AGENDA MEMORANDUM
City Council Action Date: April 21, 2009
AGENDA ITEM:
Ordinance appropriating $5,000 in the General Fund No. 1020 from a donation from the
Pollution Prevention Partnership to assist in the purchase and installation of bike racks on
City property in the downtown and bayfront area; changing FY 2008 -2009 Operating
Budget adopted by Ordinance 027776 to increase estimated revenues and appropriations
by $5,000 each; and declaring an emergency.
ISSUE: Approval of this item will result in the installation of several bike racks in the
downtown and bayfront area. The basis for the request is to provide support facilities
and infrastructure for the successful implementation of the City of Corpus Christi
Bicycle Transportation Plan. The Pollution Prevention Partnership applied for the
funding of this project from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).
The community need being addressed is transportation planning as it relates to air
quality, congestion, bayfront development that encourages green spaces and trails, and
livable communities. The need was identified due to the changing dynamics of the
downtown and bayfront area. Within the next few months, numerous residential lofts will
be opening in the downtown area. In addition, the bayfront development plan is being
implemented. Each of these projects requires green space, bicycle access and
infrastructure.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION: Council approval required for appropriation of funds
provided for this project through the Pollution Prevention Partnership.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: none
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of ordinance.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
During the fall of 2006, the Corpus Christi Beach Association discussed a civic project to
improve their neighborhood. On April 26, 2007, the group met with former City Manager,
George K. Noe to present their Corpus Christi Beach "Wants and Needs" List. Additional
meetings with Staff and Community Supporters were held during 2007 and fund - raising
efforts began.
In October of 2008, County Commissioner Peggy Banales announced that Nueces County
would purchase new playground equipment to be placed on city -owned land on Corpus
Christi Beach Park. The park improvements would be a City- County collaborative project.
The playground equipment (valued at approximately $13,000) was ordered and purchased
by Nueces County. The Corpus Christi Beach Association has contributed two thousand
five hundred dollars ($2,500) to build an accessible sidewalk to the playground area. The
City provided all labor to complete the improvement project. Currently the playground
equipment has been installed and all ADA requirements have been met.

BACKGROUND
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA), Coastal and Marine Habitat
Restoration Project through the Restoration and Recovery Act developed a grant program.
The grant announcement was made available the first part of March 2009 with
applications due April 6, 2009.
The Parks and Recreation Department met with Texas A &M University — Corpus Christi on
March 31, 2009 to discuss the potential for a joint application for the purpose of studying
and removal of Sargassum. TAMU -CC determined that there were up to ten (10) different
studies relating to Sargassum that could be included in the grant application. The Parks
and Recreation Department would fund additional staff for testing of Sargassum removal
techniques in conjunction with the General Land Office (GLO).
This grant application will allow for both the University and the City to study Sargassum and
to evaluate alternative removal techniques. Neither entity has been able to fund the
aspects of Sargassum previously. The Sargassum Symposium in May 2008 noted the
need for this type of study to be undertaken.
The NOAA will notify applicants of approval of grant applications by the first of May with
implementation in the summer of 2009. The anticipated date for implementation will be
July 1, 2009.
The Council was notified of the grant application by separate memo on April 1, 2009.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 21, 2009
SUBJECT: Oso Water Reclamation Plant Process Improvements
Belt Filter Press Building Replacement (Project No. 7384)
CIP NO. WW 15
AGENDA ITEM: Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a
Contract for Professional Services with B. Harman Engineering, LLC from Corpus Christi,
Texas in the amount of $271,702 for the Oso Water Reclamation Plant Process
Improvements, Belt Filter Press Building Replacement Project.
ISSUE: The existing Sludge Dewatering Building at the Oso Water Reclamation Plant was
constructed as part of Oso Water Reclamation Plant expansion in 1981 and since then it
has outgrown the capacity required for sludge dewatering. The two belt filter presses have
become unreliable and have been working at full capacity over ten hours a day, seven
days a week. The two belt filter presses are not able to keep up with the removal of sludge
from the plant. TCEQ's Chapter 217 rules require the plant to have at least two dewatering
units with adequate dewatering capacity for daily sludge flow with the largest unit out of
service. A new Sludge Dewatering Building will be constructed with three belt filter presses
for reliability or redundancy to comply with the TCEQ rules. The building will have space
for fourth filter press which can be installed once the plant reaches its design capacity.
FUNDING: Funding is available from the FY2009 Wastewater Capital Budget and Capital
Improvement Planning Guide.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Motion as presented.

AGENDA BACKGROUND INFORMATION
SUBJECT: O.N. Stevens Process Monitoring Instrumentation and Automation
Improvements
Project No. 8600 / CIP No. WA 04
PROJECT BACKGROUND: Currently the instrument monitoring and analyzing for TCEQ
requirements (chlorine residual, pH and turbidity) are located in the Chemical Building
basement of the O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant (ONSWTP). There are long sample
lines (up to 1,000 feet) before the water is actually analyzed. These long sample lines
create a severe delay in response time, which leads to poor monitoring of each of the
process variables and inaccurate readings of water quality. Accurate, real -time analysis of
the water will be accomplished and documented with new instrument analyzers in the field
located at the sample points and connected to a central control room with the improved
network system.
Currently the ONSWTP does not have a system in place to control and document changes
to critical drawings and instrument data. Developing a Management of Change process
with City staff will accomplish this. Also, the ONSWTP has not established critical
equipment standards with spare parts list so that standardization and immediate repair can
take place. Developing these standards will accomplish this.
AMENDMENT NO. 1 DESCRIPTION: Amendment No. 1 proposes to provide the
necessary engineering design and support services (bidding and construction support) for
the installation of new turbidity sensors and analyzers, pH sensors and analyzers, and
chlorine residual sensors and analyzers. Existing analyzers in the basement of the
Chemical Building will be demolished and new sensors and analyzers will be installed at
the point of sample as required by the TCEQ. Included in this scope of work is the re-
design of the existing communications network system to accommodate these
improvements and future project improvements. To accomplish this it will be necessary to
field verify and document the network down to the device level.
