CONSENT AGENDA
2. a) Approve Minutes: March 19, 2007 -Minutes
b) Disbursements
Motion was made by Councilman Ervin to approve consent agenda. Seconded by
Councilman Garza. Motion carried 3-1. Councilman Walker abstained.
3. Citizen's Input:
Citizens are allowed 3 minutes to speak. The City Council is unable to respond to or to discuss any issues that
are brought up during this section.
Carolyn Frazier addressed City Council concerning Keep Sanger Beautiful Board and the
three projects they are working on. Mrs. Frazier'a presentation involved the Keaton Road
it, coming up from the flags which is the white concrete wall. They are currently
working with TX DOT and Russell Martin (Hollingsworth Manufacturing). Their project
includes placing iron works on that wall which will be bolted down with screws. The iron
display will last for years and can be repainted through the years if needed. The designs
will include a stagecoach, train and an old car. If I-35 is ever widened, they can remove
them and place them somewhere else. This will promote Sanger's heritage.
The second project is to add the Sanger flag to both entrances. This project will be done
quickly.
The third project is to landscape the four corners of the parks alike. They have spoken to
Stan Lovelace and he will be starting immediately.
Keep Sanger Beautiful is up again for a grant funding of $70,000.00.
Mrs. Frazier continued with her presentation and discussed all the projects they do during
the year. At Tenderfoot school they did a phonebook recycle. The last of this month they
will do a Science Expo at the high school. They also conduct the City wide garage sale, yard
of the month, a trash -off, memorial lane, fall awareness, and an arbor day poster contest
with the fifth graders. She informed Council that there was a girl in the fifth grade whose
poster was chosen to hang in the Capital. Last year they won a media award with the
paper. They also have a monarch butterfly program at Chisholm Trail and have at least
one and as many as three projects going on at all the schools.
City Manager advised It Frazier that John Henderson (Street Supt.) had told him that
at the entrance coming in from the South there were two bushes that were dead. They
think the herbicide TXDOT uses to kill the weeds killed those bushes at the end. They will
contact TX DOT concerning how they spray.
Mrs. Frazier indicated to please not bring up "Keep Sanger Beautiful," since they are trying
to get that entrance done.
Mrs. Frazier indicated that anyone that will dump trash at the "Trash Off' must have a
city zip code. Mrs. Frazier indicated they met with Curtis Amyx and John Henderson and
made a list of rules that were published in the paper. They will have a specific starting time
and a list of what can be dumped. She also indicated they welcome all volunteers.
4. Conduct Public Hearing Regarding a Specific Use Permit for the Construction of the
Elementary School in an AG (Agriculture) Zoning District. Property is Legally Described

12. Conduct Public Hearing to Consider Ordinance #04-08-07 -Amending the Comprehensive
Zoning Ordinance by Amending Section 42.2 Special Definitions and Amending 30.2
Schedule of Uses, Amending the Code of Ordinances by Amending Section 3.104 Sign
Regulations.
Mayor declared Public Hearing open.
No one spoke for or against.
Mayor declared Public Hearing closed.
13. Consider and Possible Action on Ordinance #04-08-07 Amending the Comprehensive
Zoning Ordinance by Amending Section 42.2 Special Definitions and Amending 30.2
Schedule of Uses, Amending the Code of Ordinances by Amending Section 3.104 Sign
Regulations.
City Manager indicated this created a special definition for Quick Service Food and
Beverage Shop and designates the use with a Specific Use Permit in B-1, B-2, B-3, I-1 and
I-2 Districts. On the signs, no luminous signs can be visible from the street.
Mayor inquired if this ordinance was approved by the City Attorney.
City Manager indicated it was.
Councilman Walker indicated he thought they had grand -fathered certain businesses.
Economic Development Director Cecile Carson, indicated there were some existing si
Egns
that were grand -fathered and documented for future reference.
Discussion on the drive-thru(s) that are in existence.
Councilman Walker expressed a concern that he did not want to turn the City of Sanger
into a as Vegas. They are limiting the trashiness of these signs and yet allowing beer and
wine drive-thru establishments which defeat the purpose of trying to regulate it.
Concerns were expressed by Council regarding the definition and the ramifications of this
ordinance. The ordinance that was in place does regulate the luminous signs and does not
allow them.
City Secretary did advise that the ordinance that was passed previously by Council had
opposition from the City Attorney. His concern was that City Council could not be more
regulatory than the T.A.B.C.
Councilman Patton made a motion to table this ordinance to the next meeting until
Council gets clarification from Robert Dillard, City Attorney, concerning the legality of this
ordinance. Seconded by Councilman Ervin. Motion Carried unanimously.
Councilman Walker also indicated he would like Mr. Dillard to investigate what it would
take to limit a drive-thru.
