Cameron said Partners in Development Research cares about future of the City. Mr. Cameron made three points: 1) The MAPC plan has over $2 billion for roads and highways. This information is from a May of 2000 news letter. 2) Wichita growth into other districts means hundreds of new students would need classrooms. 3) A conservative plan would eliminate the forced sale of private property for roads, etc. Less groth means less property needed for projects and citizens would not be forced to sell property.

IRB NMF AMERICA PUBLIC HEARING AND ISSUANCE OF INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS – NMF AMERICA, INC. (District II) Allen Bell Financial Projects Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-0654. On August 24, 1999, City Council approved a Letter of Intent to issue IRBs in the amount of $5 million, and approved a 100% five-plus-five year property tax abatement to NMF America, Inc. The Council also approved a grant for $267,800 which was used to acquire a site near Jabara Airport. Construction has begun on a 40,000 square foot manufacturing plant. The company is now requesting the IRBs to finance the construction and equipping of the plant. NMF America, Inc. is a leader in the aerospace niche market of wing skin manufacturing, with annual sales of $20 million. NMF America, Inc. manufacturing process involves the forming and finishing of aluminum wing panels used in the manufacture of business and regional jets, primarily for the Bombardier line of aircraft. NMF’s decision to come to the Wichita area was motivated in large part by Bombardier’s desire to have this prime sub- contractor located closer to what has become an important production center for Bombardier. They were also motivated by the opportunity to develop business relationships with the other aircraft manufacturers located in Wichita. The Company plans to employ at least 100 workers at the Wichita plant within the first five years of operation. Bonds will be underwritten by Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Inc. and publicly reoffered to private investors. NMF America, Inc. agrees to comply with the City’s requirements contained in the Standard Letter of Intent Conditions prior to final issuance of the bonds. Wichita State University previously conducted a cost-benefit analysis on the financial impact of this project which included its impact on USD 259. It was subsequently determined that actual project site is located in USD 375. It was necessary to recalculate the cost-benefit analysis and reapprove the tax abatement following a public hearing. The results of the recalculation show ratios as follows: City – 1.67; Sedgwick County – 1.40; USD 375 – 1.15; and State of Kansas – 3.49. Federal and State laws governing the issuance of tax-exempt bonds and granting of property tax exemption require a public hearing be held prior to final approval of the bonds and tax exemption, following publication of a notice of public hearing. A notice has been published for a public hearing on this matter for July 11, 2000. The company has asked the City to hold the hearing at this time and scheduled first reading of the bond ordinance for one week later. NMF America, Inc. agrees to pay all costs of issuing the bonds and agrees to pay the City's $2,500 annual IRB administrative service fee for the term of the bonds. The City Council has approved a 100% tax abatement of ad valorem property taxes on the expansion project. Bond documents have been prepared by Hinkle & Elkouri, bond counsel for the project. The City Attorney's Office will review and approve the final form of bond documents prior to the issuance of any bonds. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Pisciotte moved that the public hearing be closed; the property tax abatement and documents be approved; the -- carried issuance of bonds be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. MINI CIITYHALLS FINANCING FOR NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICE CENTERS. Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-0655. On March 23, 1999, the City Council approved the establishment of Neighborhood Service Centers, at (4) four locations: Atwater, Colvin, Evergreen, and Aley/Stanley. The four centers already house significant City services and serve as a focal point for citizen involvement. The newly created District Advisory Boards (DABs) hold meetings at these four locations and the centers are staffed by Neighborhood Assistants. Additionally, branch health stations are located at Colvin, Evergreen, and Aley/Stanley and recreational staff are assigned to each of the four locations. The Colvin and Aley/Stanley facilities are combined community and elementary educational facilities. Both locations operate branch libraries that serve the public and the school children. Community Education Coordinators are located at Colvin, Aley/Stanley, Northeast Magnet School, (Atwater Center is utilized when possible), and Hadley Middle School (Evergreen Center is utilized when possible). The four centers represent a substantial community investment and one that offers an effective, practical way to provide convenient public services. The facilities contain gymnasiums, meeting and office space, health stations (except for Atwater), and public libraries (in two facilities). Currently the space is underutilized (except for Colvin) and needs to be renovated to accommodate the added City staff and the area residents. The proposed renovations would enable these four centers to become “Mini-City Halls.” The concept for “Mini-City Halls” was approved by the City Council on March 23, 1999. City Council authorization included approval of funding for staffing assistance, architectural services and building modifications. On March 30, 1999, the Council authorized architectural services for all four Centers. In other Council actions