Bath Engineering Corporation's services for this project will include all necessary field
investigation, site surveying, cost estimating, and necessary meetings with City personnel
for City input. They will also coordinate this project with other ongoing projects at the O.N.
Stevens Water Treatment Plant. The estimated construction cost for the installation of the
sensors, analyzers and network improvements is $3.6 million.
Two additional services being provided will be to:
➢ Facilitate and help develop with City staff a Management of Change (MOC) process
for mission - critical information documentation of the monitoring and control systems
at the ONSWTP; and
➢ Assist the City in developing critical equipment standards for the ONSWTP.

Amendment No. 1 to the contract with Bath Engineering Corporation will consist of the
following specific tasks:
A. BASIC SERVICES
1. Preliminary Phase (completed under Small NE contract)
2. Engineering & Design Phase
A. Process Instrument Design: Located within the basement of the Chemical Building are
fourteen (14) turbidity sensors and corresponding indicating analyzers, eight (8) ph sensors
and corresponding indicating analyzers / transmitters, eight (8) residual chlorine sensors
and corresponding indicating analyzers, four (4) pressure switches, and three (3)
differential pressure transmitters. All of these instruments have long sample lines that are
remote from the actual process that is being monitored. These long sample lines create a
severe latency and response time in the system that leads to poor monitoring of each of
the process variables.
B. Network Communication Design: The City of Corpus Christi ONSWTP currently utilizes
various components that together make up a communications network that provides the
backbone for distributing data and critical control information throughout the facility. This
communications network has been compromised in several areas due to uncontrolled and
undocumented changes to the network infrastructure, system installation without a master
plan and lack of redundancy. Without a reliable control communication system, network
critical data and process information can be lost, routed to the wrong control sequence, or
communicate too slowly to maintain consistent and efficient process control or monitoring.
3. Bid Phase
• Attend the pre -bid conference and assist City in defining, clarifying, and responding to
bidder questions with respect to project design, specifications, materials, and methods.
• Prepare addenda necessary to inform contractors of modifications and clarifications
prior to bid date. The City's Engineering Services will distribute any addenda.
• Attend the bid opening, tabulate bids according to the City Engineering Services
preferred standard format, and make recommendations concerning award.
4. Construction Phase
• Attend and participate at the pre- construction conference, which will be chaired by
Engineering Services.
• Provide contractor - prepared redlined marked -up set of construction documents.
• Coordinate with the City inspector to authorize minor field alterations that do not affect
the contractor's price and are not contrary to the interest of the City.
• Conduct a "final inspection" with City and Contractor, and make a recommendation
concerning final acceptance.
B. ADDITIONAL SERVICES

EXHIBIT "A"
Page 2 of 3
ONSWTP does not have any means of controlling the version and revision control of its
mission and site - critical facility documentation. This proves to be very costly to the City
as engineering projects are implemented and each individual engineering firm must
include the cost to update documents and drawings that pertain only to the scope of
their specific work. When this method is applied to documents that are critical to the
reliable operation of the control system, other problems are encountered. These
problems relate directly to the efficient and reliable operations of the facility. It is
paramount that these mission - critical documents and drawings be identified and placed
under some form of document control. This document - control system and set of
procedures allows for the proper version and revision control. It moves the
modifications of these drawings and records from being project - specific to reflecting the
actual installed version of the documents where they become living as -built record
documents.
2. Equipment Standards Development - Bath Engineering has included time in this
project for four (4) meetings with the ONSWTP- designated team for development of a
set of mission - critical equipment standards. The City of Corpus Christi ONSWTP
personnel will be responsible for the management and scheduling of this activity.
3. GPS Site Survey - Provide a site survey that accurately locates all above -grade
obstructions and structures and can be used to develop an accurate site plan.
4. Fiber Optic Cable Verification - Provide the labor and equipment to electronically light
all the existing fiber optic cable to confirm continuity and light losses.
5. Construction Observation Services - Provide a minimum of ten (10) field observation
trips with a written report on progress during the project construction.
6. Process Sub - Consultant - Provide a water process engineer to assist in the MOC
process, the equipment standards development and the selection and exact locations
of instruments for the O.N. Stevens Process Monitoring design.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 21, 2009
SUBJECT: North Navigation Boulevard Pump Station
New Motor Operated Valve (MOV) Actuators (Project No. 8608)
CIP No. WA 19
AGENDA ITEM: Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a
construction contract with Rabalais I & E Constructors from Corpus Christi, Texas in the
amount of $114,600 for North Navigation Boulevard Pump Station New Motor Operated
Valve (MOV) Actuators for the Base Bid.
ISSUE: The proposed project resolves issues with water quality in the ground storage
tanks at the North Navigation Boulevard Pump Station. Present operation of this pump
station requires an operator to visit the site to isolate and activate the existing storage
tanks. A motor operated valve will be added to each of the isolation valves on the suction
side of the storage tanks and computer programming will be added to provide automation
to the filling and draining of the tanks. These modifications will also allow the operators at
the O. N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant greater flexibility in the operation and control of
this pump station.
FUNDING: Funding is available from the FY 2009 Water Capital Improvement Planning
(CIP) Guide.
R OMMEND ION: Staff recommends approval of the Motion as presented.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
SUBJECT: North Navigation Boulevard Pump Station
New Motor Operated Valve (MOV) Actuators (Project No. 8608)
CIP No. WA 19
CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT DESCRIPTION: This contract consists of the installation of two
motor operated valve (MOV) actuators, associated electrical, SCADA programming and
miscellaneous items of work required to complete the project in accordance with plans,
specifications and contract documents.
BID INFORMATION: Bids were received on March 11, 2009 with one (1) bidder submitting a
proposal. Rabalais I & E Constructors of Corpus Christi, Texas submitted the low and only bid in
the amount of $114,600. The City consultant, Urban Engineering, and City staff recommend that
the Base Bid in the amount of $114,600 be awarded to Rabalais I & E Constructors.
