Re: City of Georgetown's model home construction policy
Dear Ms. Kingma:
Thank you for meeting with Keith Young and myself last Tuesday. As I mentioned, I would
like to suggest Milburn Homes' system for constructing model homes in new subdivisions.
As we discussed, please feel free to use our system in your information gathering process to
formulate a suggestion to the council for the City of Georgetown's model home construction
policy. Please understand that Milburn Homes is the only developer and only home construction
builder in our subdivisions.
The following is Milburn Homes' method of construction for most of its subdivisions within
various cities and entities:
As soon as the streets are rough cut and the utilities have been constructed and tested,
Milburn Homes is usually allowed to begin construction of our model home(s). Separate
model home construction entrances can be designated on a plan showing subcontractor
access to the house. That way the subdivision contractor traffic will not interfere. This
allows us to "dovetail" the construction of the model homes while building our first phase
or section of lots in our subdivision so that both the model and the subdivision's first
phase is completed at the same time. Model home construction would also take place
with the understanding that no water or sewer connections can be made until the
subdivision has been accepted. Our model home(s) cannot be open to the public until the
subdivision is accepted by the City. In a case such as the City of Georgetown where the
subdivision infrastructure is completed prior to a final plat being recorded, we would,
in this particular instance, sign a waiver releasing the City and assume full responsibility
for any encroachments over building lines and/or easements.
Please consider our request that we be allowed to "dovetail" our model home construction after
utilities have been installed in the subdivision so we can be ready to open the model at the same

time the subdivision is accepted. Although it may not sound like a lot of time, whenever we can
save two or three months of construction we are able to take advantage of our marketing
"window" and will also save in interest carry on the infrastructure, ultimately saving the
hornebuyer money. We also would like to clarify that we will still be allowed to hook up a
temporary trailer enabling us to market out of during the model home's construction. Thank you
for taking our comments and suggestions under consideration. If you have any questions or need
additional information or clarification please feel free to give me a call.
Very truly yours,

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Leane Heldenfels, AICP, Senior Planner
thru Ed Barry, AICP - Director, Division of Development Services
DATE: September 26, 1995
SUBJECT: Model Home/Temporary Sales Office Issue
After the September 12, 1995, Council meeting Development Services staff polled a few
cities in Texas and other states to determine to what extent they regulate the model
home/temporary sales office use. As is the case with many development issues, the results of
that research encompassed both ends of a broad spectrum. There are several cities that have no
written regulations, but have adopted a staff -controlled policy to address the issue in a manner
similar to that under which Georgetown is currently operating. There are also a few cities that
require formal site plan submittal and review by staff and/or a regulatory board, such as the P&Z
or BOA.
Most of the cities address the conditions staff suggested for you to consider in a revision
to our Zoning Ordinance: length of time the use can operate, area the model home can serve,
and the number of model homes allowed within one development. None of the ordinance
information received dealt with the provision of additional off-street parking. The City of Round
Rock stipulates that a water main must be within 100 feet from the model home before
construction can begin on the home, thus allowing construction of the home/office to begin even
though all improvements for the subdivision may not have been completed. This allows the
home/office to be operational by the time lots can be sold.
Other issues that were not specifically discussed in most of the ordinances, but that
Council may wish to consider, are: guidelines for landscaping, lighting, compatibility with
neighboring residences, hours of operation, and convertability to a single family residence.

-�" AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT:. Governance discussion regarding conditions for model homes
ITEM SUMMARY: With the increase in development activity in and around the community,
there has arisen the need to address how model homes should be regulated. Recent events have
indicated that while home builders desire to locate model homes in developing parts of the
community, existing residents have concerns about such uses being located in established
neighborhoods. Give the proximity of developing subdivisions to established residential areas
a conflict between homebuilders and residents can easily arise. In deciding whether or not to
adopt regulations on model homes a variety of issues should be considered. These are outlined
in the attached memo. We anticipate having additional information to cover at the workshop.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: None.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: None.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Zoning Commission/Sign Review Board Members
FROM: Hildy L. Kingma, AICP - Chief Planner,
DATE: August 31, 1995
SUBJECT: Proposal for Resolution of Model Home Concerns
At the August 1, 1995, meeting of the Sign Review Board, the Board considered and
denied a request for a variance to the sign standards for a model home sign to be located on a
residential lot. During the discussion, the Sign Review Board asked staff to reconsider current
policy that allows model homes to be located in residential areas under specified conditions. This
memo describes the actions that staff intends to take with regard to the Board's concerns about
model homes.
Staff proposes to prepare revisions to the Zoning Ordinance that will allow model homes
to be located in all the "R" zoning districts under specified conditions. Following are some of
the conditions that are being considered for this revision. These conditions include those
currently used (*), as well as some additional conditions proposed by the Sign Review , Board
during the discussion on August 1.
* 1. The space used for the sales office shall not be altered such that it cannot be converted
to its typical purpose in a single family home. For example, if the garage is to be used
as a sales office, there must be other provisions made to accommodate the required two
(2) parking spaces outside the front building setback.
* 2. The Building Inspections Services Department shall issue a temporary certificate of
occupancy for a limited period during which the sales office may operate. This period
may either be established by the ordinance or be negotiated between the Building Official
and the occupant. [What would be a reasonable time limit?]
3. If the model home violates any other City ordinance, the temporary certificate of
occupancy may be revoked.
4. The model home shall be located within the subdivision being developed. [Some
discussion should occur regarding this point. Should this strictly be the subdivision, or
is it appropriate to allow model homes to be located within a larger neighborhood? If
allowed within the neighborhood, define what constitutes a neighborhood. If limited to
the subdivision, will that be further limited to the section or phase of a larger subdivision
being developed?]
5. Consider establishing a limit on the number of model homes that will be permitted at
any time within one subdivision/neighborhood. [What is the Commission's
recommendation regarding this limit?]
The Planning and Zoning Commission should provide input to these conditions to assist
staff in preparing a Zoning Ordinance revision for consideration at the October meeting.
The Board was also concerned about the location of a model home on the lot that was the
subject of the sign variance. This lot is located at 1000 Woodview Drive (Thousand Oaks
Subdivision, Lot 1, Block 1). The property is zoned RS, Residential Single Family, although
C-1, Local Commercial, zoning exists to the east, and RM-1, Multifamily, exists north of
Leander Road. Further, this lot is the only one in the Thousand Oaks subdivision that has
frontage on Leander Road, a major arterial. The property owner, Buffington Homes, requested
their permit on May 9, 1995. At that time, they notified the City's Building Inspections
Department that they intended to use this property as a model home for a period of 12 to 18
months. The Building Inspections Department has worked with this home builder during the
construction of the home with the understanding that it will operate as a model home under the
policy that is currently in place. At this time, the construction of the home is nearly complete.
Given this history, staff recommends at this time that the model home on this lot be allowed to
open and operate for an 12 month period of time. No other model home will be permitted within
the City limits, however, until the Zoning Ordinance revision described above is approved by the
City Council.
Staff requests that the Planning and Zoning Commission make a recommendation
regarding this issue that will be brought to the City Council at their meeting of September 12,
1995. Please note the petition that has been received (attached) that addresses this issue.

Mr. Ed Berry
City of Georgetown
Planning and Zoning Department
Georgetown, Texas 78627
Dear Mr. Berry,
Attached you will find copies of a petitions (six pages) that have been signed
by the residents of the Thousand Oaks Sub -division, indicating their direct
opposition to your departments granting of a permit to Buffington Homes
for purpose of allowing a Single Family Dwelling to be used as a Commercial
Sales Office.
Outside of the dwelling, to which we are opposed as being used as a
commercial office, Buffington Homes has no other homes for sale within
the Thousand Oaks Sub -division nor do they own any lots within the sub-
division on which to build new homes. It is our understanding that the lot
on which this dwelling has been built is zoned as "RS 1," whereby no
commercial activity is allowed to exist. We also believe that in order for a
dwelling to be classified as a "Model Home" that it should have commonality
with the other homes being sold and physically located in the same
Sub -Division. However, the Planning and Zoning Department of the City
of Georgetown has granted to Buffington Homes a permit to utilize the
subject dwelling as Model Home which has absolutely no commonality with
the Thousand Oaks Sub -division in which it is built. By utilizing this
dwelling as a sales office to sell properties outside of the platted bounds of
the Sub -Division Buffington Homes is representing themselves as a Real
Estate Office, no different than Coldwell Banker, Century 21, etc.
Would the Planning and Zoning Department grant a permit for a Realtor
to build a Single Family Dwelling in a residential neighborhood and use it for
an undetermined period time as a Sales Office without first having the
property zoned as commercial? If the answer is no, then what is the
Justification for allowing Buffington Homes to utilize this dwelling to sell
homes located in every part of town except within the Sub -Division in which
the office is located? Where is the difference? What ordinance allowed for
the issuance of this permit to Buffington Homes?
The residents whose signatures appear on the attached petitions represent a
significant percentage of the households in Thousand Oaks Sub -Division, all
of whom are admittedly opposed to the action taken by the Planning and
Zoning Department's issuance of this permit. We feel that the City has
violated it's own zoning ordinances by allowing the use of the subject
dwelling to become a Commercial Office within a residential neighborhood
zoned as RS 1. All of which was done without any pubic notice or hearing.
Nor was Buffington Homes ever made to seek a variance to the current
zoning ordinance.
A vast majority of the signers of this petitions wanted to know about the
sidewalk that was built around the perimeter of the subject Buffington
Home. Since it has been the policy of the City of Georgetown, Planning
and Zoning Department not to allow variances for sidewalks within the
Thousand Oaks Sub -Division, why and how did Buffington Homes gain
an exception to the binding covenant regarding this matter? If this is
allowed to stand can the residents of Thousand Oaks Sub -division expect
to see construction by Buffington Homes or the City of Georgetown to begin
within the near future to provide sidewalks throughout the neighborhood?
The residents of Thousand Oaks Sub -Division feels that the City of
Georgetown, Planning and Zoning Department has been lured into making a
sizable error in this matter. We feel that the Law has been clearly broken
and our rights have been violated, and that the City of Georgetown should
revoke the permit that was issued allowing this dwelling to be used for the
purpose of housing a commercial enterprise or postpone Buffington Homes
use of the same until a public hearing can be held.
If your department indicates that it is too late, whereby refusing to revoke
the permit you have granted or hold a public hearing for the review of such,
then the residents of Thousand Oaks Sub -division must assume that your
department was aware of and condones all violations that have occurred in
regards to this matter. If this is in fact the decision of the Planning and
Zoning Department, then the residents of Thousand Oaks Sub -division will
be left no other alternative than to pursue other avenues by which to fight
this matter.

Regular Agenda
U Citizens wishing to address the Council
Sam Gardner of 207 John Thomas informed Council that the construction in area is creating
problems. Many people drive too fast on the winding road with obstructed views. There
are lots of walkers early and late in the day. Gardner presented a petition showing that 27
of the 30 residents contacted would like a reasonable speed limit posted and enforced for that
area. He told Council that Austin has a "Speed Hump Project" that he would like to see
started in Georgetown. Wood acknowledged receipt of the petition.
Wood recognized, in the audience, Lone Star Gas officials Bill Smith, Jody Butler, Richard
Bone and Doug McCall.
Arroyos thanked City staff for their assistance with Fiesta San Jose.
Bill Miller of Berry Creek spoke to Council regarding the proposed variance to impervious
cover that would be coming before them sometime in the near future, to which he is very
much opposed, saying that he feels the variance is being requested purely for the economic
gain of the developer.
V Mayor, Council, City Manager, and staff comments and reports

CC Authorization for distribution of funds received in a grant to the Mayor through the
American Hometown Leaders Award Program sponsored by the National Association of
Towns and Townships and Wa1Mart stores/Mayor Wood
Wood asked Eunice Blair, President of the G.I.V.E. Board to come forward. Mrs. Blair
announced that she had nominated Wood for the leadership award because of his constant
sustained support for the G.I. V.E. Program. Wood also invited Jeri Manhal, Executive
Director of G.I.V.E. and Karen Hill, Chair of the Georgetown Heritage Society to come
forward. Wood thanked Blair and the G.I.V.E. Board, and announced that $3000 of the
$5000 award would be given to the G.I.V.E. Program, and $1000 would be given to the
Heritage Society for the Grace Church Fund. Wood said that because he had promised the
bond rating agencies in New York that the City would assist the General Fund whenever
possible, $1000 would go to the General Fund.
Motion by Bain, second by Vincent to approve the Mayor's recommended distribution of
the award funds. Approved 6-0. Hill thanked Wood and the Council for the $1000 for the
Grace Church Fund.

Morgan read the caption. Curl asked if Council should receive recommendations from the
Judge and then adopt this ordinance. Banks and Morgan explained that this ordinance would
allow the Judge to choose the rate within a range prescribed by the State.
Motion by Curl, second by Bain to approve Ordinance No. 95-41 on second reading.
Approved 6-0.
Hoyt asked for a copy of the new rates. Morgan assured them that Judge would provide a
copy of the rates for Council.
Z Second reading of an ordinance amending Chapters 8.04 and 2.32, and Title 15 of the Code
of Ordinances, providing the adoption of updated versions of the Building and Electrical
Construction Codes/Ed Barry and David Hall
Hall read the caption. Motion by Tonn, second by Curl to approve Ordinance 95-42 on
second reading. Approved 6-0.
AA Second reading of an ordinance amending Chapter 2.60 of the Code of Ordinances for the
Board of Electrical Examiners/Ed Barry and David Hall

DD Request for Council guidance related to revisions to the Zoning Ordinance to allow model
homes in the' R' zoning districts, and to allow a model home to operate at 1000 Woodview
Drive specifically/Hildy Kingma and Ed Barry
Barry explained that this guidance request concerned two issues. The first issue was how
to address model homes throughout Georgetown, and the second issue was how to address
the model home at 1000 Woodview Drive. Barry explained that staff has tried to work with
the homebuilders in the area. He suggested that since there were a number of issues to deal
with, a workshop could be scheduled to discuss the issues, or Council could send this item
City Council Minutes/September 12, 1995
Page 6 of 10 Pages
back to Planning and Zoning for recommendations. Barry reminded Council that a petition
had been submitted by the neighbors in the area.
Tom Casey of 214 Rockcrest Drive stated that Buffington Homes had never built before in
1000 Oaks Subdivision., He explained that the neighborhood's first concern was for two
very large signs that would have created viewing difficulties on the corner. Planning and
Zoning denied the signs. Casey said that the builder stated at the P & Z Meeting that the
model was built as a marketing method to compete with the more visible homes of other
builders. Casey and other residents feel that the lighting is obtrusive and the sidewalks
installed on two sides of the corner location are in response to a regulation in the Sierra Vista
section where the builder is actually constructing homes. Sidewalks were not required when
1000 Oaks Subdivision was built because the area had not yet been annexed. Casey
suggested that if the builder would be willing to put sidewalks throughout the rest of the
neighborhood, the neighbors would not oppose the model home.
When asked by Council if the model home was operating at this time, City Building
Inspector David Hall replied that a temporary final permit had been issued stating on the
permit that permission was granted to operate pending City Council decision. Barry stated
that lights are allowed as long as they are directed not to shine into the neighbor's yards.
Wood asked Banks to make a recommendation for Council action. Banks said the City
Council could revoke the permit, but the builder would then have grounds for a claim
against the City.
Curl emphasized again that the City needs an urban design plan because of the increased
growth. She asked for a workshop and resurrection of the urban design committee.
Banks advised Council that if this model home is found in violation, all existing model
homes in the City would also be found in violation except those in Churchill Farms because
they were in existence before the area was annexed, and those in Sun City because they were
handled under the regulations for a Planned Unit Development.
Motion by Hoyt, second by Bain to hold a workshop to discuss these issues at the Council
Meeting on September 26, and revoke the temporary permit until after the next meeting.
Arroyos asked what kind of risk this would be for city staff. Banks repeated that the builder
would have a valid claim. Approved 5-1 (Arroyos opposed)
EE Consideration of an amendment to increase rates in the collection and disposal of the solid
waste contract with Longhorn Disposal/Hartley Sappington
Wood asked for the difference between this item and Item JJ. Hart explained that this
increase would be in addition to the amount in the ordinance. Wood asked what amount of
City Council Minutes/September 12, 1995
Page 7 of 10 Pages
increase would be needed to cover the increased tipping fees. Sappington replied that about
$0.10 of the requested increase would cover the tipping fees, but another increase from the
landfill is anticipated in February.
Motion by Tonn, second by Hoyt to give Longhorn $0.10 cents on residential service and
1.2% on commercial service to cover the cost of the tipping fees. Approved 6-0.
FF First reading of an ordinance amending the 1994/95 Annual Operating Plan Element
(budget) to offset variances in various fund budgets for increases in expenditures that are
tied to service requests or revenue collection rates, to properly account for grant
expenditures, and to reclass expenditures between funds/Micki Rundell and Susan Morgan
Morgan stated that this is a "clean-up" item for the current budget. She said that the most
significant item pertained to sanitation revenue. Morgan said that sales are up, and this
increase was passed through to Longhorn. Also, a small grant was received for the Airport
and that money needs to be passed through.
Morgan read the caption. Motion by Bain, second by Hoyt Approved 6-0.
GG First reading of an ordinance adopting an Annual Operating Plan Element of the
Georgetown Century Plan (budget) for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 1995, and ending
September 30, 1996; adopting the Annual Amendment to the Century Plan/Susan Morgan
and Bob Hart
Morgan explained that this ordinance adopts the budget with a few minor changes having
occurred such as the elimination of the items that had been included for the proposed gas
distribution system.
Morgan read the caption only on first reading after satisfying the requirements of the
Charter. Motion by Tonn, second by Vincent to approve this ordinance on first reading.
Approved 6-0.
HH First reading of an ordinance amending Sec.2.08.010 "Administrative Divisions and
Departments" of the Georgetown Code of Ordinances/Susan Morgan and Bob Hart
Morgan explained that this ordinance sets up the operating divisions. She noted that changes
were pointed out in the item cover sheet. Morgan read the caption on first reading after
satisfying the requirements of the Charter. Motion by Bain, second by Tonn to approve this
ordinance on first reading. Approved 6-0.
II First reading of an ordinance levying a tax rate for the City of Georgetown for the tax year
1995/Susan Morgan and Bob Hart
City Council Minutes/September 12, 1995
Page 8 of 10 Pages
Morgan read the caption only on first reading after satisfying the requirements of the
Charter. Tonn asked if the deletion of the proposed gas distribution system would effect the
tax rate. Hart explained that the gas system would have been covered by the Del Webb SIP
fees. Wood asked for a motion to adopt the 37 cent rate. Motion by Vincent, second by
Bain to approve this ordinance on first reading. Approved 6-0.
JJ First reading of an ordinance amending solid waste disposal rates/Susan Morgan and Bob
Hart
Morgan noted that on second reading this ordinance would reflect the motion made earlier
on the agenda to include the $0.10 increase rather than $0.75. Morgan read the caption only
on first reading after satisfying the requirements of the Charter. Motion by Tonn, second
by Hoyt to approve this ordinance on first reading. Approved 6-0.
KK First reading of an ordinance establishing water and sewer rates for customers in the Berry
Creek service area for billing permits after September 30, 1995/Susan Morgan
Jack Milanese of Berry Creek said he feels the Berry Creek residents are not receiving the
same services as other areas in the ETJ and would like for the water rates to be held as they
are until the services increase or until the water supply is adequate.
Bill Miller said that he would like to echo the previous remarks. He told Council that he
feels that the current water system is the same inadequate one, so why should the Berry
Creek residents pay more? He asked who pays for the laying of the water lines to supply the
area with water. He suggested delaying the increase until the line is laid and the service is
improved. Hart explained that the general policy is that the user/developer bears the cost.
All improvements in the Georgetown water system are provided through revenues from the
entire system.
Morgan read the caption only on first reading after satisfying the requirements of the
Charter. Morgan explained that the Council had passed a special ordinance back in March,
when the system was purchased, to allow the residents to remain on their old rate, because
the improvements would not be possible until the next fiscal year. She explained that the
ordinance was written to expire in September. She advised that if the improvements are not
done, the system will not be adequate.
Motion by Hoyt, second by Vincent to approve this ordinance on first reading. Approved
6-0.
Curl asked if the City was making plans for water conservation. Hart said the staff
recommends that the Council look at the options in early Spring. The City is participating
in the Trans -Texas Study and investigating all the other nearby water systems along with
City Council Minutes/September 12, 1995
Page 9 of 10 Pages
options for long-term water supplies. Hart said that rationing would probably be dealt with
at the treatment plant level regarding peak use.
LL First reading of an ordinance amending the fuel flowage fee rates charged at the Georgetown
Municipal Airport/Travis McLain and Hartley Sappington
McLain read the ordinance. Motion by Vincent, second by Hoyt to approve this ordinance
on first reading. Approved 5-0. (Curl abstained)
M Consideration of a development agreement concerning payment of improvements by Russell
Laundromat/Marianne Banks
Bain had a question about enforcement of payment. Banks explained that the City could
either sue or turn off utilities. Motion by Tonn, second by Hoyt to approve the development
agreement. Approved 6-0.
MM Final comments and evaluation of meeting process
0 There were no final comments.

