COUNTY ENGINEER, CITY O F ROCIG'ORT
The Stormwater Management Advisory Committee (SWh4AC) met on March 24, 2011 for the
purpose of identifjing, prioritizing and recommending an ordered list of projects that the County should
adopt as their Capital Improvement Project (CIP) plan. The SWMAC recommends that process for
undertaking these projects should b e p at the earliest opportunity. The methodology for prioritizing
these projects began with a list of reconmended projects from Naisrnith Enpeering, Inc., review of said
list by County staff, preliminary ranking from the Technical committee and final ranking by the SW/ThWC.
Criteria used in prioritizing the projects gave flooding issues a greater weight, but also considered
environmental and ecological issues. An estimated cost of construction and land acquisition for each
project is included. However, The basis of these estimates is a conceptual in nature and actual cost wdl
vary. The prioritized list of projects the S\X%fAC recommends is as follows:

Proposal froin Teclmical committee on procedure to evaluate and impleineill improved
dl-ainageor preservation of drainage in a flood drain area (Bluc Corridor) in CIP projects
Principles
1. preserve or restore ec.ologic-a1integrity and natural drainage from u p l a ~ ~ dtos the
bays in a pa~ticulardrainage COI-ridor
2. Retain first flush(smaI1 rainfalls) up to 2yea.r level events with minimal runoff tto
recharge groundwater and remove pollutants (maximize infi Itration)
3. encourage natural sheet flo\v of excess runoff rather than channelization with
rapid runoff o f all s t o m events
Sequence
-- -1-:- - - B e k e ~ l l r nor
a jnatural-drainage-conidors~littrengineering~-tooi~-at3,~~0;2-5;-and 100 y ~flood
.
l e ~ ~ e(done)
ls
2. Define five (5) highest priority drainage basins or coiridors thal nee-d immediate
atleption based 011 documei~tedprior flooding problems or poten~ialfor future
extensive infrastructure damage. (should be approved by M a c h 30.)
3. Evaluate the CIP recommendations from NEI (prinlarjly trenching, cul veils,
outfalls) along propee- line e.asements or across roadways in the "Bl u c
Con-idors"
4. Develop a partial list o f possible lesser expensive or better possible alternate
solutions within context of above Principles
5. I-iave public meeting of persons living in the respective flood plain or sheet flow
corridors with SWMAC, Tech committee, NEI, and County Enginceer to:
a educate stakeholders about their presence in a "Blue Corridor"
b. explain ways county can help individual stakeholder propert~lowners 10
achieve best solution for themselves and all their neighbors, up and down
the watershed'by utilizing the corridors
c . get landowner c-ooperation
d. get landowner/ stakeholder input into developing desired solutions
6. Expandievaluate suggested alternatives, if they evolve, with analysis of cost and
impacts within $e watershed
7- Tech. Comn:ittee evaluation of recommended alternatives: if any
8. Conduct second public meeting for stakeholders, landowners for input on
proposed recommendations after some individual negotiations
9. Forward revised fina1 SWMAC recommendation to commissioner's court for
approval and hnding of action plan..
10. Implement recommended projects for thearea
Move to n e x t 5 projects using the priority rankings using above as models, etc.
Action Plans would include needed imnprovements, cost estimates, defmed drainage
easements, flood plain preservation or conservation easements, and requirements for
building or alterations in the flood plain. County could trade work or other
considerations for obtaining needed restrictions or easements outside the usual draillage
easement (or, if no routine maintenance is needed with the restrictio~~s
in place, a
dedicated maintenance easement inay not be needed in some cases.)

General Provisions
1.1.
Findings of Fact
It is hereby determined that:
Land development projects and associated increases in impervious cover alter the hydrologic
response of local watersheds and increase stormwater runoff rates and volumes, flooding, stream
channel erosion, and sediment transport and deposition;
This stormwater runoff contributes to increased quantities of water-borne pollutants, and
stormwater runoff, soil erosion and nonpoint source pollution, can be controlled and minimized
through the regulation of stormwater runoff from development sites.
Therefore, the City of Rockport establishes this set of water quality and quantity policies
applicable to all surface waters to provide reasonable guidance for the regulation of stormwater
runoff for the purpose of protecting local water resources from degradation. It is determined that
the regulation of stormwater runoff discharges from land development projects and other
construction activities in order to control and minimize increases in stormwater runoff rates and
volumes, soil erosion, stream channel erosion, and nonpoint source pollution associated with
stormwater runoff is in the public interest and will prevent threats to public health and safety.
