Mayor Garrett called the retreat to order in the Watergarden Room of the Museum of Science
and History.
City Secretary Chapa checked the roll and verified that the necessary quorum of the Council
and the required charter officers were present to conduct the meeting.
City Manager Noe stated that staff would provide background information that might be
useful to the Council during their goal setting session in the latter part of the meeting. The scheduled
reports were as follows: an overview of the FY 2006-07 Forecast and Budget; a CIP budget update;
updates on the Bond 2000 and Bond 2004 programs; a status report on the 2005 Strategic Issues set
by the City Council; and a presentation on the 2006 Hurricane Preparedness and NIMS briefing.
*(i\,fr Marez arrived at 9:05 a.m)
The first presentation was an overview of the FY 2006-07 Forecast and Budget presented by
\ssistant City Manager Oscar Martinez. He said the presentation would focus on the General Fund
and Enterprise Funds only, using a "five-by-five" approach studying the following criteria: opening
halance, total revenues, total expenditures, net gain/loss, and closing balance.
Mr. Martinez discussed the major issues affecting the Enterprise fund, comprised of the
Water, Wastewater, Gas, Airport, Golf, and Marina funds. He also provided five-year projections
based on historical trends for each fund. Of all the Enterprise funds, he said the Gas, Golf, and
Marina funds presented the most challenges.
Regarding the Gas fund, Mr. Martinez stated that over the last five years, Gas revenues had
rISen at an annual average 01'0.41 percent while expenditures had risen at an annual average of3.37
percent. He said this trend underscored the need for a rate structure analysis because the city was
not recovering the base COS1 for gas.
Mr. Kinnison spoke in favor of privatizing the city's Gas operations. City Manager Noe
replied that staff could look into it. but noted that it would be difficult to compete in the market
Minutes - Council Retreat
May 2, 2006 - Page 2
because industrial customers were able to dictate more favorable terms with their direct suppliers.
Mr. Noe felt the issue was to encourage more and better gas usage by consumers. Mayor Garrett
asked staff to revisit the idea of privatizing the city's Gas operations, and asked for a report in 60
days presenting the city's options. Mr Garcia felt that the city was not aggressively marketing gas
IJsage in the community, especially with new homebuilders. He felt more marketing could increase
gas consumption and subsequent revenues, eliminating the need to privatize.
Regarding the Airport fund, Mayor Garrett asked for a status report on international flights.
Director of Aviation Dave Hamrick stated that the city had signed an agreement with a Mexican
carrier to begin service to Monterrey, Mexico by Thanksgiving 2005. Since that time, he said staffs
communication with them had been difficult at best. The last time they spoke, he said the carrier
planned to begin service in July. He assured the Council that the city was not expending any funds
on the contract now. In the interim, Mr. Hamrick stated that he was speaking with two other
Mexican airlines and a U.S airline with service to Mexico regarding international flights.
Mr. Scott asked what the primary challenge was to obtaining international flights out of the
city's airport; he was concerned that the airport did not have the resources it needed to attract
business. Mr. Hamrick replied that the major challenge was that the city could not provide
quantifiable data detining the city's potential travel market to Monterrey. City Manager Noe stated
that marketing efforts were also a key component, so the CVB and the Chambers of Commerce were
Important contributors to the success of the project. The Council expressed their commitment to
obtaining International night service out of the city's airport. Mr. Scott stated that he felt the airport
staff was doing its utmost to obtain the services; if staff felt they needed more resources, he asked
them to let the Council know.
Regarding the Gol f fund, Mr. Martinez stated that over the past five years, revenues had
Incurred an annual average decrease of 0.26 percent while expenditures had experienced a 0.69
percent Increase per year. lie said the tinancial viability of the Golf fund continued to be a concern.
He said steps were taken in FY 2006 to reduce operating costs, but capital improvements to the two
golf courses may cause future decrease in revenue generating capacity. Director of Parks and
Recreation Sally Gavlik and Superintendent Ronnie Sepulveda answered the Council's questions
regarding the rates for play. and staff s efforts to make the operation more efficient. City Manager
Noe added that the city retained an outside consultant to analyze golf operation. Based on their
recommendation. staff cut the number of permanent, benefitted employees to reduce costs. He said
a total of seven full-time employees were transferred to other departments, saving $68,000.
With regard to the Marina fund, Mr. Martinez stated that over the past five years, the fund
had incurred an annual a\ erage increase in revenues of 6.08 percent. During the same period,
expenditures had increased by an annual average of9.47 percent. He noted that the planned capital
expansion of the slip rental space would create a potential temporary decline in revenue generating
capacity He said corrective action was currently being considered to protect the Marina fund's
financial condition.
Marilla Superintendent Peter Davidson provided an update on the marina improvements. He
said within the tirst six months, the new boat slips would generate an additional $100,000 to
$125,000 In FY 2007. Staff anticipated that the new boat slips would be completed by November
Minutes -- Council Retreat
May 2,2006 - Page 3
2006, and the slips would be rented in early 2007.
Mr. Davidson stated that the Marina fund revenues were down this year for two primary
reasons - the Yacht Club's decision not to renew their lease ($30,000 loss) and the dramatic decrease
in the number of shrimp boats. Council members expressed concern that the Yacht Club was
denying the city access to a number of the boat slips they had returned to the city. City Manager Noe
stated that staff would address the access issues.
Mayor Garrett asked for an update on liveaboards. Mr. Davidson stated that the Water Shore
Advisory Committee had approved a proposed ordinance allowing and regulating liveaboards at the
marina. He said staff would bring the proposed ordinance to the Council at an upcoming meeting
for their consideration. He stated that the marina could sustain 58 liveaboards who would generate
approximately $300.000 in revenues.
Mr. Martinez discussed the status of the General Fund. He said adjusted revenues had
increased by an annual average of 3.5 percent while the adjusted expenditures had increased by an
annual average of 3.74 percent. He noted that approximately 51 percent of the adjusted General
Fund revenues were based on highly elastic revenue sources (ad valorem / sales taxes). Mr. Scott
stated that every staff decision should be focused on increasing the city's revenues. Mr. Scott and
Mr. Garcia also advocated reallocating the incentive monies for the bowlers convention to promote
more tourism. In summary, Mr. Martinez stated that the overall condition of the General and
Enterprise fUnds was good
[he second presentation was an update on the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget
by Mr. Martinez. He covered the FY 05-06 CIP funding sources and CIP funding uses. He
discussed the current status of the Commercial Paper and Utility Revenue Bond programs. He
reviewed reasons for the lack of sufficient Commercial Paper to complete all scheduled utility and
bond projects. He discussed the recommended projects and action steps through the end of the
current vear. Finally, he provided a FY 2007 CIP update.
*(Ms. ('ooper arrived at 1 i .()() a. m)
The third presentation was a Bond 2000 program update by City Engineer Angel Escobar.
Mr. Escobar reviewed the complete bond project list for the public health and safety, park and
recreation, museum, and street improvements categories. He reported the vast majority of the
projects were completed, with a number of exceptions that he briefly reviewed. Mr. Escobar then
responded to Council member questions.
Mr. Escobar reported on the Bond 2004 schedule. He covered two project timelines, a
neighborhood candidate street map, and the $95,000 bond proposition package approved by the
voters. The first project timeline was for street improvements, saying that the objective was to
complete or have the projects under contract by November 2008. The second project timeline for
the Public Health & Safety. Public Facilities, Parks and Recreation, and Bayfront projects. Staff then
responded to questions by Council members.
[he third presentation was a series of updates on the status of the 2005 City Council strategic

