City Releases Draft Zoning Map as part of Denton Code 2030 Multiple Open Houses to be held to Engage Residents

DENTON, TX, April 13, 2018 – The City of Denton has released the draft zoning map component of the Denton Code 2030 project. The draft map includes updated zoning districts for every property in Denton.

The draft zoning map is an important piece of the overall effort to make comprehensive updates to the Denton Development Code (DDC). The DDC outlines the rules and processes that regulate where and what type of development can occur. Through Denton Code 2030, the City is working to update the DDC to be more customer-friendly and provide a strong foundation for all development in Denton. As part of the update to the DDC, zoning districts were consolidated, renamed, and developed to better fit with the community vision, goals, policies, and strategies identified in the Denton Plan 2030. The draft zoning map is the application of the new zoning districts across Denton.

“Updating the zoning districts and developing a new zoning map are integral steps in the Denton Code 2030 project,” said Director of Development Services Scott McDonald. “And the draft zoning map represents a change, even if it is a minimal change, for every property owner in Denton.”

To rollout the draft zoning map and other DDC updates, the City is hosting seven open houses throughout April and May. All citizens are invited to attend any of the meetings, but open houses have been scheduled at various sites throughout the city for convenience. Property owners can also provide feedback online at www.DentonCode2030.com.

“We want every property owner to be aware of the Denton Code 2030 project, the draft zoning map, and what changes will impact their property,” said McDonald. “We also want to provide ample opportunities for engagement, feedback, and discussion, so we invite every property owner to attend any or all of the open houses.”

Property owners interested in learning more about the draft zoning map and how their property will be rezoned can go to www.DentonCode2030.com and click on icon labeled “Zoning Map.”

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

SUBJECT: Provide information about the gas well inspection program and updates to the gas well locator map.

DISCUSSION: There have been a number of initiatives completed within Gas Well Inspections over the last several months. Council approved the contract for inspections services with Modern Geosciences on October 24, 2017. City of Denton Gas Well Inspections staff completed the 2017 semiannual inspections during the remaining months of 2017 while Modern Geosciences completed initial mapping and database work. Scheduling for Modern Geosciences inspections began in early 2018, and continues to date.

Once the first round of inspections was completed by Modern Geosciences, staff worked with the consultant to finalize the reporting format and then began to work with the City of Denton’s Public Communication and Technology Services departments to revise Denton’s gas well locator map so that both City of Denton and Modern Geosciences inspection reports could be viewed on a per well and per operator basis. The revisions are finished, and the inspection reports from the City of Denton and Modern Geosciences continue to be uploaded as they are completed. Due to inspection schedules and timing, all wells will not have an inspection report currently. However, as time goes on, inspection reports for the entire well inventory will be completed. Please keep in mind that on-site inspections only occur for wells that are within the City limits.

Inspection reports can now be viewed on an individual well basis directly from the map, or can be viewed by using the “search for wells” tool on the right of the main Gas Well Inspections web page: http://gis.cityofdenton.com/CODPublic/gaswell.html. As an example, highlight “endeavor” under operator and click the search button. All endeavor wells will be shown in a list, and the ones that have a “notepad” icon are the wells that have been inspected. Click on the notepad for a particular well, and all inspection reports can be downloaded for viewing. As new inspections occur in the future, they will be added to the list in chronological order, allowing the user to see current and any historical reports. Staff would like to acknowledge and thank Rod Weatherby in Gas Well Inspections, Kevin Babcock in Technology Services, and Kevin McGinnis in the Communications Office for all their efforts in revising the web page. Staff members are currently working on a list of completed inspections by date that will be added to the web page so users can quickly see the dates that inspections have been completed.

As a quick summary of activities, there were 497 inspections completed by Denton staff for the second semiannual inspection event that was completed in December 2017. The first semiannual inspection event for 2018 is underway, and 203 inspections have been completed to date. Denton staff has also completed 581 “spot inspections” (quick onsite inspection events) since January 1, 2018.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

SUBJECT: North Lakes Park Dog Park

BACKGROUND: Due to the success of the Wiggly Field Dog Park and the community’s request for an additional park on the northern side of town, the Parks and Recreation Department planned to install a dog park at North Lakes Park. A North Lakes Park Master Plan (Exhibit A) dated 2014, identified a site for the dog park. Dunaway Associates was hired to design a parking lot, but not the dog park itself. At the time, it was anticipated that Parks and Recreation staff would complete the grading, fencing, sod, irrigation and flat work to construct the new dog park. As seen in Exhibits B and C, the proposed location of the parking lot adjacent to the Linda McNatt Animal Care and Adoption Center. This location is the same property that was discussed at the City Council meeting on April 10, 2018, regarding the potential sale of 10.3 acres (Exhibit C) of frontage property along Highway 77. Currently, Parks and Recreation has $387,388.02 in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and an additional $355,000 identified for park improvements in the 2014 Bond Program. While final costs are unknown at this time, two parking lots were designed in 2015 that would support either 36 or 153 spaces. The larger parking lot that proposes the construction on 153 parking spaces seems to be more than is needed to provide for the dog park. A clarification on parking needs will be made in order provide an adequate number of parking spaces. Parks and Recreation staff is re-instating the contract with Dunaway Associates to complete the design of the dog park and prepare documents in order to publicly bid the project. It is anticipated that the design will be completed this summer and construction would begin in the fall. Once a design is received, staff will provide an Informal Staff Report (ISR) with an update on the project.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

SUBJECT: Highway 77 Property Presentation Follow-up

BACKGROUND: Staff from Parks and Recreation presented a number of scenarios in which the 10.3 acres along Highway 77 could be sold for development purposes. During the presentation a number of questions were asked and this ISR is providing a follow-up response.

