Of course, we have to be a • prepared to pay both for unprofitable efforts like parks and • even for the privilege of meeting such challenges in the courts • M and in the legislature. A limited view holds that a person needs only a home (or apartment), a place for daily activities (school, business) and a car to shuttle between them; TV cares for the remaining waking hours. Who would want to go • for a swing, a swim or a stroll? Conversely, when the park is M nearby, it can provide the opportunity for recreation to sup - plement the above regimen. • Some of the most livable cities devote a sizeable percentage of their area to parks, lakes, etc., and have long recognized human needs to be close to nature. College Station makes a • systematic effort to provide parks in proportion to its ▪ • growth. A legal system that places profits above "quality of • life" is destined to watch profits increase and "quality of life" diminish. Of course, the cost of chasing the criminal element that wants to redistribute those profits comes from • another budget. w: Is it any accident that on the reverse side of the page, the Eagle (Sept. 15) has an article saying that the crime rate in College Station has risen? A collaboration between Sam Houston State University and the Max- Planck - Institute for International Legal Systems (Freiburg, FRG) recently published (MPG Spiegel, 3/82) figures showing per capita crime rates with a four -fold excess of violent crimes in Texas versus Bade - Wurttenberg (13.4 fold excess of murders, 6 fold excess o ` obberies, etc.). The cause of such disparities was placed on several factors by the study, including greater • human isolation in Texas and the absence of inter - personal bonds. Where,, besides our several malls, can people meet • and chat? And one certainly` cannot feel any closer to nature in the mall than' in its parking lot. • We seldom are :given the chance to answer such questions • as "What is `quality of life' ?" How might it be improved? At what cost? Such questions go to the very fabric of society. If • they are ignored, the fabric is more easily torn by daily stresses. The individual is reminded of the dull ache follow- ing the 10 o'clock news, "Is this all there is to life ?" Let us support Lowell Denton and his colleagues in the Ci- ty of College Station in their effort to define and create a place fully worthy of the name "City ", complete with jogg- ing trails, local parks, pools and soccer fields.

"I started out one year (1954) watching a pair of guys — Paul Mason and Ted MacBeth," Bardell said. "In 1955, Ted left and I started helping Paul. It kept on until the mid -60s when Paul retired and I became the head statistician. I've seen every A &M game as a student or in the press box since 1949." That adds up to more than 170 football contests. Bardell's job is difficult. Every play must be scrutinized through binoculars and carefully dissected. Total yardage, the time on the clock, tacklers and individual performances — all must be taken into account. Even a punt, for instance, involves all six On Austin's right, spotter Roland Davie shouted members of the statistician team. out the names of tacklers and Austin relayed them Late in the first quarter, UTA punter Michael to reporters, while John West wrote the play -by- Horn readied to punt from his own 25- yard -line. play on a tattered Maroon typewriter.

But the job demands the utmost attention. "I probably enjoy the game more than anyone in the stands," said Bardell, who receives $25 and a free seat for each game. t'You have to see every play and you become aware of the frailties of the human being. I've seen officials mark off six yards or 4 1/2 yards on a 5 yard penalty for offsides. But that's very, very seldom. I'm surprised I don't see more of that in the heat of the moment. But the of- ficials rarely make mistakes." Bardell is still an Aggie at heart. "I was about as depressed as anyone can be after we lost to Boston College," he said. "But, I'm a realist. I don't get quite as upset about it as when I was a student. "It's a job I've enjoyed and I'll probably be here or quite awhile.

Commission tables rezoning request The College Station Planning and Zoning Com- mission has tabled a rezoning request that would change a residential parcel of land to light commer- cial for expansion of a car dealership. J.W. Wood, representing the Anderson Ridge Corp., asked the commission at its Thursday meeting for the 5.2 -acre tract northwest of Texas Avenue and Holleman Drive to be rezoned from single - family residential (R -1) to light commercial (C -3). In tabling the request, the commission cited a recently adopted amendment to the city's zoning or- ' dinance limiting C -3 lots to three acres. Wood told the commission he was requesting the change so that auto dealer Bud Ward can expand his business. Ward's car dealership lies adjacent to the ood l agreed to resubmit new plans at a later meeting with the C -3 area limited to three acres. The commission also approved on a 5 -2 vote a • preliminary plat for the second phase of the Eastmark subdivision at Southwest Parkway and the East Bypass. Commissioners Roy Kelly and Wesley Hall voted against the measure. Hall said there were too many unresolved questions uestions about signs, easements and future lot splits in the tract. The Bryan Planning Commission also met Thurs- da3 and tabled a request to review a re -plat of the Mitchell- Lawrence- Cavitt subdivision in southwest Bryan until questions about possible flood hazards can be answered. 4 ' e.

