Consideration and possible action to replace or to abolish the city's HARC organization --Henry Carr, Counciimember District 4 Carr explained that he thinks recent discussions have painted HARC as a problem. He said he doesn't think there is a problem with HARC, but a problem with the process under which it was set up. He thanked the members of the HARC for serving all these years. He said the real problem is with the Council. He said portions of the HARC process are failing in execution, causing owners of downtown properties to spend a lot of time and money without getting solutions to their business needs. He said Instead of a modificaton process so the investor can move on. it ends up in a stalemate with no technical appeal process to produce a satisfactory outcome. He said sometimes outside consultants come forward and offer to solve the problem. He said it needs to be simplified and understandable, with architecture and economics needing to mix together to produce a compatible result. He said the process is hurting the downtown. He said the City has invested approximately $6 million in the downtown area, so the process needs to be revised to send a clear message to all stakeholders for downtown and the tax payers. He suggested abolishing the HARC and turning over all responsibilities to the staff. He said the City Manager could delegate and staff will execute applications coming forward and report back to Council; then after six months, the City Manager should come back and possibly recommend a new advisory -only board with a new set of bylaws and new staffing (membership) of the new advisory board. Motion by Carr, second by Berryman to abolish the City Council Meeting Minutes/ Page 3 of 24 Pages HARC, turn over responsibilities to the staff, then allow the City Manager to bring back an advisory -only board for Council's consideration if that is what he recommends. Motion by Berryman to propose a friendly amendment that staff must come back with an advisory board and not make that an option. Speaker, Robert Phipps, told Council he is a business owner and has spent most of the last 17 years in old historic houses. He said he currently offices in an old stone home on Elm Street. He said that deeper pockets always win out, and he told Council that he feels HARC is fighting to preserve what makes Georgetown so special. He asked Council to protect the interests of all citizens. Speaker, Bryan Farney, told Council that he and his wife own the Makemson-Steele building and the old Gold's buildings in the downtown Square. He said there needs to be historic preservation, the appearance, and the economy. He said, however, if there is no business, you won't preserve the vitality of the downtown. He said HARC approved his reconstruction and renovations on the Square, and from that experience he has learned that there are many "small" decisions that shouldn't be made by the HARC. He said subjective decisions need to go to an elected body. He asked Council to leave the HARC in place, but change it so the applicants denied by HARC can make appeals to the Council. Speaker, Renee Hanson, with additional time from Pat Kucler, told Council she has been involved in revitalization of the downtown since 1982. She said the Downtown Guidelines and the Master Plan were recommended by Consultant, Nore Winter. She said the HARC was also a recommendation from him. She listed the recent projects that have been approved downtown and said the accusation that HARC is inhibiting development is unfounded. She said the attack going on around town directed to a volunteer commission is unwarranted; but there is always room for improvement, so she suggested a workshop, not removing or replacing them. She said the closing of the Courthouse has created a problem, but larger signs are not what is needed. She said the downtown needs more tourism during this time. She quoted the Toursim Indusry of America, saying Texas ranks third in the country in tourism. Speaker, Kyra Quenan, said she and her husband own two businesses on the Square, and the process to comply with the Downtown Guidelines is confusing and time consuming. She said with clear guidelines the issues could be handled by staff. Speaker, Rick Williamson, with additional time from Lisa Forsythe, told Council he is a new resident but is active in old town issues. He asked Council to visit otdtowners.com website. He said the allegations against HARC require proof, and nothing has been documented in public session regarding the accusations. He said, therefore, the Council is duly bound to disregard them. He said he has found that the HARC is more often lenient in their rulings than not. He said even if logical proof could be produced that existing ordinancess are killing downtown business, why would that be a reason to abolish HARC? Speaker, Karen Lee Davis, with additional time from Jim Schiller, told Council that developers are moving to the Square quietly. She said everyone hears from the more vocal dissidents, but according to staff, HARC rushes items through and gets many things accomplished, but no one hears anything about that. She said the City staff, very busy and