Issues as t(Jl1ows: Downtown; lob growth! Attraction; Infrastructure; Neighborhoods; Budget/Finance
Processes and Policies, and Intergovernmental Relations. Assistant City Manager Oscar Martinez
made a brief presentation on the Downtown issue. Mr. Garcia expressed concern about the vacant
building ordinance enforcement. Mr. Marez expressed concern that the Downtown Redevelopment
C'ommittee was moving too quickly. and he feared that they were going to bum out. Mr. Martinez
replied that he would ask the committee and Director of Economic Development Irma Caballero to
slow down the pace. Council members also asked questions about the D-Town and SEA-town
mitiatives. the TRT negotiations timeline. and downtown property values. Based on the Council's
comments. Mr. Noe added "code enforcement" to the list of issues under the Downtown strategic
issue category.
City Manager Noe made a brief presentation on the city's efforts regarding Job
Growth/Attraction. Ms. Cooper expressed concern about the lack of national media coverage
regarding the city's Wi-Fi initiative achievements. Mr. Noe stated that staff planned to allocate
funds to enhance the marketing efforts. but noted that the city might have to hire a consulting firm
to truly enhance the city's Wi-Fi press coverage. Mr. Kinnison pointed out that once the city entered
mto a partnership with an ISP, it could ask the ISP to fund the media campaign.
Assistant City Manager Ron Massey made a brief presentation on the status of the

outgrow its current location on the island. He suggested that the city offer assistance in finding
alternative sites for facilities. He also stated that Mustang and Padre Island corridors were attracting
condo and other developments, and he said it was time that the city increased its market efforts to
encourage more tourism in these areas.
City Manager N oe referred to a detailed list of the Council's strategic issues, and asked if

promote tourism. City Manager Noe placed these concerns under the Job Growth/Attraction issue.

The City Council toured the J.C. Elliott and Cefe Valenzuela landfill sites immediately
after the May 9, 2006 Council meeting. Director of Solid Waste Services Jeff Kaplan and
Assistant Director of Solid Waste Services Lawrence Mikolajczyk led the bus tour.
Mr. Kaplan provided a status report on Solid Waste Services in general. He displayed
charts depicting the percent changes in key factors (e.g. fuel, customers, and routes) affecting
solid waste, brush, and recycling collections from FY 2001 to FY 2005.
Regarding the J.C. Elliott landfill, Mr. Kaplan discussed plans for the citizen's collection
center, commercial transfer station and the consolidation of field operations. He said the Elliott
transfer station component would serve small commercial haulers and city collection vehicles.
The Elliott citizen's collection center would make disposal of brush, trash, hazardous household
waste, and tires more convenient for residents, minimizing illegal dumping. Additionally, he said
the citizen's collection center would eliminate the need for residents to take waste directly to the
Cefe landfill's work area, which posed a safety hazard.
Regarding the Cefe Valenzuela landfill, Mr. Kaplan stated that the landfill construction
was scheduled for completion in late 2006. He said the construction of the landfill cell was
complete, and could be available to receive waste prior to construction completion, pending
TCEQ authorization, in the event of a hurricane. In addition, he said the landfill site included
offsite drainage improvements under FM 70 that would benefit area residents. He said the Cefe
landfill had a site life of approximately 86 years, and the disposal capacity at full development
would be 67 million tons of solid waste. Finally, Mr. Kaplan said communications to the Cefe
landfill would be provided by a wireless system with a primary feed from the City Service Center
and a backup feed from the city's airport. Staff then responded to the Council's questions. The
bus tour ended at 3:30 p.m on May 9,2006.

Mayor Garrett called for the City Manager's report. City Manager Noe reported that
hazardous household waste would be accepted at the J.C. Elliott landfill from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. this
Saturday. He said the World of Water Celebration would also take place this Saturday from 9 a.m.
to 2 p.m. at the Museum of Science and History.
Mr. Noe stated that the following items were scheduled for consideration at next week's
Council meeting: landfill projects; temporary services contract; and three zoning cases, including
the Chili Pepper Properties case.
Mayor Garrett asked if the city had encountered any problems with littering after the Buc
Days parade. Mr. Noe replied city staff used the same process they had used last year, namely
code enforcement officers were present on the parade route, and trash bags were distributed on
the route as well. Assistant City Manager Ron Massey replied that staff had seen a gradual
improvement, but the heavily trafficked areas along Leopard Street and Buc Stadium were still
littered
Mayor Garrett stated that the Velocity Games organizers had asked permission to place a
40 x 12 banner on top of the coliseum Mr. Noe stated that staff would speak with them to see if it
could be arranged
Mayor Garrett called for Council concerns and reports. Mr. Garcia stated that in a recent
City Manager's transmittal packet, staff had provided timelines for the storm water and wastewater
master plans. He stated that there appeared to be issues with upstream and downstream flow
related to the storm water plan. If the city was planning to implement subdivisions and laying storm
water systems, he asked if the developer was responsible for addressing problems upstream or
downstream. Mr. Noe said the master plan would establish who was responsible for the actual
improvements. Mr. Garcia emphasized that the public should have the opportunity to comment on
the proposed storm water and wastewater master plans. Mr. Noe replied that the Council and the
public would be given ample opportunities to comment on the plans.
Mr. Garcia referred to the first quarter platting report submitted by Development Services,
and said that the number of lots and acreage in subdivisions that were on line to come on had not
come on yet. He said the unusually high numbers in the report struck him. City Manager Noe
replied that the Planning Commission had reviewed the platting report; he said staff would look into
It
Mr Garcia asked staff to discuss the impact of Carole Keeton Strayhorn's letter regarding
the renewal community program. Assistant City Manager Oscar Garcia said the Governor had
approved the extension of a special program for economic development and tax credits to certain
areas in the renewal community. He said the areas were being expanded to the school district as
well
Mr Garcia asked why the city had asked for a minimum 40 percent local participation and
a maximum of 60 percent for the Broadway Wastewater Treatment Plant project. Assistant City
Manager Ron Massey stated that the 75 percent local participation level could not be met because
of local workload and the need for more outside expertise. Mr. Massey stated that the proposed
timeline was to have the plant online in 2010, but it was subject to change.

humidity/temperature controls and code compliance.
Mr Torno reported that the design motif for the library's interior was native flora and fauna.
In addition, he said a proposed exterior elevation with an entry canopy was planned that would
blend in with the current building. The designers also planned to incorporate a wall surface finished
with ceramic tile, hopefully to be integrated with the public art component of the project.
Mr Torno referred to a chart providing project data on the original building compared with
the addition/renovation. He said the project was scheduled for completion in May 2007, increasing
the total new area to 12,750 square feet; the total project construction budget was $1.3 million.
Mr Kelly pointed out that one of the main problems with the library was the lack of parking.
He asked how Mr. Torno determined that 23 additional parking spaces would be adequate for the
facility. Mr Torno replied that the 23 spaces exceeded the minimum amount required by the zoning.
He said the number of spaces was also a function of the project budget. Mr. Kelly noted that
additional land was available on the site, and he asked if it would be possible to expand the parking
lot if needed. Mr. Torno replied that expanding the parking lot should be simple to accomplish. Mr.
Kelly said he liked the plan very much.

