PROVIDING FOR THE CREATION OF SECTION 1260 LIMITING "OTHER
USES" ON NONCONFORMING USE LOTS.
Two building permits have been received by the Community Development Department for
automotive service related businesses to be placed on lots that already had a pre - existing non-
conforming use. In order to avoid this type of development in the future, a text amendment to
the Zoning Code was proposed by staff. This text amendment would amend Chapter 12 of the
Owasso Zoning Code, creating Section 1260, "Nonconforming Uses Limit Other Uses" and
would read as follows:
' 1. Each existing and proposed use, including all accessory buildings and uses, shall
be located on a lot or a parcel of land having a required area for each such use.
2. These uses shall be so located that the lot or parcel of land can be divided into
smaller lots or parcels of land, each of which will contain not less than the
' required area, and on each of which the number and location of structures will
comply with the requirements of this Ordinance when considered as a separate lot
or parcel of land.

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: RODNEY J RAY
CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF MATERIAL TO REPAIR 129TH
EAST AVENUE
DATE: August 10, 1993
BACKGROUND:
During the August 3 City Council meeting I noted that 129th East Avenue between 76th Street
and 86th Street had developed serious problems and was becoming dangerous. Subsequently,
I met with Commissioner Harris on Friday, August 6th for the purpose of providing him with
evidence that the heavy truck traffic from the rock quarry was the cause of those problems and
to request assistance from the County in repairing the road.
After touring the damaged section of 129th, Commissioner Harris and his foreman, Ray Wilson,
agreed that the problem was serious and, if left without attention, was a danger to the driving
public. I then requested that the Commissioner review his priorities in relation to the immediate
need of other projects on his work schedule. Such a review was completed by the
Commissioner and I was notified on Monday, August 9th that work on 129th would begin on
Tuesday, August 10th.
Ms Krantz and Mr Griffin had been communicating with the County foreman and had already
begun to make preparations for the project. As a result of their preparedness, the City
responsibilities for traffic control and coordination were met, allowing the project to get
underway on Tuesday morning, August 10, on schedule.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
The County has agreed to supply the labor and equipment needed to accomplish the repair. The
County requests that the City purchase all material for a project of this nature. The City's
responsibility, therefore, is the purchase of the rock, screenings and asphalt used in the project.
�l
MEMORANDUM
Repair to 129th E Ave
August 10, 1993
Page 3
FUNDING:
Funding for this project is available through the budget (Page 92) under the Capital
Improvements Fund. The staff had originally planned to use $25,000 of the $57,271
appropriated to overlay 129th, however, the condition of the road requires a more substantial
repair project. If the estimate of cost is accurate and the Council authorizes the expenditure of
these funds, there will be $17,000 remaining for other street projects this fiscal year.
REQUEST:
This request is for Council approval of the purchase of materials from companies that have been
awarded competitively bid contracts by Tulsa County (as per Ordinance #455 providing for the
use of municipal and county contracts when such entities have a population in excess of 50,000);
for rock and screenings (Anchor Stone) and asphalt (Cummins Materials). The request also is
for authority for the expenditures to be listed as a "not to exceed" amount rather than a specific
dollar amount. Without soil testing and engineering it is difficult, within the time frame
available, to project the quantities (of excavated material) to an exact degree.
RECONIlMIENDATION•
The staff recommends Council approval of the purchase of road repair materials from Anchor
Stone for 11h inch crusher run (County bid #148082 at $2.50 per ton) in an amount not to
exceed $10,000, and to Cummins Materials for asphalt (County bid #148082 at $13.10 per ton)
in an amount not to exceed $30,000, and to Koch Industries for emulsion (County bid #148082
at .55 per gallon) in an amount not to exceed $800.

THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
RODNEY J RAY
CITY MANAGER
REQUEST FOR COUNCIL
TELEVISION REGULATION
August 12, 1993
CONSIDERATION OF CABLE
Several months ago I requested that our attorney undertake to become familiar with, and provide
staff direction, for any actions the City may wish to take utilizing the provisions of the Cable
Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992. Pursuant to that request, Mr
Cates has attended training sessions and conducted research relative to that subject.
Based upon his research, Mr Cates has presented the attached memorandum wherein he
recommends certain actions be taken by the Council in order to preserve its rights to regulate
cable television. At his request, and after reviewing his findings, I listed an agenda item for
your consideration that, if approved, would start the process of re- regulating some of the cable
services. Mr Cates' memorandum is attached for your review and clearly outlines the issues
relevant to the discussion of regulation. I concur with both the findings, conclusions,
observations and recommendation of Mr Cates and urge the Council to carefully review the
memorandum.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff recommends that the Council declare its intent to provide regulation of cable television
as provided by the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992, and that
the Mayor be authorized to execute FCC Form 328; and that the Mayor be authorized to execute
a notice to cable operator under FCC rules on customer standards.
ATTACHMENT:
1. Memorandum from Mr Cates dated August 6, 1993
(2) For a variety of reasons, including local
franchising requirements and the extraordinary expense of
constructing more than one cable television system to serve
' a particular geographic area, most cable television
subscribers have no opportunity to select between competing
cable systems. Without the presence of another multichannel
video programming distributor, a cable system faces no local
'
competition. The result is undue market power for the cable
operator_ as compared to that of consumers and video
programmers.
' (20) The Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, in its
amendments to the Communications Act of 1934, limited the
regulatory authority of franchising authorities over cable
operators. Franchising authorities are finding it difficult
under the current regulatory scheme to deny renewals to cable
systems that are not adequately serving cable subscribers.
' As a result of the foregoing, Congress adopted the Cable Act of
1992, which, in part, at Section 3 thereof provides for regulation
'
of rates and at Section 8 thereof provides for consumer protection
and customer service provisions.
RATE REGULATION
As provided under the Cable Act of 1992, as well as FCC
' regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, local jurisdictions may
exercise rate regulation over cable systems which are not subject
to effective competition. Expressed another way, a cable system
which is subject to effective competition is exempt from rate
regulation. A cable system which is subject to effective
competition is one of the following, to -wit:
' a) An operator that serves less than thirty percent (30 %) of
the households in the operating territory;
' b) Comparable multi - channel video service provider which
offers service to at least fifty percent (50 %) of households in
franchise territory and fifteen percent (15 %) of households
subscribe to such service; or,
c) The franchising authority offers service to fifty percent
(50 %) of the households.
Assuming that the municipality is anticipating rate regulation of
a cable system deemed by it not to be subject to effective
w competition, the _local jurisdiction, as provided under the Cable
Act of 1992, and FCC regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, is
limited to regulating basic tier rates and associated equipment.
The 1992 Cable Act divides cable services into three (3)
2
I�

r
operator is not subject to effective competition based upon the
franchising authorities filing of certification with the FCC.
Further, the FCC will not notify the franchising authority that
it's certification has become effective. Accordingly, absent a
challenge to local certification, thirty (30) days from the date
on the return receipt, the locality can assume it's certification

CONSUMER PROTECTION AND CUSTOMER SERVICE
Under the provisions of Section 8 of the Cable Act of 1992,
a franchising authority may establish and enforce customer service
requirements of the cable operator and construction schedules and
other construction related requirements, including construction
related performance requirements of 'the cable operator. Section
8 of the Cable Act of 1992 directs that the Commission shall,
within 180 days of enactment of the Cable Television Consumer
Protection and Competition Act of 1992 establish standards by which
cable operators may fulfill their customer service requirements.
Such standards must include, at a minimum, requirements governing
cable system officer_ hours and telephone availability,
installations, outages and service calls and communications between
the cable operator and subscriber (including standards governing
bills and ref_unds). The FCC, to date has promulgated customer
service standards pertaining to the following, to -wit: (1)
Service unbundling, (2) billing itemization, (3) negative billing
prohibited, (4) tier buy through prohibition, (5) uniform rate
structure, (6) hours of operation and telephone availability, (7)
speed of service requirements, (8) appointment windows, (9) notice
of service and rate changes, annual notice, (10) billing and
refunds. Further, the FCC has stated that a local franchising
authc >rity may enforce the provisions of _items six through ten by
givinq notice to the cable provider not less than ninety (90) days
prior t:o the intended date of enforcement. It is important to
note, at this juncture, that Section 8 of the Cable Act of 1992
specifically states that "nothing in this section shall be
construed to preclude a franchising authority and a cable operator
from agreeing to customer service requirements that exceed the
standards established by the Commission. Further, nothing in the
Act should be construed to prevent the establishment or enforcement
of any municipal law or regulation... concerning customer service
that imposes customer service requirements that exceed the
standards set by the Commission or that addresses matters not
addressed by the standards set by the Commission under this
Section ". Accordingly, the local franchising authority, ninety
(90) days subsequent to written notification of intent to regulate,
may enforce the FCC customer service standards as well as may
impose customer service standards in addition thereto which are not
speci_fical.ly preempted by federal law.