CONTRACT TERMS: The contract provides for the work to be complete within 150 calendar
days of notice to proceed.
CURRENT PRACTICE: The Operators from the O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant monitor
the tank levels, pressure and pumps online through the SCADA system at the plant. The
operators have the ability to start and stop pumps as needed through the SCADA system to
maintain pressures. The tanks are operated in a manner to maintain maximum water quality by
cycling the levels of water in the tanks. One tank is being filled while one tank is being pumped
from, down to the allowable low level. When it is time to alternate the tanks, an operator from
the O. N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant must drive to the Navigation Pump Station and
manually open and close the influent and effluent valves on both tanks. This practice takes at a
minimum one (1) hour and is typically done at least once per shift, or twice daily. The valves are
large diameter valves that can be difficult to open. This creates a hazard for potential back
injuries. In addition, the operator has to make a "best guess" on the position of the valve. If it is
open too much or too little, the operator will have to make another trip to adjust the valves.
SOLUTION: This project will allow the operators to see the valve positions and adjust the valves
as needed from the control room at the O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant through the
SCADA system. The advantage of this improvement is that the operators can make adjustments
to the valve without driving to the pump station. This significantly reduces the amount of time the
operator is away from the plant, during which he cannot see how the plant is performing or the
health of the distribution system. In addition, the improvements will increase safety. Operators
will not have to manually open and close valves, risking potential back injuries. Nor will they be
required to visit a remote site, the pump station, unaccompanied during the night. Last, the
increased control will allow us to optimize the cycling of the tanks, which in turn will reduce water
age and increase water quality.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
COUNCIL ACTION DATE: November 11, 2008
AGENDA ITEM: Motion authorizing payment of the Special Commissioners Award in the
amount of $380,000 in connection with condemnation of Parcel 2, owned by Vickers
Family Trust, for fee simple property rights to 7.197 acres of land located along the west
side of Paul Jones Avenue, approximately one - quarter mile southeast of South Padre Island
Drive, necessary for the South Guth Ball Field Relocation Project ( #3337) and for other
related public purposes.
ISSUE: On October 16, 2007 the City Council approved an ordinance to gift 140 acres of
land in the vicinity of Ennis Joslin Road to Texas A &M- Corpus Christi for the future
expansion of their campus. The conveyance required the replacement of City land currently
used for ball fields at South Guth Park. City staff identified three parcels of land on Paul
Jones Avenue totaling approximately 37acres suitable for the new ball field site. A
resolution was passed by City Council on December 11, 2007 authorizing the acquisition of
these parcels by negotiation or eminent domain. Two parcels, Parcels 1 and 3, were
acquired by voluntary sale on March 28, 2008 and November 25, 2008 respectively. Land
acquisition staff has now acquired the last parcel, Parcel 2, through eminent domain
proceedings. On April 2, 2009, a condemnation hearing was held whereby three Special
Commissioners awarded the landowners an amount of $380,000 for the land. The City must
pay this amount in order to take possession of the land. If the City Council objects to the
amount, the City can file a formal appeal of this award before April 27, 2009 and proceed to
a judge and jury trial. City Council approval is necessary for all land acquisition
expenditures which exceed $50,000.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
SUBJECT: South Guth Ball Field Relocation Project ( #3337)
Special Commissioners Award, Parcel 2, Vickers Family Trust
The City dedicated 140 acres of land to Texas A &M- Corpus Christi on October 16, 2007
for expansion of its campus. The acquisition of new land was needed to replace the current
South Guth ball fields located within a portion of the dedicated land. The City initiated a
search for replacement lands in close proximity of the present ball fields on Ennis Joslin.
Eight various areas were evaluated based on size, price, location and other amenities.
One of the sites was located on Paul Jones Avenue, approximately one - quarter mile south
of South Padre Island Drive as shown on the attached Exhibit A. At that site, three parcels
of land were identified by City staff as being of sufficient size for the new ball fields.
Preliminary studies were begun on this site to address ownership of the parcels, the
presence of any jurisdictional wetlands, the presence of any endangered species,
environmental site analysis, and other due diligence issues. The Engineering and Park &
Recreation staff also met with representatives of the three baseball leagues presently using
S. Guth Park to present the site and obtain their feedback.
On July 17, 2007, a presentation was made by the City Manager and Dr. Flavius C.
Killibrew of Texas A &M- Corpus Christi to City Council indicating the City's selection of this
alternative park site on Paul Jones Avenue. In December 2007, a resolution was
approved by City Council for acquisition of the parcels by negotiations or eminent domain
proceedings. Formal offers were then made to the various landowners and negotiations
commenced. On March 28, 2008, the City acquired its first parcel, Parcel 1, containing
29.018 acres. Parcel 3, a one -half acre residential homestead, was acquired on November
25, 2008. Both were acquired through negotiations and a voluntary sale. Negotiations
reached an impasse for the remaining Parcel 2 containing 7.197 acres and required
acquisition by eminent domain proceedings. On April 2, 2009, a condemnation hearing
was held in which a Special Commissioners Award was determined in the amount of
$380,000. City Council approval to pay this amount is now required by the motion
presented.
Parcel 2 Information: Parcel 2 is a vacant tract of land containing approximately 7.197
acres of land. It is located .28 miles southwest of South Padre Island Drive on the west
side of Paul Jones Avenue as shown on the attached Exhibit B. The parcel has been
owned by the Vickers Family Trust since April 1983. The land is currently unplatted and
has a zoning designation of R -2, Multi- Family Residential.
Parcel 2 Negotiations: The parcel was initially appraised by Terrence Wood, MAI and
Corpus Christi Appraisal Services in the amounts of $127,500 and $165,000 respectively.
