>> ALL RIGHT. WELCOME, EVERYBODY.
[CALL TO ORDER]
I HAVE 6 O'CLOCK.WE WILL BRING THIS MEETING TO ORDER.
OUR FIRST ITEM IS, IF YOU'RE ABLE TO PLEASE, STAND AND JOIN ME IN A MOMENT OF SILENCE.
AT THIS TIME, I WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE SANTA CLAUS.
SANTA CLAUS, WOULD YOU COME ON UP FOR A MOMENT?
>> YOU'RE COMMITTED TO THE CIVIC SERVICE OF THE CITY OF TEXAS THIS IS REALLY AWESOME.
I THOUGHT WITH YOU BEING HERE TONIGHT, THAT MAYBE YOU CAN LEAD US IN THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE.
I WANTED TO GIVE YOU A CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION FOR DOING THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE FOR OUR CITY TONIGHT.

CONSIDER AND TAKE ACTION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES FOR THE 2024 POCO WATERLINE ENGINEERING STUDY.>> MAYOR AND COUNCIL GOOD EVENING.
SUZY, IF YOU DON'T MIND. THANK YOU.
RHONDA. PUT TOGETHER A GRAPHIC FOR YOU.
WE'RE CALLING THIS PROJECT THE POCO WATERLINE PROJECT.
IF YOU'LL RECALL, WE'RE GOING THROUGH THE STEPS RIGHT NOW TO ISSUE DEBT FOR SEVERAL WATERLINE PROJECTS.
THIS IS THE FIRST ONE THAT WE'RE BRINGING BEFORE YOU TO APPROVE THE ENGINEERING PIECE OF THIS.
IF YOU LOOK ON PAGE EIGHT OF YOUR PACKET, IT LISTS FIVE DIFFERENT TASKS THESE FUNDS WILL COVER.
THAT'S ESSENTIALLY THE PRELIMINARY DESIGN, THE FINAL DESIGN BIDDING CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION.
THEY'LL HELP STAFF DO THE CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION PIECE.
IT IS VALUED AT $125,000 THAT IS ESTIMATED.
THE CONTRACT DETAILS HOW THAT PRICE COULD EBB OR FLOW.
THESE FUNDS WILL INITIALLY BE COVERED ON A FUND TOO, WHICH IS OUR WATER AND SEWER FUND.
THEN AS THE DEBT BECOMES AN ISSUED IN QUARTER 1 OF '24, WE WILL REIMBURSE OURSELVES FROM THOSE BOND FUNDS.
SO THIS IS A NATURAL STEP TO GET THE ENGINEERING PIECE MOVING SO THAT THIS PROJECT STAYS ON TRACK.
THE IMAGE THAT'S UP ON THE SCREEN THERE SHOWS HOW THE BLUE LINES OFF TO THE LEFT OF THE SCREEN, THOSE REPRESENT EXISTING 12 AND SIX-INCH WATER LINES.
THE NEW 12 IS REPRESENTED BY THE RED THAT WILL TIE IN ON NEWARK STREET AND GO NORTH FROM THERE TOWARDS BUSINESS 380 AND THEN SKIRT THE POCO PROJECTS ON THE EAST SIDE OF 380, CONNECTING WITH AN EXISTING 12-INCH ALONG THE HIGHWAY 380 RIGHT-OF-WAY.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS.
OTHERWISE, I'D BE LOOKING FOR A MOTION TO PROCEED WITH SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT AND MOVING FORWARD WITH ENGINEERING.
>> ALRIGHT. COUNCIL, ANY QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. WE'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION.
>> MR. MAYOR, I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES FOR THE 2024 POCO WATERLINE ENGINEERING STUDIES.
>> ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A MOTION AND WE HAVE A SECOND.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
>> OPPOSED, SAME SIGN. ALL RIGHT, THAT PASSES. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
ITEM 2, CONSIDER AND TAKE ACTION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE
[2. CONSIDER AND TAKE ACTION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN ENGINEERING AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. FOR PLANNING SERVICES.]
AN ENGINEERING AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES FOR PLANNING SERVICES.>> MAYOR AND COUNCIL IN THE SAME SPIRIT OF CONTRACTS, WE HAVE A CONTRACT WITH KIMLEY-HORN, THE PLANNING DIVISION.
WE ARE AT A POINT INSIDE OF PLANNING WHERE WE NEED A PLANNER TO TACKLE MORE THAN JUST ONE OR TWO ACCESSORY TASKS.
WE HAVE A GENERAL SERVICES CONTRACT WITH KIMLEY-HORN.
BUT IN THIS SITUATION, WE NEED THE WORK TO CONTINUE SEVERAL MONTHS, AND WE WANTED A GUARANTEED MAX PRICE.
