Barry told Council that their clear direction would be necessary. Wood suggested that each Councilmember appoint a constituent to the committee so that each district in the City would be represented. Davis suggested that a combination of the district representatives as well as representatives from various organizations should be City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 1 of 16 Pages involved in the overall outcome. Vincent asked staff to obtain input on how other communities have handled this type of issue. Hoyt asked former Councilmember Jane Voltz to speak to the Council on her experience on the previous committee and asked her advice on how to proceed. Voltz suggested that the Council get community input and determine their values and goals for Georgetown. Former Councilmember Doris Curl advised that the Council needs to have a good education on preservation ideals, and that many of the people who moved to Georgetown did so due to the historic restoration of the downtown. Former Committee Member Roy Headrick stated that adequate direction from the previous Council was not evident at the end of the process. Former Committee Member Bill Harris said the process was flawed and too burdensome. He said the plan should be derived from the community and should reflect their desires. Burson suggested keeping the committee to as few people as possible to keep it manageable. He said the City should be obligated to participate in infrastructure improvements. He also suggested expanding the historic district. It was generally agreed that a consultant should be brought in to facilitate the process. Barry suggested bringing an outline of preliminary steps back to Council in a future workshop. Tonn pointed out that there is a need to get it done quickly, but the issue is one that can't be rushed. B Discussion of options for the Shotgun House located behind the Georgetown Library -- Murray Blackman and Shelley Davis Davis gave information about the term, "shotgun" house, and gave a brief history of the activities involved with the shotgun house next to the Library, and listed various options for the use of the house. He told the group that he would prefer to see that the house be used as a black heritage museum that could be tied into the tourism program. He also brought up some of the problems involved with renovating the structure, such as funding. He asked that Council appoint a committee to work out the details. Blackman distributed copies of a survey done in the 1980's regarding the house. Wood suggested having the Citizens Memorial Association (CMA) take the lead in the use for the building. Members of the CMA and Librarian Sheila Henderson gave their opinions on the building's value. It was generally agreed that a committee would be appointed to determine the way to handle the process. C Answer questions on Statutory Consent Agenda Items listed specifically below under the Regular Session that will begin no sooner than 7:00 p.m. (For questions only, no action to be taken until Regular Session) This item was not handled due to time constraints.

William P. Mullock, 3021 Addie Lane, spoke to Council again about his water bill. Burson asked Hart to explain the charges, but Mullock wasn't interested in hearing the explanation.

Public Hearing J A Public Hearing concerning the Texas Community Development Program to discuss the potential to file an application for grant funds -- Hartley Sappington Sappington explained that the purpose of the hearing was for the City to receive input regarding the use of funds to be derived from the application.

Kay Bailey Hutchison that the ISTEA Grant had been reinstated and funding amounts have increased. Morrow noted that the City would be applying. Hoyt asked about 9-1-1 call boxes. Morrow said they cost about $4,000 each, and will be considered in the upcoming budget.

City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 4 of 16 Pages U Consideration of a Revised Preliminary Plat of 39.31 acres in the Leroy B.

