Mayor Garrett opened discussion on Item 7 regarding contracts for the Community Youth
Development (78415) Steering Committee. Ms. Therese Perez, 325 Claremore, spoke against the
aWlrd of a subcontract to Planned Parenthood due to their stance on abortion.
City Manager Noe clarified that the city served as the Texas Department of Family and
Pnltective Services' fiscal agent for the CYD program. He said the Community Youth Development
(78415) Steering Committee, a citizen group representing the 78415 zip code area, decided on
funcJing allocations after reviewing proposals submitted to the group. In essence, he said the
Catlncil was confirming the group's recommendations. Mr. Noe also stated that the local Planned
Parenthood chapter was not involved in any abortion activities; rather, the proposed funding was
directly related to educational programs
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
S~tember 12. 2006 - Page 10
In response to Councilmember Noyola's question, City Manager Noe stated thatthe Planned
P~nthood contract provided a written record of what services would be provided in return for the
funding. Parks and Recreation Director Sally Gavlik added that that Planned Parenthood was
apJ*'oved for CYD funding in 2006. She also noted that the State of Texas reviewed all the
programs recommended for funding prior to the Council's consideration. City Manager Noe said
staff would provide Mr Noyola with a copy of Planned Parenthood's contract.
Mr. Noyola reported that a year ago, he, City Manager Noe, and the Mayor had met with a
woman whose funding proposal had not been recommended by the CYD Steering Committee. She
proposed to offer a number of activities based in a gymnasium she owned. Mr. Noyola spoke in
support of her proposal, and asked staff to assist her in applying for the funds. Parks and
Recreation Director Sally Gavlik replied that staff would ensure that the woman received an
application for next fiscal year's allocation. Mr. Noe emphasized that the CYD Steering Committee
m~e the final decision on the recommended programs. Thus, he said staff could only provide her
with access to the process. and could not ensure that her proposal would be funded. Mr. Noyola
poiftted out that the same agencies seemed to be funded every year. He said he wanted staff to
ensure that she was included in the process.
Mayor Garrett opened discussion on Item 11 regarding the lease of the Wilson Plaza East
building for additional courtroom space. Councilmember Kelly asked for clarification on why the
additional courtroom space was needed Municipal Court Judge Rodolfo Tamez replied that the
additional courtroom space was needed to more expeditiously process defendants with outstanding
Waffants. He said the municipal court judges could not take a plea in the city's magistrate center,
only in open court. Thus, he said the lack of courtroom space became an issue at night because
jucltes on staff did not have an available courtroom during the evening.
Mr. Kelly said he understood staff was considering moving one of the city's existing courts to
the new courtroom. Judge Tamez answered affirmatively, saying staff had considered transferring
the Environmental Court to the new courtroom. He said, however, that the environmental court
jUdfle and prosecutor WOUld not be limited strictly to environmental court cases. He said City
Attorney Fischer and Environmental Court Judge Rank could coordinate a schedule to review other
municipal court cases in the mornings. Judge Tamez said that when Judge Rank's dockets were
full, then he would strictly work on environmental court cases.
Mr. Kelly expressed concern that Judge Rank's light environmental case load did not justify
the personnel costs of transferring him to another court. While he was in favor of the additional
courtroom space, he was concerned that moving Judge Rank to the Wilson Plaza building, even on
a pert-time basis, would negatively impact the city's ability to move cases expeditiously in the other
courtrooms. He asked Judge Tamez to provide data on Judge Rank's current environmental court
caseload and how many cases he was handling for the other judges. He said the Municipal Court
Committee could then make a determination on the extent of the impact.
Councilmember Garcia commented that based on the number of code violations he had
obServed throughout the city, he was surprised that the Environmental Court did not have a full
docket. Judge Tamez replied that the size of the docket depended on the number of cases filed in
the court. City Manager Noe added that the Environmental Court docket was growing, but there
Wale a number of challenges to prosecuting these types of cases, such as identifying and contacting
the property owner He said the city's first priority was to abate the problem by cleaning up the area.
Mr. Noyola spoke in favor of transferring the Environmental Court to the new courtroom to
ensure that his services would be well utilized.
There were no comments from the public. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council fortheir