Goff Course. Mayor Garrett replied that as he told Mr Lozano last week, the Council did not get
Involved in personnel matters. He advised Mr. Lozano to speak with City Manager Noe.
Mr. Tim Brawley, 374 Meldo Park Drive, representing a number of residents, spoke against
the use of a home on their street as a boarding house. He encouraged the Council to continue their
enforcement efforts against the property owner for the zoning violation. Mr. Scott stated that he and
the Council were committed to ensuring that the property owner complied with the city's existing
ordinances
Mr. Luis Corona, 2805 David, spoke regarding his concem that staff had not repaired a table
at the Broadmoor Senior Center since the request was made in January. He said he had spoken
with city staff about the issue to no avail. Mr. Marez stated that the perception was that city staff was
overlooking the Broadmoor Senior Center's concerns in favor of the larger senior centers. He asked
the City Manager to ensure that the repair was made.
Mr. Abel Alonzo commented that the city had made substantial progress in addressing the
needs of persons with disabilities.

Mr. Garcia asked for information on the city's efforts to address the significant increase in
city program-related complaints. Mr. Bazar replied that a large number of the complaints were filed
by one individual. He said the grievance policy stated that when a person filed a complaint, the
Human Relations staff had 15 days to meet with the individual and provide a proposed resolution.
A written response was provided at the end of the 15-day period. The individual then had the
option to appeal if desired
Mr Garcia asked if the city could expedite the rate in which citizen requests for ADA ramps
and curb cuts were installed. Mr. Bazar replied negatively, but said the city was working
cooperatively with TxDOT and other entities to find funding for these requests.

Mayor Garrett recessed the regular Council meeting to hold a meeting of the Corpus Christi
Housing Finance Corporation (CCHFC).
* * * * * * * * * * * * *
Mayor Garrett referred to the presentations on the day's agenda. The first presentation was
Item 19, a quarterly update on the city's ADA Title II Transition Plan and the Non-Discrimination
Ordinance. Director of Human Relations Leon Bazar first reported on the ADA Title II Transition
plan, beginning with public facilities improvements. He said Engineering Services had completed
the barrier-removal project for accessibility within 26 city public facilities. The Committee for
Persons with Disabilities, in coordination with Engineering Services, was reviewing the prioritization
of street and curb ramp work identified in the transition plan.
With regards to the accessibility improvements in public programs, Mr. Bazar mentioned that
the Police department, with input from Municipal Court and Human Relations, was preparing a
proposal for voluntary ADA parking monitor program.
Regarding site development improvements, Mr. Bazar stated that the Human Relations
department continued to identify participants to send to the State of Texas Academy on Texas
Accessibility Standards through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR).
Currently, he said six employees had been rotated into the academy, with one more scheduled to
attend the next class.
With regards to outreach improvements, Mr. Bazar stated that the Human Relations
department continued to provide training on diversity awareness, sensitivity, and People First
language to new employees, Customer Service employees, and Supervisory Training participants.
In addition, he said Mr. Aaron McCullough with the Disability Law Research Project provided a
three-day ADA Technical Assistance training session for city departments.
Regarding citywide curb ramp improvements, Mr. Bazar reported that the city had currently
Identified 24 specifically defined ADA curb ramp projects or ADA related path of travel projects
under Bond 2004. As of January 31,2005, he said 17 projects were in the design phase and seven
projects were in the preliminary project phase. In total, he said the city will have spent approximately
$125 million on ADA street improvements using TxDOT, CDBG, Bond 2000, Bond 2004, and 2004
CIP drainage funds.
Mr. Bazar briefed the Council on ADA complaints filed under the city's Non-Discrimination
ordinance. He said a total of 645 complaints were filed based on disability in this quarter, 642 of
which were related to city public facilities and programs. Mr. Bazar stated this represented a
significant increase, noting that 142 complaints were lodged from February 2004 to April 2005
versus 865 complaints from April 2005 to January 31,2006.

what penalties would be imposed on violators of the open container ordinance. He spoke against
simply issuing a citation, and in favor of detaining them for a period of time.
Acting Chief Bung responded that the Police department was enforcing the current laws
against public intoxication whenever possible. He said the police officers jailed chronic offenders
as space permitted, but it wasn't truly a deterrent to their behavior. City Manager Noe added that
the new ordinance was not a panacea to the public intoxication problem in the area; rather, it was
another tool the officers could use to deal with the problem before the individuals became
Intoxicated. He agreed that putting chronic offenders in jail was not a cure, either, because it would
not deter their behavior.
Mr Noyola questioned whether the proposed ban would truly improve the situation. He'said
the current laws did not seem to deter chronic drinkers, and he didn't see how this ban would help.
Chief Bung reiterated that the police officers had requested the ban as a tool that would hopefully
address the situation before the individuals became intoxicated. He agreed that the ban would not
resolve the issue. Mr. Noyola stated that he thought the city was on the right track, but suggested
that the city continue with a community dialogue to try to resolve the problem, because it wasn't
going to go away.
Mr Kinnison also questioned the effectiveness of the new ordinance, asking if the proposed
ban would simply displace the problem to another geographic area. Mr. Noe replied that a certain
level of displacement would occur, but the positive impact would be on the businesses struggling
with this type of activity in their area. He hoped that the ban would displace the activity to private
property .
In response to Mr. Kelly's question, Chief Bung replied that violators would receive citations,
be deprived of their liquor and then warrants would follow. Repeat offenders would be arrested
after several citations
Mr Kelly noted that property owners and residents had complained about broken glass
bottles in these areas. He asked if the city could regulate what types of containers could be used
In these areas. Mr. Harney replied that staff could look into the issue, noting that the city currently
prohibits glass containers on beaches.
Ms. Cooper spoke in support of the proposed open container ban as a tool to help law
enforcement.
Mr. Marez asked if area churches could be included in the geographic area. Mr. Harney
replied that the T ABC required that the district be compact and contiguous, and include 90 percent
commercial use in the area. He said the city had a certain amount of leeway in delineating the
district; however. the statutory intent was to target the historical central business district.
Mayor Garrett asked for public comment. Mr. Abel Alonzo, 1701 Thames, spoke in support
of the open container ban, and asked the city to consider banning alcohol consumption at bus stops
and on public transportation.
Mr Domingo Ibarra, Corpus Christi Police Officer Association president, and Mr. Gilbert
Cortines with G&L Detail spoke in support of the proposed ban. Mr. Cortines also submitted a
petition signed by area businesses and residents in support of the ban. City Secretary Chapa polled
the Council for their votes as follows:

