in the city. The Corpus Christi Historical Site Survey of 1991 noted it was one of the few
High Victorian `gingerbread" houses remaining in Corpus Christi. Cat W. T. Ropes was
retired army officer and brother to Col. Elisia Ropes, who stared the Ropes Boom in
Corpus Christi that fell in financial ruin in 1893. The home was built in 1890. This is one of
the few remaining intact representations of Col. Ropes buildings in Corpus Christi.
MOVING CONTRACT: The house moving contract is within the administrative authorized
level for staff award ($49,400.00). The house moving contractor will construct the
foundation and place the house on the foundation.
ADDITIONAL WORK: Funding is being appropriated to pay for utility relocations, utility
taps and connections, and to secure the house. This provides the minimal funds to move
and stabilize the house.
Fund raising will be undertaken to pay for finish work including reattachment of the porch,
replacing the roof, siding and doors for rear of the house, ADA access, painting, flooring,
electrical repairs, plumbing, HVAC and an elevator. That work to restore the house will be
undertaken in future. Council will be asked to award construction contracts as necessary.
FUNDING: Funding is available upon approval of the appropriation ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION: ME DATION: Staff recommends approval of the ordinance as presented.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
PUBLIC HEARING — ZONING (City Council Action Date: October 30, 2007)
Case No. 1007-01, Southside Ventures, L - A change of zoning from a "R-1B" one - family Dwelling
District, "R-113/SP" One - family Dwelling District with a Special Permit and "B-1" Neighborhood Business
District to a "R-1C" one - Family Dwelling District on 32.82 acres of land situated i
Agenda Memorandum
Case No 1007-01 (Southside Ventures, LP)
Page 2
• The proposed "R-1C" One - family Dwelling District will be an expansion of the existing
"R-1C" One - family Dwelling District currently developed as a single-family residential subdivision
to the south.
• Utilities: Prior to issuance of the building permit, platting of the property is required. Platting will
locate and define where the subject property will connect to city water and waste water systems.
• Transportation: Based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, the
potential traffic generated with the proposed small lot subdivision could generate approximately
3,170 vehicle trip ends per day versus 2,370 vehicle trip ends per day if developed with the "R-1B"
zoning density. The property will be served by Weber Road off of Bratton Road which is a local
street.
• Comprehensive Plan /Future Land Use: The future land use map recommends low density and
medium density residential for the subject property. The proposed use as low density residential is
consistent with the surrounding land uses and the Comprehensive Plan.
Notification: Of the twenty -eight notices mailed to the surrounding property owners, zero (0) were
returned in favor and zero (0) were returned in opposition. The 20% rule is not invoked. This case is
considered non - controversial. State law 20% rule is invoked when property owners who own 20% of
the land within the 200 foot radius of the subject property are opposed. Invoking the 20% rule
requires a three - quarters favorable vote of the City Council for a change of zoning to be approved,
rather than a simple majority. Unless such proposed change is approved by the Planning
Commission such change shall not become effective except by a favorable vote of a majority plus one
of the City Council present and voting.

PUBLIC HEARING — ZONING (City Council Action Date: October 30, 2007)
Case No. 1007-02. A Texas Central Co.: A change of zoning from a "R-1B" One- family Dwelling
llin
District to an "I -2" Light Industrial District (Tract) 1 and a "I-3" Heavy Industrial District (Tract 2),
15.38 acres (Tract 1) and 0.029 acres (Tract 2) of land situated in Lot 2, Block 7 of Bohemian Colony
Lands, located approximately 700 feet south of the intersection of Frederick Drive and Ayers Street.
Plannin Commission & Staff's Recommendation October 3 2007 : Approval of the "1 -2" Light
Industrial District for Tract 1 and denial of an "1-3" Heavy Industrial District for Tract 2, and in lieu of,
approval of an "1-2" Light Industrial District with a Special Permit on Tract 2, for one (1) 10,000 gallon
above ground fuel tank for the storage of unleaded gasoline, subject to a site plan, and approval of the Fire
Marshal and Zoning Board of Adjustment.
Requested Council Action: Approval of the "1 -2" Light Industrial District for Tract 1 and denial of an
"1 -3" Heavy Industrial District for Tract 2, and in lieu of, approval of an "I -2" Light Industrial District
with a Special Permit on Tract 2, for one (1) 10,000 gallon above ground fuel tank for the storage
of unleaded gasoline, subject to a site plan, and approval of the Fire Marshal and Zoning Board
of Adjustment.
Summary:
• Request: The applicant is requesting a change of zoning from "R-1B" " One - mil Dwelling District
to "I-f2" Light Industrial District on Tract 1 and "1-3" Heavy- Industrial District on Tract 2. Tract 1,
which consists of 1538 acres located between the Crosstown Extension and Ayers Street, will
provide the future construction of an AEP office building, open storage of electrical service
materials and vehicle fleet parking. The applicant is also requesting "1-3" Heavy- Industrial District
on Tract 2 for a fuel tank pad site measuring 1,250 square foot in area to accommodate a 10,000
gallon above ground unleaded gasoline fuel tank for AEP fleet trucks and equipment for onsite
refueling.
• Zoning: The purpose of the "1-2" Light Industrial zoning district is to provide for a wide variety of
mixed light industrial uses including light manufacturing, open storage, fabrication, warehousing,
and wholesale distributing. The "I -3" Heavy Industrial District provides for industrial operations of
all types. Certain potentially hazardous industries, activities and installations including the location
of an above ground fuel storage tank are permitted in an "I -3" District only after public hearing and
review to assure the protection of the public interest and surrounding property owners. In addition,
Section 21-3 "Objectionable Uses of the Zoning Ordinance ", also requires the Zoning Board of
Adjustment and the Fire Marshall to review the location of the above- ground gasoline tank to
ensure that the public health, safety, morals, and general welfare will be properly protected, and that
necessary safeguards will be provided for the protection of surrounding property and persons.
• Article 24 of the Zoning Ordinance, requires a minimum front yard setback of twenty (20) feet
without a minimum side or rear yards setback for both the "I -2" and "I -3" zoning districts.
• Existing Land Uses: The subject property is currently vacant with approximately 562 feet of
frontage along Ayers Street and approximately 820 feet of frontage along the Crosstown Extension
(State Highway 286). AEP plans to locate a truck utility fleet service facility office building and
open storage of electrical service materials on the subject property. This facility will include an