SO IF YOU LOOK ON PAGE 10 OF YOUR PACKET, YOU WILL SEE THAT THE TERMS OF COMPENSATION DETAIL A GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE OF PLANNING SERVICES AT $49,000.
PAGE 12 OF YOUR PACKET DETAILS OF THE VARIOUS COSTS DEPENDING ON HOW WE USE THOSE CONTRACTS,
[00:05:01]
STAFF MEMBERS, AND WE DO HAVE FUNDS IN THE CURRENT PLANNING BUDGET TO COVER CONTRACT SERVICES.THIS WOULD BE THE FIRST TIME WE BROUGHT A PLANNER CONTRACT BEFORE YOU BECAUSE IT WILL BE USED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR ALLOW FOR MAYBE WAYNE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS AS HE'S COVERING FOR THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT AT THE MOMENT.
BUT THIS IS JUST A GENERAL CONTRACT THAT REQUIRES YOUR APPROVAL TO PROCEED TO A MAX PRICE OF $49,000.
IT'S CURRENTLY BUDGETED IN PLANNING.
>> VERY GOOD. COUNCIL, QUESTIONS? LOOK FOR A MOTION.
>> MR. MAYOR I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN ENGINEERING AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC., FOR PLANNING SERVICES.
>> SO WE HAVE A MOTION AND ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
>> OPPOSED, SAME SIGN. ALL RIGHT, THAT PASSES.
>> THANK YOU, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.
>> THANK YOU. WE WILL NOW GO INTO A PUBLIC HEARING AND
[3. CP2023-05 CONSIDER FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AND A PUBLIC HEARING GIVING ALL INTERESTED PERSONS THE RIGHT TO APPEAR AND BE HEARD ON AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND FUTURE LAND USE MAP, FOR AN APPROXIMATE 7.795 ACRES OF LAND LOCATED AT 201 N. CHICO ST., 203 N. CHICO ST., 205 N. CHICO ST., 208 N. CHICO ST., 209 N. CHICO ST., AND 217 N. CHICO ST. AND INCLUDING APPROXIMATELY 0.502 ACRES TO THE CENTERLINE OF N. CHICO ST., 0.799 ACRES TO THE CENTERLINE OF N. HIGHWAY 81-287 BUSINESS, 0.245 ACRES OF W. AUCTION ST., AND 0.244 ACRES TO THE CENTERLINE OF W. WALNUT ST. WHERE ADJACENT TO THE SUBJECT TRACTS FROM COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL LAND USE (CC) TO ACTIVITY CENTER LAND USE (AC). (COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT APPLICATION 2023-05—CITY OF DECATUR) (THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMEND APPROVAL, 5-0, VICE-CHAIRMAN KLOSE ABSENT.)]
WE'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR ITEM 3 AT 06:06.THIS IS A FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE FOR AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
>> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.
THIS IS A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT TO CHANGE THE LAND USE FROM COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO ACTIVITY CENTER FOR THE PROPERTY IN AND AROUND CHICO STREET, THE LOCATION MAP THAT'S UP THERE RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS MORE IN LINE WITH HOW THAT PROPERTY IS DEVELOPING.
OF COURSE, THE ACTIVITY CENTER ALLOWS FOR SOME MORE USES TO IT THAN DOES THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL.
THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL IS MORE IN LINE WITH SMALLER SHOPS AND SMALL STRIP CENTERS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
WHERE THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DOES ALLOW FOR A WIDER ARRAY OF THINGS TO GO IN THERE.
SO IT WOULD CHANGE THE LAND USE FOR THESE PROPERTIES THAT ARE SHADED ON THE MAP.
THIS IS A REQUEST FROM THE CITY OF DECATUR, STAFF INITIATED FOR APPROXIMATELY 7.795 ACRES TO HAVE THAT LAND USE CHANGED FROM COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO ACTIVITY CENTER.
IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE 2050 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE ZONING WOULD REMAIN THE SAME C2 ZONING THAT'S IN PLACE FOR THAT FOR THOROUGHFARE BUSINESS DISTRICT.
I HAVE A LIST OF SOME OF THE THINGS THAT ARE ALLOWED.
AN ACTIVITY CENTER OFFERS THE ABILITY TO LIVE, WORK, AND PLAY IN ONE GEOGRAPHICAL COMPACT AREA WITH A HIGH-INTENSITY OF USES ORGANIZED AROUND NODES OF ACTIVITY.
PROVIDES A MIXTURE OF DIFFERENT HOUSING OPTIONS WITHIN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE GOODS AND SERVICES THAT RESIDENTS USE ON A DAILY BASIS, AND MAY ALSO SERVE AS A EMPLOYMENT CENTER AND SHOPPING DESTINATION.
