MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Rektorik and a second by Councilmember Harvell, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to approve the Consent Agenda. The motion carried unanimously. REGULAR AGENDA 1. Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding the Annual Review of the Comprehensive Plan and the Annual Review of the Unified Development Ordinance. Justin Constantino and Lauren Hovde, Planning and Development, presented the Annual Review of the Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), highlighting some of the City’s major initiatives this past year. The review was organized by project type and assesses significant actions and accomplishments during the past year that further the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan. Also, the published report is interactive and links to detailed information on the City’s website, including the original plans, maps, and a more detailed implementation status. The Annual Review is required by the UDO as an on-going effort to keep College Station's development codes current and relevant. The Planning and Zoning Commission heard this presentation at their December 20, 2018 meeting and recommended approval of the review. At approximately 6:52 p.m., Mayor Mooney opened the Public Hearing. There being no further comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 6:52 p.m. RM011019 Minutes Page 3 MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Nichols and a second by Councilmember Rektorik, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to approve the Annual Review of the Comprehensive Plan and the Annual Review of the Unified Development Ordinance. The motion carried unanimously. 2. Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding Ordinance No. 2019-4066 amending the Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use & Character Map from Wellborn Estate to Wellborn Commercial for approximately 7.37 acres, generally located on the west side of FM2154, approximately 500-feet south of Barron Cut-off Road. Jade Broadnax, Planning and Development, stated that the applicant is requesting to amend the Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use & Character Map from Wellborn Estate to Wellborn Commercial on two tracts of land, one of which is not within city limits. This development is intended to serve the nearby residents and provide compatible uses within the context of the surrounding area. The 4.0 acre tract is located outside the city limits in the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and is surrounded on all sides by city property as a result of entering into a ten year non-annexation agreement in 2011. This non-annexation agreement states that should “development” occur, the property effectively begins voluntary annexation. A Comprehensive Plan Amendment is not considered “development,” however, a proposed rezoning or plat will constitute a petition for voluntary annexation. The property owner is pursuing the Comprehensive Plan Amendment for increased marketability. If the proposed Wellborn Commercial land use amendment is granted, the applicant is prepared to begin the annexation process. Downstream sewer capacity is limited in this area, and downstream sanitary improvements will be required by the developer if peak sanitary sewer demands increase beyond the originally anticipated Wellborn Estate land use assumptions. The utility demand model uses the most intense predicted uses that may occur at the time of development, and the most intense land uses allowed by the proposed designation exceeds current sewer capacity for these tracts without downstream improvements. Sewer capacity will be a consideration at the time of rezoning if/when a rezoning is requested. While there are sewer capacity constraints on the site, staff is supportive of the Comprehensive Plan amendment given these concerns are addressed at the time of rezoning and/or platting. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item on December 20, 2018 and voted 6-0 to recommend approval. Staff also recommends approval. At approximately 7:05 p.m., Mayor Mooney opened the Public Hearing. There being no further comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 7:07 p.m. MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Rektorik and a second by Councilmember Nichols, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to adopt Ordinance No. 2019- 4066 amending the Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use & Character Map from Wellborn Estate to Wellborn Commercial for approximately 7.37 acres, generally located on the west side of FM2154, approximately 500-feet south of Barron Cut-off Road. The motion carried unanimously. 3. Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding Ordinance No. 2019-4067 amending Appendix A, “Unified Development Ordinance,” Article 4, Zoning RM011019 Minutes Page 4 Districts,” Section 4.2, “Official Zoning Map,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, by changing the zoning district boundaries from R Rural and GC General Commercial to GC General Commercial for Tower Point Subdivision Phase 13C, Block 1, Lot 1, being approximately 2.47 acres located at 4320 State Highway 6 South, generally located near the intersection of Arrington Road and State Highway 6 in the northern portion of the Tower Point Subdivision. Lauren Hovde, Planning and Development, stated that staff considered this to be a “clean up” item. Ms. Hovde, explained that the requested rezoning amends approximately 2,600 square feet of the 2.47 acre lot from R Rural to GC General Commercial consistent with the majority of the lot. Staff believes this portion of the lot was left R Rural (A-O Agricultural-Open at the time) during the 2001 rezoning of the property due to either surveyor error or a mistaken floodplain / tributary location. The subject tract is primarily zoned GC General Commercial and has been platted and prepared for commercial development on site. Also, having confirmed the absence of floodplain on the rear portion of the lot, the remaining non-commercial portion has been deemed as also physically suitable for GG General Commercial zoning and development. The site will utilize the existing Tower Point detention and drainage system; therefore, on site detention will not likely be required upon site planning. Being located on the State Highway 6 South frontage road and having convenient access from the Barron Road and William D Fitch Parkway freeway exits, makes the commercial component well suited for the physical location. Having access via Private Access Easements to both State Highway 6 South, a Freeway, and Arrington Road, a two-lane major collector on the Thoroughfare Plan, encourages intense commercial activity. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their December 20, 2018 meeting and recommended 6-0 for approval. Staff also recommends approval. At approximately 7:29 p.m., Mayor Mooney opened the Public Hearing. There being no further comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 7:31 p.m. MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Dennis Maloney and a second by Councilmember Brick, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to adopt Ordinance No. 2019-4067 amending Appendix A, “Unified Development Ordinance,” Article 4, Zoning Districts,” Section 4.2, “Official Zoning Map,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, by changing the zoning district boundaries from R Rural and GC General Commercial to GC General Commercial for Tower Point Subdivision Phase 13C, Block 1, Lot 1, being approximately 2.47 acres located at 4320 State Highway 6 South, generally located near the intersection of Arrington Road and State Highway 6 in the northern portion of the Tower Point Subdivision. The motion carried unanimously. 4. Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding the appointment of Councilmembers to boards and commissions. The following appointments were made: Architectural Advisory Committee: Elianor Vessali Art Council of the Brazos Valley: Bob Brick, Patricia Burchfield and Hans Hammond Audit Committee: Elianor Vessali and Dennis Maloney RM011019 Minutes Page 5 BioCorridor Board: Linda Harvell Budget and Finance: John Nichols and Jerome Rektorik BVEDC: Dennis Maloney BV Wide Area Communication System: Elianor Vessali Compensation and Benefits: Elianor Vessali Economic Development: Jerome Rektorik RELLIS External Advisory Council: Elianor Vessali Spring Creek Local Government Corporation: Jerome Rektorik MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Rektorik and a second by Councilmember Nichols, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to approve appointments list above.