The College Station City Council Thursday authorized City Manager North Bardell to negotiate an agreement with A &M to allow the university to haul its garbage to the city landfill. In conjunction with those negotiations, both sides will also consider the feasibility of incinerating their garbage to produce electricity if an efficient plant can be built. A &M now takes its garbage to a landfill east of Easterwood Airport, but that site is nearing capaci- ty. The city has about 60 acres of landfill available. �..- That site can be used for ar(other 16 years. But if A &M's garbage is also Clispose,c1 there, the life -span drops to 10 years. J t' Because of the' ort. li a -span, Bardell said in- cinerating the garb e td f toduce electricity would be the best solutitm. 'IE. But similar proposAls in other cities have not been successful because cost - efficient plants haven't yet been designed. The university has estimated it would pay the city 4 $1.6 million over a 10 -year period to dispose of 200,000 tons of garbage at the landfill. Mayor Gary Halter, however, said the city shouldn't sign a long -term, fixed - dollar contract. 1 t. The Eagle, Saturday, November 13, 1982 t.

IL The Ec)e � c-eordc , IDoQembex .D.t CS Council approves hike pp for Lone Star By THOMAS TASCHINGER Staff Writer The College Station City Council Thursday ap- proved a rate settlement that will increase Lone Star Gas Co. charges for the average residential customer about 5.2 percent. The council approved the settlement after a last minute change in the ordinance putting the new rates into effect. One of the multiplying factors us- ed to compute the gas cost adjustment was changed from 1.04514 to 1.03514. This change means that Bryan residents will still pay an additional one per- cent surcharge tax which would have been eliminated under the proposed agreement. The settlement gives Lone Star Gas an additional $475,000 in combined revenues from Bryan and College Station. That amount is 59 percent of Lone Star's original request filed in August. That amount will give Lone Star a 7.3 percent return on its investment and a 13.29 percent return on common equity. The monthly customer service charge will in- crease from $2 to $3.50. College Station City Manager North Bardell said at the council meeting that city officials didn't think outside consultants were needed to help study the Lone Star request, but future requests should call for full audits. "The reason for that is that without the outside consultant the council asked the staff questions we couldn't answer," Bardell said. The new agreement also calls for different rates for gas purchased in winter and summer months. The base rate for 1,000 cubic feet of gas (MCF) will increase from the single rate of $2.37 per MCF to $3.45 per MCF in the summer and to $3.70 per MCF in the winter. The "gate" rate on which the GCA is computed will increase from $2.02 (MCF) to $3.18 (MCF). Lone Star will pass on or credit any savings or ex- penses above or below the $3.18 figure. Lone Star representative Dan Weber said the company bought about 94 percent of its gas from independent producers. The other six percent is bought from the Ensearch Corp., which is Lone Star's parent com- pany based in Dallas. Weber also said that gas prices in the next year would probably increase about 10 percent to 12 per- cent as compared to the the previous year's increase of 20 percent to 25 percent. 1 IL The Eagle, Friday, November 12, 1982 • Utilities rate hike granted • By THOMAS TASCHINGER Staff Writer A federal energy commission has granted Gulf States Utilities a retroactive wholesale rate hike that could increase electric bills 28 percent for residents of College Station. College Station firwnce director A.E. "Van" Van Dever Jr. said Friday he didn't know exactly how the 28 percent wholesale. increase granted to Gulf StatesAwill affect average residential customers. He did, however, term 28 percent "a reasonably good figure" for estimating individual increases. 110 Actual increases for consumers w ill depend on the amount of elec- tricity they use, he said, with some consumers likely to see mor' - than a 28 percent increase in their utili- ty bills and some less. College Station officials issued a press release Friday afternoon announcing that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission had granted. the Gulf States re- quest for the rate hike. The increase is retroactive to Ju- ly 11. VanDever said the retroac- tive charges will be spread out for utility customers over the next five months even though the city must pay a lump sum to Gulf States. Mayor Gary Halter said Friday that he wasn't opposed to granting Gulf States some form of increase because none had been granted since 1976. The wholesale rate charged by Gulf States to cities such as Col- lege Station will increase from 3.2 cents per kilowatt hour to about 4.1 cents.

He said monthly electric bills for average residential customers will increase only about half of the 28 percent figure city officials us- ed last week to describe an impen- ding rate hike. Jim McCord, a member of the city's consulting electrical firm, said a 14 or 15 percent increase is likely when College Station's wholesale supplier receives final approval of its proposed 28 per- cent rate hike. Based on that estimate, the monthly bill for an average customer who uses 1,700 kilowatt hours of electricity would increase from about $116 to $133. McCord said the city can more than make up the 28 percent wholesale increase with an average 14 percent retail increase because it has a large number of retail customers. He said final figures on the rate increase have not yet been sup- plied to College Station. Because of that, percentage increases for some consumers could be slightly higher or lower because of differ- ing amounts of usage. Gulf States Utilities, the city's wholesale supplier, is expected to 4 receive final approval for the rate hike from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Nov. 23. The rate hike will raise an addi- tional $32.6 million from the 17 cities and five cooperatives in Texas and Louisiana which are Gulf States' customers. The percentage increase is different for each entity because rates are based on demand, usage and other fac- tors.