' and needs on the part of it's customers. It is opined that such,
although presenting an opportunity for skirmishes, nevertheless,
' has the ultimate potential of establishing understanding and
acceptance which fosters provider- subscriber satisfaction.
It is submitted that due to the monopolistic nature of cable
' television, a legitimate expectation of regulation is possessed on
the part of the public. I would submit that evidence of the
existence of such expectation already exists by virtue of the input
' the municipality has received during the cable franchise renewal
process. I submit that the citizenry of Owasso, Oklahoma, has in
the past, expressed surprise over the absence of regulatory
' authority arising by virtue of the Cable Communications Policy Act
of 1.984, due to the citizenry's perceived regulatory power pursuant
to the franchising authority possessed under the Constitution of
the State of Oklahoma.
I am of the opinion that if the City of Owasso, Oklahoma,
defers regulation to the FCC, the impact locally will be
' inattentiveness to local concerns. This position is predicated
foremost by the fact that the FCC lobbied against passage of the
Cable Act of 1992. Additionally, the FCC, by virtue of requested
' comments during proposed rule making has evidenced an attitude of
encouragement of local regulation. It has been opined that
although the Clinton administration may encourage a more consumer
oriented approach the FCC, in recent years, probably due to the
Reagan -Bush era of deregulation of private enterprise, has been
known more for attempting to deregulate than regulate industry.
Finally, in a general sense, recognition of the fact that the FCC
' is not only geographically, but most likely attitudnally, far
removed from the concerns of the citizens of the City of Owasso,
Oklahoma, it is submitted that deferment to the FCC, will in all
likelihood result in a continuation of "business as usual ".
Based upon the foregoing I submit that a recommendation to the
City Council of the City of Owasso, Oklahoma, to avail itself of
the regulatory powers arising by virtue of the Cable Television
Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 should be made..
In conjunction therewith, authorization should be sought from the
'
Council to enable the Mayor to execute FCC Form 328 - Certification
of Franchising Authority to Regulate Basic Cable Service Rates and
Initial Finding of Lack of Effective Competition. Finally,
'
authorization should be sought from the City Council authorizing
the Mayor to execute the Notice to Cable Operator under FCC rules
on customer service standards. For your convenience, I have
'prepared such documents and enclose them herewith.
If the City Council of the City of Owasso, Oklahoma,
determines to avail itself of the regulatory abilities provided by
' the Cable Act of 1992, in addition to the foregoing, I recommend
that we immediately embark upon the establishment, for Council
approval, of regulations with respect to rate regulation

Dear Mr. Comfort-.:
OWASSO, OKLAHOMA
74055
On April 7, 1993, the Federal Communications Commission
released a Report and Order adopting a new rule (47 C.F.R. Section
76.309) implementing Section 8 of the Cable Television Consumer
Protection and Competition Act of 1992; that section governs the
establishment, impl,�mentation and enforcement of customer service
standards for cable operators nationwide. A copy of the new rule
is enclosed.
Paragraph (c.;) of the new rule establishes federal customer
service standards ( "federal standards "). Paragraph (a) of the new
rule provides that a franchising authority may enforce the federal
standards, but in order to do so, the franchising authority must
provide affected cable operators 90 days' written notice of it's
intent to enforce the standards. This letter constitutes the City
of Owasso's not = its of intent to enforce the federal standards.
The City intends to begin enforcing the federal standards on
November 11, 1993.
Paragraph (b) of the new rifle reserves to franchising
authorities, among other things, rights to establish and /or enforce
state and local customer service requirements that exceed or are
not covered by the federal standards. The City of Owasso,
Oklahoma, reserves and intends to exercise all rights reserved to
franchising authorities.

' TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: STEVE COMPTON AND MICHAEL KNEBEL
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR THE PURCHASE OF A 1993
' FOUR WHEEL DRIVE 1/2 TON PICKUP TRUCK
DATE: August 10, 1993
BACKGROUND:
For more than a year the Engineering Department has been utilizing a City owned 1985
Plymouth Grand Fury with approximately 150,000 miles and an employee's personal vehicle
for job site inspections, preliminary site reviews, surveying, witnessing required testing, etc.
In the past, the city has been reimbursing the project inspector for the use of a personally
owned four wheel drive vehicle. This reimbursement is in the form of a payment of $0.24
per mile driven while on City business (as per standard City policy). The mileage
reimbursement budget line item exists in several department's budgets to cover a personal
vehicle used on a periodic basis for City business. Although the Engineering Department's
monthly mileage reimbursement payments are not generally substantial amounts, they are
payments for miles accumulated from daily usage of a personal vehicle and are a continual
drain on funds that could otherwise be directed toward a capital purchase. The staff
recognized that there could be drastic increases in the mileage charges due to escalating local
construction activities and therefore included funding for the purchase of an Engineering
Department vehicle in the 1993 -94 budget. Please note that the budgeted vehicle would be
used on an "as needed" basis by all members of the Engineering Department.
VEHICLE TYPE & SPECIFICATIONS
The engineering department is required to inspect the construction and installation of roads
and utilities in new subdivisions, new commercial sites, and on City projects. Often, the
temporary construction access (or total lack of established access when surveying) to these
sites requires the use of a vehicle with a high ground clearance and when the weather is
inclement, four wheel drive capabilities would be a distinct advantage. After reviewing the
vehicles that would be suitable for this type of application, it was determined that, other than
the four wheel drive capabilities, the vehicle should be identical to the one currently in use
by the City Building Inspector. Specifications were written using those criteria and delivered
to nine separate vendors on Friday - July 30, 1993. (A copy of the vehicle specifications is
attached for your review.)
there will minimal impact to long term department goals if the additional $482.70 is
reallocated from another capital outlay line item.
IRECOMMENDATION:
Upon review of the bid document and based on (1) the increase in the number of inspections
performed by the engineering department and (2) the negative impact of continued mileage
reimbursements, it is recommended that the City Council approve the purchase of one 1993
Ford F150 four wheel drive pickup truck from Don Thornton Ford, Tulsa, OK., in the
amount of $13,482.70.

Previously, a final plat for the property contained within Owasso Commercial Center III was
approved by the Owasso Planning Commission and City Council. Originally, this plat was
entitled Owasso Commercial Center H. This approved plat was never filed with the County and
has since expired.
Since that time, the Planning Commission and City Council have approved a final plat titled
Owasso Commercial Center II for a completely different property, this plat has been filed.
Because the applicants original plat had the same title, it was necessary for the title of the
resubmittal to be changed to Owasso Commercial Center III.
This plat, essentially, is the same plat that had received previous approval from the Planning
Commission and the Owasso City Council with the exception of two changes. The access area
shown on the final plat from E. 76th Street North, on the previous submittal shown as dedicated
public right -of -way, is intended to be maintained as a private street.
In addition to the street being maintained privately, there is also a minor change in one of the
lot lines. The lot line that has been changed involves the lot line shared by Lots 1 and 2 of
Block 1 in the northern portion of the proposed plat. An 8 1/2 x 11" copy of the previous
submittal has been enclosed for your information and review.
The final plat was presented to the Owasso Technical Advisory Committee at its June 30, 1993
meeting. No objections were voiced regarding the amended plat. The Technical Advisory
Committee did have several required corrections to be made to the submitted plat and the
enclosed plat shows all of those corrections.
The Planning Commission unanimously approved the Owasso Commercial Center III final plat
providing that all recommended corrections from the TAC committee and Engineering staff were
included on the final submittal. Again, the plat enclosed within your packet contains these
corrections.

' SUBJECT: RAM PLAZA PLAT AND COVENANT MODIFICATIONS
DATE: August 12, 1993
' BACKGROUND:
Previously, both the final plat and covenants for Ram Plaza were approved by City Council at
the June 15, 1993 Council Meeting. Since that time, the developer has reviewed the original
submittal and is requesting that three modifications occur.
As you may recall, on -site detention is required for the Ram Plaza PUD. The applicant is
requesting that the final plat be amended for the purposes of identifying that area to be used for
on -site detention, as well as identifying the mutual access easements. Both of these items were
' a portion of the original submittal (located in the construction plans and covenants), but were
not shown on the plat.
' In addition to the two modifications on the plat, the developer is also submitting new covenants.
Covenants of subdivisions are generally not enforceable by municipal government. However,
a portion of the Ram Plaza covenants will include the PUD restrictions. With the addition of
' the PUD restrictions, it certainly makes it clear to potential buyers that portions of the Ram
Plaza covenants will be enforceable by City Council.
' Staff has reviewed the changes and feels it is nothing but beneficial for City Council to amend
the plat and covenants for Ram Plaza to include the three additional items.
' RECOMMENDATION:
' The amended final plat and covenants for Ram Plaza comply with the Owasso Subdivision
Regulations; therefore, the staff recommends approval of the final plat.