Acting Director of Development Services Michael Gunning stated that RFI, Inc. was
requesting a variance to allow the on-premise consumption of alcoholic beverages at Sports Chill &
Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
September 12.2006 - Page 14
Grill, located at 1402 Rodd Field Road. He said the proposed establishment was located within 300
feet of a daycare center, which conflicted with a State law prohibiting any person from maintaining a
buSiness for the dispensing and sale for on-premise consumption of alcoholic beverages within 300
feet of a daycare center. He pointed out, however, that the statute also gave the City Council the
autlority to approve a variance to the distance requirement, which was the purpose of to day's public
hearing
Mr. Gunning said a lounge on the subject property had coexisted with the KinderCare Child
daycare center for over 28 years without incident. He said in September 1997, the State added
daycare centers to T ABC regulations as a prohibited use within 300 feet of an establishment
potsessing a permit to sell alcohol for on-premise consumption. He said the majority of alcohol
saJes would likely occur in the late afternoon or evening when the daycare center was closed.
Trn.refore, he said staff was recommending the approval of the variance because it would minimally
impact the daycare center
No one spoke in opposition to the variance request. Mr. Garcia made a motion to close the
public hearing, seconded by Ms. Cooper, and passed. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for
their votes as follows
26.b. RESOLUTION NO. 026982

Director of Operations.
Mr. Zamarripa reported on a number of workforce statistics to gauge the strength ofthe city's

0.10 point of a percentage point change from the previous quarter, and a four percentage point
increase from 2005. bringing the over-the-year employment gain to 344 new jobs.
Mr. Zamarripa stated that the unemployment rate for July 2006 was 5.7 percent, up 0.2 of a
pefCentage point from July 2005. He said this was the second lowest unemployment rate since
2001
Mr. Zamarripa reported that payroll size was also a good indicator of the wellness of the local
labl)r market. He said education and health services had a quarterly payroll of $298 million,

of 2,100 jobs, noting that these industries also had some of the highest wages per employee
(a~rage of $1 ,081 a week). He said these job gains were offset, however, by a total of 1,756 job
losses, leaving a positive balance of 344 jobs. He said most of the job losses were concentrated in
the leisure and hospitality industries.
Mr. Zamarripa stated that the area's most significant labor shortages continued to be in the
equcation, petrochemical, cQnstruction, and other fields such as registered nurses and engineers.
He said the projected gap in the industrial trade skilled workforce was expected to double by 2020,

workforce challenges. She mentioned the needs of job seekers; additional childcare dollars to
Nueces County; enhanced career centers; multi media campaigns - Hot Jobs on Kill and KEYS to

Ms. Rojas also reported on WorkSource's efforts to build a qualified workforce for new
butinesses. She mentioned one program providing funding to two area companies to train 26 new