22. RESOLUTION NO. 026772
Resolution electing to be eligible to participate In tax abatement and adopting Tax
Abatement Guidelines and Criteria.
The foregoing resolution was passed and approved with the following vote: Garrett,
Chesney. Cooper, Garcia, Kelly. Marez, Noyola, and Scott, voting "Aye"; Kinnison voting
"Noll.
Mayor Garrett opened discussion on Item 23 regarding an Open Container ban affecting the
downtown area. City Manager Noe stated that this item was the first step in implementing an open
container ordinance prohibiting the possession of open containers of alcohol on the public right-of-
way. He said the city had to meet a number of Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC)
requirements before final implementation, such as defining the area and demonstrating that 90
percent of the area was commercial. He said the proposed geographic area was composed
coflaboratively between the Police department, the City Attorney's Office, and the community. He
said the ordinance would provide another tool to help police officers patrolling the downtown area
and Leopard Street corridor.
Acting Police Chief K.A. Bung stated that staff consulted with the police officers patrolling
this area, and they helped determine the boundaries of the proposed area. He said that Assistant
City Attorney Joseph Harney ensured that the area met the 90 percent TABC requirement. In
addition, he said staff held a number of public hearings in which the majority of the public supported
the ban. Mr. Noe added that some questioned the city's ability to provide exemptions for certain
special events, such as the Downtown Management District mixers and Bayfest. He said staff was
confident that they could exempt special events in the ordinance.
Mayor Garrett asked if the open container ban would affect liveaboards consuming alcohol
on their boats while moored at the marina. Chief Bung responded that boats were considered
private property, so the ordinance would not apply; if the individuals consumed alcohol on the docks
or in the marina parking lot, however, they would violate the ordinance. City Manager Noe
emphasized that the ordinance only affected public property, not private property. Staff answered
the Council's questions on what type of activities and/or events would be exempted from the
ordinance
Mr Marez asked why the North Beach area wasn't covered under the proposed area. Mr.
Harney replied that the proposed geographic area constituted 90.0124 percent of the TABe's
requirements. If the city chose to add any more areas, staff would have to recalculate the numbers
to ensure that the city complied with the 90 percent commercial requirement.
In response to Mr. Marez's question, Mr. Harney responded that the Up River Road area
Included the Leopard Street corridor, outside of the Woodlawn Shopping Center, and outside the
Hector P. Garcia Post Office.
Mr. Kelly stated that the Central Business District patrons frequently had to step over or
around individuals who were drinking or had become intoxicated. As a result, commerce and
development in this area had suffered
Mayor Garrett asked for public comment. Mr. Erik Von Wade, 6414 Cateau, said he worked
on 2117 Leopard Street. He was in favor of the proposed ordinance as long as it didn't infringe on
the residents' rights. He pointed out that the city currently had ordinances prohibiting public
Intoxication, yet he often encountered intoxicated persons outside his workplace. He asked how
the new ordinance would improve the situation if the current ordinances weren't being enforced, and

Mr Kelly stated that many of his constituents had expressed concern that there would be
no library services in the Northwest area during the renovations. He appreciated staffs efforts to
find a temporary library site. Mr. Canales thanked Calallen ISD Superintendent Dr. Almendarez for
his cooperation.
There were no comments from the audience. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for
their votes as follows:
21. RESOLUTION NO. 026771
Resolution authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute an Interlocal
Cooperation Agreement with the Calallen Independent School District by which the District
provides a temporary site for the operations of the Northwest Branch Library while the
Northwest Branch Library site undergoes expansion and renovation.
The foregoing resolution was passed and approved with the following vote: Garrett,
Chesney. Cooper, Garcia, Kelly, Kinnison, Marez, Noyola, and Scott, voting "Aye".
Mayor Garrett opened discussion on Item 22 regarding the city's tax abatement guidelines
and criteria. Director of Economic Development Irma Caballero reported that this item would
approve the city's eligibility to participate in tax abatement and to adopt the Tax Abatement
Guidelines and Criteria. She said the same guidelines and criteria were proposed with a revision
to support residential development in the downtown area. She referred to map in the Council's
agenda packet that depicted the central business district. She said the percentage of abatement
for residential facilities was 100 percent during the construction period and 100 percent during the
following five years. Since residential facilities are not intended to create jobs, she said staff
recommended that the job requirement be waived, unless the proposed facility was a mixed-use
facility with less than 90 percent residential use. Additionally, Ms. Caballero reported that staff
updated the guidelines by including the additional census tracts approved in Census 2000.
Mr Kinnison stated that if he understood the guidelines correctly, a developer could
construct luxury condos with $250,000 to $400,000 units, earn the tax abatement, and then sell one
of the $400,000 condos to an individual who would also receive the tax abatement for five years.
Ms. Caballero answered affirmatively, saying that the tax abatement stayed with the project during
the abatement period. Mr. Kinnison spoke against providing tax abatements for this type of project
because the individual owner of a $400,000 condo did not need a tax abatement to make a viable
project. City Manager Noe replied that the Council had approved this type of tax abatement in the
current gUidelines and criteria; staff was simply proposing to extend the abatement period and
enhance the percentage of abatement. Mr. Kinnison stated that he was in favor of limiting the
abatements for residential projects to a certain dollar amount, or to offer the tax abatement to the
developer only, not the purchaser. Mr. Noe replied that the only way to achieve this would be to limit
the abatements to rental projects.
Mr Garcia spoke in favor of tax abatements for residential developments, and then passing
on the abatements to individual property owners. He felt that the developers and property owners
who were willing to take on the inherent risk of living in the downtown area needed an economic
stimulus. Mr. Noyola also concurred with the proposed guidelines and criteria.
Mayor Garrett asked for public comment. Mr. Abel Alonzo, 1701 Thames, spoke in favor of
the proposed Tax Abatement Guidelines and Criteria. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for
their votes as follows'

Mayor Garrett opened discussion on Item 21 regarding an agreement with Calallen
Independent School District to provide a temporary site for the Northwest Library operations during
Its expansion and renovation. Director of Libraries Herb Canales reported that the Northwest Library
renovations would take approximately one year to complete, and the city would need a temporary
site during this time. He said the Calallen ISD had offered their old Annaville Elementary School
site, approximately 4,500 square-feet, for a nominal fee. The Calallen ISD school board had already
approved the proposed agreement three weeks ago. Staff anticipated that the move would take
place at the end of July
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting

City Secretary Chapa said the Planning Commission and staff recommended the approval
of the "B-4" General Business District with a Planned Unit Development PUD-2 revised site plan by:
1. Removing building pad sites.
2. Denial of allowing for storage of recreational vehicles/trailers on Lot 3.
Assistant Director of Development Services Michael Gunning reported that the original PUD-
2 for the Porto Bello subdivision, also known as the Harbors, was approved in 1981 for a 140 lot
single-family subdivision with lots less than 6,000 square feet, subject to four conditions. He said
current and potential property owners were requesting that Condition One, illustrating the building
pad sites for each lot on the site plan, be eliminated. By eliminating the pad site area on the site
plan, property owners would be able to build over lot lines if two or more lots were desired for
construction of a single-family structure
Mr Gunning stated that staff initiated the amendment to eliminate Condition One after the
Harbors Homeowners' Association brought the matter to their attention. Consequently, staff was
recommending that the PUD-2 be amended to remove the required footprints for each lot and to
allow the homebuilders to use more than one lot. He said the initial proposal included a request to
Identify Lot 3 as a future site for boat and trailer storage; however, the homeowners' association
objected to this use at the Planning Commission hearing. Staff consequently removed the storage
use from the proposed ordinance. Mr. Gunning noted that the proposed ordinance required an
amendment to change the subject property's legal description to read "Block 1, Lots 2-70 and Lots
70A - 149" eliminating Lots 1 and 150.
In conclusion, Mr. Gunning stated that staff recommended the approval of the revised PUD-
2, He noted that there was a three-percent opposition to the zoning change.
Mayor Garrett asked for public comment. Mr. Jim Kaufman, 712 Enchanted Harbor, and Ms.
Betty Black, 725 Crown Harbor, spoke in support of staff's recommendation to remove the boat
trailer storage usage.
Mr Roger Smith, residing on Enchanted Harbor, spoke in favor of retaining the boat trailer
storage usage on Lot 3,
Mr Marez stated that he had visited the proposed trailer storage area, and found that it was
well camouflaged with fencing. He understood, however, the residents' concern that it could
become an eyesore. He felt that the trailer storage issue still needed to be addressed at some point,
however, because parking the boats on the street would render the streets too narrow.
Mr Chesney made a motion to close the public hearing, seconded by Mr. Scott, and passed.
A motion was made, seconded, and passed to amend the ordinance as recommended by staff.
Mr. Chapa polled the Council for their votes on the amended ordinance as follows:

AGENDA ITEM: Resolution authorizing and approving the City of Corpus Christi to serve
as the lead agency and fiscal agent for the "HOME 2008 Continuum of Care" grant

homeless in the Corpus Christi/Nueces County geographic area. To date, this effort has
been accomplished using only volunteers.
The HIP Board of Directors and the HUD-funded agency Executive Directors firmly believe
that with staffing support and oversight from the City of Corpus Christi, the Continuum of
Care will become stronger, more consistent in its implementation strategies and better able
to meet its mission and ultimate goals for ending chronic homelessness.

~ ------ ---
The Homeless Issues Partnership, Inc. (HIP) currently serves as the lead agency for the
Corpus Christi I Nueces County Continuum of Care for the provision of services to the
homeless. The mission of the Homeless Issues Partnership is to serve as a regional
coalition of agencies, individuals and businesses that address and resolve issues related
to homelessness in the Coastal Bend through actions, resources and education.
In addition to meeting monthly to exchange information, holding trainings, and planning
activities, HIP members work together to identify the needs of the homeless and
strengthen outreach, prevention, and services to this special population. HIP members
also work collaboratively through the Continuum of Care to help direct resources without
duplication and to reap and measure satisfactory results, including returns to the \AIOrkforce
and placements into permanent housing. The Community Development Office has been
an active and contributing member of the Continuum of Care since its origination.
Over the past nine years, HIP has successfully prepared an annual collaborative
competitive grant application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The most recent grants have resulted in annual funding exceeding $1 million for programs
serving the homeless and chronically homeless in the Corpus Christi/Nueces County
geographic area. To date, this effort has been accomplished using only volunteers.
When HUD determines it will award a grant, the individual agency has a direct contract
with HUD. This process lacks centralization and local control. Agencies currently funded
by HUD include Goodwill Industries of South Texas, The Salvation Army, Corpus Christi
Metro Ministries, Coastal Bend Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation, Wesley Community
Center and MHMR of Nueces County.
In addition to managing the Continuum of Care grant, HIP provides an Internet-based
tracking software (the Homeless Management Information System) to members of the
Continuum of Care in exchange for an "End User" fee; implements year-round objectives
set forth in the HUD grant and in the City's Plan to End Chronic Homelessness; conducts
monthly meetings with agencies and individuals who help the homeless (HIP currently has
24 member agencies); surveys the needs and numbers of the homeless; educates the
public on homeless issues; and serves as a point for the dissemination of information to
member agencies. Members of the Continuum of Care pay an annual membership fee to
help support minor operational expenses.
The geographic area currently served by the Continuum of Care includes the City of
Corpus Christi and all of Nueces County. In time, the Continuum of Care plans to expand
its geographic service area to include additional neighboring counties. The Council of
Governments adopted a Resolution to support this expansion effort on March 31,2006.

The Board of Directors of the Homeless Issues Partnership and the HUD-funded agency
Executive Directors firmly believe that with staffing support and oversight from the City of
Corpus Christi, the Continuum of Care will become stronger, more consistent in its
implementation strategies and better able to meet its mission and ultimate goals for ending
chronic homelessness

planning and coordinating of the Continuum of Care process. This includes coordinating
meetings, adhering to certain timetables set forth by the application process, writing
Exhibit 1 (narrative), ensuring that each submitted proposal meets the eligibility threshold
and packaging/submitting the Continuum of Care grant application by its due date. Being
the Fiscal Agent in the Continuum of Care grant application process means that the City of
Corpus Christi will be the administrator of the grant, responsible for monitoring each
Subrecipient to ensure program compliance and all other responsibilities associated with
grant administration.
The following HOME 2008 Continuum of Care grant proposals have been ranked in priority
by a Prioritization Panel established by HIP. The total below represents the HUD

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
City Council Action Date:
5-16-06
AGENDA ITEM: Motion authorizing the City Manager or his designee to grant three permits to Sabco
Operating Company of Houston, Texas, to drill oil or gas wells, approximately five (5) and six (6) miles easterly
of the manna area in Corpus Christi Bay being State Tract 55 Well No.5, State Tract 52 Well Nos. 8 and 9.
Oil and Gas Advisorv Committee's Recommendation: Approval of the exceptional locations.
Staff's Recommendation: Approval of the exceptional locations.
ISSUE: The City Code of Ordinances, Section 35-56 requires City COWlcil approval of drilling permit
applications for exceptional well locations in Corpus Christi Bay.
Rl:QUIRED COUNOL ACTION: The City Code of Ordinances, Section 35-56, sets standards for wells
drilled. in the area of Corpus Christi Bay southerly of the Ship Channel and westerly of the Intracoastal
Waterway The well surface locations must be located in the southwesterly corners of the 640 acre state tracts to
qualify as regular locations. Also the ordinance allows the first producing well in a particular State Tract to be
the designated single cluster area for that State Tract. Unless protested, permits to drill from regular locations do
not require COWlcil action. Exceptional well locations are sites outside of the westerly corner that allow wells to
be drilled as straight or directional boreholes for the purpose of obtaining the only access to the geologic target.
Section 35-56 allows the COWlCil to grant permits for exceptional locations ifit is needed to preventCOllfiscation
of property. The proposed exceptional locations are approximately two thousand (2,000) and three thousand
(3,000) feet respectively from the nearest regular well location. Sabco Operating Company has paid the fifteen
hundred dollar ($1 ,500.00) permit application fee for the three wells and posted the required bond and insurance
certificate They are requesting the exceptional locations to drill these wells as straight holes versus directionally
drilling to reduce the drilling risks, to insure reaching the targeted areas and for economic reasons since the cost to
drill a strmght hole is approximately $1.6 million less than directionally drilling.
PREVIOUS COUNOL ACTION: On February 28, 2006, the City COWlcil granted a permit to Sabco
Operating Company to drill an oil or gas well at an exceptional location, approximately seven (7) miles easterly
of the marina area in Corpus Christi Bay, State Tract 49 Well No.6
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: Due to economics and the subsmfacerisks involved, the Oil
aDd Gas Advisory Committee unanimously voted to recommend the approval of the exceptional well applications
by Sabco Operating Company during their meeting on April 26, 2006. After reviewing geological maps and
discussing the targeted reservoirs, city staff agreed to approve drilling of these exceptional well locations.