PRIMARY LAND USES, RETAIL, COMMERCIAL CONDOMINIUMS, APARTMENTS, OFFICES, HOTELS, ENTERTAINMENT CENTERS, SERVICES, AND OFFICE USES WITH A SECONDARY LAND USE OF CIVIC AND INSTITUTIONAL USES.
FOR ANY DEVELOPMENT MAY OCCUR AN APPLICANT WILL HAVE TO SUBMIT PLANNING AND BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATIONS.
THIS IS THE EXISTING LAND USE MAP ON THE LEFT AND THE PROPOSED LAND USE MAP ON THE RIGHT.
THE ZONING REMAINS THE SAME, C2, IT'S NOT CHANGING.
26 PROPERTY OWNERS WERE NOTIFIED, HAD NO OPPOSITION, NO IN FAVOR, AND NO NEUTRAL TO THIS, NO RESPONSES AT ALL WERE RECEIVED.
STAFF DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT 2023-05.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL 5-0, WITH VICE CHAIRMAN KLOSE ABSENT.
COUNCIL, ANY QUESTIONS? THIS IS OUR FIRST READING AND WE WILL NOW CLOSE THIS ITEM AT 6:09.
[4. SI2023-03 CONSIDER FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AND A PUBLIC HEARING GIVING ALL INTERESTED PERSONS THE RIGHT TO APPEAR AND BE HEARD ON AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SUBSECTION E, “SPECIAL REGULATIONS,” OF SECTION 5.1.6, “MF, MULTIPLEFAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT” OF ARTICLE 5, “ZONING DISTRICTS” OF APPENDIX “B,” “ZONING” OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF DECATUR, TEXAS TO INCREASE THE MAXIMUM PER FLOOR SQUARE FOOTAGE ALLOWED FOR MULTIPLE-FAMILY STRUCTURES IN THE C-2 THOROUGHFARE BUSINESS ZONING DISTRICT. (STAFF INITIATED APPLICATION 2023-03—CITY OF DECATUR) (THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMEND APPROVAL, 5-0, VICE-CHAIRMAN KLOSE ABSENT.)]
WHICH IS ALSO A PUBLIC HEARING.THIS IS CONSIDERED FIRST READING IN AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SUBSECTION E, SPECIAL REGULATIONS SUBSECTION 5.1.6, APPLICATION 2023-03.
>> THIS IS A STAFF-INITIATED ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT.
IF YOU REMEMBER, BACK IN OCTOBER 2018,
[00:10:05]
WE INCREASED THE SIZE OF MULTI-FAMILY STRUCTURES IN ALL AREAS.IT WAS AT 6,000 BEFORE WE RAISED IT TO 12,000 ON THAT.
THIS PARTICULAR ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT WILL ONLY APPLY TO C2 ZONED PROPERTIES, THE MULTI-FAMILY ZONED PROPERTIES WOULD REMAIN THE SAME.
WHAT WE FOUND IS THAT SOME OF THE AREAS THAT ARE BEING DEVELOPED THAT ARE WITHIN THE C2 ARE WANTING LARGER FOOTPRINTS FOR THIS, AND THIS WOULD ALLOW THAT OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A LARGER FOOTPRINT FOR A MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT ON THAT PROPERTY, WE WOULD NOT LIMIT IT TO 12,000 SQUARE FEET.
THE OVERALL VIEW OF THIS IS IT WOULD STILL REVERT BACK TO BUILDING CODE, HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS, AND OTHER ZONING ORDINANCES THAT ARE IN PLACE WITH THAT, WHICH INCLUDE LOT AREA, WHICH WOULD STILL REMAIN AT 2 STOREYS BELOW, 2,100 SQUARE FOOT PER UNIT, OVER 2 STOREYS IS IT ADDS AN ADDITIONAL 600 SQUARE FEET PER UNIT.
STILL REMAIN AT MAXIMUM 50% LOT COVERAGE AND 21 ACRES PER UNIT, WHICH IS THE CURRENT ZONING ORDINANCE REQUIREMENT FOR MULTI-FAMILY.
THIS WOULD ONLY INCREASE THE ALLOWABLE SQUARE FOOTAGE PER FLOOR IN THE C-2 ZONE AND WOULD REMOVE THE HEIGHT RESTRICTION WHICH IS CURRENTLY AT 3 STOREYS FOR A MULTI-FAMILY PROJECT.
>> IS THIS A COST-SAVING MEASURE BY THE DEVELOPER?
>> ONE OF THE DEVELOPMENTS THAT'S GOING IN THAT PARTICULAR AREA, IT HAS A SLIGHTLY LARGER FOOTPRINT THAT WORKS FOR THEM.
WE'RE WANTING TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MOVE AROUND THIS AND SEE WHAT THEIR OPTIONS WERE.
AFTER WE REVIEWED THIS, THE THOUGHT PROCESS ON THAT WAS IS THAT YOU COULD HAVE A WALMART OR A RETAIL USE NEXT DOOR TO THIS, AS LARGE AS YOU COULD MAKE IT, DEPENDING ON THE SIDE.