1
1.2. Purpose
The purpose of this ordinance is to establish minimum stormwater management requirements
and controls to protect and safeguard the general health, safety, and welfare of the public
residing in watersheds within this jurisdiction. This ordinance seeks to meet that purpose through
the following objectives:
(1)
minimize increases in stormwater runoff from any land disturbance activity in order to
reduce flooding, siltation, increases in stream temperature, and streambank erosion and
maintain the integrity of stream channels;
(2)
minimize increases in nonpoint source pollution caused by stormwater runoff from land
disturbance activity which would otherwise degrade local water quality
(3)
reduce stormwater runoff rates and volumes, soil erosion and nonpoint source pollution,
whenever possible, through stormwater management controls and to ensure that these
management controls are properly maintained and pose no threat to public safety.
1.3. Applicability
This ordinance shall be applicable to all land disturbance activities, unless eligible for an
exemption or granted a waiver by the City of Rockport under the specifications of Section 4 of
this ordinance.
To prevent the adverse impacts of stormwater runoff, the City of Rockport has developed a set
of performance standards that must be met when land disturbance activities are proposed. These
standards apply to any construction activity disturbing 1,500 or more square feet of land. The
following activities are exempt from these stormwater performance criteria:
(1)
Developments that do not disturb more than 1,500 square feet of land, provided they are
not a part of a larger common development plan;
(2)
Repairs to any stormwater treatment practice deemed necessary by the City of Rockport.
1.4.
Compatibility with Other Permit and Ordinance Requirements
This ordinance is not intended to interfere with abrogate, or annul any other ordinance, rule or
regulation, stature, or other provision of law. The requirements of this ordinance should be
considered minimum requirements, and where any provision of this ordinance imposes
restrictions different from those imposed by any other ordinance, rule or regulation, or other
provision of law, whichever provisions are more restrictive or impose higher protective standards
for human health or the environment shall be considered to take precedence.
1.5.
Severability
If the provisions of any article, section, subsection, paragraph, subdivision or clause of this
ordinance shall be judged invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such order of judgment
shall not affect or invalidate the remainder of any article, section, subsection, paragraph,
subdivision or clause of this ordinance.
2
1.6.
Development of a Stormwater Design Manual
The City of Rockport will furnish additional policy, criteria and information including
specifications and standards, for the proper implementation of the requirements of this ordinance
and shall provide such information in the form of a Stormwater Design Manual.
This manual will include a list of acceptable stormwater treatment practices, including the
specific design criteria and operation and maintenance requirements for each stormwater
practice.

City of Rockport notifies the permit holder that all stormwater management practices have
passed the final inspection required under permit condition.
Section 4.
Waivers to Stormwater Management Requirements
4.1.
Waivers for Providing Stormwater Management
Every applicant shall provide a stormwater management plan as required by this ordinance,
unless a written request is filed to waive this requirement. Requests to waive the stormwater
management plan requirements shall be submitted to the City of Rockport for approval.
The minimum requirements for stormwater management may be waived in whole or in part upon
written request of the applicant, provided that at least one of the following conditions applies:
(1)
It can be demonstrated that the proposed development is not likely to impair attainment
of the objectives of this ordinance.
(2)
Alternative minimum requirements for on-site management of stormwater discharges
have been established in a stormwater management plan that has been approved by the
City of Rockport and the implementation of the plan is required by local ordinance.
(3)
The City of Rockport finds that meeting the minimum on-site management requirements
is not feasible due to the natural or existing physical characteristics of a site and
provisions are made to manage stormwater by an off-site facility. The off-site facility is
required to be in place, to be designed and adequately sized to provide a level of
stormwater control that is equal to or greater than that which would be afforded by onsite practices and there is a legally obligated entity responsible for long-term operation
and maintenance of the stormwater practice.
(4)
Non-structural practices will be used on the site that reduces: a) the generation of
stormwater from the site, b) the size and cost of stormwater storage and c) the pollutants
generated at the site. These non-structural practices are explained in detail in the current
design manual and the amount of credit available for using such practices shall be
determined by the City of Rockport.
4.2 Downstream Impacts
In instances where one of the conditions above applies, the City of Rockport may grant a waiver
from strict compliance with these stormwater management provisions, as long as acceptable
mitigation measures are provided. However, to be eligible for a variance, the applicant must
demonstrate to the satisfaction of the City of Rockport that the variance will not result in the
following impacts to downstream waterways:
(1)
Deterioration of existing culverts, bridges, and other structures;
(2)
or degradation of biological functions or habitat;
(3)
or accelerated streambank or streambed erosion or siltation;
(4)
or increased threat of flood damage to public health, life, or property.