First Boston's bid has a gross interest cost of $8,338,156 minus a premium charge of $211 for a net interest cost to the city of $8,337,945. Two other bids were received for the utility • system revenue bonds at interest rates of 9.774 per- cent and 9.779 percent. On the city's $6.59 general obligation bond issue, the council awarded the bid to syndicate- managed Rauscher- Pierce- Refnes, Inc. at an interest rate of 9.732015. Rauscher's bid has a gross interest cost of $6,553,668 minus a premium charge of $372 for a net interest cost of $6,553,295. Three other bids were also received for the general obligation bonds at interest rates of 9.75 percent 9.80 percent and 9.91 percent. City officials said they were pleased with the bids and considered the interest rates low. R. David Fetzer, president of Moroney, Beissner and Co., the bonding firm handling the issue for the city, attributed the low interest rates mostly to an all -time peak in the volume of bonds being offered now because of a new law which goes into effect Jan. 1. Because of the impending change, many cities are rushing to complete bond issues before the year ends. r ThP_ Ena to .

The Eagle, Wednesday, December 8, 1982 CS OKs system for saving energy A $9,880 energy management system for the Col- lege Station City Hall that will save $12,000 per year was approved Thursday by the City Council. The computerized system, to be installed by the National Building Automation System Service Co. of Houston, is designed to monitor overall energy 4 consumption in the building. It will adjust the temperature of the building on nights, weekends and holidays; it will ensure that all heating or cooling units are not operating at the same time; and it can be used to determine the best time for activites such as janitor work. Sherry Albrecht of the city Energy Department said utility costs for City Hall are $37,000 per year, and the new system will pay for itself in 10 months. In other business, the council denied a request by J.

Parks Director Steve Beachy said the two - story, wooden structure is four times the size of the old headquarters at 1000 Eleanor St. The first floor of the new building had' about 3,200 square feet? and the se- cond floor about 1,600 square feet. The second floor is reserved for ex- pansion of the depart- ment and will not im- mediately be occupied. The hours of opera- tion for the building have not been set, although they might be 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Beachy said the Parks and Recreation advisory board may also hold its regular meetings there. Public hearings, however, will still be held at City Hall. The building was designed by architect Don Hill and con- structed by Jan -Wic Homes Inc. Beachy said it cost about $219,000 and was financed by a bond issue. The old department headquarters will be used by the maintenance divi- sion, he said. That site has served as head- quarters since 1976. Central Park is located on the East Bypass at Krenek Tap Road. THE EAGTF, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1982 0-.5 E G w 0 N 4,20 a C o O 0+ C C woo 0.

The Eagle, Tuesday, February 22, 1983 School board for rezoning By KEN LANTERMAN Staff Writer The question of whether an eight -acre site across from A &M Consolidated High School should be rezoned for commercial use spilled over into Mon- day night's monthly meeting of the College Station School Board. After nearly two hours of debate and discussion, school trustees drafted a resolution recommending that the College Station City Council rezone the area, at FM 2818 and Welch Street, so that it is compatible with the school and the neighborhood. The resolution passed by a vote of 6 -0, with one abstention. Trustee Bill Fitch, owner of the site, abstained. Fitch presently has a request before the City Council to rezone the eight acres from non- commercial to commercial. The rezoning issue was brought before the board by Fitch. He was responding to a letter written to him by Trustee Chuck Giammona asking Fitch to present his rezoning proposal to the board. Using maps of the proposed rezoned area, Fitch explained how the commercial use of that area would not harm students. Giammona said he knew that the school board could not take any meaningful action on the zoning issue, but he felt that since it involved a site adja- cent to the school, the school board should discuss it. Fitch said he has a buyer for the site who wants to put in a combination gas station and convenience store. tir The Eagle, Tuesday, February 22, 1983 Bryan- College Station Eagle Wednesday, February 23, 1983 Page 7A 1 BRAZOS /TEXAS } Planner to recommend cit y erosion ordinance • By THOMAS TASCHINGER the Texas Aggie Book Store at 327 Staff Writer University Drive.

