MARTIN DR.

Martin Drive (which had been tabled 6-24-82). The motion was secondedFINAL RD.

by Councilman Fogle. The motion carried as follows:


Rodriguez, Fogle & Mayor Webster.

NAYS: None.

Mr. Collier said that the request involved about 20 acres, and

that it did not involve any of the Goodlow area.

Bob Whitehead said that the engineers, Freese & Nichols, said that

if they constructed any sort of detention facility in the Goodlow area,

would flood more land than

in the flood hazard area. He said that the

present flood hazard area/just to the south of South 7th, and he pointed

out on the map, just where the present flooding had been. He said that

basicly, this area was platted with property which was not in the flood

hazard area.

Mr. Whitehead said that the way it was platted is where these

properties/no! to be in the floodway. He said that it had not been

allowed to be platted or zoned in the flood way. He brought out the

requirements.for building in the flood plain, which was that they

would have to build their houses basicly one foot above the water

level.Olen Fraser, speaking for the proponent, said that he might be

able to clear up a few questions on the flood plain and flood way,

since he was very familar with the property.

Mr. Fraser pointed out on the map just where S. 7th was and ex-

plained that it was on the north side of the property. The actual

flood way was also pointed out and what it encompassed. He said that

S. 7th is lower than this property in question. S. 7th has had water

in it, and he is not sure about the status of S. 7th. Anything that

is developed in this area will have entrances to the properties from

the middle of the property. The actual flood plain stops (he pointed

on the map) and

., pointed to the rest of the property which was com-

pletely out of the flood plain. But he said that any properties which

would be built on this particular property would be built so as there

will not be any flooding in the building and the parking lots will be

built up also. There is about two foot (in this particular area) flood

plain as it stands right now. Things that are under consideration right

now, to improve these creeks, none of them will raise that flood plain.

Some of the precautionary measures to improve these creeks (on Cedar &

Lytle) will actually lower the flood plain in this area, but it is not

their intent to build anything that would have a possibility of flooding

this area at all. He said that he did want to make clear that the flood

way actually runs down this area (pointed out on the map)of the Goodlow

Addition and does not shut off right here on the line (pointed out).

The Goodlow area was again pointed out by Mr. Collier on the map,

showing where the property to be developed was located also.

Councilman Rodriguez asked whether the property would be developed

where the water would not get into any of the homes. If there is a

flooding situation in the property?

Mr. Fraser: If it is built up in the parking lots by two feet, we

feel like we can eliminate any flooding problem on the property at all.

According to the topo maps we have looked at and worked with, we feel

like there is a good chance that will be very little fill that we will

have to place in the area to actually bring it all above flood plain.

When Martin Drive was constructed, some dirt was removed which was placed

on the property and the old topo maps do not take that into account.

There is a tremendous build up of fill dirt already in the area that

was placed when they built Martin Drive, but we feel like we can keep

the water out of any parking lots. We are very concerned with that,

we are going to be very cautious that we do stay above the flood plain.

Councilman Rodriguez: Once again, Mr. Whitehead, in the last flood

in October, we didn't have any water in that area?

Mr. Whitehead: We had water in the Goodlow, but the area that is

crossthatched on the map,

No, there was not any water there that I

recall-that was in that particular piece of property. It came up just

about the S. 7th at the north end of that property (there was water)

thru out that Goodlow area.

Councilman Bridges: Mr. Whitehead, you mentioned building a detention

facility and if I understood you correctly,you said if that is done it

could increase the amount of water in that area. Is that what you concluded to?

Mr. Whitehead: Yes Sir, that was the statement. What we did was, get

the railroad tracks and basicly use the elevation of the rails on the

tracks, which is at 1701 elevation, which then if we use that as the top

of the detention facility, it would create more of a back water, than

naturally exist.

Councilman Bridges: Have you anticipated how much greater it would be

and the specifications that currently are intact would cover that? In other

words, if the developer built a specified elevation that we have currently

and we increase the amount of water, would we still maintain people high

and dry?