Motion by Tonn, second by Vincent to approve the Consent Agenda in its entirety including the elimination of the word "detached" from Item U and the inclusion of a note on the plat for Item T. Approved 7-0. Legislative Regular Agenda The following item was taken out of order by the Mayor. FF Consideration of a Final Plat of an 8.029 acre tract in the Antonio Flores Survey, to be known as a Planned Unit Development of Katy Crossing, Section Three -A, .located east of Claris Lane -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Kingma explained that the applicant proposes 42 individual lots and will have met all of the requirements for park land. She noted that Community Owned Utilities has carefully reviewed the construction plans to determine the drainage issues. It was generally agreed that the plans exceed the requirements. She noted that staff and P & Z recommend approval. Hoyt sought information that the developer is dealing with those people who might be adversely effected by the drainage. Bain noted having received letters from property owners and asked Kingma if she were aware of their comments. Kingma explained that by State guidelines, because the developer met all of the requirements of the City ordinance, there was no other option but to approve, saying that perhaps the ordinance needs to be strengthened. Developer Gavurnik assured Council that he would continue to work with the effected property owners. Motion by Hoyt, second by Vincent to approve. Approved 7-0. V Second Reading of an ordinance providing for the annexation into the City of approximately 128 acres in the David Wright Survey, locally known as Serenada East Subdivision - Units 1, 47 5, portions of Units 2 and 3 and surrounding areas -- Clyde von Rosenberg and Ed Barry von Rosenberg read the ordinance. Motion by Vincent, second by Burson to approve Ordinance No. 97-18. Approved 7-0. City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25. 1997 Page 5 of 16 Pages W Second Reading of an ordinance amending the City's Single -Member District Plan to include properties that have been annexed since the May 4, 1996 General Election, and proposed to be annexed prior to the May 3, 1997 General Election -- Marianne Banks Hart read the caption on second reading. Vincent asked for clarification of the new boundaries and there was discussion about publishing the revised district map in the Williamson County Sun. Motion by Tonn, second by Davis to approve Ordinance No. 97-19. Approved 7-0. X First Reading of an ordinance to rezone a 1.81 acre tract in the Nicholas Porter Survey from RS, Residential Single Family to RM -1, Multifamily, or any more restrictive district, located on Janis Drive -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Bain abstained. Kingma explained that this item was back before the Council after having been sent back to the Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) for a public hearing. She said that P & Z recommends denial to RM -1, therefore 3/4 (six members) of the Council must vote in favor in order to override the opinion of the P & Z. Kingma read the caption only on first reading, after having satisfied the requirements of the City Charter. Grace McLaughlin, 1715 Dawn Drive, reminded Council that she is very much opposed to the proposed development which would be directly across the street from her home. Dale Shuffield, 102 W. Janis, told Council that he and his neighbors are concerned that the occupants of duplexes or apartments will not care about the neighborhood, and asked the Council to oppose the proposed development. Steve Senior, 1716 Westwood Lane, said his property is directly adjacent to the proposed development. He stated that he and his family had chosen the neighborhood three years ago because of its character. He asked Council to concur with the Planning and Zoning Commission vote to deny the proposed zoning change. Michael Cornett, 1715 Westwood Lane, told Council that his home is directly adjacent to the proposed development and he is concerned about the increase in traffic due to the proposed loop to Northwest Boulevard and that he feels that duplexes or triplexes would increase the number of vehicles in the area. John Warden, representing the developer, told Council that the proposed use would be even less density than allowed by the Century Plan. He suggested that the vehicle traffic from the duplexes would equal what would occur if the area were developed into 12 single-family lots. He noted that the site is bounded on two sides by apartments and Citv Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 6 of 16 Pages four-plexes, which would create a greater disparity if single-family homes were built on the site. He requested Council approval. Motion by Arroyos to approve the zoning. Arroyos' motion died for lack of a second. Davis said although he is an advocate for affordable housing, but he doesn't think it would be appropriate to put this density in the already established neighborhood Motion for denial by Davis, second by Vincent. Arroyos said in the spirit of teamwork he would be willing to vote to deny. Approved 6-0. Y First Reading of an ordinance to rezone 5.38 acres, including a 0.43 acre tract out of an unnumbered lot in the Nolen Addition, an addition out of Outlot 10, Division B of the City of Georgetown, and