Council Meeting Date: September 26, 1995 Item No. IV
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
Consider award of the annual bid for gasoline and diesel fuel to Triple S Petroleum in the
estimated annual amount of $79,000.00 for unleaded gasoline and $19,000.00 for diesel fuel.
ITEM SUMMARY
Bids were received for the purchase of gasoline and diesel fuel for a one year period, with
an option to renew at the end of the term for an additional one year period if mutually agreed upon
by all parties. The staff is recommending that this bid be awarded to the overall low bidder, Triple
S Petroleum of Austin.
This bid was written, solicited, and evaluated through a cooperative effort of Williamson
County, Georgetown ISD, the City of Round Rock, Round Rock ISD, and the City of Georgetown.
Each entity provided input for the specifications which would address their unique situations. The
City of Georgetown Purchasing Department staff then took the information and incorporated it into
a comprehensive specification that met all of the participating entities requirements. After bids were
received representatives from each entity met to discuss the criteria to be used for recommending
an award. As a result of this meeting it is recommended the fuel bid be awarded to Triple S
Petroleum as the overall low bidder. Each entity will be responsible for the purchase of their fuel
from Triple S as well as the resolution of any disputes. Additionally there is a clause that allows any
other entity wishing to participate in this bid the right to do so after their governing body approves
a cooperative purchase agreement.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
To my knowledge this is the first time that these governmental entities have participated
together in a cooperative purchase. We are currently in the process of forming a County wide
cooperative purchasing group that will explore future cooperative ventures with all governmental
entities in Williamson County, not only to obtain more favorable pricing but also to reduce the
associated staff and bid advertising costs.
FINANCIAL IMPACT (cost of item, fund and division name, budgeted amt.)
Total estimated amount of this bid is $98,000.00. Funds were budgeted for this expenditure
in each department's fuel and oil account.

Award bid for all lines of property and casualty insurance for FY'96 in the estimated amount of
$2527440
ITEM SUMMARY
With the assistance of an insurance consultant, City staff prepared bid proposals on all
lines of property/casualty insurance, received bids from eight brokers/agents, and evaluated
each proposal submitted. We now request permission to bind coverage based on the attached
Recommendations for FY'96 Insurance.
Bidders included two local agents (Dady Ins. and Evans, Ewan & Brady), two area
agents from Temple and Austin, two national brokerages (Sedgwick James and Arthur
Gallagher), and the Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool, known as TML-IRP.
Bid responses this year were extremely favorable, allowing the City to pay less money for more
and better insurance. The most significant improvements overall include:
• doubling limits of liability coverages from $1 milion to $2 million
• reducing the deductible on workers compensation from $5,000 to $0
• increasing airport hangarkeeper's liability from $50,000 to $1 million
• broadening the employment related practices liability coverage
• improving coverage and reducing deductible by $5,000 for Public Officials Liability
• reducing the deductible for mobile equipment from $10,000 to $250
• eliminating coverage disputes by consolidating certain lines of coverage
Even with all the increases in limits and reduced deductibles, our total estimated cost
($252,528) is still lower than what we are paying this year ($253,690). We are now very well
positioned for the additional growth we are experiencing.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
As stated in the bid specifications, we will now be on a three-year bid cycle: insurance
policies will be bound for FY'96, with the option of renewals for FY'97 and FY'98. The three-
year cycle enables us to receive better quotes from more insurers and maintain more continuity
in coverage.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
See attachment for specific cost of each line. Monies were budgeted in various funds
to cover these expenses.

Subject: Recommendations for FY'96 Insurance Coverage
Date: September 20, 1995
We have now completed our analysis of property/casualty insurance proposals for FY' 96.
Although most lines will remain with the current agent and insurer, I do recommend that
insurance carriers be changed in a couple cases, for reasons of cost, policy coverage, and service.
The lines that I recommend changing are listed below:

As you can see from the above chart, on two of these lines of insurance, my
recommendations will unfortunately have the effect of transferring business from a local agent
to non -local agents. Although we would like to "buy local" whenever possible, the
recommended companies submitted proposals for better insurance (higher limits, lower
deductibles, and better coverage) at a cheaper price than what the current insurers proposed.
In addition, you know that Marianne has had tremendous problems with National
Casualty regarding their unsatisfactory selection of legal counsel and poor litigation
management. After making independent inquiries, she is satisfied that the TML and National
Union coverages being recommended will be an improvement over the current national Casualty
policies.
I can provide further information on this issue if you wish.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
Consider declaring surplus equipment and authorizing staff to negotiate a contract for
auctioneer services.
ITEM SUMMARY
The attached list of surplus property has been deemed of no further use by the City
departments. The staff recommendation is to declare this list of equipment surplus and authorize
the staff to negotiate a contract with an auctioneer for the purpose of auctioning off the surplus.
The City of Georgetown Code of Ordinances states, under 4.28 Disposition of Excess
Property, that the City Council may declare any City property to be excess, as recommended by
the City Manager. The ordinance states that the City Council shall determine the method of disposal
of any surplus property. A widely accepted method for disposal of surplus property is by public
auction. The vast majority of public and private entities utilize auctions for surplus property disposal.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
none
FINANCIAL IMPACT (cost of item, fund and division name, budgeted amt.)
Previous years auctions have netted the City $8,100.00 in 1994 and $16,200.00 in 1993. The
staff anticipates revenues from this auction at about $5,000.00. Auctioneer fees usually are
approximately ten percent of gross sales.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No.
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Detailed Development Plan for Lake Aire Subdivision, Sections
One and Two; and Ratification of Variances to the Subdivision Regulations
ITEM SUMMARY: The Final Plat for Lake Aire Subdivision, Section One, was filed on April
25, 1988. The remainder of the property was an illegal lot under the Georgetown Subdivision
Regulations from the time the 1988 plat was recorded until December 17, 1993, when a Final
Plat was filed for Lake Aire Subdivision, Section Two. The City of Georgetown purchased the
property in Section One in 1992 and sold it to the owner of the remainder of the shopping center
in 1993. The submittal and approval of a detailed development plan (DDP) for both Sections
One and Two was a condition of the City's sale of its property. Approval of this DDP, together
with the earlier approval of the Section Two plat, will ensure that all tenants of the existing
properties are in conformance with the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations, and enable
the City to issue unconditional certificates of occupancy as new tenants occupy space at the
shopping center.
This DDP requires the consideration of several variances that are typical of existing
developments required to comply with the current site design standards. However, one of the
goals of requiring DDPs for existing developments is to evaluate where reasonable improvements
can be made to the property to bring it into greater conformance with the design standards
established by the ordinance. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation takes this
goal into account and achieves many improvements to the site.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: None.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The City used a portion of the proceeds from its sale to make the
public improvements required when the Section Two plat was approved. These include extending
the eight (8) inch water and wastewater lines along Dawn Drive, constructing Dawn Drive, and
installing a sidewalk on Williams Drive. The water line improvements include the installation
of fire hydrants to meet the Fire Code requirements.
COMMENTS: At their regular meeting of January 4, 1994, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the requested DDP for Lake Aire Subdivision,
Sections One and Two, consistent with the motion described in the staff report.
A revised DDP addressing the Technical Issues has been submitted and is included in the
Council packet. All other requirements of the Commission's recommendation for approval have
been fulfilled. This request has been delayed pending the submittal of a permanent parking
easement for Lot 3, Section Two, meeting the City Attorney's approval. That easement
document has been submitted at this time.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved. by the City Council, it will be
consistent with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.
ATTACHMENTS: Staff Report and revised DDP.

REQUEST: Detailed Development Plan of Lake Aire Subdivision, Section
One, a 1.99 acre tract, and Section Two, an 8.01 acre tract; and
variances to the Subdivision Regulations. Lake Aire
Subdivision, Section One is recorded in Cabinet J, Slide 88 of
the Official Plat Records and Lake Aire Subdivision, Section
Two is recorded in Volume 846, Page 510 of the Official Deed
Records of Williamson County, Texas.
FACTS:
Location: Located at 2415 Williams Drive. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: The site contains an existing shopping center.
Existing Zoning: C-1, Local Commercial District.
Surrounding Uses North: Westwood Plaza, platted undeveloped land (C-213)
and Zoning: South: Offices, residential, day care (RM-3 and C-1)
East: Vacant land (RP)
West: Williams Commercial Park, platted undeveloped land
(C-1)
Century Plan: The Century Plan designates this location as Intensity Level 5.
The existing development (approximately 74,500 square feet) is
within the allowable intensity limits. SEE EXHIBIT B
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project 11 DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 1
Proposed Use: No change in use is proposed.
Notification: 1. Notification forms with attached exhibits have been mailed to
property owners within 200 feet of the site;
2. Notice has been published in the Williamson County Sun; and
3. Notification signs have been posted on the property.
HISTORY: The Final Plat for Lake Aire Subdivision, Section One, was filed on
April 25, 1988. The remainder of the property has been an illegal lot
under the Georgetown Subdivision Regulations since the 1988 plat. The
City of Georgetown purchased the property in Section One in 1992 and
has recently sold it to the owner of the remainder of the shopping
center. On December 17, 1993, a Final Plat was filed for Lake Aire
Subdivision, Section Two, thereby creating legal lots of the entire
property in conformance with the requirements of the Subdivision
Regulations. The submittal and approval of a detailed development plan
for both Sections One and Two was a condition of the City's sale of its
property. The City will use a portion of the proceeds from its sale to
make the public improvements required when the Section Two plat was
approved. These include extending the eight (8) inch water and
wastewater lines down Dawn Drive, constructing Dawn Drive, and
installing a sidewalk on Williams Drive. The water line improvements
will include the installation of fire hydrants to meet the Fire Code
requirements.
ANALYSIS: The detailed development plan (DDP) has been prepared for both
Sections One and Two of the Lake Aire Subdivision. This, together
with the Section Two plat already filed, will ensure that all tenants of
the existing properties are in conformance with all requirements of the
Subdivision Regulations. The applicant has requested several variances
to the Subdivision Regulations for the DDP submitted. Most of these
variances are typical of existing developments that are required to
submit a DDP under the current ordinance. However, one of the goals
of requiring DDPs for existing developments is to evaluate where
reasonable improvements can be made to the property to bring it into
greater conformance with the design standards established by the
ordinance. The potential for achieving these improvements will be
evaluated as each variance request is described below.
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 2
Technical Issues: The following items must be addressed prior to City Council
consideration of this item:
1. The ten (10) foot PUE running along both sides of Dawn Drive
should be continued through Lots 1 and 2, Section One. Because these
additional easements will not be platted, a dedication instrument should
be submitted to ensure that they are filed for record with the County.
2. The structure on Lot 3, Section Two shows no parking. This
structure is used as a day care center. Based on the Zoning Ordinance
requirements, this center must provide six (6) parking spaces, at least
one (1) of which must be handicapped accessible. These should be
provided on a permanent, hard surface on Lot 3, or a shared use
agreement provided with the property owner to use parking spaces on
Lot 2, Section Two.
3. Section 27040 B.9. requires that the location and dimensions of
existing and proposed water, wastewater, and drainage improvements be
shown on the DDP. The City will be adding water and wastewater
lines in Dawn Drive. The applicant should work with the Division of
Community Owned Utilities to ensure that the proposed water and
wastewater lines along Dawn Drive are located on the DDP in the
proper location.
4. Section 27040 B.15. requires that sufficient information be provided
to demonstrate compliance with the watershed provisions of the
ordinance. Because no new development is proposed by this project,
and therefore run-off will not be increased, drainage improvements will
not be required. However, a baseline drainage study is required to
show the existing situation given the development on the lots included in
the DDP. This is exclusive of the improvements that will be made to
Dawn Drive by the City, for which the City will conduct a separate
drainage study.
5. Section 27040 B.16. requires proposed utility flow data to be
provided. As noted by the applicant, this can be drawn from existing
utility meters in the area.
6. A four (4) foot wide sidewalk must be shown on Williams Drive.
This is required on major arterials by Table 33030-A, Design Standards
for Streets, and will be constructed by the City as part of the sale
agreement. The applicant should, therefore, consult with the Division
of Community Owned Utilities regarding the location of the sidewalk
before identifying it on the DDP.
7. Section 33056 E. requires that four (4) loading areas (10 feet X 40
feet) be shown on the site. These can be located behind the primary
building or in parking aisles, but must be located "to insure adequate
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center
Project 11 DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP
September 16, 1995
Page 3
protection is afforded adjacent properties, especially residential
properties, from noise and other disruptive elements normally associated
with such facilities."
8. The complete dimensions, including height and sign face
dimensions, of the Pit Barbecue sign have not been shown. Although
not a requirement of the DDP submittal, a master signage plan will be
required for this property prior to the issuance of any further sign
permits.
9. If parking spaces exist in front of the building on Lot 1, Section
One, these should be shown on the DDP.
10. Note #8 should be revised to clarify that it refers to potential new
parking spaces to be provided on Lot 3, Section Two.
11. Revise Note #13 to add actual and allowed impervious cover
information for Lots 1 and 2, Section One. Also add the allowed
impervious cover limit (70 percent) to the data on Lots 1, 2, and 3,
Section Two. Finally, add information on building cover for each of
the lots included on the DDP.
12. Add a note to the DDP stating that variance approvals are based on
the current development and, as substantial redevelopment occurs on the
site the conditions for which the variances have been granted may be
reevaluated and improvements required.
Variances: The applicant has requested the following variances for the DDP.
Sidewalks: In addition to the sidewalks on Williams Drive, Table 33030-A requires
sidewalks on one side of collector streets. A variance is requested to
this requirement on Dawn Drive. There are no sidewalks along this
street to the north and south of the street segment that will be built as
part of the Section Two plat. Therefore, a variance to this requirement
may be reasonable.
Access: Several variances are requested regarding access to the site. Table
33030-A, Design Standards for Streets, establishes a 450 foot minimum
separation between driveways on major arterials (Williams Drive) and a
125 foot separation on collectors (Dawn Drive). None of the paved
driveways on Williams Drive or Dawn Drive meet these separation
requirements. Section 33042 allows a maximum driveway width of 30
feet for an undivided driveway. All of the driveways on Williams
Drive exceed this standard, ranging from 40 feet to 130 feet. The
driveway on the southeast corner of Lot 2, Section Two, also exceeds
this standard, at 42 feet. This driveway accesses the unimproved
portion of Dawn Drive and should be modified to meet the design
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project N DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AiR.DDP Page 4
standard when the City constructs Dawn Drive. Finally, Section 33044
establishes the required separation between driveways and intersections.
On major arterials, 400 feet is required, and on collectors 75 feet is
required. The actual distance between the driveway at the Pit Barbecue
and River Bend Drive is approximately 129 feet. On Dawn Drive,
approximately 30 feet separates the driveways onto Lots 1 and 2,
Section Two, from River Bend Drive.
Over time, improvements to these conditions can be made. For
example, when Dawn Drive is constructed, the driveways closest to
River Bend Drive on Lots 1 and 2 (at the northeast corner), Section
Two, should be closed. This will eliminate the substandard separation
distance to the intersection and between driveways. Together with the
elimination of the parking in the front yard recommended below,
circulation to the parking spaces at the northeast corner of Lot 2 will be
maintained. As described above, the unimproved driveway access to
the southeast corner of Lot 2 should be corrected to comply with the
design standards at the time Dawn Drive is built. Further, while it may
be appropriate to allow the four (4) driveways along Williams Drive to
remain, improvements should be made to improve safety. The 130 foot
driveway in front of the 7-11 store is not safe, especially with the
gasoline pump located in the front yard setback. At such time as any
permits are issued for this portion of the property, the driveway should
be modified to meet the maximum width requirement. Similarly, the
driveway in front of the Pit Barbecue should be reduced to meet the
design standards for width at such time as any permits are issued for
this part of the site. Finally, any significant redevelopment of the
shopping center (including Lot 1, Section One, and Lot 2, Section Two)
should initiate a reevaluation of all the access issues described above in
order to bring the property into compliance with the City's design
standards.
Parking: Section 33051 A. requires that all off-street parking spaces be provided
outside the required front building setbacks. Existing parking on the
northeast and southeast (frontage on Dawn Drive) and northwest
(frontage on Williams Drive) corners of Lot 2, Section Two, encroaches
into the front setbacks. This involves ten (10) parking spaces. Given
the fact that this DDP provides 51 parking spaces more than required,
these should be eliminated. SEE EXHIBIT C
Table 33057 establishes the required dimensions for parking spaces
based on the parking lot design. For parking spaces designed at a 75 to
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 5
90 degree angle, such as those at the Lake Aire Shopping Center,
parking spaces are required to be 9.5 feet X 20 feet in size. The
existing parking spaces at the shopping center are 9 feet X 18 feet in
size.
Setbacks: Three (3) existing structures encroach into the platted setbacks as
required by Table 34020, Design Standards for Lots. On Lot 3, Section
Two, the structure encroaches approximately six (6) feet into the 20
foot platted rear building setback. On Lot 2, Section Two, the building
on the south side of the lot encroaches a maximum of ten (10) feet into
the platted 20 foot side building setback, and the gasoline pump at the
7-11 store (on the southwest corner) encroaches approximately 9.5 feet
into the 25 foot platted front building setback. Given that these are
existing encroachments, a variance to this requirement may be
appropriate. However, if any substantial redevelopment occurs on these
lots, these existing encroachments should be removed. This is
especially important as it applies to the gasoline pump given the
inherent risks involved in the use and its location along a major arterial.
SEE EXHIBIT C
Impervious/ Table 34020, Design Standards for Lots, establishes a maximum
Building Cover: impervious cover of 70 percent and a maximum building cover of 20
percent for the Commercial, Retail and Service, land use. Lot 1,
Section One, and Lots 1 and 3, Section Two, exceed the impervious
cover limit and Lot 1, Section One, also exceeds the maximum building
cover limit. The approval of the Section Two plat included a variance
for the existing impervious cover on Lots 1 and 2. Given this fact, and
the fact that the this condition is the result of long established
development, a variance to these standards may be appropriate.
Section 60070.B of the Subdivision Regulations states:
"In granting approval of a request for variance the Commission shall
make findings that:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
sought; and
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center
September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 6
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
Other Issues: In 1987 a site plan was approved by the City for a small hamburger
stand, known as Boss Burgers, on the concrete pad located between the
7-11 store and the bank. This site plan established the parking, access,
and landscaping requirements for the project. On the subject DDP, the
applicant has chosen not to include that previous DDP, thereby
effectively voiding its approval. Therefore, any future development on
the existing pad will require a revision to the subject DDP.
Two additional driveways are used for access to the Lake Aire
Shopping Center. These are located off Golden Oaks Drive and access
the south portion of Lot 2, Section Two. The applicant was unable to
locate any easements or other documentation to establish authority for
these access points. They have been indicated on the DDP, but may
have to be closed at any time subject to documentation from adjacent
property owners that they should not exist.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the detailed development plan for Lake Aire Subdivision,
Sections One and Two, provided the Technical Issues are addressed
prior to City Council consideration; and approval of the following
variances, subject to the required findings of fact:
1. Table 33057 thereby allowing the parking spaces to be smaller than
standard;
2. Table 34020 to allow the existing encroachments to remain within
platted building lines;
3. Table 33030-A to allow substandard driveway separations on
Williams Drive and to waive the requirement for a sidewalk on one side
of Dawn Drive;
4. Section 33042 to allow substandard driveway widths along Williams
Drive;
5. Section 33044 to allow substandard spacing between the driveway
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center
September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 7
on Williams Drive and the intersection with River Bend Drive; and
6. Table 34020 to allow greater impervious cover on Lot 1, Section
One, and Lots 1 and 2, Section Two; and greater building cover on Lot
1, Section One.
These variances shall be in effect until such time as substantial
redevelopment occurs on the subject property, at which time the
conditions under which these variances have been granted may be
reevaluated and improvements required. Any permits issued for those
portions of the site that contain the 7-11 store (southwest corner of Lot
2, Section Two) and the Pit Barbecue (northwest corner of Lot 2,
Section Two) shall require a reevaluation of the variances related to
building setbacks and access.
Denial of the variance to Section 33051 A. thereby requiring the
parking located in front yards on Williams Drive and Dawn Drive to be
removed; and to Table 33030-A and Sections 33042 and 33044
regarding the driveway layout on Dawn Drive, thereby requiring that
these conditions be improved at the time Dawn Drive is constructed.
P & Z ACTION: At their regular meeting of January 4, 1994, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to approve the requested DDP for Lake Aire
Subdivision, Sections One and Two, provided the Technical Issues are
addressed prior to City Council consideration; and approval of the
following variances, subject to the required findings of fact: 1) Table
33057 thereby allowing the parking spaces to be smaller than standard;
2) Table 34020 to allow the existing encroachments to remain within
platted building lines; 3) Table 33030-A to allow substandard driveway
separations on Williams Drive and to waive the requirement for a
sidewalk on one side of Dawn Drive; 4) Section 33042 to allow
substandard driveway widths along Williams Drive; 5) Section 33044 to
allow substandard spacing between the driveway on Williams Drive and
the intersection with River Bend Drive; and 6) Table 34020 to allow
greater impervious cover on Lot 1, Section One and Lots 1 and 2,
Section Two, and greater building cover on Lot 1, Section One. These
variances shall be in effect until such time as substantial redevelopment
occurs on the subject property, at which time the conditions under
which these variances have been granted may be reevaluated and
improvements required. Any permits issued for a change in use or
redevelopment of those portions of the site that contain the 7-11 store
(southwest corner of Lot 2, Section Two) and the Pit Barbecue
(northwest corner of Lot 2, Section Two) shall require a reevaluation of
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project N DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-ATR.DDP Page 8
the variances related to building setbacks and access. Denial of the
variance to Section 33051 A. thereby requiring the parking located in
front yards on Williams Drive and Dawn Drive to be removed; and to
Table 33030-A and Sections 33042 and 33044 regarding the driveway
layout on Dawn Drive, thereby requiring that these conditions be
improved at the time Dawn Drive is constructed. Deferral of Technical
Issue #4 regarding a drainage study, the timing of which can be worked
out by staff.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No.
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Preliminary Plat of 27.51 acres in the John Sutherland Survey,
to be known as Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5; and Variances to the Subdivision Regulations
ITEM SUMMARY: The subject Preliminary Plat is largely consistent with the Revised
Concept Plan for Fountainwood Estates approved in 1993. The plat proposes 21 large, single
family residential lots. The following variances are requested to permit development of the
subdivision as proposed: 1) to Section 33030 K. to allow reverse curves in Nicole Way that do
not achieve the minimum center line curve radii required. In addition, these curves do not meet
the requirement established by . Section 33030 L. for reverse curves to be separated by a
minimum tangent of 100 feet. The COU Division recommends that the reverse curves be
straightened to one (1) smooth curve before a variance to the standard can be supported. This
will reduce to one (1) the number of curves that do not meet the standard, and will eliminate the
issue of tangent distance. 2) To Section 36050 B. to allow Lots. 12 and 13 to have less than the
minimum width of 120 feet required for lots designed to the rural subdivision standards. Both
lots achieve the minimum width at the front setback line and both are larger than the minimum
lot size requirement of one (1) acre.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The applicant requested the variance to Section 33030 K. in
,a
order to preserve several trees within the right-of-way that range from 4 to 14 inches in diameter.
Recognizing the need to balance safety with the desire to preserve the trees, the Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended that the reverse curves be straightened to one (1) curve as
proposed by City staff, unless staff is satisfied that the trees can be preserved without creating
a safety hazard. Staff met with the applicant's agent on September 18 to review the location of
the trees in relation to the street alignment. Staff and the applicant agreed that one of the curves
would be straightened and the tangent distance lengthened to meet the standards. Also, "slow"
signs will be erected at each end of the curves that remain. The revision to the street alignment
is reflected on the attached plat.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At their regular meeting of September 5, 1995, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the Preliminary Plat of Fountainwood Estates,
Phase 5, provided the Technical Issues are addressed prior to City Council consideration, and
approval of the requested variances to Section 33030 K. provided the reverse curves are
straightened to one (1) curve unless City staff is satisfied that trees can be preserved without
creating a safety hazard, and to Section 36050 B., thereby approving the design of Lots 12 and
13, after making the required findings of fact.
The attached plat has been revised to address the Technical Issues as required by the
Commission.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be
consistent with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, and will require that
the reverse curves be straightened to one (1) curve, unless stated otherwise.