Presentation, possible action, and discussion on future agenda items and review of standing list of Council generated agenda items: A Council Member may inquire about a subject for which notice has not been given. A statement of specific factual information or the recitation of existing policy may be given.

The purpose of these services is to provide information and geotechnical engineering recommendations relative to: ■Subsurface soil conditions ■Excavation considerations ■Groundwater conditions ■Foundation design and construction ■Site preparation and earthwork The geotechnical engineering scope of services for this project included the advancement of one test boring to a depth of 20 feet below existing site grade. Maps showing the site and boring locations are shown in the Site Location and Exploration Plan sections, respectively. The results of the laboratory testing performed on soil samples obtained from the site during the field exploration are included on the boring logs in the Exploration Results section of this report. SITE CONDITIONS The following description of site conditions is derived from our site visit in association with the field exploration and our review of publicly available geologic and topographic maps. Item Description Parcel Information The project is located at the East quadrant at Highway 6 and Texas World Speedway in College Station, Texas. The coordinates are approximately 30.530512° N 96.227125° W. (See Exhibit D) Existing Improvements Existing improvements in the project site vicinity include Highway 6 and Frontage 6.

Existing Topography Relatively level. Geology The site is located on the Manning Formation. The Manning Formation consists of quartz sand, clay, and lignite. It is on the order of 250 feet thick in full section. The formation grades generally from fine to medium grained sands. This formation also consists of fossil wood. A detailed geologic fault investigation and study of the site geology were beyond the scope of this study. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Our initial understanding of the project was provided in our proposal and was discussed in the project planning stage. Our final understanding of the project conditions is as follows: Item Description Information Provided Information for this proposal was provided by Jeffrey Gerber via email on January 25, 2018. Project Description The proposed project is located between Highway 6 and Frontage 6 Road East near Texas World Speedway. Proposed Structure The project includes an entry monument sign for the City of College Station. Building Construction Slab-on-grade foundation is planned for the proposed project. GEOTECHNICAL CHARACTERIZATION Subsurface Profile We have developed a general characterization of the subsurface soil and groundwater conditions based upon our review of the data and our understanding of the geologic setting and planned construction. The general characterization of the subsurface soil consists of clayey sand to a depth of 8 feet underlain by sandy lean clay to a depth of approximately 13 feet underlain by clayey sand that extends to the termination depth of the boring. The geotechnical characterization forms the basis of our geotechnical calculations and evaluation of site preparation and foundation option. As noted in General Comments, the characterization is based upon a single exploration point across the site, and variations are likely. Geotechnical Engineering Report City of College Station Monument Sign ■ College Station, Texas March 6, 2018 ■ Terracon Project No. A1185005 Responsive ■Resourceful ■Reliable 3 Conditions encountered at each boring location are indicated on the individual boring log shown in the Exploration Results section and is attached to this report. Stratification boundaries on the boring logs represent the approximate location of changes in native soil types; in situ, the transition between materials may be gradual. Groundwater Conditions The boreholes were observed while drilling and after completion for the presence and level of groundwater. The water level observed in the boreholes can be found on the boring logs in Exploration Results. Groundwater was not observed in the boring while drilling, or for the short duration the borings could remain open. However, this does not necessarily mean the borings terminated above groundwater, or the water levels summarized above are stable groundwater levels. Due to the low permeability of the soils encountered in the borings, a relatively long period may be necessary for a groundwater level to develop and stabilize in a borehole. Long term observations in piezometers or observation wells sealed from the influence of surface water are often required to define groundwater levels in materials of this type. Groundwater level fluctuations occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of rainfall, runoff and other factors not evident at the time the borings were performed. Therefore, groundwater levels during construction or at other times in the life of the structure may be higher or lower than the levels indicated on the boring logs. The possibility of groundwater level fluctuations should be considered when developing the design and construction plans for the project. GEOTECHNICAL OVERVIEW The near surface sandy soils could become unstable with typical earthwork and construction traffic, especially after precipitation events. The effective drainage should be completed early in the construction sequence and maintained after construction to avoid potential issues. If possible, the grading should be performed during the warmer and drier time of the year. If grading is performed during the winter months, an increased risk for possible undercutting and replacement of unstable subgrade will persist. Additional site preparation recommendations including subgrade improvement and fill placement are provided in the Earthwork section. The General Comments section provides an understanding of the report limitations. Geotechnical Engineering Report City of College Station Monument Sign ■ College Station, Texas March 6, 2018 ■ Terracon Project No. A1185005 Responsive ■Resourceful ■Reliable 4 EARTHWORK Earthwork will include clearing and grubbing, excavations and fill placement. The following sections provide recommendations for use in the preparation of specifications for the work. Recommendations include critical quality criteria as necessary to render the site in the state considered in our geotechnical engineering evaluation for foundations, floor slabs, and pavements. Site Preparation Prior to placing fill, existing vegetation and root mat should be removed. Complete stripping of the