Selecting the better appraisal, a formal offer was made to the owners in the amount of
$165,000, however it was rejected. The owners had previously obtained an appraisal for
the subject tract from Accredited Appraisers, Inc. in 2006 for the amount of $690,000. This
report contained all Business zoned comparable sales with superior locations to the subject
EXHIBIT A
—1 1 2—
Pane 1 of S
property. Adjustments were also not made for the zoning differences and for platting. In
January 2007, an auction of the various family tracts was held by the owners which
included the subject 7 acre tract. Because of the owner's appraisal of $690,000, the sole
bid of $380,000 for the property was rejected. The owners subsequently demanded the
amount of $380,000 from the City for the subject property. In order to try to reach a
compromise, a third appraisal was obtained by the City. Tasador, Inc., a focal
independent appraisal firm submitted a report in the amount of $414,000. The report
contained five comparables; three of which were business zoned, with one office zone and
one residential zone.
All four appraisals were reviewed by the Land Acquisition Manager and analyzed for their
strengths and weaknesses. Of the total amount of comparable sales, the best three were
selected. Using the appraiser's own adjustments resulted in a range of values for the
subject tract from $$219,00 to $248,000. A final market value of $182,000 was
determined after taking into consideration the $20,000 per acre valuation of the adjoining
uplands previously purchased by the City and the list price of comparable land available on
Holly Road. A second offer was made to the landowners in the amount of $182,000. This
offer was again rejected with a firm price of $380,000. A demand of $414,000 was later
made by the landowners through their attorney for the amount of the last appraisal.
Negotiation reached an impasse and preparations were then made for eminent domain
proceedings.
Condemnation Hearing: A condemnation hearing was held on April 2, 2009, which
resulted in a Special Commissioner's Award of $380,000 set by three persons selected by
the presiding judge. The City must pay this amount in order to take possession of the
land. The City can appeal this award and proceed to a judge and jury trial. An appeal
must be filed by April 27th in order to proceed to jury trial. It is the opinion of the Land
Acquisition Manger that the land has a market value well below the $380,000. Council
action is required to approve the Award amount since it is in excess of the $50,000 limit set
by law. This is the final parcel needed for the project.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Created in August 24, 2004 the Small Business Advisory Committee (SBAC) was established to
advise the Economic Development Office on projects and programs to initiate or research for the
purpose of retaining and expanding small and historically underutilized businesses and jobs; on
the development of partnerships with organizations for such projects and programs; and to serve
as a focal point to communicate approaches to identify, attract, expand, and retain small and
historically underutilized businesses.
In March of 2005, the City Council appointed nine (9) members to the SBAC serving three -year
staggered terms, which is composed of representatives from organizations that assist small and
historically underutilized businesses. Items discussed during the year 2005 include: purpose and
requirements of the committee; Small Business and Economic Development Resources in
Corpus Christi; Taimerica Best Practices Report and other research on successful economic
development policies and strategies and their application in Corpus Christi.
SBAC held a total of nine (9) meetings for 2006 scheduled monthly. Items discussed during the
2006 year include: Review of the previous year; SBAC Rules of Engagement; Downtown
Redevelopment Committee (DRC) vision, goals, objectives and final recommendations for City
Council; Formation of Downtown Task Force (DTF); 4A Board Charter and Business Incentive
Guidelines; Identify strategies and make recommendations to align resources and bridge gaps
between small business needs and resources; SBAC retreat: Brainstorming session to revisit
SBAC purpose, business development and utilization of resources.
SBAC held a total of four (4) meetings for 2007 scheduled quarterly. Items discussed during the
year 2007 included: Review of the previous year; Implementations of DRC recommendations,
Economic Development Website discussion and brainstorming; Small Business Guidelines and
Criteria discussions; Creation of small business support link on the City's website; Adopt
Downtown Project.
The SBAC scheduled two meetings in 2008 however no quorum was met. The Economic
Development Office along with the Chair of the SBAC, Lamont Taylor, discussed the future of
the committee and how it can best serve the community and be effective. Through the new
leadership at the Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce, Foster Edwards has formed a Small
Business Council which will provide an opportunity for small business leaders and service
providers to meet regularly to address small business needs in the community. The primary
focus of the Small Business Council will serve as an information center that will provide
resources, seminar classes, and give guidance to small businesses; the Small Business Council is
comprised of service providers, small business owners and a city liaison. A representative of the
Small Business Council will provide periodic updates to the 4A Board and City Council. Prior to
the 4A Board going out for RFP's for small business projects, City staff will seek input from the
Small Business Council. Furthermore, the Economic Development office can schedule ad hoc
groups to discuss issues pertinent to small business.

REQUEST:
Christus Spohn Shoreline Hospital has requested a reduction in the speed limit along Ayers
Street between Santa Fe Street and Ocean Drive; Elizabeth Street between Santa Fe Street

times.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
PUBLIC HEARING — ZONING (City Council Action Date: April 21, 2009)
Case No. 0109 -05 Proportional Prosperity: A change of zoning from a `B -4" General Business District
to an "I -2" Light Industrial District described as Las Colonias Subdivision Unit 4, Block 1, Lots 25, 26 and
27 located at the northeast comer of Saratoga and Calle Las Colonias approximately 1/2 mile east of
Greenwood Drive
Staff and Planning Commission's Recommendation (January 21, 2009): Denial of the "I -2" Light
Industrial District and in -lieu- thereof approval of a Special Permit subject to a site plan' and the following
six (6) conditions:
1. Uses: The only uses permitted by the Special Permit other than those uses permitted by right in the "B-
4" General Business District is the use of outdoor storage. The outdoor storage shall be located on
Lots 26 and 27 (Las Colonias Subdivision, Block I) with a setback of 50 feet from the rear property
lines and not within the 20 foot front yard setback, such storage may not project above the fence.
2. Screening: The fencing of outdoor storage shall consist of the existing cyclone fence covered by an
opaque dark green privacy mesh. Such fence with mesh shall be located along the northern, eastern
property lines, and along southern property lines of lots 26 and 27. Mesh to be placed along the
western fence line which does not impede the security sensors for ingress /egress to the property.