overworked, are not the body to oversee the process. She said unlike staff, most HARC members have the care, interest, time, business savy, and autonomy to apply the Council's Guidelines quickly and objectively and with public participation. She asked Council to leave the HARC alone. Speaker, Bob Weimer, said he owns the Downtown Bistro on the Square, and is a retail member of the Economic Development Commission. He thanked Romeo's for considering Georgetown. He congratulated Judith Manriquez and Chris Damon for keeping the architectural beauty of their building. He said he applauds "Bernie and Tara" and their staff for recognizing that HARC needs to be adjusted. He said "feet on the street" will grow Georgetown and help make business successful. Speaker, Tara Riley, on behalf of Romeo's, thanked those who have met with and supported them. She said it was not their intention to get embroiled in the politics of Georgetown, and they really would just like to sell pizza and pasta and spend their marketing money on bringing people to the Square. She said they would like to have an effective sign, no blinking necessary, but they are very frustrated with the process. She noted the limited ability of the Design Guidelines to deal with the old Masonic Lodge. She said they asked for advice from the HARC and were told they could not have any advice from the HARC committee members, they were only adivsed to just keep coming back again and again, costing more time and money. She said she appreciates the Council's consideration on this matter and looks forward to a good conclusion. Speaker, Ross Hunter, with additional time from Barbara Meyer, said there is a plan in progress downtown. City Council Meeting Minutes/ Page 4 of 24 Pages He said the goal is to create a heritage tourist target on the downtown Square. He said he detects a rude overreaction in the political process. He said he salutes HARC because they have been a faithful servant to the Plan. Speaker, Jay Hailey, with additional time from Scott Stribling, told Council he is the developer of 400 Main Street, and has succesfully completed the first phase of the residential portion of his project. He said it took longer than intended, but he was pleased with the progress. He said he has experienced some delay in further commercial development in that location. He said he planned a three-story building consistent with the Development Agreement, but then experienced a lack of response from HARC for $80,000 worth of design. He said he had to spend more money for more detail to attempt to please HARC, but it became an architectural contest with no feedback from the HARC as to how he could do anything differently. He told Council he has decided not to spend another $40,000-$50,000 for more design detail on the chance it might still not be approved, so he has put the project on hold Speaker, Len Lester, told Council he has been a business owner on the Square for 10 years and has owned a building for six years. He said he is not complaining about the sign or asking to abolish the HARC; but would like to share a thought. He said he once sat on the HARC Board, and told Council there needs to be more advice and instruction given to applicants so they can be accepted when they first apply. He said the process should be more methodical and supportive. He said HARC is sending a message that we want to keep the old buildings with nothing in them. Speaker, Sherell Kidd, told Council he also owns a building on Square. He said he is Vice President and acting President of the Downtown Georgetown Association, and is speaking for himself and not for the organization. He said he was treated decently by the HARC about his sign. He said when he heard the problems from Romeo's, he downloaded the agenda, the application, and the sign. He said he doesn't want to make a judgment, but there were two staff signatures indicating approval on the sign drawing. He said if there is a legitimate reason for the sign to have been turned down, there should be a legitimate reason to appeal, not just being told to come back Speaker, Marilou Groves, told Council that abolishing HARC would remove a level of protection for the historic character of Georgetown. She said if there is no structure, the downtown will be destroyed. Speaker, Judith Manriquez, told Council she is a preservationist. She said she owns an old home, shares ownership in an old historic building on the Square, has a business on the Square. She said she absolutely supports the Downtown Guidelines. She thanked Council for considering the HARC issues. She gave Council the following suggestions: 1) HARC should not be quasi-judicial, saying as it stands now, they are not accountable to anyone in particular nor do they consider financial implications. She said they should be accountable and advisory to the Council; 2) the existing process is inefficient. She said many of the issues are administrative and staff could deal with those issues; 3) there is no need to reinvent the wheel on this process. She said there should be a process implemented that is similar to the Unified Development Code and the Planning and Zoning Commission; 4) make