topsoil should be performed in the proposed building areas. Due to the increased silt and sand content of the surficial soils in portions of the site, proper compaction may be difficult to achieve. In addition, construction during and soon after wet weather periods may encounter difficulties due to wet and soft surficial soils becoming a general hindrance to equipment as a result of rutting and/or pumping of the soil surface. This condition is primarily due to their lack of cohesion (low clay content) and little to no confining pressure near the ground surface. If the subgrade cannot be adequately compacted to the minimum densities as described above, one of the following methods should be used to improve the soils: 1) removal and replacement with select fill, 2) chemical treatment of the soil to dry the subgrade, or 3) drying by natural means if the schedule allows. Based on our experience with similar soils, chemical treatment is the most efficient and effective method to increase the supporting value of wet and soft subgrade such as that observed at this site. Chemical treatment may be necessary to depths of approximately one to two feet or greater of the near-surface soils, depending on the condition of the subgrade at the time of construction. We suggest that a cost be included in the construction budget for chemical treatment of the soils using a lime-flyash mixture to produce drying and to increase the workability of the soil if the subgrade is wet and/or soft at the time of construction. We recommend that this cost be in the form of a contingency or allowance to be used if needed. Fill Material Types Fill required to achieve design grade should be classified as structural fill and general fill. Structural fill is material used below, or within 10 feet of structures, pavements or constructed slopes. General fill is material used to achieve grade outside of these areas. Earthen materials used for structural and general fill should meet the following material property requirements: Fill Type USCS Classification Acceptable Location for Placement Select fill CL and/or SC (10≤PI≤20) Must be used to construct the building pad under the floor slab and for all grade adjustments within the building area. Geotechnical Engineering Report City of College Station Monument Sign ■ College Station, Texas March 6, 2018 ■ Terracon Project No. A1185005 Responsive ■Resourceful ■Reliable 5 Fill Compaction Requirements Structural and general fill should meet the following compaction requirements. Item Description Fill lift thickness Fill soils should be placed on prepared surfaces in lifts not to exceed 8 inches loose measure, with compacted thickness not to exceed 6 inches. Compaction requirements n The select fill and on-site soils should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the Standard Effort (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density. n The select fill and on-site sand soils should be moisture adjusted to within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content. n The on-site clay soils should be moisture conditioned between optimum and +4 percent of the optimum moisture content. Prior to any filling operations, samples of the proposed borrow and on-site materials should be obtained for laboratory moisture-density testing. The tests will provide a basis for evaluation of fill compaction by in-place density testing. A qualified soil technician should perform sufficient in- place density tests during the filling operations to evaluate that proper levels of compaction, including dry unit weight and moisture content, are being attained. Earthwork Construction Considerations Shallow excavations, for the proposed structure, are anticipated to be accomplished with conventional construction equipment. Upon completion of filling and grading, care should be taken to maintain the subgrade water content prior to construction of floor slabs. Construction traffic over the completed subgrades should be avoided. The site should also be graded to prevent ponding of surface water on the prepared subgrades or in excavations. Water collecting over, or adjacent to, construction areas should be removed. If the subgrade freezes, desiccates, saturates, or is disturbed, the affected material should be removed, or the materials should be scarified, moisture conditioned, and recompacted, prior to floor slab construction. As a minimum, excavations should be performed in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR, Part 1926, Subpart P, “Excavations” and its appendices, and in accordance with any applicable local, and/or state regulations. Construction site safety is the sole responsibility of the contractor who controls the means, methods, and sequencing of construction operations. Under no circumstances shall the information provided herein be interpreted to mean Terracon is assuming responsibility for construction site safety, or the contractor's activities; such responsibility shall neither be implied nor inferred. Geotechnical Engineering Report City of College Station Monument Sign ■ College Station, Texas March 6, 2018 ■ Terracon Project No. A1185005 Responsive ■Resourceful ■Reliable 6 Construction Observation and Testing The earthwork efforts should be monitored under the direction of the Geotechnical Engineer. Monitoring should include documentation of adequate removal of vegetation and top soil, proof- rolling and mitigation of areas delineated by the proof-roll to require mitigation. Each lift of compacted fill should be tested, evaluated, and reworked as necessary until approved by the Geotechnical Engineer prior to placement of additional lifts. Each lift of fill should be tested for density and water content at a frequency of at least one test for every 2,500 square feet of compacted fill in the building area. One density and water content test for every 50 linear feet of compacted utility trench backfill. In areas of foundation excavations, the bearing subgrade should be evaluated under the direction of the Geotechnical Engineer. In the event that unanticipated conditions are encountered, the Geotechnical Engineer should prescribe mitigation options. In addition to the documentation of the essential parameters necessary for construction, the continuation of the Geotechnical Engineer into the construction phase of the project provides the continuity to maintain the Geotechnical Engineer’s evaluation of subsurface conditions, including assessing variations and associated design changes. SHALLOW FOUNDATIONS If the site has been prepared in accordance with the requirements noted in Earthwork, the following design parameters are applicable for shallow foundations.