Minutes - Regular Council Meeting
September 12, 2006 - Page 21
Mayor Garrett referred to Item 28, a presentation on the Water Supply Status and Future
Potential Projects. Mayor Garrett stated that many citizens had asked him why the City could not
transfer water from Choke Canyon into Lake Mathis to address their problems. Assistant City
Manager Ron Massey stated that he would address this issue in the presentation.
Mr. Massey reviewed the terms of the city's agreed order that relate to water conservation
measures. He said according to the order, the city, as operator of the reservoir system, shall
provide not less than 151 ,000 acre feet of water per ann u m for the estuaries. He said that when the
reservoir levels dropped below 40 percent, however, the city reduced its freshwater inflow
requirements to 1,200 acre feet a month, or 24,000 acre feet a year. He said a portion of the acre
feet would be credited as effluent return flow. Under this scenario, he said the city would implement
mandatory lawn watering restrictions. When the reservoir levels dipped below 30 percent, he said
the city was allowed to suspend all pass-through requirements for bays and estuaries, with
additional water restrictions.
Mr. Massey describad the water conservation measures in more detail as follows: 50
percent reservoir level- increased public awareness; 40 percent - restrict time-of-day lawn watering
(inftow targets reduced to 1,200 acre feet a month; and 30 percent - restrict lawn watering to time-
of -day and no more than once every five days (inflow targets suspended).
Mr. Massey discussed the reservoir levels as of September 12, 2006 as follows: Lake
Corpus Christi - 81.85 feet (30.3 percent of capacity); Choke Canyon - 213.73 feet (76.5 percent of
capacity; and Lake Texana - 42.64 feet (93 percent of capacity). He noted that the combined
syttem capacity for Lake Corpus Christi and Choke Canyon was 64 percent.
Mr. Massey referred to a graph modeling the forecast worst case system storage vs. Lake
Carpus Christi target elevation from January 2006 to September 2009. He said the city's current
optrating procedure was to allow the water level in Lake Corpus Christi to decrease to 74 feet
before replenishing the lake with water from Choke Canyon. He said if the city were to change the
minimum threshold from 74 feet to 82 feet to maintain higher water levels in Lake Corpus Christi,
then the city would enter mandatory restrictions earlier for all its customers. He explained that Lake
Corpus Ch risti was on the most prolific watershed, so if the city allowed the levels to drop in the lake,
then this would create more room to catch water from the watershed. He said Choke Canyon, on
the other hand, was on a less prolific watershed; it was more difficult to replenish. Thus, he said the
more the city kept Lake Corpus Christi full, the more water was spilled when the river was flowing.
In summary, Mr. Massey said the good news for lake area residents was that the city was
drawing the maximum amount of water from Lake Texana. He said the bad news was that the city
did not replenish Lake Corpus Christi until the water levels reached 74 feet to delay any mandatory
watering restrictions.
Mr. Massey discussed a number of water supply initiatives. He said Phase II of the Garwood
Pipeline was completed. He said the Padre Island Aquifer Storage Recovery (ASR) District was
authorized. He said the Corps of Engineers (COE) Nueces River Basin Feasibility Studies were in
Yeer 2. Regarding the seawater desalination initiative, he said the city had applied for Phase II
funding, and which was related to the Nueces River Basin Feasibility study effort. Regarding
groundwater sources, he said the city was partnering with the San Patricio Municipal Water District
to investigate groundwater as a new water supply source. Ultimately, he said the region could
develop groundwater sources.
Council members asked questions about the Garwood Pipeline timeline; the San Patricio

Mooicipal Water District groundwater project; and how to address Lake Mathis's water levels.
In response to Councilmember Scott's question, Mr. Massey stated that the intakes from
other cities that draw water from Lake Corpus Christi may not function effectively at the 74-foot
threshold. Consequently, he said those entities may want to discuss the matter with the city. City
Manager Noe added that the city had long-term contracts with a number of entities that had been
financially beneficial to the communities drawing water. He said however, that the city did not want
Corpus Christi citizens to bear the cost of operating at higher levels; thus, he said another option
may be for those entities to make necessary improvements to lower their intake at their cost.

Mayor Garrett called for the City Manager's report. City Manager Noe reported that the
Airport Advisory Board was holding a public meeting on the proposed update to the Airport Master
Plan at 3:30 p.m., September 13, 2006, Museum of Science and History Water Garden Room.
City Manager Noe announced that the NIP Area No. 16 Kickoff meeting would be held at

City Manager Noe reported that tomorrow at 8: 15 a.m., the Citizens for Educational

