City Manager James Berzina stated that it is a budgeted item, but it will restore the funds used for the Human Relations banquet. Councilman Palmer asked why this group has a banquet, and others don't? Is there something special about it? Mr. Berzina stated that they identified this as one of their priorities from the beginning. They want the money used for that activity to come back to their budget for use in other activities. The motion was carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item 5b ORDINANCE NO. 24-85 ORDINANCE CHANGING THE SECOND REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING IN MARCH, 1985, TO MARCH 27 AT 8:30 O'CLOCK A.M. Moved by Councilman Thomas that Ordinance No. 24-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Wilson. Since there are only six days until the next council meeting, the Council suggested that this agenda be kept to a minimum, and only have the zoning ordinance hearing. The motion was carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilman Swift, Thomas , Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None 671 Item 6a Moved by Councilman Harper, for discussion, that the bid for a tank mounted air compressor be awarded to Dallas Compressor, in the amount of $5,511. Motion seconded by Councilman Welburn. i i Councilman Harper stated that he had not heard of this compressor before. Purchasing Agent Dick Arndt stated that it is a reputable compressor. Council- man Thomas stated that they have a representative in Wichita Falls. They are the new owners of Galveston/Houston. The motion was carried unanimously. Item 8a The public hearing was opened on hazardous structures. Ralph Bullington, 1314 9th Street, stated that they use this building as storage. They are trying to get bids to see if they can fix it satisfac- torily, or tear it down. They would like more time, both to get bids, or if it cannot be fixed, more time to demolish it. Mayor Cook explained that he believed if work is being done within the 30-day period the Code Enforcement people will work with them, even if it has not been completed within the 30-day period. Nathan Brown appeared regarding 203 Homes and 205 Homes. He stated that they cannot put them in an original condition because it would be econom- ically impossible to do. The people who live in the area could not afford them. Mayor Cook asked if these structures were rented up until the time the Inspection Department contacted him, and Mr. Brown stated that they were. Mrs. Newcomb, Code Enforcement, stated that they started making repairs. The Building Inspector took a look at them. The structure was just being covered up with siding, and it was still a hazardous structure. He was instructed on how they needed to be repaired. Mr. Brown disagreed that they were being covered up. They were not finished. Discussion was held on the cost to repair the foundation, electrical , and plumbing. Councilman Swift asked how he got 207 Homes to comply with the code? Mr. Brown stated that they got to it before it was red-tagged. He stated that it meets Section 8 housing requirements. Councilman Harper asked if he took out a building permit for 207 Homes? Mr. Borwn stated that he thought he did. Mayor Cook stated that the primary purpose is to remove the structure, or repair it to bring it back to standards. What Mr. Brown is saying is that it is economically impossible to repair it to bring it back to standards. Councilman Harper noted that the Standard Building Code has been adopted, and it requires a concrete block foundation. Councilman Wilson asked what the difference is in repairing it or bringing it back to city code, and how many will not meet the city code? Mr. Brown stated most of them will not meet it. Councilman Wilson asked at what point the city can say that these changes are significant enough that you have to go with the new code? Mr. McKinney stated that they would look at the new code requirements on foundations. It would depend on how much electrical and plumbing had to be replaced. That would be the basis on making their decision. He would have to take out permits. Councilman Thomas asked how we would go on these old structures, and what guide we would use? He also asked if we use electrical and plumbing people who make their living that way, or do we just use our building inspection people? Councilman Harper stated that our inspectors are well qualified, and he hopes they continue that way. He does not want them to ever waive the code. As far as electrical work, they should go by the code. We have also adopted a standard housing code. Mrs. Newcomb stated that it depends on what needs to be done. Many times it is a judgement call on the part of the inspector. Mayor Cook confirmed that it is only those parts that the inspector feels needs to be made in compliance, and not all of it. Mr. McKinney stated that if 60 percent of the wiring needs to be replaced, they would require replacement of the entire 672 Item 8a, cont'd. wiring. Mayor Cook noted that all he is required to repair is what is unsafe for occupancy. Councilman Thomas asked if weight has anything to do with it? Mr. McKinney stated that if the foundation needs to be replaced, they have to look at our current foundation requirements. Councilman Thomas wondered if we should perhaps look at the use of bois d'arc posts? Mayor Cook stated that we would not ever want to recommend this until our boards and commissions have looked at it. It is not the Council ' s intent to be over burdensome, but it is our intent to bring structures back in compliance for the safety of those who occupy it. We need to inspect these buildings to make sure they meet code. Mayor Cook suggested that Mr. Brown meet with code enforcement officers to be specific on what is needed in those