a 4.95 acre tract out of Outlot 8, Division B of the City of Georgetown, from RS, Residential Single Family to RP, Residential Planned, or any more restrictive district, located on East 19th Street and Vine Street -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Kingma said the proposed development would be 16 residential lots and dedication of 2.5 acres of parkland. She said that zoning of RP requires approved land uses which allow the driveways to be shared, and the garages to be placed in the rear of the property to conserve space. She said the applicant has removed the proposal for garage apartments. She advised that a 314 vote would be required to approve because of the number of property owners that have submitted written opposition. Kingma read the caption only on first reading after having satisfied the requirements of the City Charter. Della Green told Council that whatever their decision, she hoped that 1901 Vine would not be included in any rezoning at this time. She cautioned about rezoning an area surrounded by single-family residences, saying that increased density would cause many problems including overcrowding in the schools. Amy Vick, 1602 E. 17th Street, told Council she represented her neighborhood and that they opposed the proposed development due to its incompatibility with the existing homes. She noted two petitions had been submitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission containing a total of 120 signatures. Clark Lyda, representing the owner and developer, clarified that this development is a single-family project. He said the plan was to build bungalow homes with detached garages to the rear, with each house having its own 10 -foot driveway next to the neighboring driveway, thereby requiring only one curb cut. He noted that the only variance being asked was to place the houses closer to the street (15 feet instead of 25 feet as required). If forced to comply with existing zoning, the houses will be larger and will cost more money. City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 7 of 16 Pages Vincent asked the type of exterior material to be used and was told that typically the exteriors would be constructed of Nardi -panel, low maintenance siding. Fred Hilgeman, 1906 Vine, told Council that he Lives across the street from the proposed development. He claimed that the plat is not accurate as far as the size of the lots, saying that the lots across the street from the proposed development are 120 feet in width. He said the neighborhood focused on the garage apartments and did not address any of the other issues. He asked Council to deny the request. Hargrove, the builder, showed some detail on two display boards showing the differences between the houses they want to build and the houses they would be allowed to build without the zoning change. He told Council that their proposed development would be a superior product to what they could be allowed to build under the current zoning. Burson questioned whether the parkland dedication might be actually a problem to the City. Lyda said the City asked for the parkland, it wasn't their idea. Vincent asked Kingma if a sidewalk would be required. Kingma said the City had not required the developer to construct sidewalks, although sidewalks are required within 1000 feet of parkland. Mary Ellen Kersh, from the audience, said she lives on 19th Street, and had been concerned also and had spoken with Lyda and that is why some of the changes have been offered. She said she is concerned that if their suggested proposed development is not used, the alternative would be worse. Vick reiterated that the neighborhood feels threatened by the proposed development. Bain asked the the neighborhood to reconsider the current proposal, not taking into account the previous issues. Della Green said the real issue is the idea of rezoning in an area of single-family residences. Wood asked Kingma to re -explain that the rezoning being requested is still restricted to single-family residences. She explained also that the lots being proposed meet the requirements of the City Subdivision Regulations. Tonn said he felt the zoning should stay RS. Bain said he doesn't understand why the proposed development is offensive to the existing neighborhood, noting that the RP rezoning would be more restrictive. Vincent said he doesn't see any gain with RS. Bain stated that the Council needed to make their decision based on the information presented. City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 8 of 16 Pages Lyda explained that he would feel more pride in the houses he plans to build under the RP zoning than if he developed the same area under RS. Amy Vick suggested to Council that this decision tonight could be a precedent -setter, and this type of development could be built on any vacant street in any neighborhood in Georgetown. Tonn asked Lyda if he would be willing to meet with the neighborhood. Lyda said that they have met three times, and because they have been attempting to get this rezoning done since September, he would like to get a vote on first reading. Tonn asked the homeowners to respond. Green said she didn't see any point in discussing the issue further. She asked and was not able to get an answer as to who was doing the drainage digging around Smith Branch. She