1. Ram Plaza final plat.

BACKGROUND:
On June 7, 1993, the City was notified that the State Office of Civil Emergency Management
had approved a $4750 grant for the repair and renovation of warning sirens. During its June
15, 1993 meeting, the City Council voted to accept the grant offer and authorized the Mayor to
' execute the required documents. Subsequently, on July 6, 1993, the City Council awarded a
contract to Goddard Enterprises for the purchase and installation of eight "SCH" type
received /decoders for the upgrade of warning sirens.
' At the time of the contract award (July 6), the staff recommended a funding option that included
the need for a supplemental appropriation. The supplemental appropriation was necessary if the
City desired to accept the grant and its requirement for matching funds and repair all of the
remaining unrepaired sirens. The Council did, in fact, select that option and directed the repair
of eight sirens, as recommended.
d However, even though all of the above actions have been approved, the Council has not yet
taken action to approve the necessary budget amendments to finalize the project. In order to
complete the financial transactions associated with this project, the staff requests that the Council
approve the following amendments to the General Fund budget:
1. Approve an increase in the General Fund estimate of revenues by $4750 as a result of
the civil defense grant; and,
2. Approve a supplemental appropriation to the Capital Outlay section of the General Fund
Civil Defense Department budget by $7630 ($4750 from the grant award and $2890 from
' General Fund reserves).
Please note that the renovation project is currently underway, with the repairs expected to be
Icompleted by August 20th. The grant is a reimbursement type that requires the City to expend

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: RODNEY J RAY
CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR ACCEPTANCE OF A GRANT FROM THE FEDERAL
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY FOR THE RENOVATION
OF WARNING SIRENS
DATE: June 11, 1993
BACKGROUND:
In July 1991 the City of Owasso requested matching funds from the state office for civil defense
for the purpose of purchasing new warning siren receiver /encoders. The grant request was
prepared by Ms Krantz in cooperation with Mr Schick and Mr Stamper, and was for 50 -50
matching funds (see attachment). The request was for a total of $4750 federal dollars.
' On Monday, June 7, 1993, I was informed through Mr Schick that the City of Owasso had
finally been awarded the requested funds and that the state Department of Civil Emergency
Management must be notified within ten days of our acceptance of the grant. The awarded grant
is in the amount of $4750 and requires a local match of $4750, for a total project cost of $9500
for the purpose of converting our warning system to a radio control receiver /encoder system.
The project must be completed no later than September 1, 1993.
If accepted, the grant will allow the city to renovate eight warning sirens instead of the two
originally planned for this year. The eight renovated sirens will complete our upgrade of all
sirens and advance our renovation project by four years. However, in order to complete the
project by the established deadline, the staff will have to move very quickly to solicit bids,
complete the renovations, and request the reimbursement of funds. There appears to be no
reason why the schedule cannot be met.
tFUNDING:
The proposed FY 1993 -94 Civil Defense budget does not contain adequate funding for the $4750
match and, in fact, has only $2490 available. The staff will recommend that if the grant is
accepted, the remaining $2260 needed for the match be expended from the capital outlay section
Iof the General Government budget ($3000 anticipated appropriation).

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: RODNEY J RAY
CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT TO "UPGRADE"
CIVIL DEFENSE WARNING SIRENS
IR DATE: June 30, 1993
BACKGROUND:
In 1989 the City of Owasso initiated a program designed to gradually upgrade the City's civil
defense warning siren system. The first step in that program was the purchase and installation
of one additional new siren that was installed in the Hillside subdivision. The second phase of
the program was a five -year phase -in replacement of worn out receivers on fourteen of the old
model sirens originally purchased from the City of Tulsa. During FY 1991 -92 the City
upgraded five of the sirens with new receivers /decoders. Then last year (FY92 -93) one
additional upgrade was accomplished.
On June 15, 1993, the City Council authorized the Mayor to execute documents accepting a
1 $4750 grant from the Department of Civil Emergency Management. The grant requires the City
to match the funds with an additional $4750 for the purpose of purchasing radio operated
receiver /decoders for the Owasso warning siren system. The availability of those funds will
' allow us to complete the original five -year program this year. If this request is approved, all
Vfourteen of the old Tulsa sirens will have been renovated utilizing new technology.
' In 1991 -92 the staff determined that the only equipment compatible with our existing system was
an "SCH" type Federal (brand name) receiver /decoder with "tone coded squelch ". Therefore,
a "sole source" bid was requested and subsequently granted. The staff continues to recommend
' that the same "brand" of equipment be used for the warning siren upgrades. The "Federal"
receiver /decoder is the only equipment 100% compatible with our existing system and affords
civil defense personnel the best opportunity to avoid system failure due to equipment
' incompatibility.
The staff has solicited bids from three vendors capable of supplying the Federal "SCH" type
receiver /decoder. The companies contacted were 1) Federal Signal, Inc, University Park, IL;
2) Goddard Enterprises, Guthrie, OK; 3) Weis American Fire Equipment, Tulsa, OK. We
