Consider A Resolution Authorizing A Public Works Mutual Aid Agreement Allowing The City To Provide And Receive Mutual Aid With Other Cities In The North Central Texas Region As Needed In Times Of Emergencies. Person presenting this item: Jeremy Hutt, Director of Public Works BRIEF: Based on lessons learned from several past natural disasters and large scale incidents, public works support has been identified as a necessary resource which needed a more regional approach to coordination. As a result, the North Central Texas Public Works Emergency Response Team (PWERT) was created to provide public works assistance when an emergency or disaster overwhelms local resources especially within the North Central Texas region. While it was formed by and for local governments and operates on a voluntary quid pro quo basis, the team is supported and facilitated by the NCTCOG Emergency Preparedness Department. There are currently 61 member cities. While jurisdictions sign the mutual aid agreement to join the team, it is always up to that jurisdiction in any circumstance to either approve or deny a request for assistance. Signing the mutual aid agreement allows for this discretion by management, but it also offers the protection of payment terms and allowable Operational Period, which are required to protect the city if reimbursement is sought for a disaster in the future. The Agreement does not obligate the City of Cleburne to do anything, but puts in place the legal framework for Cleburne to provide assistance to other municipalities in the region in times of natural disasters or other kinds of emergencies. The agreement complies with Chapter 791, the Interlocal Cooperation Act, and the Texas Statewide Mutual Aid System of Chapter 418 of the Texas Local Government Code. While it is not possible to predict when or if Cleburne will be asked to provide aid to another city, or if Cleburne will ever request aid from another city, this agreement is beneficial to the interests of the city in times of emergency.

Person presenting this item: Shane Pace, Director of Community Development BRIEF: The applicant has requested to rezone approximately six (6) acres from SF-4 (Single Family Dwelling District) to D (Duplex District) with the intent to develop a sixteen (16) lot duplex subdivision. The applicant has provided a zoning exhibit which is conceptual in nature and not up for consideration as part of the zoning request. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan shows this property to be located in the Traditional Neighborhoods District. The proposed rezoning request is considered a specially permitted use in this district. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this request at their June 10, 2019 meeting. The original request submitted by the applicant was a straight zoning change from SF-4 to Duplex. At the June 10th meeting, the applicant distributed renderings of the proposed building elevations and floorplans for the proposed duplexes. The Planning and Zoning Commission moved to incorporate those elevations and the concept plan provided to staff, by recommending a change to a Planned Development with duplex uses with specific conditions. The recommendation for a Planned Development (PD) with Duplex Uses carried by a vote of 4-0, with the following conditions: 1. The elevations and site plan provided by the applicant shall be incorporated into the ordinance; 2. Playground equipment shall be included in the open space area; 3. One 3-inch caliper tree must be placed in every other front yard; 4. Brick entryway signage shall be included; 5. A perimeter screening wall shall be included along Fuller Avenue and along the southern property boundary. This request was considered by Council on June 25, 2019 at which time the Council moved to postpone to the July 9th meeting allowing the applicant to present a revised plan.
