as stated by Mr. Sald~a.
Commissioner Sween-McGloin said that the National Estuary Program conducted a survey which found
that non-point source pollution is the greatest polluter in the area. She continued that the run-off from the driveway
will get into the bays and estuaries and requested the addition of a filtering system with vegetation or tilting the
parking toward a catch basin. Mr. Gunning said that the parking area will be designed so that the mn-off does not
flow directly into the Proctor Channel but into the existing drainage culvert.
Commissioner Pusley said that he would have concerns with the parking spaces. The problems with
parking and the effects to the drainage system would not be affected by 20 parking spaces. He suggested that Staff
discuss the catch basin issue with Ms. Valerie Gray, Stormwater Superintendent and discuss ground cover as a
filtering system. Mr. Gunning said that staff met with Ms. Gray and have discussed issues regarding stormwater
requirements and concerns.
Commissioner Sa!a?ar said that requirement of a filtering system was a good requirement but should be
addressed throughout the city and not an isolated situation. Mr. Far/as provided the Commission with information
regarding the catch basin being on the subject property and indicated it could easily be installed.
Motion by Pusley, seconded by Mims, to deny the "B-I" Neighborhood Business District request and
approve a Special Permit for a shopping center subject to a site plan and the following 11 conditions:

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
PUBLIC HEARING - ZONING (City Council Action Date: July 10, 2001)
Case No. 0601-01~ MSW Promenade, L. P.: A change of zoning from an "R-lB" One-family
Dwelling District with a "SP" Special Permit to a "B-I" Neighborhood Business District on Cullan Place Unit 1,
Block 8, Lot 3, located on the east side of Airline Road, approximately 450 feet north of McArdle Road.
Planning Commission and Staff's Recommendation (06/06/01): Approved.
Requested Council Action: Approval of the "B-I" Neighborhood Business District and adoption of the
attached ordinance.
Purpose of Request: To develop other retail uses that include restaurants.
Summary: The subject property is located within the north half of the Promenade Shopping Center that is currently
zoned an "R-lB' One-family Dwelling District with a Special Permit. The south end of this retail center is zoned a
"B-I" Neighborhood Business District. The applicant has requested a change of zoning to a "B-I" District for a
restaurant use. In 1985, when the original Special Permit was approved, it permitted retail uses with a prohibition
on 24-hour operations. This Special Permit also required an 8-fuot masonry wall along the residential boundary, a
landscaped buffer area, and prohibited alcohol or food to be served in any retail establishment. In 1987, the Special
Permit was modified to exclude full food service restaurants. As of recent, the applicant has received inquiries
about locating a restaurant in the comer end storefront. The subject property contains a portion of the Promenade
Shopping Center that has direct access to an arterial, Airline Road, and no direct access to a local residential street.
The shopping center abuts a residential area that is buffered by an 8~foot masonry wall along the north and east
property lines.
At the time the original Special Permit was approved, there were uses permitted in the "B-I" District that were not
compatible with the residential adjacency, such as an auto repair or bar. The "B-I" District has since been amended
to eliminate those uses and making the "B-I" District more residential-friendly. The "B-i" District portion of the
shopping center currently includes restaurants. Across Airline Road from the subject property, the "B-I" District
area that includes the Crossroads Village Shopping Center, also contain restaurants. Approval of the "B-I" District
on the subject property would be an expansion of the "B-I" District to the south and west.
Applicant's Position: The applicant concurs with Planning Commission and Staff's recommendation.
Notification: Prior to the date of this memorandum, thirty-two (32) notices were mailed to the properly owners
within a 200-foot radius, of which none were returned in favor or in opposition. The 20% rule is not in effect.

Dwelling District with a Special Permit. The south end of this retail center is zoned a "B-I"
Neighborhood Business District. The applicant has requested a change of zoning to a "B-I"
District for a restaurant use. In 1985, when the original Special Permit was approved, it
permitted retail uses with a prohibition of 24-hour operations. This Special Permit also
requked an 8-foot masonry wall along the residential boundary, a landscaped buffer area, and
prohibited alcohol or foot to be served in any retail establishment. In 1987, the Special
Permit was modified to exclude full food service restaurants. As of recent, the applicant has
received inquiries about locating a restaurant in the comer end storefront. The subject
property contains a portion of the Promenade Shopping Center that has direct access to an
arterial, Airline Road, and no direct access to a local residential street. The shopping center
abuts a residential area that is buffered by an 8-foot masonry wall along the north and east
property lines.
At the time the original Special Permit ~vas approved, there were uses permitted in the "B-I"
District that were not compatible with the residential adjacency, such as an auto repair or bar.
The "B-I" District has since been amended to eliminate those uses and making the "B-I"
District more residential-friendly. The "B-I" District portion of the shopping center
currently includes restaurants. Across Airline road from the subject property, the "B-I"
District area that includes the Crossroads Village Shopping Center, also contains restaurants.
Approval of the "B-I" District on the subject property would be an expansion of the "B-I"
District to the south and west.
Zoning Report
Case No. 0601-01 (MSW Promenade, L. P.)
Page 4
Conformity to the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Compatibility: Overall, the
Comprehensive Plan Elements can be supportive of the requested "B-I" District due to the
subject property's direct access to an arterial. The Southeast Area Development Plan's
adopted future land use map recommends the area to develop with neighborhood business
uses. The requested "B-I" District is consistent with the Plan's adopted future land use map.
Potential Housing Density: Residential development in the "R-lB" District is limited to a
density of 7.26 dwelling units per acre or eight (8) traits on the subject property. A "B-l"
District permits a residential density of 36.30 dwelling units per acre or 40 units on the
subject property. With the property's direct access to an arterial, the increase in density will
not adversely impact the area.
Height/Bulk/Setbacks/Etc.: The "R-lB" District requires a front yard setback of 25 feet with
a side and rear yard setback of five (5) feet each. Development in the "B-I" District is
required to provide a front yard setback of 20 feet and no side or rear yard setbacks unless
adjacent to a residential district where a setback of ten (10) feet would be required.
Buildings in the "R-lB" and "B-I" Districts are limited to 35 feet, not to exceed three (3)
stories.
Signage: Signs in the "R-lB" District are limited to one wall sign not to exceed an area of
one square feet. The "B-I" District permits unlimited number of wall signs and permits one
(1) freestanding sign with an area of 40 square feet and a height of 20 feet.
Traffic: The change in zoning will have minimal impact on the adjacent arterial since the
subject property is already developed with retail and office uses.
Parking/Screening: A shopping center is required to provide one (1) off-street parking space
for each 250 square feet of gross floor area. This portion of the shopping center contains
10,548 square feet and would require 42 parking spaces. The off-su'eet parking is distributed
throughout the Promenade Center. A standard screening fence with a height of not less than
six (6) feet is required when a business or industrial use locates adjacent to a residential
district. There is an existing masonry wall with a height of eight (8) feet along the residential
adjacency.
Costs to City: All of the infraslcture required to serve the subject property is available and
no costs to the City are anticipated.
Platting: The subject property contains a platted lot and further replatting is not required.