REQUEST: Preliminary Plat of 27.51 acres in the John Sutherland Survey,
located on Nicole Way as recorded in Deed Records in Volume
2190, Page 380 of Williamson County, Texas; and variances to
the Subdivision Regulations.
FACTS:
Location: Located on Nicole Way. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: Undeveloped land.
Existing Zoning: This tract is located outside the City limits so zoning does not
apply.
Proposed Use: 21 single family lots.
Surrounding Uses: North: Fountainwood Estates, Phase 2, single family
residential (out of City)
South: Fountainwood Estates, Phase 4-B, single family
residential (out of City)
East: U.S. Corp of Engineers, park land (out of City)
West: Fountainwood Estates, Phase 4B (out of City)
Preliminary Plat - Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5
PP#-95-07 / File: FTNW-5.PP
September 16, 1995
Page 1
Century Plan: The Century Plan Development Plan designates this location as Intensity
Level 1. The proposed use is within allowable development limits for
this acreage. SEE EXHIBIT B
Notification: The notification requirements have been completed.
HISTORY: A Revised Concept Plan for. Fountainwood Estates was approved in July
1993. It indicates that Phase 5 will include 65.1 acres of land,
including 35 residential lots and 6.7 acres of park land. Subsequent to
the approval of the Revised Concept Plan, the City approved a plat for
Phase 2A and a Development Agreement that stipulates that the 2.0
acres in Phase 2A will be deeded to the City as a park land tract if an
alternate parcel has not been deeded to the City within five (5) years of
the Agreement. The Agreement was signed in December 1993. The
alternate park land parcel is to be a minimum of 15 acres in size and
has been proposed as the land identified on the Revised Concept Plan as
being located along a drainage area between Phases 5 and 7. Given the
location of the proposed park land (SEE EXHIBIT A), it is required to
have several access points adjacent to public streets. The subject plat
encompasses one (1) of those public access points, located between Lots
16 and 17.
ANALYSIS: The subject Preliminary Plat is largely consistent with the approved
Revised Concept Plan for Fountainwood Estates. SEE EXHIBIT C It
is consistent in that it includes large lots fronting on Nicole Way. It
differs in total acres, number of lots, and the lack of park land
dedication. The fact that the park land is not dedicated in this phase is
probably not significant given the recordation of Phase 2A and the
Development Agreement as described above. There are several
Technical Items that need to be addressed, and a variance is requested.
The subject plat is evaluated according to the Rural Subdivision Design
Standards established by Section 36000. A complete drainage plan,
with calculations, must be submitted with the construction plans for this
plat.
Variances: Section 33030 K. Local Street Curves
This section establishes a minimum center line curve radius of 250 feet
for local streets. Nothing in the rural subdivision standards, or any
other section of the ordinance, exempts rural subdivisions from meeting
the design standards established by Section 33000. The three (3)
reverse curves in Nicole Way at Lots 8, 9, 10, 14, and 15 do not
achieve the minimum center line curve radii required. They range from
Preliminary Plat - Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5 September 16, 1995
PP#-95-07 / File: FTNW-S.PP Page 2
106 to 224 feet. In addition, they do not meet the requirement
established by Section 33030 L., which requires reverse curves to be
separated by a minimum tangent of 100 feet. These curves have no
separation between them. Therefore, the Community Owned Utilities
Division recommends that these reverse curves be straightened to one
smooth curve before a variance to the standard can be supported. This
will reduce to one (1) the number of curves that do not meet the
standard, and will eliminate the issue of tangent distance. Two (2)
previous phases of the Fountainwood Estates development have
requested and received variances to Sections 33030 K. and 33030 L.
Phase 2 received a variance to Section 33030 L. for tangent distances
that were only ten (10) feet less than the required 100 feet. Phases 4A
and 4B were approved with variances to Section 33030 K. for curve
radii. In the case of Phase 4A, only one (1) curve of 200 feet radius
was involved. In the case of Phase 4B, revisions to the plat were made
to limit the variance request to three (3) curves ranging from 150 feet to
210 feet radius.
Section 36050 B. Lot Width
This section requires lots designed to the rural subdivision standards to
have a minimum width at the front property line of 120 feet. The width
of Lots 12 and 13 at their front property lines is 117.86 feet and 72.89
feet, respectively. However, both lots achieve the 120 foot minimum
width at the front setback line. Lot 12 is greater than 140 feet at the
front setback line, and Lot 13 is 124.8 feet at the front setback line.
All lots in this proposed subdivision have 50 foot front yard setbacks,
significantly larger that the 25 foot setback required by the regulations.
Both subject lots exceed the minimum lot size requirement of one (1)
acre. For these reasons, it may be reasonable to approve this variance.
After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting, and reading the documentation provided by the
applicant and the staff's recommendation, the Commission makes the
following findings of fact as required by Section 60070.13 of the
Subdivision Regulations:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
sought; and
Preliminary Plat - Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5
September 16, 1995
PP#-95-07 / File: FTNW-5.PP Page 3
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
The applicant's documentation for these variances is attached.
Technical Issues: The following Technical Issues must be addressed prior to consideration
of this plat by the City Council. If they are not addressed by
September 29, 1995, or if the applicant does not concur with a delay to
the City Council's consideration of the plat to allow the Technical
Issues to be addressed, the plat will be forwarded to the Council with a
recommendation for denial.
1. Provide a letter requesting annexation. Where Section 24040 C.
indicates that this letter is required "if applicable", it exempts only those
subdivisions that are located within the City limits.
2. Note on the plat that the area left unplatted between Lots 16 and 17
will be part of the public park land to be dedicated to the City. The
property owner has recently discussed the possibility of dedicating a
different parcel of land to the City in lieu of this land. Therefore, if the
land within the subject plat does not become part of the public park, it
must be replatted to be incorporated into the subject plat.
3. The subject subdivision will receive water service from the
Chisholm Trail Water District. Section 35012 requires that all
approved subdivisions provide the required fire flows. In order to
document that this standard can be met when the water supplier is not
the City, engineering data and an engineer's certification that the fire
flows can be met must be submitted. This data must be provided.
4. Provide sufficient documentation to ensure that the street cross -slope
follows the natural slope of the land where said slope is toward the
inside of a horizontal curve or is within a tangent section. If the street
cross -slope is away from the inside of a horizontal curve it will not he.

DOCUMENTATION OF BASIS FOR REQUESTED VARIANCE
3/2/95
Applicant: Max Allen-Fountainwood Estates Phase 5
This request is for a variance from the literal enforcement of Section(s)
of the Subdivision Regulations.
36050B
Give a brief description of the variance requested: Lots 12 and 13 have less than
the required minimum width at
the front property
line of
120 feet.
These lots front onn-a circular
cul-de-sac. Lot
12 has a
frontage
of 117. 86 feet and lot 13 has
72. 89 feet on the
property
line;
however, Lot 13 is 124.80 feet
wide- at the front
setback
line. Th..e
lots contain 1.4 and 1.1 acres respectively.
You have requested a variance to the design standards of the Subdivision Regulations. In order
to be able to recommend and approve such a variance, Section 60070 B. of the Regulations,
requires that the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council must be able to "ensure that
the variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions, a literal
enforcement of the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship." The Commission and
Council are directed to meet these requirements by making specific findings of fact. In order
to assist the Commission and Council in conducting their deliberations regarding your requested
variance, please complete this form to document how this request will impact the issues described
below. These issues relate directly to the eight (8) findings of fact that must be cited by the
Commission and Council when recommending approval of any variance. You may attach an
additional sheet, or submit this information in the form of a letter.
1. In what manner will the public convenience and welfare be substantially served?
The lot line between lots 12 and 13 has been located to coincide
with a natural drainage way. The lots on either side of 12 and
13 have been designed to a good building site and a 'logi'cal lot
configuration.
2. Will the appropriate use of surrounding property be substantially or permanently impaired or
diminished in any manner? Provide reasons why you believe your answer to be supportable.
No. Frontage on cul-de-sacs is normally less than that
required on straight streets. Setbacks prevent structures
from being placed adversely to adjacent lots.
3. What are the hardships involved? How were those hardships created? How are those
hardships different from those affecting the rest of the public faced with the enforcement of this
same provision? Note that the Commission and Council cannot approve a variance for which the
hardship claimed is solely of an economic nature.
Nature created the location of the drainageway, and the
topography of the land. The subdivision ordinance creates
requirements that -do not always match land configurations.
4. If the requested variance if approved, will it confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of similar and surrounding property?
Provide reasons why you believe your answer to be supportable.
No. Similiar variances have been granted in previous phases.
5. How is the public interest affected?
It is not affected.
6. List the special conditions that affect this property and justify the approval of the variance.
Cul-de-sacs are a normal tool used to provide access to areas
where streets cannot be reasonably extended.
7. How will the spirit of the ordinance be observed if this request is granted?
The lot area and required setbacks are provided. The
adjacent Greenbelt Park will not be crossed by another street.
The park will have approsLimately 4,000 feet of uninterrupted
park .
8. How will substantial justice be done if this request is granted?
This subdivision will be able to use the same standards for
frontage on cul-de-sacs as previous phases.
DOCUMENTATION OF BASIS FOR REQUESTED VARIANCE
Date: _August 15, 1995Applicant: Caprock Business Forms, Inc, & Max Allen
This request is for a variance from the literal enforcement of Section(s) 3303 K & L
of the Subdivision Regulations.
Give a brief description of the variance requested: To permit curve radius of less than
250 feet and tangent distances between reverse curves of 0 feet in order to
prevent the destruction of large Oak and Elm trees.
You have requested a variance to the design standards of the Subdivision Regulations. In order
to be able to recommend and approve such a variance, Section 60070 B. of the Regufations,
requires that the Planning and Zoning Commission Ad City Council must be able to "ensure that
the variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions, a literal
enforcement of the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship." The Commission and
Council are directed to meet these requirements by making specific findings of fact. In order
to assist the Commission and Council in conducting their deliberations regarding your requested
variance, please complete this form to document how this request will impact the issues described
below. These issues relate directly to the eight (S) findings of fact that must be cited by the
Commission and Council when recommending approval of any variance. You may attach an
additional sheet, or submit this information in the form of a letter.
1. In what .manner will the public convenience and welfare be substantially served?
The enhancement of the homes and environment by the preservation of large
Oak and Elm trees that have survived for hundreds of years.
2. Will the appropriate use of surrounding property be substantially or permanently impaired or
diminished in any manner? Provide reasons why you believe your answer to be supportable.
The appropriate use of the adjacent and sprrounding property will be
substantially and permanently enhanced by saving these trees.
3. What are the hardships involved? How were those hardships created? How are those
hardships different from those affecting the rest of the public faced with the enforcement of this
same provision? Note that the Commission and Council cannot approve a variance for which the
hardship claimed is solely of an economic nature.
The purpose for saving these trees is the preservation of these works of
nature and their benefit to the environment. The alignment picked will save
most of th6 trees. 'To move the street will destroy more trees. The standards
have been waived in Phases 2,3,4A and 4B to save trees. The public -safety
will not bq hindered since a driver will be able to see the areas of the
street that automobiles will use throughout the -curves length.. The street
is short Frith onlyenty on lots u Jn t for access. It ends in
intersections on eat ehd. eIt is ona� �9�U feet long. It does not
encourage speed.
i
4. If the requested variance if approved, will it confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of similar and surrounding property?
Provide reasons. why you believe your answer to be supportable.
No. Other streets have had similiar variances.
5. How is the public interest affected?
The public interest isbenefited by the preservation of the trees involved.
Auto and pedestrian sight lines are maintained.
6. List the special conditions that affect this property and justify the approval of the variance.
The benefits of large native oak and elm trees far outweigh the benefits of
destruction. Tree lined curvealinear streets have been proven to slow
and benefit the quality of life.
7. How will the spirit of the ordinance be observed if this request is granted?
The primary purpose of this street is to provide access to the adjacent lots
It is not a "through" street. It does not convey traffic from one part of
the City to another. The preeevation of these trees is a better landscaping
method than any replacement planting.
8. How will substantial justice be done .if'this request is granted?
See No. 7

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No.
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of approval of a Detailed Development Plan for City of Georgetown, Block
14, Lot 1 and Part of Lot 8; and approval of variances to the Subdivision Regulations; located at 302
South Austin Avenue.
ITEM SUMMARY: The proposed detailed development plan is for a restaurant in a building which
was formerly used as an antique store. When a site changes use it is eligible for the reduced DDP
requirements outlined in Section 16010 A.7.b. of the Subdivision Regulations, as adopted in January of
this year. Generally, those lesser requirements permit sites to be occupied provided at least one (1) of
the non -conforming aspects of it is made conforming. In this case, the applicant chose to provide the
required amount of parking. In order to provide the required amount of parking on the site, however,
several variances are necessary.
The lot's narrow width permits only a parking lot with a one-way driveway aisle, since such a
design has a narrower aisle width and the parking spaces are angled. In order to provide a one-way aisle
there must be entrance only and exit only driveways: The proposed driveways are approximately 71 feet
apart, whereas the standard requires 150 feet separation. The Police Services Division has expressed
some concern over the reduction in the separation of the driveways coupled with the already dangerous
intersection of Third Street and Austin Avenue. It is believed that a restaurant at the location will
increase the number of vehicles using the intersection daily.
Because of the narrow lot, the proposed parking area encroaches into the side and rear building
setback lines. A variance is requested to permit this.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: It is staff's belief that the intent of the lesser DDP requirements,
adopted earlier this year, is to allow eligible, non -conforming sites to be occupied and comply with the
ordinance without the need for additional variances. This request was accepted due to staffs uncertainty
of Council's intent when adopting this amendment. Therefore, staff requests direction from the City
Council on the intent of this regulation regarding sites which require additional variances.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0
to recommend approval of a Detailed Development Plan for the City of Georgetown, Block 14, Lot 1
and part of Lot 8, located at 302 South Austin Avenue provided the Technical Issues are addressed prior
to City Council consideration. Recommend approval of variances to Table 33030-A to permit the two
(2) proposed driveways to be closer than 150 feet provided they maintain the proposed one-way design,
and to Section 34020 G.1. to permit the proposed encroachments of the parking lot into the building
setback lines on the north and south sides, after making the required findings of fact.
A Detailed Development Plan addressing the Technical Issues is attached.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be consistent with
the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.