structures. He can then make a decision as to what he needs to do. Councilman Thomas suggested that he get some people to go through those older structures to see what can be done to make them up to code. He would like to see if the standpipe would be required to be placed inside, or leave it where it is if it meets the health code. Councilman Wilson agreed that it is a very cumbersome procedure, no matter how you go about it. Mayor Cook explained that inspectors have already used a great amount of judgement in this, and they are not requiring anything unreasonable to make them safe for occupancy. He further stated that Mr. Brown has 30 days to commence repairs according to the codes, or tear it down, based on his decision of the cost to repair. Mr. Brown needs to contact the code people so they can tell him what he needs to do. Councilman Thomas asked Mr. Brown to get with the Inspection Department to make some suggestions for future use. Mrs. Doyle R. Staley, 1906 D East Fort Worth Street, stated that her husband is disabled. They are in the process of selling the property. The new owner gave them the, money for permits to tear down the garage. She stated they will start on it tomorrow. Mayor Cook requested that she get with the Code Enforcement Department so they can explain what is needed. ORDINANCE NO. 25-85 ORDINANCE CLOSING HEARING AND FINDING CERTAIN BUILDINGS AND/OR STRUC- TURES TO BE DANGEROUS: COMMANDING PROPERTY OWNERS TO REPAIR OR DEMOLISH SAID BUILDINGS AND/OR STRUCTURES WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS ORDINANCE AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. Moved by Councilman Thomas that Ordinance 25-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Harper, and carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item 8b The public hearing was opened on Lake Arrowhead Rules and Regulations. RESOLUTION NO. 32-85 RESOLUTION AMENDING RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR LAKE ARROWHEAD TO PROVIDE FOR ANNUAL CHARGE TO LOT LESSEES TO FUND ROADWAY REPAIRS AND REFUSE COLLECTION; SETTING AMOUNT OF ANNUAL CHARGE FOR PERIOD FROM JUNE 1 , 1985, TO JUNE 1 , 1986. Moved by Councilman Thomas that Resolution No. 32-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Palmer. Mr. Bonnett stated that there are 595 lots and 565 of them are leased. Four hundred (400) are actually occupied on a full or part time basis. We are going with the number of lots actually leased. Councilman Harper confirmed that this charge would be in addition to what they pay for lot lease. Mr. Berzina stated they would range from $248 to $260. Mr. Bonnett stated that they would close the landfill . It involves a long process. They would take steps immediately to physically close it. 673 Item 8b, cont'd. Councilman Palmer confirmed that they would close the road leading to the landfill . Mr. Bonnett stated that it will cost approximately $53,000 for paving and partial reconstruction of about one-half mile. There will be on-going repairs made in the future. They will have once-a-week curbside garbage pickup. It will be done by private haulers. Once the landfill is closed, he believes we can operate within the $100 per year for each lessee. Councilman Thomas stated that $20.00 per month is pretty inexpensive for rental , road repair, and garbage pickup. Mr. Bonnett stated that they have drafted a proposal for reconstruction alternatives of the roads. Mayor Cook stated that if this is done in later years, the residents should be assessed further. Mr. Bonnett stated that in the future the leases may need to be increased. Mr. Hursh stated that the lease payments are due on June 1 , and delinquent on June 30. If it is not paid, they will proceed to cancel their lease. City Attorney H. P. Hodge stated that they have 60 days to move their improvements. Councilman Thomas asked if we are going to inspect these lots before June 1 to see if they are in compliance with the lease? Mr. Berzina stated that it will take a task force effort to inspect and make sure they are in compliance before the leases are renewed on June 1 . Councilman Wilson stated that if any are not leased, he would hope that document would come back to the Council to make sure it meets all the requirements. He also asked if we would have any money before the contractor needs to be paid? Mr. Bonnett stated that the contractor would need money in 30 days. Councilman Wilson stated that we are financing this project for our neighbors in Clay County to accommodate them. He does not believe it is the responsibility of the citizens of Wichita Falls to finance it on a reconstruction project, but at this point we will be financing it for them. Virgil Duffy appeared as Chairman of the Lake Arrowhead Association, stating that they would like to study this proposal the Council has made and seek further advice. Mayor Cook and Councilman Harper both stated that this is not a proposal . It is a resolution. Councilman Thomas stated that he hoped we made them happy. Councilman Palmer expressed his concern about the expenditure of $53,000 after the remarks made by Mr. Duffy. The motion for passage of the resolution was carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, and Welburn Nays: Councilman Palmer Item 9a Councilman Harper noted that he is the architect for Texas Electric on this project, and he wondered if there would be a conflict of interest. The alley closing has nothing to do with the project. City Attorney H. P. Hodge stated that there would be no conflict of interest. ORDINANCE NO. 26-85 AN ORDINANCE CLOSING, VACATING, AND ABANDONING TWO ALLEYS IN PROPOSED LOT 1 , BLOCK 1, TESCO T&D CENTER ADDITION, WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS Moved by Councilman Harper that Ordinance No. 26-85 be passed.