unleaded gasoline fueling area located on 1,20 square feet of area identified as Tract 2. The
proposed site is bordered immediately to the north by open agricultural farm land with residential
lots approximately 500 feet north of the subject property. Agricultural farm land and an existing
power substation are adjacent to the south of the subject property.
• Utilities: Water and Wastewater service is available to the property.
• Transportation: Based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, the
potential traffic generated by this proposed industrial use could possibly generate between 150 and
200 vehicle trips per day. The property will be served by Ayers Street to the east, an A -1 Arterial,
with the Crosstown Extension (State Highway 286) frontage road to the west. Ayers Street will be
the primary driveway access point to the proposed open storage material yard area and office
facility. Any driveway access onto the Crosstown frontage road will require Texas Department of
Transportation review and approval.
• Comprehensive Plan/ Future Land Use: The future land map recommends a light industrial use
for the subject property and adjacent properties to the north and south, but does not recommend
heavy industrial uses for the subject property or the immediate area. The light industrial uses
proposed are consistent with the Westside Area Development Plan, however, the 1 0,000 gallon
above ground fuel storage tank is considered an objectionable use requiring a heavy industrial
zoning district and, therefore, i

• Comprehensive Plan /Future Land Use: The future land map recommends a light
industrial use for the subject property and adjacent properties to the north and south, but
does not recommend heavy industrial uses for the subject property or the immediate area.
The light industrial uses proposed are consistent with the Westside Area Development Plan;
however, the 10,000 gallon above ground fuel storage tank is considered an objectionable
use requiring a heavy industrial zoning district and, therefore, is not consistent with the
adopted land use plan regarding this area.

Department Comments
• Above ground fuel tanks require an "I,3" Heavy Industrial District and are considered an
objectionable use; therefore, further approval is required by means of a Special Use
Exception granted by the Zoning Board of Adjustment.
• A Special Permit, in lieu of the "1-3" Heavy Industrial District, for the fuel tank pad site per
the site plan and metes and bounds description presented to the Planning Commission, City
Council, and Board of Adjustment, would accommodate the accessory use of a storage tank
for unleaded gasoline as requested by the applicant without unnecessarily creating
opportunities for other incompatible heavy industrial uses to develop or locate within the
"1-3" District.
• The site plan with the proposed tank location has been approved by the City Fire Marshall.

A quorum was declared and the meeting was called to order at 5 :30 p.m.
Iv. ZONING
1. New Zoning
b. Case No. 1007 -02
AEP Texas Central Company: A change of zoning from a
"R-1B" One-Family Dwelling District to a "I-2" Light Industrial
District (Tract 1 ) and al-3" Heavy Industrial District (Tract 2)
resulting in a change of land use from vacant to industrial
15.38 acres (Tract 1) and 0.029 acres (Tract 2) of land situated in Lot 2,
Block 7 of Bohemian Colony Lands, located approximately 700 feet south
of the intersection of Frederick Drive and Ayers Street.
Wes Vardeman, City Planner/Development Services, presented the above case via Power Point,
stating the applicant is AEP Texas Central Company and the property is located north of Saratoga
Boulevard and south of Holly Road, approximately half way between Holly and Saratoga and is
bounded by the Crosstown Extension and Ayers Street. Mr. Vardeman stated the existing land use
across the street to the east of the subject property is mixed use, including mobile homes, commercial