asked for the procedure regarding the petitions that were submitted. Kingma said the City ordinance is more restrictive than the State statute, and that a 3/4;vote of the Council is required due to the submission of the petition. Hilgeman said itwould be an advantage to be able to negotiate with Lyda. When asked about the possible flooding of the parkland and why the City would want that land, Hart responded that the City generally attempts to take possession. of floodplain to ensure that it remains vacant. When asked by Tonn if a two-week delay could be tolerated, Lyda said the timeframe is very important, and the delays become more and more expensive. Arroyos explained that his attendance is not dependable on April 8. Lyda said he has a filing deadline of April 7, so he may be forced to go ahead and file an alternative plat, which means the Council would need to consider both items on that agenda. Barry asked Council to give clear direction to staff as to what their role would be at the meeting between Lyda and the neighborhood would mediate the meeting It was generally understood that staff Motion by Tonn to defer until April 8, second by Hoyt. Approved 7-0. Z Consideration of a Preliminary Plat of 5.38 acres, including a 0.43 acre tract out of an unnumbered lot in the Nolen Addition, an addition out of Outlot 10, Division B of the City of Georgetown, and a 4.95 acre tract out of Outlot 8, Division B of the City of Georgetown, to be known as a Planned Unit Development of East 19th Street at Hutto Road, located on East 19th Street and Vine Street -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Motion by Hoyt, second by Tonn to defer this item to the April 8 Council Meeting. Approved 7-0. City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 9 of 16 Pages AA Consideration of a Detailed Development Plan of 5.38 acres, including a 0.43 acre tract out of an unnumbered lot in the Nolen Addition, an addition out of Outlot 10, Division B of the City of Georgetown, and a 4.95 acre tract out of Outlot 8, Division B of the City of Georgetown, to be known as a Planned Unit Development of East 19th Street at Hutto Road, located on East 19th Street and Vine Street -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Motion by Hoyt, second by Davis to defer this item to the April 8th Council Meeting. Approved 7-0. 9:45 p.m. recessed - 10:04 p.m. resumed open session BB First Reading of an ordinance to rezone 30.73 acres in the John Berry Survey from A, Agricultural to C -2A, Commercial First Height, or any more restrictive district, located on SH195 and CR190 -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Kingma noted that this piece of property is adjacent to two arterials, State Highway 195 and County Road 190. Staff and P & Z recommend to not permit any new access to CR190 until that road is built to standard. She noted that the area is served by Chisholm Trail Special Utility District and staff recommends proceeding only through first reading until a water supply capable of fireflow is available to the property. She also noted that staff and P & Z have recommended approval with limited uses in C2A including no mini -warehouse use and any use with outside display or storage would come back to the Council for review of use and design issues. Kingma read the caption only on first reading after having satisfied the requirements of the City Charter. John Warden, applicant/agent, said he appreciated the recommendations of the staff and the P & Z and offered to respond to any questions from Council. Vincent asked why the request for C2A instead of C 1. Warden replied that C2A was sought because the property is across the highway from industrial zoning, and the potential owners were interested in the broader usage allowed by C2A. Motion by Tonn for approval with conditions stated by staff, second by Hoyt. Approved 6-1. (Vincent opposed) CC First Reading of an ordinance to rezone 52.4 acres in the William Roberts Survey, formerly known as a portion of Berry Creek Subdivision, Section Five, and a Resubdivision of the Sybert Subdivision, to be known as Berry Creek, Section Five, from A, Agricultural to RS Residential Single Family, RP, Residential Planned, and C-1, Local Commercial, or any more restrictive classifications, located between SH195 and the existing Berry Creek development -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Citv Council Meeting Minates/March 25, 1997 Page 10 of 16 Pages Kingma noted that the next two items on the Agenda would also relate to this item. She said the staff and P & Z recommend approval because it incorporates the type of step- down in use that is looked for in zoning. She noted that it is recommended that separate zoning be allowed in the seven separate tracts. She also noted that the second reading for Tract 1 should not be held until the public water supply is adequate for ftreflow. Kingma read the caption only on first reading after having satisfied the requirements of the City Charter. She noted that because of the number of written protests received, a 3/4 vote would be required. Dan Day, 4204 Luna Trail, and home builder in the Berry Creek subdivision, is opposed to the rezoning due to the depreciation that he feels would occur to the existing homes. T. Getterman, 30104 Oakmont Drive, said he is a new