MINUTES OF A STUDY SESSION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF HIGHLAND PARK, TEXAS, HELD AT THE TOWN HALL, 4700 DREXEL DRIVE, ON TUESDAY, APRIL 7, 2015, AT 8:00 A.M.
Present at the meeting were Mayor Joel T. Williams, III, Mayor Pro Tem Stephen Rogers, and Town Council Members Bob Carter, Eric Gambrell, Margo Goodwin, and John McKnight.
Mayor Williams called the study session to order and asked for questions and/or comments regarding the following agenda items:
UPCOMING AGENDA DISCUSSION Action
No items were assigned to this category.
Consent
“Review a request to amend the Town’s Zoning Ordinance to combine 3805 and 3807 Potomac Avenue into one building site.” No discussion.
“Review a request to replat the east 5 feet of Lot 14, all of Lots 15 and 16, and the west half of Lot 17, Block 9, Mount Vernon Addition, Third Installment, Highland Park, Dallas County, Texas, bearing the street addresses 3805 and 3807 Potomac Avenue, into one lot.” No discussion.
Consider approval of a resolution recognizing Friday, April 24, 2015, as Arbor Day.” No discussion. No discussion.
“Review and discuss the Town’s potential use of social media platforms as avenues of electronic communication.” In response to questioning from Council Member McKnight, Mayor Williams explained that the previous Council was concerned that the staff would spend considerable time in preparing information to post on Facebook, Twitter, and others. He added that the Information Officer for University Park explained to him that social media could be a means of reaching a younger constituency. Sergeant Lance Koppa, Public Information Officer, explained the benefit/importance of utilizing social media to communicate with residents, and added that many people use social media as their primary source to get news. The Council discussed the extent to which the Town would utilize social media, and the level of staffing required for its maintenance; whether the Town would allow anyone outside of Town staff to post to its social media; and the type of information to be posted on social media. In comparing tools such as
“Blue Zone News” and “Blackboard Connect,” Chris Vinson, Director of Public Safety, explained that social media is the next iteration of communication, and compared it to the advent of television replacing radio as a means to get news. He suggested that the Town has to adapt to what its citizens are utilizing. Mayor Williams asked for the staff to review social media policies used in other municipalities, and concluded the discussion by suggesting that the Town should utilize all available communication tools to reach as many residents as possible.
“Review and discuss an ordinance establishing eight intersections in the northeast area of the Town as all-way stop intersections.” No discussion.
Page 2 of 5
“Review and discuss an ordinance prohibiting trucks, tractors, trailers, or other commercial vehicles with a rated capacity in excess of ten thousand (10,000) pounds gross combined vehicle weight over any streets of the Town except when following designated truck routes.”
Meran Dadgostar, P.E., Town Engineer, explained that the ordinance provides specific streets to be designated as truck routes; on the other streets, no trucks would be allowed unless making a delivery to a specific address. In response to Mayor Williams’ question regarding the maximum fine of $500, Chris Vinson explained that $500 is the maximum fine for most violations, with the exception of violations that are considered to be a threat to public health and safety. Council Member Carter expressed dissatisfaction with the number of signs, stating that fourteen signs are too many on Preston Road. Meran Dadgostar explained that the purpose of the signage on Preston Road is to prevent trucks from turning onto side streets. In response to a question regarding enforceability, Matthew Boyle, Town Attorney, stated that more signs makes the prosecution of violators easier. Following the discussion, Mayor Williams asked that staff review/revise the signage on Preston Road, for presentation to the Council at a future meeting.
“Review and discuss an ordinance designating “Parking prohibited at all times” along the east side of Airline Road from Mockingbird Lane south 177 feet, and from the Katy Trail north 100 feet.” No discussion.
“Review and discuss an ordinance designating “Parking limited to two hours,” between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, on Abbott Avenue and Sewanee Avenue between Mockingbird Lane and Drexel Drive.” In response to concerns of signage related to parking restrictions, Chris Vinson explained that the Town’s Zoning Ordinance provides a radius of five feet (5’) for driveways, and a radius of ten feet (10’) for alleys. He referred to the Zoning Ordinance definition of radius; as defined, the number of signs that would otherwise have to be installed, and curbs that would have to be painted yellow, would be limited.