Chairman Cabasos called the meeting to order and asked if everyone had reviewed the amended
minutes for the meeting held on February 1, 2006 and asked for a motion to approve. Mr. Cantu stated
the minutes were amended to reflect Mr. Cabasos abstaining from vote on the application from Sabco
Operating Company. On a motion by Mr. Jacobs, seconded by Mr. Cooper, the minutes were
unanimously approved
Consideration of three applications from Sabco Operating Company for drill sites at exceptional
locations in Corpus Christi Bay Recreation Area being State Tract 55 Well No.5 and State Tract 52 Well
Nos. 8 and 9 followed. Mr. Cabasos stated that a permit was issued for State Tract 55 Well No.5 but due
to 1he expiration of the permit the application needed re-approval. Since the application did not change
from prior approval, on a motion by Mr. Cooper, seconded by Mr. Jacobs, the Committee unanimously
~ that the exceptional drill site be recommended for approval by the City Council. Chairman
Cahasos abstained. Mr. Jameson, with Sabco Operating Company, told the Committee their request to
drill State Tract 52 Well Nos. 8 and 9 were similar to that of State Tract 55 Well No.5, He stated both
reservoirs are small and technically very difficult to reach from a directional drill site. Maps were
provided for viewing of the muh lines in addition to a log of a well in close proximity. Mr. Jameson

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 16, 2006
SUBJECT: Cefe Valenzuela Landfill - Project 5186
AGENDA ITEM:
a. Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute Change Order NO.6
for the excavation and transport of overfill from J. C. Elliott Landfill Sector 9 to Sector
11 in the amount of $547,500.00 with Longhorn Excavation, Inc., of Richmond, Texas
for the Cefe F Valenzuela Landfill Site Development Project.
b. Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a work order with SFI
Waste Services of North America, Inc., of Scottsdale, Arizona, in the amount of
$848,400.00 for the spread, compaction and cover of overfill from Sector 9 delivered to
Sector 11 of J C. Elliott Landfill in accordance with the terms of the Landfill Services

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
CHANGE ORDER:
The change order provides for the excavation and transportation of approximately 209,000
cubic yards of overfilled municipal solid waste from Sector 9 to Sector 11 at J. C. Elliott
Landfill. The change order provide 35 calendar days to complete the work and an
additional ten (10) calendar days of contingency. A copy of the change order summary is
attached See Exhibit S. The City's landfill operator (SFI) will compact and cover the
waste as an additional task per the specifications set forth in their operating agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Solid Waste Services received permission from TCEQ to temporarily overfill Sector 9 to
accommodate the construction schedule for Cefe Valenzuela. This allowed the City to
tighten the timing between the use of remaining J. C. Elliott capacity and completion of
Cefe Valenzuela Landfill. Delaying the bidding and construction of Cefe Valenzuela
prevented the premature expenditure of capital project funds and duplication of facilities for
an extended time.
Solid Waste Services explored various alternatives to determine the best method to move
the overfilled material from Sector 9 to Sector 11. Longhorn was requested to provide
prices for the excavation, transport, compaction and burial of the waste. They declined to
provide a price using SFI as a sub-contractor.
SFI prOVided a compaction and cover price as a direct contractor for the City. SFI declined
to provide a price for excavation and transport of the material. Solid Waste Services also
took informal bids on the lease of an excavator and transport equipment with City force
operators
It was determined the best and most cost effective alternative was to use longhorn to
move the material and SFI to compact and provide daily cover. This alternative offered the
advantages of SF!:
being a TCEQ licensed landfill operator; and
retaining liability for proper compaction and cover of all material in Sector 11.
PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION:
The most recent actions to initiate actual construction of Cefe Valenzuela Landfill have
been:

calendar days.
Why was this change necessary? (If left off the plans and specifications, explain why)
Sector 9 was overfilled to ensure J. C. Elliott would have capacity to accept waste while Cefe
Valenzuela was constructed. Start of construction for Cefe Valenzuela was delayed to avoid
premature completion and expenditure of funds. TCEQ ordered removal of overfill from Sector 9 to
Sector 11 when Sector 11 was opened.
How can similar changes be aVOided in the future? The overfill was necessary to minimize the
potential impact of delayinQ the premature expenditure of Solid Wastes CIP funds.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
SUBJECT: Choke Canyon Dam Spillway and Outlet Works Concrete Repair - REBID
(Project No. 8407)
PROJECT BACKGROUND: The Choke Canyon Dam facility must be maintained
according to specifications established by the United States Bureau of Reclamation
(USBR) As the owner of the dam, the USBR inspects the structure for potential problems
and necessary maintenance requirements. Originally, the Comprehensive Facility Review
Program identified the following issues that needed to be addressed:
· River Outlet Works Repair consisted of the re-evaluation of the river outlet works
chute and stilling basins and repair of the 99-inch steel outlet works pipe and the 20-
inch bypass pipe at the jet flow gate.
· Trash Rack Repair and High Level Alarm Installation involved rehabilitation of the
metal trash racks and cathodic protection to minimize future corrosion, as well as
installation of a high water alarm in the outlet works conduit to provide for SCADA
reporting of alarms.
· Spillway Radial Gates Repair involved recoating the spillway radial gates.
On December 14, 2004, Motion No. 2004-445 authorized Amendment NO.1 to the
Contract for Professional Services in the amount of $314,450 with Freese & Nichols, Inc.
The scope of Amendment NO.1 consisted of engineering design and other services to
complete the repairs and improvements at Choke Canyon Dam. All services and repairs
are coordinated with the USBR.
eROJECT DESCRIPTION: The concrete in the spillway and outlet works is in need of
repair. The spillway damage appears to have been caused by thermal expansion and the
outlet works damage was caused by abrasion. Freese and Nichols, together with the
USSR, have investigated and prepared construction documents for the repair. The
damaged concrete will be replaced in both the spillway and the outlet works. A safety
boom will be installed around the outlet works intake structure. The deflector will be
fabricated and installed in the outlet works in conjunction with the concrete repairs.
Bids for the Choke Canyon Dam Spillway and Outlet Works Concrete Repair project were
originally opened on January 25,2006. Seven bids were received but the three apparent
low bidders were deemed to be non-responsive. The lowest responsible bid of $404,565
exceeded the consultant's opinion of probable construction cost by $134,565 and the City's
adopted FY2005 Capital Budget (construction) by $55,000. Considering that the low bid
exceeded available funding, Freese & Nichols recommended that the city reject all bids
and re-issue the bid package with a revision to the bid proposal form to combine the
concrete repairs and deflector into a single base bid.
BMID INFORMATION: The City received proposals from three bidders on May 3,2006
(see Exhibit "B" Bid Tabulation) The engineer's estimated cost of construction is $300,000.
The bids ranged from: Low Bid: $309,038 HiQh Bid: $354,625
H lHOMElRachelleIGEN\WaterICho'e Canyor 'laml8407IREBIDlAgende Background doc
Holloman Corporation of Converse. Texas, submitted the lowest bid. In addition, the City's
consultant. Freese & Nichols Inc.. found Holloman's qualifications and references to be in
conformance with the contract requirements specified in the bid documents. Therefore,
Freese & Nichols and City staff recommend that a construction contract be awarded in the
amount of $309,038 to Holloman Corporation of Converse, Texas.
CONTRACT TERMS: The contract specifies that the project will be completed in 180
calendar days. Completion is anticipated in mid-December 2006.