6
4.3 Mitigation Measures
Furthermore, where compliance with minimum requirements for stormwater management is
waived, the applicant will satisfy the minimum requirements by meeting one of the mitigation
measures selected by the City of Rockport. Mitigation measures may include, but are not
limited to, the following:
(1)
The purchase and donation of privately owned lands, or the grant of an easement to be
dedicated for preservation and/or reforestation. These lands should be located adjacent to
the stream corridor in order to provide permanent buffer areas to protect water quality
and aquatic habitat,
(2)
The creation of a stormwater management facility or other drainage improvements on
previously developed properties, public or private, that currently lack stormwater
management facilities designed and constructed in accordance with the purposes and
standards of this ordinance,
(3)
Monetary contributions (Fee-in-Lieu) to fund stormwater management activities such as
research and studies (e.g., regional wetland delineation studies, stream monitoring studies
for water quality and macroinvertebrates, stream flow monitoring, threatened and
endangered species studies, hydrologic studies) and monitoring of stormwater
management practices.
4.4.
Fee in Lieu of Stormwater Management Practices.
Where the City of Rockport waives all or part of the minimum stormwater management
requirements, or where the waiver is based on the provision of adequate stormwater facilities
provided downstream of the proposed development, the applicant shall be required to pay a
stormwater capital impact fee in an amount as determined by the City of Rockport. When an
applicant obtains a waiver of the required stormwater management, the monetary contribution
required shall be in accordance with a fee schedule (unless the developer and the City of
Rockport agree on a greater alternate contribution) established by the City of Rockport, and
based on the cubic feet of storage required for stormwater management of the development in
question. All of the monetary contributions shall be credited to an appropriate capital
improvements program project, and shall be made by the developer prior to the issuance of any
building permit for the development.
4.5.
Dedication of land
In lieu of a monetary contribution, an applicant may obtain a waiver of the required stormwater
management by entering into an agreement with the City of Rockport for granting of an
easement or the dedication of land by the applicant, to be used for the construction of an off-site
stormwater management facility. The agreement shall be entered into by the applicant and the
City of Rockport prior to the recording of plats or, if no record plat is required, prior to the
issuance of the building permit. The dedication of an easement or land under this provision shall
be in addition to that required to meet other dedications authorized under the platting ordinance.
7
Section .5
General Performance Criteria for Stormwater Management
Unless judged by the City of Rockport to be exempt or granted a waiver, the following
performance criteria shall be addressed for stormwater management at all sites:
(A).
All site designs shall establish stormwater management practices to control the peak flow
rates of stormwater discharge that exceed a weighted C value of .30 associated with
specified design storms. These practices should seek to utilize pervious areas for
stormwater treatment and to infiltrate stormwater runoff from driveways, sidewalks,
rooftops, parking lots, and landscaped areas to the maximum extent practical to provide
treatment for both water quality and quantity.
Section 6.
6.1.
Requirements for Stormwater Management Concept Plans
Stormwater Management Concept Plans can be prepared by a professional or a qualified
non-professional.
6.2.
Stormwater Management Concept Plan Requirements
A stormwater management concept plan shall be required with all permit applications and will
include sufficient information to evaluate the characteristics of the project site, the potential
impacts of all proposed development of the site on the water resources, and the effectiveness and
acceptability of the measures proposed for managing stormwater generated at the project site.
The intent of this conceptual planning process is to determine the type of stormwater
management measures necessary for the proposed project. To accomplish this goal the following
information shall be included in the concept plan:
(1)
A map (or maps) indicating the location of existing and proposed buildings, parking
areas, proposed structural stormwater management and sediment control facilities
(2)
Sufficient analysis to show that the proposed stormwater management measures are
capable of controlling runoff from the site in compliance with this ordinance and the
specifications of the Stormwater Design Manual.
(3)
A written description of the required maintenance burden for any proposed stormwater
management facility.
Section 7.
Requirements for Stormwater Management Plans
7.1.
Site Design Feasibility
Stormwater management practices for a site shall be chosen based on the physical conditions of
the site. Among the factors that should be considered:
(1)
Topography
(2)
Maximum Drainage Area
(3)
Depth to Water Table
(4)
Soils
8
(5)
(6)
(7)
(8)
Slopes
Terrain
Hydraulic Head
Location in relation to environmentally sensitive features
Applicants shall consult the Stormwater Design Manual for guidance on the factors that
determine site design feasibility when selecting a stormwater management practice.