Pros: (Ideas in support of the request.)
a) The subject property has direct access to an arterial without traversing a residential area.
b) The requested "B-I" District is consistent with the adopted Southeast Area Development
Plan's adopted future land use map as well as the adjacent zoning and uses.
c) The 8-foot masonry wall will buffer the restaurant use.
Cons: (Ideas in support of maintaining the current zoning.)
a) Approval of the rezoning would eliminate the limited hours of operation.
Staff Recommendation: Approval.

Request:
"R-lB" One-family Dwelling District w/SP to "B-I" Neighborhood Business District on property
described as Cullen Place Unit 1, Block 8, Lot 3, located on the east side of Airline Road,
approximately 450 feet north of McArdle Road and located on the east side of Airline Road,
approximately 450 feet north of McArdle Road
Ma'. Saldafia provided a slide illustration of the subject property and the surrounding area. The subject
property is part of a 3.39-acre tract of land that is zoned an "R-lB" District with a Special Permit and is developed
as a retail center. Adjacent to the north and further east and west, there are 665 acres of land zoned "R-lB" District
and developed with single-family residences. South and west of the subject property, there are 23 acres of land
zoned a "B-I" District and developed with retail stores, offices, and restaurants. Further south is an area containing
555 acres that is zoned a "B4" District and developed with shopping centers.
Mr. Saldalla said that the subject property is located within the north half of the Promenade Shopping
Center that is curremly zoned an "R-lB" One-family Dwelling District with a Special Permit. The south end of this
retail center is zoned a "B-I" Neighborhood Business District. The applicant has requested a change of zoning to a
· 'B-i" District for a restaurant use. In 1985. when the original Special Permit was approved, it permitted retail uses
with a prohibition of 24-hour operations. This Special Permit required an 8-foot masonry wall along the residential
boundary, a landscaped buffer area, and prohibited alcohol or food to be served in any retail establishment. In 1987,
the Special Permit was modified to exclude full food service restaurants. As of recent, the applicant has received
inquiries about locating a restaurant in the comer end storefront. The subject property contains a portion of the
Promenade Shopping Center that has direct access to an arterial, Airline Road, and no direct access m a local
residential su'eet. The shopping center abuts a residential area that is buffered by an 8-fuot masonry wall along the
north and east property lines.
At the time the original Special Permit was approved, there were uses permitted in the "B-I" District that
were not compatible with the residential adjacency, such as an auto repair or bar. The "B-I" District has since been
amended to eliminate those uses and making the "B- 1" District more residantial-friendly. The "B-I" District portion
of the shopping center currently includes restaurants. Across Airline Road from the subject property, the "B-I"
District area that includes the Crossroads Village Shopping Center, also contain restaurants. Approval of the "B-I"
District on the subject property would be an expansion of the "B- 1" District to the south and west.
Mr. Saldafin said that the Southeast Area Development Plan's adopted future land use map recommends the
area to develop with neighborhood business uses. The requested "B-I" District is consistent with the Plan's adopted
future land use map. Therefore. Staff recommends approval. There were 32 notices mailed to property owners
within a 200-foot radius of which none were recommended in favor or opposition.
Public hearing was opened.
Ramey Beene, 5866 South Staples, represented the applicant. Mr. Beene provided a brief history of the
shopping center and described the shopping center. He said that the screening fence is an 8-foot tall double brick
service drive fence with a 10-foot green area with 25-foot oak trees on center every 25 feet. He said that he has had
several requests for restaurant businesses in the area that is currently zoned with a "R-lB" District. The applicant
was requesting a "B-I" District to be consistent with other shopping centers in Corpus Christi.
Mr. Beene said that there would be adequate parking for "B-I" District businesses. He continued that
businesses across Airline Road currently use their excess parking which equates to approximately 50 spaces.
Public hearing was closed.

Commissioner Pusley expressed concern with the lack of parking for future patrons for the shopping cemer.
Mr. Gunning said that as long as parking is not restricted, there would be adequate parking. Mr. Saldafla said that
the subject property would require 12 parking spaces if it is zoned "B-I" District as proposed. The applicant said
that there are approximately 50 parking spaces which is more than required by the ordinance.
Motion by Mires, seconded by Sween-McGloin, to approve the rezoning request. Motion passed with

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
PUBLIC HEARING - ZONING (City Council Action Date: July 17, 2001)
Case No. 0601-02~ Braselton Land Ventures~ Inc.: A change of zoning from an "R-lB" One-family
Dwelling District to an "R-lC" One-family Dwelling District on Four Bluff and Encinal Farm and Garden Tracts,
Section 11, being 6.402 acres out of Lots 3 and 14, located on the southwest comer of Dunbarton Oak and Patti
Drives.
Planning Commission and Staff's Recommendation (06/20/01): Approved.
Requested Council Action: Approval of the "R-lC" One-family Dwelling District and adoption of the
attached ordinance.
Purpose of Request: To develop a 40-lot garden-home subdivision.
Summary: The applicant is requesting a change of zoning to an "R-lC" One-family D~velling District in order to
develop a forty (40) lot single-family subdivision, on a 6.402 acre t~act. The proposed subdivision is west of
Dunbarton Oak Village Subdivision and Patti Drive. The subdivision will be generally bounded on the north, south,
and west by vacant property and to the east by Patti Drive. A cellular tower is situated near the northwest comer of
the subject properly. East of the subject site is the developed Dunbarton Oak Village Subdivision zoned with an "R-
lB" Disa-ict. The propen'y to the north and south is land zoned "R-lB" that is undeveloped. Adjacent to the west
are 9.92 acres of land zoned an "R-2" District that is undeveloped.
The "R-lC" District would allow a maximum build out of sixty-one (61) single-family lots which is 21 lots more
than the site plan indicates. If proposed plan is followed, the density of the proposed single-family development
would be 6.24 units per acre which is lower than the 9.68 units per acre allowed in an "R-lC" District. The subject
property's current zoning of "R-lB" permits single-family development at a density of 7.26 units per acre with a
minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet and lot width of 50 feet. The "R-lC" District requires a minimum lot size of
4,500 square feet and lot width of 45 feet.
Applicant's Position: The applicant concurs with Planning Commission and Staff's recommendation.
Notification: Prior to the date of this memorandum, seven (7) notices were mailed to the property owners within a
200-foot radius. Two (2) were returned in favor, of which one is also the applicant/owner of the subject property.
None were returned in opposition. The 20% rule is not in effect.