Re: North Padre Island Project - Request for Sponsor Cost Share Fl,mds
Dear Mr. Noe.
On March 10, 2006, the District received supplemental funding to repair damages to the
projectcaused by Hurricane Rita. The Federal funds received were $1 million. The non-
Federal cost share portion will be S538,461.54. This amount was discussed with your staff
previously.
On March 7, 2006, I met with Andrew Smith and Luhr Brothers tQ discuss flnal
completion of the original contract. We discussed each contract bid item and made projections
of final quantities to determine a total contract price (excluding the hurricanes repair work).
Attached is a spreadsheet with the projected final quantities, indicating anticipated under runs
and over runs in quantities. The estimated cost of the overruns is Sl,435,l 08. 76.
Item 3, Utility Casing Installation, is 1000.10 ~on-Federal funds. This item overran a total
of 11 feet for a cost of $4,796. Includins the overrun for the utility casing, the non-Federal cost
share for the overruns i5"$505,405 47
Request tbat you furnish the District an additional $1,043,867 for the City's portion of the
cost share for the overruns and hurricane repair work. Since the contractor is continuing to work
and will soon be billing the District for work accomplished, it is imperative that you furnish
these funds as soon as possible, but no later than May J 5. 2006.
Should you have any questions concerning this request, you may contact me at (409)
766-3914.
Sincerely,
Attachment

REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Council Chambers- City Hall
Wednesday - February 8, 2006
b 0206-02
Chill Pepper PropertIes, Inc., Gary Cadena and Timothy Lawson: From "R-IB" One-
family Dwelling District to an "A-2" Apartment House District
Being 11.4 acres out of West's Laguna Madre Place, Tract A, Lots 1-5, Tract B, Lots 1
and 4-8, Tract C, Lots 1-6 and 8-11, Tract 15 (replat), Laguna Madre Acres Tracts 13 and
14, Volume 1363, Page 449, located west of Laguna Shores Road and McNelly Street
intersection and south of Glenoak Drive.
Faryce Goode-Macon presented a review of this request for an "A-2" Apartment House District
and stated that the subject property is located on Laguna Shores Road with boundaries on Glenoak Drive
and Debra Lane for the purpose of developing sixty (60) two-story townhouses with detached garages and
ninety-SIx (96) condominiums in a two building plan concept with five (5) stories and parking on the first
floor. The property consists of 11.4 acres. To the north of the subject property is vacant land with
residential zoning. To the south is the Belmont residential development along with portions of vacant
land bemg zoned as "R-lB" One-family Dwelling District and "B-1" Neighborhood Business District and
to the east and to the west are single-family residences. Ms. Macon stated the future land use map
supports an "A-2" Apartment House Distnct. There were twenty-five notices (25) mailed out with seven
(7) notices returned in opposition making the opposition at 16%.
In answer to CommIssioner Zamora's question, Ms. Goode-Macon stated that at this time the
applicant was not in ownership of Lots 2, 3 and 7. The applicant does intend to pursue purchasing these
lots. If they are unable to acquire the lots, the zoning is still being requested.
In answer to CommIssioner Skrobarczyk's question, Ms. Goode-Macon stated that if these lots
are not purchased, the development is planning to build around these lots.
Public heanng was opened.
Paul Lozak, ]4261 A.llamanda Drive, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that the applicant is almost at
completion of twenty-two (22) high quality townhomes on Padre Island Island are looking to do a similar
development in this area. This area is void of new construction. The applicant did consider developing
approximately fifty (50) single-family residences in this area but after studying the City's Development
Plan which indicated multi-family zoning the applicant revised their request to an "A-2" Apartment
House District. The current zoning east along Laguna Shores Road is a "B2" Bayfront Business District
or "B-4" General Business District for business, and properties on each side of the subject property are
zoned a "B-1" Neighborhood Business District and an "A-I" Apartment House District. The applicant
had discussions with the City regarding the possibility of developing this area for townhouses and
condomimums and had discussions on water, wastewater, and drainage. The applicants provided a
preliminary site plan showing the development of these townhomes and condominiums guarding the
privacy of the residents on Debra and leavmg the majority of the rear property undisturbed. The
Planning CommIssIOn Mmutes
Case No 0206-02 (Chllt Pepper Propertlcs, Inc ,

Pagc 2
development would generate $30-$40 milhon in construction and be a positive addition for the entire
area,
In answer to Commissioner Pusley's question, ML Lozak stated that there has been no
communication with the neighborhood,
In answer to C ommtssioner Zamora's questIOn, ML Lozak stated that the applicant is more than
willing to have discussions with the neighbors to discuss plans and their concerns.
Wallace Allen, 2705 Laguna Shores Road, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that he was in favor of
this request.
Marvin and Norma Marshall, 2825 Debra Street, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that the storm
drainage floods into a wetland and three-fourths of the time has six inches to a foot of water and continues
to fill up In the rainiest of season to approximately 10 feet of water. The boundaries of the project drain
to the right of Glenoak and continue to fill up towards my property and then eventually move across the
street. These five (5) story townhouses are about a few hundred feet from my house. Across the street
from this project is the Red Hen Pond whIch is a protective wildlife reserve and a lot of the birds reside in
the back area of the proposed development This project will destroy the wetlands. This five (5) story
building behind my house IS going to lower property values with this kind of development of apartment
type buildings NeIghbors don't want to have their privacy infringed on with buildings at the rear of their
properties
In answer to Commissioner Skrobarczyk's question, Mrs. Marshall stated that the six (6) foot
pond doesn't drain, but the surrounding streets drain into Glenoak and there are no side walks and no
parking.
In answer to Chairman Stone's question, Mary Frances Teniente stated that the engineer will be
addressing issues if that is an official wetlands and drainage will be discussed and assessed,
Alex Hacker, 2630 Debra Street, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that his residence was
approximately 150 yards from the proposed development. All the water drainage crosses Glenoak and
goes through the wildlife area. Looking at their project lay-out, about 80 percent will be pure run-off with
roofs and pavement and there will be an additional nine (9) acres that generate run-off. Approximately
30,000 gallons for run-off. My second concern is traffic, This development will add 300 cars to this area
and there are only two (2) exits on Glenoak Drive and on Waldron Road. At school time, there is a large
traffic problem. There will be environmental contamination with this development and the drainage that
It will produce, The pond IS in front afmv property and it will ruin our environment.
Ehzabeth Starr, 2638 Debra, Corpus Christi, Texas inquired whether there would a study
performed on the impact of this development. Most of the tourists that visit this area do so to view the
Red Hen Pond and most of the tourists gather on Glenoak. This development will have a negative fact on
the wetlands and their beauty.
Wally Maller, 271g Debra, Corpus Christi, Texas stated his opposition to this development. This
area has lImited infrastructure for sewer and is not set up for increased traffic. There will be 60 foot
buildings in my view and this area is not set for drainage. There are kids walking to school and it would
be a danger to them with no sidewalks and the increased traffic.
Cmdy Moore, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that her residence was located on the comer of
Glenoak and Laguna Shores Drive. Ms, Moore stated her opposition to the development of high-rise
Plannmg Commission Minutes

