Item IOc
Elvin Dudley, 2415 Merrimac, represented the Wichita Falls Board of Realtors.
He stated that they would like to come out on a more positive note, and ask the
City Council to extend the ordinances concerning deed restrictions. They also
would like the Council to extend the ordinances on building permits so that the
Inspection Department can check to see that it is going to a residential instead
of a commercial piece of property. He also requrested that the Council place
some kind of fine in the ordinance for those who deceive the Building Inspection
Department by telling them they are going to put a home on a piece of property
when in fact they place a business there. He stated that they plan to try to
come up with a solution to the zoning ordinance which will not be so restrictive,
but which will help Wichita Falls grow. They are not against progress, but
restrictive progress . He named members of a committee which he has appointed to
study this matter.
J. B. Featherston, 3605 Glenwood, stated that he is chairman of a group of
realtors, which they hope to expand to other people with expertise. They are not
pro or con zoning. They are for Wichita Falls. They want to put together a
partnership with all kinds of interests and specialization. They will try to
come up with a comprehensive package which would help the whole city. Their
committee would be willing to work with the Planning Department and the Council
on putting together the right kind of program. They do not have a time frame,
but they intend to start now, and work until they have the right plan.
Aldermen Thomas and Russell supported his concept.
Charles Harper, 2501 Amherst, represented the petitioners who put together
the zoning ordinance. He stated that we must protect our property. There are
some people who are beginning to build since the ordinance was defeated last week.
They request that the Commission be re-created, and put a time frame on it so
that we can continue with this work. They do not feel they had a fair chance
in the election. They did not ask the Council to call an election. He stated
that the paper which came out just before the election is not truthful , and
that that group also broke the election code.
State law requires that commissions for zoning and land use controls be
appointed by the City. They urged the Council to create this commission again.
Alderman Thomas inquired how we can maintain the authority of our ordinances
where a permit is taken out for a residence and used for a business instead? City
Attorney H. P. Hodge, Jr. explained that if deed restrictions say it will be used
for residential purposes , it is the use of the building, and not the design.
Alderman Thomas asked what recourse we have if a person builds a business
instead of a residence? The City Manager stated that a building permit has no
connotations with deed restrictions , but is for compliance with the building
code. City Attorney H. P. Hodge, Jr. explained that there is not much we can do
until a commercial establishment is made out of a residence. He stated that we
can file suit to enjoin him to prevent him from carrying on the business in that
particular place.
Alderman Thomas stated that he would support continuation of deed restrictions.
If we come down as hard as we know how, then the violations will stop.
Alderman Traywick stated that we still face the dilema in the recovery
process, and it is incumbent on us to maintain the continuity of these ordinances.

A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO FILE AN APPLICATION FOR
SECTION 8 - HOUSING ASSISTANCE PAYMENTS PROGRAM FOR EXISTING HOUSING
UNDER TITLE II OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974
(PUBLIC LAW 93-383)
WHEREAS, the City of Wichita Falls currently has an approved Section 8

WHEREAS, over 98% of the 207 authorized units are under lease; and
WHEREAS, over 200 qualified families are on the waiting list; and

Mayor Hill stated that what both Mr. Featherston and Mr. Harper have said
will be taken into consideration.

