BoldFuture for the Coastal Bend Final Community Progress Report October 2012 BoldFuture for the Coastal Bend, a vision initiative by and for the people of the Coastal Bend, was launched with the mission of creating a shared, preferred vision of the future and developing a comprehensive vision action plan -- in short, to change the conversation and the trajectory of the Coastal Bend. In fall 2007, Coastal Bend leaders sought direction to address community concerns. At the request of then City of Corpus Christi staff, Del Mar College and Texas A &M University- Corpus Christi agreed to provide leadership for a community visioning and action initiative. The guiding principles for BoldFuture were to be positive, inclusive, comprehensive, informed and professional. Government, institutional, corporate and private funding supported the initiative, which involved thousands of citizens and the dedication of nearly 60 BoldFuture Lead Partners and many more Supporting Partners, Advisors and Ambassadors. Phase 1, completed in September 2008 included designing the visioning process, creating a community profile and conducting a telephone survey to answer the question: Where are we now? Phase 11 involved creating and validating the vision by collecting and analyzing input from almost 2,000 citizens on the question: Where do we want to be? Once the vision was completed in May 2009, Phase 111 answered the question: How are we going to get there? In the fall of 2009, six Vision Action Teams volunteered their time and expertise to develop the Vision Action Plan. For the past two and one -half years, close to 60 Lead Partners and many more Supporting Partners have been working in Phase IV to enact the vision and report annually on How are we doing? Research conducted in 2008 for the BoldFuture initiative indicated Coastal Bend residents' primary concerns for the region were low paying jobs, the state of the economy, crime, education and leadership for the region. * Nearly half of those employed in the region earned wages that placed them in the bottom quarter of wage earners in the state —near or below the poverty line. Governmental entities made up the largest segment of employers in the region. The region's rate of residents age 25 and older with less than a ninth grade education was twice average. The death rate for diabetes and obesity - related illness neared twice the state average. What a difference two years —and the commitment of hundreds of BoldFuture Lead and Supporting Partners made! Two years after launching the Vision Action Plan, the Corpus Christi economy is ranked 49th strongest among the top 366 metro areas nationwide. ** Unemployment dipped to 6.2% and job growth is among the highest in the state. Crime control initiatives are stronger than ever and the educational fabric of the region continues to develop with more accessibility to high - quality learning experiences.

CAPTION: Resolution by the City Council of the City Corpus Christi supporting the Corpus Christi Air Quality Groups participation in the EPA Ozone Advance Program to promote local actions to reduce ozone precursors in the community and continue to maintain National Ambient Air Quality Standards for ozone. PURPOSE: The Resolution gives Council's support of the Corpus Christi Air Quality Group's continuing successful efforts to collaborate with the United States EPA, while identifying local initiatives that reduce air emissions and to seek to maintain Corpus Christi's attainment status of National Ambient Air Quality standards set forth by the United States EPA. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: The Corpus Christi area, comprised of Nueces County and San Patricio County, is an urban air shed in which air emissions from sources in both counties interact to influence the level of ambient air pollution in the community. Control of ambient air quality requires a strategy that considers sources of air emissions in both counties. The urban air shed of Nueces County and San Patricio County an area in which local entities, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are working together to plan and implement voluntary actions appropriate to community needs to improve air quality. This collaboration makes it possible to design common sense strategies that reflect the weather, driving habits, and economy of the region in the creation of a model program. A plan was formalized in 1996 in a Flexible Attainment Region Memorandum of Agreement, and modified and continued in 2002 in an O3FLEX Memorandum of Agreement. The parties to the plans were the following governmental authorities: City of Corpus Christi Texas Commission on Environmental Quality Nueces County U.S. Environmental Protection Agency San Patricio County Port of Corpus Christi Authority Regional Transportation Authority Other stakeholders making major contributions to this effort include the following: Port Industries of Corpus Christi, Inc., and its member companies Texas A &M University- Corpus Christi, Department of Community Outreach (TAMUCC) Texas A &M University - Kingsville, Department of Environmental Engineering (TAM UK) Corpus Christi Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) The 8 Hour O3FLEX agreement will expire at the end of 2012.