A clear distance between footings of one footing size of the larger of the two footings should not produce overlapping stress distributions and would essentially behave as independent foundations. 4.Differential settlements may result from variances in subsurface conditions, loading conditions and construction procedures. 5.Lateral loads transmitted to the shallow spread footings will be resisted by a combination of soil- concrete friction on the base of the footing and passive pressure on the sides of the footing. The passive pressure along the exterior face of the footings should be neglected within the upper 3 feet due to surface effects. 6.Structural uplift loads on the shallow footings may be resisted by the weight of the foundation plus the weight of any soil directly above the foundation. The ultimate uplift capacity of shallow footings should be reduced by an appropriate factor of safety to compute allowable uplift capacity. Design Parameters - Uplift Loads Uplift resistance of spread footings can be developed from the effective weight of the footing and the overlying soils. As illustrated on the subsequent figure, the effective weight of the soil prism defined by diagonal planes extending up from the top of the perimeter of the foundation to the ground surface at an angle, q, of 20 degrees from the vertical can be included in uplift resistance. The maximum allowable uplift capacity should be taken as a sum of the effective weight of soil plus the dead weight of the foundation, divided by an appropriate factor of safety. A maximum total unit weight of 100 pcf should be used for the backfill. This unit weight should be reduced to 40 pcf for portions of the backfill or natural soils below the groundwater elevation.

The base of all foundation excavations should be free of water and loose soil, prior to placing concrete. Concrete should be placed soon after excavating to reduce bearing soil disturbance. Care should be taken to prevent wetting or drying of the bearing materials during construction. Excessively wet or dry material or any loose/disturbed material in the bottom of the footing excavations should be removed/reconditioned before foundation concrete is placed. If unsuitable bearing soils are encountered at the base of the planned footing excavation, the excavation should be extended deeper to suitable soils, and the footings could bear directly on these soils at the lower level or on lean concrete backfill placed in the excavations. This is illustrated on the sketch below.

We anticipate that the finished floor elevation for the proposed structure is planned to be within approximately one foot above existing grade. If cuts and/or significant fills are planned, Terracon should be notified to review and/or modify our recommendations given in this subsection. The near-surface subsurface soils at this site generally exhibited a negligible to medium expansion potential. Based on the information developed from our field and laboratory programs and on method TEX-124-E in the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Manual of Testing Procedures, we estimate that the subgrade soils at this site exhibit a Potential Vertical Rise (PVR) of about one inch or less. To provide uniform support to the floor slab we recommend that a minimum 18-inch thick pad of select fill material be constructed immediately beneath the slab. The select fill pad should extend a minimum of 5 feet beyond the edge of the slab. The final exterior grade adjacent to the slab should be sloped to promote effective drainage away from the structures. Select fill should be utilized for all grade adjustments within the proposed monument sign area. The subgrade and select fill soils should be prepared as outlined in the Earthwork section of this report, which contains material and placement requirements for select fill, as well as other subgrade preparation recommendations. Based upon the above recommendations, the grade beams of the slab-on-grade foundation may bear within properly compacted select fill soils, provided that the building pad and subgrade soils are prepared as outlined in the Earthwork section of this report. The slab-on-grade foundation may be designed using the following parameters provided that the building subgrade is prepared as discussed above: Description Design Parameters Select fill building pad Minimum Thickness of 18 inches Estimated PVR One inch or less Climatic rating 25 Design Plasticity Index 20 Soil support index 0.96 Minimum perimeter grade beam embedment depth 18 inches below exterior grade Allowable bearing capacity Dead Load Plus Sustained Live Load: 800 psf Total Net Load: 1,200 psf Geotechnical Engineering Report City of College Station Monument Sign ■ College Station, Texas March 6, 2018 ■ Terracon Project No. A1185005 Responsive ■Resourceful ■Reliable 10 The parameters indicated for the above design conditions are based on criteria published by the Building Research Advisory Board (B.R.A.B.). The B.R.A.B. method is essentially an empirical design technique and the parameters provided are based on our interpretation of the project soil borings and criteria published in the B.R.A.B. design manual. The slab-on-grade foundation system should be designed to tolerate the anticipated soil movement and provide satisfactory support to the proposed monument sign. The foundation should have adequate exterior and interior grade beams to provide sufficient rigidity to the foundation system such that the slab deflections that result are considered tolerable to the supported