Director Vinson added that Meran Dadgostar posted on the Town’s website information regarding radius for driveways and alleys, including illustrations of violations. In response to questioning from Mayor Williams, Kirk Smith explained that the radius begins at the point the flare, or curved portion of a driveway approach or alley meets the straight line of the curb. In response to questioning from Council Member McKnight, Chris Vinson verified that “Two-Hour Parking” signs will be posted on Abbott Avenue and Sewanee Avenue in the designated areas.
“Review and discuss a proposal in the amount of $59,781.40 to purchase traffic signal poles for the intersection of Mockingbird Lane and Airline Road.” Meran Dadgostar explained that the traffic signal poles will be a fluted design to match other traffic signal poles along Mockingbird Lane; additional funds will be expended for the signal system.
FUTURE AGENDAS DISCUSSION
“Review and discuss a request to landscape the western five-foot (5’) portion of a Walk Reserve located between 4216 and 4224 Armstrong Parkway.” Ronnie Brown, Director of Town Services, explained that the resident at 4224 Armstrong requested permission to plant magnolia trees to replace dead vegetation previously removed in the Walk Reserve. Because an engineering study for drainage analysis is scheduled in Fiscal Year 2016, the staff was concerned that planting in the Town’s right-of-way prior to the study may create complications. Mr. Brown confirmed that the drainage in front of the resident’s property is the shortest run toward Douglas Avenue. Meran Dadgostar explained that the quantity of drainage water is currently unknown;
the study will determine if the existing 18-inch storm drain line in the parkway adjacent to 4224 Armstrong Parkway is the best location, or if a larger pipe going toward Douglas Avenue is
Page 3 of 5
needed. In response to questioning, Meran Dadgostar anticipated that the study should be completed by the summer of 2016. The resident explained that the entire ten-foot right-of-way contained dead trees, and he and the resident at 4216 Armstrong Parkway cleared the area. The resident stated his belief that he could use the property based on a resolution approved by the Town Council in 1942. He requested to use only five feet (5’) of the ten-foot right-of-way to screen his property. Additionally, the resident offered to place pipes underground for the future use by the Town. Meran Dadgostar explained that the park area has a potential of ponding.
There are utilities in that corner, which is the reason the engineering study is needed.
Bill Lindley, Town Administrator, stated that the question is whether or not to allow a property owner to use Town property. Council Member Gambrell asked the cost of the engineering study (preliminary study: $10,000 to $15,000) and the resident’s cost for the landscaping ($100,000).
Mayor Pro Tem Rogers questioned why the resident could not plant on his side of the Walk Reserve, to which the resident quoted the 1942 resolution as “clearly stating the resident may use.” The resident further explained that the property owners adjacent to the Bordeaux Walk Reserve have built a brick wall in the middle of the 10-foot Walk Reserve and closed off access.
