Mrs. Stuurmans made a presentation of a Ten -Year Pin to Betty Haislip of the Police Department. 37. Woodmont Tracts 68/77 (Cypress III) - Discussion and possible action. SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Approved with amendment to Site Plan Gene Toll addressed the Council for clarification to the City .Planner for the recreational envelope on Tract 68, which was approved by the Council. He indicated the envelope with symbols showing pool and toilet facilities as required by Board of Health on a commercial swimming pool and felt there was nothing that has to be changed on this site plan. He said he was told by Mr. Rubin that a permit for the pool house would not be given because there was a line not shown on the site plan within the emblem and should come back to City Council for their clarifi- cation. Mr. Toll felt that as long as everything in the envelope meets the zoning and is within the setbacks,this line is merely a symbol. The City Attorney stated that the "dash line" surrounding recreation area indicates extremities of pool and deck area placement conform to setback criteria. The difference that was submitted by Mr. Toll was not for the pool and deck area but for the bathroom facilities that go with it. Mr. Rubin, with Mr. Birken's concurrence, did not have the authority to permit any deviation from the language in the approved site plan and accordingly the matter is being brought back to Council for clarification. If it was Council's intent at the time the approval was made for the cabana to be included then there is no problem. The note does not say bathroom but deck area or pool and that is why it is being brought back. C/W Massaro indicated that the envelope has to come back to the Building Department with detailed sketches to be sure that it conforms to the South Florida Building Code. This symbol of the building is on every tract the same way and others that were done in 55, 61 etc, and the details are provided to the Building Department, City Planner, Richard Rubin, stated that a memo he sent to Council on September 4 states specifically where site develop- ment plan has been approved by Council, its proposal to be revised in any manner must be, approved by Council. The site plan locates the building, site and configuration and this is a minor revision. He said the code is specific today. In the past it had been discussed by staff that some flexibility be given in minor changes. However, Mr. Rubin felt that if Council approves this today, he would appreciate that Council look at this as a revised site plan and give that approval because if Council is allowing Mr. Rubin to make this minor revision, approve this provision without Council approval, then there are also three (3) other projects that have similar type of minor revisions. V/M Disraelly said he did not understand why there is such a controversy. The original site plan and blue area says limit of S-1 zoning,4600 acres +, He stated that any structure to be erected -2- 9/9/81. Council has required a site plan. On any of the buildings that surround this, Mr. Toll cannot change the entry to any of these others because it is marked here. V/M Disraelly added that it would have been much simpler to have agreed with the City Ordinance and bring in a new site plan for this like every other developer has done and pay the $150 for the revision and save the Council's time and the developers time and it would be the logical way to approach it because there is a change on the site plan so far as a structure is concerned. Otherwise, as Mr. Rubin has pointed out, then everybody can come in and change the location of any rest area on their recreation area. He further added, that Council abide by the regulation which Council has required in all of these three (3) others that were named here. il Gene Toll said that this is exactly the same way this has been done from the #1 site plan of Woodmont. He stated that the word envelope originated by this City not by him; and the reason for doing it originated with this Council. V/M Disraelly said that as far as he was concerned when envelopes have been shown to him they have been for a building that has a flip flop and there were no changes made in the structural design. Mr. Toll has indicated changing the con- formation of the building. C/W Massaro indicated that this has been repeated on several projects and Mr. Birken required the words be changed on the legend on the bottom. C/W Massaro MOVED that the Developer be required to amend the legend and add the words "Pool, Building and Rec. Area". The Developer will then be permitted to get his permit.

