Mr. McElrath said that the Owasso Historical Society has approached the City regarding the
possibility of the City taking over the Historical Museum and Museum property. The Historical
Society has experienced declining revenues and fewer members, making it impossible to keep
the Museum open more than two days a week. The best solution appears to be for the City to
assume ownership of the Museum, including the property, building and contents. In exchange
for assuming ownership, the City would accept entire responsibility for operating expenses,
including the cost of utilities, maintenance, upkeep, insurance, etc., and would forgive the
$4592.17 debt owned for the land that the Society purchased from the City. The City would
agree to provide an employee to locate at the Museum. That employee would be responsible for
extending the operating hours and recruiting and coordinating volunteers. The employee would
be assigned to the Museum in addition to his or her existing responsibilities. An Owasso
Museum Advisory Board would be created for the purpose of advising the City Council and staff
on decisions relating to the operation and development of the Museum. That Board would be
comprised of the Mayor or his designee, the President of the Historical Society, the President of
the Owasso Arts and Humanities Council, and two other members designated by the Owasso
Historical Society Board of Directors. This advisory board would provide for Historical Society
participation in the future operations and development of the Museum. Since the Owasso
Historical Society lacks the resources to continue to expand, collaborating with the City would
generate the support needed to maintain the continuity of its work. It was suggested that the
proposed agreement be changed to reflect that the Advisory Board include the President of the
Owasso Historical Society or designee and the President of the Owasso Atis and Humanities
Councilor designee. That would give those bodies the flexibility of appointing someone other
than the president to the advisory board if they so desire. Ms. Kimball moved, seconded by
Mr. Thoendel, to approve the agreement, with the suggested modifications, transfen'ing
ITEM 7: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
FOR COUNCIL APPROVAL OF AN AGREEMENT TO TRANSFER REAL
PROPERTY FROM THE OW ASSO HISTORICAL SOCIETY TO THE CITY OF

In order to participate in the E-911 system, the Office of the Attorney General has ruled that the
interlocal agreement must be renewed annually by resolution. The renewal must be completed
prior to May 1 of each subsequent year. Failure to renew the agreement would disqualify the
City from collecting the 5% surcharge, as well as prohibit Owasso from participating in the
system. The City of Owasso has historically renewed the E-911 lnterlocal Agreement annually
since its inception. INCOG is facilitating the renewal process.
The interlocal agreement requires that all community governments that participate in the E-911
system must jointly fund the system. Collecting a surcharge on local telephone bills
accomplishes this. Owasso collects a 5% surcharge on the base telephone bill of each resident
that has telephone service.
The "Enhanced" 911 service replaced the traditional 911 system, which only rang directly into
the Police Department and did not display the name or address of the caller using the system.
The upgrade to the 911 system has proved invaluable, as the location of the emergency is
displayed in a matter of seconds, thus enabling emergency personnel to have the exact location of
the call.
In 1989, the City of Owasso, together with the surrounding communities of the Tulsa
Metropolitan Area, executed the first "interlocal agreement" with Southwestem Bell Telephone
and established "Enhanced" 911 Emergency Telephone service.

Summary of Plan Changes
Ord. #743 & Ord. #744
ATTACHMENT:
Staff is recommending approval of Ordinance #743 amending the OMRF Defined Benefit plan
and Ordinance #744 amending the OMRF Defined Contribution Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Periodically the Internal Revenue Service modifies rules and regulations regarding qualified
retirement plans. When this occurs we are required by the IRS to incorporate these modifications
into our plans. The Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of2001 (EGTRRA)
included modifications affecting the Defined Benefit Plan and the Defined Contribution plan. A
summary of plan changes which are a result of EGTRRA are attached. These changes will not
result in an increase in cost to the City. The modifications do include an increase in limitations on
Plan Benefits and an increase in Compensation limits. However these limits were already at a
level that did not affect our employees.
Two OMRF plans are offered to city employees. Both plans are IRS qualified retirement plans.
The first plan is a Defined Benefit plan which is the mandatory retirement plan for all full-time
employees who do not participate in the Police and Fire Retirement system. The City and
participating employees contribute to the plan and upon retirement an employee's retirement
benefits are based on a calculation including the average of their last 60 months salary and his/her
years of service. The second OMRF plan is a Defined Contribution plan which is an optional
supplemental retirement plan available to all full-time employees. Employees participating in the
Defined Contribution plan can contribute up to 12% oftheir base wages and the City will match
up to 2% ofthe employee's base wages $0.50 on the dollar. Employees select investment options
on an individual basis.

