Christel Pettinos - Fwd: Resignation Regrets
>>> "Rebecca Carter" <rebeccaacarter@msn.com> 8/21/2008 5:48 PM >>>
Amanda,
I will be calling you personally with this information, but just in case I don't get in touch with you this evening:
I am currently expecting our third child. It is a high-risk pregnancy with some complications. I am on 24/7 monitoring, have a
pump and line at all times, and occasionally need IV treatments. My situation may improve, but based on my last two
pregnancies, the likelihood is very slim, and I am never quite sure, day to day, what I will be able to do. I have been debating
whether or not I could continue serving the KCB Board with any efficiency, and I have come to the decision that it would be
better, due to the uncertainty of my situation, to resign and give the Board time to find a more available member.
I will be emailing you shortly with the files I updated for the Recycling program and also with a short compilation of "green"
municipal incentives for business owners that might be useful.
With deepest regrets and apologies,
Rebecca Carter

Consider approval of an ordinance electing for the City to make current service and prior service contributions to the
City's account in the municipal accumulation fund of the Texas Municipal Retirement System at the actuarially
determined rate of total employee compensation and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
This agenda item is an ordinance that is recommended by the Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS) that allows
the Mayor and Council to authorize the future rates increases required for the funding of the city's retirement program.
Currently, the City's rate is 11.99% and effective January 2009, the rate will increase to 14.84% as recommended for
funding the FY 2008/2009 Budget based upon the recent change in the TMRS actuarial funding method. This rate
increase will put the City's rate over the statutory maximum of 13.5% as allowed in the TMRS Act. City Council has the
authority to increase the statutory maximum from 13.5% to 15.5% or to remove the statutory maximum altogether(with
this ordinance) and monitor the rates as needed on an annual basis.
Funds are budgeted in each Department's salary line items for the retirement contribution.

11,000-square-foot painted, exposed aggregate, tilt wall
building.

HISTORY: In October of 2002, Council approved a Site Plan request to
allow a 1,558 square foot expansion to the existing 29,500
square foot church building. In addition, 24 new parking
spaces were added to accommodate the enlarged facility.
The overall approved construction package included a
porte cochere, a new rotunda, a breezeway connecting
the main church to an existing 11,000 square foot building to
ITEM # 4
Page 2of 3
its rear, and colonnade walls provided to add architectural
interest. The breezeway has yet to be constructed.
TRANSPORTATION: Heartz Road is a C2U, two-lane undivided roadway built to
standard in a 50 foot right–of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North-Single family residential; PD-166-SF-7
South –Single family residential; SF-7
East –Single family residential; SF-7
West –Single family residential; SF-7
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan, as amended, shows the property
as suitable for a variety of institutional uses including a
church.
DISCUSSION: This amendment to an existing church Site Plan would allow
construction of a 70 foot tall bell tower on this 5.9 acre site.
The bell tower is proposed to serve two purposes. One, the
addition of a bell tower to an existing church will enhance
the church presence in the neighborhood, and is a typical
structure found on many church properties. Two, the bell
tower will serve as a “stealth” structure allowing T-Mobile to
locate cell phone antennas at the top of the tower in an
area warranting additional telephone service in a non-
threatening, and aesthetically pleasing manner. Because it
will be enclosed within the bell tower, the antennas will be
hidden from public view. The bell in the structure is non-
functional and will not ring. The equipment needed to
service the antennas will be located on the ground in a 20
foot by 20 foot enclosure shown on the amending Site Plan.
Screening walls shielding this equipment will be identical to
the existing building and again, will not impose upon
neighborhood quality. The antennas themselves are 6 feet
tall, 7 inches wide and 3 inches thick. The three antennas
proposed to be located within the tower will be the same
basic color as the tower, and, as mentioned above, totally
screened from public view.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
ITEM # 4

Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request subject to the following

HISTORY: In October of 2002, City Council approved a Site Plan
request to allow a 1,558 square foot expansion to the
existing 29,500 square foot church facility. In addition, 24
new parking spaces were added to accommodate the
enlarged building. The overall approved development
package included a porte cochere, a new rotunda, a
breezeway connecting the main church building to an
existing 11,000 square foot building to its rear, and
colonnade walls provided for architectural interest. The
breezeway has yet to be constructed.
TRANSPORTATION: Heartz Road in a C2U, two-lane undivided roadway built to
standard in a 50 foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North-Single family residential; PD-166-SF-7
South –Single family residential; SF-7
East –Single family residential; SF-7
West –Single family residential; SF-7
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan, as amended, shows the property
as suitable for a variety of institutional uses including the
church and ancillary uses.
DISCUSSION: This is a request to allow T-Mobile to locate three cell tower
antennas inside a 70 foot tall church bell tower and place
appropriate radio equipment cabinets at its base. The tower
is being constructed in order to provide a stealth facility for
the antenna request.
The base is proposed to be a 20 foot square area with a 9
foot tall masonry screening wall to hide the equipment. The
wall will be constructed out of the same material as the
building, painted in the same colors, thereby being
compatible with the existing structure. The applicant has
provided simulation photos showing what the tower (and
construction materials to be used) will look like when
competed.
Placed inside the bell tower, the antennas will be hidden
from public view, thereby eliminating any possible visual
distraction to the surrounding neighborhood. There will be
three antennas, each 6 feet tall, 7 inches wide, and 3 inches