Zoning Report
Case No. 0601-02

In August 1996, 15 acres, 60 feet northwest of the subject property was granted a change of zoning
from "R-lB" & "B-4" Districts to an "A-2" District for a multi-family development.
Zoning Inventory:
The subject property is a part of a 704- acre area zoned an "R-lB" District that is predominantly
farmland. Adjacent to the north and south is land zoned an "R-lB" District that is undeveloped.
Adjacent to the west are 9.92 acres of land zoned an "R-2" District that is undeveloped except for
a cellular tower located near the northwest comer of the subject property. Adjacent to the east across
Pattie Drive, are 6.5 acres of land zoned an "R-lB" District and 1.5 acres of land zoned "B-I". This
area is developed as a single-family residential subdivision.
Planning Staff Analysis:
General Characteristics and Background: The applicant is requesting a change of zoning to
an "R-lC" One-family Dwelling District in order to develop a 40-lot, single-family
subdivision, on a 6.402 acre tract. The proposed subdivision is west of Dunbarton Oak
Village Subdivision and Patti Drive. The subdivision will be generally bounded on the north,
south, and west by vacant property and to the east by Patti Drive. A cellular tower is situated
near the northwest comer of the subject property.
The "R-lC" District would allow a maximum build out of sixty-one (61) single-family lots
which is 23 lots more than the site plan indicates. If proposed plan is followed, the density
of the proposed single-family development would be lower than the 9.68 units per acre
allowed in an "R-IC" District.
The subject property's current zoning of "R-lB" permits single-family development at a
density of 7.26 units per acre with a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet and lot width of
50 feet. The "R- 1C" District requires a minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet and lot width
of 45 feet.
East of the subject site is the developed Dunbarton Oak Village Subdivision zoned with an
"R-lB" District. The property to the north and south is land zoned "R-lB" that is
undeveloped. Adjacent to the west are 9.92 acres of land zoned an "R-2" District that is
undeveloped.
Conformity to the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Compatibility: Overall, the
Comprehensive Plan Elements can be supportive of the requested "R-IC" District. The
Southside Area Development Plan's future land use map recommends the area to develop
with low- density residential development. The requested "R-1C" District and the proposed
38-unit single-family residential development with a maximum possible build out of 61 units
is generally consistent with the Plan's recommended land use.
Zoning Report
Case No. 0601-02
Page 4
Potential Housing Density: The "R-lB" District permits a density of 7.26 dwelling units per
acre or 46 units on the subject property. An "R-lC" District permits 9.68 dwelling units per
acre or 61 units on the subject property. The applicant's preliminary site plan indicates a
maximum build out of 38 units on the subject site which is 23 umts less than allowed under
the "R-lC" District and 8 units less than allowed under the "R-lB" District.
Height/Bulk/Setbacks/Etc.: The "R-lB" District requires a front yard setback of 25 feet and
the "R-lC" District 20 feet with both having a five (5) foot side and rear yard setback.
Building heights are limited to 35 feet not to exceed three (3) stories in the "R-lB" District
and 26 feet not to exceed two (2) stories in the "R-lC" District.
Signage: Signs in the "R-lB" and "R-lC" Districts are limited to one wall sign with an area
not to exceed one square foot.
Traffic: The proposed 38-unit single-family dwellings can generate approximately 380 daily
trip ends or with a maximum possible build out of 61-units of single family dwellings 610
dally trip ends. Patti Drive, designated as a collector, will extend further south with the
development of this subdivision and will serve as the one access point to the area from
Saratoga Blvd. Traffic Engineering has indicated that the one access point is sufficient due
to the low density of the proposed subdivision with 38 or 61 units.
Parking/Screen/ng: A dwelling unit is required to provide 1.5 off-street parking spaces for
each one-bedroom unit and two (2) off-street parking spaces for each unit containing two (2)
bedrooms or more. Compliance with the off-street parking regulations will be required for
residential development.
Costs to City: Improvements to Patti Drive and extensions of water and wastewater lines will
be at the developer's expense. There are no anticipated costs to the City.
· Platting: The subject property is not platted.
Pros: (Ideas in support of the request.)
a) The proposed development is consistent with the adopted Southside Area Development Plan.
Cons: (Ideas in support of maintaining the current zoning.)
a) Property has one point of access from Patti Drive that extends to Saratoga Blvd.
b) Increases the single-family density from 7.26 units per acre to 9.68 units per acre.

REQUEST:
"R-lB" One-family Dwelling District to "R-lC" One-family Dwelling Distxict un property
described as Flour Bluff and Encinal Farm and Garden Tracts, Section 11, 6.402 acres out of Lots
3 and 14, and located on the southwest comer of Dtmbarton Oak and Patti Drives.
Mr. Salrla~a presented a slide illustration of the subject property and the surrounding area. The subject
property is a part oft 704- acre area zoned an "R-lB" Distxict that is predornmantly farmland. Adjacent to the north
and south is land zoned an "R-lB" District that is undeveloped. Adjacent to the west are 9.92 acres of land zoned an
"R-2" District that is undeveloped. A cellular tower is located near the northwest comer of the subject property.
Adjacent to the east across Patti Drive, are 6.5 acres of land zoned an "R-lB" District and 1.5 acres of land zoned
"B-I". This area is developed as a single-family residential subdivision.
Mr. Saldafia said that the applicant is requesting a change of zoning to an "R-lC" One-family Dwelling
District in order to develop a thirty-eight (38) lot single-family subdivision, on a 6.402 acre txact. The proposed
subdivision is west of Dtmbarton Oak Village Subdivision and Patti Drive. The subdivision will be generally
bounded on the north, south, and west by vacant propexty and Patti Drive to the east.
The "R-lC" District would allow a maXXmum build out of sixty-one (61) single-family lots which is 23 lots
more than the site plan indicates. If proposed plan is followed, the density of the proposed single-family
development would be lower than the 9.68 Umts per acre alIowed in an "R-lC" District.
The subject property's current zoning of "R-lB" permits single-family development at a density of 7.26
units per acre with a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet and lot width of 50 feet. The "R-lC" District requires a
minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet and lot width of 45 feet.
East of the subject site is the developed Danbarton Oak Village Subdivision zoned with an "R-IB" District.
The property to the north and south is land zoned "R-lB" that is undeveloped. Adjacent to the west are 9.92 acres
of land zoned an "R-2" District that is undeveloped.
The Southaide Area Development Plan's future land use map recommends the area to develop with low-
density residential development. The requested "R-lC" District and the proposed 38-unit single-family residential
development with a maximum possible build out of 61 units is generally consistent with the Plan's recommended
land use.
Chaxrman Berlanga opened the public hearing. No one appeared in favor or opposition. Public hearing
was closed.
Commissioner Richter asked whether Patti Drive was the only access into the neighborhood. Mr. Saldafia
responded in the affm'native and explained that Traffic Engineering reviewed the proposed plan for the subdivision
and did not object to having only one access. He continued that Patti Drive would eventually be extended to County
Road 26, which is currently called Timbergate Drive. At this time, there is no timeline for the extension. Mr.
Gunning added that ultimately Patti Drive will connect with Dunbarton Oak.
In response to commtssioner Pusley, Mr. Saldafia said that Staff has reviewed a preliminary plat of the
proposed subdivision which illustxates 38 lots. The official plat submission will not be made until City Council
approved the zoning.
Motion by Salazar, seconded by Cheek, to approve the rezonmg request. Motion passed with
Sween-McGloin and Zamora being absent.