apartments. There is no crime, a very qUiet neighborhood and this will totally demolish our area and
lower property values. I do have a problem with sixty to eighty foot buildings in that area. I don't oppose
progress. fhese are small lots and this development IS gomg to cause problems with the run-off and in
five (5) years I have already submitted two (2) flood claims with the existing conditions. On 11.4 acres,
there could be a development of eighty (80) single-family residences. There is also the problem of City
sewage and traffic
Mike Parker. 225 Glenoak, Corpus Christi stated that the infrastructure will not handle this
proposed development. This area already has experienced some accidents and there is large traffic with
approximately thirty (30) school buses each day. There are no sidewalks for the children. The sewage
system backs up on a regular baSIS and thIS development will add to the problem.
Jack Eckstine, 2745 Debra Lane. Corpus Christl, Texas stated that he owns three acres on the
west side of this development and there is a lot of water received on our property. If you look at the
property proposed, the property values will be ruined. Laguna Shores at high tide is under water. If this
kind of development is approved, there are going to be major problems with drainage.
Mr. Gaines, 2853 Glenoak, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that he owns three (3) acres and all of
Debra drams toward his property and cuts between the back lot. The drainage is very heavy and fills up
between hiS property and the adjacent neighbor's property.
Scott CorlIss. 2922 Debra Lane, Corpus ChrIsti, Texas stated that this development will triple the
traffic and this is not good planning. School traffic is 90 percent of the traffic. This will impede the
marshland R-1B is surrounding the property and it would definitely negative the complete area. At the
next meetmg, there will be at least 30 percent of opposition. There will be an increased need for garbage
dumps. Single-family residences would generate less amount of water. There is a lot more spaces for
run-off on a single-family residence.
Pam Bush, 121 Glenoak, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that she is leasing her property but the
owner of the property IS very upset and opposes the development.
Leota Gaines, 2853 Gaines, Corpus Christi, Texas stated we have approximately three acres along
the Van Halen drainage ditch and all of Debra drains toward the east. It is blocked off and the culvert
under Glenoak was filled in on the southside and as the water builds up, our property will have a lake.
Jason Avrehusky, 233 Glenoak, Corpus Christi, Texas stated that traffic on G1enoak, Debra and
Laguna Shores Road is extensive, During high tide on Laguna Shores Road the area is flooded that
directs traffic through Glenoak.
When It does ram, we have water rushing across Debra Lane sometimes four inches deep. The
street Glenoak from Waldron Road to Debra is caving in and they are sewer problems and there is a hole
going under the pavement. This problem has not been fixed. Also, on Debra on the north end when it
rains the sanitary sewer can shoot as high as one foot.
Public hearing was dosed.
Commissioner Braselton stated that the property to the north is already zoned an "A-I"
Apartment House District and the drainage would have to be addressed during platting.
Mary Frances Teniente stated that there is sewer down Debra Lane and there is a gravity system
at the Riviera Lift Station,

Page 4
In answer to CommISSIOner Skrobarczyk's questIon, Ms. Holly stated our requirements are
msufficient to protect this area under the current Storm Water Master Plan,
CommiSSIOner Skrobarczyk stated that if you had sufficient flow from Glenoak Drive the backup
would be mimmlzed gOlllg mto other subdIvisions. Even on eighty (80) single family residences, there
will run-off drainage problems. Even a one story structure would block the view and this development
for Flour Bluff is long overdue and wIll probably occur.
Commissioner Pusley stated that there is a lot of work to be done with the neighbors and the
developers. When you reach City CouncIl with this much opposition, it can be difficult.
CommisSIoner Salazar stated from ltstening to the neighborhood, I do not know iftabling this
case would make a difference, The Flour Bluff is due for a development of this type. If the 20 percent
rule is Invoked, approval for the case will be difficult at the City Council level. It would be in the best
mterests of the developer to work wIth the neighborhood
Gary Kedina, a developer on the project, 14813 Leeward Trail, Corpus Christi, Texas stated he
was the holder of a biology degree from A & M University and has experience with environmental
concerns Mr. Kedina stated their intent to maximize the use of this project and come to a balance that
works The area at the back and at the location of the possible pond, we have left it as a green area. If the
zoning request is approved, the applicant and developers will work with our engineers and the City to deal
with the drainage problem. Traffic concerns are an issue, This development is more geared to vacation
homes and weekend homes There IS approximately an average often percent that live on the site all the
time at our current development. At this proposed development, short term rentals will not be allowed.
Regarding concerns with the enVIronment, this area already has an environmental problem and drainage
problems The appltcant and developer will deal with the run-off on this property
In answer to Chairman Stone's question, Mr. Kedina stated that their intention is to purchase Lots
2, 3 and '7 on McNeely If this does not occur, the applicant will build around those lots.
In answer to Commissioner Pus ley . s question, Mr. Kedina stated that a letter has been received
from the Corp of Engineers addressing Laguna Shores Road. The back issue is based on utilizing
vegetation as a green area to be used with the wildlife habitat. The proposed property will have to be
reviewed by our engllleer for the normal rainwater for Corpus Christi and divert water into different
directions per our master plan.
In answer to Commissioner Skrobarczyk's question, Mr. Kedina stated that proposed is a
sidewalk and tennis courts bordering the wetlands. The structure for the condominiums will be elevated
on stilts with parking underneath
In answer to Commissioner Zamora's question, the landscaping plans will come later. In the past,
we have used natural native plants to be placed around the pool.
Commissioner Pus ley encouraged all concerned to get together prior to City Council to find
solutions for the development and concerns from the neighborhood.
Chairman Stone stated he felt uncomfortable approving the vote when the site plan may change if
the three (3) lots are not purchased.

*************************************************************************************
Purpose:
Temporary staffing services are essential to the daily operations of City
Govemment. Temporary staffers provide manpower necessary to properly
serve the citizens of Corpus Christi. In FY 04/05 temporary staffers who
filled the sixty-five position titles in the RFP contributed approximately
276,9')1 man hours.
These centralized service agreements will make available those sixty-five
temporary position titles at a substantial cost savings over the prices
negotiated and paid by individual departments.
The SIxty-five temporary position titles have been classified into three job
groups: Administrative Support & Clerical, General Services & Support
Occupations and Technical & Professional Occupations.
Award Basis:
A request for proposal was issued to twenty-nine vendors. Nine proposals
were received; one of which was submitted by Adecco Employment
Services atter the deadline for receipt of proposals.
Prop(lsals were evaluated across four major criteria: Technical Solution,
PrOp(ISer's ProfIle & QualifIcations, Cost and Exceptions. An evaluation
team comprised of representatives from Finance, Human Resources, Risk
Management and Purchasing reviewed the proposals and scored each
according to the cnteria above.
Proposals were analyzed in a bundled and unbundled approach. This
analy-;is resulted in a detem1ination that the most advantageous means of
av.ard is to assign two PRIMARIES and one SECONDARY to each of the
three lOb groups.
Price Anal vsis
Funding:
Each (If the followmg PRIMARY vendors earned the highest and second-
highest overall score in each group, respectively, while the SECONDARY
vendors earned the third-highest overall score in each group:

Group Total
$115,017.93
The recommended award for Primary vendors in each group is based on the
sixty-five temporary position titles for which that vendor was the 10west-
cost provider when compared to the other Primary. The secondary award
for each group will serve as the backup supplier for each of the Primary
vendors in that group.
For the sixty-tlve positions procured in the RFP, in FY 04/05 the City
mcurrcd an annual cost of approximately $3,480,946.17. The recommended
vendors will provide temporary staffers for the sixty-five positions while
reduclllg expenditures by $634,509.76 or 18% to $2,846,436.41 per annum.