additional Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds were approved to defray the cost of the renovation work. Architectural services for space design are nearly complete. All four Centers will have space for District Advisory Board meetings and office space for assigned Staff. Additionally, each center will have an information desk (staffed by a clerical person) to provide a central access and reception point for facility services. The “Mini-City Halls” will include computer stations for use by area residents and work stations for other City services. Modifications at Colvin and Evergreen are more complex with Colvin requiring a building addition to the facility to accommodate the multitude of needs by area residents. The proposed plans for Evergreen include significant modifications for both health and administrative services. The work planned at Aley/Stanley and Atwater is of lesser scope, but will include renovations which will make the buildings more accessible to area residents. 2000-2001 CSBG and CDBG funding has been approved by the City Council for the operations and renovations of the neighborhood centers. Council Member Lambke Council Member Lambke said he would like to eventually see Mini City Halls in each district. Mini City Hall buildings should be centrally located to provide access to a majority of the people in the district. The location of the Colvin Center is at the edge of District III, is hard to find, and a number of people have indicated they would not utilize that building. U.S.D. 259 also owns the Colvin site and the Board of Education could decide the City could no longer use Colvin as a Mini City Hall. Discussion was had and consensus of the City Council was favorable to having locations in every district in the future. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard. Sen. Paul Feleciano Senator Feleciano said he had received many telephone calls from constituents urging continuance of the Mini City Hall effort at Colvin. Senator Feleciano spoke regarding the significance and uniqueness of Colvin, and asked, on behalf of the citizens of the area, that the City Council proceed with architectural plans. Rep. Gwen Welshimer Representative Welshimer spoke regarding the many services presently available at Colvin and urged approval of Colvin as the site for a Mini City Hall. Dr. Toni Pickard Dr. Toni Pickard said Planeview is a friendly neighborhood with hardworking, highly family-oriented residents. A very high percentage of residents in the Planeview area have no family vehicle and the Colvin site would allow them access to City Hall. Diversity is an issue. The City Council was urged to retain the proposed plan. Karen Smith Karen Smith said Colvin is hard to find, hard to access, and does not have adequate parking. Other areas in the quadrant should be considered. Marge Zakora-Vaughn Marge Zakora Vaughn spoke in favor of the Colvin site and said additional signage is needed for all of the proposed Mini City Hall locations. Motion -- Knight moved that the Center locations be affirmed and Staff be authorized to proceed with bids for renovation -- carried and construction work as proposed. Motion carried 6 to 0. Lambke – no. 2002 BUDGET PRESENTATION - PROPOSED 2001-2002 ANNUAL OPERATING BUDGET. Chris Cherches City Manager introduced the Item. To building on the City’s existing firm foundation, the Mayor, City Council, an others have expressed the belief that the operating and capital budgets should: ? sustain the continued development of the City, ? reinvest in the City’s infrastructure to serve the current and future needs, ? target resources in ways that are demonstrably beneficial for the entire community, ? serve priorities and needs identified by the community (in the citizen surveys) so City services are responsive to the public, and ? address major needs, such as preserving public safety, making critical capital investments, and providing effective maintenance and upkeep to the City’s assets. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the proposed budget. ? The total 2001 proposed budget (all funds) is $309,960,840, a 7 percent decrease from the 2000 revised budget of $331,719,399. The 2002 projected budget totals $309,508,640. ? General Fund expenditures of $148,833,030 are proposed in 2001, a 3% increase over the 2000 revised budget. ? The 2001 proposed budget does not include a mill levy increase. ? The 120 commissioned positions and 16 suport positions added with the Public Safety Initiative are fully sustained in 2001 without grant funding. ? Continued development of E-government is supported, including on-line vendor registration, bid submission, invoice submission, and invoice payment. ? To continue enhanced street maintenance, an additional $12 million is included annually. Also, a $1.2 million supplement is provided for “catch-up” building maintenance. ? Street maintenance will be bolstered with an additional maintenance crew. ? Maintenance of public landscaping will be improved with the addition of a park maintenance crew in 2001. ? The budget continues to provide for the extended library hours and funds a bookmobile in 2001 to reach under-served residents. ? To ensure that fleet services are provided and utilized in the most economical manner, a comprehensive fleet study is underway. ? Anticipating the need for multiple fire station moves to sustain efficient response to calls, $6 million has been allocated to relocate fire stations, in addition to 10 new firefighters in 2002. ? Both a water rate and sewer rate increase of 5% will be require din 2001 to fund capital needs of the utilities. An increase of five cents per ERU is included to address specific storm water “hot spots.” ? A new public safety information system is included to facilitate record sharing and desktop retrieval of police and court records. The system utilizes bar coding, imaging, and scanning technology.