He further stated that Flippen Properties asked the city to remove the concrete, which was not deemed as relinquishing the rights for the maintenance of utilities, but that property owners could use the area for landscaping. In response to questioning by Council Member Gambrell, the resident affirmed that his willingness to place pipes underground to be helpful, and added that he does not want to see a ten-foot section of gravel there. The resident further stated that his engineer questioned how to make the turn at the corner. Ronnie Brown explained that the corner area is very tight because of the utility poles. In response to questioning by Mayor Pro Tem Rogers, Matthew Boyle, Town Attorney, remarked that the original document stated that planting by a resident was subject to approval by the Town. In response to questioning why the planting has to be placed outside the resident’s property, the resident replied that by planting on the outside, he could avoid digging into gas lines, drainage lines, and air conditioning lines located in the inside area. The resident further explained that when he built the house, he located those lines against the fence line because he believed he could plant magnolia trees in the Walk Reserve. He further stated that the area could not be used for a walkway from Armstrong Parkway to Bordeaux Avenue because the other properties closed off the area, eliminating the ability to get a four-foot walkway into the park. Town Attorney Boyle explained that the resolution states that residents can take out the sidewalk and plant anything else, subject to Town Council approval, and can do this one time, but residents cannot replant. Mayor Pro Tem Rogers reiterated that the Town needs to do the engineering study. Mayor Williams suggested that even though the study is fifteen months away, the resident could replant what was there previously, with the unrestricted proviso that he would accept the risk that he may have to remove the plants, at his expense, when the Town needs access to the Walk Reserve. Council Member Gambrell stated that in his opinion, it would be premature to allow the resident to plant in the Walk Reserve, and he does not believe this to be an emergency situation. Council Member McKnight asked if it is possible to accelerate the study. Following a discussion, Bill Lindley explained that accelerating the study would impact other Capital Improvement Plan (“CIP”) projects. Council Member McKnight suggested that the engineering study be accelerated so that the resident and the Town could have a clear line when the decision needs to be made; a potential solution could be installing the conduit now at the resident’s expense. Mr. Lindley suggested that the property owner could pay for the study, if accelerated. Mayor Williams commented that the Town Engineer places a higher priority on the significant $200,000 engineering study of Hackberry Creek, Exall Lake, and Conner Lake. Bill Lindley asked the Council if they were ready for the staff to draft a landscape encroachment easement agreement, to which Mayor Pro Tem Rogers and Council Member McKnight responded in the negative. Mr. Lindley recommended that the if
Page 4 of 5
Council were to approve planting the trees in the Walk Reserve, in order to provide clarity for future Town Councils, a clear definition specifying the location and types of trees allowed should be documented.
“Review a request to install a roof-mounted business sign in Planned Development 1, at 33 Highland Park Village. Kirk Smith, Development Services Manager, explained that when the Town adopted sign standards a few years ago, roof-mounted signs were not included. The Zoning Ordinance gives the Town Council the authority to approve other signs in a Planned Development. The proposed sign would be installed on the north side of the Village Theater, would look similar to the historical signs, and would be no taller than the roof peak. A public hearing is scheduled on April 13 regarding the request; notice was mailed to 44 property owners within 200 feet. Mr. Smith stated that the staff recommends approval in this location only, and no other areas within the Planned Development. In response to questioning, Kirk Smith explained that the Village Theater sign is “grand-fathered in;” the proposed sign is not visible from Douglas Avenue, Mockingbird Lane, or Livingston Avenue; and the illumination will be no greater than that of the Village Theater sign.
“Review and discuss proposed changes to the Town’s ordinance on alarm systems.”
Chris Vinson explained that the Town’s current alarm ordinance provides for burglar alarms and fire alarms. The State of Texas views burglar and fire alarms separately, as does the insurance industry and the alarm industry. The significant change needed to the Town’s alarm systems ordinance is to draft separate ordinances for burglar alarm systems and for fire alarm systems. In response to questioning by Council Member Goodwin, Chris Vinson explained that the Town utilizes enhanced call confirmation to verify alarms as a means to reduce false alarms; one call to the property owner, and one call to the “call-back” number. In response to questioning by Mayor Williams, Chris Vinson explained that a separate ordinance for video alarm monitoring will be drafted following the completion of the burglar alarm ordinance and the fire alarm ordinance.
“Review and discuss the Fiscal Year 2015-16 Combined Operating and Capital Budget Preparation process.” Steve Alexander explained that in preparation for the 2015-16 Budget, the Finance Department is in the process of meeting with the various other departments to review requests for the next budget year. He further explained that the Council may request projects or initiatives they wish to focus on at any time during the process. Mayor Williams confirmed that there will be several such opportunities.
REPORTS
“Review and discuss the Town’s Financial Report for the period ending February 28, 2015.”
Steven Alexander, Director of Administrative Services and Chief Financial Officer, explained that due to the amount of rain experienced during the winter months, the staff is carefully monitoring water consumption every month. Water consumption fell below the projection for February; utility revenues are 89.9% of the year-to-date projection. If water consumption falls below projections in March, it may be necessary to adjust the revenue projections for the remainder of the fiscal year. Revenues from sales taxes and building permits are above projections for this year and ahead of the revenues collected at this time last year.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was adjourned at 9:44 a.m.

