Alderman Shearman asked why we are buying light posts? The City Manager
explained that this is our normal procedure. We maintain them after the lights
are installed. It is cheaper for us to maintain and operate them than Texas Electric.
Alderman Shearman felt this expense should be incurred by Texas Electric, rather than
the City.
Jack Griffin, Acting Director of Traffic, stated that our monthly bill drops
after conversion of these facilities. Alderman Shearman commented that we are
saving on our light bill , but buying light posts for $4080. Jack Griffin stated

requested.
Motion seconded by Alderman Wilson, and carried unanimously.

Item 9a
A public hearing was opened on the 1982 capital improvements street construction
program.
Mrs. Ellard, 1032 Covington, stated that if curb and gutter is placed in there
she does not see how it will help anything except get the water down there quicker.
The bar ditch in front of her house has not been cleaned out in seven years.
Ernest Lillard, Director of Public Works, stated that there is nothing to affect
the design of it except to improve it.
Mayor Cook asked who is normally responsible for cleaning the drainage ditches?
Ernest Lillard stated that it is impossible to clean out the bar ditches. This is
one of the old county road sites that was built to a ten-year standard. Drainage is
almost impossible to maintain. Construction of this street was approved by a bond
program.
Mrs. Ellard asked how much of this water is going under the Iowa Park Road with
a 16 x 60 inch culvert? She stated that the water does not run to Plum Creek because
the ditch is full .
Ernest Lillard stated that the Iowa Park Road is the responsibility of the State,
and if there is a problem then they will be talking to them. They have no indication
that there is a problem.
side.Mrs. Ellard stated that there is no need to have a Holliday Creek on the North
Frank Johnson, 1506 City View, stated that he feels that twice as much water
will be put into this area as is already there. He stated that on May 12 water was
so high that he could not drive across the irrigation ditch. He stated that curb
and gutter and sidewalks will only increase the speed of water down the hill .
Ernest Lillard stated that included in City View Lane is a provision for
thousands of dollars in drainage improvements. Mr. Johnson stated that he does not
see how putting all of this water in the same area will improve the situation.
Mayor Cook asked if flooding is localized because of the bar ditches, then will
it not be affected by the drainage improvements? Mr. Johnson stated that if there
are no plans to improve the Iowa Park Road, then he does not see how this will help.
He is opposed to sidewalks on the West side of City View Lane, and parts of the East
side.
483
Item 9a, cont'd.
Alderman Shearman asked how much it will cost for sidewalks on his property?
Mr. Johnson stated that his assessment is $6500. The City Manager noted that his
sidewalk assessment is $3500. Mr. Johnson stated that he has not received notice
of assessment from anyone. He stated that he has an easement with stakes on it.
Alderman Shearman asked if he had been paid for this easement? Mr. Johnson stated
that he had not. The City Manager stated that this property already has a public
easement on it. Mr. Johnson agreed that it probably does have a public easement.
Ernest Lillard stated that we had adequate right-of-way out there, and we did not
need any additional right-of-way. We have 60 feet of right-of-way.
Mr. Johnson stated that there is only one or two people here today from City
View. There were several at the last meeting. He stated that he brought a letter
down here yesterday signed by the property owners. Mayor Cook held up his letter.
Mr. Johnson stated that they have not been given a good reason why they need
sidewalks.
Mayor Cook stated that they listened to them at the last meeting, and their
concerns of sidewalks. There are pasture lands, and also some areas which have
justification for sidewalks. They are trying to determine what would be a
satisfactory arrangement for the property owners so there would be safety for the
children going to City View School
Mr. Johnson stated that Mr. Mahan needs a sidewalk by the school , but the
children are taken off the bus right into the school .
Ernest Lillard stated that Crescent Street is not scheduled for sidewalks.
Mr. Johnson stated there is a band hall and fieldhouse on Crescent and kids run
down the middle of that street. Mr. Lillard stated that Nunn Street is not on the
paving program, and this is the street which runs into City View Lane. The part
Mr. Johnson is talking about is not Crescent Street. Mr. Lillard explained that
Nunn Street is not included because it is not a collector or an arterial street.
Mayor Cook noted that we have seven options from which to choose in this
program. It seems that we could require sidewalks as long as 50 percent development
is completed. This is proposed as an eighth option. He stated that sidewalks could
possibly be omitted from the irrigation canal to the Northwest Freeway until it is
50 percent developed. We could require sidewalks on the Ease side to the irrigation
canal , and on the West side to the paving equipment area.
Alderman Wilson noted that the cost of sidewalks will have escalated if it is
put off. If it is assessed now, and they choose not to pay it, the cost to the
property owner will probably be the same.
Alderman Shearman stated that he would hate to impose the sidewalk burden on
the people today because of present conditions. If the City of Wichita Falls wants
it, they should pay for it. Mayor Cook stated that he could appreciate his position,
but he could also see the dangerous precedent we would be setting. We might end up
paying for all of them.
A motion was made by Alderman Shearman to adopt the ordinance with Option
Number 7, requiring no sidewalks. The motion did not receive a second.