Van Vleck, P.E., Interim Director, Development Services MarkVV @cctexas.com (361) 826-3246 UTILITY EASEMENT CLOSURE Abandoning and vacating the five -foot wide utility easement out of Portmoor Addition, Block 1, Lot 8. CAPTION: Ordinance abandoning and vacating the five -foot wide utility easement out of Portmoor Addition, Block 1, Lot 8; and requiring the owner, Bill Miller Bar B Q, to comply with the specified conditions. PURPOSE: The purpose of this item is to eliminate the utility easement from the subject property to allow for construction of a CVS Pharmacy Store in the area where the easement is located. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: First Hartford Realty Corporation, acting as agent on behalf of Bill Miller Bar B Q ( "Owner "), is requesting the abandonment and vacation of the 5 -foot wide utility easement (252.93- square- feet) out of Portmoor Addition, Block 1, Lot 8. The property is located east of Port Avenue and north of Morgan Avenue. The abandonment and vacation of the utility easement is requested in order to accommodate the future development of the subject property. Staff recommends that payment of fair market value be waived in accordance with City Code of Ordinance Sec. 49 -12, because Owner will be replatting said property and upon replatting will be dedicating utility easements of equal or greater value to off -set the proposed abandonment and vacation of the easement. The Owner must also comply with all the specified conditions of the abandon and vacate ordinance within 180 days of Council approval. ALTERNATIVES: Denial of the utility easement closure. This will, however, adversely impact the Owner's ability to move forward with future development of the subject properties. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: Not applicable CONFORMITY TO CITY POLICY: These requirements are in compliance with the City Code of Ordinances, Sec. 49 -13. EMERGENCY / NON - EMERGENCY: Non - Emergency DEPARTMENTAL CLEARANCES: All public and franchised utilities were contacted. None of the City departments or franchised utility companies had any facilities within or objections to the proposed easement closure. FINANCIAL IMPACT: ❑ Operating ❑ Revenue ❑ Capital Not applicable Fiscal Year: 2011- 2012 Project to Date Expenditures (CIP only) Current Year Future Years TOTALS Line Item Budget Encumbered / Expended Amount This item BALANCE Fund(s): Comments: None RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the easement closure.

CAPTION: Ordinance abandoning and vacating a 10 -foot wide utility easement out of Lot 5, Block 1, Joslin Tracts; and requiring the owner, The Alexan Resort on the Bay, LLC, to comply with the specified conditions. PURPOSE: The purpose of this item is to eliminate a utility easement and allow for the future development of the subject property. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Bass and Welsh Engineering, acting as agent on behalf of The Alexan Resort on the Bay, LLC ( "Owner "), is requesting the abandonment and vacation of a 10 -foot wide utility easement (3,092.76- square -feet) out of Lot 5, Block 1, Joslin Tracts. The property is located east of Ennis Joslin Road and north of South Padre Island Drive (State Highway 358). The 10 -foot utility easement being abandoned and vacated was originally dedicated for a City gas line that has since been abandoned. The abandonment and vacation of the utility easement is requested in order to accommodate the future development of the subject property. Staff recommends that payment of fair market value be waived in accordance with City Code of Ordinance Sec. 49 -12, because Owner will be replatting said property and upon replatting will be dedicating utility easements of equal or greater value to off -set the proposed abandonment and vacation of the easement. The Owner must also comply with all the specified conditions of the abandon and vacate ordinance within 180 days of Council approval. ALTERNATIVES: Denial of the utility easement closure. This will, however, adversely impact the Owner's ability to move forward with future development of the subject property.