(REQUESTED BY COUNCIL MEMBER LAMBKE) Council Member Lambke Council Member Lambke said each Fourth of July brings increasing problems with illegal fireworks. The problem may be inadequate laws or lack of enforcement. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight said that if the laws are unenforceable, perhaps new ordinances are needed. The City could also say that under no circumstances will fireworks be allowed, with the exception of those permitted for public programs. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole stated that, in 1999, a door-to-door leaflet safety campaign was successful and education might help. The whole issue does need to be discussed again. Council Member Cole momentarily absent. Council Member Rogers Council Member Rogers said there is no logical reason for fireworks of any kind within the City limits. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard. Bob Thompson Chief Thompson said the enforcement needs to be fixed. Gerald Lintecum Gerald Lintecum, pyrotechnics specialist, said he would like to work with the Fire Department on tring to develop a good program. Everyone is trying to fix the problem. People and groups in the fireworks business are trying to make the situation as good as possible. Marge Zakora-Vaughn Marge Zakora-Vaughn said the problem is wide-spread and people who suffer from fireworks problems often suffer with increased insurance premiums.

IMPROVEMENTS PETITION AND CHANGE ORDER FOR BOARDWALK AND UTILITY SERVICE LINES TO SERVE PROPERTIES ON MEAD, BETWEEN DOUGLAS AND FIRST STREET. (District VI) Agenda Report No. 00-0660. On August 26, 1997, the City Council approved a project to reconstruct Mead between Douglas and First. A construction Contract with Cornejo and Sons was approved on January 11, 2000. As work progressed on the project, staff and two of the owners of property along Mead determined that six water and sewer service connection lines should be extended under the traveled portion of the street so that it would not need to be torn up in the future when these service connection lines are extended to adjacent buildings. The six service connections each cost $2,100. In addition to the six water and sewer extensions, it was also necessary to reconstruct a storm sewer inlet and repair an existing storm sewer line at a cost of an additional $2,100. Included with the Change Order for the above-described utility work is a project to construct a boardwalk along property owned by David Burk. Mr. Burk submitted a Petition in the amount of $53,300 to cover both the cost of the boardwalk work (including construction and engineering expenses) and three of the six water and sewer extensions that will serve properties he owns. His signature represents 100% of the improvement district. A Change Order to authorize the additional work has been prepared. The Change Order includes the six water and sewer extensions, the storm sewer modifications and the proposed boardwalk construction. The cost of the storm sewer work will be paid by the Mead project budget and will be paid 50% by the City at-large and 50% by special assessments to adjacent properties. The cost of three of the six water and sewer extensions will be paid by special assessments to Mr. Burk's properties. The cost of the remaining three water and sewer extensions will be paid by the Water and Sewer Utility Funds and will be recouped through plumbing permit fees when future connections are made. The total construction cost of the additional work is $56,143, and will be paid as follows: Mead Project Budges (50% General Obligation, 50% Special Assessments) $ 2,100 Burk Petition (100% Special Assessments) 47,743 Water Utility Fund 4,200 Sewer Utility Fund 2,100 $ 56,143 The Change Order amount is within 25% of the construction Contract cost limit set by City Council policy.

(District II) Agenda Report No. 00-0667. Inflow and infiltration (I&I) of stormwater and groundwater into the City sanitary sewer system has resulted in sewer backups into basements, treatment of excessive amounts of sewage, high treatment costs, and overloaded sanitary sewer lines. The Sewer Response Plan identified I&I as a primary contributor to sewer backups in the City. Additionally, the Plan identified manholes and line segments in need of repair, as well as illegal connections of sump pumps and stairwell drains, which contribute to I&I. On January 6, 1998, the City Council approved funding for an I&I Removal Program to aid in the elimination of I&I sources. Specific recommendations made as part of the Sewer Response Plan will be implemented by this project. George Butler and Associates (GBA), as part of the Contract for the Sewer Response Plan, investigated several sites where excessive I&I was evident. The Stockyards area, 21st Street between Broadway and Washington, was identified as a project meeting criteria of the I&I Removal Program. GBA was asked to provide alternative approaches to resolve the I&I; however, this is not in the Scope of Services of the Sewer Response Plan and requires a Supplemental Agreement. Funding for Supplemental Agreement #2 in an amount not to exceed $23,000 is contained in Capital Improvement Program (CIP# S-338), which has a budget of $500,000. The project will be funded from Water Utility revenues and reserves, or a future revenue bond issue.