week's Council meeting: CVB quarterly report; two zoning cases; and Bond 2004 project update.
Mayor Garrett reported that a vacant building in the downtown area had appraised for
$61,089 in 2005; in 2006, the appraisal dropped to $47,847. Notwithstanding, he said the property
owner was trying to sell the building for $750,000. He asked staff to see what the city could do
about this matter. He also reported a number of code violations to Director of Neighborhood
Setvices Yvonne Haag
Mayor Garrett noted that the Texas Municipal League Annual Conference would begin on
TU$eday, October 24, a council meeting date. He said three Councilmembers were scheduled to
a~nd a TML meeting on Oct. 24. Mayor Garrett made a motion to direct staff to cancel the October
24 Council meeting. seconded by Mr. Chesney, and passed.
Mayor Garrett stated that Port of Corpus Christi Chairman Ruben Bonilla had visited
Cotombia recently, and stated that the country's officials were pleased with the reception the Tall
Ships had received when they visited Corpus Christi. Mayor Garrett also asked staff to provide
promotional materials in Spanish for these types of visits.
Mayor Garrett called for Council concerns and reports. Mr. Noyola congratulated Leadership
Corpus Christi for the 9-11 Memorial Ceremony held yesterday, highlighting the Flour Bluff ROTC's
performance.
Mr. Noyola stated he had been hearing complaints about the number of uninsured vehicles
In "e city. He asked staff to look into what measures the city could take to address the problem.
City Manager Noe replied that he and Police Chief Smith had discussed the matter. He said some
cities had enacted ordinances that would allow an uninsured vehicle to be towed for whatever
cause. He said other communities had less stringent requirements that allowed the towing of
MiIlutes - Regular Council Meeting
September 12, 2006 - Page 23
uninsured vehicles only if they were involved in an accident. He said the city was reviewing the
options, but the main challenge was the city's lack of a suitable impound lot. He said staff was
reviewing the options to acquire a larger, more suitable impound lot facility, and would bring forward
recommendations in a few months.
Mr. Scott noted that in the last week's Council packet, there had been a memo discussing
the city's winter average rate. He said the memo noted that there was a four percent increase in the
number of customers compared to last year. He asked staff to provide information on the numbers
of water customers over the last five years in next week's packet. City Manager Noe stated that the
$260 million in new improvements had yielded four percent more water and wastewater customers.
Mr. Scott stated that this was positive news for the community.
Mr. Scott stated that there was a rumor that the ramp reversals on SPID were not on the
same schedule they originally were. Mr. Massey replied that Phase 1 of the project was bid, but the
bids came in higher than estimated. He said Phase 2 did not have a timeline associated with it. He
said he would look into the matter and provide an update.
Finally, Mr. Scott reported that at the end of Laguna Shores near the new marina, there was
a lot with junk vehicle on it. He asked Director of Neighborhood Services Yvonne Haag to have
code enforcement staff look into it.
Ms. Cooper asked staff to publicize MIS Unit Director Leonard Scott's presentation attheY2
Convention in London at the end of the month. She also announced that the next town hall meeting
Well scheduled for next Monday, hosted by Councilmember Noyola. Mr. Noyola replied that
unfortunately, he had travel plans next Monday. Ms. Cooper stated that she would look into
rescheduling the meeting, but the notices had already gone out. Mr. Noyola said he would try to
work around his travel plans to see if he could attend; otherwise, he would have to cancel his trip.
Ms. Cooper said she would wait before making any further announcements.
Mr. Garcia noted that the carcass from the hull of a trailer home that was dumped on
Waldron Road was still there. Director of Neighborhood Services Yvonne Haag stated that the
clean up was a coordinated effort between Police, Code Enforcement, and Solid Waste. She said it
was a difficult clean-up effort due to the condition of the trailer, but the clean-up should be
completed soon. She said staff had identified the trailer's owner, and were charging the owner for
an abandoned vehicle.
Mr. Garcia complimented Mr. Kelly for his efforts to address the storm water problems in the
Northwest area.
Mayor Garrett asked Ms. Haag if she had checked into a code violation behind the Old
Academy building. Ms. Haag replied that code enforcement staff had started a case on the issue,
and notices had been sent to the property owner for several violations.
Mayor Garrett thanked the Parks and Recreation staff for their efforts during the memorial
ceremony yesterday.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Far a number of years, the City of Corpus Christi has provided video streaming
services on the City web site for live and archived City Council meetings, public
communications about major projects, public service announcements, and
information on City services.
CItY Council approved a contract for professional video streaming services in June
2t1>4. Webcast of Council meetings has provided video access for geographic areas
in the city with limited cable services, such as downtown, and convenient online
access to archived video files. The City web site also has provided online access to
vicleo and psa's for the Museum, Cultural Center, Marina, Po~ce, Fire and Gas, as
wen as promotions for programs like recycling and the City's anti-litter campaign.
There are some technical problems with the current streaming, and the application
needs to be upgraded. In recent years, several national vendors have developed
integrated video services for municipal governments, providing opportunities for
e>epanded applications, staff efficiencies, and cost savings.
In developing a solution. City staff reviewed three proposals for video stream
services:
1. Quadrant Productions - annual cost of $23,400, with additional cost for high
bandwidth usage; does not include document attachment, automated
archiving, search or indexing, remote live and archived web cast, internal
video streaming, or transfer of tape, cd, and dvd to video and storage
2. GovTV - annual cost of $35,796; does not include document attachment,
automated archiving, search or indexing, remote live and archived web cast,
internal video streaming, or transfer of tape, cd, and dvd to video and storage
3. Granicus - year one cost of $51,388, annual cost thereafter of $21,600;
includes document attachment, automated archiving, search and indexing,
remote live and archived web cast, internal web cast and archiving, transfer of
tape, cd and dvd to video and storage
GlBnicus video streaming services provide automated archiving, "jump-to" indexing
for video and documents, and keyword searches for archived media. For example,
v~rs will be able to see the City Council meeting video along with the agenda
dacument on the same web page and quickly move both to specific items.
Additional capacity for communications and training through both external and
internal video stream services is possible. Granicus' year one cost includes set-up,
configuration, development, installation of onsite equipment, onsite training, web site
integration, storage and distribution. After this implementation, annual costs will be
lower man other options, wniie providing mure se. vil;t:::s. GI dll'\;uis offers redundant,
high-speed network distribution with unlimited bandwidth and eliminate the problems
of high bandwidth usage associated with internal and archive viewing. Police and
Fire will be able to web cast live from their facilities for regular communications with
and training for their staff. City departments, such as Human Resources, will be able
to web cast personnel meetings and training in one session with a live web cast from
the City Council chambers, with automated archives for future reference. Video can
be transferred easily from tape, cd, or dvd to web files. Categorized media libraries
can be maintained securely by individual departments.
City staff recommends Granicus video stream services, which provide significant
enhancements, functionality, and efficiencies. In addition, Granicus affords the
opportunity for potential future services, such as automated meeting agendas,
mutes and voting.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
September 19, 2006
AGl.NDA ITEM: Motion authorizing the City Manager or his designee to execute an annual joint
f'un4ing agreement with the United States Geological Survey (USGS), U. S. Department of the
Interior, for the continuation of surface water data collection and limited studies by the USGS for the
City's water supply activity; and providing for the City to pay the USGS the amount $221,710, out of
a to1!al project cost of$280,485 during the federal fiscal year October 1,2006 through September 30,
2007.
ISSUE: The United States Geological Survey (USGS) established automated river gauging stations
to gather and maintain accurate records of all inflows and releases in the water reservoir system. In
order to continue with the annual watershed gauging program, an annual joint funding agreement
between the City and the USGS is necessary.
FUJlfDING: Funds are budgeted in the Wesley Seale Dam (530000-4010-30200) and Choke Canyon
Reservoir (530000-4010-30210) activities of the Water Fund for a total available of$221,710.
RECOMMENDA TION: The City Council authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute
the agreement.
L~
~""'-
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
In 1981, the City requested the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to establish automated river
gaucing stations to gather and maintain accurate records of all inflows and releases in the water
reservoir system. This was necessary to comply with Texas Water Rights Permit No. 3358, which
req.red that specified releases from the reservoir system be made to the bays and estuaries. The
initial joint funding agreement was approved by the City Council in 1984, and it provides funds for
Ge0logical Survey operations on the Nueces, Frio and Atascosa rivers and tributaries, and at Lake
Corpus Christi and Choke Canyon Reservoir.
The USGS maintains all equipment, i.e. stream flow stations, data collection platforms, rain gauges,
and analyzes the data gathered to provide gauge height readings, discharge readings, and reservoir
content information. The City funds a portion of the operational costs of the stream flow and full
service data collection platforms and the full cost of rain gauges and surface discharge gauges below
the two dams. The National Weather Service also uses the data collected to predict floods.
When fully implemented in 1984, the program included thirteen stations; additional stations have
beel'l added since bringing the total to eighteen. Additional water quality monitoring points have also
beeD added the last several : ears.
The costs of data collection platforms and stream flow stations are shared by the USGS and the City
of Corpus Christi, with the costs of other services borne entirely by the City. Funds are budgeted
each year in the Water Department operating budget for the Citis share of the joint funding. Funds
are budgeted in the Wesley Seale Darn (530000-40]0-30200) and Choke Canyon Reservoir
1530000-4010-30210) activities of the Water Fund for a total available of$221,710.