Present at the meeting were Mayor Joel T. Williams, III, Mayor Pro Tem Stephen Rogers, and Town Council Members Eric Gambrell, Margo Goodwin, and John McKnight. Absent from the meeting was Town Council Member Bob Carter.
Mayor Williams called the work session to order and asked if there were any regular agenda items to discuss, to which there was no response. Mayor Williams closed the Work Session and called the regular meeting to order.
Town Attorney Matthew Boyle gave the Invocation.
Mayor Williams asked for citizen comments regarding items not listed on the agenda, to which the following citizens responded:
John C. Sargent stated that he grew up in Highland Park, and his parents live in the 3200 block of St. Johns Drive. He referenced Ordinance No. 891 regarding weddings in the Town of Highland Park; he is a wedding photographer. Mr. Sargent asked the Council to reconsider the Town’s regulations related to the maximum number of people allowed (25), restrictions on music, lighting, chairs, and food/drink for weddings in the Flippen Park Gazebo. Mr. Sargent suggested allowing food trucks such as those at the Swimming Pool during the pool season, and allowing wedding parties up to 100 persons, which could be required to utilize valet parking services such as Jack Boles to accommodate parking needs.
Alan Wisk, 4428 Beverly Drive, addressed the Council and stated that he moved here 28 years ago. Mr. Wisk expressed concern for the speed of vehicles traveling on Beverly Drive, and specifically, the safety of children who live in the 4400 block. Mr. Wisk stated that 17 children live on this block, 12 of whom are under High School age. He referenced a state statute that grants municipalities the ability to lower a speed limit to 25 miles per hour if the street is less than 35 feet wide. Mr. Wisk asked that the Council consider lowering the speed limit on Beverly Drive, or as an alternative, place “Children Playing” signs on Beverly Drive at its intersections with Lomo Alto Drive and Armstrong Parkway.
Mayor Williams thanked both speakers, and explained that the Town Council cannot comment on any item that is not on the Council agenda.
Mayor Williams recessed the meeting at 8:09 a.m. and opened a public hearing to receive the Zoning Commission’s recommendation on a request to amend the Town’s Zoning Ordinance by combining 3805 and 3807 Potomac Avenue into one building site, and receive public comments on this request. Kirk Smith, Development Services Manager, explained that the two properties are the smallest on the block, and combining them would make their size consistent with other properties on the block. Mayor Williams asked if anyone wished to ask questions or comment on the request, to which there was no response. Council Member Goodwin verified with Kirk Smith that no responses were received from the neighbors. Kirk Smith stated that no written correspondence in support of, or in opposition to the request was received by the Town. Mayor Williams asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak in favor of, or in opposition to the request, to which there was no response. Mayor Williams closed the public hearing at 8:10 a.m.

Mayor Williams opened a public hearing to receive public comments on a request to amend the Town’s Zoning Ordinance by amending the Planned Development ordinance for PD 1, the Highland Park Village, to install an attached business sign for Five Creeks Tavern on the roof of Building C adjacent to the Village Theater. Kirk Smith explained that the Town Council reviewed the request in its study session on April 7, 2015.

MINUTES OF A STUDY SESSION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF HIGHLAND PARK, TEXAS, HELD AT THE TOWN HALL, 4700 DREXEL DRIVE, ON TUESDAY, APRIL 21, 2015, AT 8:00 A.M.
Present at the meeting were Mayor Joel T. Williams, III, Mayor Pro Tem Stephen Rogers, and Town Council Members Bob Carter, Eric Gambrell, Margo Goodwin, and John McKnight.
Mayor Williams called the study session to order.