MEMORANDUM
Limitations on Contributions The IRS has increased the limits for maximum plan
contributions by the employee and employer. This
change has no cost impact to the employer, but would
allow an employee to contribute greater amounts in to
the retirement plan if desired-up to $40,000 per year or
100% of salary.
Increase in Compensation Limit The IRS has increased the limit for recognized salary of
plan participants. The maximum was $170,000, but is
now $200,000 under this change. This change will have
no impact until or unless an employee's salary exceeds
$170,000.
Direct Rollovers of Plan Distributions and Rollovers The IRS has expanded the list of plan types which a
from other Plans participant can transfer monies to and from. This
change has no cost impact to the employee or employer.
It will allow, for example, an employee to transfer IRA
account balances to their OMRF account.
Required Minimum Distributions The IRS has always required a terminated employee to
begin receiving money from their retirement account by
the age of 70 12. The method of calculating the
minimum amount that must be paid each year has been
relaxed, lowering the required amount. This change
benefits all participants by lowering the amount they
must be paid. However, participants can still choose to
receive more than the required minimum.
Defined Contribution Plan-Summary of Plan Changes
The IRS has increased the limits for maximum plan
benefit amounts payable to a paliicipant each year. This
change has no real impact to the employer or employee
unless the annual pension amount would have been
greater than $140,000.
The IRS has increased the fiillit forrecognized salary"of'
plan participants. The maximum was $170,000, but is
now $200,000 under this change. This change will have
no impact until or unless an employee's salary exceeds
$170,000.
The IRS has expanded the list of plan types to which a
paliicipant can transfer monies. This change has not
cost impact to the employee or employer. It will allow
an employee, for example, to transfer a plan distribution
to a 457 account, ifthey wish.
This requires the use of specific mortality tables for
adjusting any benefit or limitation under Code Section
415. This change has no real impact to the employer or
employee unless the annual pension amount would have
been greater than the $140,000, using the new mortality
tables.

Staff recommends Council vote to receive the audit report.
RECOMMENDA TION:
In order to create a record in the minutes, Council will be asked to take action on a vote to receive
the audit report. If you have any questions about these reports or the City finances, please contact
me at City Hall at 376-1525 or you may contact our auditor, Frank Crawford, at 405-691-5550.

Enclosed are copies of the three reports prepared by the auditors:
The firm of Crawford & Associates, P.C. has provided audit services to the City and its trust
authorities for the past five years. Frank Crawford attended the March 11th Council work session
and presented the audit report to the City Council.

SHERRY BISHOP
FINANCE DIRECTOR
FROM:
HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
TO:
MEMORANDUM
Because implementing GASB 34 significantly changes the scope of the audit, the fees for the
fiscal year 2003 will increase regardless of what accounting firm provides the audit services.
The proposal from Crawford & Associates for th~ 2003 fiscal year audit services includes fees of
$28,620, an increase of 35%. The audit fee for the previous year was $21,200.
Frank Crawford, President of Crawford & Associates attended the March 11th Council meeting
and discussed the fiscal year 2002 financial reports, accounting changes, and the fiscal year 2003
audit proposal.
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) establishes generally accepted
accounting principals, the standards for accounting and auditing for governmental entities.
Effective this fiscal year, GASB Statement No. 34 creates major changes in financial reporting
requirements for cities. Retaining auditors that are already familiar with the City of Owasso's
records and systems would make implementing those changes much less difficult. Additionally,
Crawford & Associates are nationally recognized experts on the subject of GASB 34. No one is
better qualified to assist us with this restructming.
The normal procedure at this time would be to request proposals from accounting firms for audit
services for the next five years. There are some unusual circumstances this year that cause staff
to prefer to retain the services of Crawford & Associates for one more year without taking
proposals from other firms.
City charter and state statutes require that an independent accountant pelform an annual audit of
the City's finances. In February of 1998, the city accepted proposals for auditing services from
accounting firms. Those proposals included a fixed fee for each of five years. The firm of
Crawford & Associates, P.CO was selected to provide audit services. Each year for the past five
years, the City Council has approved a one-year contract with Crawford & Associates.