structure. Grade beams may be thickened and widened at interior column locations to serve as spread footings at areas of concentrated loadings. The minimum perimeter grade beam depth recommendation provided above is to reduce surface water migration below the foundation elements and to develop proper end bearing and is not based on structural considerations. Post construction settlements for the described slab-on-grade foundation system should be one inch or less, provided that the subgrade soils are prepared as outlined herein and that the select fill is properly placed and compacted in accordance with the recommendations contained in this report. Settlement response of the foundation system is expected to be influenced more by the quality of construction and fill placement than by soil-structure interaction. Construction Considerations – Slab-on-Grade Foundation System Excavations for the grade beams should be performed with equipment capable of providing a relatively clean bearing area. The bottom 6 inches of the excavation should be performed using a smooth-mouthed bucket or hand labor. The excavations should be neatly excavated and properly formed. Debris in the bottom of the excavations should be removed prior to steel placement. Water should not be allowed to infiltrate foundation excavations. To reduce the potential for groundwater seepage into the excavations and to minimize disturbance to the bearing area, we recommend that steel and concrete be placed as soon as possible after the excavations are completed and properly cleaned. Excavations should not remain open overnight. The bearing surface should be evaluated immediately prior to placing concrete. GENERAL COMMENTS As the project progresses, we address assumptions by incorporating information provided by the design team, if any. Revised project information that reflects actual conditions important to our services is reflected in the final report. The design team should collaborate with Terracon to confirm these assumptions and to prepare the final design plans and specifications. This facilitates the incorporation of our opinions related to implementation of our geotechnical recommendations. Any information conveyed prior to the final report is for informational purposes only and should not be considered or used for decision-making purposes.

Natural variations will occur between exploration point locations or due to the modifying effects of construction or weather. The nature and extent of such variations may not become evident until during or after construction. Terracon should be retained as the Geotechnical Engineer, where noted in the final report, to provide observation and testing services during pertinent construction phases. If variations appear, we can provide further evaluation and supplemental recommendations. If variations are noted in the absence of our observation and testing services on-site, we should be immediately notified so that we can provide evaluation and supplemental recommendations. Our scope of services does not include either specifically or by implication any environmental or biological (e.g., mold, fungi, bacteria) assessment of the site or identification or prevention of pollutants, hazardous materials or conditions.

Coordinates are obtained with a handheld GPS unit (estimated horizontal accuracy of about ±10 feet). If elevations and a more precise boring layout are desired, we recommend borings be surveyed following completion of fieldwork. Subsurface Exploration Procedures: We advance the borings with a track-mounted rotary drill rig using continuous flight augers (solid stem and/or hollow stem as necessary depending on soil conditions). Four samples are obtained in the upper 10 feet of each boring and at intervals of 5 feet thereafter. In the thin-walled tube sampling procedure, a thin-walled, seamless steel tube with a sharp cutting edge is pushed hydraulically into the soil to obtain a relatively undisturbed sample. In the split-barrel sampling procedure, a standard 2-inch outer diameter split-barrel sampling spoon is driven into the ground by a 140-pound automatic hammer falling a distance of 30 inches. The number of blows required to advance the sampling spoon the last 12 inches of a normal 18-inch penetration is recorded as the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) resistance value. The SPT resistance values, also referred to as N-values, are indicated on the boring logs at the test depths. We observe and record groundwater levels during drilling and sampling. For safety purposes, all borings are backfilled with auger cuttings after their completion. The sampling depths, penetration distances, and other sampling information are recorded on the field boring logs. The samples are placed in appropriate containers and taken to our soil laboratory for testing and classification by a geotechnical engineer. Our exploration team prepares field boring logs as part of the drilling operations. These field logs include visual classifications of the materials encountered during drilling and our interpretation of the subsurface conditions between samples. Final boring logs are prepared from the field logs. The final boring logs represent the geotechnical engineer's interpretation of the field logs and include modifications based on observations and tests of the samples in our laboratory. Laboratory Testing The project engineer reviews the field data and assigns various laboratory tests to better understand the engineering properties of the various soil strata as necessary for this project.