PulfO- of Reouest: Condominium/apartment development
SU~J1Iarv:
· The applicant originally requested a change of zoning from "R-IB" One-family Dwelling District to
an "A-I" Multiple Family Dwelling District for a condominium / apartment development on 1.0 acre.
The applicant has revised his request to a "R-2" Multiple Family Dwelling District with a PUD-2
Planned Unit Development Overlay-2.
· Originally, twenty condominium or apartment units with ten units each in two buildings were
proposed but the request has been reduced to two buildings with six units in each building.
· Traffic generated by the maximum development in the "R-lB" District could generate 48 to 70
vehicle trips per day at five to seven units per acre (trip generation rate at 9.56 trips per day). The
proposed twelve condominium or apartment units are estimated to generate 70 vehicle trips per day at
twelve units per acre (trip generation rate at 5.86 trips per day). In conclusion, the trip generation
between the "R-IB" zoning and the proposed zoning / density is comparable.
· Sandra Lane is a 50 wide right-of-way without curb and gutter and contains a narrow 17 foot wide
pavement section. Traffic capacity is estimated to be 1 ,000 trips per day. Existing uses of seven
single family residences and the exiting traffic from the Teachers Credit Union could generate
approximately 1 00 trips per day.
· The proposed development will be reqUIred to improve the portion of Sandra Lane adjacent to the
property. Other sections of Sandra Lane will be improved as development occurs or as part of a City
capital improvement program.
· An eight inch wastewater line was installed by the City as part of the Airline Road improvement
project in 2003.
· A six Inch water line is located in the right-of-way. A pressure test would be required to determine if
sufficient pressure exists to meet the fire code, otherwise an eight inch line would be required.