Audit Engagement Letter from Crawford & Associates
Staff recommends Council and Trustees authorize the engagement of Crawford & Associates
audit services the fiscal year ended June 2003 a fee not to exceed $28,620.
RECOMMENDA TION:
Staff believes that retaining the services of Crawford & Associates for an additional year is the
best option for the City and will request that the City Council and the Authority Trustees (OPW A
and OPGA) approve the proposed agreement.

Sincerely,
We wish to thank you for the confidence you have placed in our firm and look forward to continuing
to serve you.
For your benefit in understanding your audit and consulting costs, we have provided an "Audit
Contract Cost Summary" form which outlines how we arrive at audit and consulting costs. The
summary schedule will assist you in separating not-to-exceed audit costs from audit costs resulting
from changes in audit scope or consulting service costs.
However, new accounting standards recently issued will require the City to alter the manner and
content of its financial activity for fiscal year 2002-2003, specifically GASB Statement 34. This
effort, and it's audit implications are the primary reason of the change in audit fees from past years.
Crawford & Associates, P.c. is committed to remaining the leader in this field. We are also
committed to providing the highest quality of service at our lowest possible cost, and will continue to
provide our audit services to you below our standard hourly rates.

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS AND ADVISORS TO GOVERNMENT
CRAWFORD &. ASSOCIATESw P.C.
The management ofthe City of Ow as so, Oklahoma, is responsible for establishing and maintaining
internal control and for compliance with the provisions of contracts, agreements, and grants. In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of the controls. The objectives of internal control are to provide
management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss
from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance with
management's authorizations and recorded properly to permit the preparation of basic financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that federal award
programs are managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of
contracts and grant agreements.
Management Responsibilities
Our audit will be conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America; the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996;
and the provisions of OMB Circular A-l33; and will include tests of accounting records, a
determination of major programs in accordance with Circular A-I33, and other procedures we
consider necessary to enable us to express such an opinion and to render the required reports. If our
opinion on the basic financial statements or the Single Audit compliance opinion is other than
unqualified, we will fully discuss the reasons with you in advance. If, for any reason, we are unable
to complete the audit or are unable to fOlm or have not formed an opinion, we may decline to express
an opinion or to issue a report as a result of this agreement.
The reports on internal control and compliance will each include a statement that the report is
intended for the information and use of the audit committee, management, specific legislative or
regulatory bodies, federal awarding agencies, and if applicable, pass-through entities.
~ Internal control related to major programs and an opinion (or disclaimer of opinion) on
compliance with laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements that
could have a direct and material effect on each major program in accordance with the Single
Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and OMB Circular A-l33, Audits of States, Local
Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations.
~ Internal control related to the financial statements and compliance with laws, regulations, and
the provisions of contracts or grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a
material effect on the financial statements in accordance with Government Auditing
Standards.

CRAWFORD & ASSOCIATES. P.C.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about the number of transactions to
be examined and the areas to be tested. Also, we will plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable rather than absolute assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether caused by error or fraud. As required by the Single Audit Act Amendments
of 1996 and OMB Circular A-133, our audit will include tests oftransactions related to major federal
award programs for compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of contracts
and grant agreements. Because an audit is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute
assurance and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk
that material misstatements (whether caused by errors or fraud), illegal acts or noncompliance may
exist and not be detected by us. In addition, an audit is not designed to detect errors, fraud, or other
illegal acts that are immaterial to the basic financial statements or to major programs. However, we
will inform you of any material errors and any fraud that comes to our attention. We will also inform
you of any other illegal acts that come to our attention, unless clearly inconsequential. We will
include such matters in the reports required for a Single Audit. Our responsibility as auditors is
limited to the period covered by our audit and does not extend to matters that might arise during any
later periods for which we are not engaged as auditors.
Audit Procedures - General
Management is responsible for making all financial records and related information available to us.
We understand that you will provide us with such information required for our audit and that you are
responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that information. We will advise you about
appropriate accounting principles and their application and will assist in the preparation of your
financial statements, including the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, but the responsibility
for the financial statements remains with you. That responsibility includes the establishment and
maintenance of adequate records and effective internal control over financial reporting and
compliance, the selection and application of accounting principles, and the safeguarding of assets.
Management is responsible for adjusting the financial statements to correct material misstatements
and for confirming to us in the representation letter that the effects of any uncorrected misstatements
aggregated by us during the current engagement and pertaining to the latest period presented are
immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Additionally, as required by OMB Circular A., 13 3, it is management's responsibility to follow up and
take corrective action on reported audit findings and to prepare a summary schedule of prior audit
findings and a corrective action plan. The summary schedule of prior audit findings should be
available for our review on the date of our year-end fieldwork.
Mayor and Members of City Council