Ms. Carson indicated there are other cities that have ordinances that are similar in wording
to what the Council has adopted with the existing ordinance which does not allow them.
14. Consider and Possible Action on Ordinance #04-11-07 -Amending the Water and Sewer
Service Rates for Multi -Unit Commercial Structures (Clarifying the language in the
Ordinance).
City Manager indicated that what is in place, regulates that when there is more than one
business that is serviced from one meter, then the City bills that customer on a per unit
basis. Recently staff discovered that erroneously some of those customers were not being
billed correctly. The personnel has changed and now those customers are being billed
correctly which has caused some issues with the ordinance. This is the same procedure that
is done for residential apartment complexes.
Councilman Ervin indicated he had a problem with the ordinance and felt that it is not
right.
John Bucklew addressed council concerning his bills. He presented copies of his last three
months' utility bills. He addressed the inconsistency of his bills. He explained that the
City of Denton does not bill in this manner. He suggested that Council set a guideline on
how the multi commercial units are billed, which would simplify this for City staff and
business owners.
City Secretary explained that it is difficult in the manner it is currently billed; however, it
has been in place since 1976. She suggested that if Council wants staff to investigate how
other cities are billing, including Denton, they can do that. Staff can get the information
and bring it back to Council for consideration.
Discussion on simplifying the process for commercial and residential billings.
Motion was made by Councilman Garza to table this item to allow staff to get more
information. Seconded by Councilman Ervin. Motion carried unanimously.
15. Conduct Public Hearing on Ordinance #04-12-07 - Amending Regulations Regarding a
Variance to the Street Requirements in the E.T.J.
Mayor declared Public Hearing opened.
City Manager addressed the current subdivision ordinance requirement for streets which
is concrete streets, curbs and gutters. He advised that Council has been approached in the
past by several developers who had three or four lots in the ETJ and streets were more like
winding trails instead of a road.
The Council at that time, created an ordinance that allowed for a variance in a street
ordinance requirement.
Mayor declared Public Hearing closed.
16. Consider and Possible Action Regarding Ordinance #04-12-07 -Amending Regulations
Regarding a Variance to the Street Requirements in the E.T.J.
The City Manager explained that this ordinance will get the City in line with Denton
County and Lake Ray Roberts street requirements. Denton County's requirement is no
more than six lots accessing the street and no lot should be less than Denton County's one
gross acre.
Councilman Ervin inquired if this pertains to what was brought to the City Council at the
last meeting concerning the eight lots.
City Manager indicated that it was.
Councilman Ervin inquired if this is a way to get this passed and to allow them to get this
done.
City Manager indicated it is, if the City Council approves it. City Manager also indicated
that this gets the City more in line with Lake Ray Roberts and Denton County.
Councilman Garza expressed concerns that Denton County and Lake Ray Roberts will not
ever take these properties into their city limits and be forced to maintain streets. It will be
the City's responsibility at some point in time, possibly not in his lifetime, but it will
happen. If this is adopted just to allow them not to put in the streets as required by City
ordinance then later on if the property is annexed and the citizens start requesting concrete
streets then who is responsible.
City Manager continued that it will be the City's responsibility.
Lengthy discussion continued on annexing of property, farm animals on those properties,
and the grand -fathering of those properties.
Councilman Garza indicated there is a street already in the city limit that has never been
deeded to the City that is in this similar situation and is on the West part of town. It
touches Keaton and the problem has been the property owners have never deeded the
street. Councilman Garza indicated this could be a concern with these subdivisions.
Councilman Ervin moved to deny Ordinance #04-12-07 Amending Regulations Regarding
a Variance to the Street Requirements in the E.T.J. Seconded by Councilman Walker.
Motion carried unanimously.
17. Possible List of Future Agenda Items.
(a). Councilman Ervin requested that staff pull Ordinance #04-97 -Flood Damage
Prevention, for discussion on the next City Council agenda.
(b). Councilman Patton requested a discussion item to explore the possibility of an
independent auditor to review rates for January and February and up to the most
recent time.
Councilman Walker added to the request that he would like an audit of all new meters.
Mike Prater asked how many meters and Councilman Walker expressed that he was not
sure.
City Manager advised the City Council that they had a heating and air-conditioning
contractor who had called the City concerning one of these homes who had a high usage.
The home was an all electric house and had a heat pump. The reason he called the City was
that he knew the City has been under pressure to explain issues concerning high
consumption. The contractor found that the thermostat at this house was not a heat pump
thermostat. The heat pump was using three times the amount of energy instead of saving
energy to heat the house in the winter.
City Manager also indicated that City Secretary and Electric Superintendent Mike Prater
plan to isolate these residents, contact them and advise them that their thermostat could
have been installed improperly.
Councilman Ervin explained that he has worked in the meter shop for ten years at the City
oI Denton and during that time there was only one meter he found that was not working
properly and could not be adjusted. The reason for this was due to tampering of the meter.