Yeas: Cole, Gale, Lambke, Martz, Pisciotte, Rogers, Knight HOUSING APPLICATION FOR SECTION 8 VOUCHERS FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES. Agenda Report No. 00-0668. On February 24, 2000, HUD issued a Notice in the Federal Register that the Secretary of HUD had set aside $50.25 million for the Mainstream Housing Opportunities Program for persons with disabilities. The Secretary established the Mainstream Housing Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities Program to provide rental Vouchers to enable persons with disabilities to rent affordable private housing of their choice. A segment of the population recognized by HUD's Housing research as having the worst case housing need in the U.S. were the "Very Low" income households with adults with disabilities. This Mainstream Program will require Housing Authorities to assist eligible persons with disabilities in locating and obtaining accessibility to affordable housing on the private market. The Wichita Housing Authority has approximately 2,000 applicants on the current Section 8 waiting list. Approximately 30% are elderly or persons with disabilities. Approval and financial assistance for 75 additional Vouchers are justified in the application to HUD. If the application is approved by HUD, 75 Vouchers will expand the Mainstream Program to 150 allocations. The application due date to HUD is July 18, 2000. On June 15, 2000, the BOHC unanimously approved submittal of the application. The additional 75 vouchers will produce approximately $2,000,000 in HAP payments over the five year period. The Housing Authority will also earn administrative fees of approximately $36,000 annually. The City of Wichita will not have additional financial obligations to support the Vouchers. Motion -- Knight moved that the preparation and submittal of application to HUD for 75 Vouchers for persons with -- carried disabilities be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. HOUSING SECTION 8 HOMEOWNERSHIP PROGRAM. Agenda Report No. 00-0669. The Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998, otherwise known as the 1998 Housing Reform Act, included amendments to the 1937 Housing Act which will allow Housing Authorities to use Section 8 vouchers to assist eligible program participants to become homeowners. HUD has issued proposed regulations to implement a Section 8 Homeownership option as provided by these amendments. The Board of Housing Commissioners have reviewed and approved the concept, and requested that staff develop the necessary amendments to the Administrative Plan. A copy of a new proposed section, incorporating the Section 8 Homeownership Option into the Administrative Plan, has been provided. There may be additional minor technical changes to other sections, as necessary, to make those sections consistent with the Homeownership Program. The regular Section 8 program provides assistance in the form of a voucher to pay a portion of a low-income family’s rent. Under the HUD Section 8(y) program, families can be assisted with the purchase of a home through assistance that can be applied to the family’s regular mortgage payment. It is the purpose of this program to encourage homeownership among families which meet Section 8 income guidelines, but who may not otherwise be able to move from tenancy to ownership. The availability of these assistance payments helps the family pay the costs of homeownership, and may provide additional assurance for a lender, so that the family can finance the purchase of the home. This program can be used in conjunction with the HOMEownership 80 program, the Affordable Housing Program funded by the Federal Home Loan Bank, or other homeownership assistance programs. The Housing Department will implement this program in two stages. During stage one the homeownership option will be made available to families who are current participants in the Section 8 Voucher and Certificate rental assistance programs. During stage two, the Section 8 Homeownership Assistance Program will be made available as an option at the time a family is eligible from the wait list. Participation in this program will be voluntary and would be limited by minimum income (varies with family size) and employment requirements (one year). Only first-time homebuyers would qualify; each participant would be required to complete a homeownership training class. Each home purchased under this program would have to pass housing quality standards, would have a separate inspection by a private housing inspector, and if repairs are needed, they would have to be completed by the seller. In addition, homebuyers would be required to participate in the Maintenance Reserve Program to receive the Section 8 assistance. Except for elderly or disabled participants, the assistance would be limited to seven years. The amount of assistance to be provided would be calculated on a formula similar to the one currently used for the Section 8 Voucher Program. Payments would be made to the tenant to be applied toward the mortgage payment. The lending institution would be required to notify the Housing Authority should the family not make its mortgage payments. Continued assistance would be conditional on the family’s occupancy of the home as its principal residence. Since HUD has not issued final regulations, staff has requested authority to implement the program as a “demonstration program” pending issuance and compliance with final regulations when issued. The Housing Authority will earn administrative fees on the same basis as under the Section 8 Rental Voucher program. Motion -- Knight moved that the revisions to the Administrative Plan to allow for implementation of the voucher assistance -- carried for home ownership be approved. Motion carried 7 to 0. CIP CONSOLIDATION CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT CONSOLIDATION. (District II) Agenda Report No. 00-0670. On March 21, 2000, the City Council authorized Staff to install a water main in Webb Road from ¼ mile south of 45th St. N. to 45th St. N. (CIP W-817) and to install a water main in Webb Road from 45th St. N. to 53rd St. N. (CIP