development and an existing utility substation, as well as farm land. Mr. Vardeman stated the request is
to rezone 15.38 acres from a "R-1B" One - Family Dwelling District to a "1-2" Light Industrial District
for Tract 1 and 0M29 acres to an "1 -3" Heavy Industrial District for Tract 2, resulting in a change of land
use from vacant to industrial. The "t -2" District will allow for the future construction of an office
building, the open storage of electrical service materials, and service fleet vehicle parking, and within
the "1-3" District a 10,000 gallon above ground unleaded fuel storage tank for AEP fleet trucks and
equipment on site refueling.
Mr. Vardeman stated that Article 24 of the Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum front yard
setback of twenty feet without a minimum side or rear yard setback for both the "1-2 I -3" zoning
districts. There is also no height restriction. A zero lot line structure or building will require a fire rated
wall, and all outside storage must be screened from public view. Mr. Vardeman stated that the
"1 -3" Heavy Industrial District is the only district which allows for sexually oriented businesses. The
future land map recommends a light industrial use for the subject property, but does not recommend
heavy industrial uses for the subject property or any adjacent properties within the surrounding area.
Mr. Vardeman stated that of the fourteen (14) notices mailed, zero were returned in opposition and zero
were returned in favor. Staff recommends approval.
Public hearing was opened.
Nobody came forward in support or in opposition.
Public hearing was closed.
Motion was made by Commissioner Nadkarni for approval of staff recommendation and was
seconded by Commissioner Loeb. Motion passed unanimously with Chairman Stone and
Commissioner Skr bars yk being absent.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
PUBLIC HEARING — ZONING (City Council Action Date: October 30, 2007)
base N . ' -0 Shoreline oaks Inc.: A change of zoning from an "T-1B" Manufactured Home Park
District to a "R-1C" one - family Dwelling District, 46302 acres out of Lots 7, 8, and 9, Section 40, Flour
Muff and Encinal Farm and Garden Tracts, located approximately 1,100 feet west of the intersection of Plow
Bluff Drive and Purdue Road.
Planning Commission (September 19, 2007): Approval of the "R-1C" C" One - family Dwelling District (for
original request of 46.502 acres.)
staff Recommendation,: Approval of the "R-1C" Ore -farml Dwelling District (for new request of
21.569 acres, which is less than originally requested by the applicant.)

between the manufactured home and the outer edge of the open carport or porch. A manufactured
home shall be located a minimum of five feet from the access drive.
• The applicant has indicated modular homes (industrialized housing) will be developed in this
residential subdivision. Modular homes (industrialized housing) are recognized by the building
code as units that meet the same requirements as conventional single - family homes. Such homes are
certified by the manufacturer to meet local recognized building codes, such as the International
Residential Code (IRC.) Additional information on modular homes has been provided in the
Attachment.
• Existing Land Uses: The subject property is currently vacant and 1,100 feet from the Cayo del Oso.
The area being rezoned will consist of the proposed Phase II and Phase III of a multi -phase
residential development. The property is bordered to the north and south by vacant property, to the
east by Shoreline Oaks Subdivision (Phase I development) and to the west by vacant property that
has been omitted from the original zoning request.
• Utilities: Water and Wastewater service is available for the continued expansion and development
of the subject property.
• Transportation: The property will be served by Flour Bluff Drive, an A -1 Arterial as identified in
the Urban Transportation Plan and has an ultimate design standard width of 95 feet consisting of
five lanes, one of which is a continuous left turning lane. Based on the Institute of Transportation
Engineers Trip Generation Manual, the potential traffic generated for the proposed Phase II and III
one hundred and six (106) residential lots would be approximately 1,060 average daily trips.
• Comprehensive Plan /Future Land Use: The future land use map recommends Mobile Home for
the subject property. The request is generally consistent with the future land use plan because the
proposed use of single- family homes is similar to the dwelling density and trade generation
planned for this area. Both the density and traffic counts would be reduced when developed with
low density residential.
Notification: Of the forty -nine (49) notices mailed to the surrounding property owners, zero were
returned in favor and zero (0) were returned in opposition. The 20% rule is not invoked. This case is
considered non - controversial. State law o% rule is invoked when property owners who own 20% of
the land within the Zoo foot radius of the subject property are opposed. Invoking the 20% rule
requires a three - quarters favorable vote of the City Council for a change of zoning to be approved,
rather than a simple majority. Unless such proposed change is approved by the Planning
Commission such change shall not become effective except by a favorable vote of a majority plus one
of the City Council present and voting.

