Mayor Neal called the meeting to order at 12:10 p.m. City Secretary Chapa checked the
roll and verified that there were quorums of both the Council and the Convention and Visitors
Bureau (CVB) Board of Directors.
CVB Chairman Bert Quintanilla called on Mr. Wayne Bennett, CEO of the CVB to
present the Fourth Quarter report and the 2002 Year End Review. Mr. Bennett reported that this
year marked the CVB's fifteenth anniversary. During the fourth quarter, several events of note
took place, including the grand opening of the renovated airport, the November election, and the
negotiations with the Ryans to bring minor league baseball to Corpus Christi. Mr. Bennett stated
that the city's partnership with the Ryans will probably prove to be beneficial on many fronts.
He reported that 2002 ended as a strong year. Mr. Bennett reviewed data comparing 2001 and
2002 hotel occupancy rates and concluded that Corpus Christi had outpaced most of its
competitors in 2002. For the first half of FY 2003, Mr. Bennett referred to a handout detailing
future conventions and bookings for 2004 in the arena and convention center. He said the
numbers reflect the success of the CVB's marketing campaign. Mr. Bennett said that for the first
six months of FY 2003, the CVB was below its convention sales goals, but would be working
toward meeting those goals. He also briefly discussed the board retreat. Topics discussed during
the board retreat included worldng with the arena and convention center expansion contractors to
ensure that they are informed of each others progress. The board also dete£r~iined that they
needed to strengthen their marketing campaign. Finally, the board discussed reaching out to the
hospitality worker to keep them informed of the changes taking place downtown. Since they are
front-line workers and deal directly with the public, it is important to keep them informed.
Mayor Neal commented that the Port of Corpus Christi has been very aggressive in building a
relationship with Toyota and he suggested that future marketing plans should include Toyota.
Mr. Bennett introduced Bill Pettns, who provided the quarterly marketing report. The
highlights included in an insert published in Texas Travel in April will also be included in
newspapers all over Texas. He also noted that Texas Monthly ran a 10-page "editorial"
regarding Corpus Christi visitors and tourism in April 2002 which was so successful that it is
going to run again this April. Mr. Pettus then mentioned some convention publications that were
funded by $100,000 that the Council had approved for them this fiscal year to market
conventions. He felt the additional funding would greatly help in promoting the city as a
convention destination. Next, Mr. Pettus discussed their spring program. In the past, the CVB
had created inserts that were published and distributed during one particular weekend that had
proven to be very effective. However, the marketing committee thought that this approach might
be too risky. Focusing on one weekend could be disastrous if the CVB picked the wrong
weekend - for example, if war was declared that particular weekend and tourism came to halt.
Instead, the marketing campaign would focus on local newspapers with more shorter deadlines
that would allow a quicker response. Finally, in response to a prior inquiry by Council Member
Kinnison, Mr. Pettus discussed the CVB's relationship with the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
and its accountability in that regard. He said that the CVB had made great strides in the last six
months, especially in the last quarter, to improve the relationship.
Mr. Quintauilla introduced Joe Cisneros, President of the Hispanic Chamber of
Commerce, who provided an update on the Hispanic Chamber's Northern Mexico marketing
campaign. Their research indicated that Corpus Christi is considered a family vacation
destination. Their campaign focused on identifying peak travel times when Mexicans come to
the United States (e.g. Christmas, back to school shopping) and then advertising during that time.
Mr. Cisneros said that they advertised in a social magazine called Sierra Madre which catered to
a upper-middle class Mexican demographic. They also advertised in Texas y Turismo, the
number one publication that is distributed as an insert in El Norte magazine. He said that the
Hispanic Chamber was striving to understand the Mexican market.
Mr. Quintanilla then introduced Carol Dunton with the CVB to provide information on
the Public Relations Activity report. Ms. Dunton reported that the city had received free
advertisement in the last quarter through national television exposure. Corpus Christi is going to
be featured in HGTV's Dream Drives show on March 15 and the show has approximately 80
million viewers per episode. The Travel Channel will be airing a program called Spring Break
Destinations 2003 that will include a segment on Corpus Christi. It will air on various dates in
March and April, with an approximate viewership of 67 million viewers per episode. The Food
Network's $40 a Day program will be doing a feature on Corpus Christi and their viewership is
approximately 77 million viewers per episode. Finally, the Fine Living Network is airing a
program called Found in American which will include a brief segment focusing on the U.S.S.