CITY STAFF PRESENTER(S):

Jorge G. Cruz-Aedo
Title
Director of Financial Services
Dept/Division
Financial Services
ISSUE: In conjunction with the fiscal year 2001-2001 budgetary discussions, Financial Services is
presenting options for the City's health insurance rates to take affect on August 1, 2001.
BACKGROUND: In May 2001, an actuary, Craig Rennpage of HCC Employee Benefits, Inc.,
completed a follow-up analysis of the City's existing medical funding rates for the fiscal years
beginning August 1, 2000 and August 1, 2001. He had previously performed an analysis in October
2000.
Mr. Rennpage pointed out that, assuming no further change in the current plan design, the premiums
for Citicare and Citicare Q-Plus would need to be adjusted by 16.96% as of August 1, 2001; for
Citicare-Fire, premiums would need to be adjusted by 26.93% as of August 1, 2001; and for Public
Safety Citicare, premiums would need to be adjusted by 21.17% as of August 1, 2001.
Taking into account the savings realized from the administrative changes made in November 2000,
staff recommends that a 3% premium adjustment be implemented for Citicare and Citicare A-Plus.
The City Manager will execute a plan design change to raise the emergency room co-pay from $35
to $50 for Citicare and Citicare Q-Plus. The overall impact of the administrative changes made in
November 2000, as well as the savings from the proposed plan design changes, equate to
approximately 16.96%, the increase recommended by Mr. Rennpage.
At the present time, premium adjustments and plan design changes for Citicare Fire and Public
Safety Citicare are being negotiated.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION: None at this time.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 17, 2001
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances, City of Corpus Chdsti,
Chapter 21, Garbage, Trash, and Other Refuse, regarding the disposal of yard waste and
eliminating the limit on the number of containers that may be set out by residential
customers; providing for penalties; providing for severance; and providing for publication.
ISSUE: Reduce customer complaints and provide efficient collection services to the solid
waste services' customer.
BACKGROUND: This ordinance revises set out provisions for normal garbage
service and clarifies procedures for the collection of yard waste. Over the past several
months, Solid Waste Services has experienced an influx of customer complaints about
the collection of yard waste separately to the regular garbage collection. In order to
eliminate the customer service problems and increase efficiency within the department
for collection of yard waste and garbage, this amendment to the ordinance is deemed
necessary.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the approval of ordinance and amendment.

MSWSSC UNBUNDLING OF RELATED COSTS
The Solid Waste Service Fee is derived by taking the difference of the current tipping &e of $25.25 and the cost to bury
Solid Waste at the J. C. Elliotl Landfill (currently approximated at $15.00/ton). To bring about a better understanding
of this difference, thc costs associated with the difference. $10.25/ton, has been broken out in the following manner:
Landfill Project Fee $3.06/ton
Household Hazardous Waste $0.27/ton
Environmental Contingency Fund $1.17/ton
Subtotal $4.50/ton
Administrative Costs $3.79/ton
Education $0.56/ton
Code Enforcement $0.34/ton
Environmental Compliance $0.53/ton
Cash for Trash $0.53/ton
Subtotal $5.75/ton
Total $10~25/ton
New Street Allocation $ 1.17/ton
Total Fee $11.42/ton
These costs have been paid in the past with the $25.25/ton disposal fee paid at the J. C. Elliott Landfill. We have
reduced the fee to the haulers, but need to pass on these costs to enable us to keep operating within state and federal
statutes. Costs associated with disposal will be passed through to the generat~rs of the waste as long as they reside
within the Corpus Christi City Limits. In addition to the previous costs, the l;:e now includes $1.17/ton tbr a street
allocation. This additional allocation is required due to the wear and tear that the refuse trucks cause to the City streets
and will provide revenue that will be used to repair damaged streets.
The total fee will be applied as follows:
Commercial & Residential
In our estimates, residential disposal is equal to approximately 109,500 tons/yr. If they were included in paying a fair
portion of the generator and street fee, this would produce approximately $718,320 in revenue that could go toward
reducing the generator fee paid through commercial haulers.
If this revenue were applied to thc equation, then the fee could be reducer[ as follows:
To generators utilizing haulers that do not use City's Landfill
$11.42/ton or $0.79/cy
To generators utilizing contracted commercial haulers:
$4.72/ton or $0.33/cy
To generators utilizing non-contracted commercial haulers: $1.17/ton or $0.08/cy