Concrete may be placed when the ambient temperature is above 35 F and rising, the ambient temperature being taken in the shade and away from artificial heat. Concrete shall not be placed when the forecast predicts 72 continuous hours of temperatures less than 32 F. The Contractor shall have available a sufficient supply of pre-approved cotton mats, polyethylene sheeting or other pre-approved covering materials to immediately protect concrete if the air temperature falls to 32 F, or below, before concrete has been in place for less than four (4) hours. Such protection shall remain in place during the period the temperature continues below 32 F, or for a period of not more than five (5) days. Neither salt nor other chemical admixtures shall be added to the concrete to prevent freezing. The Contractor shall be responsible for the quality and strength of concrete under cold weather conditions and any concrete damaged by freezing shall be removed and replaced at the Contractor’s expense. The surface of all concrete in bents, piers, culvert walls, retaining walls, bottom of slabs, and similar formed concrete shall be maintained at 40 F or above for a period of 72 hours from the time of placements. The temperature of all concrete, including the bottom slabs (footings) of culverts placed on or in the ground, shall be maintained above 32 F for a period of 72 hours from time of placement. Protection shall consist of providing additional covering, insulated forms or other means, and if necessary, supplementing such coverings with artificial heating. Revised – 8/2012 B/CS Unified Specifications 7 Section 03 30 00 Concrete 6.Warm Weather Precautions The following precautions shall be taken in placing, curing, and protecting the concrete when local weather records show that the maximum daily temperature is likely to exceed 95 F. The forms and the subgrade, subbase or base course shall be sprinkled with water immediately before placing the concrete. The concrete shall be placed at the coolest temperature practicable, and in no case shall the temperature of the concrete exceed 95 F when deposited on the subgrade, subbase or base course. The temperature of the concrete shall not exceed 85 F for bridge slabs or in the top slab of direct-traffic culverts. The aggregates and/or mixing water will be cooled as necessary to maintain the concrete temperature within the specified maximum. Concrete shall be placed in the forms continuously and rapidly at a rate of not less than 100 feet of paving lane per hour. The surface of the newly laid pavement shall be kept damp by means of a water fog or mist applied with pre-approved spraying equipment until the pavement is covered by the pre- approved curing medium. 7.Concrete shall be deposited as nearly as practicable in its final position to avoid segregation due to rehandling or flowing. The deposition shall be at a rate that allows the concrete to be plastic at all times and permits flow readily into the space between the rebar. Retempered concrete shall not be used and concrete shall not have a free fall of more than five (5) feet, except in the case of thin walls such as in culverts or as specified in other items. Any hardened concrete spatter ahead of the plastic concrete shall be removed. 8.Concrete deposition shall be a continuous operation until completed at the panel or section. Cold joints in a monolithic placement shall be avoided. The sequence of successive layers or adjacent portions of concrete shall be such that they can be vibrated into a homogeneous mass with the previously placed concrete. Not more than one (1) hour shall elapse between adjacent or successive placements of concrete. 9.Concrete shall be thoroughly consolidated and vibrated in the forms with pre-approved mechanical vibrators of a type considered in the design of forms. G.FINISHING Unless noted otherwise, apply an ordinary surface finish as the final finish to the following exposed surfaces: inside and top of inlets, inside and top of manholes, inside of sewer appurtenances, inside of culvert barrels, bottom of bridge slabs between girders and beams, and vertical and bottom surfaces of interior concrete beams or girders. An ordinary surface finish shall be as follows: Chip away all loose or broken material to sound concrete where porous, spalled, or honeycombed areas are visible after form removal. Repair spalls by saw-cutting and chipping at least 1/2 in. deep, perpendicular to the surface to eliminate feather edges. Repair shallow cavities using a latex adhesive grout, cement mortar, or epoxy mortar as pre-approved. Repair large areas using concrete as directed or pre-approved. Clean and fill holes or spalls caused by the removal of form ties, etc., with latex grout, cement grout, or epoxy grout as pre-approved. Fill only the holes. Do not blend the Revised – 8/2012 B/CS Unified Specifications 8 Section 03 30 00 Concrete patch with the surrounding concrete. On surfaces to receive a rub finish in accordance with Item 427, “Surface Finishes for Concrete,” chip out exposed parts of metals chairs to a depth of 1/2 in. and repair the surface. Remove all fins, runs, drips, or mortar from surfaces that will be exposed. Smooth all form marks and chamfer edges by grinding or dry-rubbing. Ensure that all repairs are dense, well bonded, and properly cured. Finish exposed large repairs to blend with the surrounding concrete where a higher class of finish is not specified. Finish of Bridge Slabs and related features shall be in compliance with TxDOT Standard Specifications for Construction and Maintenance of Highways, Streets, and Bridges (2004) Section 420.4. F.CURING The concrete shall be kept wet by spraying with water after attaining its final set and before removing the forms. Bottom forms supporting floor or roof slabs shall remain in place for not less than seven (7) days. The concrete shall have attained a compressive strength of not less than 2,000 psi prior to removal of bottom forms. All other forms may be removed twenty-four hours after completion of concrete placement, providing the weather has allowed the concrete to attain its final set in less than five (5) hours. The forms shall be left on for forty-eight (48) hours whenever the temperature of the air in the shade during pouring is 90 F or over. Curing shall be continued for five days after placement of concrete. This may be done with wet mats, with two applications of Type II (White in color) Liquid-Membrane-Forming Compound meeting requirements of ASTM C309, or with waterproof curing paper meeting the requirements of ASTM C171. G.CONSTRUCTION JOINTS Construction joints will be made only at locations shown on the Plans unless written permission is granted by the Engineer to make additional joints. Unless otherwise required, make construction joints square and normal to the forms. Use bulkheads in the forms for all vertical joints. Thoroughly roughen the top surface of a concrete placement terminating at a horizontal construction joint as soon as practical after initial set is attained. Thoroughly clean the hardened concrete surface of all loose material, laitance, dirt, and foreign matter. The surface is to be dampened just prior to casting of concrete against the joint.