He has not seen meters that have been out of kilter. The technology with the new meters
that the City now uses is almost tamper proof.
Councilman Walker indicated citizens have complained on unusual swing in usage.
Councilman Ervin explained how he used to conduct energy audits and how that helped
citizens isolate areas that were problems.
(c). City Manager had been notified that they have a new permit from T.C.E.Q for a new sewer
plant.

FLOOD DAMAGE PREVENTION ORDINANCE
ARTICLE I
STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION, FINDINGS OF FACT, PURPOSE AND METHODS
SECTION A. STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION
The Legislature of the State of TEXAS has in
(statutes) *SEE BELOW delegated the responsibility of local
governmental units to adopt regulations designed to minimize flood losses.
Therefore, the CITY COUNCIL of SANGER
(governing body) (community)
TEXAS does ordain as follows.
(state)
SECTION B. FINDINGS OF FACT
(1) The flood hazard areas of SANrFR are subject to
periodic inundation which results in loss of life and property, health and
safety hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental services, and
extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, all of
which adversely affect the public health, safety and general welfare.
(2) These flood loses are created by the cumulative effect of
obstructions in floodplains which cause an increase in flood heights and
velocities, and by the occupancy of flood hazards areas by uses vulnerable to
floods and hazardous to other lands because they are inadequately elevated,
floodproofed or otherwise protected from flood damage.
* VERNON'S TEXAS STATUTES WATER CODE 16,315
SECTION C. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
It is the purpose of this ordinance to promote the public health, safety and
general welfare and to minimize public and private losses due to flood
conditions in specific areas by provisions designed to.
(1) Protect human life and health;
(2) Minimize expenditure of public money for costly flood control
projects;
(3) Minimize the need for rescue and relief efforts associated with
flooding and generally undertaken at the expense of the general public;
(4) Minimize prolonged business interruptions;
(5) Minimize damage to public facilities and utilities such as water and
gas mains, electric, telephone and sewer lines, streets and bridges located in
floodplains;
(6) Help maintain a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and
development of flood -prone areas in such a manner as to minimize future flood
blight areas; and
(7) Insure that potential buyers are notified that property is in a flood
area.
SECTION D. METHODS OF REDUCING FLOOD LOSSES
In order to accomplish its purposes, this ordinance uses the following
methods:
(1) Restrict or prohibit uses that are dangerous to health, safety or
property in times of flood, or cause excessive increases in flood heights or
velocities;
(2) Require that uses vulnerable to floods, including facilities which
serve such uses, be protected against flood damage at the time of initial
construction;
(3) Control the alteration of natural floodplains, stream channels, and
natural protective barriers, which are involved in the accommodation of flood
waters;
(4) Control filling, grading, dredging and other development which may
increase flood damage;
(5) Prevent or regulate the construction of flood barriers which will
unnaturally divert flood waters or which may increase flood hazards to other
lands.

Flood insurance Program regulations.
MANUFACTURED HOME - means a structure transportable in one or more sections,
which is built on a permanent chassis and is designed for use with or without
a permanent foundation when connected to the required utilities. The term
"manufactured home" does not include a "recreational vehicle".
MANUFACTURED HOME PARK OR SUBDIVISION - means a parcel (or contiguous parcels)
of land divided into two or more manufactured home lots for rent or sale.
MEAN SEA LEVEL - means, for purposes of the National Flood Insurance Program,
the National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD) of 1929 or other datum, to which
base flood elevations shown on a community's Flood Insurance Rate Map are
referenced.
NEW CONSTRUCTION - means, for the purpose of determining insurance rates,
structures for which the "start of construction" commenced on or after the
effective date of an initial FIRM or after December 31, 1974, whichever is
later, and includes any subsequent improvements to such structures. For
floodplain management purposes, "new construction" means structures for which
the "start of construction" commenced on or after the effective date of a
floodplain management regulation adopted by a community and includes any
subsequent improvements to such structures.
NEW MANUFACTURED HOME PARK OR SUBDIVISION - means a manufactured home park or
subdivision for which the construction of facilities for servicing the lots on
which the manufactured homes are to be affixed (including at a minimum, the
installation of utilities, the construction of streets, and either final site
grading or the pouring of concrete pads) is completed on or after the
effective date of floodplain management regulations adopted by a community.
RECREATIONAL VEHICLE - means a vehicle which is (i) built on a single chassis;
(ii) 400 square feet or less when measured at the largest horizontal
projections; (iii) designed to be self-propelled or permanently towable by a
light duty truck; and (iv) designed primarily not for use as a permanent
dwelling but as temporary living quarters for recreational, camping, travel,
or seasonal use.