Lexington and their viewership is approximately 30 million viewers.
There being no other business, the meeting was adjourned at 1:05 p.m.

Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 12, naming of tennis center courts. Mr. Dan
Whitworth, Director of Park and Recreation, said this project has been in the works for several
years and is the result of funds from the Sessions estate and bond funds. Mr. Steven Denton,
tennis pro at the HEB Tennis Center, said that next week two French Open doubles champions
will be on hand to celebrate the opening of the new facility.
Council Member Longoria congratulated Mr. Denton and asked Mr. Whitworth if the
Parks Board has reviewed the proposed name change. Mr. Whitworth said the board met last
week and approved the name change. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for their votes:
12. RESOLUTION NO. 025207
Resolution naming the covered courts at H.E.B. Tennis Center located at 1520 West
Sbely the "Mildred and Lloyd Sessions Tennis Pavilion"; waiving the requirements of a

of action by the Park and Recreation Advisory Committee.
The foregoing resolution passed by the following vote: Neal, Chesney, Colmenero,
Garrett, Kelly, Longoria, Noyola, and Scott voting "Aye"; Kinnison absent.
Mayor Neal referred to Item 13 regarding options for amendments to the Corpus Christi
City Charter. Acting City Manager Noe explained that this item was placed on the agenda at the
Council's request following a previous discussion about this issue. He said this is the last date
the Council can take action regarding the April 5, 2003 election. Acting City Attorney Reining
also distributed to the Council a copy of the ballot language for each of the various options listed
in the agenda material.
Responding to Mayor Neal, City Secretary Chapa said some of these items are basically
"housekeeping" items that can be considered by the Council now or later; however, he feels they
should be addressed at some point. He said there is also an amendment being proposed by Mr.
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
February 18, 2003 -Page 6
John Bell, a local attorney, regarding election dates. Mr. Chapa said that in the future, problems
will arise regarding either election day or the date of a runoff election when it conflicts with
Easter weekend. He said the proposal gives the Council the option of changing that date if such a
conflict occurs. Mr. Reining said the City Attorney's Office supports the proposed change to the
time for effectuating a lease or franchise.
In reply to another question from the Mayor, Mr. Chapa said if any of these options are
placed on the ballot in April 2003 and they pass, the charter cannot be amended until beyond
April 2005 (probably November 2005). Mr. Noe said that in the past the city's election date has
fallen on Easter weekend and voter turnout was not adversely affected.
Council Member Colraenero asked about the proposal regarding the runoff election date.
Mr. Chapa said that currently there are only two weeks between the general election and the
runoffelection and he is requesting additional time between them.
Council Member Kinnison read from the Austin City Charter regarding a city auditor
who is appointed by the City Council and who can be removed only by a majority of that body.
He said the auditor reports to the Council through an audit committee of the Council. He also
read the auditor's duties. Mr. ginnison said he thinks the Corpus Christi City Council should
consider reinstating the city auditor position.
Council Member Longoria said he thinks any amendments to the charter should be
discussed at length prior to the election. Mr. Kinnison agreed, saying that the issue he is
proposing needs a lot of lead-time for discussion and November 2005 may be a more appropriate
time to consider it. There were no comments from the audience.
Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 14, Bay~ont Convention Center expansion and
rehabilitation project. City Secretary Chapa said that Council Member Kelly would be abstaining
on this item. Mr. Kevin Stowers, Assistant Director of Engineering Services, said that previously
the guaranteed maximum price had been set at $25 million. He said they went through the
subcontractor bid process and the price came in at $24,614,045.
Council Member Garrett asked if this process will minimize the possibility of change
orders. Mr. Stowcrs said the fact that the convention center is an existing building does pose a
greater risk of change orders than the new arena. However, he said the convention center has
good plan documents and the contractor feels there will be far less change orders on this project
than would normally be the case. Mr. Noe said there is a separate allowance for such issues.
Responding to Council Member Kinnison, Mr. Noe said the city is adequately covered
for contingencies. Council Member Colmenem said that change orders can enhance a facility.
There were no comments from the audience. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council:

Mayor Neai announced the executive sessions, which were listed on the agenda as:
Executive session pursuant to Texas Government Code Section 551.071 regarding a
health insurance claim the City asked Entrust to adjudicate on October 18, 2002,
underlying coverage issues, and legal issues associated with the City's health insurance
plans, with possible discussion and action related thereto in open session.