PART 2 – PRODUCTS N/A PART 3 – EXECUTION 3.1 GENERAL A.It is the responsibility of the Contractor to utilize whatever techniques are necessary to address erosion problems as they occur during construction. B.Siltation control and sediment trapping devices shall be installed prior to site clearing, grading or utility construction operations. All devices should be positioned so as to effectively remove silt from storm water before it leaves the site. Of particular concern, are gravel or stone blankets placed at construction traffic exits and entrances. These controls should be closely monitored to see that they trap sediment before it reaches the existing street and drainage system. C.Construction activities should be phased to expose a minimum of graded area at one time. Earth exposed by the construction process shall be re-vegetated every two weeks until vegetation is established. Re-vegetation shall require seeding, hydromulching or sodding. Fresh growth of vegetation shall eliminate the need for additional re-vegetation but does not constitute stabilization. D.Should a construction process remove any portion of the perimeter controls, the controls should be replaced in accordance with the TCEQ guidelines. Prior to the completion of the project, all bare areas shall be re-vegetated with a cellulose fiber hydromulch seeding process or sodded. E.Siltation control devices placed at storm drain inlets and culverts shall be removed by the Contractor once the site has been stabilized. 3.2 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION A.The contractor shall familiarize himself with the erosion control requirements of TCEQ. The site superintendent, or his representative, shall make a visual inspection of all structural and/or natural controls and newly stabilized areas as required by TCEQ, especially after a rainfall to insure that all controls are maintained and properly functioning. Any damaged controls shall be repaired prior to the end of the work day, including re-seeding and mulching or re-sodding if necessary. All inspections shall be documented with a written report. Reports shall include the effectiveness of erosion control measures, construction activities conducted since the last report and their location. Reports shall be maintained by the Contractor along with the Erosion Control Plan per the TCEQ guidelines. B.The contractor is responsible for the ECP. The contractor shall continuously update the plan with all changes. Areas already stabilized shall be noted on the plan. All sediment trapping devices shall be installed as soon as practical after the area has been disturbed (never more than 14 days). All sediment trapping devices shall be cleaned when the sediment level reaches 25% capacity. Sediment shall be disposed of by spreading on site or hauling away if not suitable for fill. Approved – 8/2012 B/CS Unified Specifications 3 Section 31 25 13 Erosion and Sedimentation Control C.The Contractor shall be responsible for any and all materials, improvements, and maintenance activities necessary to keep dust, silt, and mud from leaving the work zone, including being tracked by vehicles traveling throughout the zone. D.Should, in the opinion of the Owner, the Contractor fail to prevent the escape of dust or contain silt and mud within the project, after due notification by the City Representative, Owner forces will be used to clean up those affected areas, and the cost of same will be deducted from the contract. E.Prior to Substantial Completion, the Contractor shall verify that no dust, silt, or mud exists within the work zone in deposits deeper than two inches (2”) as a result of the contractor’s containment procedures. Should the Contractor claim final completion without removing such deposits, they will be removed by Owner forces and the cost of which shall be deducted from the contract.