Net Revenue over Expenses
2,093,745
Collections net revenue over expenses of $2,093,745 is available to be used towards cost of burial, street
allocation, education, administration, code enforcement, environmental compliance, and cash for trash.
Currently the residential tonnage is approximately 107,000. At this tonnage, the residential household
could pay $19.57/ton, if $2,093,745 were allocated to disposal. This still leaves a deficit of $5.68/ton per
household per year from the current $25.25 tipping fee.
Considering that the residential waste ~;tream (73,000 accounts ~ 1.5 tons/yr, ea.) is approximately thirty
six percent of the total waste stream estimated to be delivered to the J. C. Elliott Landfill in FY 2001-2002,
then the residential portion of the $2,000,000 shortfall would be approximately $720,000. This equals $9.84
per year per account, or $0.82 per accmmt per month in additional fee to the resident.
MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE SYSTEM SERVICE CHARGE
Tonnage Disposed:
BFI 125,000
Other (Note 1) 75,000
Total 200,000
Basis for formulas is CY = 80lbs, 25 CY per Ton, therefore 200,000 tons = 5,000,000 CY.
Residential (assuming 73,000 households, each disposing 1.5 tons/yr.) - 109,500 tons/yr.
Disposal Rates
All rates include street allocation.
Commercial Rates when Residential is included:
BFI 1,747,200 CY $578,214
BFI 60,000 tons $283,182
Other (Note 1) 455,000 CY $267,774
Other (Note 1) 16,800 tons $141~390
Total $1,270,560
Residential (Note 2) $718,320
Total Revenue $1,988,880
Note 1: It is estimated that approximately 40,000 tons of"Other" tonnage will come from cash customers
paying at the gate. This will result in only the Street Allocation portion of the Municipal Solid Waste
Service System Charge being collected. On the remaining 35,000 tons of"Other" tonnage there appears to
be a disproportionate amount of MSWSSC fee collected. This is due to the generators &the CY or
tonnage being charged at a higher rate than those of the haulers under contract and therefore this reduces
the charge to contracted haulers. These higher rate haulers are currently not disposing of MSW at the J. C.
Elliott Landfill and would be assessed the full generator fee. Should these haulers elect to contract for
disposal at a later date, this disproportionality will be resolved.
Note 2: Residents dispose of approximately 1.5 tons/yr. This makes the total for residential account
disposal of $9.84/yr., or $0.82/mo. (73,000 x $0.82 x 12 = $718,320.) This revenue reduces rates to
commercial haulers. (A 33% reduction was utilized for this exercise.)

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 17, 2001
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances, City of Corpus Christi,
Chapter 21, Garbage, Trash, and Other Refuse, and Chapter 53, Traffic, regarding
placement of disposal dumpsters within rights-of-ways; providing for penalties; providing
for severance; and providing for publication.

BACKGROUND: At the request of private haulers revisions to procedures conceming
the temporary use of the public right-of-way for the placement of box containers
(dumpsters) is recommended. In the remodeling and/or construction associated with
residential properties there are instances when containers utilized for construction and
demolition associated with these projects cannot be located on the property. In such cases
the property owner or contractor must pay various recommended fees if it is necessary to
locate the container on the public right-of-way. These containers must be clearly marked
with reflective tape, cones, and barricades as required. The adjacent property owner must
provide consent to container placement.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the approval of ordinance and amendment.

"(b) The amount of water used to compute the monthly bills to one family residential
customers shall be computed on the basis of the "winter averaqe" or "interim averaqe" that is
calculated under this subsection.
(1) Definitions
a. Winter Averaqing Wastewater Charge Period -- the period of
water and wastewater service during the three complete
consecutive readinq periods commencinq on or after December 1
of each year. Durinq the three complete consecutive reading
periods, the City shall establish monthly wastewater service
charges for customers based upon their averaqe monthly water
consumption. The customer must receive wastewater service at
one location during the three consecutive reading periods in order
to establish a "winter average".
b. Winter Averaqe -- The monthly wastewater usage established by the
City of Corpus Christi during the "winter averaging wastewater charqe
period". This usaqe is the basis for monthly billinqs until June 30 of each
year. Billinqs on or after July I will reflect wastewater usaqes based on
the previous "winter averaqing wastewater charqe period".
c. Interim Averaqe -- The monthly wastewater usaqe established
by the City for customers who have not established by the City for
customers who have not established a "winter average". The
"interim averaqe" shall be 7,000 qallons per month and shall be
the basis for monthly billings until a "winter average" as defined in
subsection (b)(1)b. of this section is established.
d. Service Area -- the qeoqraphic reqion served by the City's
wastewater system,
(2) Winter Average Criteria
a. "Winter Averaqe" charqes shall apply to one-family residential
customers only.
R12105A4
24
b. The "winter averaqe" shall be based on :a customer's average
water consumption for three complete consecutive readinq
periods commencing with the customer's first readinq period on or
after December I of each year.
c. The followinq method will be used to calculate a customer's
"winter avera qe".
1. Add the three winter months water consumption
to get total water consumption.
"2. Divide three month usa.qe amount by 3 to qet
winter averaqe usaqe. Such winter averaqe usage
shall be limited to a maximum of 25,000 qallons.
"3. Usinq the winter averaqe usage, apply the
applicable rates established in subsection (a) of this
section to calculate the "winter averaqe", which will
constitute the customer's bill for each month until a
new averaqe is established (or rates are chanqed).
"d. New and Relocatinq Customers; Adjustments
"1. Customers new to the service area, who have
not established a "winter averaqe", shall be billed at
the "interim average" rate.
"2. Customers who are relocatinq within the service
area, who established a "winter avera.qe" at their
previous address, shall be billed at the "interim
averaqe" rate or their "winter avera.qe" rate at the
previous address, whichever is less.
"3. Customers who are relocating within the service,
area, who have not established a "winter averaqe" at
their previous address, shall be billed at the "interim
averaqe" rate.
"4. When a customer experiences a substantial
increase in water or wastewater usa.qe from hidden
water leaks in the plumbing system during the winter
averaqe char~le period, and if the customer can
produce proof of repairs, the Director of Finance or
the Director's designee may adiust the wastewater
bill.
"e. If water conservation measures [conditions 11 II, III or IV of
Section 55-151(3)] are in effect durin.q "winter avera.qin.q

wastewater charqe period" a new "winter average" wil. not be
calculated for that year. The previous "winter avera.q¢" (plus any
applicable rate chanqe enacted by ordinance) will be in effect until
such time that no water conservation condition remains in effect
and a new "winter averaqincl wastewater charge period" is
completed. The new "winter average" will be effective with billings
on or after the July 1 followin.q the "winter averaqinq wastewater
charge period".
"(3) Administrative chan.qe in rates.
"a. Annually the City Manager shall calculate accrued revenues
from sinqle-family residential wastewater customers from May 1 of
the prior fiscal year throuqh April 30 of the current fiscal year (the
"Base Revenues").
"b. In order to convert to the winter averaqinq system established
by this subsection, the City Manager shall, based upon the Winter
Average wastewater usaqe determined during the Winter
Averaqinq Wastewater Char.qe Period, adjust the rate applied to
each customer's winter average or interim averaqe so that the
Adjusted Rate will produce an amount equal to the Base
Revenues."
"(c) The rates established in subsection (a) of this section are based upon water consumption
for wastewater service customers with wastewater characteristics of 562 parts per million or
less by weight of chemical oxygen demand index, 250 parts per million or less by weight of
biochemical oxygen demand index, and 250 parts per million or less by weight of suspended

haulers will improve solid waste system efficiency and consolidate the administration and
enforcement of the proposed Municipal Solid Waste System Service Charge (MSWSSC).
The MSWSSC as proposed in this ordinance is applied to generators of waste within the
City limits. The MSWSSC is intended to equitably cover the costs of operating a
comprehensive solid waste system previously recovered through a bundled tipping fee.
The MSWSSC will be collected from both commercial and residential generators.