Item 12b
Discussion was held on acquiring a landfill site.
The City Manager stated that we are creating 250 to 400 tons of garbage per
day. The primary means of disposing of the problems we are creating is a sanitary
landfill . The present landfill has only about six months of life. The permitting
process for the property can be completed in 90 days. It will take three to four
months to prepare the site.
Ernest Lillard, Director of Public Works, explained that the State Department
of Health is the regulatory agency in Texas for landfill sites. They investigated
and came up with four possible sites. Of those four sites, the one selected today
has been the most advantageous of all . It meets all requirements of the State
Health Department, and will be the most economical to operate. An application
for a permit will be made, and public hearings held sometime probably in late May
or early June. We can expect a decision by that group by August. The site will
be easily developed. It is in close proximity to the City's operational base,
cutting down the cost of the Sanitation fleet. The site plan becomes a part of
the permitting process and public hearings. The site can be operated in a manner
that will not be detrimental to that area. It could be a model site. It was
selected for those characteristics which make it an ideal site. It will not
pose a threat to the neighborhood. The soil is suitable, and it drains well ,
and it can be controlled. It has the topographic features from top to bottom
to fill up the area and control the runoff as the site is filled. The Health
Department has termed it an ideal site in their preliminary investigations.
Mr. Lillard further stated that when they started talking to consulting
engineers , they gave them certain constraints. They wanted a site within ten
miles of Wichita Falls for economical reasons. They need 300 acres because it
takes that much land to operate the City of Wichita Falls for a 20-year period.
A site that would meet the technical requirements of the Health Department is
also necessary. This particular site does meet all those requirements. The
City Manager stated that for every additional mile from the center of town,
you can look at about one dollar additional per mile per ton for transportation
costs for solid waste.
Ernest Lillard stated that Site No. 1 is adjacent to the present landfill
on River Road. Development costs become unreal at $7.32 per ton. Site No. 2,
which is the recommended site, has a thirteen cents per ton development cost.
Site No. 3 is located 18 miles west of town, or 122 miles on past the recommended
site. Development cost for this site is $3.90 per ton. This site would be in
the flood plain of the Wichita River, and it would be necessary to have some
levy work done. Site No. 4 is located between Wichita Falls and Burkburnett.
There is not 300 acres available, and the site is covered with oil wells. Develop-
ment cost for this site is $5.71 per ton. Some other sites had similar character-
istics to the one selected, but they were not large enough to make it worthwhile.
Odor, vermin, and trash dropping off the trucks was mentioned. Ernest Lillard
stated that odor will be negligible because of the standards with which they are
required to operate. At the end of each day the site will be covered with six
inches of soil , and it may be covered in two to six hours. Under those conditions
there are no places for vermin to feed and habitate. There will , however, be
seagulls present. The nearest house is located between one-third and one-half
mile. The site is 1200 feet back from the Seymour Highway. You have to cross
the road to get to it. A substantial amount of dirt will be provided to cover,
and should a fire occur there it can be put out in about two hours.
Tom Carter appeared, representing the people who live in that proposed site
location. Their position on the proposed site, as residential owners, is not to
put the landfill in anybody's back yard, and not in a residential area. The
Southwest part of Wichita Falls is growing that way.
Patsy Payne Lee, 809 Bayou River Drive, Houston, Texas, stated that her
family owns 70 acres in the proposed site. She read a report from Jerry J. Daigle,
Soil Scientist with the United State Department of Agriculture in Vernon.
Tom Carter stated that they had a neighborhood meeting last night, composed
of about 500 people . He mentioned investments in their homes, and trash blowing
off trucks on the way to the dump. The value of their houses would go down, and
the tax base would suffer.
8
Item 12b, cont'd.
Richard Allmon, 4408 Ward, stated that a year ago he sat on a citizens'
committee dealing with sewer service. A landfill was also mentioned, but no site
was given at that time.
Ernest Lillard noted that for a period of time they did not look at this
location, but they looked at others, and did not find a site that was acceptable.
Dale Emberton, 6756 Southwest Parkway, stated that he is 2500 feet from that
location. His profession is real estate, and this dump will lower the property
several thousand dollars. The people out there will not be able to sell their
properties. There must be some other place to put it.
Kay Walley stated that she lives in the Ward Addition. She questioned whether
-
the new landfill would be maintained the same way as the old dump? Ernest Lillard
stated that it will not be anything like it at all . She mentioned uncovered trash
in the present dump.
Teresa Reynolds, 6744 Southwest Parkway, asked why we cannot build an incinerator
and not have a dump in anyone's yard? The City Manager stated that the cost is much
more to develop, and also for continuing operation. It is a much more costly
operation. Ernest Lillard stated that it is $10.00 per ton for incineration, as
compared to $3.50 per ton for a landfill . There is an eight to ten million dollars