resident and expressed his opposition to the proposed development due to the increased traffic that would deteriorate the neighborhood over a period of time. Celine Duke, 30503 Berry Creek Drive, told Council she is very opposed to the proposed development, especially if a vehicle repair business were to go into that development. Jim Mitchell, 3003 Indian Mound Road, said he lives across the creek and noted to Council that he had looked at several cities before relocating his business in Georgetown. He said that one of the reasons he chose Georgetown was because of the Berry Creek area. He said he is concerned about allowing development so close to the Berry Creek Golf Course and is concerned about the quality of the homes that could be built there. Jo Lynn Long spoke against proposed commercial buildings at the golf course, the proposed traffic, and increase in water and wastewater use. Curtis Mickan, 30601 Berry Creek Drive, told Council that he wanted to maintain the integrity of the subdivision and that the applicant has refused to meet with the area property owners. Carla Lowry, 30208 Briarcrest Drive, said she is a resident of a garden home at Berry Creek, enjoys living on the golf course, and doesn't want the proposed zoning to go through. Gayle Vokes, 30217 Briarcrest, said she is a Berry Creek Country Club employee and resident of Berry Creek. She said she was speaking on behalf of the Country Club that they oppose the proposed development. Bob Brent, 30104 Briarcrest said he thinks it is not a good idea to have commercial establishments adjacent to the country club golf course. City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 11 of 16 Pages Dot Lovett 30208 Briarcrest Drive said she lives in garden home at Berry Creek and noted that more than 200 names had been turned in opposing the proposed development. She said she has become more familiar with the Georgetown Century Plan, and there should be compelling reasons to modify it. She noted that the garden home residents have not seen any plans from the developer, so they are concerned about the quality of the homes that might be built there. She asked that Council not allow the commercial development on the golf course. Jack Hunnicutt, 1809 E. 16th Street, told Council that the constraints of 5500 square feet lot area would not allow an adequate garden home to be built if that is indeed what is intended to be built there. He said there is no surety of the quality of what might be built there. Robin Hallett, 30209 St. Andrews Drive, said she had raised her concerns with Developer Coffman and a number of compromises were reached. She noted that Coffman has been very willing to work with the neighbors, and she asked Council to approve the items dealing with this development. Bob Wunch, 30440 Berry Creek Drive, said he represented Double Creek Ltd. and Berry Creek Partners and they are opposed to the potential land uses, and asked Council to oppose this development. John Warden, project planner, told Council that the style and quality of the existing homes in Berry Creek would be upheld. He said as a professional planner he was open to any suggestions as to how the development could be better structured considering the golf course and the wastewater treatment plant. He said that the office buildings to be constructed near the golf course are limited to 5000 square foot structures. Jimmy Coffman, representing Woodrow Properties, developer of the property, said the concept plan that existed in 1982 called for intense uses due to the proximity to SH195. He noted that he had met with several property owners and had made numerous changes in an effort to compromise with their requests. Bain clarified several issues involving the intended development of the area. Vincent questioned access involving King's Way Road. Burson questioned the restrictions that would be placed on any future development of Tracts 6 and 7 and was told that the proposed zoning would require that the Detailed Development Plan be presented in public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission and would require two readings of a rezoning ordinance before the Council. Burson asked the Berry Creek residents in the audience if they were against the proposed development and the general response was that they were against it because they have no City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 12 of 16 Pages idea what might be developed. Kingma explained the restrictions for the C2 zoning, noting that the adjoining property was zoned C 1 which would allow some of the uses that the residents were stating they were opposed to. Lovett confirmed that the backs of the commercial structures would front the golf course. Mitchell said that putting commercial buildings at the far end of a golf course, would allow the public to walk onto the course. Hunnicutt suggested that if assurances of quality control could be provided on the potential garden homes, then perhaps the neighbors would be willing to go along with the plan. Coffman said that the detail would occur at a future point in the platting process. Lowry said the lack of detailed information on the proposed residential development and the possibility of commercial development is what is so objectionable to the neighbors. Warden explained to Council that the