REQUEST: Detailed Development Plan for City of Georgetown, Block 14,
Lot 1 and part of Lot 8, to be known as El Charrito Restaurant,
as recorded in Volume 1591, Page 126 of the Official Deed
Records of Williamson County, Texas; and variances to the
Subdivision Regulations.
Location: Located at the 302 South Austin Avenue. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: Vacant retail structure.
Existing Zoning: C-2A, Commercial First Height. The part of Lot 8 that is
included in this property was originally zoned R-S, but since it is
under one ownership the entire property is considered zoned C-
2A according to Section 12.104 of the Zoning Ordinance and an
interpretation of the Board of Adjustment.

Century Plan: The Century Plan -Development Plan designates this location as
Intensity Level 4. The proposed use exceeds the square footage
permitted by the Century Plan standards for restaurants. SEE
EXHIBIT B
Notification: The notification requirements have been completed.
ANALYSIS: The proposal is to open a restaurant at this location which
formerly housed an antique store. Due to the site's change in
use, it is eligible for the new, lesser detailed development plan
standard. The new DDP standard, as specified in Section 16010
7.b. of the Subdivision Regulations, applies to any new activity
on a site where there is a change in use or the building has been
vacant for a period of two (2) years or longer. Sites not eligible
for this new standard are subject to the previous DDP standard
which includes all site design standards.
Detailed Development Plan
DDP 95- /File: 302AUSTN.DDP
CM:CS
Generally, the new DDP standard allows applicants of such sites
described above to select one aspect of the site that does not
conform to the current regulations and bring it into conformance.
All other nonconforming aspects may remain without the need
for a variance. The purpose of this new DDP standard is to
enable developed sites to conform to the regulations by making
incremental improvements to the property. The intention was
that these properties would be able to come into conformance
without the need for variances. The City staff accepted this
request for variances due to the uncertainty of the regulation
regarding whether or not sites taking advantage of the lesser
DDP requirements are eligible for variances. It is likely that
there will be more cases using this standard in the future. s=
Therefore, the staff requests direction from the Commission
regarding the original intent when the new lesser DDP standard
was adopted.
In this case, the applicant chooses to provide parking spaces to
conform to the standard as specified in the Subdivision
September 1, 1995
Page 2
Detailed Development Plan
DDP 95- /File: 302AUSTN.DDP
CM:CS
Regulations. Practically, the only other aspect which may have
been chosen was landscaping. Staff agrees with the choice of
providing the required amount of parking spaces since the
proposed use is a restaurant and has the potential for attracting
many customers at peak hours, and therefore, needing many off-
street parking spaces. Given this site's proximity to Austin
Avenue, it is desirable to eliminate the possibility for on -street
parking. It is also possible to bring the site into conformance
with the landscaping regulations, but doing so will not address
the need for parking at the site. Currently, there is no off-street
parking on the site. The proposed use requires ten (10) spaces.
The applicant proposes to provide 13 spaces; however, there is
not sufficient room on the lot to provide even ten (10) spaces
with associated driveways and aisles and conform to all setbacks.
All of the proposed parking is located on the site and behind the
building. SEE EXHIBIT C The DDP proposes an entry only
and exit only system of two (2) driveways serving the parking
lot that has a one-way aisle with 13 parking spaces at a 60
degree angle.
Intensity Level 4 of the Century Plan allows restaurants on a
0.24 acre site, such as this, to be up to 948 square feet. SEE
EXHIBIT B The existing building is 1,020 feet. The previous
use, the antique store, conformed with the Century Plan since it
was allowed up to 3,948 square feet. Therefore, it is the change
in use that renders the proposal nonconforming. The reason for
the difference in square footage allowances is due to restaurants'
tendencies to consume and discharge more water and wastewater
than general retail uses. In this case, the limiting factor is
wastewater.
Typically, an amendment to the Century Plan is processed to
change the Intensity Level at a location where more square
footage is desired. In order to change the Intensity Level,
improvements to either the water, wastewater or transportation
system are required to accommodate the level of service. The
Community Owned Utilities Division has determined that both
September 1, 1995
Page 3
the water and wastewater lines serving the subject site are
adequate to provide service to a restaurant. Therefore, there
should be no required improvements to the systems to permit a
Century Plan amendment.
Additionally, the Building Inspections Department indicates that
the subject building may not be structurally sound to
accommodate the proposed use and alterations may be required.
Building plans have not been filed with that office yet, so it is
uncertain exactly what structural alterations are either necessary
are proposed. Along with the building plans, the Building
Inspections Department may require an engineer's certification
that the building is structurally sound to accommodate the
proposed use. This may necessitate additional actions on the
part of the applicant since Sections 4.102 and 4.104 of the
Zoning Ordinance states that non -conforming structures may not
be reconstructed or structurally altered unless made to conform.
Variance: Table 33030-A Driveway Separation
The two (2) proposed driveways are approximately 71 feet apart.
The standard driveway separation for commercial uses on local
streets is 150 feet. There are currently no driveways into this
site; however, customers of the previous use of the site parked
their vehicles in head -in fashion along Third Street. Third Street
extends westward approximately three (3) blocks serving a
primarily residential area and the Williamson County Court
House Annex. Third Street is not the only east -west street to
intersect with Austin Avenue in this area. Both Second Street to
the north and Fourth through Eleventh Streets to the south
intersect with it. The Police Services Division is concerned with
the addition of a restaurant at this location and the possible effect
it will have on the Third Street/Austin Avenue intersection. Due, --
to the slope of Austin Avenue at this location, the intersection
has a substantial amount of vehicular accidents. The restaurant
will likely generate more trips than the previous use. Vehicles
attempting a left turn onto Austin Avenue from Third Street may
block the proposed entrance drvieway, therefore backing up
vehicles attempting to turn into the restaurant parking lot. The

proposed entrance driveway is 64 feet from Austin Avenue. The
minimum distance required is 60 feet.
Section 34020 G.I. Encroachments Into Building Lines
Since the lot was existing prior to May 10, 1977, it is exempt
from the current platting requirements and therefore is not
subject to the standards associated with platting. One of those
standards which is associated with platting is building setback
lines. Therefore, the building setback lines as established by the
Zoning Ordinance apply to this site. SEE EXHIBIT D
The proposed parking lot encroaches into the ten (10) foot
building line along the north property line adjacent to Third
Street. The five (5) spaces adjacent to that side actually extend
as far as the property line. The spaces on the south side also
encroach into the building setback line on that side. There is a
seven (7) foot building setback line where the subject lot is
adjacent to R-S zoned property and a four (4) foot building
setback line where it is adjacent to C-2A zoned property. The
proposed parking area encroaches to within one (1) foot of the
property line. Both the encroachment into the northern and
southern building setback lines are proposed in order to provide
60 degree parking spaces with standard depth and a driveway
aisle with standard width. The DDP proposes the minimum
width of parking area necessary to conform to these standard
dimensions.
After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting, and reading the documentation
provided by the applicant and the staff's recommendation, the
Commission makes the following findings of fact as required by
Section 60070.13 of the Subdivision Regulations.
S
1.The public convenience and welfare will be substantially
served; and
2.The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3.The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
September 1, 1995

sought; and
4.The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right
or privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5.The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6.The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8.In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
TECHNICAL ISSUES: The following Technical Issue must be addressed prior to
consideration of this DDP by the City Council.
1. The water line that is parallel to Third Street Shall be labeled
as a six (6) inch line rather than a 3/4 inch line.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

We awn the office building at 310-312/Austin Ave. which adjoins the subject property to
be re -zoned. We are concerned about the adequate, convenient parking to be made available
for this cafe. The small size of the lot, and the extreme slope of the property has present(
a problem for this property in the past, in so far as their parking facilities are concerned.
We are concerned about the fact that they will be unable to provide adequate, convenient
parking for 13 vehicles as shown in the plat. We rais his objection, because we do not
want our paved parking lot (which adjoins this property on the suth) to yl!d for their
parking.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No. lid
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of approval of a variance to the Subdivision Regulations for a 2.0 acre
tract in the Clement Stubblefield Survey to be known as Good Luck Subdivision.
ITEM SUMMARY: In June of this year, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City
Council approved a short form final plat for this subdivision. A condition of approval was that
a water line be extended to the site in conformance with the City's standards for extending
utilities. When the construction plans were reviewed by the City staff, the applicant was told of
the need to extend the water line to the most western point of the subdivision and that the water
line must also be extended to the SH29 right-of-way. The applicant requests a variance in order
to provide the water line extension only as far as the beginning of the subdivision boundary.
Such a variance was given in one (1) case recently, where it was determined that
topographical conditions existed that did not permit the extension of a wastewater line. Such
conditions do not exist in this case. In that same case, extension of a water line was postponed
through a development agreement until the street under which the line will be located is also
extended.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Planning and Zoning Commission questioned the need
to require the extension of the water line to the western boundary and to be extended to the SH29
right-of-way. The applicant requests that the water line only be extended as far as the point at
which it enters the subject property. The Commission's recommendation is that the water line
be extended to the northwest corner and not be required to extend to the SH29 right-of-way.
This is 233 feet shorter than what was initially required and 309 feet longer than what the
applicant requested.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
5-0 to recommend approval of the requested variance to Section 41030, thereby requiring the
water line to be extended to terminate at the northwest corner of the subject property, after
making the required findings of fact.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be
consistent with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.

REQUEST: Variance to the Subdivision Regulations for a 2.0 acre tract in
the Clement Stubblefield Survey to be known as Good Luck
Subdivision, as recorded in Volume 2724, Page 371 of the
Official Deed Records of Williamson County, Texas.
FACTS:
Location: Located on State Highway 29 West. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: Undeveloped land.
Existing Zoning: A rezoning of this tract from RS to C-1 is in progress.
Proposed Use: A convenience store is proposed.
Surrounding Uses North: Citizens Memorial Garden Cemetery (out of City)
and Zoning: South: Unplatted agricultural land (RS)
East: Vacant office building (RS)
West: San Gabriel Storage (RS)
Century Plan: The Century Plan -Development Plan designates this location as

Notification: The notification process has been completed.
Variance - Good Luck Subdivision
September 1, 1995
VR 9S-19/File: GOODLUCKNAR Page 1
CM:CS
HISTORY: This tract was annexed into the City on November 18, 1986. The Good
Luck Subdivision was approved by the Planning and Zoning
Commission on June 6, 1995, and by the City Council on June 27,
1995. A rezoning request was approved by Commission and Council at
the same time. The second reading of the rezoning will be withheld
until the Good Luck Subdivision plat is recorded.
ANALYSIS: This request is for a variance to Section 41030, which requires that all
improvements be designed and installed in a manner that creates a
logical and continuous system of improvements to serve adjacent
properties. The applicant requests this variance to eliminate the
requirement that the water line required as a condition of approval of
the Good Luck Subdivision plat be extended to the subdivision's western
boundary. The applicant proposes to extend the line from County Road
265 to the point where it enters the Good Luck Subdivision. SEE
EXHIBIT B This point is approximately 326 feet from the nearest
portion of the SH29 right-of-way and approximately 452 feet from the
point to which the line is required to be extended. If the line was
extended to the point as requested by the applicant, adjacent properties
would be required to extend the line over the Good Luck Subdivision in
order to bring service to their property at the time they are platted.
This is similar to what the applicant was required to do in this case;
however, the only alternative available to the applicant was to extend
another water line approximately 1,400 feet along SH29.
In one recent case, the staff has recommended, and the Commission and
Council approved, variances to the requirement that utilities be extended
to the perimeter of a subdivision. Such a variance was granted to Inner
Loop Commercial Park, Section One. In that case, a variance was
given to eliminate the requirement that a water line be extended;
however, it is only a temporary variance. The line must be extended
when the street, under which the water line will be located is extended.
Further, the property in the area of the street and water line extensions s
was under the same ownership as Inner Loop Commercial Park, Section
One. That subdivision also received a variance to the requirement for
extension of a wastewater line. The applicant submitted documentation
that the topography of the area prevented the extension of the
wastewater line beyond its proposed terminus. Neither of these
situations are apparent in this case.

Variances: After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting, and reading the documentation provided by the
applicant and the staff's recommendation, the Commission makes the
following findings of fact as required by Section 60070. B of the
Subdivision Regulations:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
sought; and
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Denial of the requested variance to Section 41030, thereby requiring the
water line to be extended as originally approved.
P & Z ACTION: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the requested
variance to Section 41030, thereby requiring the water line to be
extended to terminate at the northwest corner of the subject
property, after making the required findings of fact.

From: The Good Luck Subdivision Hwy 29 - Ben and Alicia Johnson
We have been asked by the City of Georgetown to install a fire hydrant on the front of
our property. We agree that a fire hydrant is essential, but it is the placement of that fire
hydrant that is in question.
Of course, the public can only benefit from a fire hydrant being placed on our property.
Neighboring businesses and residents would have much better fire protection, and
could possibly benefit from lower insurance rates.
The hardship involved is the distance we are from a public water supply. Since the city
ran the public water line down County Road 265 instead of State Highway 29, to pipe
water to our property, we must run a water line across the back of an adjoining prop-
erty to the back corner of our property. To place a fire hydrant on State Highway 29,
which is the front of our property would require an additional 340 feet of water line.
Approval of this variance would allow us some flexibility to still run the water line and still
provide fire hydrant protection and accessibility to ourselves and our neighbors by placing
the fire hydrant closer to the actual building rather than the State Highway 29. We feel
that approval of this variance will ultimately benefit all parties involved

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBIECT
A Resolution expressing official intent to reimburse costs of certain street capital improvements projects not to
exceed S1,370,000 with proceeds from bonds that will be issued at a later time.
ITEM SUMMARY
The City transportation improvements included in the 1995/96 Annual Operating Plan included three projects;
Quail Valley, 15th Street, and Railroad Street; to be financed with general obligation certificates of obligation.
In order to complete the projects as scheduled, preliminary engineering and other work needs to begin.
Staff recommends passing the attached bond reimbursement resolution to allow work to begin now. Staff
recommends waiting until January/February 1996 to actually issue the debt. Construction bids will have been
received at that time allowing for a more accurate bond issue amount.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
none
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City has cash balances available to begin paying for these projects without hindering the City's ability to
meet other obligations over the next few months. Approval of this resolution and commencement of these
projects will commit the City to a future bond issue because the cash balances will be required for operating and
capital costs late in 1995/96.

WHEREAS, the City of Georgetown, has received an application for a license to encroach

WHEREAS, after hearing the application of Gregory G. Hall to encroach into the side

facts:
1. That there are no utilities which would be interfered with by the utilization of the

2. That there are no utilities which would interfere with the utilization of the

3. That the proposed sidewalks intrude into the public utility easements to such a
degree that it is not economically feasible to remove the part of the structure

this property is being put is not likely to change within the foreseeable future and
is similar to other uses in the neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, the City Council after hearing the application and finding the specific facts

Authorization for Mayor to sign Release of Special Assessment Lien for Southwestern
University property
ITEM SUMMARY
In 1923 the City of Georgetown levied assessments for paving in and around the
downtown area. An ordinance was filed in the Deed Records listing all property owners and a
requirement for payment within the next 4 years.
Southwestern University recently purchased the property and has requested a release of
the assessment. Due to the fact that the City does not have financial records dating back to
1923, we are unable to decipher whether a payment was made or not.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of granting a certificate of occupancy to allow a model home to
operate at 1000 Woodview Drive
ITEM SUMMARY: At the August 1, 1995, meeting of the Sign Review Board, the Board
considered and denied a request for a variance to the sign standards for a model home sign to
be located on a residential lot. During the discussion, the Board expressed concern about the
location of a model home on the lot that was the subject of the sign variance. This lot is located
at 1000 Woodview Drive in the Thousand Oaks Subdivision. The property is zoned RS,
Residential Single Family. The property to the east, along Leander Road is zoned C-1, Local
Commercial, and RM-1, Multifamily zoning exists north of Leander Road. Further, this lot is
the only single family residential lot in the Thousand Oaks Subdivision that has frontage on
Leander Road, a major arterial. The property owner, Buffington Homes, requested their permit
on May 9, 1995, and notified the City's Building Inspections Department at that time that they
intended to use this property as a model home for a period of 12 to 18 months The Building
Inspections Department has worked with this home builder during the construction of the home
with the understanding that it will operate as a model home under the policy that is currently in
place. At this time, the home has had its final inspection and received a temporary certificate
of occupancy to operate as a model home.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Residents of the Thousand Oaks Subdivision have submitted
a petition asking that the model home not be permitted to open and operate at 1000 Woodview
Drive. An exhibit has been prepared which illustrates the location of the petition signatories.
The petition and exhibit are part of the workshop agenda item.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: Staff presented this issue to the Planning and Zoning Commission at their
meeting of September 5, 1995. The Commission chose not to make a recommendation regarding
the operation of the model home at 1000 Woodview Drive. The City Council at their September
12, 1995, meeting, voted to suspend the approval for the operation of the model home at 1000
Woodview Drive until it could consider the matter at a workshop session at the current meeting.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: To permit the model home at 1000 Woodview to operate for
a period of 12 months. No other model homes will be permitted within the City limits until the
Zoning Ordinance revision is approved by the City Council.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No. Ic
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Second Reading of an ordinance to rezone Stonehedge Subdivision, Sections One and
Two from A, Agricultural to RS, Residential Single Family.
ITEM SUMMARY: This is a portion of the Churchill Farms currently under consideration for
annexation by the City Council. The area comprises 302 single family residential lots.
Approximately one-half (1/2) of these lots are built upon, and if the current rate of new home
construction in the subdivision continues, it should be built out very soon.
Section 1.205 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that all property annexed into the City
of Georgetown be assigned the A, Agricultural zoning district unless otherwise requested and
approved by the City. As described above, this property is platted for single family residential
use and is nearly one-half built out for that purpose. It does not seem reasonable, therefore, to
annex this property into a non -conforming stat«s. Further, there are a large number of different
property owners in the area, which would likely result in a piecemeal rezoning of the area, if it
occurred at all. For those reasons, on May 9, 1995, the City Council recommended that this
rezoning be initiated in accordance with Section 14.1 of the Zoning Ordinance.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: None.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
COMMENTS: At its June 6, 1995, meeting the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0
to recommend approval of a rezoning of Stonehedge Subdivision, Sections One and Two from
A, Agricultural to RS, Residential Single Family.
At its June 27, 1995, meeting, the City Couilcll voted to table this item until the July 25,
1995, meeting.
At its July 25, 1995, meeting, the City Council voted to table this item until the August
221 1995, meeting.
At its August 22, 1995, meeting the City Council approved this ordinance for first reading
and waived the rezoning fees.
At the owner's request, the City Council tabled this item for second reading at its
September 12, 1995, meeting, pending the outcome of a Board of Adjustment request.
At its September 19, 1995, meeting, the Board of Adjustment voted 5-0 to approve a
variance request to permit up to 45 percent impervious coverage on all lots of Stonehedge,
Sections One and Two.