Executive session pursuant to Texas Government Code Sections 551.071 and 551.072
regarding the Landry's Project in the Corpus Christi Marina, with possible discussion and
action related thereto in open session.
Executive session pursuant to Texas Government Code Sections 551.071, 551.072 and
551.087 regarding the South Wharf Project in the Corpus Christi Marina, with possible
discussion and action related thereto in open session.
The Council went into executive session. The Council returned from executive session.
Mayor Neal called for petitions from the audience.
Mx. Jack Gordy, 4118 Bray, said the state has not collected a fee for tire disposal for three
years and he also discussed battery core charges. He said city employees should be allowed to
participate in city elections. Council Member Scott said he supports city employees. Council
Member Kinnison asked whether city employees can attend any candidate forums and Mr.
Reining said they can attend.
Mx. Phil Rosenstein discussed the emergency home repair program for senior citizens,
which is funded by a CDBG grant. He said presently there are over 200 seniors on a waiting list
for emergency home repairs and the average waiting time is six months to one year.
Mayor Neal said the Council would go back into executive session pursuant to Texas
Govermnent Code Sections 551.071, 551.072 and 551.087 on agenda items 16 and 17. The
Council went into executive session. The Council returned from executive session.
Mayor Neal called for the City Manager's report. Acting City Manager Nee said the
stakeholders' meeting for the Mustang/Padre Island plan will be held February 20, 2003 at the
Holiday Inn on the island. He also discussed items scheduled for the February 25th meeting and
noted that the Council will hold meetings on March 4' and March 11' but not March 18th.
Mayor Neal called for Council concerns and reports.
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
February 18, 2003 - Page 8
Mr. Colmenero refen-ed to a letter regarding food and beverage catering. He also said he
wished to make a motion to reexamine the streetacape design to also include the Arts and
Cultural Commission (ACC), to continue with the seawall reconstruction, and to have staff assist
in the process. City Secretary Chapa said the Council approved the seascape design last week;
consequently, in order to reconsider it someone from the prevailing side has to make a motion to
reconsider and the motion has to be seconded and passed by a two-thirds vote of the Council.
Mr. Colmenero then made a motion to reconsider motion number M2003-062 (Item 29
from the February 11, 2003 meeting). The motion to reconsider was seconded by Mr. Scott, who
said he wants to ensure that the public participates in this process. Mr. Longoria said he is
concerned about infringement into the seawall. Mr. Chapa polled the Council for their votes on
the motion to reconsider and it passed as follows: Neal, Colmenero, Garrett, Kelly, Kinnison,
Longoria, Noyola and Scott voting "Aye"; Chesney absent.
Mr. Colmenero said he believes the streetscape design should consider any impedance
into the seawall while also keeping the framework open for the ACC. Mr. Kinnison asked if
sending the design back to the ACC in effect rejects the present proposed design. Mr. Scott said
he will be more receptive to the current design if the ACC goes through an adequate public
process and they reiterate their recommendation. Mayor Neai agreed that a public hearing is
needed to consider this design. Mr. Kinnison said the end result is that the ACC will still have to
come back to the Council with a recommendation at the end of the process.
Responding to a question from Mr. Kinnison, Mr. Chuck Anastos, ACC Chairman, said
the streetscape structure was designed with a cocked top, which was angled to provide shade
from the afternoon sun. He said it is set in such a way that it cannot be moved closer to the curb
without encroaching into the roadway. He said he cannot speak for the commission but they
spent hundreds of hours on selecting this design. Mr. Anastos also pointed out that the funds for
this project came from the Permanent Art Trust Fund and if this design is unacceptable, he asked
that the monies be used instead for art. He said the ACC is willing to start over again but they
want the full opportunity to do so.
Mr. Kinnison noted that part of the funding comes from the 1/8t~ cent sales tax and he
asked whether the location of the art would be limited to the seawall area. Mr. Reining said he
will have to research that question and provide an answer.
Mayor Neal said the major complaint he hears is that there are no shade s~ructures on the
seawall and he thought the Council gave direction that they wanted something to enhance
pedestrian use of the seawall and to provide shade.
Mr. Chapa said the motion on the table for the Council's consideration is to accept the
design for the seawall streetscape. He said the Council can amend it or deny it and come back
with a separate motion.
Mr. Scott said he does not believe the public has had an opportunity to participate in this
process. Mr. Longoria said the issue is whether it is appropriate to block part of the seawall. Mr.