START OF CONSTRUCTION - (for other than new construction or substantial
improvements under the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (Pub. L. 97-348)),
includes substantial improvement and means the date the building permit was
issued, provided the actual start of construction, repair, reconstruction,
rehabilitation, addition, placement, or other improvement was within 180 days
of the permit date. The actual start means either the first placement of
permanent construction of a structure on a site, such as the pouring of slab
or footings, the installation of piles, the construction of columns, or any
work beyond the stage of excavation; or the placement of a manufactured home
on a foundation. Permanent construction does not include land preparation,
such as clearing, grading and filling; nor does it include the installation of
streets and/or walkways; nor does it include excavation for basement,
footings, piers or foundations or the erection of temporary forms; nor does it
include the installation on the property of accessory buildings, such as
garages or sheds not occupied as dwelling units or not part of the main
structure. For a substantial improvement, the actual start of construction
means the first alteration of any wall, ceiling, floor, or other structural
part of a building, whether or not that alteration affects the external
dimensions of the building.
STRUCTURE - means a walled and roofed building, including a gas or liquid
storage tank, that is principally above ground, as well as a manufactured
home.
SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE - means damage of any origin sustained by a structure
whereby the cost of restoring the structure to its before damaged condition
would equal or exceed 50 percent of the market value of the structure before
the damage occurred.
SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT - means any reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition,
or other improvement of a structure, the cost of which equals or exceeds 50
percent of the market value of the structure before "start of construction" of
the improvement. This includes structures which have incurred "substantial
damage", regardless of the actual repair work performed. The term does not,
however, include either: (1) Any project for improvement of a structure to
correct existing violations of state or local health, sanitary, or safety code
specifications which have been identified by the local code enforcement
official and which are the minimum necessary conditions or (2) Any alteration
of a "historic structure", provided that the alteration will not preclude the
structure's continued designation as a "historic structure."
VARIANCE - is a grant of relief to a person from the requirement of this
ordinance when specific enforcement would result in unnecessary hardship. A
variance, therefore, permits construction or development in a manner otherwise
prohibited by this ordinance. (For full requirements see Section 60.6 of the
National Flood Insurance Program regulations.)
VIOLATION - means the failure of a structure or other development to be fully
compliant with the community's floodplain management regulations. A structure
or other development without the elevation certificate, other certifications,
or other evidence of compliance required in Section 60.3(b)(5), (c)(4),
(c) (10) , (d) (3) , (e) (2) , (e) (4) , or (e) (5) is presumed to be in violation
until such time as that documentation is provided.
WATER SURFACE ELEVATION - means the height, in relation to the National
Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD) of 1929 (or other datum, where specified), of
floods of various magnitudes and frequencies in the floodplains of coastal or
riverine areas.

set forth in the remainder of this ordinance.
(6) Variances may be issued for new construction and substantial
improvements to be erected on a lot of one-half acre or less in size
contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures constructed
below the base flood level, providing the relevant factors in Section C(2) of
this Article have been fully considered. As the lot size increases beyond the
one-half acre, the technical justification required for issuing the variance
increases.
(7) Upon consideration of the factors noted above and the intent of this
ordinance, the Appeal Board may attach such conditions to the granting of
variances as it deems necessary to further the purpose and objectives of this
ordinance (Article 1, Section C).
(8) Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway if any
increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result.
(9) Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of historic
structures upon a determination that the proposed repair or rehabilitation
will not preclude the structure's continued designation as a historic
structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic
character and design of the structure.
(10) Prerequisites for granting variances$
a. Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the
variance is the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford
relief.
11
b. Variances shall only be issued upon, (i) showing a good and
sufficient cause] (ii)•a determination that failure to grant the variance
would result in exceptional hardship to the applicant, and (iii) a
determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased
flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public
expense, create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the public, or
conflict with existing local laws or ordinances.
C. Any application to whom a variance is granted shall be given
written notice that the structure will be permitted to be built with the
lowest floor elevation below the base flood elevation, and that the cost of
flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from
the reduced lowest floor elevation.
(11) Variances may be issued by a community for new construction and
substantial improvements and for other development necessary for the conduct
of a functionally dependent use provided that (i) the criteria outlined in
Article 4, Section D(1)-(9) are met, and (ii) the structure or other
development is protected by methods that minimize flood damages during the
base flood and create no additional threats to public safety.

ARTICLE 5
PROVISIONS FOR FLOOD HAZARD REDUCTION
SECTION A. GENERAL STANDARDS
In all areas of special flood hazards the following provisions are required
for all new construction and substantial improvements.
(1) All new construction or substantial improvements shall be designed
(or modified) and adequately anchored to prevent flotation, collapse or
Lateral movement of the structure resulting from hydrodynamic and hydrostatic
Loads, including the effects of buoyancy;
(2) All new construction or substantial improvements shall be constructed
by methods and practices that minimize flood damage;
(3) All new construction or substantial improvements shall be constructed
with materials resistant to flood damage;
(4) All new construction or substantial improvements shall be constructed
with electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning
equipment and other service facilities that are designed and/or located so as
to prevent water from entering or accumulating within the components during
conditions of flooding.