Rezoning - Stonehedge Sub., Sec. 1 and 2
September 6, 1995
RZ 95-11/Fi1e:STNHGI&2.REZ Page 1
HISTORY: The Concept Plan for Stonehedge Subdivision was reviewed and
accepted by the City in May, 1984. At that time, Concept Plans
were considered accepted rather than approved. Sections One
and Two were recorded in October, 1985. Section Three was
recorded in February, 1986.
ANALYSIS: This is a portion of the Churchill Farms currently under
consideration for annexation by the City Council. The area
comprises 302 single family residential lots. Approximately one-
half (1/2) of these lots are built upon, and if the current rate of
new home construction in the subdivision continues, it should be
built out very soon.
Section 1.205 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that all property
annexed into the City of Georgetown be assigned the A,
Agricultural zoning district unless otherwise requested and
approved by the City. As described above, this property is
platted for single family residential use and is nearly one-half
built out for that purpose. It does not seem reasonable,
therefore, to annex this property into a non -conforming status.
Further, there are a large number of different property owners in
the area, which would likely result in a piecemeal rezoning of
the area, if it occurred at all. For those reasons, the City
initiated this rezoning in accordance with Section 14.1 of the
Zoning Ordinance.
STAFF RECONEWENDATION:
Approval of a rezoning of Stonehedge Subdivision, Sections One
and Two from A, Agricultural to RS, Residential Single Family.
P & Z ACTION: At its June 6, 1995, meeting the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to approve a rezoning of Stonehedge
Subdivision, Sections One and Two from A, Agricultural to RS,
Residential Single Family.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of approval of variances to the Design Standards of the Subdivision Regulations
for Park -view Estates, Section 5, Block A, Lot 13; located at North Austin Avenue and FM971.
ITEM SUMMARY: There is a nursing home and an assisted care facility proposed at the subject
location. Prior to filing a detailed development plan for the site, the applicant requests variances to
several design standards, He states that the ability to secure the requested variances has a great impact
on the decision to proceed.
The first requested variance is to permit access to both Austin Avenue and FM971. Since these
two (2) streets are of equal classification (major arterial) it is required that access be taken from only one
(1) of them. The proposal is to have two (2) driveways onto FM971 and one (1) driveway onto Austin
Avenue. The Austin Avenue driveway is located to the extreme north of the property. It is proposed to
be used jointly with the adjacent property, and its use is primarily for service vehicles. The two (2)
proposed driveways onto FM971 are proposed primarily for resident and visitor use.
All three (3) of the proposed driveways are closer to an intersection than permitted by the
standards. The driveway on Austin Avenue is approximately 320 feet from the intersection with FM971,-
the western driveway on FM971 is approximately 320 feet from the intersection with Austin Avenue and
the eastern driveway on FM971 is approximately 255 feet from the intersection with Gann Street. All
are required to be separated by 400 feet from the intersections. Also, the two (2) driveways onto FM971
are closer to each other than the required 450 foot separation. Given the large arc of the curb at the
Austin Avenue/FM971 intersection, the driveway separation to this intersection may be reasonable.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: None.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0 to
recommend approval of the requested variance to Sections 34020 F.2.9 thereby allowing Parkview Estates,
Section 5, Block A, Lot 13, to have one (1) regularly operating driveway on each adjacent street, and to
Section 33044, thereby allowing the driveway onto Austin Avenue to be located as proposed provided an
agreement with the adjacent property owner is recorded at the County stating that this will be a shared
driveway. The Commission recommended denial of the requested variances to Section 33044 and Table
33030-A for two (2) regularly operating driveways onto FM971, thereby allowing one (1) driveway onto
FM971 that complies with the standards for spacing between intersections and driveways, after making
the required findings of fact. A second driveway onto FM971 will be allowed but will be designed in such
a way that will ensure that it is only to be used in an emergency situation.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be consistent with
the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.

Variance - Parkview Estates, Section Five September 1, 1995
VR#95-18 / File: PRKVW5.VAR Page 1
Notification: The notification requirements have been completed.
HISTORY: The Parkview Estates, Section Five, plat was recorded on May 20,
1985.
ANALYSIS: This request is to consider several variances to the design standards of
the Subdivision Regulations for a proposed nursing home and an
assisted living facility. Although a partial site plan has been provided
by the applicant, this is not being considered as a detailed development
plan. Instead, the applicant is seeking a decision on the variances prior
to deciding whether or not to proceed with development of the property.
The applicant indicates that ability to secure the requested variances
would have a great effect on the decision to proceed.
The proposed design of the site has two (2) separate buildings housing
each of the proposed uses. SEE EXHIBIT B For consideration of the
variance request, the applicant provided a preliminary copy of the
proposed design of the site. According to the preliminary design,
access is provided by two (2) driveways onto FM971 and one (1)
driveway onto Austin Avenue. The Austin Avenue driveway is
primarily designed for service vehicle access and the others are
designed for visitor access. The applicant states that it is desirable to
keep these two (2) different types of traffic separate.
VARIANCES: Section 34020 F.2. Corner Lot Access
Corner lots having access to streets of the same classification shall take
access from either street and have only one (1) access point. A total of
three (3) driveways are requested for this development. The request for
driveways onto each street is based on the desire to separate the service
and visitor traffic. The proposed driveway onto Austin Avenue is
located as far from the intersection as possible and is proposed for
shared use with the property to the north. The owner of the adjacent
property indicates that he is willing to share the driveway as it is
probably the only practical access point on his lot due to topographical
constraints. In order to guarantee that future owners of the lot are
aware of the access restriction, a deed restriction shall be recorded to
document it. Given the proposal to use a shared driveway on Austin
Avenue, and the length of the property's frontage on FM971, it may be
reasonable to grant a variance to Section 34020 F.2. to allow one (1)
driveway onto each road. However, as described below, the proposed
Variance - Parkview Estates, Section Five September 1, 1995
VR#95-18 / File: PRKVW5.VAR Page 2
driveways require variances to the spacing requirements as well. For
this reason, the requested three (3) driveways may be excessive for this
property.
Section 33044 Spacing Between Driveways and Intersections
The proposed driveways onto FM971 are less than the required 400 feet
from the intersections with Austin Avenue and Gann Street. The west
driveway is separated from the intersection with Austin Avenue by
approximately 320 feet. The separation is measured from the corner of
the right-of-way line to the edge of the proposed driveway, consistent
with the standard method of measurement for driveway separation.
This lot may have a special consideration, however. The right-of-way
line for FM971 does not actually intersect with the right-of-way line for
Austin Avenue. Instead, there is a third line that forms an
approximately 45 degree angle with each of the two (2) right-of-way
lines to provide enough right-of-way for a large radius arc of pavement
for vehicles turning north on Austin Avenue from FM971. For the
purposes of considering a variance, it may be proper to measure from
the edge of the pavement of the arc. Using this method, the separation
between the driveway and the intersection is approximately 460 feet,
which provides the needed separation between the intersection and the
driveway.
The proposed driveway onto Austin Avenue is located approximately
320 feet from the intersection with FM971 (measured to the edge of the
driveway). Using the method of measurement described above, the
edge of the subject driveway is 410 feet from the edge of pavement of
the Austin Avenue/ FM971 intersection. As noted above, this driveway
location is at the farthest point possible from the intersection on this lot.
It is also proposed to be a shared driveway with the adjacent lot. There
are two (2) additional lots between FM971 and Parkview Drive that
have frontage on Austin Avenue. When those lots develop, however, s=
one will be required to take access from Parkview Drive because it is a
corner lot with frontage on streets of unequal classification and the other
will take access from Austin Avenue. Therefore, there will be two (2)
driveways onto Austin Avenue between FM971 and Parkview Drive.
This is the same result as if the subject site did not have a driveway
onto Austin Avenue and the site immediately to its north had its own
driveway. For these reasons, it may be appropriate to grant a variance
to allow this driveway as proposed.
Variance - Parkview Estates, Section Five
September 1, 1995
VR#95-18 / File: PRKVW5.VAR Page 3
The east driveway onto FM971 is separated by approximately 255 feet
from the intersection at Gann Street. Using the method of measurement
described in the previous paragraph of measuring from the edge of
pavement may add only about ten (10) feet to the separation. At this
time, Gann Street carries only the traffic generated from the single
family residential development in Parkview Estates. However, it will
likely also be a major access point onto FM971 for Parkview Estates,
Section Two, commonly known as Parkview Place, a multifamily
development with 176 proposed units. Given this potential additional
traffic, and the current narrow design of FM971, it may not be
appropriate to permit a driveway closer than 400 feet to Gann Street.
The subject lot has 930 feet of frontage on FM971. Given this length
of frontage, it is possible to locate one (1) driveway from the subject
property onto FM971 that meets the standard for separation from both
intersections. In fact, the property owner has approximately 130 feet in
which to locate a driveway that will meet the separation standards.

The two (2) proposed driveways onto FM971 are approximately 300
feet apart, whereas the required separation is 450 feet. Given the
length of frontage on FM971, it is not possible to locate two (2)
driveways and meet the standards for separation between driveways and
between intersections. As stated above, the traffic volumes using Gann
Street may become much higher than they currently are, and the current
design of FM971 is not adequate for high traffic volumes. As a result
of these factors, it is not recommended that two (2) driveways be
permitted onto FM971.
After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting, and reading the documentation provided by the
applicant and the staff's recommendation, the Commission makes the
following findings of fact as required by Section 60070. B of the t
Subdivision Regulations:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is

sought; and
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
The applicant's documentation to support this variance is attached.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
After making the required findings of fact, approval of the requested
variance to Sections 34020 F.2., thereby allowing Parkview Estates,
Section 5, Block A, Lot 13, to have one (1) driveway on each adjacent
street, and to Section 33044, thereby allowing the driveway onto Austin
Avenue to be located as proposed provided an agreement with the
adjacent property owner is recorded at the County stating that this will
be a shared driveway. Denial of the requested variances to Section
33044 and Table 33030-A for the driveways onto FM971, thereby
allowing one (1) driveway onto FM971 that complies with the standards
for spacing between intersections and driveways.
P & Z ACTION: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the requested
variance to Sections 34020 F.2., thereby allowing Parkview
Estates, Section 5, Block A, Lot 13, to have one (1) regularly
operating driveway on each adjacent street, and to Section 33044,
thereby allowing the driveway onto Austin Avenue to be located as
proposed provided an agreement with the adjacent property owner
is recorded at the County stating that this will be a shared
driveway. The Commission recommended denial of the requested
variances to Section 33044 and Table 33030-A for two (2)
regularly operating driveways onto FM971, thereby allowing one
(1) driveway onto FM971 that complies with the standards for
spacing between intersections and driveways, after making the
required findings of fact. A second driveway onto FM971 will be

allowed but will be designed in such a way that will ensure that it
is only to be used in an emergency situation.

Re: Georgetown Nursing Center and Assisted Living Center
Dear Mr. Barry:
r rle)h.;nc (512) 335-2881
Fax (512) 335-0828
On behalf of our client, DLC, Inc. we offer the following information for your review. We
are requesting a variance for additional curb cuts to allow entry on to the proposed
property. Additionally enclosed is information regarding DLC, Inc.'s parking needs. We
are also requesting a variance in the number of parking spaces required. The
documentation listed below and included in this package will more clearly define our
specific requests and goals.
Variance Request 1: Exhibit F indicates a total of three curb cuts on the
proposed property. We recognize that this exceeds the
requirements of the City of Georgetown, however, it is
critical to the facilities to have more than one curb cut.
Exhibit A, DLC, Inc.'s letter outlines their concerns as they
relate to this issue. Additionally, there are life safety issues
that are difficult to resolve with one curb cut. In a phone
conversation with John Romberg with the Texas
Department of Human Services he indicated in Exhibit B
that in an emergency the egress path away from the
property is also the same path for emergency vehicles to
enter the property if one driveway is utilized. We believe
that more than one curb cut appropriately allows the egress
of approximately 150 elderly residents. We are requesting a
variance to allow three curb cuts indicated in Exhibit F.
City of Georgetown Variance Request
page 2
Variance Request 2: As a result of property dimensions, as well as the need for
three curb cuts, it has become evident that two of the curb
cuts indicated in Exhibit F are closer to the intersection of
Highway 81 and FM 971 than the City of Georgetown
allows per Figure 33044A of the Subdivision Regulations.
Please notice the curb cuts are dimensionally close to the
required 400'. We are requesting a variance to allow
entrances to the property to as indicated in Exhibit F.
Variance Request 3: There are restrictions on the minimum allowable distance
between driveways based on Figure 33044A of the City of
Georgetown Subdivision Regulations. As stated in variance
request 2 there are limitations of the property that force the
driveways along FM 971 to be closer to each other than
allowed. Once again every effort has been made to come as
close as feasibly possible to the City's regulations. We
request a variance for the distances between driveways as
indicated in Exhibit F to be allowed.
Variance Request 4: Additionally, the Subdivision Regulations require one
curb cut to be along FM 971. As you will notice in Exhibit
F we are indicating a service drive off of Highway 81. The
purpose of the entrance is two -fold- One to allow delivery
vehicles and employees the ability to enter the property in
an area that is appropriate to the function of the facility.
Two is to insure that delivery vehicles are never located in
an area that will restrict the entry and exit of emergency
vehicles (i.e. ambulances). Again DLC, Inc.'s letter in
Exhibit A clearly discusses the concerns of this issue. We
request a variance to allow a service entrance along
Highway 81.
Variance Request 5: Table 33052 of the City of Georgetown Subdivision
Regulations requires one parking space per each 250 square
feet. For the proposed Nursing Center and Assisted Living
Center that would require a total of approximately 200
parking spaces. Our experience with similar facilities
indicates that 200 parking spaces is in appropriate. At
Gracy Woods Nursing Center in Austin, Texas there are a
total of 41 parking spaces for nursing center. Exhibit D
includes recent photographs of the parking lots. As you will
see the parking lots are in no way near capacity. In fact, the
only time the lots fill to near capacity is during a staff shift
change of on holidays. Additionally, we designed a campus
City of Georgetown Variance Request
page 3
in Pflugerville almost identical to the proposed Georgetown
project. The Pflugerville campus, which includes a Nursing
Center and Assisted Living Center, has a total of 90 parking
spaces. Exhibit E includes photographs indicating the typical
capacity of the parking lots. Exhibit F indicates 92
proposed parking spaces for Georgetown. We believe this
is adequate. Additionally, Exhibits A, B and C confirm our
belief that 92 spaces is appropriate. We request a variance
to allow fewer parking spaces than City of Georgetown
regulations require.
We have made every effort to clearly define our requests and make you aware of the
issues and the impact they have on this project. We look forward to working with the
City of Georgetown. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact
me.
Sincerely,
William A. Davies V, AIA, CSI

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
An Ordinance amending the 1994/95 Annual Operating Plan Element (budget) to offset variances in various fund
budgets for increases in expenditures that are tied to service requests or revenue collection rates, to properly
account for grant expenditures, and to reclass expenditures between funds. Second Reading.
ITEM SUMMARY
Expenditure items within the Annual Operating Plan are based on service demands or revenue collections. As
a result of the improving economy in the Georgetown area, the expenditures of the Sanitation Fund are greater
than anticipated. This increase includes contract expenses and transfers to the General Fund totaling $14,000,
offset by increases in revenue. There is no effect on the working capital of the fund.
A budget amendment is needed in the Airport Fund to properly account for a federal grant received. This budget
amendment will increase Buildings & Improvements by $62,000 and be offset by $62,000 of grant revenue.
There is no net effect on the working capital of the fund.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The City Charter requires that a majority plus one must approve an amendment to the approved budget.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The budget amendment will be incorporated with the previously approved budget.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
Second Reading of an ordinance amending the fuel flowage fee rates charged at the
Georgetown Municipal Airport.
ITEM SUMMARY
The fuel flowage fee ordinance was last amended on August 22, 1983. The rate was
increased from $0.02 to $0.06 per gallon. Because of the ever-increasing cost to maintain the
Airport, staff is recommending the fee be increased to $0.10 cents per gallon, effective
October 1, 1995.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The fuel flowage fee increase will affect only Gantt Aviation and Georgetown Jet Center.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Based upon the number of gallons purchased by Gantt Aviation and Georgetown Jet Center
in the past, this rate change will increase Airport revenues approximately $3,300.00 per year.
The cost to Gantt Aviation and Georgetown Jet Center is approximately $1,650.00 each per
year.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
Consideration of scheduling a special Council Meeting for the week of October 16 and setting an earlier
start time for the regular Council Meeting on October 24
ITEM SLTNEVLkRY
Triple S Plastics is proceeding with their plans to finance the expansion of their plastic injection molding
operation into the Advanced Custom Molders building on Westinghouse Road through the issuance of
industrial revenue bonds. In order to maintain their schedule, it is necessary that you have a special meeting
the week of October 16. This need for the special meeting coincides with our need to lighten the agenda
for October 24 to allow councilmembers to leave following the meeting to attend the TML Conference in
Dallas.
Therefore, I would request the adjustment of the October meeting schedule in order to call a special meeting
for October 17 and include not only the Triple S industrial revenue bonds related action, but also include
other agenda items so that the meeting will become a regular -type of meeting.
The October 24 agenda would then begin with the regular meeting portion at approximately 5:30 p.m. to
6:00 p.m. and conclude with a 7:00 p.m. public hearing concerning impact fees. At the completion of the
public hearing, the meeting would be adjourned, thereby allowing councilmembers to leave for Dallas.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
Consider award of the annual bid for gasoline and diesel fuel to Triple S Petroleum in the
estimated annual amount of $79,000.00 for unleaded gasoline and $19,000.00 for diesel fuel.
ITEM SUMMARY
Bids were received for the purchase of gasoline and diesel fuel for a one year period, with
an option to renew at the end of the term for an additional one year period if mutually agreed upon
by all parties. The staff is recommending that this bid be awarded to the overall low bidder, Triple
S Petroleum of Austin.
This bid was written, solicited, and evaluated through a cooperative effort of Williamson
County, Georgetown ISD, the City of Round Rock, Round Rock ISD, and the City of Georgetown.
Each entity provided input for the specifications which would address their unique situations. The
City of Georgetown Purchasing Department staff then took the information and incorporated it into
a comprehensive specification that met all of the participating entities requirements. After bids were
received representatives from each entity met to discuss the criteria to be used for recommending
an award. As a result of this meeting it is recommended the fuel bid be awarded to Triple S
Petroleum as the overall low bidder. Each entity will be responsible for the purchase of their fuel
from Triple S as well as the resolution of any disputes. Additionally there is a clause that allows any
other entity wishing to participate in this bid the right to do so after their governing body approves
a cooperative purchase agreement.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
To my knowledge this is the first time that these governmental entities have participated
together in a cooperative purchase. We are currently in the process of forming a County wide
cooperative purchasing group that will explore future cooperative ventures with all governmental
entities in Williamson County, not only to obtain more favorable pricing but also to reduce the
associated staff and bid advertising costs.
FINANCIAL IMPACT (cost of item, fund- and division name, budgeted amt.)
Total estimated amount of this bid is $98,000.00. Funds were budgeted for this expenditure
in each department's fuel and oil account.