W-818). Public Works is recommending that these two projects be combined into one contract. The total CIP budget will not be changed by combining CIP W-817 and CIP W-818. City Council approval is required for any change to the Capital Improvement Program. Motion -- Knight moved that Staff be authorized to combine the two projects by deleting CIP W-817 with a budget of -- carried $320,000 and transferring the amount to W-818. Motion carried 7 to 0. IRB-RIVERSIDE HOSP. IRB - AUTHORIZATION TO JOIN IN EXEMPTION APPLICATION – RIVERSIDE HOSPITAL FACILITIES REVENUE BONDS. Agenda Report No. 00-0671. Riverside Hospital facilities financed by City of Wichita IRBs were recently placed on the tax rolls by the County. These facilities were financed with Hospital Facilities Revenue Bonds issued by the City of Wichita in 1999. Tax exemption is being sought based on ownership and use of the facilities by Riverside Health Systems, Inc. (a 501(c)(3) organization), for exempt purposes. Riverside Health Systems has requested the City join in the application, to enable the application to go forward. Under the IRB Lease that covers the facilities, the City of Wichita acknowledged that Riverside would seek exemption for the property based on its 501(c)(3) status, and agreed to reasonably cooperate to prevent any assessment that might be threatened with respect to the property. Because of the IRB financing, the City, rather than Riverside, has title to the facilities and must, therefore, formally join in the application in order for the exemption to be approved. The exemption will affect the City’s tax base. However, had the facilities been financed without IRB’s, they likely would have been exempted due to their hospital use and ownership. Motion -- Knight moved that the joinder in Riverside’s application for exemption for the Riverside Hospital facilities financed by City of Wichita Hospital Facilities Improvement Revenue Bonds be approved and the necessary -- carried signatures be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. IRB-THE VYNE IRB - PURCHASE OPTION – THE VYNE AT CRESTVIEW, L.L.C. (District V) Agenda Report No. 00-0672. On October 17, 1995 the Wichita City Council approved the issuance of $2.5 million in Industrial Revenue Bonds, Series VIII, 1995. Bond proceeds were used to acquire vacant land located at Central and 127th Street East and to construct, furnish and equip an assisted living facility. The Bonds are secured, in part, by a Lease Agreement with The Vyne at Crestview, L.L.C. (“Tenant”). Under the provisions of the Lease Agreement the Tenant has the option, if all outstanding bonds and Trustee Fees have been paid, to purchase the facility from the City of Wichita for the sum of $1,000. The City received notice from the Tenant of a request to call outstanding bonds and of the company’s intention to exercise its purchase option on or after July 20, 2000. Under the terms of the Lease, the City is required to convey the personal property securing the IRB issue to the Tenant, once the Tenant has paid the purchase price and other considerations as listed under the provisions of the Lease Agreement, including the payment of all outstanding bonds. The Bonds will be finally paid roughly 30 days after closing on the reconveyance, but will be defeased by cash escrow before the City’s deed is delivered. The purchase price is $1,000 and other considerations as listed under the provision of the Lease Agreement to redeem and retire all outstanding bonds. This price includes without limitations, principal, interest, redemption premium, and all other expenses of redemption, and trustee fees, but after the deduction of any amounts described and provided for in the Lease Agreement and available for such redemption. The City is contractually bound to convey the IRB Project property to the Tenant by special warranty deed, once all the conditions established in the Lease have been met.

(District I) Agenda Report No.00-0673. In the easement between Belmont and Broadview, north of Central, there is a sanitary sewer line in need of immediate attention. The tap connections for 517 N. Belmont and 519 N. Belmont are defective and causing problems for the homeowners. A television inspection performed on June 22nd verified the condition of the connections. The pipe is in poor condition and could crumble when disturbed by excavation to replace the connections. The pipe condition, combined with an easement full of mature trees, fences, and landscaped areas, presents a circumstance where a simple point repair could result in a costly project. The recommendation is to line the sanitary sewer with cured-in-place liner prior to making point repairs to replace the defective tap connections. This would allow the point repairs to be less disruptive and assure a good connection to new pipe. Insituform Technologies, Inc., the only local pipe lining company, has been contracted do the improvements for $24,080. The City Manager approved proceeding with the project on June 27, 2000. Capital Improvement Program (CIP #S-4), Reconstruction of Sanitary Sewers, has a budget of $3,000,000 for 2000. This repair will be funded from Sewer Utility Revenues and Reserves and/or a future revenue bond issue. City Ordinance 2.64.020, “Public Exigency,” authorizes the City Manager to approve work to be performed by a contractor without formal bidding. Motion -- carried Knight moved that approval of the project be affirmed. Motion carried 7 to 0. (Addendum Item No. 31b) PROPERTY DISP. SALE OF PROPERTY AT 2201-221 EAST KELLLOGG. Agenda Report No. 00-0686 As part of the Kellogg Flyover project, the City acquired the seven-story transient lodging facility at 221 East Kellogg commonly known as the Family Inn. It also acquired the former Budget Rent-a-Car site at 201 East Kellogg. Both properties are currently vacant. These have been listed for sale under an exclusive broker listing since September 1999. Prior to that, the properties were included in a Request for Proposal that was mailed to several hundred potential buyers. This process has produced several potential purchasers, one of which is Paul Winger. Mr. Winger has owned