+ Public Works Director Jim Baddaker introduced the issue, noting that the �
i utility studies were deemed necessary as a result of land use changes during
the City-wide rezoning in 1984. He advised that certain developers had agreed
' to pay for the studies, which projected the City's utility needs through build ;
; out estimated in the year 2027. �
� ;:.
Mr. John Grant of Freese & Nichols consulting engineers then gave a lengthy
presentation and review of the Water Distribution System update. He noted the
' study was a Master Plan for the water system, which estimated the City's
� maximum population of 62,800 to be reached in the year 2000. Maximtun build
� out of co�tercial, �ndustrial, and hotel-corporate office uses was projected �
� for 2027. e
� �
Mr. Grant noted 1) the numb�r of acres currently developed and 2) the rnm�ber
of acres zoned but presently undeveloped for various land uses. The average
daily water constunption in the different land uses was also discussed. �
Maximtun average daily water constunption at build out was estim�zted to be �
16.34 Ni�. The City's water sources 1)Lake Grapevine and 2) Trinity River �:
Authority and the areas proposed to be served by each were also reviewed. �
f
S
Proposed. improvements to the water treatsnent plant and distribution lines were
� noted, as w�ell as expansion of ground storage, pumping, and elevated storage �
capacities.

Topics of the ensuing Council discussion included 1) differences in water con-
stunption if the Hotel/Corporate Office develognents are built with all hotels
versus hotel and office develognent, 2) proposed Trinity River Authority ser-
vice area, and 3) the possibility of a State-wide water conservation program
and potential effects on the City's water plan.
Mr. Bob Nichols, representing Freese & Nichols engineers, also offered
camtients.
NOTE: Mayor Pow�ers arrived during this Council deliberation.
The update of the Wastewater Collection Syst�n was then presented. Mr. Grant
reported projected flavs in the areas to be serviced by 1) the City's Peach
Street treatment plant and 2) the Trinity River Authority facilities. It was
recamlended that the Peach Street sewer treatment plant eventually be expanded
to acc�date a maximtun capacity of 7.0 NIGD at build out.
Public Works Director Jim Baddaker advised of requirements imposed by the
Texas Water Cc�mission relative to plant expansion and providing 24 hour per
day imnitoring of the plant.
A brief period of Council inquixies ensued, after which Mr. Baddaker noted the
possibility of obtaining a third water supplier. He requested authorization
to approach the City of Dallas for negotiation of a long-term water supply
agreement.

C�ission to review and discuss the concept plan for improvements to Dallas
Road as presented by Freese & Nichols consulting engineers and take any
necessary action.
Mr. John Jones and Ms. Diane Pa]mer were the engineers representing Freese &
�
Nichols on this project. Mr. Jones reported that concept plan drawings had
been prepared for proposed improvements to Dallas Rr�ad frcert Ball Street east
to Spur 382. He noted the Council's desire to have the State Highway desig-
nation transferred frcen Main Street to Dallas Road and advised the project had
been designed to meet the requirements of the State Highway Depart�nent. A
rough cost estunate of $4 million was projected utilizi.ng concrete pavement. i
Ms. Pa]mer then presented slides of the roadway and condition of Dallas Road
at the present time. Water sheds affecting drainage on the project were also �
noted. She then referred to engineering drawings depicting the concept plan
for the proposed widening of Dallas Road. Additional rightrof-way was pro- �
posed to be acquired fran both sides of the roadway fran Ball Street to the �
Dooley Street intersection. Fran that point east to Spur 382 the additional �
right-of-way was proposed to be obtained fran the south side of the
thoroughfare. Ms. Palmer noted the location of inedians and median cuts to �
control traffic flow. A dual left turn lane was proposed fran the American
Pad & Paper Co. on the east side of Main Street east to Berry Street.
Also noted in the presentation were rec�nded improvements to Minters Chapel
Road and realignment of Dooley Street froan the railroad tracks south to Dallas
Road to intersect with Berry Street, west of the existing Dooley Street inter-
section. Repositioning of the Ira E. Woods/Hudgins Street intersection at
Dallas Road was also rec�nded for traffic safety.
The feasibility of the project was then discussed, as tn�ll as the possibility �
of signalization at the Main Street/Dallas Rpad intersection. The
thoroughfaxe plan proposal for pooley Street was also a topic of discussion.

� REVIEW, TRAFFIC STUDY/THOROUGHFARE PLAN, 1985 UPDATE �
£
�
The next order of business was for the City Council and Planning & Zoning ;I,
Conmission to review and discuss the traffic study/thoroughfare plan update �
as presented by Freese & Nichols consulting engineers and take any necessary �
action.
�
K
� Public Works Director Jim Baddaker advised that in addition to updating the s
City's thoroughfare plan and design of the road netwc�rk through the year 2027, �
the traffic study was also to be utilized to calculate a proposed traffic �
impact fee to be charged new develogn�ents. �
� Mr. Tony Reid, -Mr. Dan Balw�ell, and Mr. Mark Mendez were the Freese & Nichols `
� personnel w�rking on the traffic study update. Mr. Reid advised the study was �
� in a prel.iminary stage. He reviewed land uses utilized to figure traffic ,
i zones. Mr. Reid explained that build out of the City at all the maxim�Bn i
densities allowed by current zoning was probably not a realistic asstunption.
� Nbre practical density figures w�ere utilized in the study. He reviewed trip
,
generation and the different levels of service on roadways.
,
� � Calculation of the proposed impact fee and its relationship to the traffic �
� study were then addressed by Mr. Dan Balwell. He noted the impact fee was a `
i n�a concept and reviewed calculation steps as follows: 1) Identify links, 2) �
' Establish traffic voliune, 3) Establish construction costs, 4) Determine �
; developnent contribution (utilizing # of trips generated by a certain develop- "
' ment as a percentage of the whole, as proposed in the study) , and 5) Establish `
' the fee. In order to proceed with the project and preparation of a ccHnputer i
' model, Mr. Balwell solicited Council input as to the preferred level of r
{ service on City streets.
�
,
Points of clarification relative to the process for determining impact fees
w�ere addressed during the ensuing deliberation.
€
k
Although a formal vote of the Council was not taken, the general concensus �;
agreed upon running the preliminary computer model at service levels C and D �
� for ccenparison. `

� MISC�,L�ANEOUS REPORTS AND/OR DISCUSSION �.
�
a Council M�ember Glynn then reported that the Facilities Committee, by a vote of s
� 2 to 1, rec�.nded the City continue using Hatfield/Halcomb architects for a
� design of the civic center facility. He noted the project was estimated to be x
� $2 million, and the architects had agreed to a 6.9� ccanmission, not to exceed ;
� $138,000. �
� �
�
� Lengthy Council discussion followed, _during which reasons in support of the g
recamlendation included continuity of the project and time savings. The �
� dissenting vote on the Ccamittee was due mainly to previous unexplained, under ;,
; estim-�ted projects by the same architects, which w�ere then addressed. 4