Award bid for all lines of property and casualty insurance for FY'96 in the estimated amount of
$2527440
ITEM SUMMARY
With the assistance of an insurance consultant, City staff prepared bid proposals on all
lines of property/casualty insurance, received bids from eight brokers/agents, and evaluated
each proposal submitted. We now request permission to bind coverage based on the attached
Recommendations for FY'96 Insurance.
Bidders included two local agents (Dady Ins. and Evans, Ewan & Brady), two area
agents from Temple and Austin, two national brokerages (Sedgwick James and Arthur
Gallagher), and the Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool, known as TML-IRP.
Bid responses this year were extremely favorable, allowing the City to pay less money for more
and better insurance. The most significant improvements overall include:
• doubling limits of liability coverages from $1 milion to $2 million
• reducing the deductible on workers compensation from $5,000 to $0
• increasing airport hangarkeeper's liability from $50,000 to $1 million
• broadening the employment related practices liability coverage
• improving coverage and reducing deductible by $5,000 for Public Officials Liability
• reducing the deductible for mobile equipment from $10,000 to $250
• eliminating coverage disputes by consolidating certain lines of coverage
Even with all the increases in limits and reduced deductibles, our total estimated cost
($252,528) is still lower than what we are paying this year ($253,690). We are now very well
positioned for the additional growth we are experiencing.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
As stated in the bid specifications, we will now be on a three-year bid cycle: insurance
policies will be bound for FY'96, with the option of renewals for FY'97 and FY'98. The three-
year cycle enables us to receive better quotes from more insurers and maintain more continuity
in coverage.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
See attachment for specific cost of each line. Monies were budgeted in various funds
to cover these expenses.

MEMO
To: Bob Hart, City %Manager
From: Elizabeth GQE!5uector of Information Resources
Subject: Recommendations for FY'96 Insurance Coverage
Date: September 20, 1995
We have now completed our analysis of property/casualty insurance proposals for FY'96.
Although most lines will remain with the current agent and insurer, I do recommend that
insurance carriers be changed in a couple cases, for reasons of cost, policy coverage, and service.
The lines that I recommend changing are listed below:

As you can see from the above chart, on two of these lines of insurance, my
recommendations will unfortunately have the effect of transferring business from a local agent
to non -local agents. Although we would like to "buy local" whenever possible, the
recommended companies submitted proposals for better insurance (higher limits, lower
deductibles, and better coverage) at a cheaper price than what the current insurers proposed.
In addition, you know that Marianne has had tremendous problems with National
Casualty regarding their unsatisfactory selection of legal counsel and poor litigation
management. After making independent inquiries, she is satisfied that the TML and National
Union coverages being recommended will be an improvement over the current national Casualty
policies.
I can provide further information on this issue if you wish.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
Consider declaring surplus equipment and authorizing staff to negotiate a contract for
auctioneer services.
ITEM SUMMARY
The attached list of surplus property has been deemed of no further use by the City
departments. The staff recommendation is to declare this list of equipment surplus and authorize
the staff to negotiate a contract with an auctioneer for the purpose of auctioning off the surplus.
The City of Georgetown Code of Ordinances states, under 4.28 Disposition of Excess
Property, that the City Council may declare any City property to be excess, as recommended by
the City Manager. The ordinance states that the City Council shall determine the method of disposal
of any surplus property. A widely accepted method for disposal of surplus property is by public
auction. The vast majority of public and private entities utilize auctions for surplus property disposal.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
none
FINANCIAL IMPACT (cost of item, fund and division name, budgeted amt.)
Previous years auctions have netted the City $8,100.00 in 1994 and $16,200.00 in 1993. The
staff anticipates revenues from this auction at about $5,000.00. Auctioneer fees usually are
approximately ten percent of gross sales.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No.
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Detailed Development Plan for Lake Aire Subdivision, Sections
One and Two; and Ratification of Variances to the Subdivision Regulations
ITEM SUMMARY: The Final Plat for Lake Aire Subdivision, Section One, was filed on April
25, 1988. The remainder of the property was an illegal lot under the Georgetown Subdivision
Regulations from the time the 1988 plat was recorded until December 17, 1993, when a Final
Plat was filed for Lake Aire Subdivision, Section Two. The City of Georgetown purchased the
property in Section One in 1992 and sold it to the owner of the remainder of the shopping center
in 1993. The submittal and approval of a detailed development plan (DDP) for both Sections
One and Two was a condition of the City's sale of its property. Approval of this DDP, together
with the earlier approval of the Section Two plat, will ensure that all tenants of the existing
properties are in conformance with the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations, and enable
the City to issue unconditional certificates of occupancy as new tenants occupy space at the
shopping center.
This DDP requires the consideration of several variances that are typical of existing
developments required to comply with the current site design standards. However, one of the
goals of requiring DDPs for existing developments is to evaluate where reasonable improvements
can be made to the property to bring it into greater conformance with the design standards
established by the ordinance. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation takes this
goal into account and achieves many improvements to the site.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: None.
FINANCIAL MPACT: The City used a portion of the proceeds from its sale to make the
public improvements required when the Section Two plat was approved. These include extending
the eight (8) inch water and wastewater lines along Dawn Drive, constructing Dawn Drive, and
installing a sidewalk on Williams Drive. The water line improvements include the installation
of fire hydrants to meet the Fire Code requirements.
COMMENTS: At their regular meeting of January 4, 1994, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the requested DDP for Lake Aire Subdivision,
Sections One and Two, consistent with the motion described in the staff report.
A revised DDP addressing the Technical Issues has been submitted and is included in the
Council packet. All other requirements of the Commission's recommendation for approval have
been fulfilled. This request has been delayed pending the submittal of a permanent parking
easement for Lot 3, Section Two, meeting the City Attorney's approval. That easement
document has been submitted at this time.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved. by the City Council, it will be
consistent with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.
ATTACHMENTS: Staff Report and revised DDP.

REQUEST: Detailed Development Plan of Lake Aire Subdivision, Section
One, a 1.99 acre tract, and Section Two, an 8.01 acre tract; and
variances to the Subdivision Regulations. Lake Aire
Subdivision, Section One is recorded in Cabinet J, Slide 88 of
the Official Plat Records and Lake Aire Subdivision, Section
Two is recorded in Volume 846, Page 510 of the Official Deed
Records of Williamson County, Texas.
FACTS:
Location: Located at 2415 Williams Drive. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: The site contains an existing shopping center.
Existing Zoning: C-1, Local Commercial District.
Surrounding Uses North: Westwood Plaza, platted undeveloped land (C-213)
and Zoning: South: Offices, residential, day care (RM-3 and C-1)
East: Vacant land (RP)
West: Williams Commercial Park, platted undeveloped land
(C-1)
Century Plan: The Century Plan designates this location as Intensity Level 5.
The existing development (approximately 74,500 square feet) is
within the allowable intensity limits. SEE EXHIBIT B
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project // DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 1
Proposed Use: No change in use is proposed.
Notification: 1. Notification forms with attached exhibits have been mailed to
property owners within 200 feet of the site;
2. Notice has been published in the Williamson County Sun; and
3. Notification signs have been posted on the property.
HISTORY: The Final Plat for Lake Aire Subdivision, Section One, was filed on
April 25, 1988. The remainder of the property has been an illegal lot
under the Georgetown Subdivision Regulations since the 1988 plat. The
City of Georgetown purchased the property in Section One in 1992 and
has recently sold it to the owner of the remainder of the shopping
center. On December 17, 1993, a Final Plat was filed for Lake Aire
Subdivision, Section Two, thereby creating legal lots of the entire
property in conformance with the requirements of the Subdivision
Regulations. The submittal and approval of a detailed development plan
for both Sections One and Two was a condition of the City's sale of its
property. The City will use a portion of the proceeds from its sale to
make the public improvements required when the Section Two plat was
approved. These include extending the eight (8) inch water and
wastewater lines down Dawn Drive, constructing Dawn Drive, and
installing a sidewalk on Williams Drive. The water line improvements
will include the installation of fire hydrants to meet the Fire Code
requirements.
ANALYSIS: The detailed development plan (DDP) has been prepared for both
Sections One and Two of the Lake Aire Subdivision. This, together
with the Section Two plat already filed, will ensure that all tenants of
the existing properties are in conformance with all requirements of the
Subdivision Regulations. The applicant has requested several variances
to the Subdivision Regulations for the DDP submitted. Most of these
variances are typical of existing developments that are required to
submit a DDP under the current ordinance. However, one of the goals
of requiring DDPs for existing developments is to evaluate where
reasonable improvements can be made to the property to bring it into
greater conformance with the design standards established by the
ordinance. The potential for achieving these improvements will be
evaluated as each variance request is described below.
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AiR.DDP Page 2
Technical Issues: The following items must be addressed prior to City Council
consideration of this item:
1. The ten (10) foot PUE running along both sides of Dawn Drive
should be continued through Lots 1 and 2, Section One. Because these
additional easements will not be platted, a dedication instrument should
be submitted to ensure that they are filed for record with the County.
2. The structure on Lot 3, Section Two shows no parking. This
structure is used as a day care center. Based on the Zoning Ordinance
requirements, this center must provide six (6) parking spaces, at least
one (1) of which must be handicapped accessible. These should be
provided on a permanent, hard surface on Lot 3, or a shared use
agreement provided with the property owner to use parking spaces on
Lot 2, Section Two.
3. Section 27040 B.9. requires that the location and dimensions of
existing and proposed water, wastewater, and drainage improvements be
shown on the DDP. The City will be adding water and wastewater
lines in Dawn Drive. The applicant should work with the Division of
Community Owned Utilities to ensure that the proposed water and
wastewater lines along Dawn Drive are located on the DDP in the
proper location.
4. Section 27040 B.15. requires that sufficient information be provided
to demonstrate compliance with the watershed provisions of the
ordinance. Because no new development is proposed by this project,
and therefore run-off will not be increased, drainage improvements will
not be required. However, a baseline drainage study is required to
show the existing situation given the development on the lots included in
the DDP. This is exclusive of the improvements that will be made to
Dawn Drive by the City, for which the City will conduct a separate
drainage study.
5. Section 27040 B.16. requires proposed utility flow data to be
provided. As noted by the applicant, this can be drawn from existing
utility meters in the area.
6. A four (4) foot wide sidewalk must be shown on Williams Drive.
This is required on major arterials by Table 33030-A, Design Standards
for Streets, and will be constructed by the City as part of the sale
agreement. The applicant should, therefore, consult with the Division
of Community Owned Utilities regarding the location of the sidewalk
before identifying it on the DDP.
7. Section 33056 E. requires that four (4) loading areas (10 feet X 40
feet) be shown on the site. These can be located behind the primary
building or in parking aisles, but must be located "to insure adequate
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center
September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 3
protection is afforded adjacent properties, especially residential
properties, from noise and other disruptive elements normally associated
with such facilities."
8. The complete dimensions, including height and sign face
dimensions, of the Pit Barbecue sign have not been shown. Although
not a requirement of the DDP submittal, a master signage plan will be
required for this property prior to the issuance of any further sign
permits.
9. If parking spaces exist in front of the building on Lot 1, Section
One, these should be shown on the DDP.
10. Note #8 should be revised to clarify that it refers to potential new
parking spaces to be provided on Lot 3, Section Two.
11. Revise Note #13 to add actual and allowed impervious cover
information for Lots 1 and 2, Section One. Also add the allowed
impervious cover limit (70 percent) to the data on Lots 1, 2, and 3,
Section Two. Finally, add information on building cover for each of
the lots included on the DDP.
12. Add a note to the DDP stating that variance approvals are based on
the current development and, as substantial redevelopment occurs on the
site the conditions for which the variances have been granted may be
reevaluated and improvements required.
Variances: The applicant has requested the following variances for the DDP.
Sidewalks: In addition to the sidewalks on Williams Drive, Table 33030-A requires
sidewalks on one side of collector streets. A variance is requested to
this requirement on Dawn Drive. There are no sidewalks along this
street to the north and south of the street segment that will be built as
part of the Section Two plat. Therefore, a variance to this requirement
may be reasonable.
Access: Several variances are requested regarding access to the site. Table
33030-A, Design Standards for Streets, establishes a 450 foot minimum
separation between driveways on major arterials (Williams Drive) and a
125 foot separation on collectors (Dawn Drive). None of the paved
driveways on Williams Drive or Dawn Drive meet these separation
requirements. Section 33042 allows a maximum driveway width of 30
feet for an undivided driveway. All of the driveways on Williams
Drive exceed this standard, ranging from 40 feet to 130 feet. The
driveway on the southeast corner of Lot 2, Section Two, also exceeds
this standard, at 42 feet. This driveway accesses the unimproved
portion of Dawn Drive and should be modified to meet the design
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 4
standard when the City constructs Dawn Drive. Finally, Section 33044
establishes the required separation between driveways and intersections.
On major arterials, 400 feet is required, and on collectors 75 feet is
required. The actual distance between the driveway at the Pit Barbecue
and River Bend Drive is approximately 129 feet. On Dawn Drive,
approximately 30 feet separates the driveways onto Lots 1 and 2,
Section Two, from River Bend Drive.
Over time, improvements to these conditions can be made. For
example, when Dawn Drive is constructed, the driveways closest to
River Bend Drive on Lots 1 and 2 (at the northeast corner), Section
Two, should be closed. This will eliminate the substandard separation
distance to the intersection and between driveways. Together with the
elimination of the parking in the front yard recommended below,
circulation to the parking spaces at the northeast corner of Lot 2 will be
maintained. As described above, the unimproved driveway access to
the southeast corner of Lot 2 should be corrected to comply with the
design standards at the time Dawn Drive is built. Further, while it may
be appropriate to allow the four (4) driveways along Williams Drive to
remain, improvements should be made to improve safety. The 130 foot
driveway in front of the 7-11 store is not safe, especially with the
gasoline pump located in the front yard setback. At such time as any
permits are issued for this portion of the property, the driveway should
be modified to meet the maximum width requirement. Similarly, the
driveway in front of the Pit Barbecue should be reduced to meet the
design standards for width at such time as any permits are issued for
this part of the site. Finally, any significant redevelopment of the
shopping center (including Lot 1, Section One, and Lot 2, Section Two)
should initiate a reevaluation of all the access issues described above in
order to bring the property into compliance with the City's design
standards.
Parking: Section 33051 A. requires that all off-street parking spaces be provided
outside the required front building setbacks. Existing parking on the
northeast and southeast (frontage on Dawn Drive) and northwest
(frontage on Williams Drive) corners of Lot 2, Section Two, encroaches
into the front setbacks. This involves ten (10) parking spaces. Given
the fact that this DDP provides 51 parking spaces more than required,
these should be eliminated. SEE EXHIBIT C
Table 33057 establishes the required dimensions for parking spaces
based on the parking lot design. For parking spaces designed at a 75 to
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-A1R.DDP Page 5
90 degree angle, such as those at the Lake Aire Shopping Center,
parking spaces are required to be 9.5 feet X 20 feet in size. The
existing parking spaces at the shopping center are 9 feet X 18 feet in
size.
Setbacks: Three (3) existing structures encroach into the platted setbacks as
required by Table 34020, Design Standards for Lots. On Lot 3, Section
Two, the structure encroaches approximately six (6) feet into the 20
foot platted rear building setback. On Lot 2, Section Two, the building
on the south side of the lot encroaches a maximum of ten (10) feet into
the platted 20 foot side building setback, and the gasoline pump at the
7-11 store (on the southwest corner) encroaches approximately 9.5 feet
into the 25 foot platted front building setback. Given that these are
existing encroachments, a variance to this requirement may be
appropriate. However, if any substantial redevelopment occurs on these
lots, these existing encroachments should be removed. This is
especially important as it applies to the gasoline pump given the
inherent risks involved in the use and its location along a major arterial.
SEE EXHIBIT C
Impervious/ Table 34020, Design Standards for Lots, establishes a maximum
Building Cover: impervious cover of 70 percent and a maximum building cover of 20
percent for the Commercial, Retail and Service, land use. Lot 1,
Section One, and Lots 1 and 3, Section Two, exceed the impervious
cover limit and Lot 1, Section One, also exceeds the maximum building
cover limit. The approval of the Section Two plat included a variance
for the existing impervious cover on Lots 1 and 2. Given this fact, and
the fact that the this condition is the result of long established
development, a variance to these standards may be appropriate.
Section 60070.B of the Subdivision Regulations states:
"In granting approval of a request for variance the Commission shall
make findings that:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
sought; and
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center
September 16, 1995
Project N DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 6
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
Other Issues: In 1987 a site plan was approved by the City for a small hamburger
stand, known as Boss Burgers, on the concrete pad located between the
7-11 store and the bank. This site plan established the parking, access,
and landscaping requirements for the project. On the subject DDP, the
applicant has chosen not to include that previous DDP, thereby
effectively voiding its approval. Therefore, any future development on
the existing pad will require a revision to the subject DDP.
Two additional driveways are used for access to the Lake Aire
Shopping Center. These are located off Golden Oaks Drive and access
the south portion of Lot 2, Section Two. The applicant was unable to
locate any easements or other documentation to establish authority for
these access points. They have been indicated on the DDP, but may
have to be closed at any time subject to documentation from adjacent
property owners that they should not exist.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the detailed development plan for Lake Aire Subdivision,
Sections One and Two, provided the Technical Issues are addressed
prior to City Council consideration; and approval of the following
variances, subject to the required findings of fact:
1. Table 33057 thereby allowing the parking spaces to be smaller than
standard;
2. Table 34020 to allow the existing encroachments to remain within
platted building lines;
3. Table 33030-A to allow substandard driveway separations on
Williams Drive and to waive the requirement for a sidewalk on one side
of Dawn Drive;
4. Section 33042 to allow substandard driveway widths along Williams
Drive;
5. Section 33044 to allow substandard spacing between the driveway
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center
September 16, 1995
Project #1 DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AIR.DDP Page 7
on Williams Drive and the intersection with River Bend Drive; and
6. Table 34020 to allow greater impervious cover on Lot 1, Section
One, and Lots 1 and 2, Section Two; and greater building cover on Lot
1, Section One.
These variances shall be in effect until such time as substantial
redevelopment occurs on the subject property, at which time the
conditions under which these variances have been granted may be
reevaluated and improvements required. Any permits issued for those
portions of the site that contain the 7-11 store (southwest corner of Lot
2, Section Two) and the Pit Barbecue (northwest corner of Lot 2,
Section Two) shall require a reevaluation of the variances related to
building setbacks and access.
Denial of the variance to Section 33051 A. thereby requiring the
parking located in front yards on Williams Drive and Dawn Drive to be
removed; and to Table 33030-A and Sections 33042 and 33044
regarding the driveway layout on Dawn Drive, thereby requiring that
these conditions be improved at the time Dawn Drive is constructed.
P & Z ACTION: At their regular meeting of January 4, 1994, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to approve the requested DDP for Lake Aire
Subdivision, Sections One and Two, provided the Technical Issues are
addressed prior to City Council consideration; and approval of the
following variances, subject to the required findings of fact: 1) Table
33057 thereby allowing the parking spaces to be smaller than standard;
2) Table 34020 to allow the existing encroachments to remain within
platted building lines; 3) Table 33030-A to allow substandard driveway
separations on Williams Drive and to waive the requirement for a
sidewalk on one side of Dawn Drive; 4) Section 33042 to allow
substandard driveway widths along Williams Drive; 5) Section 33044 to
allow substandard spacing between the driveway on Williams Drive and
the intersection with River Bend Drive; and 6) Table 34020 to allow
greater impervious cover on Lot 1, Section One and Lots 1 and 2,
Section Two, and greater building cover on Lot 1, Section One. These
variances shall be in effect until such time as substantial redevelopment
occurs on the subject property, at which time the conditions under
which these variances have been granted may be reevaluated and
improvements required. Any permits issued for a change in use or
redevelopment of those portions of the site that contain the 7-11 store
(southwest corner of Lot 2, Section Two) and the Pit Barbecue
(northwest corner of Lot 2, Section Two) shall require a reevaluation of
DDP - Lake Aire Shopping Center September 16, 1995
Project # DP-94-07 / File: LAKE-AiR.DDP Page 8
the variances related to building setbacks and access. Denial of the
variance to Section 33051 A. thereby requiring the parking located in
front yards on Williams Drive and Dawn Drive to be removed; and to
Table 33030-A and Sections 33042 and 33044 regarding the driveway
layout on Dawn Drive, thereby requiring that these conditions be
improved at the time Dawn Drive is constructed. Deferral of Technical
Issue #4 regarding a drainage study, the timing of which can be worked
out by staff.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No. L;
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Preliminary Plat of 27.51 acres in the John Sutherland Survey,
to be known as Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5; and Variances to the Subdivision Regulations
ITEM SUMMARY: The subject Preliminary Plat is largely consistent with the Revised
Concept Plan for Fountainwood Estates approved in 1993. The plat proposes 21 large, single
family residential lots. The following variances are requested to permit development of the
subdivision as proposed: 1) to Section 33030 K. to allow reverse curves in Nicole Way that do
not achieve the minimum center line curve radii required. In addition, these curves do not meet
the requirement established by Section 33030 L. for reverse curves to be separated by a
minimum tangent of 100 feet. The COU Division recommends that the reverse curves be
straightened to one (1) smooth curve before a variance to the standard can be supported. This
will reduce to one (1) the number of curves that do not meet the standard, and will eliminate the
issue of tangent distance. 2) To Section 36050 B. to allow Lots. 12 and 13 to have less than the
minimum width of 120 feet required for lots designed to the rural subdivision standards. Both
lots achieve the minimum width at the front setback line and both are larger than the minimum
lot size requirement of one (1) acre.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The applicant requested the variance to Section 33030 K. in
order to preserve several trees within the right-of-way that range from 4 to 14 inches in diameter.
Recognizing the need to balance safety with the desire to preserve the trees, the Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended that the reverse curves be straightened to one (1) curve as
proposed by City staff, unless staff is satisfied that the trees can be preserved without creating
a safety hazard. Staff met with the applicant's agent on September 18 to review the location of
the trees in relation to the street alignment. Staff and the applicant agreed that one of the curves
would be straightened and the tangent distance lengthened to meet the standards. Also, "slow"
signs will be erected at each end of the curves that remain. The revision to the street alignment
is reflected on the attached plat.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At their regular meeting of September 5, 1995, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the Preliminary Plat of Fountainwood Estates,
Phase 5, provided the Technical Issues are addressed prior to City Council consideration, and
approval of the requested variances to Section 33030 K. provided the reverse curves are
straightened to one (1) curve unless City staff is satisfied that trees can be preserved without
creating a safety hazard, and to Section 36050 B., thereby approving the design of Lots 12 and
13, after making the required findings of fact.
The attached plat has been revised to address the Technical Issues as required by the
Commission.
RECOI\MENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be
consistent with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, and will require that
the reverse curves be straightened to one (1) curve, unless stated otherwise.