7.2.
Conveyance Issues
All stormwater management practices shall be to the greatest extent practical designed to convey
stormwater to allow for the removal of pollutants and reduction in flow velocities. This shall
include, but not be limited to:
(1)
Maximizing of flow paths from inflow points to outflow points
(2)
Protection of inlet and outfall structures
(3)
Elimination of erosive flow velocities
(4)
Providing of under drain systems, where applicable
The Stormwater Design Manual shall provide detailed guidance on the requirements for
conveyance for each of the approved stormwater management practices.
7.3.
Maintenance Agreements
All structural stormwater practices shall have an enforceable operation and maintenance
agreement to ensure the system functions as designed. This agreement will include any and all
maintenance easements required to access and inspect the stormwater treatment practices, and to
perform routine maintenance as necessary to ensure proper functioning of the stormwater
treatment practice. The form of the agreement will be subject to the City of Rockport approval.
7.4.
Non-Structural Stormwater Practices
The use of non-structural stormwater treatment practices is encouraged in order to minimize the
reliance on structural practices. Credit in the form of reductions in the amount of stormwater
that must be managed can be earned through the use of non-structural practices that reduce the
generation of stormwater from the site. These non-structural practices are explained in detail in
the design manual and applicants wishing to obtain credit for use of non-structural practices must
ensure that these practices are documented and remain unaltered by subsequent property owners.
7.5.
Stormwater Management Plan Application Requirements
If a Stormwater Management Plan is required under section 3.3.2 of this ordinance it must be
prepared by a professional and it shall include the information provided in the stormwater
management concept plan as well as the following additional information.
(1)
A map (or maps) indicating the location of existing and proposed buildings, roads,
parking areas, utilities, existing and proposed structural stormwater management and
sediment control facilities. The map(s) will also clearly show proposed land use with

tabulation of the percentage of surface area to be adapted to various uses; drainage
patterns; locations of utilities, roads and easements; the limits of clearing and grading;
Sufficient engineering analysis to show that the proposed stormwater management
measures are capable of controlling runoff from the site in compliance with this
ordinance and the specifications of the Stormwater Design Manual.
A written or graphic inventory of the natural resources at the site and surrounding area as
it exists prior to the commencement of the project and a description of the watershed and
its relation to the project site. This description should include a discussion of soil
conditions, ground cover, topography, wetlands, and other native vegetative areas on the
site. Particular attention should be paid to environmentally sensitive features that provide
particular opportunities or constraints for development.
A written description of the required maintenance burden for any proposed stormwater
management facility.
Contact Information: The name, address, and telephone number of all persons having a
legal interest in the property and the tax reference number and parcel number of the
property or properties affected.
Topographic Base Map: A 1" = 200' topographic base map of the site which extends a
minimum of 50 feet beyond the limits of the proposed development and indicates existing
surface water drainage including streams, ponds, culverts, ditches, and wetlands; current
land use including all existing structures; locations of utilities, roads, and easements; and
significant natural and manmade features not otherwise shown.
Calculations: Hydrologic and hydraulic design calculations for the pre-development and
post-development conditions for the design storms specified in this ordinance.
Soils Information: If a stormwater management control measure depends on the
hydrologic properties of soils (e.g., infiltration basins), then sufficient soils data shall be
submitted to determine the soils ability to meet the design.
Maintenance and Repair Plan: Structural stormwater management facilities shall include
detailed maintenance and repair procedures to ensure their continued function. These
plans will identify the parts or components of a stormwater management facility that need
to be maintained and the equipment and skills or training necessary. Provisions for the
periodic review and evaluation of the effectiveness of the maintenance program and the
need for revisions or additional maintenance procedures shall be included in the plan.
Vegetation plan: The applicant must present a detailed plan for management of
vegetation at the site after construction is finished, including who will be responsible for
the maintenance of vegetation at the site and what practices will be employed to ensure
that adequate vegetative cover is preserved.
Maintenance Easements: The applicant must ensure access to all stormwater treatment
practices at the site for the purpose of inspection and repair by securing all the
maintenance easements needed on a permanent basis. If the City of Rockport deems
necessary permanent easements will be recorded with the plan and will remain in effect
even with transfer of title to the property.
Maintenance Agreement: The applicant must execute an easement and an inspection and
maintenance agreement binding on all subsequent owners of land served by an on-site
structural stormwater management measure.