She felt at this time that it is not in the City's best interest to follow through with a loan for the computer and related equip- ment. She recommended that we use the funds available in contin- _r�_ a /a /oi gency and recommend a transfer from contingency to capital reserve. V/M Disraelly said that in a report from the City Manager and Steve Wood it was indicated that there is no saving for the City and funds that the City would spend if it were put into a loan, is not going to generate any more money for the City.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Tabled - City Planner to VOTE: work out location of mailbox. R. Rubin stated that when Council approved the original site plan 5 years ago, the Post Office at that time envisioned there would be a future NW 79th Ave. on the west. side of the property and when that road was built, the Post Office would agree to change the parking circulation to show driveways entering onto 79th Ave. and provide additional public spaces,. However, Mr. Rubin indicated, the drawing also shows removing the mail box in the middle of the parking lot providing additional parking. The Planning Commission reviewed this revision and their only suggestion is that when the Post Office removes the mail box make sure they put it somewhere else. Ile recommended Council send a letter to the Post Office requesting relocation of the mail box and asking them for their consideration. V/PZ Disraelly asked Mr. Rubin where it could possibly be placed. Mr. Rubin stated there is a deceleration lane on 57th St. that turns into the Post Office' western drive and the deceleration lane is wide enough to put the mail box. The old driveway will be blocked off and most likely the new location of the drop off boxes will be. Ile further stated that this is not the best solution because the mail box would be on the wrong side of the driver's window. C/W Massaro felt that if the drop off mail box is not accessible to the driver it would cause congestion and this should be clarified before anything else is done. V/P1 Disraelly asked the City Planner if the median was curved could the mail box be placed in the median? Mr. Rubin said it could most likely be done if the median was reduced to half it's width. The City Attorney stated that even though the location of the mail box is consistent with sound traffic engineering practices, the possibilities of cars backing up, u-turns, etc. could happen. C1w Massaro suggested that the City Planner get together with the architect of the Post Office to review this and make a recommend- ation to Council. C/M Zemel MOVED that this site plan be sent back to City Planner to work out location of mail box, C/W Massaro SECONDED.

In addition, a meeting was to have taken place between Coral Gables Federal and the City Planner regarding landscaping for the Greens and as yet this has not been accomplished. Clyde Manspeaker, attorney for petitioner, stated that it was Mr. Detrick's understanding that until the Council either approved or disapproved, the convenant would be ineffective if presented earlier. He stated that as far as an agreement with Coral Gables Federal, he new nothing about it and he did not want this matter to be tabled. He said his client Mr. Detrick would sign the convenant along with the attorney for the Greens. Mr. Manspeaker further stated that the only other person to sign the convenant would be Coral Gables and they of course would not be able to sign until the deed is tendered.

Mr. Birken stated that the convenant be executed prior to the Council meeting provided that these minor changes be satisfied. He further stated the convenant is not a condition to the rezoning. However, the existence of the convenant is an apparent prerequisite to the elimination of objections of the homeowners who are adjoining the property.

(tabled from 7/22/81) SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: a) Approved as amended to permit Marshall's style of lettering but Shori:in Center's, color criteria. h) Tabled, Resolution R-r ,.�d� PASSED a) Albert Myers, representing Marshall's Dept. Stares, stated the landlord has approved his sign and also has a drawing of a wall sign he would like to submit. Mr. Myers indicated all of the stores have similar signs; it is a trade --mark that is new in South Florida. V/M Disraelly asked if these signs have gone before Beauti- fication. Florence Bochenek, Beautification, said some signs did come before their committee and were denied. The petitioner was advised to go before Council for a Siqn Waiver. V/M Disraelly said he could appreciate the fact that Marshall's has stores in other locations, but the City has a very strong Ordinance regarding color. A new Publix that is coming i.n. will not have a green sign, it will conform to the color and type of sign of every other store in the complex. He also indicated the City has banks whose signs vary from sister banks in the surrounding cities and conform to the shopping center's other signs. V/M Disraelly requested that Council ask Marshall's Dept. Store to have the same yellow sign that is prevalent in this particular shopping center, in block letters. Mr. Myers indicated, that Marshall's is throughout the Country, and all the stores that V/M Disraelly mentioned are South Florida companies. Marshall's is in an area where tourism is big and he further stated that Shopping Center has many types of signs. TAPE #6 Florence Bochenek said the Beautification Committee had their first workshop two weeks aqo and the committee felt that it would be more attractive to have