Mr. Whitehead: The recommendation to you is based on the cost factors

in that facility, but it is not recommended to put a detention facility

in there. If that is still one of your considerations, that basicly will

back up water probably half way up on that property to the south, so

you would be eliminating the use of about one half of the property that

is to be developed. But again,.based on the cost effectiveness that we

have run thru, we are not recommending that to you, just from the cost

factors.

Mr. Fraser: My understanding, it was not only the cost factors,it

did such a marginal amount of good to the north that if it was very

cheap to do, a very inexpensive facility, it still would not help the

people to the north, which is the purpose of the detention dam.

Mr. Fraser: Let me go thru a`fewitems:,that I would like to present

to you on the property. To give you a little history on it, two and

one half months ago, of course you tabled it to have Freese and Nichols

do a study on the property. Three months ago,P & Z approved the property,

approved by all the board members that were present, and they based this

on certain guidelines which I would like for you to take into account.

It was in accordance with the land use plan. It does not encompass any

flood way. It is an enterior piece of property in the City of Abilene

that needs to be developed. All utilities are in lace and on the

property,and it would also utilize what we have/ta i ing about-Martin

Drive, which is a street that was built at City expense to be an escape

route for the people in the Goodlow area. It would utilize a very large

collector street in the area. At that time, Chairman Ken Baker made some

very positive comments that he was very pleased to see that we were

planning on developing this area. Reaching the Council two and one half

months ago, the main objection and the main reason it was tabled, or

the only reason it was tabled, was because of its proximity to the Good-

low area and there had been a lot of money spent in the Goodlow area to

move people out and that it was a concern that it would be placing

people back in that position. The answer to that was two fold: one

was that the detention facility is not recommended and so the flood

water would never rise above what we have right now. The second thing

that I would like to bring out, is that the Goodlow area , some of it

c_ `

is in the floodway and in moving the people out in that area, some of

the houses were in the flood plain, but they were built below flood

plain level. The structural build, so even in flood plain time, they

would flood. Those people were all re-located and everything that

was to the north was moved out. There was no existing buildings being

lived in on this particular piece of property that was in the Goodlow

area. So in looking at this, I would like for you to look at it, not

as the Goodlow people were moved, were creating another problem. I

think it is a new development in Abilene and it is something that

would be favorable to that particular area. It has some very good

points about it which I pointed out, that it has the utilities already

in place, which the City would not have to have that expense. Its an

interior piece of property, does not encompass any floodway and we

are planning on abidding with all the flood plain regulations and

building all of our slabs up where needed. It is in accordance with

the land use plan. Then the Freese and Nichols Study shows that it

is not feasible to flood the property, it is not feasible to build a

dam that would retain water. All the other consideration being pro-

posed by Freese & Nichols will either lower that flood plain or it

will remain the same. So we are in a very safe position there. I

think it was a very good point that the Goodlow facility was relocated

and it is a very good point to bring up and to be sure that we are not

creating another hazard. But we are very aware, in developing the pro-

perty, of the Goodlow area and of the flood problem that could have

posed a potential problem. But we feel like that has been solved by

building the slabs up and its also been solved by possibly building the

parking lots up on the property also. But we feel very good about this

property and feel like it should be treated like any other-property

that is in the flood plain. We are asking for zoning which is in the

flood plain, which is regularly on the agenda. We are asking today

that you consider us on that basis, that some of the property is in

the flood plain, some of the property is completely out. But we are

asking for no floodway properties.

Thank you Mr. Fraser,

Mayor Webster: Is there anyone else in the audience that would like to

address this item?

Mayor Webster closed the unofficial public hearing, there being

no one else present and desiring to be heard.

Mr. Seegmiller said that he felt that it should be clarified, that

nothing would be built, erected below the flood plain level.

Mr. Whitehead said that the structures will not be below the 100

year flood plain elevation. Now as far as he is concerned, the parking

lots can be if they so want to be designed. He said that he had no

problems with allowing parking lots to be flooded and actually use

them as small retention or detention basins. However, Mr. Fraser said

that his design was to have the parking lots above that elevation, also.

Mayor Webster said they would have to be very careful as to how

they built those houses, because of the Goodlow problem, that they

would not be able to sell them.

Councilman Bridges asked Mr. Whitehead if he meant there would

be an advantage to not building the parking lots at the same level

as the houses are being constructed.

