AGENDA SUBJECT:
(a) Public Hearing
To consider public comment on a request by Anna Economic Development Corporation,
owner of the property, to change zoning on a portion of a 48.0040 acre tract known as
tract twenty-five of the Brantley, J. C Survey, A0114, located west of CR 427,
approximately 900 ft. south ofCR 376. The tract is currently zoned Single Family Estate
(SFE) and the owner is requesting a Planned Development zoning on approximately 10
acres of the tract to allow the establishment of a laser tag outdoor park.
(b) ConsiderlDiscussioni Action regarding an ordinance to change zoning on a portion of
a 48.0040 acre tract known as tract twenty-five of the Brantley, J. C Survey, A0114,
located west of CR 427, approximately 900 ft. south of CR 376. The tract is currently
zoned Single Family Estate (SFE) and the owner is requesting a Planned Development
zoning on approximately 10 acres of the tract to allow the establishment of a laser tag
outdoor park.
SUMMARY:
The tract is heavily wooded and most of the quality trees will be retained on the site.
Some artificial bunkers and fence sections will be constructed. It anticipated that this
request will have minimal impact on the surrounding property since the tract is heavily
wooded and the southern property line existing trees will be retained as a natural buffer.
Due to the location some of the facilities will be temporary in nature for a period not to
exceed eighteen (18) months. The remainder of the parent tract is anticipated to be an
industrial park.
PLANNING AND ZONING ACTION:
A public hearing was held at the regular meeting of the Planning and Zoning
Commission, May 5, 2009.
The Planning and Zoning Commission at their regular meeting, May 5, 2009,
recommended approval of the zoning request. The vote was unanimous.

AGENDA SUBJECT:
(a) Public Hearing
To consider an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance changing the minimum lot size in
the "SF-E" and the "AG" districts from 35,000 square feet to 43,560 square feet.
(b) ConsiderlDiscussl Act on recommendation regarding proposed Zoning Ordinance
change.
SUMMARY:
Traditionally, these two zoning districts are found on the fringe portions of the urbanized
areas of the city with "SF-E" district being the holding zone for property after
annexation. Many times these areas do not have adequate or any existing wastewater
service. The minimum size of a lot for septic tank: service is one (1) acre. This change
could facilitate development without a wastewater collection system in the immediate
area. Currently, it appears that all "SF-E" and "AG" zoned properties that are platted
have lots greater than or equal to 1 acre.
PLANNING AND ZONING ACTION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval ofthe proposed ordinance
revision at their regular meeting, May 5,2009. The vote was unanimous.

between the City and Wood Oak Hollow, LLC! Annaland, Ltd. regarding approximately
764 acres ofland located in the City's ETJ. The agreement states that the City will allow
the 764 acre tract to remain outside the City limits during the term of the agreement in

district on the property.

10 days. City agrees to allow the owner to make application for another discharge
permit on the easement we obtained from Mr. Ratton.

one year terms unless either party provides notice within 90 days of the expiration of the

AGENDA SUBJECT: ConsiderfDiscussionlAction authorizing the expenditure offunds
to participate in the construction ofa waterline on Interurban Street
SUMMARY: The new Post Office located south of Sonic is required to extend an eight
water line from West White Street (F.M. 455) to their property along Interurban Street.
In order to provide for adequate water distribution capacity to the south ofFM 455 along
Interurban Street and South Powell Parkway we believe this line should ultimately be a
12" line. The cost of the 8" line is $37,694 and the cost of the 12" line would be $48,712
for a difference of $11,018. The developer of this property has agreed to install a 12"
line if the City will pay the $11,018 difference. James Parkman, Director of Public
Works has verified through a separate contractor that these charges are reasonable.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City pay the
difference as an investment toward future development needs along South Powell
Parkway. The $11,018 would be taken from the Utility Fund Balance. The City has
applied for a grant from the Office of Rural Community Affairs in order to construct a
water line south of FM 455 in this area. If the grant is approved, the $11,018 should
count toward the City's required match.

If the agreement is approved, the EDC will pay $50,000 to be dispersed over a three (3)
year period provided Tony abides by the performance standards outlined in the
agreement.

commitment by Tony to restore an historic structure in the original part of Anna
warranted consideration of a financial incentive. Staff recommends that the Council

AGENDA SUBJECT: Discussion regarding the Police Department's attempts to receive
grant monies for personnel, equipment, and technology.
SUMMARY: The Police Department is trying very hard to get grants to help defray the
costs associated with the needed expansion of the staff, the enhancement of the
. technology available to the officers, and the capabilities of the department to provide the
citizens of Anna with the best police services possible.
Three (3) different grants are being sought. All are 100% funded by the grant during the
funding period and there is no City match requirement.
The first is through the United States Department of Justice Cops Hiring Recovery
Program and is strictly for personnel. We have applied for foUr (4) sworn positions to
bring our Department more in line with the requirement a City the size of Anna demands.
The grant funds the salaries, benefits, including any step increases/incentive pays, for
three years @ 100%; no matching funds are required. At the end of the three-year period,
the City is required to maintain those three positions for the period of one (1) year. At
the end of that year, the positions would be subject to retention or release at the City's
discretion.
The second funds we are seeking are from a federal pass through grant from the Bureau
of Justice Assistance (JAG), via the Governor's office, coordinated and distributed by the
NCTCOG. 9 million dollars has been made available to the COG's region. We are
trying to fund three initiatives totaling approximately $270,000:
Funding for technology in the form of a new server, computer work and net stations, and
mobile data computers is being sought. The funding of a mobile crime scene processing
vehicle and the civilian employee to act as the CSI, and the funding of a police records
manager, are also being applied for through this grant.
The CSI and vehicle funding will be applied for with the understanding that we will be
providing expert crime scene assistance to all of the surrounding small agencies (Melissa,
Van Alstyne, Farmersville, Princeton, and Celina).

AGENDA SUBJECT: Discussion regarding a proposed rental property licensing and
inspection program.
SUMMARY: As our neighborhoods age, we will begin to see an inevitable increase in
the number-of homes that are renter rather than owner occupied. Owner occupied homes,
by virtue of the fmancial investment that the occupant has in the property, tend to be
maintained more consistently and conscientiously than renter occupied homes. I do not
mean to imply that renters necessarily abuse property. Property maintenance in large
measure depends on the interest and attention of the landlord. A landlord that is not
vested in our community may not excersise the level of care necessary to prevent the
property from becoming a blight within an otherwise healthy community. A property
owner that is held accountable through regular inspections will be more likely to ensure
that the property is properly maintained. A robust inspection program instituted now
while our neighborhoods are relatively new will help curb neighborhood decline.
The program we are proposing would require owners ofrental property within the City of
Anna to register each residential rental unit with the City and apply for an annual license
to use the properties for rental purposes by December 31, 2009. To ensure that the
properties are being properly maintained, each rental unit would be inspected annually as
a prerequisite for renewing the annual license. Properties that are not properly
maintained would not qualifY for a license renewal. The City could also revoke a license
for failure to correct serious deficiencies in the timely manner.
The annual inspections would be performed by Bureau Veritas the same company
currently provides building inspections services for the City. In order to cover the cost of
the inspections and the administration of this program, the annual license fee would be
$100 per unit.
Attached is a draft ordinance that we intend to ask the City Council to adopt at a future
meeting.