different styles of lettering and very adament in their feeling that coloring be maintained. C/W Massaro asked if the Beautification Committee did indicate that different styles of lettering would identify the stores quicker. Ms. Bochenek definitely felt that this was not a question of advertising but identification and that color was the confusion. V/M Disraelly said that he was sorry that item was discussed without the presence of the Chairman, who has worked so diligently on this. C/M Zemel said that he thought what the City was driving at, as far as beautification signs, is to avoid the garishness of State Road 7. He does not feel the style,unless it's outlandish, is the criteria the City has to worry about. However, the petitioner has the right to ask Council that the City consider what he has to offer, but we do have codes, laws and ordinances to abide by. C/M Zemel hoped that Mr. Myers would give this some thought. `13- 9/9/81 I-/ C/W Massaro MOVED that Marshall's sign, with their style of lettering, be approved with the same color as exists in the criteria required by that shopping center. C/M Kravitz SECONDED the Motion. V/M Disraelly questioned the height of the lettering as established by the shopping center and what the criteria was. He personally checked the criteria of this shopping center and concluded that no height of lettering was mentioned. He felt that this was an oversight of the Building Department accepting this criteria form without the height being completed and suggested that Mr. Farrell, Shopping Center Manager. comolete it now for the balance of the stores that might come in there. VOTE: Councilman Kravitz - Aye Councilman Zemel - A W Councilwoman Massaro - Aye V/M Disraelly - Nay Mayor Falck - Aye b) City Attorney read Temp. Resolution #2002 by title. He said there was a problem on the ground sign which was to be shown on the approved site plan. He thought at the last meeting the owner was going to come in showing everything and what the finished product would be. Mr. Birken felt this was Council's concern. Richard Rubin, City Planner, was in agreement with Mr. Birken and pointed out that the original site plan called for parking in asphalt in the exact location where this ground sign is being requested to be constructed. The ground sign has not been coordinated with the actual site plan. He further stated the shopping center has contracted with an engineering firm to prepare a revised site plan and if this could be coordinated at one time, this would be the only clear way to resolve this. Mr. Myers of Marshall's said he would be happy to have the sign with a brown background that would match the brown background of the building,which is existing, and brown columns. Mr. Birken said the City would have to have a revised site plan. V/M Disraelly mentioned that ground signs, according to our ordinance, are on pylons and secondly, the maximum height permitted is 12'.

Recreation Facilities - Discussion and possible action on the conceptual master plan for these facilities on Tract 27 and the installation of soccer fields. SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Tabled C/M Zemel questioned how the location of the water tower was determined. -14 9/9/81 cb/ Anthony A. Nolan, Consulting Engineer, stated that the water tank was originally placed by the Engineering Dept. at that location on a drawing which was submitted a year ago. He said that at the last council meeting it was discussed that Engineering would-orovide a legal description so that an appraisal. could be made. C/M Zemel said that he did not remember any final action taken by Council on that particular location of the water tank. C/W Massaro mentioned that at the last council meeting there was discussion on the possibility of another location and the office of Williams, Hatfield, and Stoner, under the direction of Mr. Nolan, was to determine whether it was feasible. Mr. Nolan*at that time recommended this was the best place it should go with regard to serving our purpose and cost the least amount. Anthony Nolan stated that the site has always been shown on that piece of property and the objective was to locate it so that the rest of the site would not be lost to its use and screened properly (landscape wise) and would not be adjacent to an additional subdivision that may find it ob- jectionable. C/M Zemel stated that the objective was not to denigrate or reduce the value of any of the properties or bother the aesthetic qualities of the homeowners who already have been there five, six or seven years and especially have to worry. C/M Zemel wanted to know why this spot has been chosen when it is closest to the housing that are in that area and why the water tank was not put in the center of this land. Anthony Nolan indicated that the siting was primarily considered in that location because of the other utilities in the immediate area. Cost was a factor as far as piping for the distribution system, the high surface pumping that would be used in conjunction with that, the electrical power transformer that is there already for the waste water pumping station and the ability to camouflage the waste water pumping station to some extent. He further stated that his office went to further extremes and worked up a tentative landscaping plan to investigate the ways that the water tank could be disguised. Richard Rubin stated that at the last meeting in July the City Council at the request of members of public, asked staff to review tract 27 to determine whether it would bean appropriate site for recreational facilities. The