sure the process includes guidance and feedback without the need for the applicant to invest more money; and 5) update the Guidelines. She said Nore Winter has prepared other more comprehensive guidelines for other cities. She asked Council to consider Greenville, South Carolina, for how to addresss blade signs. She asked Council to fix the immediate problems today, those being the appeal process and the administrative issues; and make their actions timebound with a goal for which to aim as the communtiy responds. Speaker, Laura Eliel, told Council she owns Bittersweet Cafe on Main Street. She said she agrees with Manriquez, and added that the Board needs term limits, and there should be members from all walks of life on that board. She said a downtown retail store owner is needed on that board. Speaker, Joseph Kahler, told Council he thinks HARC is needed badly and should not be abolished. He said he is tired of gross generalizations about the dying of downtown Georgetown. He said Georgetown is more dynamic than in the mid 90's when he began working downtown. Speaker, David Voelter, told Council he has practised architecture in Georgetown for 27 years. He said he served on the first preservation commission that was set up when Georgetown became a Main Street City in 1982. He said he thinks the issues are subjective. He said he is not in favor of abolishing HARC, but supports those who think it needs to be looked at and reorganized. Speaker, Ellie Skross, told Council she owns Annarelia. She said she came to Georgetown six years ago because the Makemson-Steele Building was the most beautiful building she had ever seen. She said she doesn't want HARC abolished, but there need to be guidelines like other cities have. She said she City Council Meeting Minutes/ Page 5 of 24 Pages remembers Nore Winter saying that the downtown design guidelines were a "living" document that would need adjusting. She said Winter gave the city a framework that needs to be worked with. She said the HARC needs term limits and a review process. Speaker, Harold Steadman, told Council he and his wife came to Georgetown 10 years ago and he has seen great growth and change. He said he brings visitors to Old Town and Downtown. He said Downtown is "where the rubber meets the road ........ where investments are made," and is the central part of this City. He said HARC has a role to play. He said he thinks the HARC should report to City Council. He said he and his wife have already made reservations to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary at Romeo's on October 18, so he wants them to be able to open and advertise. He suggested that Council look at Granbury.org because he thinks Granbury is a "twin" to Georgetown. He said Granbury has a commission of seven members, with a minimum of four of the seven members required to be owners of historic property on the Downtown Square. He said their commission prepares rules and procedures that shall be ratified by the City Council. He urged the Council to change the HARC so the Council has the final authority. Speaker, Roy Headrick, said the motion scares him. He said planning people are responsible to the ordinances, and if they can't support themt, they shouldn't be there. He said planning people shouldn't be policy makers. Speaker, Linda Spires, told Council she is a newcomer, saying she moved here from the Historic District in Galveston, and she and her husband wanted to live in a town whose citizens valued its heritage. She said they chose Georgetown because of the historic buildings and the quality of life and said she feels HARC has done a good job of keeping Georgetown true to its roots. Speaker, Tom Nichols, told Council he disagrees with the "emotions on the floor" and asked Council not to remove the HARC. He said the Downtown Design Guidelines were created, negotiated, and approved. He asked for a rotating position on the HARC, and not defer decisions to the Council, but instead to the Zoning Board of Adjustment. Speaker, Jack Hachmeister, told Council he owns the building that houses Chupa Rosa on the Square. He said he has invested at least a half a million dollars in Georgetown. He said the Square is "a huge part of Georgetown." He said as a shop owner, if it weren't for outside income, he couldn't keep his store open. He said he feels the "set up" of HARC is as an autonomous body where there is no government to go to. He proposed that Council temporarily suspend HARC and direct staff and HARC to come up with objective and subjective guidelines and send all decisions temporarily to the Planning and Zoning Commission and then streamline the process and appeal to the Council. Carr repeated his motion to direct the City Manager to abolish the HARC, as it is known today, and turn over responsibility to staff to execute all applications and report to Council in the form of agenda items; and in no later than six months from now, the City Manager must recommend the formation of a new advisory -only board to advise the staff, with new bylaws, and new staffing (membership) of the board; and this must be approved by the City Coucnil. Snell said he appreciates the way the items