10
7.6.
Performance Bond/Security
The City of Rockport may, at its discretion, require the submittal of a performance security or
bond prior to issuance of a permit in order to insure that the stormwater practices are installed by
the permit holder as required by the approved stormwater management plan. The amount of the
installation performance security shall be the total estimated construction cost of the stormwater
management practices approved under the permit. Provisions for a partial pro-rata release of the
performance security based on the completion of various development stages can be done at the
discretion of the City of Rockport.
Section 8.
Construction Inspection
8.1.
Notice of Construction Commencement
The applicant must notify the City of Rockport in advance before the commencement of
construction. Regular inspections of the stormwater management system construction shall be
conducted by the staff of the City of Rockport or their designee. All inspections shall be
documented and written reports prepared that contain the following information:
(1)
The date and location of the inspection;
(2)
Whether construction is in compliance with the approved stormwater management plan
(3)
Variations from the approved construction specifications
(4)
Any violations that exist
If any violations are found, the property owner shall be notified in writing of the nature of the
violation and the required corrective actions. No added work shall proceed until any violations
are corrected and all work previously completed has received approval by the City of Rockport.
8.2.
As Built Plans
“As built” plans are required for all structural stormwater management facilities depicted in the
approved stormwater management plans. The plan must show the final design specifications for
all stormwater management facilities.
8.3.
Vegetation and Stabilization Requirements
Any area of land from which the natural vegetative cover has been either partially or wholly
cleared or removed by development activities shall be revegetated within ten (10) days from the
substantial completion of final construction or grading. This provision does not relieve the
applicant of temporary measures required under the TCEQ SWPPP program. The following
criteria shall apply to revegetation efforts:
Any area of revegetation must exhibit survival of a minimum of seventy-five percent
(75%) of the cover crop throughout the year immediately following revegetation.
Revegetation must be repeated in successive years until the minimum seventy-five
percent (75%) survival for one (1) year is achieved.

“stop work order” will be in effect until the City of Rockport confirms that the development
activity is in compliance and the violation has been satisfactorily addressed. Failure to address a
notice of violation in a timely manner can result in civil, criminal, or monetary penalties in
accordance with the enforcement measures authorized in this ordinance.
9.4.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
Special Workshop Meeting: Tuesday, April 12, 2011
AGENDA ITEM “C”
Presentation and general discussion on proposal by Allied Waste Services to amend the current
contract agreement for the transition from manual collection to automated waste and recycling
collection services within the City’s service area.
SUBMITTED BY: City Manager Thomas J. Blazek
APPROVED FOR AGENDA: TJB (8)
SUMMARY: Allied Waste Services is proposing a once a week automated trash collection
service with 95 gallon trash containers “totters” and continue once a week recycling also
automated with a 95 gallon totter. See attached letter.
BACKGROUND: The current contract with Allied Waste Services was entered into in July
2007 for a period of five years and would expire in July 2012.
FISCAL ANALYSIS: The per-household cost would be reduced (see letter) due to the
elimination of one trash pickup each week and the current pickups require three people where the
automated truck is operated by one. Per Allied Waste Services’ letter, if City Council approved
this change in services, a new five year contract from the date of acceptance would be required.

Dear Mayor, City Staff, and City Council,
As you know, the management of solid waste is one of the most important issues facing
municipal officials. Everyday local officials and service providers are seeing new
challenges. The cost of equipment, labor and operations continues to increase over the
years. Additionally, disposal rates continue to increase and transfer stations play a more
important role in the successful management of solid waste.
Republic Services, the parent company for Allied Waste is uniquely positioned to assist
you with effective recycling and waste collection services. We have extensive expertise in
waste collection, recycling services, transfer, and disposal. Our company commitment is to
increase the waste diversion by capturing more recyclables from our municipal residences
to benefit the community and the environment.
Over the past several years, Republic has been transitioning more and more manual
collection routes to automated waste and recycling collection services.
Automation of waste collection services is a proven technological advancement. Just last
year, Republic Services successfully converted more than 400 routes in 130 communities to
automated waste collection service.
There are many benefits associated with automation of the waste collection process. For
starters, and perhaps most important to you, is the upgrade of service for your citizens.
Fixed lid, wheeled carts not only provide a uniform appearance on collection day, they
also reduce blowing trash, odors, animal scavenging and other health concerns.
Residents love the carts which are easy to roll and control.