Attachment: Modular Horne Industrialized Housin Information
What Are Site Built Homes?
• They are constructed entirely at the building site.
• They conform to all state, local or regional codes where the house is located.
• Often called 'stick- built houses.
• A well- built, cared for site -built home generally increases in value over time, although its
location plays a key role in value.
What Are Modular Homes?
• Modular homes are built in sections at a factory.
• Modular homes are built to conform to all state, local or regional building codes at their
destinations.
• Sections are transported to the building site on troop beds, then joined together by local
contractors.
• Local building inspectors check to make sure a modular home's structure meets
requirements and that all finish work is done properly.
• Modular homes are sometimes less expensive per square foot than site built houses.
• A well -built modular home should have the same longevity as its site -built counterpart,
increasing in value over time.
What Are Manufactured Homes?
• Formerly referred to as mobile homes or trailers, but with many more style options than
in the past.
• Manufactured houses are built in a factory.
• They conform to a Federal building code, called the HUD code, rather than to building
codes at their destinations.
• Manufactured homes are built on a non - removable steel chassis.
• Sections are transported to the building site on their own wheels.
• Multi -part manufactured units are joined at their destination.
• Segments are not always placed on a permanent foundation, making them more difficult
to re- finance.
• Building inspectors check the work done locally (electric hook up, etc.) but are not
required to approve the structure.
• Manufactured housing is generally less expensive than site built and modular homes.
• Manufactured homes sometimes decrease in value over time.
Modular and manufactured homes are completely different types of structures. Here's one
important difference:
• Manufactured homes (formerly called mobile homes), are built to conform to the same
federal code, no matter where they will be delivered.
• A modular home conforms to all building codes in the area they will be erected, and in
many cases construction exceeds the required codes.
What Do the Differences Mean?
Restrictive Covenants and Deed Restrictions
• Communities generally have no restrictions against traditional, site built homes.
• Many housing developments do set minimum size requirements and stipulate you must
build a house that conforms to published restrictive covenants or be approved by an
architectural review committee.
• Most developments allow modular homes. Some do not, but in those cases the
restrictions seem to have been imposed because of an ongoing confusion about the
differences between modular homes and manufactured homes.
• Restrictive covenants and deed restrictions often exclude manufactured homes
City of Corpus Christi
Division 2. Building Code, Section 14-231 Building Construction Code,
Appendix L: Industrialized Housing Definition
Industrialized housing. A residential structure that is (1) designed for the occupancy of one or
more families, (2) constructed in one or more modules or constructed using one or more modular
components built at a location other than the permanent site, designed to be used as a
permanent residential structure when the module or the modular component is transported to the
permanent site and erected or installed on a permanent foundation system, and constructed
under the authority of Chapter 1202 of the Texas Occupations Code. Each transportable modular
section or modular component must have decals or insignia issued by the Texas Commission of
Licensing and Regulation to indicate compliance with Chapter 1202 and the Commission's
implementing rules.
(1) The term industrialized housing includes the plumbing, heating, air conditioning and
electrical systems contained in the structure.
(2) The term industrialized housing does not include (1) a residential structure that
exceeds three stories or 49 feet in height as measured from the finished grade elevation at
the building entrance to the peak of the roof, (2) housing constructed of a sectional or
panelized system that does not use a modular component, or a ready -built home
constructed in a manner in which the entire living area is contained in a single unit or
section at a temporary location for the purpose of selling and moving the home to another
location.

with the future land use map. The future land use map identifies the subject site as Mobile
Home. However, staff is in support of the proposed zoning change from "T-1B" to R-1 C ",
due to low density residential being compatible with the surrounding land uses, as well as
being similar in the density and traffic generation of a manufactured home land use.

Staffs Summary
Background:
During the City Council public hearing of October 16, 2007, the applicant requested for this item
to be tabled until October 30, 2007. The applicant has revised the request by reducing the land
area. The new request for "R-1C" One - family Dwelling District is for 21.569 acres, which is
24.93 acres less than the original subject property request of 46.502 acres. Therefore, the
remaining acreage that is being requested for withdrawal from the zoning change will remain the
current "T-1B" Manufactured Home Park District.
Summary:
• Request: The applicant has revised the request for a change of zoning from "T-1B"
Manufactured Home Park District to the "R -1C" One - Family Dwelling District for the
continued development of a multi -phase single - family residential subdivision. The revised
request will cover Phase II and III of this development. Phase 11 of the Shoreline Oaks
Subdivision will consist of forty -two (42) single - family lots and Phase III will consist of
sixty -four (64) single- family lots, for a total of one hundred and six (1 06) residential lots.
• Zoning: The purpose of the "R-1C" District is to provide for single - family residential
development together with such public buildings, schools, churches, public recreational
facilities and accessory uses normally compatible with residential surroundings.
• In Article 6A of the Zoning Ordinance, the "R-1C" One - Family Dwelling District requires a
minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet, with a maximum density of 9.68 dwelling units per
acre. The minimum front yard setback is twenty (20) feet with five (5) foot side and rear
yard setbacks. The maximum height of a structure may be twenty -six (26) feet or two (2)
stories. The minimum lot width within the "R-1C" District is forty -five (45) feet with a
30% open space requirement.
• In contrast, in Article 7A of the Zoning Ordinance the "T-1B" Manufactured Home Park
District requires a minimum area of at least five (5) acres in size with a minimum width
and/or depth of three hundred (300) feet located on a public street or highway. There is no
minimum lot area for a manufactured home site; however, there shall be no more than
twelve (12) manufactured home spaces per acre of gross site area The minimum side-to-