parcel, Mr. Rubin said, consists of 27 acres adjacent to Nob Hill Road, is vacant of native vegetation and is large enough to have multiple uses in the future. After he had several meeting with soccer teams, the athletic federations, recreation committee and members of council, he believes the plan reflects the best possible solution for this piece of land. The City Planner said what has been envisioned as a possible ultimate layout for this park site would be: 12 tennis courts with a pro.shack,bleachers to view tennis tournaments, picnic area adjacent to this complex, 2 basketball courts separated for team play, 1 ball field, 2 soccer fields, 1 open piece of land for multiple type of uses, 4 handball courts, lockers, toilets and bleachers. Meetings were again held to determine what are the basic needs today that could be served by this piece of land. He believes that after discussion today the following is the recreation needed today within the next 6-9 months: 1) 2 soccer fields; one for team play, one for practice ( team play can be utilized for football) 2) tennis courts (4 courts in Phase 1) 3) basketball courts that are separated far enough to have two games going at once. He said the plan council was reviewing placed these facilities far enough away from the major road where they are safe and would not require moving them to another location in the future. -15- 9/9/81 cb/ C/M Zemel asked Mr. Rubin with whom he met. Mr. Rubin said the meetings were held with soccer teams, Tamarac Athletic Federation, which represents all the various athletic sports that are played by the children in Tamarac, people out west and various Sections of 23 and 24. C/M Zemel stated the reason he was asking, of course, was the City wanted to have something that will satisfy the needs of all ages and all groups, such as the Community Center which the City plans to build. Richard Rubin indicated that of the three (3) different facilities that are planned only one (1) would be for the active youth. The tennis courts and basketball courts would be for all ages. C/M Zemel mentioned the tennis courts and the fact that a pro would be asked to get involved and a minimum number of courts would probably be required to pay for the pro and make his dollars worthwhile. C/M Zemel asked Mr. Rubin how many courts would he contemplate would be required. Mr. Rubin indicated that in order to have a full-time pro, 10-12 courts would be necessary. The pro's salary is paid by the City fee. C/M Zemel asked Mr.Rubin if there would be some difficulty if the water tower were relocated somewhere else to make the ground useful and still have aesthetic beauty. He was not talking about dollars. Mr. Rubin stated that if you were to ask an engineer and architect, given 27 acres, is there only one location of the water tower, the answer would obviously be no. It could be relocated. It would require a redesign of several of the activities. He further stated that the location of the two (2) soccer fields is the appropriate place, even though the City relocated the tank. C/M Zemel asked Mr. Rubin, assuming the tank was not too exposed, does he think he could beautify this so people hardly know its there. Mr. Rubin said the only question he had is what the maximum height of the tank is from the ground. If the height above the top of the berm is less than 2-31, given a proper budget, he could do a beautiful job. TAPE Mayor Falck asked the City Planner what is planned in between #7 the soccer field and the football field. Mr. Rubin said discussion at this time was planned for one (1) tournament field with bleachers for home fans and another for visitors. He recommended one (1) set of bleachers would be satisfactory for both home and distant teams. C/W Massaro said she felt the design was very good and the City has the multi -purpose area which is open for whatever needs will arise in the future. V/M Disraelly reviewed this design at length because this is the second plan and noted there is an increase in parking spaces, an open field whereby little league or one good sized baseball field could be developed in the future. He also noted there is a provision made for retention, which is essential to City code,and if the lake was put in there it is very close -16- 9/9/81 cb/ to within 200' of a canal that would tie into and give the City the opportunity to irrigate the soccer fields, especially the sod, and keeping the fields in good condition. V/M Disraelly stated this design has potential uses for this area. C/M Kravitz said that as liaison to the narks ana - Recreation Committee, a lot of time was spent going over not only the layout, but the safety as well. Mr. Rubin has maximum security around the park. He said Council as a whole, agrees that the need for the park is here, that the purpose of Phase I is definitely needed and it would serve the purposes of di1 ages. L/ivi :Kravitz stated that the layout the CiLy has at this time has been approved by the Recreation Committee, which will give the City a report. He said reports from the Recreation Director and Parks Commissioner would be in order to give input to Council and from there Council can take on as to their wishes. . C/W Massaro expressed that she would like to hear from the Soccer Club and what assistance they would render. Jim Lew, President of Tamarac Soccer Club, stated the offer that his club made in July still stands. The membership is willing to come out to help with labor, fund raisers, etc. He said as far as cost goes, let the club know, and he assured the City they would help in anyway they could. The Club currently has 243 paid members. 