1. If the property is sold and the trail needs to be moved, do we have to refund the TXDoT grant?  According Exhibit A - Advance Funding Agreement (Page 16 – Section 10, Project Maintenance highlighted in yellow), if the City decides to sell the property, we would have to refund all grant funding.  Staff has reached out to TXDot for some additional information regarding the potential option of moving the trail and to get clarification if the entire grant had to be refunded if a small portion of the trail was impacted. As of the time of this report, this information was not available. A follow-up ISR will be provided to City Council once information is received.

2. What are the current steps to move forward with construction of the North Lakes Dog Park?  In 2016, City Council was informed that the dog park would be completed in 6-9 months. To date, the project has not started.  Parks and Recreation is in the process of getting a quote for the design of the dog park. This would include a conceptual plan, opinion of probably cost and construction drawings.  Once the above steps are finalized and funding for the project has clarified, we will move forward with bidding the project.  Staff is work diligently to get this project completed as soon as possible.  A separate ISR is included in the April 13, 2018, Friday Report to provide additional information on this project.

The proposed location of the two variations of parking lots are adjacent to the Linda McNatt Animal Care and Adoption Center. This location is the same property that was discussed at the City Council meeting on April 10, 2018, regarding the potential sale of 10.3 acres of frontage property along Highway 77.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

SUBJECT: Speed limits along roadways in the City of Denton.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: During concluding items of the March 20, 2018 City Council meeting, Council Member Hudspeth inquired if a city-wide speed limit analysis could be performed. City-wide speed limit studies are recommended to be conducted every 5-7 years; staff is expecting to propose a city- wide speed limit study in the next 18-24 months after construction on major thoroughfares and arterials is completed.

Speed limits are established based on engineering studies that include speed surveys to determine the 85th percentile speed limit. The 85th percentile speed is the speed at which 85%of the drivers drive safely and comfortably and is the basis to determine speed limits. The posted speed limits on all City and Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) streets is determined using a process that is followed by other agencies throughout the nation and is in accordance with the state and Federal guidelines. Currently the City has approximately 1,350 lane miles of streets and TxDOT has 240 miles of streets within the City limits.

BACKGROUND: A speed limit study is initiated when there are capacity enhancements along a thoroughfare (i.e. street widening). For example, when State Highway 380 was widened recently, TxDOT conducted a speed limit study and it was determined that the speeds be increased to 40 MPH. When the Mayhill and Bonnie Brae projects are complete, the City will initiate a speed study through these corridors to determine the appropriate speed limits. A citywide speed limit study of major arterials and thoroughfares is recommended every 5-7 years to determine the appropriate speeds as conditions change within a community. The cost of the speed study is estimated to cost $70,000-$80,000. A Citywide speed study has not recently been conducted in Denton due to the constant roadway construction activity in the community. The roadway construction affects the driver behavior due to detours, lane closures, and other factors which does not provide a true representation of the appropriate speed of a road. Staff recommends proposing a city-wide speed limit study in the next 18-24 months after construction on major thoroughfares and arterials is completed. Speed limits along City and State roadways are typically established based on engineering studies. The primary criteria used in establishing a speed limit is called the 85th percentile. In the case of local residential streets, the prima facie speed limit (not posted) is consistent with state minimum speed limit of 30 miles per hour in accordance with the Texas Transportation Code.

Use of the 85th percentile speed concept is based on the theory that:  the large majority of drivers: o are reasonable and prudent o do not want to have a crash

Date: April 13, 2018 Report No. 2018-044

o desire to reach their destination in the shortest possible time  a speed at or below which 85% of people drive at any given location under good weather and visibility conditions may be considered as the maximum safe speed for that location.

The results of numerous and extensive “before-and-after” studies substantiates the general propriety and value of the 85th percentile criterion. Statistical techniques show that a normal probability distribution will occur when a random sample of traffic is measured. From the resulting frequency distribution curves, one finds that a certain percentage of drivers drive too fast for the existing conditions and a certain percentage of drivers travel at an unreasonably slow speed compared to the trend of traffic. Most cumulative speed distribution curves “break” at approximately 15% and 85% of the total number of observations (see Figure). Consequently, the motorists observed in the lower 15% are considered to be traveling unreasonably slow and those observed above the 85th percentile value are assumed to be exceeding a safe and reasonable speed. Because of the steep slope of the distribution curve below the 85th percentile value, it can readily be seen that posting a speed below the critical value would penalize a large percentage of reasonable drivers. The example illustrated in adjoining figure shows that a speed posted for 7 MPH below the 85th percentile speed would unfairly penalize 25% of the drivers considered to be driving at a reasonable and prudent speed. Therefore, for purposes of speed zoning, the maximum posted speed should be as near as possible to the 85th percentile value, and whenever minimum speed zones are used, the minimum posted speed should be within 5 MPH of the 15th percentile value. Experience proves these findings valid and shows that the 85th percentile speed is a characteristic of traffic speeds that most closely conforms to a safe and reasonable speed limit. As discussed earlier, speed limits are established by conducting speed surveys calculated at the 85th percentile. The speed limit is usually rounded to the 5 MPH increment that is just higher or lower than the 85% (unless the 85% is calculated at a 5MPH increment). Other factors that can be considered in lowering a speed limit less than the 5MPH increment are:

 roadway pavement width of 20ft or less,  horizontal and vertical curves,  hidden driveways and other roadside developments,  high driveway density,  a high crash history,  substantial pedestrian activity,  rural residential or development area and,  lack of striped and improved shoulders.

Date: April 13, 2018 Report No. 2018-044

The State of Texas considers these other factors as being a means of establishing a speed limit up to 10MPH (12MPH for locations with a crash rate higher than the statewide average) lower than the 85th percentile speed.