Planning Commission__ and Staff Recommendation (10/3/07): Planning Commission and Staff
recommend approval of the Unified Development Code (UDC) Parks Focus Group Final Report to
amend Section E.G. Public Open Space of the Platting Ordinance as a text amendment replacing the
current park dedication requirements, with one amendment to Section IV.G.1 o.b to allow a 50 percent
reduction of park dedication requirements for properties located in the Renewal Community. The
amendment is further described in the "Summary" section of this memo.
Staff is presenting the UDC Parks Focus Group recommended code revisions prior to the City Council
public hearings tentatively scheduled for November 13, 2007 and December 11, 2007. The proposed
text is provided in Attachment 11
On September 13, 2007 the UDC Parks Focus Group recommendations were presented to the
Development Services Advisory Committee (DSAG). The DSAG suggested a change to the proposed
amendment to Section I .G. . c) for subdivisions where all tots are for multifamily housing types
(Attachment B). DSAG suggested the dedication requirement should be one acre for each 200
proposed dwelling units, calculated at 75% of maximum zoning density with no ris or refunds,
assuming no zoning change made after the charge.
The proposed UDC Parks Focus Group's revisions, without change, were unanimously recommended
by the Park and Recreation Advisory Committee (PRAC) on September 13, 2007. PRAC discussed
and decided not to support DSAG's suggested change.
Presentation
UDC Parks Focus Group Final Report and Recommendation
Page 2
Bari round:
The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan, which was adopted in 2002, recommended that the
City's parkland dedication ordinance be updated. Issues to be addressed in any park dedication
ordinance revisions included:
1) Tying park dedication requirements to housing density. Currently, the ordinance requires the
same proportion and amount of land (or money in lieu of land) for a one unit per acre development as
for a 30 unit per acre development of the same parcel size (currently a 5% dedication.) While the
current dedication method is proportional and the acreage requirement is the same for either
development, the need for park and recreation facilities services is much greater for a 30 unit per acre
development.
2) Funding for Community and Regional Park needs. The current ordinance only collects funds
that can be spent on neighborhood park improvements within 1-V2 miles of the subdivision. A method
is needed to fund community and regional park improvements which would serve areas beyond the 1 -1
mile limit.
3) Collection of Park Dedication land or fees after platting has occurred. Currently, if a property is
platted under commercial or industrial zoning, park dedication is not required. The ordinance currently
does not have language that requires a collection of fees if the proposed use changes from commercial
or industrial to a residential use, or from single - family to a multi- family use (whereby density is
increased.) Residential land uses are permitted in the following non residential zoning districts: "AB"
Professional Office District, "B- l A" Neighborhood Business District, "13-1" Neighborhood Business
District, "B -2A" A" Barrier Island Business District, "B -2" Bayfront Business District, "BD" Corpus
Christi Beach Design District, and "B-4" General Business District.
4) Review of other Texas City Park Dedication Requirements. The update of the ordinance would
allow for a review of what other Texas cities require.
Summar :
The Parks Focus Group's members met once a month from January through July 2007 to review the
portions of the UDC that address parkland dedication. The Parks Focus Group was advised at the first
meeting that their recommendations for public open space would be the document presented at the
required public hearings before Planning Commission and City Council. However, the Group was also
advised that if staff took exception to any recommendation, that information would also be presented.
The Parks Focus Group is to be commended for their tireless work effort and final product. Staff
concurs with the Group's recommendations. Parks Focus Group recommendation highlights include:
• Review of the Community Enrichment Fund for funds paid in lieu of land dedication;
• 1 acre of park land dedication per 100 single family dwellings;
• 1 acre of park land dedication per 200 multi - family dwellings;
• The City may require a fee in liu of dedication — payment proportional to amount of land required
to be dedicated using the fair market value of the land at the time of construction start;

Park Development Fee — in addition to land dedication or fee in lieu, there is a $50 per dwelling
unit fee for Park, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan facilities (including Community and
Regional Parks.) Staff is proposing a 50% reduction of the park fees (similar to the reduction currently
applied to building permit fees) for properties within the Renewal Community boundaries that have not
previously satisfied the public open space dedication requirements; and
Fee would be collected prior to recordation of final plat.
During the presentation to the Planning Commission on September 19, 2007, Section IV.G.1 .b was
questioned as potentially increasing costs where the City is focusing on encouraging redevelopment
(downtown). This section requires a parkland dedication to be applied when development occurs. If
platted properties have not previously met public open space dedication requirements, dedication shall
be required at the time these properties are developed. The Planning Commission stated that properties
in areas the City is promoting redevelopment should not be required to pay additional money for parks.
Subsequently, staff proposed a 50% reduction of the park requirements for properties in the Renewal
Community. The Renewal Community is scheduled to expire in 2009; therefore the reduction would be
temporary (however, HUD has proposed to Congress that the program be extended to 2015.) Staff
suggested that the 50% reduction would be a logical expansion of the existing policy to discount
building permit fees by 50% for properties located in the Renewal Community Area. A map of the
Renewal Community is provided in Attachment C.
As part of the discussion at the Planning Commission public hearing, Staff presented an analysis of
park land needs in the reinvestment zone area. In general, according to the City's Park, Recreation and
Open Space Master Plan and national standards, the area is adequately served with sufficient park land.
However, the staff pointed out that there are a number of parks and open spaces that are currently
"underdeveloped" with only a minimum of existing improvements. Any fees collected from projects in
the Renewal Community would more than likely be spent on park facility improvements, rather than on
creating new parks. Such parks include: La Retama Park, Artesian Park, Blutcher Park, South Bluff
Park, the "Bayfront Park" project, green spaces below the bluff balustrade, as well as other
undeveloped or partially developed neighborhood and pocket parks in the area. As an estimate, park
improvements for these parks may cost several million dollars.
After discussion, the Planning Commission supported Staffs recommendation to amend Section
Iv..10.b. to include the fifty percent reduction of the open space dedication requirements in the
Renewal Community as follows:
F . G. 10. b. If a dedication requirement arose prior to the effective date of this Ordinance,
that dedication requirement shall be controlled by the public open space dedication
requirements in effect at the time such obligation arose, except that additional dedication shall
be required if the actual density of structures constructed upon the property is greater than the
former assumed density. Additional dedication shall be required only for the increase in density
and shall be based upon the ratio set forth in Section IV.. 5 of this section. Properties within
the Renewal Community boundaries that have not previously satisfied public open space
dedication requirements (previously a park dedication requirement) will be required to
pay fifty percent (50%) of the park dedication fee.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION:
Set a public hearing date for the 1 reading of the proposed text amendment on November 13, 2007.