(5) All new and replacement water supply systems shall be designed to
minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the system;
(6) New and replacement sanitary sewage systems shall be designed to
minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the system and
discharge from the systems into flood waters; and,
(7) On -site waste disposal systems shall be located to avoid impairment
to them or contamination from them during flooding.
SECTION Be SPECIFIC STANDARDS
In all areas of special flood hazards where base flood elevation data has been
provided as set forth in (i) Article 3, Section B, (ii) Article 4, Section
B(8), or (iii) Article 5, Section C(3), the following provisions are required:
(1) Residential Construction - new construction and substantial
improvement of any residential structure shall have the lowest floor
(including basement), elevated to or above the base flood elevation. A
registered professional engineer, architect, or land surveyor shall submit a
certification to the Floodplain Administrator that the standard of this
subsection as proposed in Article 4, Section C(1)a., is satisfied.
(2) Nonresidential Construction - new construction and substantial
improvements of any commercial, industrial or other nonresidential structure
shall either have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated to or above
the base flood level or together with attendant utility and sanitary
facilities, be designed so that below the base flood level the structure is
watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and
with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and
hydrodynamic loads and effects of buoyancy. A registered professional
engineer or architect shall develop and/or review structural design,
specifications, and plans for the construction, and shall certify that the
design and methods of construction are in accordance with accepted standards
of practice as outlined in this subsection. A record of such certification
which includes the specific elevation (in relation to mean sea level) to which
such structures are floodproofed shall be maintained by the Floodplain
Administrator.
-� (3)- Enclosures - new construction and substantial improvements, with
fully enclosed areas below the lowest floor that are usable solely for parking
of vehicles, building access or storage in an area other than a basement and
which are subject to flooding shall be designed to automatically equalize
hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit
of floodwaters. Designs for meeting this requirement must either be certified
by a registered professional engineer or architect or meet or exceed the
following minimum criteria:
a. A minimum of two openings having a total net area of not less
than one square inch for every square foot of enclosed area subject to
flooding shall be provided.
b. The bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one foot above
grade.
c. Openings may be equipped with screens, louvers, valves, or other
coverings or devices provided that they permit the automatic entry and exit of
floodwaters.
(4) Manufactured Homes -
a. Require that all manufactured homes to be placed within Zone A on a
community's FHBM or FIRM shall be installed using methods and practices which
minimize flood damage. For the purposes of this requirement, manufactured
homes must be elevated and anchored to resist flotation, collapse, or lateral
movement. Methods of anchoring may include, but are not limited to, use of
over -the -top or frame ties to ground anchors. This requirement is in addition
to applicable State and local anchoring requirements for resisting wind
forces.
b. Require that manufactured homes that are placed or substantially
improved within Zones Al-30, AH, and AE on the community's FIRM on sites (i)
outside of a manufactured home park or subdivision, (ii) in a new manufactured
home park or subdivision, (iii) in an expansion to an existing manufactured
home park or subdivision, or (iv) in an existing manufactured home park or
subdivision on which a manufactured home has incurred "substantial damage" as
a result of a flood, be elevated on a permanent foundation such that the
lowest floor of the manufactured home is elevated to or above the base flood
elevation and be securely anchored to an adequately anchored foundation system
to resist flotation, collapse, and lateral movement.
c. Require that manufactured homes be placed or substantially improved on
sites in an existing manufactured home park or subdivision with Zones Al-30,
AH and AE on the community's FIRM that are not subject to the provisions of
paragraph (4) of this section be elevated so that either:
(i) the lowest floor of the manufactured home is at or above the
base flood elevation, or
(ii) the manufactured home chassis is supported by
or other foundation elements of at least equivalent strength
than 36 inches in height above grade and be securely anchored
anchored foundation system to resist flotation, collapse, and
movement.
reinforced piers
that are no less
to an adequately
lateral
14
(5) Recreational Vehicles - Require that recreational vehicles placed on
sites within Zones Al-30, AH, and AE on the community's FIRM either (i) be on
the site for fewer than 180 consecutive days, (ii) be fully licensed and ready
for highway use, or (iii) meet the permit requirements of Article 4, Section
C(1), and the elevation and anchoring requirements for "manufactured homes" in
paragraph (4) of this section. A recreational vehicle is ready for highway
use if it is on its wheels or jacking system, is attached to the site only by
quick disconnect type utilities and security devices, and has no permanently
attached additions.
SECTION C. STANDARDS FOR SUBDIVISION PROPOSALS
(1) All subdivision proposals including the placement of manufactured
home parks and subdivisions shall be consistent with Article 1, Sections B, C,
and D of this ordinance.