have been presented and was very proud about the intelligence and civility of the speakers tongiht. He verified that HARC was established by ordinance, and the Council "can't undo it" without "undoing" the ordinance which would take two readings. So, the City Manager wouldn't be able to do this until there is another ordinance with the guidelines still in place but without the body to interpret those guidelines. Carls said, if the motion passed, the duties of HARC would be temporarily assigned to staff for the interim period of six months. Snell clarified what he thinks would be accomplished by this change. He said he thinks everyone agrees that the guidelines need to be improved. He said he doesn't think the Council is qualified or could be trained as experts to handle the items that would come forward; so he would be unwilling to take over the duties of HARC, and he doesn't think the staff should have to be pressured in that way. He ackowledged that the process and procedures need to be redone as soon as possible. Oliver said there needs to be a way that ongoing consultation can occur for applicants. He said he thinks that processes and procedures need to be done in a timely way but not by abolishing the HARC. He said he believes that the public perception is that they don't understand. Smith said he has been thinking about this for a year or more. He said he doesn't think abolishing HARC is the answer. He said he has a modest proposal to follow if the current motion fails. Berryman said the idea of abolishing is not fair, it really is a restructuring. City Council Meeting Minutes/ Page 6 of 24 Pages Vote on the motion: Denied 4-3 (Eason, Smith, Snell, and Oliver opposed) CC -3 Consideration and possible approval of a resolution to direct staff to amend section 2A.0308 of Ordinance No. 2001-48 to change the appeal process for denials from the Historic and Architectural Review Commission (HARC), enabling denials to be appealed to City Council instead of to the Board of Adjustment -- Doug Smith, Councilmember District 3 Smith explained his proposal and offered three suggestions: 1) Council needs to look at and review the guidelines; 2) applicants need to receive more advice and guidance, saying both HARC and staff should give advice); and 3) there should be a different balance of members on HARC, such as downtown business owners for balance of historic preservation and economic viabibilty. Motion by Smith, second by Sansing to direct staff to amend Sec. 2A.0308 of Ordinance 2001-48 to change the appeal process for denials from the Histroic and Architectural Review Commission (HARC) enabling denials to be appealed to the City Council instead of to the Zoning Board of Adjustment. Motion by Sansing that the HARC be advisory to Council and Council be the appellate body as well. Smith said he considered that but decided that only appeals on denials should go to the Council because if HARC approves, and it still needs to go on to Council, that would be one more step for developers. Sansing withdrew his motion and kept his second. Motion by Snell, second by Eason to amend that appeals to Council would require a majority -plus -one vote. He said that would follow the parrallel structure of Planning and Zoning, saying these are matters that receive sufficient review and seriousness by the Commission, and the Council should be very careful in overturning them. He said the majority -plus -one would shelter the Council from the passion and pressures of the moment, so he feels that would be a safety measure. Oliver agreed. Eason said the real problem is a process problem and that the guidelines and bylaws need to be reviewed and open meetings *laws and proper *parliamentary procedure need to be followed to the letter. Nelon suggested a friendly amendment to add Eason's issues. Sansing agreed that the bylaws need to be reviewed regarding the make-up of the membership of the Commission. Smith objected to changing the bylaws, but agreed they could be reviewed. Smith said it is not his intent that when a denial comes to Council a super majority is needed. He said the Council will adhere to the guidelines, so he doesn't think a super majority is needed. (*as corrected by Eason at the October 24, 2006 Council Meeting) Speaker, Ross Hunter, with additional time from Barbara Meyer, said he is not in favor of the motion, but likes the friendly amendments. He said there should be separation of powers. He said he doesn't like the decision making coming back to the Council. He said he feels the Board of Adjustment is in the position to review why a situation was denied. Speaker, Renee Hanson, said Nore Winter originally proposed that it went to HARC and ended with Court which took it out of the political process and didn't put as much burden on the Council. She recalled that the recommendation came from staff to go to the Board of Adjustment. She said now with the comments being made, she would urge to keep the majority -plus -one because it would have to be pretty serious to be appealed. Speaker, Robert Phipps, said if the majority of people on the HARC have a vested interest in the decisions, it would be like the "fox