Receive a presentation by StreetLights Residential of a planned multi-family residential development located in the City of Dallas. Mayor Williams explained that The Harvard is a new development in the City of Dallas’ PD 193, adjacent to Highland Park. He introduced Doug Chesnut, a resident of Highland Park, and asked him to describe the project. Mr. Chesnut stated that The Harvard is a project being developed by StreetLights Residential (“StreetLights”) which will consist of 183 residential units with an average size of 1,600 square feet, at an average rental rate of $4,000 per month. The target market is empty nesters, who wish to rent a nice property close to where their children were raised, and who want amenities such as doormen, concierge services, and luxury living. Mike Sullivan, architect, explained that the project will resemble a great residential hotel, in a great neighborhood, from the era of the 1930s and 1940s. The size of the units will range from 1,100 square feet to just under 3,000 square feet. A second building on site will provide a new facility for the Canine Country Club. The main building will include a penthouse with ballroom space; all traffic will exit from the street to a motor lobby, the front of which will face Tracy Street. The exterior will be a combination of stone and brick with gas lanterns, similar to the new buildings at SMU. Andrea Waldrup, interior designer, compared the interior finishes to historical hotels such as the Ritz Carlton, the Four Seasons, and the Intercontinental. Level 1 will be comprised of public spaces; Level 3 will provide a workout room and a Great Room for residents. Doug Chesnut stated that the project will break ground this summer and be completed in 18 to 20 months. In response to questioning, Mr. Chesnut explained that there will be 22 floors; the top floor will be residential penthouses; and the property is planned as rental residences. Mayor Pro Tem Rogers commented that the traffic impact will be substantial, and with 22 stories overlooking Highland Park, the City of Dallas’ PD 193 is not good for Highland Park. He added that getting over the Katy Trail at Knox Street will likely result in long back-up lines of traffic. Council Member McKnight commented that this will put even more pressure on the northeast quadrant of Town. Council Member Goodwin suggested that the Katy Trail should go either underground or overhead. Mayor Pro Tem Rogers supported the idea and asked if The Harvard would pay for that. Representatives of The Harvard did not respond.
UPCOMING AGENDA DISCUSSION Action
No items were assigned to this category.
Consent
Mayor Williams asked the Council for questions and/or comments regarding the following agenda items:

$489,000.00, and asked the reason for such a difference. Meran Dadgostar, P.E., Town Engineer, stated his opinion that RBR Infrastructure & Road, LLC was not interested in the job at the low price. He further explained that the Ken-Do price is consistent with the unit prices on the current Normandy Avenue project, and the company has worked on projects for the Town for the past ten years.
Review and discuss a Project Specific Agreement with Dallas County for partial funding of the traffic signal system at the intersection of Mockingbird Lane and Airline Road. In response to questioning from Council Member Carter, Meran Dadgostar explained that this agreement with Dallas County is for the reimbursement of 50% of the cost for the traffic signal system, not to exceed $100,000. The estimated cost of the traffic signal system is $200,000.
Review and discuss Change Order Number 1 to the contract awarded to RBR Infrastructure &
Road, LLC for paving improvements to the intersection of Mockingbird Lane and Airline Road.
No discussion.
Review and discuss an Interlocal Agreement (“ILA”) with the City of Dallas for improvements to Mockingbird Lane. In response to questioning by Mayor Pro Tem Rogers, Meran Dadgostar explained that the attorneys for the City of Dallas worked with the Town Attorney in drafting the interlocal agreement. Bill Lindley, Town Administrator, explained that the ILA allows the Town to make repairs to a portion of Mockingbird Lane that is located in the City of Dallas, for which the Town will be reimbursed. He further explained that completing this work during the construction of the Mockingbird Lane/Airline Road intersection will be less disruptive to traffic.
Review and discuss an ordinance amending the FY 2014-15 Adopted Budget. Steven Alexander, Director of Administrative Services and Chief Financial Officer, explained that each year after the completion of the annual audit of the Town’s financial statements, and pursuant to the Town’s Financial Management Policies, a portion of the surplus Fund balance is transferred to the Capital Projects Fund to be used for capital expenditures. Mr. Alexander explained that based on the results of the 2014 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, approximately
$1,015,000 is available for transfer to the Capital Projects Fund; staff recommends a transfer of
$900,000, and a review to transfer the remaining $115,000 pending the close of the fiscal year.