The property to be rezoned is described as South Staples Center, Lot B -4, located on the northeast corner of South Staples Street and Gollihar Road between Everhart Road and Caddo Street. PURPOSE: The purpose of this item is to rezone the property to allow for the continued operation of a testing and manufacturing facility and to modify the property's existing Special Permit conditions. RECOMMENDATION: Planning Commission and Staff Recommendation (August 15, 2012): Denial of the change of zoning from the "CG -2 /SP" General Commercial District with a Special Permit to the "IL" Light Industrial District and, in lieu thereof, approval of the "CG -2 /SP" General Commercial District with a modified Special Permit subject to the following eight conditions: 1.) ALLOWED USES: The only use authorized by the Owner under this Special Permit, other than the basic uses by right in the "CG -2" General Commercial District, is a resistor assembly plant. 2.) FLOOR AREA: The floor area of the facility and related offices and storage areas cannot exceed 110,000 square feet. 3.) ABOVEGROUND TANKS: Outdoor aboveground storage tanks may be utilized by the Owner for the storage of liquid nitrogen so long as the combined total storage capacity of the tanks does not exceed 24,000 gallons. The tanks cannot be located closer than 60 feet from the northeast property line abutting the single - family neighborhood. 4.) OUTSIDE STORAGE: Outside storage, except for the aboveground storage tanks, is not allowed on the property. Any storage of hazardous materials by the Owner must be stored inside the existing facility and is subject, at all times, to the approval of the City's Fire Marshal and Building Official. 5.) SCREENING FENCE: A standard screening fence with a height of not less than six (6) feet must be installed and maintained by the Owner along the northeast property line abutting the single - family neighborhood. The fence must be installed within one (1) year from the date of this ordinance. 6.) LANDSCAPING: A landscaping strip with a width of not less than five (5) feet must be located along the South Staples Street, Gollihar Road, and Caddo Street public rights -of- way. The landscaping strip must contain ground cover and shrubs in accordance with the Unified Development Code's approved plant list. The Owner must ensure that all landscaping is kept in a healthy and growing condition at all times. Landscaping must be installed within one (1) year from the date of this ordinance. 7.) ACCESS: No driveways or direct access is permitted onto Everhart Road or Jacquelyn Drive. 8.) TIME LIMIT: This Special Permit expires one (1) year from the approval date of this ordinance unless the property is being used for the purpose outlined in Condition 1 and all other conditions are being met by the Owner. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: The applicant is requesting a change of zoning to modify the existing Special Permit conditions. The applicant is requesting an increase in the amount of liquid nitrogen storage from 12,000 gallons to 24,000 gallons and a minor increase in the floor area of the facility. The facility tests and manufactures resistors, sensors, and other resistive devices and uses liquid nitrogen to test electronic parts' viability at low temperatures. The Fire Department has no objection to the increased amount of liquid nitrogen for the facility. The applicant received its first Special Permit in 1975 at this location and has since been granted four modifications to the Special Permit conditions over the years. North of the subject property is a low density, single - family subdivision that is zoned as the "RS -6" Single - Family 6 District. West of the subject property is a Stripes Gas Station which is zoned in the "CG -2" General Commercial District. South of the subject property are multiple car lots which are zoned in the "Cl" Intensive Commercial District and the "CG -2" General Commercial District. East of the property, there are a few commercial uses including restaurants and a Montessori school, which are all zoned a "CG -2" District. There are also multifamily housing units (Lamplighter Apartments) to the east of the property. Staff does not recommend a change of the zoning district to the "IL" Light Industrial District because the subject property borders residential and commercial uses. Granting the facility a Special Permit will accommodate the facility's needs while protecting the surrounding area from future incompatible industrial uses. The applicant is in agreement with the Planning Commission and Staff recommendation of a Special Permit. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve an intermediate zoning district or Special Permit; or 2. Grant the applicant's original request of the "IL" Light Industrial District; or 3. Deny the request. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: Not Applicable CONFORMITY TO CITY POLICY: A change of zoning to the "IL" Light Industrial District is not consistent with the adopted Future Land Use Plan, which slates the property for commercial uses. Granting a Special Permit would retain the commercial designation of the property in the Future Land Use Plan rather than light industrial.