and operated a variety of properties for over 30 years. The company’s experience includes both renovation and new construction. Currently they own several multi-family properties in the Wichita area. Mr. Winger has offered $1,200,000 for the Family Inns and Budget facilities. The buyer is required to renovate and reopen the facility as a franchised lodging facility within two years of acquisition. Redevelopment plans and franchise affiliation are subject to review and approval by the City. The City will work with the buyer to develop a deceleration lane at the entrance to the hotel and to acquire the two privately held parcels west of the hotel. The buyer and seller will split closing and title costs. The City will be responsible for a six- percent sales commission. The City will receive cash consideration from the transaction. After the sale, the property will remain on the tax rolls. Motion -- carried Knight moved that the sale be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. PROPERTY ACQ. ACQUISITION OF 19 DRURY LANE FOR THE EAST KELLOGG IMPROVEMENT PROJECT. (District II) Agenda Report No. 00-0674. In October of 1998, staff was instructed to pursue opportunity purchases in the Kellogg corridor. Opportunity purchases arise when an owner contacts the City and indicates a willingness to sell their property. The owners of 19 Drury Lane, Terry and Kay Bachus, have expressed an interest in selling this property to the City. The site contains 12,350 square feet and is improved with a 2,070 square foot brick, ranch-style single family residence. The property has three bedrooms and two baths. The planned expansion of Kellogg will require the removal of the improvements and utilization of the entire site. The property was appraised at $134,000. The owner has located an acceptable replacement dwelling that is currently available for $179,000 and has agreed to accept this amount. Early acquisition will avoid future relocation and moving expenses. The property appears to be in good condition with no deferred maintenance noted. The residence will be leased until it is needed for the highway project. The Capital Improvement Program includes funds for opportunity acquisitions. The funding source will be General Obligation Bonds. A budget of $185,000 is requested. This includes $179,000 for the acquisition, $5,000 for demolition and $1,000 for closing costs and title insurance.

Staff Recommendation: Deny zone change to “LC” Limited Commercial, but approve the use of animal care, limited for Parcel 2. Approve the zone change to “LC” Limited Commercial for Parcel 8 but restrict the “LC” uses to those permitted in “NR” zoning,. Approve the amendment to Community Unit Plan, subject to conditions. The applicant is requesting an amendment to DP-242 Ridge Centre Community Unit Plan located at the southwest corner of Ridge Road and 37th Street North and zone changes for Parcel 2, a 0.9 acre tract, and Parcel 8, a 1.2 acre tract, to “LC” Limited Commercial. According to the applicant, there is a proposed veterinary clinic for Parcel 2 and a strip center for Parcel 8. Ridge Centre C.U.P. was approved May 26, 1999. The applicant had requested “LC” zoning for all nine parcels of the C.U.P. However, MAPC recommended and the Board of County Commissioners approved “NR” Neighborhood Retail, restricted to “GO” General Office use, for four of the nine parcels, including the two parcels submitted for rezoning in this request. The parcels approved for “LC” were situated closest to the intersection of Ridge and 37th Street North. The “NR” parcels were restricted to “GO” uses, and served as a buffer for the Big Slough, the lake, and the projected residential uses to the west from the more intense commercial uses being allowed at the intersection. DP-245 Catamaran Cove C.U.P. is the C.U.P. immediately to the west. It includes the Big Slough and the lake, and is approved for multi-family development. The applicant has requested all uses permitted in the “LC” district for Parcels 2 and 8 except the following exclusions: residential uses, public uses except daycare, pawnshops, secondhand stores, taverns night clubs, drinking establishments or adult entertainment. The applicant had proposed no changes to signage, setbacks, access control, landscaping, or architectural standards when the application was filed. However, at the MAPC meeting the applicant requested signage for Parcel 2 and Parcel 8 be amended to signage as permitted in “LC”, but subject General Provision #5 that limits freestanding signs to 20 feet in height and monument style. Ridge Centre is in a rapidly changing corridor. One recently approved development is DP-237 Ridgeport North C.U.P. to the east, which is under development with a medical office and is approved for a new medical facility for Via Christi. DP-250 Starwest C.U.P. was approved for the northwest corner of 37th and Ridge. Pending applications include DP-253 Kaylor C.U.P. just north of Starwest, and DP-252 Paragon C.U.P. just south of K-96. Additionally, single-family and multi-family housing is being developed closer to 29th Street North, and Catamaran Cove was approved for multi-family use immediately west of Ridge Centre. With the volume of potential development along Ridge, floodplain issues have become a major concern. This is an area impacted by the floodway of the Big Slough. Currently, a master basin study is being prepared for the area along the Big Slough from 21st Street North to 45th Street North. At the MAPC meeting held June 15, 2000, MAPC voted (6-4) to approve the requests. Several commissioners expressed opposition to rezoning the parcels to “LC” because it reversed the CUP conditions established one year before, and it reduced the buffering by office and neighborhood retail uses between residential uses and the intensive commercial uses allowed at the intersection. One citizen said she felt drainage and flooding issues along the Big Slough should be resolved prior to development. Another citizen expressed opposition to rezoning Parcel 8 to “LC.” Motion -- carried Martz moved this Item be referred to District V Advisory Board. Motion carried 7 to 0.