Scott made the following motion, which was seconded by Mr. Cohnenero:
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
February 18, 2003 -Page 9
20.a. M2003-070
Motion to table the design for the seawall streetseape until March 25, 2003 to refer to the
Arts and Cultural Commission to allow for public comment.
The foregoing motion passed by the following vote: Neal, Colmenero, Garrett, Kelly,
Kinnison, Noyola, and Scott voting "Aye"; Longoria voting "No"; Chesney absent.
Mayor Neal returned to Council concerns and reports.
Mr. Kelly said the current homebuyer assistance program seems to be emphasizing the
purchase of new homes. He said he has asked city staff to refocus the city's program from new
homes to existing homes, many of which are located in the west side and older neighborhoods.
He said he also wants to promote home ownership among city employees and increase the
amount of owner-occupancy in neighborhoods. He said ultimately he would like to reach out to
school and church officials who would know which families would be good candidates for this
program. He said more details about the program will be brought to the Council. Mr. Noe said
this will be a new program in addition to the city's existing program.
Mr. Scott asked why the police were not more prepared when a suspect ran through a
checkpoint and the vehicle was later found abandoned along with the bodies of two victims. Mr.
Noe said staff would provide a response. Mr. Scott complimented those involved with the
organization of the Packery Channel meeting on the island, and he said the development
community is supportive of the city's proactive stance regarding development issues. He also
announced a town hall meeting on March l0th at Padre Island Presbyterian Church.
Mr. Longoria said he thought there was an ordinance prohibiting car lots from flying
balloons and he also referred to the process of awarding monies through the Corpus Christi
Community Improvement Corporation.
Mr. Kinnison asked if there is a process to review the sign ordinance regulations and Mr.
Michael Gunning, Director of Planning, said he is exploring the rewriting of the development
code. Mr. Kinnison said he does not want Saratoga Boulevard to be deluged with signs in the
same way as South Padre Island Drive.
Mayor Neal said a number of people on radio talk shows have started a rumor about his
participation and his company's participation in the city's health insurance program. He said
neither he nor his company have ever had any connection with the city's health insurance
program. He said while he carries the title of chairman of the board of Hilb, Rogal & Hamilton,
he is in effect a commission sales person and he receives no direct compensation from HRH on
anything with which he is not directly involved. He also discussed a conflict of interest opinion
given by former City Attorney James Bray in 1999. The Mayor said he does not do any business
with the city, the Port of Corpus Christi Authority or Nueces County. He said he hopes this
statement dispels any such rumors. Mr. Scott said he believes the Mayor has continued to do the
right thing to the best of his ability and he appreciates his tenure as mayor.
There being no further business to come before the Council, Mayor Neal adjourned the
Council meeting at 7:38 p.m. on February 18, 2003.

PROJECT BACKGROUND: Three (3) major ductile iron force mains, totaling
approximately 19,750 lineal feet, transport wastewater to the Oso Wastewater Treatment
Plant. Due to age and effects of corrosive gasses, these lines have experienced breaks
and have been inspected for replacement. The locations of the three (3) major ductile iron
force mains are as follows:
· Line A- between Hardwick Drive and the Oso Wastewater Treatment
Plant;
· Line B - between the Wooldridge Lift Station and Hardwick Drive; and
· Line C - between Everhart Road Lift Station and Staples Street Lift Station
No. 5.
The firm of Goldston Engineering, Inc. was retained, through a Request for Proposals
process, to provide engineering services for repairing/replacing the force mains. The
engineering work has been carried out in two (2) stages:
Statue 1 - Implementation Plan - This phase included inspecting, testing, and
evaluating the condition of the force mains; developing and proposing
rehabilitation methods; preparing present-value cost benefit analysis and cost
estimates for each method; and submitting a report with recommendations to the
City.
Sta.qe 2 - Desif~n/Construction - This phase included preparing plans,
specif'mafions, bid and contract documents, and contract administrations services
as needed to repair and replace the force mains.
This project will be completed in phases as funding allows. The repair and replacement of
Line "B", is the first to be completed as it has experienced extensive breaks and excessive
deterioration from hydrogen sulfide gas. Further deterioration in Lines "A" and "C" will be
closely monitored and repaired as necessary. Completion of the proposed project will
provide complete replacement with a less susceptible material for reliable wastewater
service within the service area.