Moved by Councilman Thomas that Ordinance No. 27-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Welburn, and carried by following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn. Nays: None Item 9b ORDINANCE NO. 28-85 ORDINANCE MAKING AN APPROPRIATION FROM THE GENERAL FUND TO ACCOUNT NUMBER LISTED BELOW, AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. Moved by Councilman Thomas that Ordinance No. 28-85 be passed, and that we go all the way to collect this $53,120 from the Lake Arrowhead lessees. Motion seconded by Councilman Harper, and carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item l0a Discussion was held on a proposed resolution determining the general prevail - ing rate of per diem wages in the City of Wichita Falls. A motion was made by Councilman Thomas, and seconded by Councilman Welburn, for passage of the resolution. Councilman Harper commented on the law pertaining to this. Any governmental body is required to do this. Any projects which have federal funds in it have to use the Davis-Bacon Act. He and Sam Grove also commented on the meet- ings with the school and county officials. The only problem he has with this is that most of the electricians, iron workers, carpenters, etc. are members of the local union, so that the local union rates would be the prevailing rates in most categories. That is not what they got back, and what is shown. A list of prevailing wage rates was published for an area until about two years ago. They sent out cards, and took one vote for one card. We might want to delay acting on this until we can get a written request into the Attorney General to determine whether we want to take it by the number of people who pay, or the number who are paid. The City has done everything we know how to do on this. Moved by Councilman Harper that this be tabled for at least one more council meeting for a written opinion from the Attorney General 's office. Councilman Wilson wondered if we could pass it and modify it if we find it needs to be modified? He suggested that we go with the average. No second to the motion to table was received. Councilman Harper stated that by state law, or attorney general 's rule, we don't have to pay fringe benefits. Mr. Grove stated that it was an attorney general ' s ruling. He also stated that we use the Davis-Bacon wage rate for everything, including federal . Moved by Councilman Wilson that we adopt the average in column 3, with updated figures, until such time as we have better information. Motion seconded by Councilman Palmer. Harold White appeared, who is with the ironworkers union in Wichita Falls. He stated that AGC members have agreed that they will furnish a rate if the Council desires to adopt it. Their contract is negotiated with AGC. The wage rate for ironworkers is $15.45 per hour, including fringe benefits. The average they are talking about adopting will cut out some of these fringes. Most of their people are equipped to do commercial building, which requires more skills. They would hope that Councilman Wilson' s motion would recommend the AGC rate. 675 Item 10a, cont'd. Councilman Wilson stated that we are not trying to negotiate his labor rat e, but in the marketplace if the rate he has negotiated is less, then he will not get the same quality of person to do the job. We are not trying to say whether his rate is fair, or whether it is high or low, but to estab- lish the rate for city work. Councilman Harper noted that the Attorney General has stated to an attorney that you get that survey from the people who pay, rather than the number who get paid. Councilman Wilson's motion to establish the average in column 3, with updated figures, was carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Thomas, Wilson, and Palmer Nays: Councilmen Swift, Harper, and Welburn Moved by Councilman Thomas that the resolution be tabled. Motion seconded by Councilman Swift, and carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: Councilman Wilson Item 10b RESOLUTION NO. 33-85 RESOLUTION APPOINTING MEMBERS TO THE SESQUICENTENNIAL COORDINATING COMMITTEE AND ADOPTING A MASTER PLAN FOR CELEBRATION OF THE 1986 TEXAS SESQUICENTENNIAL IN WICHITA FALLS Moved by Councilman Thomas that Resolution No. 33-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Wilson, and carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item 10c RESOLUTION NO. 34-85 RESOLUTION AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 2509 TO PROVIDE CHARGE FOR REGISTRATION, ENTRY FEES AND/OR DONATIONS IN LIEU THEREOF COLLECTED IN PARKS. Moved by Councilman Harper that Resolution No. 34-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Thomas. Councilman Swift asked if the golf and tennis courts will be included? Mr. Hursh stated that they are separate charges. The City Attorney stated that this resolution applies to other than concessionaires, in another resolution. The motion was carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas , Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item 10d RESOLUTION NO. 35-85 A RESOLUTION RECEIVING THE FINAL REPORT OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND SCHEDULING PUBLIC HEARINGS 676 Item 10d, cont'd. Moved by Councilman Harper that Resolution No. 35-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Thomas. Councilman Harper commended the Planning Department for their work on the zoning ordinance. Councilman Thomas stated that he attended all the hearings, and it seems that a large percentage