Staff recommends the approval of ordinance as submitted.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
July 13, 2001
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance adopting the City of Corpus Christi Budget for the
ensuing fiscal year beginning August 1, 2001; to be filed with the County Clerk;
appropriating monies as provided in said budget.
ISSUE: The City Charter requires the City Council adopt an annual operating
budget which appropriates proposed revenues and expenditures prior to August
1st of each year.
BACKGROUND: The proposed FY 2001-02 Operating Budget was submitted to
the Council on May 29, 2001. Subsequently, the Council has received four
presentations providing an overview of various departments, funds and issues.
In addition, the Council has been furnished with memorandums and reports
addressing specific questions or concerns.
The recommended ordinance incorporates the motion passed on June 26th to
balance current revenues to current expenditures in General Fund. It also
assumes that support from Nueces County on the Health Department matter will
come in the form of revenue rather than savings. For some funds other than
General Fund, revenues include current revenue and available resources in
unreserved fund balance for one-time capital expenditures. The attached
schedule, "Base Ordinance'; details these amounts as well as some minor
correcting entries presented earlier.
Additionally, at its June 26th Meeting, the Council recommended that Staff submit
funding options for suggested amendments to the proposed budget. These
adjustments and funding options are detailed in the "Motion l" schedule which
is also attached. Should the Council desire to amend the ordinance accordingly,
a motion-to-amend must be made.
FUTURE COUNCIL ACTION: Second reading of this Ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval of Ordinance as submitted.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City's Compensation and Classification Plan is composed of Ordinances 3658,
8127, and 17728, as amended. These Ordinances establish a job classification
system that lists job classification titles and designated pay grades and salary ranges.
Graded positions, with some limited exceptions, are subject to Municipal Civil
Service and are referred to as "Classified" positions. Positions that are exempted
from Municipal Civil Service include: incumbents who function as the principal
secretary to top management and department/division Heads (regardless of actual
job title), temporary employees, Police and Fire personnel covered by collective
bargaining units, incumbents in Manager/al Group positions listed in Section 510,
Managerial Group Pay Plan, and incumbents in Executive positions listed in Section
520, Executive Pay Plan, which designate salary ranges for Managerial and
Executive positions. In the Housekeeping Ordinance for FY 2001-2002, the
principal secretary to the Mayor and all Grant-funded positions have been exempted
from the Classified Service. Positions in the Executive Pay Plan, the Managerial
Group Pay Plan, and other exempted positions as previously noted, are "at-will," and
incumbents serve at the pleasure of the City Manager, or at the will of the City
Council if appointed by the City Council. In addition, the Compensation &
Classification Plan provides authority to the City Manager to administer the Plan in
compliance with these Ordinances, as revised and approved by the City Council.

SUMMARY OF AMENDMENTS TO THE
COMPENSATION AND CLASSIFICATION PLAN
FY 2001-2002
ORDINANCE 3658:
Section 100, Definition and Adoption of Classification Plan, Subsection 103,
Adoption of the Classification Plan:
Section 100, Definition and Adoption of Classification Plan, Subsection 103,
Adoption of the Classification Plan, was revised by adding the Mayor's position to
the list of managers, directors, and other positions who have an employee that
functions as their principal secretary regardless of grade and title, and to add Grant-
funded positions as at-will exceptions to the Classified Service (Municipal Civil
Service). At-will positions are: (1) not hired for a definite period of time; (2) have
no promises or guarantees made or inferred as to how long the City of Corpus
Christi will employ the incumbent; (3) allows for the incumbent to quit at any time
for any reason; and (4) for their employment to be terminated by the City of Corpus
Christi at any time for any reason.
Section 250, Classification Plan for All Positions in The Classified Service,
Subsection 251 through 257:
This Section was revised by deleting Subsections 251-257 for FY 2000-2001 and
replacing them with Subsections 251-257 for FY 2001-2002. Specific changes to
these Subsections are listed as Attachment II (a) at the end of this summary.
Page 4 of 7
Ordinance 8127:
That Ordinance 8127, as amended, Section 500, Definition and Adoption of the
Classification Plan, Subsection 501, Classified Salary Schedule
A 3% cost-of-living adjustment is calculated for the salary ranges of the Classified
Salary Schedule effective August 13, 2001, the first full pay period in FY 2001-
2002, as shown in Exhibit B.
Section 510, Managerial Group Pay Plan, be amended by adopting a revised
Managerial Group Pay Plan for FY 2001-2002:
A 3% cost-of-living adjustment is calculated for the salary ranges of the Managerial
Group Pay Plan effective August 13, 2001, the first full pay period in FY 2001-
2002, as shown in Exhibit C. The Managerial Group Pay Plan includes
housekeeping revisions for FY 2001-2002. Specific changes to this Section are listed
in Attachment II (b).
Section 520, Executive Pay Plan:
A 3% cost-of-living adjustment is calculated for the salary ranges of the Executive
Pay Plan effective August 13, 2001, the first full pay period in FY 2001-2002, as
shown in Exhibit D. The Executive Pay Plan includes housekeeping revisions for
FY 2001-2002. Specific changes to this Section are listed in Attachment II (c).
Section 700, Special Compensation Provisions, is revised by adding a new
Subsection 707.2, Eligibility to Participate as Retiree in City's Group Health
Insurance Program:
When any of the following conditions exist, a City employee will be eligible to
participate as a retiree in the City's Group Health Insurance Program at group rates:
(1) when eligible for retirement under requirements of the Texas Municipal
Retirement System (TMRS); (2) due to disability retirement; or (3) at age 60 upon
completion of a minimum of ten years of continuous service with the City of Corpus
Christi. An employee who terminates who does not meet these conditions will be
eligible for Group Health Insurance Program coverage under the Consolidated
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA), provided that the employee
meets the eligibility and other COBRA requirements under this federal law. Police
Page 5 of 7
and Fire personnel who are covered by Collective Bargaining Agreements, part-time
and temporary employees are excluded from this provision.
Section 700, Special Compensation Provisions, is revised by adding a new
Subsection 707.3, Funeral Expenses for Employees Who Sustain Fatal On-the-
Job Iniuries
This provision authorizes the City Manager, or designee, to approve up to $8,000 in
documented funeral expenses for City employees who sustain an on-the-job injury
and who subsequently dies from that injury. This Subsection does not apply to
Police and Fire personnel who are covered by collective bargaining agreements.
Section 700~ Special Compensation Provisions, is revised by adding a new
Subsection 708.4, Shift Differential Pay:
This Subsection provides additional compensation for City employees who hold jobs
that are scheduled for night work (outside core business hours), rotating, and/or
weekend shifts in order to insure 24-hour/7-days-per-week service due to operational
needs of the City of Corpus Christi. This provision is intended to improve employee
retention and recruitment for specific positions, such as Police/Fire Dispatchers,
Water and Wastewater Plant personnel, and Gas Department Leak Crew personnel
who are required to work shifts around the clock 7-days per week.
Section 700~ Special Compensation Provisions, is revised by adding a new
Subsection 714, Police and Fire Chiefs' Compensation:
This new provision will clearly delineate add-pays that are authorized to be paid to
the Police Chief and the Fire Chief under State Law, Chapter 143, to ensure that
both Chiefs receive comparable add-pays. These add-pays are in addition to base
pay.
Currently, the Police Chief receives Educational Incentive Pay that the Fire Chief
does not receive. This provision is proposed to specifically designate which add-
pays apply to the Police and Fire Chiefs and to ensure that both receive comparable
add-pays.
Page 6 of 7
Section 850, Personally-Owned Vehicle Allowance, Subsection 850.1, is revised
and a new Subsection 850.2 added:
This provision adds a new Subsection 850.2 that authorizes the City Manager to
establish a Car Allowance Policy for officers and employees assigned to the
Executive Pay Plan including Council-appointed positions. The car allowance for
Executive Pay Plan employees shall be based upon allowances for comparable
positions in the applicable job market, as well as upon expenses of travel in the city
and its extraterritorial jurisdiction. The car allowance for the Mayor and Council
Members shall be reasonably related to official city business and must be reasonable
in relation to expenses actually incurred or to be incurred in travel within the city
and its extraterritorial jurisdiction for meetings and other activities necessary or
desirable to enable them to best represent their constituents. This provision will not
apply to Police and Fire personnel covered by collective bargaining agreements. Car
allowances shall be within available budgeted funds.
This benefit is needed to make the City competitive when extending job offers to
applicants for executive-level positions. In a survey conducted in February 2001, by
the Human Resources Department, car allowances are routinely offered as a
negotiated executive-level benefit in lieu of providing a City Vehicle that, in some
cases, can be used for both personal and business purposes. Cities that include a car
allowance as part of their executive-level total compensation package include many
with whom the City competes in the labor market for well-qualified applicants for
executive positions, e.g. Austin, Beaumont, Arlington, Amarillo, Irving, Carrollton,
Lubbock, San Antonio, and Harlingen.

An Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances, City or Corpus Christi, Chapter 55, Utilities,
regarding Water, Wastewater, and Gas rates; providing for severance; providing an effective date;
providing for publication, and declaring an emergency.
ISSUE:
On June 25, 2000, Ordinance No. 024132 was approved providing for an increase of 2% for gas, and
no increases for water and wastewater for fiscal year 2000-01; and increases of 5% for water, and
5% for wastewater, and 2% for gas for the subsequent four fiscal years. Each year, staff updated the
debt model to insure rate recommendations met the financial requirements set forth in bond
covenants. This year, the City also contracted with DMG Maximus to update and consolidate the
debt capacity and utility cost of service model. The rates being recommended meet the requirements
of the bond covenants calculated through the new model.
The Ordinance before you today proposes a 2% increase for water, 2% increase for wastewater, and
2% for gas for fiscal year 2001-02; and increases of 6% for water, wastewater, and gas for
subsequent four fiscal years. The proposed increases are based on current expectations of
consumption, expenditures, and required capital spending. The Ordinance also proposes elimination
of security deposits for water and gas ($100 for customers with good credit history) and establishes
a policy to charge a security deposit should a customer's account go into arrears and become
delinquent; and creation of a service fee for "Same Day Service" for those customers wanting
immediate service and agreeing to the "Same Day Service" fee.
Staff will also amend the method of calculating the annual raw water charge versus the current
monthly fluctuating billing method which has created wide swings in the monthly charge.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approval of the proposed Ordinance providing for a five-year utility rate plan.
RECOMMENDATION: Staffrecommends that the City Council adopt the proposed Ordinance.