'the cost is �30.UU/lst child, $25.00/2nd for one season. C/W Massaro asked Mr. Lew what happens with.the registration money? Mr. Lew said a portion of the money goes for uniforms, insurance, a fee to the State Soccer Association, pays for referees, picnic, trophies and pictures. He pointed out the Soccer Club has provided Tamarac Park with the goal posts and with the two (2) soccer fields proposed, four (4) goal posts would be necessary. C/M Zemel asked Mr. Lew if he anticipated these fields being ready for the soccer season. Mr. Lew stated that the club was working with the Parks and Recreation Commission and currently use Tamarac lark. C/M Zemel asked the City Attorney what type of liability does the City have in case the services of the club are used to Tieln out on the fields. Mr. Birken said negligence and hazardousness law suits would most likely be considered of the City if injury occurred. Bob Washburn, resident of Tamarac, asked the City if it would be possible for the soccer club to sign waivers. Mr. Birken stated the waivers could be signed by the indi- viduals; the City could ask for them. There is no guarantee there is going to be a favorable action. C/M Kravitz asked if it could be possible for the City to have some type of floater insurance. Mayor Falck felt this was not an insurmountable problem and the City might even consider expanding their self insurance. Sharon Ellis, Recreation Director of Tamarac, complimented Richard Rubin for the excellent job he has done, in addition to working with the various committees. She stated that the people of the Tamarac Athletic Federation agreed on what Phase I should be, the recreation committee verified that and would like to see the Council agree upon to get started as soon as possible. -17 9/9/31 cb/ Norman Karr, Parks Commissioner, said Tamarac Park is being used to its maximum. The need for expanded facilities is: -obvious and further stated that after attending a meeting on September 2 of the Tamarac Athletic Federation he noted that these dedicated men and women were looking for ways and means to implement their programs and due to lack of facilities were forced to seek fields and courts outside of Tamarac. Dave Harris, PAL President, stated they have 268 signed up children, in addition to the soccer membership. These children would play flag football, basketball and girls softball. He said this Tract 27 would take care of the basketball and the other fields could still be used. CPL. Harris also stated there would be a need for more in the future but this was a good start. Many parents were willing to help work on the fields or whatever and were trying to get other means of raising more funds for different activities. Irving Vitrofsky, Chairman of Parks & Recreation, stated the plan is one of the finest to help the youth and the citizens of Tamarac and recommended that Council should go ahead as soon as possible. Mayor Falck suggested that this item be included on the next agenda so that Council will have sufficient time between now and then and hopefully come up with any questions that need to.be finalized so that Council can take definitive action. C/M Kravitz MOVED that this item be tabled for the next meeting on September 23 for possible action. C/W Massaro SECONDED the Motion. VOTE: ALL VOTED AYE 1. Capital Improvements - Discussion and possible action on: a) Tract 27 remote storage tank. b) System loop at University Drive and McNab Road. c) Status report by the Consulting City Engineer pertaining to new well fields. SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: a) Tract 27 remote storage tank to be located at the corner of Nob Hill Road and 77th Street as indicated on Water Storage Tank Site Plan as presented dated 8/29/80. b) Removed from Agenda. c) Tony Nolan is going to pursue ownership of forty feet of property on 61st Street and also he is to seek an easement from St. Malachys contiguous with 61st Street. a) V/M Disraelly said the City received a letter from Steve Snowberger, Project Engineer of Williams, Hatfield & Stoner dated December 1, 1980, in which he says, "When considering the economics of a water storage tank location, it must be remembered that 16" DIP already exists on Nob Hill Road thus facilitating the storage tank at the corner of N.W. 77th Street and Nob Hill Road." Economics being the factor, Mr. Snowberger suggested the option of locating the tank on Tract 90 dropped. V/M Disraelly MOVED that the remote storage tank be located at the corner of Nob Hill Road and 77th Street as indicated on water storage site plan dated 8/29/80, and C/W Massaro SECONDED. C/M Zemel asked the City Engineer if the water tank is flat on the ground? Mr. Keating stated the sketch indicated the bottom of the tank is at the existing grade of the land. However, he -18- 9/9/81 cb/ did mention that in accordance with all previous conver- sations, Engineering would study how much they could bury the tank to keep it at the lowest profile as possible without running the cost to an exorbitant amount. C/M Zemel asked Engineering what the maximum exposure and height would be. Mr. Keating said it was indicated as 8' above the berm; 8' of tank plus 5' of roof. C/M Zemel stated that the tank plus roof was a total of 13' and if the City planted 4' plants and 3' shrubs it would be ugly just like the substations. V/M Disraelly said the Council talked about burying the tank 4' which would leave 4' above the ground. He realized that Council was discussing location right now but pointed out he still