The facility was first granted a Special Permit in 1975 and over time has received several amendments to the Special Permit conditions. In 1984, the Special Permit was amended to permit one aboveground liquid nitrogen storage tank at the rear of the building. A 1987 amendment permitted the facility to expand its floor area. A 1987 amendment permitted the facility an additional 6,075 square feet of storage area. Lastly, in 1998, the Special Permit was amended permit two liquid nitrogen storage tanks each with a capacity of 6,000 gallons. Today, the applicant is seeking an amendment to the Special Permit conditions to allow for additional storage tanks for liquid nitrogen with a capacity not to exceed 24,000 gallons. See current Special Permit conditions in Attachment 2. Applicant's Development Plan: The applicant recently remodeled its facility by converting existing storage space into work space to accommodate production levels. In conjunction with the additional workspace needed, the applicant needs additional quantities of liquid nitrogen on site to meet business demands. No increase in floor area is need at this time, but a minimal amount of additional space could be needed in the future, which is why the applicant is requesting the floor area limitation of the existing Special Permit be increased by 4,150 square feet. The applicant has met with the Fire Department which does not have any concern with liquid nitrogen tanks located on the subject property. Liquid nitrogen does not have explosive properties. Liquid nitrogen has freezing capabilities and the applicant uses the liquid nitrogen to test electronic parts' viability at low temperatures. Existing Land Uses & Zoning: Located to the north of the subject property is a single - family subdivision, which is zoned as the "RS -6" Single - Family 6 District, and the Anthony Aveda Salon on Everhart Road in a "CN -2" Neighborhood Commercial District. Located to the west of the subject property is a Stripes Gas Station, which is zoned as the "CG -2" General Commercial District. To the south of the subject property are Frost Bank and multiple car sales lots, which are zoned as the "Cl" Intensive Commercial District and the "CG -2" General Commercial Zoning Report Case #0812 -04 International Resistive Company Page 3 District. To the east of the subject property are a restaurant and Montessori school, which are zoned as the "CG -2" District. To the east across Caddo Street are the Lamplighter Condominiums. AICUZ: The subject property is not located in one of the Navy's Air Installation Compatibility Use Zones (AICUZ). Comprehensive Plan & Area Development Plan (ADP) Consistency: The proposed change of zoning to an industrial use is not consistent with the adopted Future Land Use Plan, which slates the subject property for commercial uses. Additionally, the following pertinent elements of the Comprehensive Plan and Southeast Area Development Plan (ADP) should be considered: • Expansion of commercial uses into residential areas may be permitted only if the expansion maintains or improves the residential desirability of the impacted neighborhood. (Commercial Land Use Policy D) • Commercial uses adjacent to existing or proposed residential areas should be buffered. Traffic from commercial areas should be routed away from residential areas. (Residential Land Use Policy C) • Provide adequate and suitable -zoned land for both light and heavy industries (Comprehensive Plan, Industrial Land Use Policy A). • An active program should be developed to retain and expand existing industry (Comprehensive Plan, Industrial Land Use Policy B). • Residential areas should be protected from some of the more intensive commercial uses that are in the southeast area (Southeast Area Development Plan, Policy Statement B.12). Transportation & Access: The subject property has sufficient access to an arterial -type street (South Staples Street). The facility has existing driveways on Gollihar Road, South Staples Street, and Caddo Street. Access to Everhart Road or Jacquelyn Drive is not permitted. The driveway on Caddo Street leads to the back of the facility. Plat Status: The subject property is platted. Department Comments: • An "IL" Light Industrial District would not be appropriate for this location, which is surrounded by commercial and residential uses. • A special permit can afford protection to the surrounding areas by specifying development or operational conditions that the applicant must abide by while allowing the applicant to continue operating on the subject property. • The Fire Department has no objections to the increased quantities of liquid nitrogen stored in aboveground tanks. Therefore staff can support the request to modify the Special Permit. • Granting a Special Permit overlay district and retaining the "CG -2" General Commercial as the subject property's base district would prevent future light industrial users from occupying this property if the resistor assembly facility were to relocate. Maintaining the "CG -2" District as the based district would be consistent with the Future Land Use Plan and would be more appropriate for the adjacent single - family and commercial uses. • Traffic generated by the facility is not expected to traverse the adjacent single - family neighborhood. Zoning Report Case #0812 -04 International Resistive Company Page 4 • The establishment has been in this location since 1975 and does not appear to generate significant nuisances typical of other light industrial businesses. Special Permits are intended to help prevent nuisances. Planninq Commission and Staff Recommendation (August 15, 2012): Denial of the change of zoning from the "CG -2 /SP" General Commercial District with a Special Permit to the "IL" Light Industrial District and, in lieu thereof, approval of the "CG -2" General Commercial District with a modified Special Permit subject to the following eight conditions: 1.

The tanks cannot be located closer than 60 feet from the northeast property line abutting the single - family neighborhood. 4. OUTSIDE STORAGE: Outside storage, except for the aboveground storage tanks, is not allowed on the property. Any storage of hazardous materials by the Owner must be stored inside the existing facility and is subject, at all times, to the approval of the City's Fire Marshal and Building Official. 5. SCREENING FENCE: A standard screening fence with a height of not less than six (6) feet must be installed and maintained by the Owner along the northeast property line abutting the single - family neighborhood.