Motion seconded by Alderman Morris.
485
Item 10c, cont'd.
Alderman Wilson questioned the variance procedure described on page 10 of the
ordinance. He was particularly concerned about oil well operations. He asked if
there is a provision for temporary structures except going to the FAA? He stated
that he has no problem with that kind of requirement for a permanent structure.
It might take a year to get cleared for a temporary structure.
Roger McKinney, Director of Planning, explained the FAA regulations on
variances. He stated that they have to go to the FAA right now if they want to go
to a particular height structure. He also asked what is temporary--six months?
Alderman Wilson stated that we can define temporary as 30-45 days , or whatever, but
he feels their evidence may have to be very strong to get that variance. He would
think that the people we appoint to this board would be competent to make this
determination. It seems that we are adding a bureaucracy that is not needed.
Roger McKinney stated that in the past there has not been an unusual delay on
these structures. They have been going to the FAA anyway. Alderman Wilson stated
that the difference is that we are assuming the enforcement. Mr. McKinney stated
that an aeronautical study is made before a license is issued by the FAA.
Alderman Hampton stated that he shares this concern, but he does not think
we have the problem. If it becomes a problem, they would not put up an antenna
overnight. They need to go to someone who has the authority to break that airspace,
but he does not think we will have that problem. We do not have that kind of
height. He also asked about 75 feet in height. What is required right now if
they wanted to move a machine in there? Mr. McKinney stated that they would have
to get an aeronautical study.
Alderman Shearman asked about Section 14 on compensation. When compensation
is due a landowner do we have the money budgeted so that we could pay the people?
City Manager Stuart Bach stated that we do not. It would have to be appropriated
by the Council . The City's budget this year is almost $40 million.
Alderman Shearman made a statement concerning the safety of Sheppard Air Force
Base. The federal government has bought the land which they need. This ordinance
could prove to be a costly financial disaster for the City of Wichita Falls. If the
citizens of Wichita Falls don't want zoning, why should we inflict it on our county
neighbors? They do not want it either. He stated that he will vote against it
because it will be a financial burden on every Wichita Falls taxpayer.
Roger Crampton, Attorney, appeared in regard to Section 12. He stated that
there is one legal matter in which they should inquire closely. He does not see any
standards set for the payment of compensation. It does not tell which landowners
will be compensated, and which will not be compensated. It provides for a Board of
Adjustments, and then a review back to the Council . He asked if you are going to
compensate people because of noise, flying over the land, and scaring cows? What
is the basis on which you will compensate people? This ordinance sets forth no
standards that you can look at and apply. This raises a question about the legality
of the procedure, which will not stand up in the appelate courts.
Mr. Crampton stated that the major objection is that you are putting a cap of
544 feet over the downtown business district. No reasonable promoter is going to
submit to the mercies of the Director of Planning over the downtown district.
Mr. Crampton mentioned a building with this height in Amarillo.
Mayor Cook asked Mr. Crampton what building in Amarillo he was referring to?
Mr. Crampton stated a bank building. Mayor Cook informed Mr. Crampton that the
bank building in Amarillo is 26 stories high, and we are talking about heights of
more than 50 stories in the downtown area. Mayor Cook stated that he is not aware
of any buildings even in Dallas which are more than 50 stories high.
Mr. Crampton stated that the other objection he has to this ordinance is that
you have not joined the County in this because the land is going to be out in the
county. The State Statute provides that the County can also be a part of it. This
will be an ordinance that will cause constant litigation. This type of ordinance
is not needed to accomplish the purposes of safety.
City Attorney H. P. Hodge referred to Mr. Crampton's comments concerning planes
flying overhead and scaring cattle. The answer is "No". If the City Council passes
this ordinance it will not change the way the planes now fly. They will continue
just the way they have been. The only affect the ordinance will have is that
somebody might take the position that before the ordinance they could build something
486
Item 10c, cont'd.
that they can't build now. The ordinance will not cause planes to fly lower, more
noise, or scare the cattle. It will not change the operation of Sheppard.
Alderman Shearman asked how much does he think this will cost us? Mr. Hodge
stated that he thought the Emmert's were paid about $23,000, or $86.00 per acre,
several years ago. Mr. Hodge stated that the ones have already been paid where the
burden is heaviest because of the operation.
Joe Shaddock, Attorney, appeared for his clients, Al Gwinn and Mr. and Mrs.
D. B. Clark. He stated that he sees no reason for the City to take responsibility
for this operation. The City already controls what buildings are put out there.
When there is no necessity for this it does not seem reasonable to go in there
where there is nothing but pasture. Sheppard went in there with engineers, plans,
and studies to consider this, and they purchased air easements necessary in their
informed opinion to operate this base. There is no necessity in reason, or no
technical necessity, and he feels they are going into a very expensive endeavor.
He suggested that the Council might want to table this motion and consider an
amendment which might include Kickapoo Airport in the ordinance. Sheppard Air Force
Base has already paid for these easements.
Preston Giles stated that they have someone at this time preparing to call a
referendum on this matter. He stated that this second crape myrtle will cost the
City a lot more money.