Mr. Alexander reviewed with the Council the adjustments needed to fund the Alarm Monitoring Program, General Fund Legal Fees, Employee Retirements, General Fund Building Inspection Fees – Contract Services, Capital Projects Fund, Utility Fund, Technology Replacement Fund, and the Employee Christmas Fund. Steven Alexander reported that revenue from water sales is lower than projected, and if consumption does not increase, it may be necessary to utilize the Fund Balance within the Utility Fund to continue funding planned capital improvements. In response to questioning from Mayor Pro Tem Rogers and Council Member Carter, Bill Lindley stated that the water level in Grapevine Lake increased 22 inches from recent rains, and Mayor Williams explained that although water levels are up, all other water districts in the area continue to restrict watering. The Council discussed the allocation of the Employee Christmas Fund; Bill Lindley explained that residents provide the monetary gifts that are distributed to the employees;
no Town funds are expended in the distribution.

Review and discuss a revision to Ordinance No. 1970, eliminating the all-way stop intersection at Airline Road and St. Johns Drive. In response to questioning from Council Member Carter, Bill Lindley explained that some of the residents on Airline Road expressed concerns that installing stop signs on Airline Road, as previously approved by the Council, will negatively impact their ability to park on the street in front of their houses. Meran Dadgostar explained that the average lot on Airline Road is 50 feet wide; the average driveway including the radii is 12 feet wide, leaving approximately 35 to 37 feet, and providing the opportunity for one parking space. He added that most driveways can accommodate two cars. Following a discussion, Mr. Dadgostar stated that the residence at 5026 Airline Road would lose its available on-street parking, but in his opinion, the other residences would not be affected. Bill Lindley commented that the Traffic Engineer recommended placing all three stop signs on Airline Road, but in consideration of this recent information, he would recommend eliminating the installation of the stop signs at St. Johns Drive. Mr. Lindley added that the resident at 5012 Airline Road complained that they could not park on the north side of the stop sign at Cornell Avenue; a storm water inlet is located where the stop sign would be located, all within one foot (1’) of the driveway; and the resident is concerned that vehicles exiting the driveway may collide with the stop sign. The resident was also concerned that the stop sign is visible from inside the house.
The resident at 5010 Airline Road complained that with the storm sewer inlet, he would lose one parking space. In response to questioning from Council Member Gambrell, Meran Dadgostar stated that he does not believe that the parking limitations on Airline Road will drastically impact the parking on Abbott Avenue. In response to Mayor Williams’ question regarding the Council’s wishes in addressing the stop sign issue, Council Member Goodwin suggested removing the stop sign on northbound Airline Road at St. Johns Drive, and retain the stop signs as previously approved on Airline Road at Drexel Drive and at Cornell Avenue, to which Mayor Pro Tem Rogers and Council Members McKnight and Carter expressed agreement.
Council Member Gambrell excused himself from the meeting at 9:35 a.m.
Review and discuss an ordinance establishing a Resident Permit Parking Program. Bill Lindley suggested that if the Council approves the Resident Permit Parking Program, the staff provide a petition form to the Livingston Avenue residents who submitted a petition to limit on-street parking in the 4200 block of Livingston Avenue, which was included as an attachment to the agenda briefing. Mr. Lindley added that the Council could adjust the hours; he suggested keeping the hours consistent.
FUTURE AGENDAS DISCUSSION
Review and discuss an ordinance amending the Town’s regulations providing for the installation of synthetic turf. Kathleen Sullivan, Town Services Manager, stated that the Town Council reviewed the topic of synthetic turf at its study session on January 7, 2015, and directed the staff to further research the pros and cons of its installation in residential areas. Because most installations of synthetic turf are sport fields, it is difficult to obtain statistics regarding residential use. She contacted experts from Texas A & M University, professionals at the Ewing Irrigation firm, Howard Garrett, the Dirt Doctor, and the Turfgrass Resource Center. As a result, she reported that synthetic turf generates heat to the soil underneath, which can pass onto tree roots. Turf tested at 147 degrees at its surface, registered 87 degrees after sprinkling with water.
The Texas heat index is hot, but factors that were not considered following this test include the number of trees in Highland Park, and the canopy of shade they provide. In her research, Mrs. Stewart discovered that the City of Murphy and the City of Frisco do not allow any
Page 4 of 4
installation of synthetic turf for residential or commercial applications. The City of Westlake and the City of University Park do not require or issue permits for the installation of synthetic turf. Benefits of utilizing synthetic turf include saving water and its year-round green color.