thick. They will be located 67 feet above grade to ensure
proper service is provided to customers. The bell tower itself
will be non-operational with no ringing of bells.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request subject to the following
condition:
1. Delineate the dimensions of the planting area and number of wax
myrtles being located on the east side of the building (to replace landscaping
removed by this proposal).
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Recommend approval of the request
2. Recommend disapproval of the request
3. Recommend modification of the request
4. Take under advisement for reconsideration at a later date

HISTORY: The Old Coppell Master Plan was accepted by City Council in
April of 2002. On May 13, 2003, Council amended the Land
Use component of the 1996 Comprehensive Plan and
enlarged the Historic Overlay district, as proposed in the Old
Coppell Master Plan and as recommended in April, 2003 by
the Planning Commission. On January 11, 2005, the HO
(Historic Overlay) district, containing various base zonings, was
changed to a straight H (Historic) district, which includes
standards for construction, design guidelines and use
regulations for Old Coppell.
ITEM # 6
Page 2 of 4
On the property to the east of proposed Lot 2, a rezoning to
PD-108R6-H (Planned Development-108 Revision 6-Historic)
was approved on July 12, 2005, to allow the development of
two medical/office buildings totaling 33,100 square feet.
The first of these has been constructed and is currently
occupied. The property to the south of proposed Lot 2 was
rezoned to PD-108R8-H on August 14, 2007. This zoning
attached a concept plan for seven lots on approximately
10.4 acres and a detail plan for two 21,050-square-foot two-
story retail/hotel buildings on two 1.15 acre lots, a 25,141-
square-foot two-story event/conference center on a 2.8
acre lot, and a 7,812-square-foot pet bed/breakfast on a
1.04 acre lot.
TRANSPORTATION: Coppell Road is a two-lane unimproved asphalt roadway
within a variable width right-of-way. The current preliminary
plans show this to be improved to a 37-foot two-lane
concrete street with on-street parking beginning south of this
property. Bethel Road is a two-lane asphalt road contained
within a variable width right-of-way. Freese and Nichols has
prepared the construction plans, which are now 90%
complete, showing variable right-of-way widths and
approximately 28 feet of pavement with eight angled
parking spaces along the north side across from this request.
Construction is scheduled to begin in the third quarter of
2009.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North – retail; H (Historic)
South – residential; H (Historic)
East – residential; H (Historic)
West – parking lot & residential; H (Historic)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for a
use allowed in the Historic District (office and museum uses
are appropriate).
DISCUSSION: There are two structures proposed to be relocated to this site
with a restroom/storage facility to be constructed in the
future. The first of the buildings is the 1,150-square-foot
Kirkland House. This house was built circa 1902-1904 and is
one of the oldest remaining structures in Coppell, if not the
oldest. The City received a grant from the Price Daniel
Foundation last year for the purchase and restoration of the
ITEM # 6
Page 3 of 4
structure. The current location of the Kirkland house is at the
end of South Coppell Road, on the south side of West Bethel
Road at the signalized intersection. The city entered into a
lease agreement with the Wilson family for the property
located on the southeast corner of West Bethel and South
Coppell (the easternmost segment) Roads, where the
windmill is located. The Kirkland house is proposed to be
relocated east of the windmill, fronting West Bethel Road
and will be located approximately 30 feet (measured from
the proposed back of curb) from future West Bethel Road.
This will be required to be listed as a PD condition as it
exceeds the maximum permitted setback distance within
the H District of 15 to 25 feet. After it has been restored, it will
be a meeting place for the Historic Society and will have
antiques and memorabilia on display.
The second structure is a replica 600-square-foot Minyard’s
Grocery Store. The store, along with the antique
merchandise and equipment was donated to the city by
the Minyard’s family. It was recently moved from the
southwest corner of South Freeport Parkway and West Bethel
Road to the rear of the Service Center and is being
temporarily stored until the site plan is approved and the
setbacks finalized. It will then be moved to the south side of
the windmill and will front onto South Coppell Road. The
store is proposed to be used as a museum to display what
was typically found in a grocery store of the early 1930’s.
The proposed restroom/storage facility will be secondary to
the two structures and will match the architecture of the two
buildings. This is labeled as “future”, as the timing for its
construction has not yet been determined.
There are six parking spaces proposed on the south side of
the property. There are eight parking spaces proposed to
be constructed directly across Bethel Road from this
property with the Bethel Road improvement project
currently scheduled for the third quarter of 2009. The
combination of the two parking areas will provide sufficient
parking for the two uses.
The landscaping is in conformance with the Historic District
regulations, except for the 10-foot perimeter landscaping on
the south property line of Lot 1, noted as a PD condition. The
required landscape area and trees are proposed to be
provided elsewhere on site. At the request of the Historic
Society, two Chinese Viburnums will be transplanted from
the existing Kirkland house site. A Vitex accent tree is
proposed off the northeastern corner of the proposed house
ITEM # 6
Page 4 of 4
location to replicate the one at its current site. There are a
total of 11 overstory trees proposed throughout.
A paint color analysis will be performed in the near future to
determine the exact color the Kirkland house was initially
painted, and the elevations will be relabeled to reflect the
color that is determined. The Minyard Grocery Store will be
repainted white after repair and restoration is complete.
There are still some outstanding minor technical revisions and
a few substantive changes needed; therefore, staff is
recommending approval subject to a list of conditions.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending approval of this request subject to the following
conditions being met:
1) Include a PD Conditions Table listing: 1) Front yard setback exceeds 25
feet (measured from back of proposed curb) & 2) Ten-foot perimeter
landscaping area is not being completely provided on the south
property line and will be provided elsewhere on site.
2) Include setback dimensions taken from the front of the proposed
buildings to the back of the proposed curbs along West Bethel and
South Coppell Roads, and include parking lot dimensions (width of
drive approach and aisle).
3) Recalculate the perimeter landscaping provided and change number
within the area provided in chart.
4) Include the existing tree on the east side of the Kirkland house and
redistribute the proposed trees along this property line.
5) Label walkway materials on site plan and note that they will be lighted
inconspicuously.
6) Revise the Kirkland house elevations to remove the proposed railing
from the front porch, relabel the proposed paint colors from “white” to
“color to be determined upon paint analysis” and relabel the
proposed roofing material to “new architectural shingles.”
7) Correct misspellings and punctuation (museum, Spiraea, Burford,
future) and ensure acreage is labeled correctly on site plan.

