FINAL PLAT APPROVAL:
LUCAS ESTATES SUBDIVISION
City Manager Cowell read Planning and Zon-
ing Minutes, July 5, 1966, Item A, in which Planning and Zoning recommends approval
of the Final. Plat, Lucas Estates, with the following changes:
Item Two (2), under Drainage caption in Engineer's letter
dated June
20, 1966; that
a more suitable
flume be installed between
Lot 7 and Lot
8, Block 4,
deviating from
the recommended
100 ft. concrete flume; and
Item 5, under
Drainage -
that Mr, Lucas
be required to pair
one -half (2) of the cost
of a 48 inch
storm sewer
at the South-
east side,of.Lot,7,
Block 4,, for a, distance
of 117 feet,
and a'pro -rated portion of
one -half (a) olf
the improvements along the
remainder of the
drainage
channel, where
it does not join
his property, according to
the amount of
water flowing
ipto this
drainage channel
from his subdivision.
Members of the Council 'reviewed the Engi-
neers' letter and the plat, and Mr, Lucas discussed the varioas items 10 th.e
97-
(Page Seven, Minutes of Regular Meeting, Euless City Council, July 12, 1966.)
Engineer's letter.
M: Lucas stated that he wi I I concur with
Items One '(1) through Five (5) pertaining to streets and Items One (1), Three (3)
and Four (4) pertaining to drainage; however, Items Two (2) and Five (5) are de-
batable. Item Two (2) concerns the concrete flume to provide for overland flow on
top of storm sewer beginning at a point approximately 100 feet from the end of
drainage pipe, where the natural ground begins to slope more steeply to the creek
(recommended, by Engineers). Mr. Lucas stated that by complying with this recom-
mendation, his- Engineers are of the opinion that the concrete will come to the back
of the house between lots 7 and 8, Block 4,
Mr. B i I I Ratliff, City's Consulting Engi-
neer, stated that this situation depends on the grade of the lot and, in his
opinion, this particular item can be co- ordinated between the City's Engineers and
Mr. Lucas' Engineers.
Councilman Fuller inquired of Mr. Ratliff,
if water could get into the houses at this location. Mr. R at I i ff stated he was of
the opinion that the method of construction of the flume would have no effect on
water rising into the houses in this area.
I tem 5 - Mr. Lucas stated that he is a-
greeable to'pay his portion of the cost of improvements to the drainage channel;
however, he does not concur with the Engineers' recommendations to participate to
the extent of $8,156.00 because a portion of his property does not bound the drain-
age ditch, specifically, Lot 8, Block 4. Mr. Lucas stated that he w i I I agree to
pay a pro -rata water percentage calculated by the Engineers.
Mr. Ratliff stated the Engineers had cal-
culated their figures and recommendations based on the City's established and
adopted policies _and procedures and, if the Council deviates from these policies in
this matter, the Engineers must be instructed by the Council, a policy for future
cases of this nature.
Councilman Samuels inquired who would pay
for the remainder of the channel improvements, i.f Mr. Lucas does not. Mr. Ratliff
stated this will be a matter for Council decision.
Mr. Lucas stated he is agreeable to-par-
ticipate in these improvements in the amount of $1,578.00 vs. $8,156.00, as re-
commended by Planning and Zoning.
After considerable discussion, Councilman
Douglass made the motion that Mr. Lucas be required to participate to the extent
of 117 feet, in the drainage- channel, at $8.00 per linear foot, or a total of
$936.00. Councilman Byers seconded the motion, and the vote is as follows:
Ayes: Councilmen Douglass, Byers, Fuller and Samuels
Nays: None
Mayor Fuller declared the motion carried.
M r . Lucas stated that he w i l l concur with
all items under Sewer System in Engineer's letter; however, under Water System,
there are items for discussion. He stated he wi I I concur with Items One (1), Four
•
(P�age Eigh't,' Minutes of Regular Meeting, Euless City Council, July 12, 1966
(4) and Five ( 5 ) ; however, he does not agree t h a t a s i x inch- l i n e should be plan-
ned f o r M i l l i n g Road (Engineers recommend Six (6). Mr. Lucas states that a two I
(2) inch. 1 i ne "is adequate for lots to be served i n this subdivision.
Item 3 - Engineers recommend an eight (8)
inch water line in Mesa Drive and Northend Drive, in'order to provide necessary
fire protection, and that the eight (8) inch line within the subdivision be con-
structed at dev_el.oper's expense. (The existing portion of six (6) inch water line
in Mesa Drive South 'of Subdivision could be replaced with a'n eight' (8) inch by the
City, at a later date.) Mr. Lucas stated he 'will agree to an eight (8) "inch' line,
but does not think it is feasible too tie 'an eight (8) inch 'line into a six (6)
inch line.
After discussion, Councilman Fuller made
motion to concur with Engineers' recommendations, with the exception of the in-
stallation of an eight (8) inch line on Huffman Drive, which the'Engineers believe
can be delayed until a future -time. Councilman Douglass seconded the motion, and
the vote is as follows:
Ayes: Councilmen Fuller, Douglass, Byers and Samuels
Nays: None

for their assistance in re- producing this report and stated that this committee de-
sires the Council's approval of this report, with additions, corrections and /or

fore, extensive planning is required for both areas.

Mr. Hyde reviewed, briefly, all items in
the booklet and informed the Council that he has been informed that the pool at
Trinity High School will be a twenty - five- {25} meter pool, six (6) lane, with a
five (5) meter and three (3) meter board, which is adequate for competitive swim-
ming. He stated that the School District is anxious to determine the extent that
the City plans to participate. The Council was reminded that a legal opinion is to
be given by the City Attorney, regarding this matter.
Mayor Fuller stated that he i s of the
opinion that the Park and Recreation Committee should give some consideration to
plans for a band shell or some other facility of 'this type. He commented that the
Municipal Band, which is now a part of the City's summer recreation program, seems
to be attracting older people, and he believes this is an area well worth pursuing.