The Metropolitan Area Planning Commission (MAPC) conducted an extensive review of the Comprehensive Plan for Wichita and Sedgwick County, which was adopted in 1993 and last amended in 1996, and of the long-range transportation plan, which was adopted in 1994. The MAPC, with the assistance of the Planning Department, contracted with WSU to project population and employment, sponsored a mini-conference, hosted “stakeholder” meetings, conducted a mail-out opinion survey, circulated five editions of a newsletter, and held numerous town hall meetings and public hearings in an effort to obtain community input on planning issues. The MAPC adopted major amendments to these plans on March 16, 2000, and officially presented these amendments to the Wichita City Council and Sedgwick County Commission at a workshop on April 11, 2000. The two governing bodies have had several workshops since that time discussing the proposed amendments, and appear to have reached a consensus to approve the plans as recommended by the MAPC, subject to some language changes. The governing bodies have also identified a number of issue areas that require further review and discussion. Most of these issues would be appropriate for review by a broad-based citizen advisory committee that is expected to be appointed in the near future. One issue area that was not previously raised in discussions on the Comprehensive Plan would be referred back to the MAPC for their consideration. Adoption of the Comprehensive Plan does not obligate the City or County to make any capital improvements; the plan is only a guide to future decision-making. If the governing bodies decide to fund consultants to help understand issues related to financing community development and facilitate meetings of the Advisory Committee, staff will return with a proposed scope of services, recommended consultant, and cost estimate for that study. State statute requires that a Comprehensive Plan be adopted by a locality and regularly reviewed in order to regulate land subdivisions. The Comprehensive Plan or amendments to the plan must be adopted by the governing body after the local planning commission has held an advertised public hearing and submitted its recommendations. The governing body can adopt the recommended plan by a majority vote, but may only modify recommendations submitted by the MAPC, on first consideration, by a 2/3 vote. The federal government requires the adoption of a long-range transportation plan by the “Metropolitan Planning Organization” (MPO) in order to remain qualified to receive federal grant funds for surface and air transportation. The MAPC is officially designated as the MPO for Sedgwick County, and they have met this obligation by adopting the 2030 Transportation Plan. However, in order to meet the statutory requirement, and to avoid confusion as to what is the official plan, it is important for the governing bodies to act on the MAPC recommendations. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole spoke against the plan and said the plan will not help the inner-city neighborhoods. Older neighborhoods will lose more to new construction in the suburbs. A Comprehensive Plan Task Force, formed after adoption of the Plan, may never have its work reflected in the Plan. Council Member Pisciotte Council Member Pisciotte urged Council approval of the Plan and a common-ground stand. Motion -- Pisciotte moved that the amendments to the Comprehensive and Transportation Plans be adopted, subject to language changes; the Ordinance be placed on first reading; the issues regarding agricultural preservation techniques, large lot subdivisions and financing of community development be referred to a citizen advisory committee; Staff be directed to seek consulting services to assist the Advisory Committee; and question of notification of property owners of subdivision plats be referred to the MAPC for consideration. Motion carried -- carried 6 to 1. Cole – no. ORDINANCE An Ordinance improving certain amendments to the 1993 Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive Plan, introduced and under the rules laid over. AIRPORT AGENDA AIRPORT IMP. GRANT AGREEMENT – AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM. Agenda Report No. 00-0685. On May 23, 2000 the City Council approved a grant application in the amount of $885,563.00 for airport improvements. The Grant Agreement is based upon consultation between the FAA and Airport Staff and is an appropriate use of FAA entitlement funds. The Grant Agreement of $885,563.00 will be used for the projects listed in the grant application: snow sweeper/blower equipment, runway “1R/19L” shoulder blast pad rehabilitation, baggage claim area fence, airfield electrical vault improvements, and terminal apron rehabilitation. Matching funds of 10% will be met through the Passenger Facility Charges. Motion -- Knight moved that the Grant Agreement be accepted and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion carried -- carried 7 to 0.