initial cost just for the plant. Ernest Lillard stated that all city vehicles are
covered, but there may be trash blowing off privately operated vehicles.
Cindy Burns Arizola stated that she lives on Wranglers Retreat. She has a
respitory ailment, and moved out there for their health. If their land is close
to the city dump, the pollution from the dump will kill all the blossoms from the
100 trees she put out. She stated that drainage would also come across her land.
Michael Mauldin, 23 Oxley Drive, asked why we must insist on a 300 acre tract
or a 20-year site. He feels there must be some other evaluations before they put
the dump out there.
Patsy Payne Lee stated that she feels Mr. Daigle would be available to the
Council if they wanted to talk to him. Ernest Lillard stated that many of the
items in Mr. Daigle' s letter are of such general concerns that you will find some
of these same concerns in their report. All of the items he has referred to have
been addressed in the application to the State Health Department. The State Health
Department will not issue a permit unless these tests can be met.
Richard Allmon stated that we are looking at costs to operate. He feels the
dollars we would be saving are nothing comparable to the millions of dollars in
loss of property by having it out there.
Mayor Hill assured the group that the Council is not trying to put something
on them. They may be forced to locate the landfill in that area, but they are
very concerned, and will do whatever they can. If they can't do anything, they
hope they will appreciate their position on it.
Alderman Thomas noted that Mr. Allmon has a vital thought in weighing the
cost against property taxes. He stated that he is going to have to evaluate the
cost vs human values. Probably if they went to other landfills they would find
that many of the problems they fear do not exist.
Ernest Lillard stated that if the Council would be willing to go for less than
20 years he would be glad to call the consultants back to see if there is anything
available. Alderman Traywick expressed concern that the present landfill site
only has six months left.
City Manager Gerald Fox stated that we are selling 20-year bonds for this
landfill . We are creating our own problems. No matter where a site is found, some-
one will live next door to that site. Someone will be affected by it, and they
will be in here, also. He stated that they have to present their best judgment to
the Council to handle it in the most economical , safest, and fair manner.
Alderman Hampton stated that there is one and one-half million dollars difference
in cost to the City between the sites west of town. The difference in the site 12
miles west of town and the one under disscussion is 45 million dollars over a 20-year
time period.
9
Item 12b, cont'd.
Mrs. Marshall McMurray, 4529 Jennings , stated they moved to that area in
1961 . At that time there were ten houses there. If the growth continues in the
next twenty years , the dump will be in the middle of the city. She requested
that the Council consider it not just from the money side, but from the health
viewpoint, also.
Faye Bridges, 6907 Seymour Highway, complained they they would not be able
to sell their property if the dump is located in that area.
Alderman Traywick mentioned proposed real estate values in Allendale Heights.
Ruth James, 6614 Southwest Parkway, noted that a lot of money is spent on
parks. She asked why we can't use that money, and get the garbage out of town.
John Hirschi , 2009 Speedway, stated that treating the symptoms will not
solve the problem. We are creating the garbage. He noted that the newspaper
campaign is a step in the right direction. He would like to see composting explored,
and the tonage reduced. It will not help to transfer it another five to ten miles
from town.
Alderman Thomas stated that the Council has to consider every single facet
of a question. He suggested a work session in which they would invite Mr. Daigle
and our own experts to attend. We may come back to the same site, but he would
like to be better informed.
Moved by Alderman Thomas that we pass over this question at this time.
Motion seconded by Alderman Hampton.
Don Jennings, 6747 Southwest Parkway, stated that he has lived out there
ten years. Taxes have almost doubled. If this goes in, he wondered what would
happen to their property for taxation purposes? Mayor Hill noted that property
is valued by the sales in the area.
Nancy Hillery, 6656 Southwest Parkway, stated that if you divide the 45
million dollars over a 20-year period, it would cost $22.00 per year, and she
would be willing to pay it. Mayor Hill thought there was something wrong with
those figures.
The motion was carried unanimously.
The Board of Aldermen recessed from 11 :10 to 11 :25 A.M.

Discussion was held on authorizing amendments to APCOA airport parking lease.
A motion was made for passage of the resolution, but no second was received.
Alderman Smith stated that he would like to see some free parking at the airport
at the end of this ten-year lease. Alderman Hampton agreed.
City Manager Gerald Fox stated that this revenue supports the airport operation.
Based on the contract, unless new rates are approved, the City will receive no
revenue from now until the end of the contract on October 30, 1980. Alderman Thomas
stated that he sees no difference in charging a fee at the airport than charging
for playing golf or tennis.
Tom Fisk, Omaha, Nebraska, appeared for APCOA. He stated that their rent has
gone up each year, along with other costs. Their lease agreement provides that
rate changes can be made. He feels there is a valid reason to stay here until the
end of their contract. At that time they could negotiate new rates. They are
grossing $40,000 a year. Their operating costs are $50,000 to $55,000 per year.