· The requested "R-2" Multiple Family Dwelling District is generally consistent with the City's Future
Land Use Plan map uses and densities.
· The area is in transition due to recent rezonings and development of commercial and multi-family

· The "R-2" district with a PUD-2 Overlay is consistent with the City's desire for infill development on
bypassed lots

Traffic generated by the maximum development in the "R-IB" District could generate 48 to
70 vehicle trips per day at five to seven units per acre (trip generation rate at 9.56 trips per
day). The proposed twelve condominium or apartment units are estimated to generate 70
vehicle trips per day at twelve units per acre (trip generation rate at 5.86 trips per day). In
conclusion, the trip generation between the "R-I B" zoning and the proposed zoning I density
is comparable.
Sandra Lane is a 50 wide right-of-way without curb and gutter and contains a narrow 17 foot
wide pavement section. Traffic capacity is estimated to be 1 ,000 trips per day. Existing uses
of seven single family residences and the exiting traffic from the Teachers Credit Union
could generate approximately I 00 trips per day.

The proposed development will be required to dedicate additional right-of-way for Sandra
Lane adjacent to the property. Additional Sandra Lane right-of-way will be dedicated and
improved as development occurs or as part of a City capital improvement program.

of Sandra Lane which is parallel to Saratoga Boulevard is in a transition stage. The subject
property is vacant as well as the surrounding area to the north and south with single family
residential located to the east and west. The area development plan calls for low density
residential and Mr. Payne noted that Sandra Lane will be partially improved through the
development of this project. The applicant has reduced the previous request from twenty (20)
units to twelve (12) units consisting of six (6) units per building. Staff recommends approval of a
"R-2" Multiple Dwelling District with a Planned Unit Development-2 overlay subject to the site
plan submitted and six (6) conditions:
Heil!ht: Buildings shall not exceed two stories.

property across Up River Road.
. ZoBing: The "B-1 A" District provides primarily for retail shopping, personal service and offIce uses
to serve the needs of a reSIdential neighborhood. This district is intended for use where conversion of
residential uses to non-residential uses is occurring on arterial and collector streets.
. The "B-1 A" District regulations require the following:
. Structures must be located at least 50 feet from residential property lines.
. Canopy trees required In the rear setback of the property adjacent to single-family residential.