Action Corporation for neighborhood action group operations.
RESOLUTION NO. 189-82
RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A
CONTRACT WITH THE COMMUNITY ACTION CORPORATION CONCERNING NEIGHBORHOOD
ACTION GROUPS.
THAT:BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN OF THE CITY OF WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS,

of Wichita Falls and the Community Action Corporation of Wichita Falls and North
Texas Area, concerning the City's funding support of neighborhood action groups,

the City of Wichita Falls.
Moved by Alderman Hampton that Resolution No. 189-82 be passed.
Motion seconded by Alderman Boston.
Mayor Cook asked if this has been followed in the attached exhibits? The City
Manager stated that it has been. Mayor Cook noted that we do not have any information
on how many people are participating. Mr. Bach stated that we receive this
information in quarterly reports from CAC.

Item 12
It was recommended that the bid for gas chromatographic equipment for the
Health Department be awarded to Tracor Instruments, Inc. , Austin, in the amount
of $12,915.
Moved by Alderman Shearman that the bid be awarded, as recommended.
Motion seconded by Alderman Russell .
Mayor Cook asked if we have calculated the costs for going to their plant for
training? Dr. Benson stated that they will have to go to their location for training,
but that it will not cost us anything.
The motion was carried unanimously.

Item 12b
Discussion was held on reconsideration of the bid awarded for a rubber-tired
front end loader for the Transfer Station.
City Manager Stuart Bach stated that in one area the awarded bid did not meet
specifications, but it was not significant. He suggested that they might want to
consider awarding the bid for the other Case equipment. It is on the lot at Case,
491
Item 12b, cont' d.
and that is why it is cheaper.
Mayor Cook asked if we can legally reconsider awarding the bid because none of
them actually met the specifications? City Attorney H. P. Hodge stated that the
City Council does not have to apply the specifications absolutely to the letter.
They have wide discretion in awarding bids. In order to meet competition, everyone
has to be bidding on the same thing. In this case where one piece of equipment
does not meet specifications in cubic inch displacement of the engine, it does meet
the horsepower specifications. Mr. Lillard stated to Mr. Hodge that this is an
immaterial specification where a variance could be granted.
Alderman Wilson stated that we do not want to use double standards. This is
one area where we have rejected bids on cubic inch displacement. He requested that
the City Manager institute procedures to prevent this from happening again.
Moved by Alderman Hampton that we follow the recommendations of the staff, and
purchase the Case W14H rubber-tired front end loader in the amount of $41 ,928.38,
as recommended.
Motion seconded by Alderman Russell , and carried unanimously. (Alderman
Shearman was out of the room. )