3. Dumpster Location: Dumpsters shall be located within the designated outdoor storage area on Lots
26 or 27.
4. Lighting: Security Lighting shall be non - directional and shielded from the residential development to
the north (i.e. Los Colonias Subdivision).
5. Landscaping: Provide five oleanders on 5 foot centers along the frontage of Lots 26 and 27. This also
includes a 3 foot berm area with landscaping consisting of Monkey Grass and Indian Hawthorne along
the southwest comer of Lot 25. Provide hose bibs for irrigation of landscaping. Landscape plans shall
be proposed and sealed as required by Section 27B -11.A (11) of the Corpus Christi Zoning Ordinance,
All landscaping shall not be located within utility easements and /or Right -of -Way areas.
6. Time Limit: This Special Permit expires one (I) year from the date of this ordinance, unless the
property is being used as outlined in Condition #1 and in compliance with all other conditions.
Requested Council Action: Approval of the Planning Commission's and Staff Recommendation.
Summary:
• Request: The applicant is requesting a change of zoning on 2.18 acres from a `B -4" General
Business District to an "I -2" Light Industrial District. The applicant wants to rezone the property so
that the existing building and specifically, the associated outdoor storage use, conforms to the zoning.
• Existing Land Uses: The subject property is currently not being used for any type of business,
although there is an existing building which was previously used as an office /warehouse facility with
outdoor storage. The previous business was non - conforming with regard to the outdoor storage use on
the property. To the east and west of the property, the existing land use is vacant. To the north is a
1 At the time of Planning Commission recommendation a site plan was not available. A final site plan was received
on March 19, 2009, which has caused a delay in the sched1t3 of this January rezoning case.
(LDR) low density residential subdivision. Across Saratoga Boulevard to the south is vacant land, and
is proposed for Medium Density Residential Use on the Future Land Use Map.
• Existing Zoning: The subject property is zoned "B-4". The purpose of the `B -4" General Business
District is to provide sufficient space in appropriate locations for commercial and miscellaneous
service activities. Residential density is a maximum of 36 units per acre. Warehousing,
manufacturing, heavy auto repair, open storage and off -site advertising uses are among the uses
which are not allowed in the `B -4" District. The "B -4" District requires a 20 -foot front yard setback
and no side or rear yard setbacks unless adjacent to a residential district, then a 10 -foot setback is
required.
• Proposed Zoning: The purpose of the "I -2" Light Industrial District is to provide for light
manufacturing, fabrication, warehousing, and wholesale distributing in high or low buildings with
access to an arterial street, freeway, or railroad in central or outlying areas of the city. Residential
uses are not allowed. In Article 24 of the Zoning Ordinance, the "I -2" District requires a minimum
20 -foot front yard setback and no side or rear yards unless abutting a residential district; then 10 -foot
side and rear set back is required. The "I -2" District does not have a minimum lot size, lot frontage,
height limitation, open space requirement or floor area intensity factor requirement.
• Transportation and Circulation: The subject property has access to Saratoga Blvd., which is an A3
Primary- Arterial, meaning the street is planned in the future to contain six lanes and a median.
Currently, in front of the subject property, Saratoga Blvd. is a two lane Road in an 80 foot right -of-
way and widens to the six lane road at the intersection of Greenwood Drive. Saratoga Blvd. and
Greenwood drive are both arterial streets leading to a major freeway.
• Infrastructure Demand:
o Water: An 8 inch city water line is located in front of the subject property in Calle Las Colonias
Street. A 54 inch city transmission line is located along Saratoga Boulevard.
o Wastewater: The City of Corpus Christi has a 10 inch wastewater line along the northern
boundary of the subject property. The 10 inch wastewater line connects to a 12" collector line
and in turn feeds to a 24" main wastewater line.
o Storm water: There is a storm water pipe with inlets along Calle Las Colonias which abuts the
western part of the property.
• Comprehensive Plan Consistency: The adopted Future Land Use Plan designates the subject
property for Commercial uses, therefore, the proposed "I -2" Light Industrial District is not consistent
with the City's Comprehensive Plan. In addition, policies from the Corpus Christi Policy Statements
and the Area Development Plans are provided below.
Plat Status:
The subject property is platted however; new construction may require a replat.
Department Comments:
• The proposed project is not consistent with the Adopted Future Land Use Map
• The proposed Light Industrial use does not buffer and provide a smooth transition from the adjacent,
existing Low Density Residential Development.
• The rezoning request does not take advantage of expansion of industrial use within existing
industrially zoned areas.
• Approval of a special permit would promote the use of an existing building and may help to mitigate
any adverse impacts to the neighborhood.
C:\D000ME- 1\rtbxeah\LOCALS -1 \Temp \pn91l6rFrenimul Prosperity Agenda Memo BA to 1 -2 Revised ejp doc
• A special permit with appropriate setbacks and screening from the residential area to the north could
offer a satisfactory buffer between the two uses.
• The proposed use is across from property out of the city limits and developed with commercial and
industrial uses with outside storage.
Notification: Of the twenty nine (29) notices mailed to the surrounding property owners one (1) notice was
returned in favor and two (2)(1.4 %) were returned in opposition. The 20% rule is not invoked. This case
is considered noncontroversial. 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.

o Soil Type:
o Flight Zone:
o Other:
Soil Type at this location is of the Victoria Series consisting of four
types of Victoria clays. The characteristics of these types have a
poorly drained and slowly permeable soil, with slow runoff. The
suitability for commercial construction ranges from poor to
unsuited. A suitable fill is typically needed for construction.
The property is not located under any Flight Zones.
The subject property is within a one mile radius of a wastewater
plant and a city land fill.
• Relationship to Smart Growth (See Attachment 10, Principles of Smart Growth):
Staff has rated the relationship of the rezoning request to Smart Growth Principles by rating the
rezoning a 10 on a scale of 100 points.
Smart Growth Principles which relate to the requested rezoning include.
o Strengthen and direct development toward existing communities (10 points).