Energy specialist Tim Layne had been handling the job by himself, but energy auditor Valerie Bauer was hired recently to help out on the program. Bauer, 27, comes to College Station from Lans- ing, Mich., where she taught energy courses and worked as an architectural engineer. Her addition to the staff also means that the energy department can do more conservation work on city, buildings and vehicles. Layne had conducted 110 energy audits from last July to Feb. 1, but the program has proved so popular that a backlog of about 40 requests has developed. The audit is basically an inspection of single - family homes to discover methods of conserving energy through better insulation or more efficient operation of heating and cooling equipment. If all of the audit suggestions are followed, Layne said residents can save up to 25 percent of their energy expenses. The service is free for residents of single - family homes, and a briefer inspection is given to apart- ments. Businesses are charged $7 per hour for an . . audit. Appointments can be made by calling 693- 9908. _ Thu rs d Feb . a 4, t 3 . t�.� C to Students and alcohol That our schools have a problem with students who try to mix alcohol, studies, and driving is no secret. In fact, this is an even greater problem than our drug -use problem. How then, can we even consider rezoning prdberty across the street from Consolidated High School to allow the con- struction of a store that can (and will) sell alcoholic beverages?

A special workshop meeting has been set for 4 p.m. today to review the two maps and discuss the status of Plan 2000. One map has been drawn up by Samuel L. Wyse Associates and Wayne W.giYder Associates, the city's planning consultants. ivy„ The other plan has been drawn up by the city's planning staff. City Planner Al Mayo said the staff's map basically . his the same concept as the consultants' but has numerous small differences. Mayo said that when the council decides on a ten- tative map fok Plan 2000, the map will be printed and distributed. throughout the community for public comment. Mayo said the council then probably will hold at least one public hearing on the plan before it is adopted formally. He said it probably would be May before that last step is taken. Later today, the council will participate in its se- cond walking tour of the Northgate area. Last week, about 25 Northgate businessmen and members of several city boards toured the area dur- ing the day. Today's tour begins at 8 p.m. from the A &M Presbyterian Church at 301 Church Ave. Also in- vited on the tour are members of the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Zoning Board of Ad- justments and the special Northgate study commit- tee. The tours are designed to provide a first -hand look at problems such as inadequate parking, traf- fic hazards and abandoned or rundown buildings in some areas of Northgate. - ire Ec4e, Ec , uJedne�c r r cc r' rtza • Council pick s" 1t 11: planners '1na By THOMAS TASCHINGER Staff Writer The College Station City Council on Wednesday chose a pning map drawn up by the city planning staff insteadfaf one prepared by consultants for, in the city's Plan 2000. y..w The proposed' map for the new compreherl plan will now be printed and distributed throughog the community for public comment and everfµal adoption by the council. The map will be printed in about three weeks -ant at least one public hearing on it will be held beoi'e 4 160. the council formally adopts Plan 2000 this spring.... City Planner Al Mayo said the staff's map is billy slightly different from the one drawn up by Wayne W. Snyder Associates and Samuel L. Wyse Associates, the city's two consultants. Mayo said most of the differences resulted f4o43 the staff having additional or more recent inforgIA- tion than the consultants. ;;,� ,. The most serious difference between the two ygr sions concerned the Northgate area. j; The consultant's map showed high- density hous- ing in the area, but Mayo said overpopulation was the main problem in Northgate. The staff's map proposed medium density for parts of the area to alleviate sewage and parking problems. 1 Mayo also said that sewage capacity determines how land will be developed more than any otlr factor.

The proposal, which calls for rezoning eight lots on the west side of Tarrow Street between Banks and Peyton streets to single family residential lots of 5,000 and 4,000 square feet, was not the original rezoning prop- osal. The original proposal re- zoned the lots from commercial industrial to neighborhood busi- ness and single family residen- tial districts. This proposal was initiated by the City Council after 65 resi- dents brought a petifion to the Council saying that liquor sales at a restaurant in the area were causing problems in the neigh- borhood. The plan was changed by the commission, but they could not recommend approval of the new proposal to the council. The commission also approved the rezoning of an area on University Drive and Lincoln Avenue from single family residential to smaller single family residential lots, administrative - professional dis- trict and low- density apart- ments. In other action, the commis- sion approved final plans for the Emerald Forest Recreational Facility and Villa on the Rio Grande, which is zoned for low density apartments.

In other business, the council approved hiring the Huntsville firm of Hereford, Lynch and Co. to perform the city annual audit for the year ending June 30, 1983. Deputy Finance Direc- tor Glenn Schroeder said the firm has performed the city's audit for the past two years and done a good job. Last year, the firm charged $46,000 for the audit. This year, Schroeder said, the fee will be slightly less because certain tests won't have to be per- formed again.

Councilman Gary Anderson, chairman of the council's finance committee, said that the commit- tee preferred to consider the request later when all other requests from the hotel -motel fund are con- sidered. The Arts Council request was taken up at the council's workshop meeting. Anderson said, however, that the committee and the council are committed to funding to the arts. Last year, the Arts Council received $30,000 from the city. Finance Director A.E. Van Dever said the city estimated it would receive $360,000 from hotel - motel taxes in the current fiscal year but will fall about $20,000 short.