expected Council to agree that the tank should be sunk and as Anthony Nolan pointed out the fill from the berm will come from the excavation. V/M,Disraelly further stated this problem falls into two purposes; if we don't sink the tank then we have to call in material for the berm, otherwise, we can get material for the berm from ground. Anthony Nolan indicated there would be a few things the City would have to -;bear in mind as far as the tank is concerned and what could be done to disguise it from a ,structural standpoint as far as soil is concerned. First of all, there is a limitation as far as how deeply it can be placed in the ground; it must be kept at above high ground water. The other physical limitation is that con- sideration be given for a pre -stressed concrete tank. Mr. Nolan continued to point out that there is an optimum size of the tank that is the least expensive the City can purchase and once you deviate from that as far as lowering the wall height and increasing the diameter, you increase the cost. The real consideration, Mr. Nolan said was how high against the wall you could place dirt; whether it be in the ground or dirt placed against it above the ground. In this instance 12' is concerned and essentially you could berm it whether it be buried or piled adjacent to it to a height of approx- imately 121. Larry Keating said the City should keep in mind the overall profile of the tank is 28' high. Tony Nolan stated the wall height of the tank is 28' and dome is on top. The actual profile of the tank is higher. Larry Keating said that when considering the overall height of the tank, the profile of it, in this case 25' and dropped in 4' in the ground, 'the profile would be reduced from 25' to 21'. Even though there is only 12' of wall showing, the total structure including the mounds on the side will still be 21'. Tony Nolan said that one of the things Engineering asked him to look into when preparing the proposal back in June was architectural treatments of the tank; to disguise it to some extent and give it a different character entirely. He indicated there was one built in St. Petersburg Beach whereby the character was changed totally and did not look like a tank. He further stated in conjunction with a tank to be built is a high surface pumper. This was accomplished by building into the architectural treatment of the high - surface pumper a sculptured type effect that actually enhanced the appearance of the structure as opposed to the straight up and down dome -type structure. -19- 9/9/81 cb/ C/W Massaro said the City's main concern is the height on two (2) sides which were the corners of 100th Avenue and 77th Street. V/M Disraelly said the tank was set back more than 100' from the corner before the top of the berm. Tony Nolan indicated to Council that in the package from the City Manager's office it deals with the evaluation of the piece of property and includes a sketch depicting the piece of property and the tank. He further indicated that berming two sides is possible, but not the entire tank. TAPE #8 VOTE: ALL VOTED AYE Mayor Falck asked Council if they saw anything wrong in authorizing the design concepts. Mr. Birken stated that the City has a continuing contract with Williams, Hatfield and Stoner, therefore, it would not be necessary to go out for another selection. V/M Disraelly said he would like a little more time to review this item and table this for the next meeting. C/W Massaro stated the City did not have to wait for the next regular meeting but could call a special meeting if after reviewing the item there were no questions. Mayor Falck asked Tony Nolan if he would please comment on this. Tony Nolan explained that back in June he responded to a request from Engineering to submit a proposal. Sub- sequent to that, Mr. Keating asked to have it revised and,therefore,was resubmitted in July to the City. C/W Massaro asked Mr. Nolan that if there were further recommendations that would help Council to clarify some things, Council would appreciate a letter from him. with regard to beautifying and camouflaging the tank and the cost involved. Tony Nolan indicated that similar tanks are under design right now and face the same problem in every instance. He realized the tank is unattractive to neighbors and unfortunately is not being placed in a commercial area. The profile is extremely important. C/W Massaro asked Mr. Nolan if the City could locate the tank internally somehow without upsetting his engineerinq require- ments. Tony Nolan said that from an engineering standpoint you would only need the diameter of the tank. if this could be worked into Mr. Rubin's plans, as far as the utilization of the park, there would be no problem with moving the tank any place on the site. He stated the major concern was with the site and with the water distribution lines that are in the two (2) adjacent streets. The economic analysis was predicated on line work that would have to be done within the road rights of way leading to the tank at two or three other sites that were reviewed. C/W Massaro suggested that if this plan could be changed a little bit to locate the tank somewhere other than right on the street camouflaged by some of the activity and not -20- 9/9/81 cb/ upset the plan of the recreation and be able to put this tank in without having to spend a tremendous amount of money, it certainly is worth looking at. C/W Massaro asked Mr. Nolan if the location of the tank, whether it is at this corner or the middle, would this stop him from being able to design it? Mr. Nolan specified that there