guarding the hen house." He said the job of many politicians is to be reelected and there is political pressure. He said that's why the Federal Reserve and Supreme Court are non -elected positions because they need to represent the whole population. He said the appeals must go to an independent body that can't be subject to the political winds. Speaker, Rick Williamson, with additional time from Lisa Forsythe, said he thinks the suggestions that have been made tonight are very positive. He said two weeks ago Romeo's tried to have a sign approved that was far outside the ordinance, and staff had approved that sign. He said this turn of events shows you have to have an appeals process in a dispasionate body of experts. He said he agrees there needs to be a review of the guidelines in a workshop process with thoughtful reflection and review; and then brought to the Council. He said he thinks there needs to be advice and guidance from the HARC. He noted that nothing has been said about the work of the Board of Adjustment; so let that stand. He said the sign ordinance needs to be reviewed. He said the Courthouse is a beacon that will draw people to the Square. Speaker, Joseph Kahler, stressed the super majority idea as being good, and said communication is what "brought this to a head" in the first place. He said he was at the HARC meeting. He said there needs to be a better way of communicating with the business people that will be submitting to the HARC. City Council Meeting Minutes/ Page 7 of 24 Pages Speaker, Judith Manriquez, asked that Council put a timeframe on this issue, and feels it will be harder to move forward with a super majority. Carr said it is his understanding that there are no approved bylaws for HARC. Brandenburg acknowledged that the bylaws were approved by HARC, but not approved by the City Council. He said both times the bylaws were brought to Council, the action was tabled. He said this item tonight deals with a revision to the enabling ordinance. Nelon reviewed that Snell's amendment was to add the requirement of a majority plus one of the City Council in order to overturn a decision made by the HARC. There were comments from Council. Vote on the amendment: Defeated 4-3 (Smith, Carr, Berryman and Sansing opposed) Snell said he is troubled by the appeal to City Council, and thinks historic commissions everywhere have ultimate authority and are not always popular for that reason. He said if an appeal were to come to him, he would only review the guidelines and if the guidelines were misapplied, the ruling could be overturned. He said he would vote against the motion. There were more comments from the Council. Smith was asked to restate his motion: He said, with the friendly amendment, the motion is to revisit the guidelines, look at a way whereby HARC and Council can give more advice and guidance, review the bylaws, instruct the staff to bring back a revised ordinance, and have the appeals go to the City Council. There were more comments from the Council. Vote on the motion: Approved 4-3.

He said the following services will be provided after annexation: Police and Fire Protection and Emergency Services; Solid Waste Collection; Operation and Maintenance of Water and Wastewater systems in areas not under another Water or Wastewater System; Operation and Maintenance of Streets, Roads and Street Lighting; Operation and Maintenance of Public Parks, Playgrounds, and Swimming Pools, not under State or Federal Jurisdiction; Operation and Maintenance of Municipally owned buildings, facilities and services; Library Privileges; Planning and Development Services; Building Permits and Inspections; Animal Control Services; Business Licenses and Regulations; Health and Safety Regulations; and Regulations Pertaining to Peace, Morals and Welfare. Polasek explained the item and the timeline for the annexation. He noted that this is an involuntary annexation. He listed the reasons this property is being considered for annexation as being that this property is a gateway or growth corridor; the City needs to bring the property into City Police and Fire jurisdictions; and this annexation area was identified as a priority for annexation in order to bring all property fronting SH130 from IH35 to CR104 into the city limits. He explained the service plan. The Public Hearing was opened at 9:14 p.m. Speaker, Larry Kokel, told Council he and his partner, Dale Illig, had been against annexation but he now favors annexation after studying the utility plan today. He expressed concern that the utility plan tied in with annexation contains water and wastewater lines that are really a waste of the City's money. He said he doesn't see the Future Land Use Plan or density being anything close to what will actually happen. He said the City needs to meet with the property owners to determine what will go on that property. An unknown woman asked how long her property could remain zoned as AG, and was told her property could remain AG as long as the property remains in AG action. She was told the property will come into the City at its existing use and can not be forced to change uses. She wanted to know any restrictions.