CHANGE ORDER DESCRIPTION: The project scope required rehabilitation of the two
parallel 36" ductile iron sanitary sewer lines extending 100 feet from the vault on the south
side of Wooldridge road to the Wooldridge Lift Station. Rehabilitation was to be
accomplished by slip lining the existing lines with new 30" fiberglass reinforced pipe
(Hobas). However, once the existing lines were cleaned and televised, it was determined
that the lines were deflected up to 18", which will prevent slip lining from proceeding.
A review of alternative rehabilitation procedures was performed by the design engineer,
Goldston Engineering, Inc. Rehabilitation utilizing Cured-in-Place Pipe (ClPP)would cost
$175,000 and would take several weeks to complete due to material availability, extending
the closure period for Wooldridge Road. Limited right-of-way south of the vault prevents
slip lining utilizing more flexible high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe. Goldston
Engineering has determined that the most cost-effective and expedient alternative is to
excavate and replace the existing lines, utilizing the 30" Hobas pipe already on-site.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
ArchitecTKO, on behalf of Nueces County Appraisal District, has requested a Use Privilege
Agreement (UPA) from the City to install a raised concrete front entry approximately 5'-0" in
width x 25'-0" in length x 4'-7" in height, within public right-of-way (sidewalk area) in front to the
building located at 201 N. Chaparral Street. The raised front entry wil consist of of a handicap
ramp and entry steps within City public right-of-way. (See Exhibit B1, Site Location Map).
Site & Entrance Plan and Raised Front Entry Section, shows the plan and profile view of the
proposed entry (See Exhibits B2, B3, & B4)
ProposedRaised Concrete Front Entry. Presently the existing door is at sidewalk level, which
allows the floodwaters to enter the entry vestibule everytime there is heavy rains. The raised
concrete front entry would be designed to control the floodwaters by raising the vestbule floor
level to match the existing finish floor, therefore prohibiting the floodwaters to enter the building.
The current floor level of the building is 13-inches above the sidewalk.
The raised front entry, will extend approximately 5'-0" in width x 25'-0" in length x 4'-7" in height
occupying approximately 125-square feet of public right-of-way (sidewalk area).
The Nueces County Appraisal District, will own the raised front entry and all improvements, and will
be held solely responsible for all operation, maintenance, and removal of the improvements. An
Engineering Permit will be required for any future repairs to the raised front entry, described in
this Use Privilege Agreement.
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,. Owner has
been advised and concurs with all the conditions of the Use Privilege Agreement.
A one time fee of ~ has been established, but is recommended to be waived in
consideration of the assistance the Appraisal District provides at no cost to the City of Corpus
Christi on a regular basis.

FUTURE COUNCIL ACTION: Award of remaining construction contracts to complete
Bond Issue 2000 projects.
PROJECT BACKGROUND: On Tuesday, November 7, 2000, the City of Corpus Christi
held an election to consider a number of ballot propositions 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.
Funds collected from bond sales are invested in interest beadng securities. These funds
accumulate interest reserves which cannot be spent until appropriated by City Council. At
this time it has become necessary to appropriate interest balances to complete or enhance
voter-approved Bond Issue 2000 projects. Additional proposed work will include:
A. Repairs to the museum ceiling necessary to correct gaps and complete
compliance of Fire Code Requirements for the Fire Suppression system;
B. Additional youth sports field lighting within each approved park, and other
selected park improvements to voter-approved parks.
C. Supplement the budget for the construction of the fire and police training facility
and increase the scope of the Animal Shelter and Vector Control Facility; and
D, Cover anticipated shortfalls in street projects due to increased cost of asphalt
and fuel.

AGENDA ITEM:
Ordinance Amending the Code of Ordinances Chapter 53 - Traffic, Section 53-84,
Project Eligibility Requirements and Design Standards, by Adding Discretionary
Language to the Guidelines for Location of Traffic Calming Devices; Providing for
Severance; and Providing for Publication.
ISSUE: The ordinance as drafted requires the city traffic engineer to consider and
comply with several factors in the location of speed humps. These factors have
resulted in the inability to place the number of eligible speed humps on certain streets
and in one or two cases prevented any speed humps from being installed.
FUNDING: The ordinance amendment requires no expenditure of funds.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
SUBJECT: Location of Traffic Calming Devices - Ordinance Amendment
PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION:
April 29, 1998 - Ordinance authorizing the installation of residential traffic calming
devices, establishing eligibility requirements, project prioritization, citizen cost
participation, design requirements and study processes (Ord. # 023289).
