CASE NO. 232. REQUEST OF MR. JOHN J. FREIBERGER
Mayor Pro Tem Copher stated that members
of the City Planning and Zoning Commission have requested to be recognized in
order to inform the Council of their reason for requesting denial of the
rezoning for the mini - warehouses, offices, and caretaker's quarters.
Mr. Copher recognized Mr. Carl Tyson
representing the City Planning and Zoning Commission.
Mr. Tyson gave reasons for re'commendi ng
denial as follows:
1. Mini - warehouses are just what they name implied' and should be
in L-1, 1 -1 , and 1 -2, and they should not be located in a
commercial zoning district.
2. City Engineers recommended connecting Sagebrush and Benbow
Drive and there should be an outlet to Hwy. 183.
3. This location, as presented, is a fire hazard because fire
hydrants will be completely enclosed by a fence.
Owners can not control stored items, therefore, there is a
danger of combustible items.
Mr. Tyson stated that basically these are
the objections of the Planning and Zoning Commission members in this case.
Mayor Pro Tem Copher recognized Mr. Bart
Bradford, representing Mr. Freiberger.
Mr. Bradford stated that all of these
items had been discussed previously and resolved and that he has nothing
further to add, unless members of the Council have questions.
Mr. Samuels stated that the Council did
not discuss items to be stored.
Mr. Freiberger stated that the contract
signed by persons using the storage facilities has certain limitations -- one
is for non - combustible items. He stated that there i s control of items
stored; there is twenty -four hours supervision of the storage facilities.
He stated that he could not say that something could not be stored without
their knowledge, but it would be difficult for this to be done.
151
(Page Three, Regular Meeting Euless City Council, August 14, 1973)
In reply to a question by Mr. Samuels,
Mr. Freiberger stated the contract permits his personnel to break the lock
in suspicious circumstances.
Mr. Copher asked for a briefing on
Sagebrush connecting to Benbow Drive.
. Mr. Bradford stated that basically fifty
percent of the adjacent property is vacant = -there are no water and sewer
lines - -no one lives in that area and therefore, no traffic would be generated.
He stated that he does not think it is feasible to build a street fhrough
the property to Hwy. 183, where there is no traffic signal; that if the street
is extended, i t w i l l chop the property up and part of i t w i l l be unusable.
Mr. Dunn stated that much time has been
spent on this zoning case; that the Council had a very complete presentation
by Mr. Bradford and Mr. Freiberger and this is an area of a long narrow
piece of property. He stated that the City Council is appreciative of the
fine work of the City Planning and Zoning Commission, but personally, he
thinks this is a good project for the City.
Mr. Dunn moved to approve second and
final reading of Ordinance No. 450.
Mr. Benson seconded the motion and the
vote is as follows:

DAVIDSON, COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT
Mayor Pro Tem Copher recognized Mr. Davidson
who presented a slide program as an introduction to a proposed soil survey
program for Tarrant County.
The Council had received a letter advising
that such a survey would:
1. help planners in locating landfills and solid waste disposal
sites;
2. save taxpayers large sums of money when used by road builders
and highway construction engineers in planning routes and
structures;
157.
(Page Nine. Regular Meeting Euless City Council. August 14, 1973)
3. help developers in locating problems associated with housing
sites, shopping center, or industrial parks based on the
safety and costs involved with a site's particular soils and
their favorability for foundations;
4. help planners in identifying possible floodways, drainage
potentials of sites and the best areas of landscaping;
5. increase public utility companies' understanding of the
corrosive characteristics, the consistency of the area's soils,
and the depth to rock for their underground work (50% of
Tarrant County is underlain at shallow depths by hard rock);
6. help identify those soils particularly well- suited for agri-
cultural uses - -urban expansion in the form of housing
developments, superhighways, airports, shopping centers and
industries are burying some of ,our best farmland at the rate
of more than a million acres a year throughout the U. S.
Mr. Davidson stated that the County Planning
Department is not asking for funding at this time. He stated that a report
w i l l be made f o l l o w i n g the survey which w i l l be p r i n t e d by the County and w i l l
be available to a11`theCCities.
In reply to a question he stated that this
program w i l l be presented to the Commissioner's Court and to several other
Cities and the total figure for the City of Euless for two years is $2,950.00
Mr. Coffee, a representative of the Soil
Conservation Service, stated that a study of this nature would require many
years of work before completion, if it is assumed by only one entity; however,
if several Cities and the County Commissioners participate, the project could
be finished in a very short time and made available to the Cities.
Mr. Davidson stated that a survey of this
type would provide information that would be helpful to developers and the
City; that it would make problems of the soil known; that it would provide
information of soil most suitable to plant life.
Mayor Pro Tem Copher suggested that the
City Manager disucss this proposal with the City Engineers and present a
recommendation to -the City Council.
Mr. Davidson stated that he would like to
have a letter of the City's intent as soon as possible.
The City Secretary was instructed to
schedule this item for the n -ext City Council Agenda.