Page 2
I. The Request: The applicant is requesting a change of zoning for 4.447 acres out of a 10 acre
tract from "R-l B" One-Family Dwelling District to "B-1 A" Neighborhood Business District.
. The applicant proposes an architectural finn office building approximately 10,000 to 15,000
square feet with one or two tenants that would lease space.
· Existing Land Use: The subject property is being subdivided out of a 10 acre tract out of
Tract 7, Abstract 850, Survey 442 and is currently undeveloped. It is located on the north
side of Up River Road at the intersection of Japonica Drive. Residential land uses are located
to the south of the property across Up River Road.
. Zoning: The "B-1 A" District provides primarily for retail shopping, personal service and
office uses to serve the needs of a residential neighborhood. This district is intended for use
where converSlOn of residential uses to non-residential uses is occurring on arterial and
collector streets
j
i
ell
. The "B-l A" District regulatlOns require the following:
. Structures must be located at least 50 feet from residential property lines.
. Canopy trees required in the rear setback of the property adjacent to single-family
residential.
. Screening fence is required
. Delivery and loading areas shall not be located within fifty (50) feet of the property line
abutting residential district.
· Limited hours for loading and unloading of supplies or merchandise (6:30 a.m. to 10:00
p.m.)
. Exterior lighting shall be directed and shielded away from adjacent residences and public
rights-of-way.
. Utilities: The proposed office building will connect to public utilities.
. Transportation: Development of this property with the proposed office building could
generate approximately 24 vehIcle trip ends per day. The subject property is located on Up
River Road, which is designated as a primary collector roadway in the Urban Transportation
Plan. The Plan states the purpose of a primary collector is to provide access to commercial
developments andlor several neighborhoods and may intersect with one or two arterial
streets. Primary collector streets serve medium to high density housing, high schools, public
facilities, and business uses. Access to the project will only be available from Up River
Road, as there are no frontage roads along this portion of Interstate Highway 37.

The subject property is currently vacant. In July 1995, a change of zoning to a "B-4" General
Business District on the subject property and additional property to the west was denied by the
Planning Commission for the development of apartments, a convenience store, and mini-storage
uses. Upon action of the Planning Commission, the applicant (First Family Church of Corpus
Christi) withdrew the case. The case received 27% opposition at the Planning Commission level.
In November 2005, a change of zoning to an "1-2" Light Industrial District was requested on the
adjacent property to the west for the development of a vehicle auction site. The case received
20% opposition at the Planning Commission level. The Planning Commission denied the "1-2"
request and in lieu thereof, approval of a "B-1 A" Neighborhood Business District. City Council
also denied the "1-2" request and lieu thereof, approval of a "B-1A" Neighborhood Business
District.
Due to the significant neighborhood opposition to the previous zoning requests on this property,
the applicant has been encouraged to meet with the residents prior to the public hearing.