(2) All proposals for the development of subdivisions including the
placement of manufactured home parks and subdivisions shall meet Development
Permit requirements of Article 3, Section C; Article 4, Section C; and the
provisions of Article 5 of this ordinance.
{3) Base flood elevation data shall be generated for subdivision
proposals and other proposed development including the placement of
manufactured home parks and subdivisions which is greater than 50 lots or 5
acres, whichever is lesser, if not otherwise provided pursuant to Article 3,
Section B or Article 4, Section B (8) of this ordinance.
(4) All subdivision proposals including the placement of manufactured
home parks and subdivisions shall have adequate drainage provided to reduce
exposure to flood hazards.
(5) All subdivision proposals including the placement of manufactured
home parks and subdivisions shall have public utilities and facilities such as
sewer, gas, electrical and water systems located and constructed to minimize
or eliminate flood damage.
SECTION D. STANDARDS FOR AREAS OF SHALLOW FLOODING (AO/AH ZONES)
Located within the areas of special flood hazard established in Article 3,
Section B, are areas designated as shallow flooding. These areas have special
flood hazards associated with base flood depths of 1 to 3 feet where a clearly
defined channel does not exist and where the path of flooding is unpredictable
and where velocity flow may be evident. Such flooding is characterized by
ponding or sheet flow; therefore, the following provisions apply:
(1) All new construction and substantial improvements of residential
structures have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated above the
highest adjacent grade at least as high as the depth number specified in feet
on the community's FIRM (at least two feet if no depth number is specified).
(2) All new construction and substantial improvements of non-residential
structures;
(i) have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated above the
highest adjacent grade at least as high as the depth number specified in feet
on the community's FIRM (at least two feet if no depth number is specified),
or;
(ii) together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities be
designed so that below the base flood level the structure is watertight with
walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural
components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic
loads of effects of buoyancy.
15
(3) A registered professional engineer or architect shall submit a
- certification to the Floodplain Administrator that the standards of this
Section, as proposed in Article 4, Section C (1)a., are satisfied.
(4) Require within Zones AH or AO adequate drainage paths around
structures on slopes, to guide flood waters around and away from proposed
structures.
SECTION E. FLOODWAYS
Floodways - located within areas of special flood hazard established in
Article 3, Section B, are areas designated as floodways. Since the floodway
is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of flood waters which carry
debris, potential projectiles and erosion potential, the following provisions
shall apply:
(1) Encroachments are prohibited, including fill, new construction,
substantial improvements and other development within the adopted regulatory
floodway unless it has been demonstrated through hydrologic and hydraulic
analyses performed in accordance with standard engineering practice that the
proposed encroachment would not result in any increase in flood levels within
the community during the occurrence of the base flood discharge.
(2) If Article 5, Section E (1) above is satisfied, all new construction
and substantial improvements shall comply with all applicable flood hazard
reduction provisions of Article 5.
(3) Under the provisions of 44 CFR Chapter 1, Section 65.12, of the
National Flood Insurance Regulations, a community may permit encroachments
within the adopted regulatory floodway that would result in an increase in
base flood elevations, provided that the community first applies for a
conditional FIRM and floodway revision through FEMA.
CERTIFICATION

RE: Ordinance OQ-O8-07
Dear Rose:
RpgERT L, DILLANU, JR. (1813.2000)
H, LOUIS WCHOLS
LAWRENCE W JACKSON
OF COUNSEL
You have asked me to review and comment furthex ou. this ordinance, particularly in light
of the City C.ouncil's discussion about it at a recent meeting, You have furnished me the minutes
of that meeting for review.
I originally wrote this ordinance in November, amended it in 17ecember and recently
signed and sent an original of it to the City Manager,
Since T understood the City's desixe to be able tq regulate so-called "beer barttts", this
ordinance attempts to define them by adding a definition of "quick service food and beverage
shop" to the zoning ordinance and by specifying that it is a permitted use only by a special use
permit in the 13-1, B-2, B-3,1-1 and I-2 Districts. This would give the City Council a measure of
control over this type of business. A side effect of that is that it will also apply to other types of
businesses that offer food or beverage service through an automobile pick-up window or a walk-
up window, with or without eating space provided within the building. In other words, it would
apply to a grocery or market with a drive -through window, a fast food restaurant with a drive -
through or walk-up window, and similar uses.
This change would not apply retroactively, so any existing business in the City would not
be affected at all by it. It wi1I only apply prospectively, that is, only to new businesses
established after the passage of the ordinance.
I know that there has been a lot of discussion by the City Council and the Planning and
Zoning Commission about filrtlaer regulation of the so-called "beer barns" and otlxer forms of
alcoholic beverage sales in the City.