request for detail in such a Large area to be developed is inappropriate at this stage of the process. Jane Voltz said that she was in attendance at the meeting in Bob Wunch's office with Coffman and five residents. She said he was asked to delay for 30 days and said he probably would, but did not. She said the Council should deny the rezoning in order to protect the integrity of the Berry Creek area. Coffman, when asked by the Council said that he would be willing to meet again with the neighborhood, but asked Council for some direction as to whether deed restrictions are to be required and if they were requesting detail such as exterior materials, etc. Wood noted that the issues at hand are the golf course buffer, intensity plan and integrity of the neighborhood. Hart pointed out that the wastewater plant would be very costly to re -permit if residential single-family houses are built adjacent to the treatment plant. Rabe questioned if the Council were going to require deed restrictions of the developer, and told Council that state law forbids the Council from requiring deed restrictions at this level of development. Steve Doering questioned Hart and was told that no other kind of development except residential property would create a problem in re -permitting the wastewater treatment plant. Citv Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 13 of 16 Paces Wood suggested that Coffman notify the Berry Creek residents of a meeting, and then the item would be considered again at the Council Meeting on April 22. Motion by Vincent, second by Davis to defer Items CC, DD, and EE to the April 22 Council Meeting. Approved 5-2 (Bain and Hoyt opposed) DD First Reading of an ordinance amending Exhibit I - Intensity Map of the Century Plan - Development Plan to change a 40.1 acre portion of 52.4 acres in the William Roberts Survey, formerly known as a portion of the Berry Creek Subdivision, Section Five, from Intensity Level Three to Intensity Level Four and a 5.9 acre portion and a 2.1 acre portion of a resubdivision of the Sybert Subdivision from Intensity Level Three to Intensity Level Four and Intensity Level Five, to be known as Berry Creek, Section Five, located between SH195 and the existing Berry Creek development -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Motion by Vincent, second by Davis to defer Items CC, DD, and EE to the April 22 Council Meeting. Approved 5-2 (Bain and Hoyt opposed) EE Consideration of a Concept Plan of 52.4 acres in the William Roberts Survey, formerly known as a portion of Berry Creek, Section Five, and a Resubdivision of the Sybert Subdivision, to be known as Berry Creek, Section Five, located between SH195 and the existing Berry Creek development -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Motion by Vincent, second by Davis to defer Items CC, DD, and EE to the April 22 Council Meeting. Approved 5-2 (Bain and Hoyt opposed) FF (See beginning of Regular Agenda.) GG Consideration of a Final Plat of 2.30 acres in the William Roberts Survey, being a Resubdivision of Creek Side Subdivision, Lot 4 and L 12 acres of Historic Acres, Section One (Unrecorded), to be known as Creek Side II, located at Dry Creek Drive and Berry Cove -- Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry Kingma explained that this item includes two single-family residential lots and is the same property as Item T on the Consent Agenda, which Council approved with the stipulation that a note be placed on the plat to record in two phases. This property now has access through Indian Mound Road, but that road is scheduled by the County for abandonment. Motion by Davis, second by Arroyos to approve the Final Plat. Approved 7-0. HH First Reading of an ordinance defining the structure of the Fire Services Division -- Bill Shanklin City Council Meeting Minutes/March 25, 1997 Page 14 of 16 Pages Shanklin and Captain Anthony Lincoln read the ordinance in its entirety. Motion by Tonn, second by Burson to approve on first reading. Approved 7-0. II Consideration of approval of appropriate option regarding construction, operation and maintenance of median lighting on IH35 from Westinghouse Road to Lakeway Drive, at cost options to be determined by Council -- Leon Henderson and Jim Briggs Briggs told Council that it would be cheaper to pay for the ongoing maintenance and electricity for the lights than for up -front purchase of the light standards. Motion by Tonn, second by Burson to go along with the recommendation of the staff. Approved 7- 0. Bain asked if the plans were known for the City of Round Rock's portion of the lighting. Briggs said Round Rock would extend their lighting to FM1435, at which point Georgetown would take the lighting north to Lakeway Drive. He said that a white high- pressure light has been developed, which if used by Georgetown, would help to separate Georgetown. He said that the style of the light fixture would direct the light down onto the roadway instead of the way the current light standards operate. JJ Consideration of an award of bid for site development work related to Xycarb Ceramics, Inc./Schunk Quartz -- Bob Hart Hart explained that this is a Capital Fund project. It was recommended that Council approve the low bid by Parker Construction. Motion by Tonn, second by Burson to approve the award of bid. Approved 7-0.