You will see a tremendous improvement in the aesthetics of a community when
automated services are implemented. Gone are mismatched containers, bags and other
unsightly set-outs. Residents are saved the hassle and expense of providing their own
containers. In addition, the recycling process by the resident is simple by allowing
comingled recyclables to be placed in one Toter vs. several bins. This also eliminates the
need to place the recyclables in plastic bags before placing them in the Toter.
Automating recyclable collection has the same results. As a matter of fact, many
communities find that automating refuse collection can also drive recycling efforts.
Automated recycling collection that provides residents with a convenient wheeled cart for
recyclables, as well as one for refuse, and makes it easier for residents to recycle more.
Another benefit of automation is safety. At Republic, safety is our number one priority
and automation is proven to be safer and results in fewer injuries and reduced workers’
compensation claims.
From an environmental sustainability standpoint, automation makes the most sense. Full
automation is the most efficient means of refuse collection.
Republic wants to be your environmental services partner. Our hauling operations across
the United States are reporting that many progressive communities are moving toward
automation as the safest, most cost effective and best program for residents.
We are 100% committed to making sure that all waste and recyclables are collected and
managed in an environmentally sound manner.
Republic Services is working hard to maintain our reputation as the best provider of quality
environmental services to municipalities. When you need reliable and flexible waste
services, we are ready, willing and able to help. Most importantly, we understand your
needs and believe that we can assist you in achieving your sustainability goals. We have a
great team of professional people who are committed to providing you with the services
you need to get the job done right.
We are confident that we can provide you with a more efficient and environmentally
friendly system. We look forward to working with you.
Please contact me if you have any questions or desire additional information about
automated collection of waste and recyclables.
Sincerely,
Mike Reeves

What is Single Stream Recycling?
This means that all recyclable material is collected together. If
your paper will tear and is free of food and drink…it’s recyclable.
No sorting necessary…no removing paper clips or staples. Just
simply add your empty plastic, aluminum and steel containers.

CITY OF ROCKPORT
Special Workshop Agenda: Tuesday, April 12, 2011
AGENDA ITEM “D ”:
Update, presentation and general discussion of revised Annexation Policy Map dated 4/12/2011
with (1) addition of Area “Z”, and (2) boundary modifications to Areas “D”, “K”, and “J”.
SUBMITTED BY:
Building & Development Director Mike Henry;
City Secretary Irma Parker.
APPROVED FOR INCLUSION ON AGENDA: TJB (8)
SUMMARY: At the Strategic Planning Retreat held in January, 2011 several annexation issues
were discussed including: (1) possible trade of ETJ with Town of Fulton for the City to be able
to annex the entire county airport; and (2) Status of Colonia projects in Area K, D and J with
lines possibly re-drawn due to land purchases by the City and other possible changes due to ongoing and completed colonia projects. Changes and updates were made by the consultant and
noted in the attached Annexation Policy Map. Staff is finalizing Service Plans for Annexation
Areas “D”, “E”, “K”, and a new area to be known as Area Z which comprises 508 acres. Should
this area be annexed, the City’s ETJ boundary will be extended westward and southward beyond
F.M. 1069 and F.M. 188.
Along with Area Z (see Attached) there are existing areas in and around the so called “donut
area”. This “donut area” lies between Verne Street and Highway 35 bypass, and north and south
of F.M. 1069 (Market Street). Specific areas of interest at this time include Areas D, K and some
portions of Area J. Area J is a subject area but newly purchased property within Area J by the
City now places said property in the “exempt” status and can be annexed at anytime. In addition,
areas in and around Area J have been identified as “Colonia Areas” and are also exempt from
being on an annexation plan.
Another area that is exempt from an annexation plan is Area K, which is a known Colonia.
These Colonia areas are identified through the Aransas County Colonia Plan study, 2003 – 2005,
conducted by Grantworks, Inc.
Last but not least is Area E (See Attached). This area consists of 167 acres and is adjacent to the
Intracoastal Canal. This area is an exempt area and should be annexed as it includes property
that was bisected by annexed Area B.
These areas are identified on the City’s annexation study plan (attached) as prepared by the
planning firm of Freese & Nichols, Inc. Also included is the Prioritized Growth Area chart
showing present and future annexations and associated land statistics.
Due to the changes and updates made by the Consultant at the direction of Staff, Areas D, K, and
J have significantly changed. After approval of the Annexation Policy Map at a future Council
Meeting, new metes and bounds descriptions and maps will be ordered for each of those Areas
that have changes. Staff will again proceed with updated Service Plans.