Additional Background
In January 2005, the City entered into a contract with Duncan Associates to prepare the Unified
Development Code (UDC), a single source document combining our zoning, platting, and related
development regulations. During a 45-day public review period over forty (40) online comments were
submitted consisting of over five - hundred (500) different line items. Once the review of the comments
was completed, seven focus groups were established for the purpose of addressing the new code
provisions proposed under the draft UDC (dated May 2006). Each group selected a chair and an
assistant chair to conduct the meetings. Staff facilitates the meetings and provides support and
expertise for the subject areas. The UDC topics being reviewed by the different focus groups are as
follows:
• Signs
• Park Development
Landscaping
• Base Zoning
• Infrastnicture
• Shared Access
• Administrative Procedures
The Signs, Parks, and Landscaping Focus Groups have completed review of their respective sections
within the draft UDC. Staff is moving forward with the recommendations from these committees and
will be presenting them as text amendments to the current adopted regulations. The Parks revisions are
presented as a text amendment to the Corpus Christi Platting Ordinance Section Iv,. Public Open
Space.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA MEMORANDUM
City Council Action Date: October 30. 2007
AGENDA ITEM:
A. Resolution to support the Children, Youth and Family Plafform of the National League of
Cities and the Corpus Christi Commission on Children and Youth.
ISSUE: The City of Cor Christi's Commission on Children and Youth has revised their
2003 Commission on Children and Youth Master Plan. The 2007 Children, Youth and
Family Platform i
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Commission on Children and Youth CC was established on April 14, 1994 as an
official city of Corpus Christi Commission. The mission of CCY is to support a
comprehensive system of services and advance policies to meet the needs of children,
youth and their families.
In April 1997, City Council adopted the first Commission on Children and Youth Master
Flan which included four goals that pertained to the following areas: ensure Corpus Christi
youth grow up healthy, strong, educated, safe and economically secure, ensure that
Corpus Christi's children and youth reach adulthood in an environment free of crime and
victimization, increase the educational attainment of Corpus Christi's children and youth
and lastly, improve the current information collection and dissemination, and program
evaluation efforts so that effective programs are developed and maintained.
In 2003, CCY updated this master plan to include the following risk factors: family
management and family conflict, lack of commitment to school, parental attitude and
involvement in problem behavior, early academic failure, early onset of problematic
behavior, and uncoordinated information and accountability systems.
In January 2007, CCY embarked on updating their master plan (children, Youth and
Family Platform) to reflect the National League of Cities Strengthening Families and
improving outcomes for Children and Youth Platform. This NLC platform has been
adopted by several cities and towns across America in a nationwide initiative to promote
family and youth friendly communities.
City of Corpus Christi's Commission on Children and Youth
Children, Youth and Family Platform
2007
The City of Corpus Christi's Commission on Children and Youth (CCY) have worked on revising
their Children, Youth and Family Platform since January, 2007. Throughout the first half of 2007,
ccY has reviewed several platforms to include the National League of Cities style format. It was
agreed upon that the `national League of Cities" style of formatting was contemporary, easy to
follow and could lead to future strategic planning.
ccY concludes that there are currently five requirement areas which will be referred to as
"Essential Platform Components" that the City of Corpus Christi needs to be aware of and
should provide some response and solution. These areas are as follows: "Identify needs,
opportunities and priorities", "Promote and expand effective city - school collaboration",
"Encourage and support youth voice, engagement and leadership ", "Measure progress over
time" and "City government shall be responsive to children, youth and family issues ".
It is the professional opinion of the Commission on Children and Youth (CCY) that once the
Essential Platform Component's tasks are completed, key action steps that are specific in
nature should evolve and be considered as a second phase of this platform. Possible children,
youth and family key action steps are in the areas of: early childhood development, youth
development, education and after school, health and safety, youth in transition, family economic
success and neighborhood /community success to name a few.
This platform should be considered as a starting point for community leaders to strengthen
children, youth and families in Corpus Christi, Texas. In addition, it should conjure strong
discussions and actions among not only the community leaders but also among community
members as well. It is through strong discussions, enforced children, youth and family driven
policies and engaged community entities that positive outcomes will be seen in the areas of
children, youth and families.
COY recommends that the appropriate response of the City of Corpus Christi is to provide
possible solutions to these essential platform components. The recommended solutions are as
follows:
Essential Platform Components:

City of Corpus Christi's Commission on Children and Youth
Children, Youth and Family Plafform
2007
The City of Corpus Christi's Commission on Children and Youth (CCY) have worked on revising
their Children, Youth and Family Platform since January, 2007. Throughout the first half of 2007,
ccY has reviewed several platforms to include the National League of Cities style format. It was
agreed upon that the "National League of Cities" style of formatting was contemporary, easy to
follow and could lead to future strategic planning.
ccY concludes that there are currently five requirement areas which will be referred to as
"Essential Plafform Components" that the City of Corpus Christi needs to be aware of and
should provide some response and solution. These areas are as follows: "Identify needs,
opportunities and priorities ", "Promote and expand effective city- school collaboration",
"Encourage and support youth voice, engagement and leadership}", "Measure progress over
time" and "City government shall be responsive to children, youth and family issues".
It is the professional opinion of the Commission on Children and Youth (CCY) that once the
Essential Platform Component's tasks are completed, key action steps that are specific in
nature should evolve and be considered as a second phase of this platform. Possible children,
youth and family key action steps are in the areas of: early childhood development, youth
development, education and after school, health and safety, youth in transition, family economic
success and neighborhood community success to name a few.
This platform should be considered as a starting point for community leaders to strengthen
children, youth and families in Corpus Christi, Texas. In addition, it should conjure strong
discussions and actions among not only the community leaders but also among community
members as well. 11 is through strong discussions, enforced children, youth and family driven
policies and engaged community entities that positive outcomes will be seen in the areas of
children, youth and families.
ccY recommends that the appropriate response of the City of Corpus Christi is to provide
possible solutions to these essential platform components. The recommended solutions are as
follows:

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2007
Subject: Public Access Channel Rules and Procedures Violation Appeal
Agenda Item: Consideration of an appeal by Rolando Garza regarding the Corpus
Christi Cable Communications Commission's September 15, 2007, decision regarding
public access program.
Background:
Public access programs are broadcast on local cable channels pursuant to State and
local franchises with the cable companies. City ordinance has established rules and
procedures for public access programs. These are referred to as the Rules and
Procedures for Public Access Cablecasting, found in Code of Ordinances, Chapter 55,
Article XVIII of City Code of Ordinances, copy attached.
If a complaint is received that a particular program is in violation of the Rules and
Procedures for Public Access Cablecasting, then per Section 6 of the Rules and
Procedures, a written notice of the complaint is sent to the producer, and the producer
is instructed to appear at one of the next two regularly scheduled meetings of the Cable
Communications Commission to review the complaint with the producer. If the
Commission finds no grounds for the complaint, it is dismissed. If the Commission finds
grounds for the complaint, then it is counted as one violation. if there are three (3)
violations within six month period, the program is removed for 60 days. If a producer
does not appear at one of the two Commission meetings, the ordinance provides that
the program is removed for 60 days.
In this case, on July 20, 2007, the City received a complaint that Mr. Garzas July 16,
2007, program did not contain program identification, as required by City ordinance.
Public access programs must contain program identification within the first thirty
seconds of the program. Program identification includes producer name, title of
program and the program date. The program identification must appear at least ten
seconds in the audio or video at the first thirty seconds of each program.
On August 2, 2007, a letter was sent to Mr. Garza requesting his or a representative's
appearance at one of the next two Commission meetings (August 13 or September 17)
to discuss the violation and to keep his program on the air. Mr. Garza also received a
telephone call informing him of these meetings.
Mr. Garza did not attend the August 13, 2007 meeting. A reminder letter was sent to
him on August 21, 200 7, that he or a representative must appear at the September 17
Commission meeting, in order to keep his program on the air. Mr. Garza also received
a phone call reminding him of the meeting. Mr. Garza failed to appear during the
September 17, 2007 Commission meeting. The Commission called for discussion on
this violation at both meetings, but no one was present to discuss. Per City Ordinance,
if a producer or his representative fails to attend a Commission meeting within two
scheduled meetings, the producer and the series will be removed for sixty days. A letter
was sent informing him that his program would be removed for 60 days endin appeal
to the City Council.
Issue: The issue for City Council is whether to uphold the 60 day removal from
public access broadcasting.
The Council may grant or deny the appeal, or remand the matter back to the Cable
commission for further action. If the appeal is denied, then the producer and the
program are removed from public access channel broadcasting for 60 days.
If the appeal is granted, Mr. Garza will continue to broadcast his g r ram on public
access channel.
p
Recommended Process: The proceeding should be informal. In deciding this case
the Council acts in a quasi-judicial capacity; i.e. it will determine what the facts are.
Since Mr. Garza is appealing, he makes first presentation. The Commissioners will be
available to present any necessary information from the Commission's ers ective.
Since this is quasi- judicial matter, the Council may, but need not, solicit enera public
g p
comment. If the Council chooses to hear such comment, this could be done after
presentation by the parties, but before Council deliberation.
Copies of the complaint letter, letters to producer, letter of appeal, and Rules and
Procedures, and minutes of the Cable Commission meeting are attached. The
requirement for program identification is found on page 1, Section 1, of the Rules and
Procedures. The definition of "program identification" is found on page 4, Section 4, of
the Rules and Procedures. The procedure regarding violation of rules is found on
pages 6 and 7, Section 6 of the Rules and Procedures.