Mr. Whitehead said that was one of the schemes, when they are

talking with the Mayor's Task Force on limiting the excess runoff

in a development. That is one of the things that a developer can

use on limiting the excess runoff, temporary storage in a parking

lot, rooftop storage, using landscaping to store some of that

excess water.

Councilwoman Proctor moved passage of the ordinance on final

reading reclassifying from A0, GC & RM-3 to RN-2 & GC Districts,

located on Martin Drive. The motion was seconded by Councilman

Bridges. The motion carried as follows:

CERTAIN PROPERTIES, AS DESCRIBED BELOW; DECLARING A PENALTY,


Wayne Kurfees, Director of Traffic & Transportation, briefed the

Council on the need for a Traffic Code amendment, because of a traffic

hazard that must be corrected at Lee Athletic Complex before next

Thursday game day by prohibiting some parking and two-way traffic

during certain hours.

Mr. Kurfees said that the making of the street one way during

the busy times would be made possible by signs that would fold down.

Then it could be changed back to regular traffic, after the busy

times of the day or night.

Mike Hall, Director of Community Services, said that they had

made this recommendation after experiencing traffic jams and near

accidents last Thursday night between the Jr. High football games.

After discussion, Councilman Fogle moved that we waive the

requirements for reading of ordinances upon two separate days and

pass the ordinance on emergency on first and final reading because

of a traffic hazard that must be corrected at Lee Athletic Complex

before next Thursday game day by prohibiting some parking and two-

way traffic during certain hours. The Staff was directed to further

study the traffic patterns, etc. to see if a better permanent solution

Mr. Kurfees explained the request to advertise for the Transit

Maintenance Facility Construction. He said that after the completion AUTH. TO

of the project it would enable all transit functions, i.e., dmin-

ADVERTISE

istration, operations and maintenance, to be moved to the South 2nd

MT. FACILITY

Street site.

He explained how the functions will be arranged on

the site:1) The transfer function, which now takes place at North 2nd

and Cedar, will be accommodated at the southwest corner of

South 2nd and Sycamore. An open-air transfer platform will

be constructed under the large metal canapy (which formerly

covered the new car sales area when the property was an

automobile dealership).

2) "Existing Building A," will house administration,

operations, and maintenance functions. A passenger wait-

ing room with public restrooms will be located on the north-

east corner of the building. The administration offices will

be located in the center of the north half of this building.

The remainder of Existing Building A will be used for bus

maintenance and parts storage.

3)A new 40 foot by 110 foot metal building will be constructed

on the south side of Existing Building A to accommodate one

pit, one lift and the bus service lane which includes fueling,

vacuuming and an automatic roller-type bus washer.

4)

Bus parking will take place on the southwest corner of the

property. Employee parking will take place along the west

side of the alley and in the area south of the transfer platform.

Mr. Kurfees said that at this point, it appears that the total project

cost is extremely close to the grant budget, including continguency. This

•is primarily the result of two cost items which were not anticipated when

the grant budget was prepared:

1)Very little of the existing paving on this site was found

to be adequate to carry bus wheel loads. Therefore, almost

all paving will have to be redone.

2)Because the former owner had constructed head-in parking,

much of the curbing and sidewalk on Elm and South 2nd Streets

will have to be replaced.

After discussion, Councilman Bridges moved to approve the oral

resolution authorizing the advertisement of the construction of the

Transit Maintenance Facility. The motion was seconded by Councilman

Rodriguez. The motion carried as follows:

Mr. Whitehead said that Clinton is not on a proposed assessment

be paved under an assessment paving program

After discussion, Councilman Rodriguez moved to approve the waiver

is conditioned upon satisfaction of the following:

Mr. Whitehead said that Buck Creek Road is the only road

Mr. Whitehead said That points to consider in conjunction with

this waiver request are

1)Availability of water to this property from the Hamby

2)

Mr. Whitehead recommended the waiver for the water & sewer, but

he said that the waiver for the curb and paving is not recommended in

light of the fact that this 70.5 acre tract is near a recently annexed

area in which paving will be required as it is developed.