• Comprehensive Plan Consistency: The adopted Future Land Use Plan designates the subject
property for Commercial use, therefore, the proposed "I -2" Light Industrial District is not consistent
with the City's Comprehensive Plan. In addition, policies from the Corpus Christi Policy Statements
and the Area Development Plans are provided below.
CORPUS CHRISTI POLICY STATEMENTS:
POLICIES - INDUSTRIAL
A large amount of vacant land is currently zoned for industrial use in the city, with a significant
amount located along I.H. 37 between Violet Road and Padre Island Drive. These areas are important,
as they help provide sufficient industrially zoned land for existing and future industries. A primary
land use concern is the location of industrial sites and the impact they have on abutting non - industrial
uses. If industrial uses are introduced into non - industrial areas of the city, they must be designed with
sufficient open space and other buffers to protect the safety, aesthetic, and monetary value of adjacent
properties.
b. AN ACTIVE PROGRAM SHOULD BE DEVELOPED TO RETAIN AND EXPAND
EXISTING INDUSTRY.
One of the principal components of industrial growth comes from the expansion of existing industry
rather than from the development of new industry. Programs that will promote competitively - priced
industrially -zoned land for expansion should be supported.
Staff Comment: The rezoning request does not take advantage of expansion of industrial use
within existing industrially zoned areas
c. PROPERLY PLANNED INDUSTRIAL PARKS SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED.
A primary objective is to attract new industry for Corpus Christi. Business should be encouraged to
develop in industrial parks that are properly planned and landscaped. Large industrial parks are to be
encouraged as they usually offer more utilities and amenities to mitigate the effect of industrial
development than do smaller, individual -lot developments.
Staff Comment: The rezoning request does not take advantage of expansion of industrial use within
existing industrially zoned areas.

WESTSIDE AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN (ADP) POLICY STATEMENTS:
B.4 — POLICY STATEMENT
Where industrial land uses are proposed adjacent to existing or future residential area, buffering
techniques such as greater open space and privacy walls or landscaping should be required.
Staff Comment: The project proposes outdoor storage use that is not compatible with the
neighboring, existing Low Density Residential development and the adjacent proposed Medium
Density Residential Land Use.
C.5 — POLICY STATEMENT
High intensity commercial and industrial areas should be buffered to provide transition from
residential areas through the existence of
1) Main Roads;
2) Public and Institutional Buildings;
3) Open Space;
4) Scale of Design;
5) Landscaping; and
6) Other transitional land uses.
Staff Comment: The project proposes outdoor storage use that is not compatible with the
neighboring, existing Low Density Residential development and the adjacent proposed Medium
Density Residential Land Use. The proposed use is not a public or institutional building. It is
uncertain whether the applicant proposes to utilize landscaping, open space, and scale of design in
utilizing the existing building onsite. The site is currently zoned for business use which is more
compatible with this policy.

Shelter Grant (ESG) Program as it relates to the Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-
Housing Program and the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program of the

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has allocated $10.1 billion,
made available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery
Act) (Public Law 111 -5) signed into law by President Obama on February 17, 2009.
As such, the City of Corpus Christi has been notified by the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development grants awarded directly to our community regarding the following
federal programs.
1) For the ESG Program, an additional $1,393,181 will be allocated to the Homeless
Prevention and Rapid Re- Housing Program (HPRP). Eligible participants are
persons that are homeless or at risk of being homeless and are at or below 50% of
Area Median Income, have no housing options and lack financial resources /support
network. There will be an initial consultation with a case manager. The eligible
activities are for 1) financial assistance which includes short-term rental assistance
(up to 3 months), medium -term rental assistance (up to 18 months) and security
deposits, utility deposits, utility payments, moving costs and hotel /motel vouchers;
and, 2) housing relocation and stabilization services such as case management,
outreach, housing search and placement, legal services and credit repair; and, 3)
data collection and evaluation which includes Homeless Management Information
System; and, 4) administration costs for up to five (5) percent of grant.
2) For the CDBG program, an additional $911,062 will be allocated to the program.
There has been no further guidance on the use of CDBG funds as it relates to the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. What staff does know at this
time is that any projects /activities funded with the use of these funds have to be
"shovel ready," project/activities ready to start construction within a very short time
frame, possibly within three (3) months. Also, there may be the requirement that
projects /activities funded may have to create jobs.
Staff does intend to release a Notice Of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the use of the
above program funds. The NOFA will outline program parameters such eligible
participants and activities. There is a shorten citizens comment period from the normal 30
days for a substantial amendment to 12 days that will be required. After the NOFA is
released, Community Development will be accepting responses to the NOFA in the form of
a Request for Proposal for the planned use of HPRP and CDBG funds relating to the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Thereafter, staff will bring back to City
Council recommendations for HPRP and CDBG funding for projects /activities relating to
the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

INTRODUCTION
The Charter Review Ad Hoc Committee was appointed by the City Council in
March 2008 and conducted its first meeting on April 7, 2008. The first order of business
was to set a public hearing date in order to receive initial public comment on the Charter
and break the document down into different sections in order to schedule each section for
more detailed review.
The Committee conducted a public hearing on May 12, 2008, and received input on
different areas of interest, including increasing City Council compensation, providing for
the appointment of a City Auditor, simplifying referendum and recall petition procedures,
considering a strong mayor form of government, and modifying the system for electing the
City Council. City staff prepared summaries of Charter provisions from numerous other
cities in Texas for comparison purposes.
The Committee focused on the City Council compensation issue and surveyed the
pay and benefits provided to Council members around the state. It also obtained extensive
information on the functions of a City Auditor, and was briefed on the issue by the City's
current independent auditor. Additionally, Chairman Bob White spoke with the City of
Austin's internal City Auditor on the functions of that office for comparison purposes.
The Committee held ten different meetings addressing various provisions of the
Charter and receiving additional public input during the public comment period at each
session. The Committee additionally received briefing materials on each issue including
information on similar Charter provisions of other Texas cities. The Committee's work
concluded with a public hearing on February 2, 2009, after the preliminary version of this
Report was circulated for public review, and a special meeting on February 23, 2009.