A 99-37 A 99-37 – ANNEXATION OF ELIGIBLE PROPERTIES GENERALLY LOCATED NORTH AND SOUTH OF 21ST STREET NORTH AND EAST AND WEST OF HOOVER. (District V) Marvin Krout Director of Planning reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-0658. On May 2, 2000, the City Council adopted a resolution that established July 11, 2000, at 7:00 p.m. at the Sedgwick County Extension Center, 7001 West 21st Street North, Wichita, Kansas as the date, time and place for a public hearing for this annexation. The properties proposed for annexation are located north and south of 21st Street North and east and west of Hoover. The subject area consists of approximately 611 acres and 47 properties (1 platted and 46 unplatted). The land-use pattern consists of 35 residential tracts, 6 commercial tracts, 4 farm-related tracts, and 2 vacant tracts. A small portion of Maize Road, north of 21st Street North, and that portion of Ridge Road, from 21st Street North to a ½ mile south of 29th Street North, is also included. The land use pattern of the area proposed for annexation is a mix of residential uses, agricultural uses, with some commercial and industrial uses concentrated along the Hoover Road. The majority of the subject property is zoned “SF-20” Single-Family Residential, with several areas zoned “LC” Limited Commercial and “LI” Limited Industrial. Those areas zoned “SF-20" will convert to the "SF-6" Single-Family Residential district upon annexation (“SF-10” if requested by property owner and approved by the governing body), while other properties will retain their existing zoning. A 20-acre tract located north of 21st Street and east of Hoover was recently approved for “IP” Industrial Park zoning by the County Commission subject to platting. The majority of the land proposed for annexation is located within the area identified as “low-density residential”, with some “commercial” and “industrial” areas intermixed, according to the 1999 Update to the Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive Plan: Preparing for Change Land Use Guide Map, recently approved by the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission. Also, the proposed annexation area is located within the “2010 Urban Service Area”, and “2030 Urban Service Area” boundaries found in the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments. The land use pattern within the annexation area is generally consistent with its land use designation in the updated Plan. An informational meeting regarding the proposed annexation was held on June 7, 2000 at the Sedgwick County Extension Center, 7001 W. 21st Street N. Approximately 32 property owners and interested citizens attended the meeting and asked numerous questions regarding the proposed annexation. In accordance with Kansas statutes, a Service Extension Plan was prepared for this unilateral annexation. The Plan describes the means by which City services will be extended to the area. Map No. 2A in the Plan shows the properties proposed for annexation. The analysis of the proposed annexation is contained in the plan. The total appraised value of the land and improvements proposed for annexation is $2,037,970 resulting in an annual City Ad Valorem tax revenue of approximately $9,615. Major municipal services to be provided to this area upon annexation are street maintenance, ditch cleaning, culvert cleaning, fire protection, police protection, building code enforcement, and health code enforcement. The operating departments currently delivering these services will fund them upon annexation. Major municipal services, such as local street improvements, water and sewer service, may be provided to this area upon request of the property owners. The cost of municipal services requested by the property owners will be distributed among the City at large and the benefiting property owners according to current City policies. The Service Extension Plan has been on file for public inspection in the Office of the City Clerk. Copies of the resolution establishing the public hearing, a map (showing the properties included) and a notice of the public hearing, were sent by certified mail to all property owners of record in the proposed annexation area and to other established governmental entities and utility services. Copies of the resolution and map have also been published in the official City newspaper as further notification of the scheduled public hearing. The Metropolitan Area Planning Commission reviewed the proposed annexation for compatibility with the Comprehensive Plan on May 25, 2000. The staff report presented at the MAPC meeting indicated that the proposed annexation was in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. The MAPC found the proposed annexation in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan by a vote of ten to zero (10-0). In conducting the public hearing, Kansas statutes require that the City’s plan for extending major municipal services be presented and that all persons interested in the annexation be heard. After hearing all comments of the persons interested, the City Council has the option of continuing or closing the public hearing, and approving or rejecting the annexation proposal. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard. Kenneth Kindler Spoke against the annexation and said he would receive no benefit from the annexation. Ed Roberts Ed Roberts, representing a property owner in the area, inquired regarding annexation of agricultural-use property. Marvin Krout Director of Planning responded that, in accordance with State Statutes, property the City was annexing was not identified as agriculturally exempt, or assessed as agricultural, by Sedgwick County. Motion -- Martz moved that the Public Hearing be closed, the annexation request be approved, and the Ordinance be placed -- carried on first reading. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) ORDINANCE An Ordinance including and incorporating certain blocks, parcels, pieces, and tracts of land within the limits and boundaries of the City of Wichita, Kansas, and relating thereto, introduced and under the rules laid over.