CHAPTER 27
HOME RENTAL REHABILITATION
PROGRAM
CHAPTER 27
HOME RENTAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM
PURPOSE
The HOM E Rental Rehabilitation Program is authorized by the Cranston-Gonzales National Affordable
Housing Act (NAHA) of 1990. The Act authorizes funds to units of general local government to help support
the acquisition, construction and rehabilitation of publicly/privately owned real property to be used for primarily
residential rental purposes. The purpose of the program is to increase the City's supply of standard units
affordable to low income tenants by: (1) providing an incentive and affordable means for owners of rental
properties to rehabilitate their properties; (2) providing funding for construction of new units to increase
affordable rental housing stock. Both single-family and multi-family rental properties city-wide are eligible with
priority given to existing structures already occupied by low income tenants.
FINANCING METHOD
The Corpus Christi Community Improvement Corporation (CCCIC) uses HOME funds to provide low interest
loans or grants for acquisition, rehabilitation or new construction. The program requires that the owner provide
a match of 25 percent of the rehabilitation cost. New construction requires a 30 percent match by owner. The
capRal provided by the owner may be obtained from a private financial institution and CCCIC will consider
subordinating its lien due to matching fund requirements.
Loans approved through CCCIC's HOME Rental Rehabilitation Program will be at a 3 percent interest rate
with negotiable maturity not to exceed 20 years with the first 5 years deferred at owner/investor's option. Long
term rent and occupancy controls will be required for participation in this program. (Federal Statute
Requirement)
NEW CONSTRUCTION
New construction will be allowed provided the construction is consistent with the City Comprehensive Housing
AffOfdability Strategy. Emphasis will be given to addressing the needs of large families, persons with
disabilities and single room occupancy This activity will be eligible city-wide.
TENANT ASSISTANCE
The City of Corpus Christi will require the provision of assistance by the owner/investor of a proposed project
to eligible tenants required to move temporarily as a result of the rehabilitation. Such tenants will be
reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the temporary relocation.
Appropriate advisory services, including advance written notice, will be provided by the City to eligible tenants.
Should displacement occur as a result of rehabilitation in a project, relocation assistance as per the Uniform
Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act will be provided by the City.
ELIGIBILITY
Applicants must be the owner of the property to be rehabilitated or have an option or contract to
purchase the property The contract may be contingent on financing approval.
2 The property must be used for primarily residential rental uses.
3 The property must be physically and economically feasible for rehabilitation and must have code
vlolation( s) present.
4 The applicant must be able and willing to assume rehabilitation costs not covered by the loan.
S The applicant must be willing to abide by all terms and conditions of the HOME Rental Rehabilitation
Program, including equal opportunity and fair housing, affirmative marketing, tenant relocation
assistance and lead-based paint requirements.
D. I he Investor must provide a pro-torma ShOWing an eqUitable return on the Investment with a
minimum subsidy from this program.
50
'!!fIIIllli' "-
The building being considered for rehabilitation must have a future structural life exceeding the
requested maturity,
8 The properties, after rehabilitation, must meet the City of Corpus Christi Building and Housing
Standards Code
9, Eligible projects that contain 12 or more dwelling units shall comply with Davis-Bacon wage
requirements
10. Investor or Contractor is responsible for obtaining all appropriate permits.
ELIGIBLE REHABILITATION COSTS
The actual rehabilitation costs necessary to meet the Neighborhood Housing Standards. The Department of
Community Development's Neighborhood Housing Standards have been designed to ensure that all properties
rehflbilitated through the Housing Rehabilitation Program will be, after rehabilitation, safe, decent, and
sanitary, and in compliance with all applicable provisions of the City's Housing Code. In order to comply with
the Neighborhood Housing Standards, the following items must be considered in the scope of rehabilitation.
Housing Code Requirements. All housing code violations must be corrected.
IncipIent Code Violations. Items that are not yet violations but are likely to become ones within a short
time period. It is recommended that these items be included in the rehabilitation.
Section 8 Existing Housing Quality Standards. In order that the units can be made available to
Section 8 certificate holders, all Housing Quality Standards must be met.
Cost-Effective Energy Conservation Standards as specified.
Improvements to permit the use of rehabilitated units by handicapped persons.
Meeting the Secretary of the Interior Standards for Historic Preservation when the project is eligible
for inclusion on the Historic Register or contributes to the significance of a historic neighborhood.
Converting smaller units into larger units when necessary to meet the requirement for two- or three-
bedroom units; or converting single family into multi-family units when consistent with zoning
regulations and necessary in order to make a project financially feasible. However, conversion costs
will only be eligible when no displacement will result and if the majority of the rehabilitation costs are
necessitated to meet the Neighborhood Housing Standards.
Other costs (soft costs) that are associated with the rehabilitation or financing including, but not limited to:
~
3
4
5
6
7
Architectural, engineering or related professional services required in the preparation of rehabilitation
plans and drawings or write-ups
2 Costs associated with contract administration and construction superviSion, including costs of
processing and settling the financing for a project, such as credit reports, fees for Title evidence, fees
for recording and filing of legal documents, building permits, attorney's fees, private appraisal fees and
fees for an independent rehabilitation cost estimate. Luxury items, i.e. improvements of a type of
quality which substantially exceeds that customarily used in the locality for properties of the same
general type as the property to be rehabilitated, and which are likely to result in a rent higher than the
Fair Market Rent, are not eligible for HOME Rental Rehabilitation funds and may not be included in
the rehabilitation project.