of people are wanting this ordinance to be passed, and he hopes we will see more evidence of this at the two public hearings. Mr. McKinney stated that the Planning Staff has spent a large number of hours on this. Bob Balch appeared as Chairman of the Planning Board, stating that they spent six months on it. Lay members of the committee also worked with them. He feels they have brought a tailor-made ordinance for Wichita Falls. Mayor Cook also expressed appreciation for the work done on this ordinance by many people, and commended them for the dedication and time given to the City. Councilman Thomas commented that the only expense we have had is for salaries of our people. There were no outside consultant fees. The motion was carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item lla RESOLUTION NO. 36-85 RESOLUTION ACCEPTING BIDS FOR CONCESSION OPERATIONS IN WILLIAMS PARK AND BRIDWELL PARK. Moved by Councilman Thomas that Resolution No. 36-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Harper, and carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Thomas, Harper, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: None Item llb Discussion was held on a proposal resolution awarding the contract for construction of Lake Arrowhead road repair project. A motion was made by Council- man Thomas, and seconded by Councilman Harper, for its passage. City Manager James Berzina stated that they started this project in good faith, and the Lake Arrowhead people they met with indicated that they were speaking for the Association. Mr. Berzina stated that he is more and more convinced that if we spend this $53,000 we may eat it. He believes we should have the money up front, and if we don't get the money, we don't do the roads. He suggested that we ask the contractor to hold this bid for a while. We may have to pay a fee. He further stated that they seem to think the City owns the roads, and he doesn't go along with this. Councilmen Thomas stated that we are in compliance to assess this because of health and safety, and if it goes to court we will add those incurred expenses to the lease. Councilman Palmer stated that he feels the worst situation we can get into is if the citizens of Wichita Falls have to pay for it. He now wants to wait until we get the money up front to pay for this work. He expressed his concern for the statement made by Mr. Duffy, which amounted to a veiled threat. Councilman Wilson agreed. Councilman Thomas stated that he does not want to spend a dime of money that we don't get some benefit from. He believes a court would uphold it. Councilman Palmer stated that we are looking at two or three years. i 677 Item llb, cont'd. Mayor Cook asked if the improvements are not started until July, what might the additional cost be? Mr. Bonnett stated that there would be additional deterioration, but he cannot address how much. The worst of it is over. Councilman Palmer stated that he would be satisfied if we had a commitment from the leaseholders. Mr. Berzina stated he did not think it would be binding, but it would be an indication. Mayor Cook explained that our option is either to pass or defeat this resolution. If it is defeated, we have to wait until it is brought up again. If they do not pay, the City will take back their leases. Councilman Thomas stated that we have a tremendous investment in these lots now. He hates to see us keep putting it off. If we don't do this we will not clean up the lake, raw sewer, and trash dump. Councilman Palmer states that the City of Wichita Falls taxpayers do not need to spend $50,000 for those lots out there. Moved by Councilman Palmer that this matter be tabled until the people out there give us some assurance, such as a promissary note, that they will pay these charges. Motion seconded by Councilman Wilson, and carried by the following vote. Ayes: Mayor Cook, Councilmen Swift, Wilson, Palmer, and Welburn Nays: Councilmen Thomas and Harper Jim King appeared, asking if those people out there pay taxes in Clay County, and why don't they pay for it? Councilman Wilson commented that that is a good question. He and Councilman Thomas noted that Clay County is willing to take their money, but not help them. City Attorney H.P. Hodge stated that the City Council , in the 1960' s, noted that this property would be annexed, and lots, etc. would 'be paid for by city taxes. It was annexed, but later was disannexed. (Lake Arrowhead residents requested disannexation. ) Item 12a RESOLUTION NO. 37-85 RESOLUTION ACCEPTING CONSTRUCTION OF LUCY PARK PLAY AREA BY LLOYD J. TAYLOR, III , d/b/a TAYLOR AND COMPANY. Moved by Councilman Welburn that Resolution No. 37-85 be passed. Motion seconded by Councilman Wilson, and carried by the following vote.

Norma Crane was specifically recognized for the quality of work. Councilman Thomas commended the Planning Department for their work on the zoning ordinance Councilman Harper wondered if there is any sentiment on the Council to consider not leasing any more lots on the lake? The Council desires that no additional lots be leased until something is settled on it. Councilman Thomas asked about transfers, and Mr. Hursh stated that this would not in- clude transfers. The City Manager stated that they plan to go ahead on the inspections, and close the dump, and assess on the trash. 678 Items 13b,c The City Council recessed into executive session at 11:40 A.M. , pursuant to Article 6252-17, Section 2, Paragraphs (g) and (e) , of the Revised Civil Statutes.