15R07
APR 13 2007 17:04 FR 2149650010
An impediment to the City regulating the sale of alcoholic beverages through a store such
as a beer barn is that the City is bound by the provisions of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code,
which limits that ability. In particular, in this type case, the City is not authorized to pass any
zoning or other regulation that treats a premise differently because it has a permit to sell
alcoholic beverages. In other words, the ordinance cannot single out and prohibit a "beer barn"
but must treat that type establishment in basically the same way it treats a McDonald's drive -
through or a convenience store drivemathrouvii which offers food or beverage service through an
automobile pick-up window or a walk-up window,
Section 1.Q6 of the Alcoholic Beverage Code states: "Unless otherwise specifically
provided by the terms of this Code, the manufacture, sale distribution, transportation, and
possession of alcoholic beverages shall be governed exclusively .by the provisions of this Code."
So, the City of Sanger, even though it is a Home Rule City, must look to the Alcoholic Beverage
Code for specific authority to regulate the sale of alcoholic beverages in any way. I have
reviewed the Alcoholic Beverage Code, and there is no provision authorizing the City of Sanger
to treat a "beer barn" differently by applying a different zoning standard to it than it does to any
other type of drive -through or drivewup business with, a pick-up window or walk-up window.
In fact, the Alcoholic Beverage Code specifically prohibits the City from doing so.
Section 109.57(a) provides in part: ... a regulation, charter, or ordinance promulgated by -a
governmental entity of this state may not impose stricter standards on premises or businesses
required to have a license or permit under this Code than are imposed on similar premises or
businesses that are not required to have such a license or permit." Then, subsection (b) states:
"It is the intent of the Legislature that this Code shall exclusively govern the regulation of
alcoholic beverages in this state, and that except as permitted by this Code, a governmental entity
of this state may not discriminate against a business holding a license or permit under this Code."
I hope this answers your questions with regard to the application of the Alcoholic
Beverage Code in this situation.
As to this specific ordinance, the concept was origizl.ally to create a category that would
include the so-called "beer barn" as well as other establishments offering food or beverage
service in a similar way. This was the reason for Section 1 to define "quick service food and
beverage shop". Then, Section 3 was intended to remove this type use from being a permitted
use by night in the listed districts, but instead allowing it only by approval of a special use permit.
In this way, the City Council has the ultimate control over whether and where and under what
conditions a quick service food and beverage shop will be allowed in the City of Sanger,
including beer barns. Then, if application is made for a beer barn wider this category, it will go
through the usual zoning processes, including notices and public hearings, and the Council can
decide if it wants to allow it by granting a special use permit for it. If not, and the Council
decides there are reasons why the special use permit should not be granted, it will have the right
to deny it. Jt will have that same right as to other types of businesses that don't sell alcoholic
beverages. It may very well be that in these districts, there will be a number of locations where
you do not want this type of business, whether it sells alcoholic beverages or not.

I hope this explains adequately the legalities and reasoning behind this ordinance. I know
it is a difficult subject for you to deal with, both from a legal and from a public perception view
point. Please ask the Council to advise me of any other questions it may have. I£ necessary, Y

RE: Opinion re: Annexation of Property Used for Farming
Dear Mr. Smith:
ROBER I L. OILLARD, JR. (1913-2000)
H. LOUIS NICHOLS
LAWRENCE W.JACKSON
OF COUNSEL
You have asked for a written legal -opinion with regard to the status of property
being used to raise sheep in proximity to residential structures:
You have advised me that property which has been used to raise sheep for many
years was annexed into the City about three years ago.
Under the Zoning Ordinance, a farm is defined as:
"An area of five acres or more which is used for the ...raising thereon of
the usual farm poultry and farm animals such as horses, cattle, sheep, and
emus including the necessary accessory uses for raising, treating and
storing products on the premises ..."
Based on information I have received that the property is in excess of five acres, I
will assume that it falls under the definition of a farm. As such, it is a permitted use in
any district according to the use tables contained in Section 30.2 of the Zoning
Ordinance. Therefore, this use is not a non -conforming use and the provisions of the
Zoning Ordinance with regard to non -conforming uses do not apply to this property.
Article 2.1400 of the Code of Ordinances, however, provides standards for the
keeping of farm livestock. In particular, Section 2.1402(c) regulates the keeping of sheep
by stating as follows:
"The keeping of sheep is prohibited on all zoning districts except where
the: requirements of a farm are met and fW1 er;'that the pen, corral, fences
or similar enclosures are "not closer than fifteen feet to any adjacent
15722

property line and one hundred feet to any building or structure used for
sleeping, dining or living, other than the living quarters of the owner or
keeper, excluding fencing of pasture or grazing land, and shall be kept in a
sanitary condition and shall also be kept in such a manner as will be
reasonably calculated not to become offensive to adjacent neighbors or to
the public."
