  • Chapter 10-Environment
    The definition of the word “environment” varies depending upon the context, but in general, it is the aggregate of surrounding things, conditions, or influences, i.e. the surroundings. These surroundings may be natural or man-made, physical or perceived. The environment in which we live affects our quality of life. This Chapter discusses a variety of environmental factors including air quality, climate change, planning and environmental linkages, sustainability, and context sensitive solutions. AIR QUALITY KTMPO is bisected by IH 35, one of the nation’s busiest interstate corridors. An average of 65,000 vehicles pass through this corridor daily. The Killeen and Temple urbanized areas have experienced considerable growth during the past 10 years and growth is projected to continue. KTMPO is also located between two major urbanized areas (UZA)—Austin UZA to the south and Waco UZA to the north. These factors may have an impact on the air quality of the KTMPO region. As a result, KTMPO has been actively researching and monitoring air quality information to incorporate into regional planning efforts. Air Quality Standards Ozone Monitoring Station: Temple Georgia C1045 The Clean Air Act, which was last amended in 1990, requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) (40 CFR part 50) for pollutants considered harmful to public health and the environment. The Clean Air Act identifies two types of national ambient air quality standards. Primary standards provide public health protection, including protecting the health of "sensitive" populations such as asthmatics, children, and the elderly. Secondary standards provide public welfare protection, including protection against decreased visibility and damage to animals, crops, vegetation, and buildings.

  • Ord 2004-06 Comprehensive Plan; Exhibit A.Pdf
    Village 0Salado Texas FART ONE: THE FOUNDATION The Comprehensive flan Document f urpose The state of Texas has established laws with regard to the way in which incorporated communities can ensure the health, safety and welfare of their citizens. State law gives communities the power to regulate the use of land, but only if such regulations are based on a plan. Specifically, the law states: The governing body of a municipality may adopt a comprehensive plan for the long­ range development of the municipality. ..A municipality may define the relationship between a comprehensive plan and development regulations and may provide standards for determining the consistency required between a plan and development regulations. Chapter 219.002 of the Texas Local Government Code There are two interrelated purposes of a Comprehensive Plan; one, it allows the citizens of a community to create a shared vision of what they want the community to become, and two, it establishes ways in which a community can effectively realize this vision. The Village of Salado is fortunate in that this comprehensive plan process has been initiated early in the community's development. Although Salado has a rich history and has been well-populated for many years, the formal incorporation of the Village occurred just over one year ago. Therefore, while many communities must concentrate their efforts on correcting past mistakes, Salado can concentrate its efforts on ensuring future successes. A f olic~ Guide It is important to recognize the difference between a Comprehensive Plan and the actual regulations that implement the Comprehensive Plan. The Village staff and Board of Aldermen should use the Plan as a policy guide; that is, the recommendations contained within the Plan should be followed when making decisions about the Village's growth and development.

Denton, Texas August, 1992 Antle, Michael L., Progressivism/Prohibition and War: Texas, 1914-1918. Master of Science (History), August, 1992, 157 pp., bibliography, 66 titles. This thesis focuses upon the impact of war upon the progressive movement in Texas during 1914-1918. Chapter I defines progressivism in Texas and presents an overview of the political situation in the state as relating to the period. Chapter II discusses the negative impact that the first two years of World War I had upon the reform movement. Chapter III examines the revival of the Anti-Saloon League and the 1916 Democratic state convention. Chapter IV covers the war between James E. Ferguson and the University of Texas. Chapter V tells how the European war became a catalyst for the reform movement in Texas following America's entry, and its subsequent influence upon the election of 1918. Chapter VI concludes that James E. Ferguson's war with the University of Texas as well as World War I were responsible for the prohibitionist victory in the election of 1918.