The following Final Report is the result of the above meetings, hearings and studies
in which all points of view were considered and the different ways of doing things in other
cities were compared and analyzed. The Committee was not unanimous in all of its votes
on the different propositions, but the Committee agrees that the Final Report represents the
sum of its efforts on behalf of the community in making a careful study of our existing City
Charter and identifying the provisions in need of review and amendment.
Initially, the Committee was appointed with the anticipation that a Charter election
would be called in connection with the April 4, 2009 City Council elections. The
Committee was advised by City staff that the Texas Secretary of State's Election Division
had taken the position that Charter propositions could not be included on the April ballot
until clarifying legislation was adopted in the Texas Legislative Session. As a result, the
next election at which these Propositions could be considered would be November 3, 2009.

PROPOSED CITY CHARTER AMENDMENTS
Proposition 1. Updating the petition requirements for initiative and referendum
and recall elections to comply with State law and make them consistent.
Summary
Changes in state law require an update to these provisions concerning petitions
filed with the City. The initiative and referendum and recall provisions are clarified to
include "residence" address and the option of providing the signer's date of birth or voter
registration number. Also, in order to provide consistency with other petition
requirements, the recall petition requirements are modified to delete information
identifying the person circulating the petition and requiring an affidavit from the person
circulating the petition to verify he /she witnessed each signature on a given page. The
Committee believes that the Charter provisions should be kept consistent with State law
and that the various petition procedures in the Charter should be standardized in order to
avoid confusion.
Actual Text Amendment
ARTICLE I. HOME RULE GOVERNMENT
Sec. 4. Initiative and Referendum.
(e)
In the event the council fails to take the proposed action within the time
allotted, the city secretary shall furnish to the proponents petition pages for
circulation among the registered voters of the city. Each petition page shall
contain the following:
* * *
(2) The printed name, residence address, and date of birth or voter registration
number of each voter signing the petition;
ARTICLE II. CITY COUNCIL
IN GENERAL
Sec. 19. Power of Recall.
* * * * *
(c) The printed name, residence address, either the date of birth or voter registration
number of each signer, and the date of signing;
(d) The signature of each signer in ink; and
3
—214—
(e) The date of issuance by the city secretary and the name and address of the person
or group to whom the petition was issued.
Proposition 2. Increasing the salary of city council members to $12,500 per year and
of the mayor to $18,750 per year and allowing the Mayor and other members of the
City Council or their families who are eligible to participate in any health and
dental plans offered to city employees if they pay 100% of the premiums for such
plans.
Summary
In 1975, the voters approved a Charter amendment increasing city council
compensation from $50 per meeting to $100 per meeting subject to a $6,000 annual limit,
with the mayor receiving an additional $3,000 stipend. In 1987, as part of an overall
reorganization and simplification of the Charter, the voters approved an amendment
setting the council members' compensation at a flat level of $6,000 and the mayor's
compensation at $9,000. -As a result, the economic benefit of serving on the city council
has been held at the same basic level since 1975.
The Committee unanimously voted to increase the level of compensation to a total
sum of $12,500 per year for city council members and $18,750 per year for the Mayor.
The Committee also wanted to clarify the issue of health insurance and any other
benefits available to the Mayor and members of the City Council. As part of this
amendment, the Mayor and other members of the City Council or their families would be
eligible to participate in any health or dental plans offered to city employees, provided
they pay 100% of the premium for such plans.
The new salaries and insurance participation provisions would go into effect
immediately after the election and qualification for office of the city council elected in
2011.
Actual Text of Amendment
ARTICLE II. CITY COUNCIL
IN GENERAL
Article II, City Council, Section 7, Compensation.
(a) Each member of the City Council, with the exception of the Mayor, shall
receive a salary not to exceed twelve thousand five hundred dollars ($12,500.00) during
each year of service on the Council, such sum to be paid in equal installments throughout
the year.
-415-
(b) The Mayor shall receive a salary not to exceed eighteen thousand seven
hundred fifty dollars ($18,750.00) during each year of service on the council, such sum to
be paid in equal installments throughout the year.
(c) The Mayor and other members of the City Council may participate in any
health or dental plans for which they or their families are eligible; provided that they
must pay 100% of the premiums for such plans.
(d) The provisions of this section shall become effective immediately after the
election and qualification for office of the city council in 2011.
Proposition 3. Changing the term limits on the Mayor and Council members to a
cumulative lifetime maximum limit and disallowing a person to become eligible for
election to a new term limit after not serving one full term.
Summary
Effective 2011, this provision would change the existing term limits of eight (8)
years as a council member or as mayor, and twelve (12) years in any combination, to a
cumulative lifetime maximum limitation. Currently, the Charter sets the term limits on
"consecutive" years, but this amendment would apply the term limits on an absolute
basis.
If a person runs for office, all prior terms served would be counted against the
maximum term limit. A person who had previously met term limits and laid out one full
term or longer would no longer be eligible to be elected to serve again as a council
member or mayor. If a person is appointed to fill a vacancy, then that term would not be
counted toward the term limit maximum.
Actual Text Amendment
ARTICLE II. CITY COUNCIL
IN GENERAL
Sec. 1. Membership and term.
* * * *
(d) Effective 2011, no person may be elected to serve more than four two -year
terms as a council member, or four two -year terms as mayor, or six two -year terms in
any combination as council member and mayor.
—2165
Proposition 4. Adding a position of City Auditor who shall be appointed by the City
Council.
Summary
The City undergoes an annual audit by an independent auditing firm each year,
and the City Council and City Manager both have the authority under Article II, Section
28 to provide for an internal audit of the accounts of any officer or department. The
Committee received input both from the City's internal financial staff and the current
outside auditor on whether creating a separate position of city auditor would be
duplicative or create any problems.