lottery is conducted.
Access channel (10 or 1 (Note: An individual producer must select one channel for
cablecasting of both first -run and repeat showings. Programs cannot be run on both
channels.)
Lotteries and schedules: There are two lottery periods. The spring lottery period begins
the first Sunday in June through the day preceding the first Sunday in December. The fall
lottery period begins the first Sunday in December through the day preceding the first
Sunday in June.
Producers will attend the time slot lottery as noted in a. and b. below. Two Cable
Communications Commissioners will attend each lottery. Lotteries will be conducted as
follows:
a. The spring lottery is conducted in the last seven days of April with the new time
slots actually beginning on the first Sunday in June. The PAUG Board of Directors shall
determine the day and time of the lottery.
b. The fall lottery is conducted in the last seven days of October with the new time
slots actually beginning on the first Sunday in December, The PAUG Board of Directors

the first choice of time slots and continuing until all numbers are issued.
The selection numbers will be determined by random selection.
Based on selection numbers, each producer, one -by -one, selects an available time slot.
After all producers select time slots for their first -run shows, producers of weekly
programs requesting a repeat showing will then select their time slots for one repeat
cablecast in same or reverse order as the initial time slots were selected, not to exceed
one repeat per show. A program may be cablecast as an original and repeat twice in the

periods. Producers of monthly programs will have one original cablecast and three
repeats in the same allotted time slot each month. This allows for four cablecasts of a

A business plan is like a road rra ; it shows you where you are in relation to where you
want to be. Whether Y ou believe in a business plan or not, starting a business involves
many ideas that need to be documented and actions that need to be taken. Many
businesses fail without a business plan, and furthermore, banks require one prior to
being considered for a loan. Contact:

you are not required to register a fictitious business name. If you choose a business
name that does not meet these parameters (such as JS Expert Roofing) and your
business is not registered with the state then state law requires you to file an assumed
name certificate with Nueces ces County. Please note that this statement does not protect
the business name.

that are required to file various business tax returns. EINs are used by employers, sole
proprietors, corporations, partnerships, non- profit organizations, trust and estates,
government agencies, certain individuals and other business entities. Federal Employer
ID numbers can be obtained by completing form SS -4 on -line or calling:

Division
Small Business Advocacy Program
small Business Advocacy plograft SBA
The City Procurement Division is committed to assisting local small businesses grow
and prosper. Towards that end, the City Procurement Division will encourage soliciting
informal bid opportunities from local small businesses where adequate competition
exists.
The Procurement Division through the SBA assists local small businesses and
historically underutilized businesses (HUBS) including Minority business enterprises
(MBE) and Women owned business enterprises (WBE). Registration through the City's
Procurement Division w bsite will assist these business enterprises to obtain
information regarding City contracts.
Companies wanting to do business with the City are required to complete a Request for
Supplier Information p act et. This form is available for completion and can be submitted
online on the City's Website. Use the following webpage address to pull up the form:
hrtt•: v w.ccta cas.corn .urchasin• su• •iier addform.cfm
The individual completing the form will enter the company name, the address, contact
information and phone and facsimile numbers. Additionally, the type(s) of products
and/or services that the business can provide will need to be completed. These
products cts and services are cross referenced to category numbers that are used by the
City to identify businesses that can provide the products or services that are being
procured.
We also request all suppliers to identify if they are HUB certified and whether they can
be classified as a Corpus Christi Small Business.
The City Purchasing Department is working with Del Mar College PTAC to establish a
database of contract bid and award data for the purpose of establishing a baseline. The
baseline will in turn provide a tool to help City Purchasing evaluate possible goals for
contract awards for small business and HUB businesses. Another project in negotiation
is an improvement of the City Purchasing On-line Vendor registration. The goal of this
project is to provide decentralized city purchasing activities access to the vendor
registration database, allow decentralized and centralized City Purchasing the ability to
generate reports from the database, and to provide a mechanism to track contract bids
and awards for the future to allow for evaluation. The goal is to improve access and
contracting opportunity for Corpus Christi small businesses and Corpus Christi HUB
businesses.