PART 3 – EXECUTION 3.1 CONSTRUCTION METHODS A. EXECUTION: Immediately after the finished grade has been approved, begin hydro- mulching operations to reduce erosion and excessive weed growth. Hydraulic equipment used for the application of fertilizer, seed and slurry of prepared wood fiber mulch shall have a built-in agitation system with an operating capacity sufficient to agitate, suspend and homogeneously mix a slurry containing up to forty (40) pounds of fiber plus a combined total of 70 pounds of fertilizer solids for each 100 gallons Revised – 8/2012 B/CS Unified Specifications 3 Section 32 92 13 Hydro-Mulch Seeding of water. The slurry distribution lines shall be large enough to prevent stoppage. The discharge line shall be equipped with a set of hydraulic spray nozzles which provide even distribution of the slurry on the area to be seeded. The slurry tank shall have a minimum capacity of 800 gallons and shall be mounted on a traveling unit, which may either be self- propelled or drawn with a separate unit which will place the slurry tank and spray nozzles within sufficient proximity to the areas to be seeded, so as to provide uniform distribution without waste. The Engineer may authorize equipment with a smaller tank capacity, provided the equipment has the necessary agitation system and sufficient pump capacity to spray the slurry in a uniform coat. Care shall be taken that the slurry preparation takes place on the site of the work. The slurry preparation should begin by adding water to the tank when the engine is at half throttle. When the water level has reached the height of the agitator shaft, good re- circulation shall be established and seed shall be added. Fertilizer shall then be added, followed by wood pulp mulch. The wood pulp mulch shall only be added to the mixture after the seed and when the tank is at least one-third filled with water. The engine throttle shall be opened to full speed when the tank is half filled with water. All the wood pulp mulch shall be added by the time the tank is two-thirds to three-fourths full. Spraying shall commence immediately when the tank is full. The operator shall spray the area with a uniform visible coat, by using the green color of the wood pulp as a guide. B. APPLICATION: The contractor shall obtain approval of hydro-mulch area preparation from the Engineer prior to application. Operators of hydro-mulching equipment shall be thoroughly experienced in this type of application. Apply the specified slurry mix in a motion to form a uniform mat at the specified rate. Operators shall keep the hydro-mulch within the areas designated and keep from contact with other plant material. Immediately after application, thoroughly wash off any plant material, planting areas or paved areas not intended to receive slurry mix. Keep all paved and planting areas clean during maintenance operations. Contractor shall keep hydro-mulching within the areas designated and keep from contact with other plant material. If in the opinion of the Engineer, unplanted skips and areas are noted after hydro- mulching, the contractor shall be required to seed the unplanted areas with the grasses that were to have been planted at no additional cost to owner. C. CONTRACTOR’S MAINTENANCE & GUARANTEE PERIOD: The hydro-mulch seeding shall be adequately watered until established. Any areas damaged by erosion or areas that do not have an acceptable turfing shall be redone to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Maintenance of grass areas shall be for 60 days after the completion of the project and shall consist of watering, weeding, repair of all erosion and reseeding, as necessary to establish a uniform stand of the specified grasses. Contractor shall guarantee growth and coverage of hydro-mulch planting under this contract to the effect that a minimum of 95% of the area planted will be covered with the specified planting after 60 days. The Contractor shall be responsible for one (1) mowing every two weeks between the months of April to October. The Contractor shall also be responsible for one (1) mowing every three (3) weeks between the months of November to March. In addition, the Contractor shall water the entire sodded and hydro-mulched areas to a saturated depth of one (1) inch at least once a week between the months of April to September and at least once a month between the months of October to March. Revised – 8/2012 B/CS Unified Specifications 4 Section 32 92 13 Hydro-Mulch Seeding The Contractor shall make a second application of specified hydromulch planting those bare areas not meeting specified coverage as determined by the Engineer. Such replanting is to be performed within 60 days of initial application and upon notification by the Engineer to replant.

Presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding approval of a Real Estate Contract in the amount of $21,400 that will convey 0.2699 acres of City-owned land, being a remainder created by the future extension of General Parkway to Cain Road. Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Core Services and Infrastructure Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the contract. Summary: The City acquired Lot 1, German Acres for the General Parkway Extension North Project in May of 2018, at the direction of City Council. The project includes the extension of General Parkway from its existing northern terminus to Cain Road as the railroad crossing currently located at Cain Road and FM 2154 is being closed due to safety reasons, with a new railroad crossing to be opened at Deacon Drive and FM 2154, as part of the current UP Deacon/Cain Railroad Crossing Project. The extension of General Parkway will allow for improved transportation flow in the area after the closing of the existing railroad crossing. The entire parcel (Lot 1, German Acres) was purchased due to estimated damages associated with the purchase of the needed right-of-way for the roadway extension. Once the roadway extension design was finalized, two remainder parcels were created on either side of the required right-of-way. Based on Local Government Code, the City was able to enter into negotiations with the adjacent landowner for the sale of the southwest remainder parcel. The sale of this remainder parcel will allow the City to recoup some funds associated with the purchase of the entire tract, as well as reduce future maintenance costs for the City. The sale of the 0.2699 acre parcel will include the reservation of a 0.0864 acre Public Utility Easement along the new roadway for future utilities.

In September 2013,Council adopted an amendment to the Subdivsion Regulations contained in the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO)by creating a section entitled “Single-Family Residential Parking Requirements for Platting.”This section resulted from the efforts of a Joint Neighborhood Parking Task Force, consisting of Council and Planning &Zoning Commission members,which sought solutions to concerns regarding emergency access and on-street parking along residential streets.The section seeks to proactively limit potential issues by providing options for developers of new subdivisions to choose from a menu of residential parking options which include:providing wider streets,narrower streets,standard width streets with parking removal, wide lot frontages, visitor alley-fed off-street parking, or visitor parking areas. The developer of the Ace Townhomes subdivision choose to construct a standard width residential street and remove some on-street parking to comply with the Single-Family Residential Parking Requirements for Platting section.The no parking signs were installed with the construction of the streets.The final plat for this subdivision has been approved and filed for record at the Courthouse.There are no residential units that have completed construction along these streets and this ordinance will formally implement the parking removal as proposed by the developer with the plat of the property.