Adding the position of City Auditor within the Charter would provide systematic
internal auditing controls and reviews for the City. Since the City Manager is responsible
for the overall administration and management of the City, the City Auditor would need
to be appointed by and report directly to the City Council. The adoption of an ordinance
detailing the procedures to be followed and future budget allocations for the City Auditor
will determine the extent and scope of the City Auditor's functions, but establishment of
the position in the City Charter would create the function as part of our City government.
Actual Text Amendment
ARTICLE II. CITY COUNCIL
IN GENERAL
Sec. 29. City Auditor.
(a) The City Council shall appoint a City Auditor. The City Auditor may be
removed only by a majority of the City Council.
(b) The City Auditor shall have such duties, responsibilities, and staff as
determined by ordinance, including the responsibility to conduct, or cause to be
conducted, financial, performance, investigative, and other audits following government
auditing standards as promulgated by the Comptroller General of the United States.
Proposition S. Clarifying the provisions concerning leases, franchises and use
privilege agreements to include authorization to enter into license agreements when
a lease or franchise is not applicable and allow multi -year agreements no longer
than five years.
Summary
The Charter regulates the utilization of public property and authorizes the City
Council to enter into leases and franchises. Leases or franchises for a period of longer
than five years must be adopted at two separate readings by the City Council with notice
6
—217—
published in the newspaper. The Charter also authorizes the City Council to delegate to
the City Manager limited authority to enter into short-term leases, easements and use
privileges for various purposes.
The proposed amendment would clarify the authority to enter into license
agreements when a lease, franchise or easement is not applicable. A license agreement
authorizes a person to go onto public property for a particular purpose or use, and the
term "use privileges" has been used in the Charter historically for this purpose.
Typically, these types of agreements are classified as license agreements under the law,
so the Charter amendment clarifies and allows the use of both terms.
The proposed amendment also would allow City staff to enter into multi -year
agreements; however, the Charter restrictions on leases or franchises longer than five
years would continue to remain in effect.
Actual Text Amendment
ARTICLE PC. PUBLIC UTILITIES, FRANCHISES AND LEASES
Sec. 1. Inalienability of Public Property.
The control and use of the public streets, sidewalks, alleys, bridges, parks, public
buildings and any other public property of the city is declared to be inalienable by the
city, except by ordinances not in conflict with the provisions of this charter; provided,
however, the council may by ordinance grant, or authorize an officer or employee of the
city to grant, sidetrack or switch privilege easements to common carriers, and daily,
weekly, monthly, annual, multi -year leases, licenses or use privileges of public streets,
sidewalks, alleys, bridges, parks, public buildings and any other public property, all upon
such terms and with the imposition of such conditions and limitations in such easements
and leases or use privileges as the council may elect. No act or omission by the council or
any officer or agent of the city shall be construed to grant, renew, extend or amend by
estoppel or indirection any right, franchise, lease, easement, license or use permit
affecting said public streets, sidewalks, alleys, bridges, parks, public buildings and any
other public property.
Recommendation I. Recommending that City Council elections be conducted on the
second Saturday in May, being the statewide uniform election date, so long as such
date does not conflict with Buccaneer days.
Summary
Corpus Christi historically has conducted its City Council elections on the first
Saturday in April. When State law was enacted requiring cities to utilize a uniform
election date on the first Saturday in May, Corpus Christi sought special legislation to
allow it to continue to hold elections on the first Saturday in April in order to avoid
7
—218—
conflicts with Buccaneer Days. The Buccaneer festivities would compete with election
day voting, and the night parade blockades Leopard Street Saturday evening making it
very difficult to utilize City Hall for election returns and processing.
In 2007, the Legislature changed the uniform election date to the second Saturday
in May. Other local jurisdictions continue to utilize the uniform election date, and if the
City were to conduct its election on that date cost savings could result from sharing
election expenses. Additionally, voter turnout could be enhanced by greater publicity for
the uniform election and affording voters the opportunity to participate in all of their local
elections on the same date.
The City Charter already allows the City Council the flexibility of moving the
elections to the uniform election date in May, so no Charter amendment is required. The
Committee simply recommends that the City Council use its existing authority to change
the election date to the second Saturday in May. If in the future State law changes the
uniform election date back to the first Saturday in May conflicting with Buccaneer Days,
the Council still would have the legal ability to move the election back to April.
Recommendation 2. Recommending that the City Council and City staff carefully
monitor the 68 -cent property tax cap and its impact on the sales of City bonds over
the next six months and consider inclusion of an amendment to the tax cap in the
November election as necessary.
Summary
The voters of Corpus Christi passed a 68 -cent cap on property taxes at a
referendum election conducted in 1980. Since that time, the Charter has been amended to
eliminate certain provisions on appraisals included in that referendum that were not
constitutional and provide that debt service for voter - approved bond issues would not be
subject to the limitation.
The Committee received input from the City's Finance Department on the
comments made each year by different municipal bond rating agencies on the financial
impact of the 68 -cent tax cap. Nearly all other cities in Texas are subject only to the limit
set in the Texas Constitution, which is $2.50 per $100 of valuation. Of that limit, a city
may not levy a tax greater than $1.50 per $100 of valuation for debt service obligations,
and the remaining $1.00 per $100 of valuation is the limit for maintenance and operations
purposes.
A major concern is that when the City of Corpus Christi is competing with other
Texas cities in the bond markets issuing bonds for needed projects, Corpus Christi bonds
are less desirable to investors due to the lower tax limit. That distinction could result in
higher borrowing costs for the City for its projects.
8
—219—
Proponents of the tax cap were vocal in their opposition to any further
amendments to this provision. Based on the successful 2008 bond election, the City will
be issuing additional bonds this year, and the Committee recommends that the City
Council and City staff carefully monitor any impact of the 68 -cent tax cap on the bond
ratings and interest rates obtained by the City in connection with those bond sales. If
negative impacts can be determined, the City Council should consider different options
including repeal of the 68 -cent tax cap or replacement of the tax cap with a different limit
specifically for debt service obligations.