July 23, 2002 - Ordinance Adopting the FY 2002 - 2003 Annual Budget which
provided funding for the operation of the residential traffic calming program (Ord. #
024974).
BACKGROUND:
The ordinance is very specific in its language governing the placement of speed humps.
This has made the placement of speed humps difficult on certain streets. The ordinance
presently mandates that speed humps:
· Cannot be located in front of a driveway or within 100 feet of an intersection;
· The first speed hump in a series must be installed downstream within 200 feet of a stop
sign;
· Cannot be located over, or contain manholes or be adjacent to fire hydrants or
driveways;
· Must be located downstream of drainage inlets or have special treatment;
· Be located on property lines rather than directly in front of a residence; and
· The property owner must concur with the placement adjoining his/her property.
These factors have resulted in the number of speed humps actually installed being less the
number for which certain streets were otherwise eligible. Staff has also had occasional
difficulty identifying locations on a street that meet the criteria.
APPEAL:
The proposed amendment is the result of a 2002 appeal of the decision to allow only one
speed hump on Gold Ridge Drive. During the course of the required traffic study, it was
determined that the ordinance precluded installation on Gold Ridge Drive, with the
exception of one location. The ordinance also requires the concurrence of the adjoining
property owner prior to installation. The City Legal Department determined that the
ordinance did not permit staff discretion in the placement of speed humps.
This resulted in an appeal to the Transportation Advisory Committee on August 26, 2002.
IExhbitA 1
Page 1 of 2
H:\HOME\KEVlNS\GEN\TrafficEngr~Ord-TrfCalmAgendaBkgExhA.doc
The Transportation Advisory Committee granted the appeal allowing two speed humps to
be placed on Gold Ridge Drive. The Committee asked if this would set precedence for
future similar cases. As the ordinance would continue to prohibit staff from using
discretion, the Committee directed staff to develop a proposed amendment that would give
staff discretion in the placement of speed humps.
TRAFFIC ADVISORY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The proposed amendment was present to the Transportation Advisory Committee on
January 27, 2002. The Transportation Advisory Committee endorsed the proposed
amendment giving the Traffic Engineer discretion to make adjustments.

each case.
1. Speed hump will not be located in fi'ont ora driveway or within
an intersection. Speed humps will not be located within one
hundred (100) feet of an intersection.
2. The first hump in a series should be installed within
approximately two hundred (200) feet downstream of a stop
sign.
3. Speed humps will not be located over, or contain, manholes or
be located adjacent to fire hydrants or driveways.
4. For humps located near drainage inlets, the hump will be

roadway users of a speed hump's presence and to guide their
subsequent action. Traffic signs and pavement markings shall
conform to the Texas Manual of Uniform Traffic Control and

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
City Council Action Date: March 4. 2003
AGENDA ITEM:
Item A: Motion to amend prior to second reading to reflect the Speed Limit Change.
On Saratoga Boulevard, (S.I-L 357): revising the existing speed limits to the following:
55 mph from Old Brownsville Road (F.M. 665) to the southbound frontage road
of the Crosstown Expressway (S.H. 286).
50 mph to 45 mph from the southbound frontage road of the Crosstown
Expressway (S.H. 286) to Rodd Field Road (S.H. 357) except that portion where
school zone flashers are displayed indicating 30 mph.
On Rodd Field Road, (S.R 357): revising the existing speed limits to the following:
55 mph to 45 mph from Holly Road to the centerline of Saratoga Boulevard (S.H.
357).
Item B:
On Saratoga Boulevard, ( S.H. 357): revising the existing speed limits to the following:
55 mph from Old Brownsville Road (F.M. 665) to Ayers SU'eet (S.H. 286).
50 mph to 45 mph from Ayem Street (S.H. 286) to Rodd Field Road (S.I-[ 357)
except that portion where school zone flashers are displayed indicating 30 mph.
On Rodd Fireld Road (S. I4_ 357): revising the existin~ speed limits to the following:
55 mph from Holly Road to the centerline of Saratoga Boulevard (S.H. 357).
ISSUE: Speed Limit Revisions are necessary to reflect changes in abutting land use and travel
patterns. The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) recently completed a traffic
engineering study to review the speed limit on Saratoga Blvd. The Limits extend from Old
Brownsville Road (F.IV[ 665) to Rodd Field Road to South Padre Island Drive. Based on this study,
TxE~T determined that a change in the speed limit is warranted within State Right of Way located
within City Limits of the City of Corpus Christi.