REQUEST: Preliminary Plat of 27.51 acres in the John Sutherland Survey,
located on Nicole Way as recorded in Deed Records in Volume
2190, Page 380 of Williamson County, Texas; and variances to
the Subdivision Regulations.
FACTS:
Location: Located on Nicole Way. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: Undeveloped land.
Existing Zoning: This tract is located outside the City limits so zoning does not
apply.
Proposed Use: 21 single family lots.
Surrounding Uses: North: Fountainwood Estates, Phase 2, single family
residential (out of City)
South: Fountainwood Estates, Phase 4-B, single family
residential (out of City)
East: U.S. Corp of Engineers, park land (out of City)
West: Fountainwood Estates, Phase 4B (out of City)
Preliminary Plat - Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5
September 16, 1995
PP#-95-07 / File: FTNW-5.PP Page 1
Century Plan: The Century Plan Development Plan designates this location as Intensity
Level 1. The proposed use is within allowable development limits for
this acreage. SEE EXHIBIT B
Notification: The notification requirements have been completed.
HISTORY: A Revised Concept Plan for. Fountainwood Estates was approved in July
1993. It indicates that Phase 5 will include 65.1 acres of land,
including 35 residential lots and 6.7 acres of park land. Subsequent to
the approval of the Revised Concept Plan, the City approved a plat for
Phase 2A and a Development Agreement that stipulates that the 2.0
acres in Phase 2A will be deeded to the City as a park land tract if an
alternate parcel has not been deeded to the City within five (5) years of
the Agreement. The Agreement was signed in December 1993. The
alternate park land parcel is to be a minimum of 15 acres in size and
has been proposed as the land identified on the Revised Concept Plan as
being located along a drainage area between Phases 5 and 7. Given the
location of the proposed park land (SEE EXHIBIT A), it is required to
have several access points adjacent to public streets. The subject plat
encompasses one (1) of those public access points, located between Lots
16 and 17.
ANALYSIS: The subject Preliminary Plat is largely consistent with the approved
Revised Concept Plan for Fountainwood Estates. SEE EXHIBIT C It
is consistent in that it includes large lots fronting on Nicole Way. It
differs in total acres, number of lots, and the lack of park land
dedication. The fact that the park land is not dedicated in this phase is
probably not significant given the recordation of Phase 2A and the
Development Agreement as described above. There are several
Technical Items that need to be addressed, and a variance is requested.
The subject plat is evaluated according to the Rural Subdivision Design
Standards established by Section 36000. A complete drainage plan,
with calculations, must be submitted with the construction plans for this
plat.
Variances: Section 33030 K. Local Street Curves
This section establishes a minimum center line curve radius of 250 feet
for local streets. Nothing in the rural subdivision standards, or any
other section of the ordinance, exempts rural subdivisions from meeting
the design standards established by Section 33000. The three (3)
reverse curves in Nicole Way at Lots 8, 9, 10, 14, and 15 do not
achieve the minimum center line curve radii required. They range from
Preliminary Plat - Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5 September 16, 1995
PP#-95-07 / File: FTNW-5.PP Page 2
106 to 224 feet. In addition, they do not meet. the requirement
established by Section 33030 L., which requires reverse curves to be
separated by a minimum tangent of 100 feet. These curves have no
separation between them. Therefore, the Community Owned Utilities
Division recommends that these reverse curves be straightened to one
smooth curve before a variance to the standard can be supported. This
will reduce to one (1) the number of curves that do not meet the
standard, and will eliminate the issue of tangent distance. Two (2)
previous phases of the Fountainwood Estates development have
requested and received variances to Sections 33030 K. and 33030 L.
Phase 2 received a variance to Section 33030 L. for tangent distances
that were only ten (10) feet less than the required 100 feet. Phases 4A
and 4B were approved with variances to Section 33030 K. for curve
radii. In the case of Phase 4A, only one (1) curve of 200 feet radius
was involved. In the case of Phase 4B, revisions to the plat were made
to limit the variance request to three (3) curves ranging from 150 feet to
210 feet radius.
Section 36050 B. Lot Width
This section requires lots designed to the rural subdivision standards to
have a minimum width at the front property line of 120 feet. The width
of Lots 12 and 13 at their front property lines is 117.86 feet and 72.89
feet, respectively. However, both lots achieve the 120 foot minimum
width at the front setback line. Lot 12 is greater than 140 feet at the
front setback line, and Lot 13 is 124.8 feet at the front setback line.
All lots in this proposed subdivision have 50 foot front yard setbacks,
significantly larger that the 25 foot setback required by the regulations.
Both subject lots exceed the minimum lot size requirement of one (1)
acre. For these reasons, it may be reasonable to approve this variance.
After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting, and reading the documentation provided by the
applicant and the staff's recommendation, the Commission makes the
following findings of fact as required by Section 60070.B of the
Subdivision Regulations:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
sought; and
Preliminary Plat - Fountainwood Estates, Phase 5
September 16, 1995
PP#-95-07 / File: FTNW-S.PP Page 3
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
The applicant's documentation for these variances is attached.
Technical Issues: The following Technical Issues must be addressed prior to consideration
of this plat by the City Council. If they are not addressed by
September 29, 1995, or if the applicant does not concur with a delay to
the City Council's consideration of the plat to allow the Technical
Issues to be addressed, the plat will be forwarded to the Council with a
recommendation for denial.
1. Provide a letter requesting annexation. Where Section 24040 C.
indicates that this letter is required "if applicable", it exempts only those
subdivisions that are located within the City limits.
2. Note on the plat that the area left unplatted between Lots 16 and 17
will be part of the public park land to be dedicated to the City. The
property owner has recently discussed the possibility of dedicating a
different parcel of land to the City in lieu of this land. Therefore, if the
land within the subject plat does not become part of the public park, it
must be replatted to be incorporated into the subject plat.
3. The subject subdivision will receive water service from the
Chisholm Trail Water District. Section 35012 requires that all
approved subdivisions provide the required fire flows. In order to
document that this standard can be met when the water supplier is not
the City, engineering data and an engineer's certification that the fire
flows can be met must be submitted. This data must be provided.
4. Provide sufficient documentation to ensure that the street cross -slope
follows the natural slope of the land where said slope is toward the
inside of a horizontal curve or is within a tangent section. If the street
cross -slope is away from the inside of a horizontal curve it will not be
allowed.

DOCUMENTATION OF BASIS FOR REQUESTED VARIANCE
3/2/95
Applicant: Max Allen-Fountainwood Estates Phase 5
This request is for a variance from the literal enforcement of Section(s)
of the Subdivision Regulations.
36050B
Give a brief description of the variance requested: Lots 12 and 13 have less than
the required minimum width at
the front property
line of
120 feet.
These lots front on -a circular
cul-de-sac. Lot
12 has a
frontage
of 117.86 feet and lot 13 has
72.89 feet on the
property
line;
however, Lot 13 is 124.80 feet
wide_ at the front
setback
line. Thei
lots contain 1.4 and 1.1 acres respectively.
You have requested a variance to the design standards of the Subdivision Regulations. In order
to be able to recommend and approve such a variance, Section 60070 B. of the Regulations,
requires that the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council must be able to "ensure that
the variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions, a literal
enforcement of the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship." The Commission and
Council are directed to meet these requirements by making specific findings of fact. In order
to assist the Commission and Council in conducting their deliberations regarding your requested
variance, please complete this form to document how this request will impact the issues described
below. These issues relate directly to the eight (8) findings of fact that must be cited by the
Commission and Council when recommending approval of any variance. You may attach an
additional sheet, or submit this information in the form of a letter.
1. In what manner will the public convenience and welfare be substantially served?
The lot line between lots 12 and 13 has been located to coincide
with a natural drainage way. The lots on either side of 12 and
13 have been designed to a good building site and a 'logi'cal lot
configuration.
2. Will the appropriate use of surrounding property be substantially or permanently impaired or
diminished in any manner? Provide reasons why you believe your answer to be supportable.
No. Frontage on cul-de-sacs is normally less than that
required on straight streets. Setbacks prevent structures
from being placed adversely to adjacent lots.
3. What are the hardships involved? How were those hardships created? How are those
hardships different from those affecting the rest of the public faced with the enforcement of this
same provision? Note that the Commission and Council cannot approve a variance for which the
hardship claimed is solely of an economic nature.
Nature created the location of the drainageway, and the
topography of the land. The subdivision ordinance creates
requirements that. do not always match land configurations.
4. If the requested variance if approved, will it confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of similar and surrounding property?
Provide reasons why you believe your answer to be supportable.
No. Similiar variances have been granted in previous phases.
5. How is the public interest affected?
It is not affected.
6. List the special conditions that affect this property and justify the approval of the variance.
Cul-de-sacs are a normal tool used to provide access to areas
where streets cannot be reasonably extended.
7. How will the spirit of the ordinance be observed if this request is granted?
The lot area and required setbacks are provided. The
adjacent Greenbelt Park will not be crossed by another street.
The park will have approstimately 4,000 feet of uninterrupted
park.
8. How will substantial justice be done if this request is granted?
Th.is subdivision will be able to use the same standards for
frontage on cul-de-sacs as previous phases.
DOCUMENTATION OF BASIS FOR RE, QUL,-STED VARIANCE
Date: _August 15, 1995Applicant: Caprock Business Forms, Inc, & Max Allen
This request is for a variance from the literal enforcement of Section(s) _
of the Subdivision Regulations.
3303 K & L
Give a brief description of the variance requested: To permit curve radius of less than
250 feet and tangent distances between reverse curves of 0 feet in order to
prevent the destruction of large Oak and Elm trees.
You have requested a variance to the design standards of the Subdivision Regulations. In order
to be able to recommend and approve such a variance, Section 60070 B. of the Regufations,
requires that the Planning and Zoning Commission Ad City Council must be able to "ensure that
the variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions, a literal
enforcement of the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship." The Commission and
Council are directed to meet these requirements by making specific findings of fact. In order
to assist the Commission and Council in conducting their deliberations regarding your requested
variance, please complete this form to document how this request will impact the issues described
below. These issues relate directly to the eight (8) findings of fact that must be cited by .the
Commission and Council when recommending approval of any variance. You may attach an
additional sheet, or submit this information in the form of a letter.
1. In what .manner will the public convenience and welfare be substantially served?
The enhancement of the homes and environment by the preservation of large
Oak and Elm trees that have survived for hundreds of years.
2. Will the appropriate use of surrounding property be substantially or permanently impaired or
diminished in any manner? Provide reasons why you believe your answer to be supportable.
The appropriate use of the adjacent and sgrrounding property will be
substantially and permanently enhanced by saving these trees.
3. what are the hardships involved? How were those hardships created? How are those
hardships different from those affecting the rest of the public faced with the enforcement of this.
same provision? Note that the Commission and Council cannot approve a variance for which the
hardship claimed is solely of an economic nature.
The purpose for saving these trees is the preservation of these works of
nature and their benefit to the environment. The alignment picked will save
most of th6 trees. To move the street will destroy more trees. The standards
have been waived in Phases 2,3,4A and 4B to save trees. The public -safety
will not bq hindered since a driver will be able to see the areas of the .
street that automobiles will use throughout the. curves length.. The street
is short with onlyenty on lots u n t fo access. It ends in "T"
intersections on eac ehd. eIt is on l✓�9�U - feet long. It does not
encourage speed.
4. If the requested variance if approved; will it confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of similar and surroundingproperty?
P Pe Y?
Provide reasons. why you believe your answer to be supportable.
No. Other streets have had similiar variances.
5. How is the public interest affected?
The public interest isbenefited by the preservation of the trees involved.
Auto and pedestrian sight lines are maintained.
6. List the special conditions that affect this property and justify the approval of the variance.
The benefits of large native oak and elm trees far outweigh the benefits of
destruction. Tree lined curvealinear streets have beenpr6ven to slow
and benefit the quality of life.
7. How will the spirit of the ordinance be observed if this request is granted?
The primary purpose of this street is to provide access to the adjacent lots
It is not a "through" street. It does not convey traffic from one part of
the City to another. The prservation of these trees is a better landscaping
method than any replacement planting.
8. How will substantial justice be done.if'this request is granted?

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of approval of a Detailed Development Plan for City of Georgetown, Block
14, Lot 1 and Part of Lot 8; and approval of variances to the Subdivision Regulations; located at 302
South Austin Avenue.
ITEM SUMMARY: The proposed detailed development plan is for a restaurant in a building which
was formerly used as an antique store. When a site changes use it is eligible for the reduced DDP
requirements outlined in Section 16010 A.7.b. of the Subdivision Regulations, as adopted in January of
this year. Generally, those lesser requirements permit sites to be occupied provided at least one (1) of
the non -conforming aspects of it is made conforming. In this case, the applicant chose to provide the
required amount of parking. In order to provide the required amount of parking on the site, however,
several variances are necessary.
The lot's narrow width permits only a parking lot with a one-way driveway aisle, since such a
design has a narrower aisle width and the parking spaces are angled. In order to provide a one-way aisle
there must be entrance only and exit only driveways: The proposed driveways are approximately 71 feet
apart, whereas the standard requires 150 feet separation. The Police Services Division has expressed
some concern over the reduction in the separation of the driveways coupled with the already dangerous
intersection of Third Street and Austin Avenue. It is believed that a restaurant at the location will
increase the number of vehicles using the intersection daily. '
Because of the narrow lot, the proposed parking area encroaches into the side and rear building
setback lines. A variance is requested to permit this.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: It is staff's belief that the intent of the lesser DDP requirements,
adopted earlier this year, is to allow eligible, non -conforming sites to be occupied and comply with the
ordinance without the need for additional variances. This request was accepted due to staff's uncertainty
of Council's intent when adopting this amendment. Therefore, staff requests direction from the City
Council on the intent of this regulation regarding sites which require additional variances.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0
to recommend approval of a Detailed Development Plan for the City of Georgetown, Block 14, Lot 1
and part of Lot 8, located at 302 South Austin Avenue provided the Technical Issues are addressed prior
to City Council consideration. Recommend approval of variances to Table 33030-A to permit the two
(2) proposed driveways to be closer than 150 feet provided they maintain the proposed one-way design,
and to Section 34020 G.1. to permit the proposed encroachments of the parking lot into the building
setback lines on the north and south sides, after making the required findings of fact.
A Detailed Development Plan addressing the Technical Issues is attached.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be consistent with
the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.