Council Member Goodwin referenced a family in University Park that has synthetic turf in the front yard and the rear yard; she questioned if University Park plans to ban synthetic turf, to which Kathleen Stewart responded that University Park has no regulations currently in place.
Council Member Goodwin stated that she is sensitive to her neighbors’ opinions, which she stated are not favorable. Mayor Williams commented that water is such an important resource, and referenced the Town’s savings of one million gallons of water per year by making a number of changes in Flippen Park. He stated his belief that residents will soon be seeking permits to install synthetic turf in front yards where growing grass can be a challenge due to the shade.
Bill Lindley remarked that the yards in Highland Park are immensely landscaped, which contributes to high water consumption. Mayor Williams commented that synthetic turf does not require the use of pesticides, fertilizer, etc.; he asked if the Council wished to place synthetic turf on the agenda for the next Council meeting. Council Member McKnight stated he needed more information and reassurance that it will not ruin the beauty of the Town’s neighborhoods, and Council Member Carter stated that he opposes its installation in front yards.
Council Member Goodwin excused herself from the meeting at 9:53 a.m.
REPORTS
Review and discuss the Town’s participation in the “Barefoot on the Boulevard” Earth Day event at Southern Methodist University as part of the Town’s Water Conservation efforts.
Kathleen Stewart reported that representatives from the Town and from the City of University Park attended the event and rolled-out the “Conserve │ Preserve” water conservation program to approximately 200 attendees. The program includes a new website, and a new logo designed a middle school student. The water conservation program is a consortium that includes the Town, University Park, the Dallas County Park Cities Municipal Utility District, the Dallas Country Club, the Highland Park Village, and Southern Methodist University.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was adjourned at 9:58 a.m.
APPROVED on this the 22nd day of June, 2015.

TOWN OF HIGHLAND PARK Agenda Briefing
Council Meeting: June 22, 2015
Department: Engineering Director: Meran Dadgostar, P.E.
TITLE
Consider approval of an ordinance establishing the intersection of St. Johns Drive and Harvard Avenue as an all-way stop intersection.
BACKGROUND
The Town received a request from a resident for the installation of two stop signs at the intersection of St. Johns Drive and Harvard Avenue to make this an all-way stop intersection. Staff evaluated the intersection based on standard engineering criteria for the installation of stop signs. In completing the evaluation, the engineering staff utilized the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (TMUTCD). Any consideration to install traffic control devices must be in “substantial conformance”
with the standards issued and endorsed in the manual.
Section 2B of the TMUTCD provides that stop signs should be used if engineering judgment indicates that one or more of the following conditions exist:
At intersections with limited visibility or where restricted view requires road users to stop in order to adequately observe conflicting traffic on the through street.
•
Stopping the direction that conflicts with established pedestrian crossing activity or school walking routes.
•
High traffic volumes on through streets (usually more than 6,000 vehicles per day).
•
Crash records indicating that three or more crashes that are susceptible to correction by the installation of a stop sign have been reported within a 12-month period, or that five or more such crashes have been reported within a 2-year period. Such crashes include right-angle collisions involving road users on the minor-street approach failing to yield the right-of-way to traffic on the through street or highway.
•
Using the criteria established by the TMUTCD, the following warrants are provided for the installation of two stop signs at the intersection of St. Johns Drive and Harvard Avenue.
Visibility: When stopped at the existing stop sign at the southbound approach on St. Johns Drive, it is difficult to see the eastbound traffic due to an obstructive view caused by the existing landscaping. It is also difficult to see the westbound traffic due to the atypical configuration of the intersection.
•
Pedestrian conflicts: Not applicable
•
Traffic Volume: Not applicable
•
Accidents: One accident has been reported in the last five years.
•
RECOMMENDATION
The staff recommends approval. The Town Council reviewed this item at its study session on June 16, 2015.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The cost to install two stop signs will be approximately $300.00 and will come from the Street Department budget.