He said the roads are in pretty poor shape, some are still gravel. He said currently there are no fire plugs, and asked If water lines would be put in if annexed, and if they would be 8" water lines. He said he doesn't want to be annexed. Nelon suggested he give his contact information to the Planning staff. Speaker, Paula Faris, said she and her husband built outside of the City because they didnt' want to be in the City. She said she thinks the annexation of their area is for access to the new football stadium. She said it should have been built at the site of the new school and would have saved the school district $700,000. She said she is on septic, has no fire plug, and the streets are failing apart. She asked why she is being annexed. Nelon suggested she give her contact information to the Planning staff so she can find out about her issues. Speaker, Pat Reynolds, said most of her concerns have already been addressed. She said she did not receive the letter from the City. She said her main concern is the traffic that will have access to the football stadium. She said they were told by GISD that there would be no access. Speaker, Royce Robinson, gave Council a printed copy of his talk. He said he has Jonah Water, Clawson Disposal, and septic. He said, as an example of why he doesn't want to be annexed, he bought a house in Georgetown, and although still vacant, he is being charged approximately $73 per month for utilities and garbage, and he wonders what he will have to pay once someone is living there. Sansing said he should call the City Utility Department regarding his vacant property. Robinson said the Utility Office told him he would have to pay the fee for 90 days before they would deal with him. Briggs noted that there are a few remnant areas that still have Jonah Water according to old regulations. He said that will convert over to Georgetown once the property is annexed, and Robinson would pay $25.50 to the City for 4,000 gallons of water. He said after annexation, the resident has two years to change over to the City provider for solid waste . He said, regarding septic, it could remain functioning if it currently exists, and would eventually be upgraded in a Captial Improvement Plan. He said the roads would be included in the City Transportaiton Plan. He said the fire hydrants will be added in the CIP Plan. He said the property is currently served by Pedernales Electric Cooperative, and if they want to change, they can initiate a request, because that is a dually -certificated area. He suggested that the home on Dunman could be adjusted if it is vacant. The Public Hearing was closed at 9:38 p.m. 4.

She also reminded Council that she and her husband were mandated by the City Council to build an asphalt road along 2000 feet of their private land on Berry Lane. She asked that the City annex the road or assume maintenance of the road. She said it cost $120,000 to build the road and takes $5000 a year to mainitain. She noted that her neighbors use the road but only two neighbors helped to pay the maintenance costs. She said school buses and garbage trucks also use the privately -maintained road.

She said construction traffic and the highway constructors for SH130 use their private road. Briggs said Rock Dove Lane is a public street that goes to the treatment plant and the City will look into that. He said the CCN's are defined by TCEQ, and the City can't just take it over because of annexation unless the City receives permission from Jonah. He said the City is currently waiting to hear back from Jonah. He said they have high fluoride content in their water that causes the motteling of teeth and hardening of the tooth enamel, and the TCEQ forces them to send out the notice to let people know that. Briggs said Jonah has not been forced to make any changes. He said for the last several months Jonah has been buying water from the City because their well went dry. He said the City has proposed to Jonah to take over the areas west of SH130. Speaker, Randi Fuller, told Council she has a problem with the City giving the Meadows of Georgetown permission to use Rock Dove Lane. She said she has received mixed information about who the road belongs to. She said there is a sign at the end of the street that calls their area the Dove Springs Water Treatment Plant.