REQUEST: Detailed Development. Plan for City of Georgetown, Block 14,
Lot 1 and part of Lot 8, to be- known as El Charrito Restaurant,
as recorded in Volume 1591, Page 126 of the Official Deed
Records of Williamson County, Texas; and variances to the
Subdivision Regulations.
Location: Located at the 302 South Austin Avenue. SEE EXHIBIT A
Existing Site: Vacant retail structure.
Existing Zoning: C-2A, Commercial First Height. The part of Lot 8 that is
included in this property was originally zoned R-S, but since it is
under one ownership the entire property is considered zoned C-
2A according to Section 12.104 of the Zoning Ordinance and an
interpretation of the Board of Adjustment.
Proposed Use: Restaurant

Century Plan: The Century Plan -Development Plan designates this location as
Intensity Level 4. The proposed use exceeds the square footage
permitted by the Century Plan standards for restaurants. SEE
EXHIBIT B
Notification: The notification requirements have been completed.
ANALYSIS: The proposal is to open a restaurant at this location which
formerly housed an antique store. Due to the site's change in
use, it is eligible for the new, lesser detailed development plan
standard. The new DDP standard, as specified in Section 16010
7.b. of the Subdivision Regulations, applies to any new activity
on a site where there is a change in use or the building has been
vacant for a period of two (2) years or longer. Sites not eligible
for this new standard are subject to the previous DDP standard
which includes all site design standards.
Detailed Development Plan
DDP 95- /File: 302AUSTN.DDP
CM:CS
Generally, the new DDP standard allows applicants of such sites
described above to select one aspect of the site that does not
conform to the current regulations and bring it into conformance.
All other nonconforming aspects may remain without the need
for a variance. The purpose of this new DDP standard is to
enable developed sites to conform to the regulations by making
incremental improvements to the property. The intention was
that these properties would be able to come into conformance
without the need for variances. The City staff accepted this
request for variances due to the uncertainty of the regulation
regarding whether or not sites taking advantage of the lesser
DDP requirements are eligible for variances. It is likely that
there will be more cases using this standard in the future.
Therefore, the staff requests direction from the Commission
regarding the original intent when the new lesser DDP standard
was adopted.
In this case, the applicant chooses to provide parking spaces to
conform to the standard as specified in the Subdivision
September 1, 1995
Page 2
Detailed Development Plan
DDP 95- /File: 302AUSTN.DDP
CM:CS
Regulations. Practically, the only other aspect which may have
been chosen was landscaping. Staff agrees with the choice of
providing the required amount of parking spaces since the
proposed use is a restaurant and has the potential for attracting
many customers at peak hours, and therefore, needing many off-
street parking spaces. Given this site's proximity to Austin
Avenue, it is desirable to eliminate the possibility for on -street
parking. It is also possible to bring the site into conformance
with the landscaping regulations, but doing so will not address
the need for parking at the site. Currently, there is no off-street
parking on the site. The proposed use requires ten (10) spaces.
The applicant proposes to provide 13 spaces; however, there is
not sufficient room on the lot to provide even ten (10) spaces
with associated driveways and aisles and conform to all setbacks.
All of the proposed parking is located on the site and behind the
building. SEE EXHIBIT C The DDP proposes an entry only
and exit only system of two (2) driveways serving the parking
lot that has a one-way aisle with 13 parking spaces at a 60
degree angle.
Intensity Level 4 of the Century Plan allows restaurants on a
0.24 acre site, such as this, to be up to 948 square feet. SEE
EXHIBIT B The existing building is 1,020 feet. The previous
use, the antique store, conformed with the Century Plan since it
was allowed up to 3,948 square feet. Therefore, it is the change
in use that renders the proposal nonconforming. The reason for
the difference in square footage allowances is due to restaurants'
tendencies to consume and discharge more water and wastewater
than general retail uses. In this case, the limiting factor is
wastewater.
Typically, an amendment to the Century Plan is processed to
change the Intensity Level at a location where more square
footage is desired. In order to change the Intensity Level,
improvements to either the water, wastewater or transportation
system are required to accommodate the level of service. The
Community Owned Utilities Division has determined that both
September 1, 1995
Page 3
N
the water and wastewater lines serving the subject site are
adequate to provide service to a restaurant. Therefore, there
should be no required improvements to the systems to permit a
Century Plan amendment.
Additionally, the Building Inspections Department indicates that
the subject building may not be structurally sound to
accommodate the proposed use and alterations may be required.
Building plans have not been filed with that office yet, so it is
uncertain exactly what structural alterations are either necessary
are proposed. Along with the building plans, the Building
Inspections Department may require an engineer's certification
that the building is structurally sound to accommodate the
proposed use. This may necessitate additional actions on the
part of the applicant since Sections 4.102 and 4.104 of the
Zoning Ordinance states that non -conforming structures may not
be reconstructed or structurally altered unless made to conform.
Variance: Table 33030-A Driveway Separation
The two (2) proposed driveways are approximately 71 feet apart.
The standard driveway separation for commercial uses on local
streets is 150 feet. There are currently no driveways into this
site; however, customers of the previous use of the site parked
their vehicles in head -in fashion along Third Street. Third Street
extends westward approximately three (3) blocks serving a
primarily residential area and the Williamson County Court
House Annex. Third Street is not the only east -west street to
intersect with Austin Avenue in this area. Both Second Street to
the north and Fourth through Eleventh Streets to the south
intersect with it. The Police Services Division is concerned with
the addition of a restaurant at this location and the possible effect
it will have on the Third Street/Austin Avenue intersection. Duet -
to the slope of Austin Avenue at this location, the intersection
has a substantial amount of vehicular accidents. The restaurant
will likely generate more trips than the previous use. Vehicles
attempting a left turn onto Austin Avenue from Third Street may
block the proposed entrance drvieway, therefore backing up
vehicles attempting to turn into the restaurant parking lot. The

proposed entrance driveway is 64 feet from Austin Avenue. The
minimum distance required is 60 feet.
Section 34020 G.I. Encroachments Into Building Lines
Since the lot was existing prior to May 10, 1977, it is exempt
from the current platting requirements and therefore is not
subject to the standards associated with platting. One of those
standards which is associated with platting is building setback
lines. Therefore, the building setback lines as established by the
Zoning Ordinance apply to this site. SEE EXHIBIT D
The proposed parking lot encroaches into the ten (10) foot
building line along the north property line adjacent to Third
Street. The five (5) spaces adjacent to that side actually extend
as far as the property line. The spaces on the south side also
encroach into the building setback line on that side. There is a
seven (7) foot building setback line where the subject lot is
adjacent to R-S zoned property and a four (4) foot building
setback line where it is adjacent to C-2A zoned property. The
proposed parking area encroaches to within one (1) foot of the
property line. Both the encroachment into the northern and
southern building setback lines are proposed in order to provide
60 degree parking spaces with standard depth and a driveway
aisle with standard width. The DDP proposes the minimum
width of parking area necessary to conform to these standard
dimensions.
After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting, and reading the documentation
provided by the applicant and the staff's recommendation, the
Commission makes the following findings of fact as required by
Section 60070.13 of the Subdivision Regulations.
s
1.The public convenience and welfare will be substantially
served; and
2.The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3.The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
September 1, 1995
Page 5
sought; and
4.The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right
or privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5.The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6.The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8.In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
TECHNICAL ISSUES: The following Technical Issue must be addressed prior to
consideration of this DDP by the City Council.
1. The water line that is parallel to Third Street Shall be labeled
as a six (6) inch line rather than a 3/4 inch line.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of a Detailed Development Plan for the City of
Georgetown, Block 14, Lot 1 and part of Lot 8, located at 302
South Austin Avenue provided the Technical Issues are
addressed prior to City Council Consideration. Approval of
variances to Table 33030-A to permit the two (2) proposed
driveways to be closer than 150 feet provided they maintain the
proposed one-way design and Section 34020 G.1. to permit the
proposed encroachments of the parking lot into the building
setback lines on the north and south sides after making the
required findings of fact.
P & Z ACTION: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of a Detailed
Development Plan for the City of Georgetown, Block 14, Lot 1
and part of Lot 8, located at 302 South Austin Avenue provided the

We own the office building at 310-312/Austin Ave. which adjoins the subject property to
be re -zoned. We are concerned about the adequate, convenient parking to be made available
for this cafe. The small size of the lot, and the extreme slope of the property has present(
a problem for this property in the past, in so far as their parking facilities are concerned.
We are concerned about the fact that they will be unable to provide adequate, convenient
parking for 13 vehicles as shown in the plat. We rais his objection, because we do not
want our paved parking lot (which adjoins this property on the su�h) to // ke ued for their
parking.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No. 11
JW
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of approval of a variance to the Subdivision Regulations for a 2.0 acre
tract in the Clement Stubblefield Survey to be known as Good Luck Subdivision.
ITEM SUMMARY: In June of this year, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City
Council approved a short form final plat for this subdivision. A condition of approval was that
a water line be extended to the site in conformance with the City's standards for extending
utilities. When the construction plans were reviewed by the City staff, the applicant was told of
the need to extend the water line to the most western point of the subdivision and that the water
line must also be extended to the SH29 right-of-way. The applicant requests a variance in order
to provide the water line extension only as far as the beginning of the subdivision boundary.
Such a variance was given in one (1) case recently, where it was determined that
topographical conditions existed that did not permit the extension of a wastewater line. Such
conditions do not exist in this case. In that same case, extension of a water line was postponed
through a development agreement until the street under which the line will be located is also
extended.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Planning and Zoning Commission questioned the need
to require the extension of the water line to the western boundary and to be extended to the SH29
right-of-way. The applicant requests that the water line only be extended as far as the point at
which it enters the subject property. The Commission's recommendation is that the water line
be extended to the northwest corner and not be required to extend to the SH29 right-of-way.
This is 233 feet shorter than what was initially required and 309 feet longer than what the
applicant requested.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
5-0 to recommend approval of the requested variance to Section 41030, thereby requiring the
water line to be extended to terminate at the northwest corner of the subject property, after
making the required findings of fact.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: If this item is approved by the City Council, it will be
consistent with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, unless stated otherwise.

Variance - Good Luck Subdivision
September 1, 1995
VR 95-19/File: GOODLUCK.VAR Page I
CM:CS
HISTORY: This tract was annexed into the City on November 18, 1986. The Good
Luck Subdivision was approved by the Planning and Zoning
Commission on June 6, 1995, and by the City Council on June 27,
1995. A rezoning request was approved by Commission and Council at
the same time. The second reading of the rezoning will be withheld
until the Good Luck Subdivision plat is recorded.
ANALYSIS: This request is for a variance to Section 41030, which requires that all
improvements be designed and installed in a manner that creates a
logical and continuous system of improvements to serve adjacent
properties. The applicant requests this variance to eliminate the
requirement that the water line required as a condition of approval of
the Good Luck Subdivision plat be extended to the subdivision's western
boundary. The applicant proposes to extend the line from County Road
265 to the point where it enters the Good Luck Subdivision. SEE
EXHIBIT B This point is approximately 326 feet from the nearest
portion of the SH29 right-of-way and approximately 452 feet from the
point to which the line is required to be extended. If the line was
extended to the point as requested by the applicant, adjacent properties
would be required to extend the line over the Good Luck Subdivision in
order to bring service to their property at the time they are platted.
This is similar to what the applicant was required to do in this case;
however, the only alternative available to the applicant was to extend
another water line approximately 1,400 feet along SH29.
In one recent case, the staff has recommended, and the Commission and
Council approved, variances to the requirement that utilities be extended
to the perimeter of a subdivision. Such a variance was granted to Inner
Loop Commercial Park, Section One. In that case, a variance was
given to eliminate the requirement that a water line be extended;
however, it is only a temporary variance. The line must be extended
when the street, under which the water line will be located is extended.
Further, the property in the area of the street and water line extensions s
was under the same ownership as Inner Loop Commercial Park, Section
One. That subdivision also received a variance to the requirement for
extension of a wastewater line. The applicant submitted documentation
that the topography of the area prevented the extension of the
wastewater line beyond its proposed terminus. Neither of these
situations are apparent in this case.

Variances: After listening to the testimony presented at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting, and reading the documentation provided by the
applicant and the staff's recommendation, the Commission makes the
following findings of fact as required by Section 60070.B of the
Subdivision Regulations:
1. The public convenience and welfare will be substantially served;
and
2. The appropriate use of surrounding property will not be
substantially or permanently impaired or diminished; and
3. The applicant has not created the hardship from which relief is
sought; and
4. The variance will not confer upon the applicant a special right or
privilege not commonly shared or available to the owners of
similar and surrounding property; and
5. The hardship from which relief is sought is not solely of an
economic nature; and
6. The variance is not contrary to the public interest; and
7. Due to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the
ordinance would result in an unnecessary hardship; and
8. In granting the variance the spirit of the ordinance is observed
and substantial justice is done."
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Denial of the requested variance to Section 41030, thereby requiring the
water line to be extended as originally approved.
P & Z ACTION: At its September 5, 1995, meeting, the Planning and Zoning
Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the requested
variance to Section 41030, thereby requiring the water line to be
extended to terminate at the northwest corner of the subject
property, after making the required findings of fact.

To: The Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Georgetown
From: The Good Luck Subdivision Hwy 29 - Ben and Alicia Johnson
We have been asked by the City of Georgetown to install a fire hydrant on the front of
our property. We agree that a fire hydrant is essential, but it is the placement of that fire
hydrant that is in question.
Of course, the public can only benefit from a fire hydrant being placed on our property.
Neighboring businesses and residents would have much better fire protection, and
could possibly benefit from lower insurance rates.
The hardship involved is the distance we are from a public water supply. Since the city
ran the public water line down County Road 265 instead of State Highway 29, to pipe
water to our property, we must run a water line across the back of an adjoining prop-
erty to the back corner of our property. To place a fire hydrant on State Highway 29,
which is the front of our property would require an additional 340 feet of water line.
Approval of this variance would allow us some flexibility to still run the water line and still
provide fire hydrant protection and accessibility to ourselves and our neighbors by placing
the fire hydrant closer to the actual building rather than the State Highway 29. We feel
that approval of this variance will ultimately benefit all parties involved.

AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT
A Resolution expressing official intent to reimburse costs of certain street capital improvements projects not to
exceed $1,370,000 with proceeds from bonds that will be issued at a later time.
ITEM SUMNLARY
The City transportation improvements included in the 1995/96 Annual Operating Plan included three projects;
Quail Valley, 15th Street, and Railroad Street; to be financed with general obligation certificates of obligation.
In order to complete the projects as scheduled, preliminary engineering and other work needs to begin.
Staff recommends passing the attached bond reimbursement resolution to allow work to begin now. Staff
recommends waiting until January/February 1996 to actually issue the debt. Construction bids will have been
received at that time allowing for a more accurate bond issue amount.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
none
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City has cash balances available to begin paving for these projects without hindering the City's ability to

PERTAINING TO THE ENCROACHMENT OF SIDEWALKS INTO THE

DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Georgetown, has received an application for a license to encroach
into the side public utility easements; and
WHEREAS, in order for a license to be granted by the City Council of the City of
Georgetown, the Council must make certain findings of fact; and
WHEREAS, after hearing the application of Gregory G. Hall to encroach into the side
public utility easements, the City Council of the City of Georgetown, Texas, finds the following
facts:
1. That there are no utilities which would be interfered with by the utilization of the
property in its present status.
2. That there are no utilities which would interfere with the utilization of the
property in its present status.
3. That the proposed sidewalks intrude into the public utility easements to such a
degree that it is not economically feasible to remove the part of the structure
within the easement.
4. That the land use in the neighborhood appears to be stable and the use to which
this property is being put is not likely to change within the foreseeable future and
is similar to other uses in the neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, the City Council after hearing the application and finding the specific facts

plicants of the reasonable use of their property.
2. The fact that the land use is not likely to change within the foreseeable future and
that it is not economically feasible to remove the part of the sidewalk within the
easement does provide a basis for granting the license necessary for the -
preservation and enjoyment of the substantial property rights of the applicants.
3. The fact that the use of the easement area by the property owners does not in-
terfere with the utilities or access to the utilities and is not detrimental to the
public health, safety or welfare or injurious to the property in the area; and
WHEREAS, the applicants agree to accept the terms of the license agreement as presented
to them.

Council meeting September 26, 1995 Item No.
AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET
SUBJECT: Consideration of granting a certificate of occupancy to allow a model home to
operate at 1000 Woodview Drive
ITEM SUMMARY: At the August 1, 1995, meeting of the Sign Review Board, the Board
considered and denied a request for a variance to the sign standards for a model home sign to
be located on a residential lot. During the discussion, the Board expressed concern about the
location of a model home on the lot that was the subject of the sign variance. This lot is located
at 1000 Woodview Drive in the Thousand Oaks Subdivision. The property is zoned RS,
Residential Single Family. The property to the east, along Leander Road is zoned C-1, Local
Commercial, and RM-1, Multifamily zoning exists north of Leander Road. Further, this lot is
the only single family residential lot in the Thousand Oaks Subdivision that has frontage on
Leander Road, a major arterial. The property owner, Buffington Homes, requested their permit
on May 9, 1995, and notified the City's Building Inspections Department at that time that they
intended to use this property as a model home for a period of 12 to 18 months The Building
Inspections Department has worked with this home builder during the construction of the home
with the understanding that it will operate as a model home under the policy that is currently in
place. At this time, the home has had its final inspection and received a temporary certificate
of occupancy to operate as a model home.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Residents of the Thousand Oaks Subdivision have submitted
a petition asking that the model home not be permitted to open and operate at 1000 Woodview
Drive. An exhibit has been prepared which illustrates the location of the petition signatories.
The petition and exhibit are part of the workshop agenda item.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
COMMENTS: Staff presented this issue to the Planning and Zoning Commission at their
meeting of September 5, 1995. The Commission chose not to make a recommendation regarding
the operation of the model home at 1000 Woodview Drive. The City Council at their September
121 1995, meeting, voted to suspend the approval for the operation of the model home at 1000
Woodview Drive until it could consider the matter at a workshop session at the current meeting.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: To permit the model home at 1000 Woodview to operate for
a period of 12 months. No other model homes will be permitted within the City limits until the
Zoning Ordinance revision is approved by the City Council.