were several parameters the City would have to evaluate. He did very tentative cost estimates on berming, landscaping and, in addition, cost estimates through the tank fabricators to come up with what it would cost in addition to the base cost to make the tank wider and lower. All of these things have to be decided by Council and the real economic decision is the Cit)�. V/M Disraelly asked Mr. Nolan if a facade could be built on two (2) sides of the tank that would give the appearance of a condominium with windows, a wall and doors on the street side? Tony Nolan said he was quite sure it could be done. This will have a cost effect. He mentioned that FBL in some instances uses a structural wall and that there were waste water pump stations in residential areas that looked like houses. C/M Zemel stated that according to his understanding, the higher the tank the deeper the water and,therefore, the greater increase in pressure and the wall would have to be much heavier to contain the added pressure. C/M Zemel asked Mr. Nolan to comment on this. Tony Nolan stated that the manufacturing technique used in the fabrication is what has to be considered. This is built on site and not fabricated in a shop somewhere and pointed out the post tension is reinforced concrete. b) C/W Massaro MOVED that the System loop at University Drive and McNab Road, because of recommendations made by the City Attorney, be removed from agenda upon further consider- ation. V/M Disraelly SECONDED the Motion. VOTE: ALL VOTED AYE c) Mr. Nolan stated that . subsequent to the City Engineer's review requesting modifications, those modifications will be completed and presented to his office by the end of next week. He indicated that there were two (2) other problems associated with this project. The first question revolves around the placement of the raw water line across University Drive and the States'contention is that it needs to be bore and jack, which is an expensive proposition. The other is the request by the City Attorney, through a title company, to search the ownership of that portion of the road that appears on the City's map as 61st Street. Mr. Nolan indicated the title company has not been able to find the vesting document and the transfer of title is not clear. He hasplotted the two (2) plats adjacent to it to insure that there is no overlapping of property. There is a 40' hiatue between St. Malachy and Summit Bank property. Mr. Birken stated that there was a quit claim issued and was not sure if Leadership Housing had that right in the first place. He is still trying to find out who owns that 40' and did not recommend that we spend thousands of dollars to put a line some place where the ownership is in question. V/M Disraelly recalls the transfer given to us by Leadership Housing and was tied in with a canal. -21- 9/9/81 cb/ Tony Nolan stated that the only question the title company raised was about the Benring interests. Nobody can find the transfer to the Behring interests and did get muddled up in stock transactions and ownership transfer between Behring and Leadership. V/M Disraelly said St. Malachy's just gave the City another piece at the corner. Tony Nolan said the City could request and perhaps get an easement from. St. Malachy and put it in there which' would entail rerouting the line, which is no major problem. Mr. Birken said if St. Malachy can give the City an easement that is obtainable, that would solve the problem. Larry Keating stated this situation has come up before and is not desperate to the point where the City should jeopardize the project or increase the cost substantially. He further stated that what you have here is an existing road that is being used by the public which has utilities in there and no doubt in his mind that it will not he used other than a road. It is Mr. Keating's understanding that when a certain piece of property used by the public and there is nothing that can be done there eventually becomes a right of way. Mayor Falck suggested that the City go the route of trying to obtain an easement from St. Malachy. He asked Mr. Nolan how many feet would the City need? Tony Nolan said the City needs only 10' if the right of way were to be used for construction. 40. Drainage Improvements - Western Area of the City - Discussion and possible action. SYNOPSIS OF ACTION: Council requests status Of drainage funds be provided by City Manager. Westwood Boulevard Outfall drainage project to be discussed at Meeting of 9/23/81. City Engineer to evaluate drainaae problems Past of Aai for 9/23/81 Meeting. C/M Zemel reported that after some considerable storms the City had good results. HP further stated that Westwood 6 (103rd Avenue) was presently under repair. However, the City does have a problem which was contemplated in the original design before they started doing anything and that portion of 100th Terr._ running over to 101st Avenue. This is a small area which floods about 6" for a couple of hours, which includes the cul-de-sac, otherwise, there are no other problems. C/W Massaro questioned the City Engineer about the area east of 441. Larry Keating said before he could make a recommendation, he would need a copy of the drainage on State Road 7,which he was trying to obtain from the D.O.Q. and recommended that the City proceed with the Westwood Boulevard Outfall drainage project. C/W Massaro said Council has not reviewed this item as yet and suggested that this be discussed at the 9/23 meeting and further suggested that at that meeting a report from Finance on the drainage funds would be in order. ,.