HISTORY: This property is currently Lot 9, Block A, of the Stringfellow
Addition, a residential subdivision filed in November 1961.
Since the initial subdivision, different portions have been
replatted. Nash Manor divided one of the original lots into
multiple lots, and the Stringfellow Addition Replat amended
the lot line between Lots 4 & 5, Block B. The property to the
east was replatted in July 2005 to allow for the construction of
the Nationwide Insurance Office on Lot 1R, Block A. A Replat
for the Ark Church, located on the southwest corner of Holly
and Sandy Lake, was approved as Lot 1R, Block B, Stringfellow
Addition. The subject property was developed in 1970 as a
single family residence, and a rezoning to PD-233-Retail was

West - Manufactured Home Park - 2F-9 (Two Family-9 District)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Master Plan designates this area as
Residential - Medium Density.
DISCUSSION: The new owner of this property desires to demolish the
existing 60-year-old home, which fronts on Ruby Road,
overlooking the loading docks for the million square foot
Container Store warehouse, and construct a new home
fronting onto the Deer Run residential subdivision. Deer Run
subdivision was designed with Hawken Drive abutting this
property, thus allowing direct access from this property into
this subdivision. It is the owner’s intent to provide driveway
access to Hawken Drive and construct a screening wall
along Ruby Road, to align with the existing screening wall in
Deer Run. If reoriented in this manner the new address
would be 551 Hawken Drive. There are many mature trees
within this 0.7 acre lot, which the owner plans to preserve
with this redevelopment.
This house was constructed prior to the incorporation the city
of Coppell, and therefore this property has never been
platted. Per the provisions of Sec. 12-39-1 of the Zoning
Ordinance:
“Creation of building site.
No permit for the construction or expansion of any
building shall be issued until a building site is
established by a lot which is a part of an approved
plat filed in the plat records of the appropriate
county.”
Thus, requiring this Minor Plat.
Although the owner has a preliminary concept of the home
he desires to build, architectural plans have not been
prepared. This Minor Plat serves to designate the front yard
along Hawken Drive to align with the front yard setback of
abutting lots, establishes building lines and provides for the
dedication of 10 feet of right-of-way for Ruby Road. The
approval of this plat will be subject to various technical
requirements which are more appropriately addressed

during the design phase for this type of single lot residential
development.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:

A. Revisions needed to the plat:
1. Evaluate the need for the extension of the five foot

ORDINANCE
Consider approval of an ordinance approving a negotiated settlement with Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division,
regarding the Rate Review Mechanism filing and finding the attached Tariffs implementing new rates within the
corporate city limits of the City of Coppell are just and reasonable; and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
Atmos requested to increase rates to generate an additional $33.5 million in revenues through the new Rate Review
Mechanism that replaced the more unfavorable GRIP ratemaking process. The original rate increase has been
negotiated down to reflect a rate increase that will result in an increase in revenues of approximately $20 million. The
average monthly residential gas bill will increase $0.81. Our consultants agree Atmos can justify an increase in rates to
generate an additional $20 million in revenue and has recommended approval of the attached settlement.
Staff recommends approval.

RE: FINAL ACTION BY OCTOBER 1ST – Atmos RRM Settlement
The ACSC Settlement Committee (Jay Doegey – Arlington, Danny Reed – Fort Worth,
Mark Israelson – Plano, Don Wilson – Eastland, Cathy Cunningham – various ACSC cities, Phil
Boyd – Lewisville, Rodney Adams – Irving), with the advice and input of ACSC consultants and
lawyers, has worked to resolve the Company's pending $33.5 million Rate Review Mechanism
("RRM") rate increase request without the necessity of a protracted and costly contested case
proceeding. The attached tariff that reflects rates that will increase Atmos' revenues by $20
million. The negotiated result represents a 35 percent reduction in Atmos' requested rate
increase. The monthly bill impact for an average residential customers is $0.81.
The RRM process was created by Atmos and ACSC to eliminate the piecemeal
ratemaking GRIP process in favor of an expedited rate review controlled by cities The
Company's filing is the first filing pursuant to the agreed RRM process. The ACSC Executive
Committee recommends approval of the negotiated resolution because it represents an outcome
that is equal to or better than the outcome expected from a lengthy contested case proceeding,
and maintains cities' role as a regulator of natural gas rates.
Please schedule consideration of the ordinance for your next available council
meeting. Final council action to approve the ordinance must take place by October 1st. To
assist you, several documents are attached:
• An ordinance setting new rates. The approved Ordinance should include the
attached Tariff ("Attachment A" to the Ordinance) and Proof of Revenues
("Attachment B")
• A model staff report
• An explanation of key provisions of the RRM tariff and filing
Please contact Kristen (512/322-5820, kdoyle@lglawfirm.com) immediately if your city
is unable to meet the October 1st deadline for final action. Once final action has been taken by
your city, please forward a copy of the ordinance to Atmos Mid-Tex and to our paralegal, Gary
Stiffler (fax number: 512/472-0532, gstiffler@lglawfirm.com).
Rate Review Mechanism
Fact Sheet
*The Rate Review Mechanism (RRM) was created as part of a collaborative agreement between
ACSC and Atmos. It replaces the unworkable and contentious Gas Reliability Infrastructure
Program (GRIP) surcharge process.
*The RRM authorizes cities to meaningfully review and dispute the company’s annual rate
filings in an expedited rate proceeding at the city level. This authority was lacking under the
GRIP process.
*The RRM will function as a substitute for future GRIP filings during the three-year trial period.
*The RRM permits the Company to seek an annual review of its revenues, estimated cost of
operations, and capital investments. In most cases, the company cannot seek rate adjustments
greater than 5 percent. The Company must provide evidence as part of the annual review
process that Cities can assess and, if necessary, challenge.
*The RRM process allows Atmos to seek a surcharge from ratepayers if its anticipated expenses
exceed its anticipated revenues for a 12 month period. However, if the Company's revenues
exceed its authorized rate of return, it must issue refunds.
Costs Expressly Prohibited from Recovery Under the RRM:
First class air-fare, travel, meals or entertainment for employee's spouse, alcohol, sports
events, entertainment, arts and cultural events, sponsorship of sports, arts or cultural events, and
social club membership dues.
The RRM is applicable only to the Company's base rates - the cost of delivering natural
gas to customers. The commodity price of natural gas is a pass-through cost to customers
that can change monthly based upon the price of natural gas.
Process for RRM Filing:
Cities have 90 days to review the Company's RRM filing. After the 90-day "Review
Period," the 30-day "Response Period" allows Cities to work with the Company regarding issues
identified by the city during the Review Period.
Atmos Mid-Tex' first RRM was made April 14, 2008. In subsequent years, Atmos will
make its RRM filing with Cities on or after April 1st of each year. (The filing date is referred to
as the "Annual Evaluation Date" in the tariff.)
The City and the Company commit to act collaboratively during this process. However,
if Cities and the Company cannot come to agreement at the end of the Response Period, the
Company may appeal a city's action or inaction on the RRM to the Railroad Commission.