IF YOU MOVED ACROSS THE STREET AND TRIED TO PUT UP A MULTI-FAMILY STRUCTURE, IT WOULD BE LIMITED TO 12,000 SQUARE FEET.
SO YES, IT IS TOO AS A COST-SAVING MEASURE FOR THAT DEVELOPER TO INCLUDE THAT ALL-IN-ONE BUILDING RATHER THAN SPLIT IT INTO TWO BUILDINGS.
AGAIN, THE ZONING ORDINANCES THAT ARE IN PLACE WOULD STILL REMAIN IN PLACE.
BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS FOR HEIGHT AND AREA WOULD STILL REMAIN IN EFFECT.
AIRPORT ZONING REGULATIONS WOULD STILL APPLY IN ANY PLACE THAT HAS AN AIRPORT ZONING DISTRICT.
SO THE HEIGHT RESTRICTION WOULD STILL HAVE TO BE BELOW THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE AIRPORT ZONING DISTRICT.
>> THE HEIGHT FOR CODE STILL APPLIES, BUT THE HEIGHT FOR MULTI-FAMILY.
EXPLAIN THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE TO ME.
>> AS IT IS CURRENTLY, EVEN IN A C2 ZONED PROPERTY, A MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT WOULD HAVE TO MEET THE SAME REGULATIONS AS A MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT IN A MULTI-FAMILY ZONED PROPERTY.
YOUR MULTI-FAMILY ZONE PROPERTIES ARE GENERALLY TO BUFFER BETWEEN COMMERCIAL AREAS AND RESIDENTIAL AREAS.
YOU WANTED TO LIMIT THAT HEIGHT IN THAT AREA, THE MULTI-FAMILY ZONING.
BUT IN THE C2 ZONE, THOSE ARE NOT GENERALLY ADJACENT TO RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS, SO WE FELT LIKE IT MADE SENSE TO TAKE OUT THAT AREA RESTRICTION THAT WAS ON THAT FOR DEVELOPMENT IN A C2 ZONE.
>> I'VE GOT ALL THAT. [LAUGHTER]. IT DEPENDS ON TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION.
RIGHT NOW, V-B CONSTRUCTION, STICK FRAME CONSTRUCTION, MAXIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE ON THAT BY BUILDING CODE WOULD BE 21,000 SQUARE FEET.
YOU MOVE UP TO A NON-COMBUSTIBLE TYPE CONSTRUCTION 2B TYPE CONSTRUCTION, IT MOVES TO 48,000 SQUARE FEET.
YOU MOVE INTO A TYPE 1 CONSTRUCTION WHICH REQUIRES SOME FIREWALLS DEPENDING ON INTERIOR, EXTERIOR, BUT THEY ARE BUILT AS FIRE BARRIERS IN THERE.
YOU CAN MOVE UP INTO AN UNLIMITED-AREA BUILDING,
[00:15:04]
BUT YOU'RE LIMITED BY THE SIZE OF GEOGRAPHIC AREA OF YOUR LOT AT THAT POINT.>> HEIGHT-WISE, THE STICK FRAME CONSTRUCTION WOULD BE A MAXIMUM OF 3 STOREYS, WHICH IS THE SAME AS IT WOULD BE FOR THE ZONING, TO BE THE NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION, BE UP TO 5 STORIES.
AND THEN ONCE YOU MOVE INTO THE TYPE 1 CONSTRUCTION WITH FIRE-RATED WALLS INSIDE THAT, YOU CAN GO UP TO 12 STOREYS.
YOU ARE STILL LIMITED BY THE AREA THAT YOU'RE ON.
THAT'S WHAT THE ZONING REGULATIONS ALLOW FOR IT TO RESTRICT THAT SIZE BASED ON OTHER FACTORS THAT ARE IN PLACE.
LOT COVERAGE, MAXIMUM NUMBER OF DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE, THINGS LIKE THAT.
>> CHIEF [INAUDIBLE], WHAT'S OUR SAFETY?
>> CAN YOU CLARIFY THAT, WHAT'S THE SAFETY PIECE, WHAT?
>> WHAT'S OUR SAFETY FOR HEIGHT, ON AN APARTMENT COMPLEX?
>> WE'RE ONLY GOING TO GET A 100-FOOT OUT OF THE LADDER TRUCK, EVERYTHING ELSE IS STAIRWELLS WHEN IT COMES TO FIREFIGHTING.
>> STAFF DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL, AND PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL 5-0 WITH VICE-CHAIRMAN CLOSEY ABSIN.
>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? SO WE WILL CLOSE THIS ITEM, IT'S 06: 17.
WE WILL GO TO ITEM 5 AND OPEN THAT UP AT 06:17.