Ordinance
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Staff is proposing implementation of recommendations from the DMG Maximus rate study at this
time (reduction of water, wastewater, and gas increase for fiscal year 2001-2002 to 2% and a change
to the calculation of the raw water cost adjustment to an annual basis); and elimination of all security
deposits for water and gas; and creation of a service fee for "Same Day Service."
In December 2000, Council authorized DMG Maximus to perform a thorough study of the City's
utility rates and make recommendations. The purpose of the study was to provide Financial Services
Department guidance and provide recommendations for future rates and rate designs. DMG
specifically addressed the following points:
·
·
·
·
·
Identify key issues and water rate design constraints;
Determine cost of service for planning period 2002-2011;
Determine revenue shortfall that will be incurred if the Capital Improvement Program is fully
funded within the time frame desired by the departments within City Charter requirements;
Determine overall rate increases necessary if the Capital Improvement Program is funded
within the time frame desired by operating requirements; and
Provide a working financial model to confirm recommended changes in the rate structure to
cover bond requirements and capital needs of the City's Utility System.
The rote study is completed and the financial model has been delivered and is functioning. Staff is
working with DMG to streamline the model for efficiency. Staff is recommending implementation
of DMG's recommendations and will conduct a workshop to further review the DMG study and all
of its recommendations, future requirements of the City's Capital Improvement Projects, and the
results of the financial model.
One recommendation in the model indicates a 2% increase for water, 2% increase for wastewater,
and 2% increase for gas for fiscal year 2001-02. These proposed increases will provide a minimum
coverage of the Capital Improvement Project requirements; however, subsequent years will require
6% annual across-the-board increases under existing O & M and capital budget plans.
In November 1996, the City adopted, through Ordinance No. 022741, the raw water pass through.
By adoption of this Ordinance, water charges were separated into two components: cost of water
(untreated) and cost of water service. Because of inherent lags in billing, consumption, and
accounting data; water consumption in January is billed in February, but the rate is based on
November's actual cost. The rate is determined monthly by dividing the cost by a 12-month moving
average consumption. A "True-up" for over or under billing is done with a 3-month lag. Wide
fluctuations in consumption above and below the moving average are responsible for significant
fluctuation in the "True-up" adjustment and the raw water rate.
The second recommendation in the model is to evaluate the raw water cost adjustment annually
based on actual cost and consumption with an annual "True-up" implemented in the following year.
This would eliminate the wide fluctuations which adversely affect our customers and reduce the time
required by the Utility Office to change an extensive rate table monthly.
The City adopted Ordinance No. 021093 on March 5, 1991, Code of Ordinances, Section 55-25, to
create security of payment on new City utility services. Staff is proposing to eliminate these security
payments on new service. Refunds of security deposits currently are made after review of current
payment status. This process will remain unchanged for remaining security deposits.
Staff is proposing the creation of a service charge for "Same Day Service" and reconnection/
disconnection on water and gas based on non-payment of utilities. The recommended fee is $30.
Staff contacted other local entities and compared their fees to the proposed fee. Central, Power &
Light Company charges all customers a $20 account fee to set up new services; Southwestern Bell
Telephone Company charges a $38.35 account fee to set up new services; and Time Warner does
not have this fee. Other Texas cities charge this fee depending upon the time of day.
City Regular Hours Off Hours
San Antonio $10 $15
Austin $20 $30
Dallas $7.50 $15
E1 Paso $10 $15
Fort Worth $10 $20
Houston $10 $12.50
The amount of the recommended fee was determined after reviewing salaries of the servicemen and
the cost of operating vehicles. The $30 fee will adequately reimburse the City for this service and
will be at the customer's discretion.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
July 17, 2001
AGENDA ITEM: (Caption as it should appear on the agenda)
Ordinance amending sections 6-10, 6-18, 23-20 and 23-57 of the City Code of
Ordinances to increase the following annual fees: pet licenses from $10 to $15;
rodeo commemial animal permit fee from $50 to $200; sewage inspection fee f~om
$60 to $200; property swimming pool inspection free from $25 to $50; amending
section 6-25 of the City Code of Ordinances to create a new annual fee of $25 for
service of privately owned small animal traps; providing for severability; providing
for publication and providing an effective date.
ISSUE:
Pet Licenses for whole animals (not neutered or spayed) are $10 with a $3 charge
for neutered or spayed animals. Staff has researched other Texas cities and found
statewide, that whole animal licenses average $20 to $25. It is recommended that
the whole animal license be increased from $10 to $15. This increase would
encourage pet owners to spay or neuter their pets and help address the pet
overpopulation in our community.
The annual Buccaneer Days Rodeo is currently permitted as a commercial animal
event for a fee of $50. Because several animal control officers are required to work
split shifts to cover this multi-day event and meet City rodeo standard regulations,
it is recommended that permit fees be increased to offset a portion of these costs.
Staff recommends increasing the fee to $200.
The Environmental Health Program provides consultation, field investigation, design
plan review, inspection, and permitting of all septic systems, residential and
commercial in Nueces County. The current permit fee of $60, less $10 which goes
to the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission (TNRCC) for
administrative costs, does not cover the expense of providing the service. It is
proposed that sewage inspection fees be increased from $60 to $200 to be
consistent with TNRCC guidelines. Another service provided by Environmental
Health is annual swimming pool inspections. Inspectors also perform investigations
on citizen complaints, test for chlorine residual and general sanitary conditions and
permit. The current annual fee of $25 is recommended to be increased to $50 to
cover this service cost.
Finally, Animal Control provides field servicing of all animal traps, City owned and
privately owned, within the City of Corpus Christi. Trap owners that bring in their
own traps to Animal Control for release of the trapped animal are not charged.
Individuals that rent a trap from Animal Control for a $10 refundable deposit and $1
per day are not charged whether the renter bdngs the trap into Animal Control or has
the trap serviced in the field. Field servicing includes picking up the trapped animal
and resetting the trap. Due to the huge increase in number of traps to alleviate large
populations of opossums, feral cats, and various wildlife in newly developed areas
of the City, an animal fee of $25 per year is recommended to help defray the costs
of providing this service in the field for privately owned small animal traps.
Registration for the new service will be based on the calendar year with no charge
assessed from the effective date through December 31, 2001.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approval of the Ordinance changes.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends, upon the unanimous approval of the Animal Control Advisory
Committee that the Ordinance changes be approved.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Date: July 2001
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance amending Section 12-79(e) of the City of Corpus Chdsti Code of
Ordinances to increase the delinquent penalty charge for marina tenants; providing for
severance; and providing for publication.
ISSUE: The Parks and Recreation Department annually updates fees and provides a copy to the City
Manager annually for approval. The fees must bear a reasonable relation to current rental fees
charged for use of similar commercial facilities so as to neither be excessive or grossly deficient by
comparison. The delinquent penalty charge has not been adjusted since June 8, 1983. The current
charge of $3.00 is not of sufficient weight to be punitive enough to cause payment to be made on
time.
PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION: The City Council previously set the delinquent penalty charge at $3.00.
REQUIRED CONUCIL ACTION: The City Council must authorize any change in the Code of
Ordinances.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends City Council approve the submitted ordinance in order to
have marina slip payments be made in a timely manner.

BACKGROUNDINFORMATION
BACKGROUND:
According to the Code of Ordinances, Section 12-79(e), the Finance Department shall add a
delinquent penalty charge of $3.00 to each slip rental account which has not been paid prior to the
close of business on the fifteenth day of the month for which the slip rental is due. The Madna has
at times had accounts that were several months in arrears and the $3.00 penalty was not substantial
enough to force compliance with the slip contract terms. The Park and Recreation Department
recommends an increase in the delinquent penalty charge in line with what pdvate industry charges
for late payment. It is hoped that an increase to $50.00 will not require Councit action for a
significant time period.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
July 17, 2001
AGENDA ITEM: An Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances, City of Corpus Christi,
Chapter 2, Administration, regarding the Water Conservation Advisory Committee; providing for
severance; providing for publication; and declaring an emergency.
ISSUE: The ordinance which established the membership and duties of the Water Conservation
Advisory Committee requires revision. The ordinance currently in effect established the composition
of the committee to include a minimum of 15 members and not more than 32 members. This is too
large for effective interaction and direction.
The new ordinance would establish a nine member committee consisting of the following: a
residential customer of the city's water system (homeowner), a large commercial customer of the
city's water system, a wholesale raw or treated water customer of the city's regional water supply
system, a representative of the Port Industries of Corpus Christi, a representative ora school district
located within the City, a representative of a military facility, a representative of
landscaping/nursery/horticultural interest, a representative of apartment owners associafious, and a
citizen at large. The mayor, with the approval of the council, would appoint the members of the
advisory committee for two-year terms of office. The mayor may also appoint one or two council
members to serve as ex officio members of the committee.
In addition, the committee in the past has focused substantially on conservation related issues as its
name describes. In the future, staff would like the committee to advise the city council, city
manager, and water superintendent on water resource related issues. Therefore, staff recommends
that the Water Conservation Advisory Committee's name be changed to Water Resources Advisory
Committee.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the ordinance is required in order to change the
name and composition of the committee.
RECOMMENDATION: Staffrecommends approval of the ordinance.