Violation of this section carries a potential line not to exceed the sum of
$2,000.00 for each offense.
This type of police regulation is for protection of the public health, safety and
general. welfare. It applies to all property in the City equally. There is no non-
conforming right to maintain a nuisance or to violate any such public health or safety
regulation contained in the Code of Ordinances.
The Home Rule Charter, Section 1.02C, provides that upon annexation of an area,
"the inhabitants thereof shall be entitled to all the rights and privileges of all citizens and
shall be bound by the laws, ordinances, and resolutions of the City."
Therefore, when the property in question was annexed into the City Limits, it was
bound to follow the regulations of Chapter 2 of the Code of Ordinances, in this case,
particularly with regard to the keeping of sheep. Most cities that I have represented
would normally give a property owner in this situation some time to comply with such a
regulation because of the expense and time to comply. In this case, the property has been
in the City and subject to this regulation for three years.
I hope this answers your questions with regard to this situation. Should you have
any further questions, please let me know.

Crochet
Class at the
Library on
Saturday
Do you remember starched, cro-
cheted tablecloths or doilies in your
grandmother's or great-
grandmother's dining room? Or
maybe you or your child had a cro-
cheted baby blanket or cap. You might
want to create something similar for
yourself or a family member, or even
make a cozy purple and gold scarf or
afghan for those chilly football nights.
tf so, Sanger Public Library might
have the solution for you.
Saturday, March 10, at 3 p.m., the
Library will host a free Crochet Ba-
sics and Beyond class. All skill lev-
els and ages who are interested are
welcome, from complete novices to
�eaperts who are willing to share theg
knowledge with beginners, and in-
betweeners who want to learn a new
stitch or two. The variety of skill lev-
els will allow more one-on-one dem-
onstration for the true beginners. If
the class proves popular, the Library
plans to make it a twice a month event.
No one really knows when or
where crochet, or pulling one loop of
thread through another to create a fab-
ric, began. It seems to have first be-
come popular as a less costly form of
lace. The skills and techniques were
then used on blankets and clothes, and
doilies and afghans, and just about
any item requiring the use of a fabric.
Local resident Beverly Gainey
will lead the class, with. assistance
from other experienced crocheters.
She learned in high school, and has
been crocheting for over 30 years.
While she has made doilies, large
blankets, and even sweaters for her
grandsons, she prefers afghans and
other items composed of granny
squares. "The granny square is my
favorite. It is so much easier to do a
small piece and then later do another
small piece", she says. "When a large
afghan or blanket is just one big piece,
it is so easy to lose stitches when you
have to stop and then start again later.
If that happens you might have to pull
out yam and redo parts of the piece."
If you have crochet hooks, or
yarn, or a project in progress, or even
one you want to begin, please bring
them. Finished projects are especially
welcome, to admire and inspire. Some
extra hooks and yarn will be available
for in -class use, as well as assorted
crochet books for reference. Also
available will be handouts illustrating
how to make certain basic stitches and
granny squares.
For more information or to make
a reservation for Saturday, March 10
at 3 p.m., or even to request more cro-
chet or other classes, phone Lynne
Smiland at the Sanger Public Library,

Scrapbooking workshop on
March 31 at Sanger Public, Library
For paper based and digital methods
Many of us have drawers or even boxes full of photographs, often un-
sorted and jumbled together, thinking it day we will do somethingwith
them. Or, some of us might think we will never forget who came to Grandma's
for Christmas that year or all the experiences on a long anticipated vacation:'
Sanger Public Library can help you get started organizing your photos,
by hosting two free workshops on making scrapbooks on Saturday, March
31, 2007. Session 1 will be from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, and is designed for
beginners, with little or no experience or knowledge. Participants will team
the basics of getting started, 7 steps to make a page, and will complete a
simple page. Please bring photographs, scissors and glue sticks, and other
supplies will be provided.
Session 2, for those who participated in Session 1 or who have some
experience and knowledge, will be held from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Participants
will learn how to use sketches, try various tools, experiment with techniques,
and discuss design. Besides photographs, scissors and glue stick, bringing
any papers or tools owned would be helpful.
Digital Scrapbooking has also become very popular. There is less ex-
pense doing everything online, supplies don't need storage space, paper cop-
ies can be printed out in multiples, and being online makes it easy to access
for friends and relatives no matter where they are.
Sanger resident Leigh Compton will be leading the workshops at the
library. She has been Scrapbooking for 10 years, and enjoys both paper -based
and digital methods. Leigh has found scrapbooking to be the perfect creative
outlet because it combines her passion for photography with her desire to
leave a meaningful legacy for her children. Her most recent scrapbooks have
been gifts for family members, featuring photos of events such as weddings
and new babies.
For more information or to make reservations call Lynne Smiland at the
library, 45&3257 or visit us at 501 Bolivar.