CRAWFORD &. ASSOCIATES. P.C.
An audit is not designed to provide assurance on internal control or to identify reportable conditions.
However, we will inform you of any matters involving internal control and its operation that we
consider to be reportable conditions under standards established by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating
to significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal control that, in our judgment,
could adversely affect the entity's ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data
consistent with the assertions of management in the basic financial statements. We will also inform
you of any nOilleportable conditions or other matters involving internal control, if any, as required by
OMB Circular A-l33.
As required by OMB Circular A-I33, we will perform tests of controls to evaluate the effectiveness
of the design and operation of controls that we consider relevant to preventing or detecting material
noncompliance with compliance requirements, applicable to each of the City of Ow as so, Oklahoma's
major federal award programs. However, our tests will be less in scope than would be necessary to
render an opinion on these controls and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed in our report on
internal control issued pursuant to OMB Circular A-I33.
We will obtain an understanding of the design of the relevant controls and whether they have been
placed in operation, and we will assess control risk. Tests of controls may be performed to test the
effectiveness of certain controls that we consider relevant to preventing and detecting errors and
fraud that are material to the basic financial statements and to preventing and detecting
misstatements resulting from illegal acts and other noncompliance matters that have a direct and
material effect on the basic financial statements. Tests of controls relative to the basic financial
statements are required only if control risk is assessed below the maximum level. Our tests, if
performed, will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on internal control
and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed in our report on internal control issued pursuant to
Government Auditing Standards.
In planning and performing our audit, we will consider the internal control sufficient to plan the audit
in order to determine the nature, timing and extent of our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinions on the City of Owasso, Oklahoma, basic financial statements and on its
compliance with requirements applicable to major programs.
Audit Procedures ~ Internal Controls
Our procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in
the accounts, and may include tests of the physical existence ofinventories, and direct confirmation
of receivables and certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals,
creditors, and fInancial institutions. We will request written representations from your attorneys as
part of the engagement, and they may bill you for responding to this inquiry. At the conclusion of
our audit, we will also request certain written representations from you about the financial statements
and related matters.

At the conclusion ofthe engagement, we will complete the appropriate sections of and sign the Data
Collection Form that summarizes our audit findings. We will provide copies of our reports to the
City of Owasso; however, it is management's responsibility to submit the reporting package
(induding financial statements, schedule of expenditures of federal awards, summary schedule of
prior audit findings, auditor's reports, and a corrective action plan) along with the Data Collection
Form to the designated federal clearinghouse and, if appropriate, to pass-through entities. The Data
Collection Form and the reporting package must be submitted within the earlier of 30 days after
receipt of the auditors' reports or nine months after the end of the audit period, unless a longer period
is agreed to in advance by the cognizant or oversight agency for audit. At the conclusion of the
engagement, we will provide information to management as to where the reporting packages should
be submitted and the number to submit.
Audit Administration, Fees and Other
o MB Circular A -133 requires that we also plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the City has complied with applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of
contracts and grant agreements applicable to major programs. Our procedures will consist of the
applicable procedures described in the OMB Circular A -133 Compliance Supplement for the types of
compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect of each of the City of Ow as so's
major programs. The purpose of those procedures will be to express an opinion on Owasso's
compliance with requirements applicable to each of its major programs in our report on compliance
issued pursuant to OMB Circular A-l33.
Our audit will be conducted in accordance with the standards referred to in the section titled Audit
Objectives. As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the basic financial statements
are free of material misstatement, we will perform tests of City of Owasso's compliance with
applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of contracts and grant agreements, including grant
agreements. However, the objective of those procedures will not be to provide an opinion on overall
compliance and we will not express such an opinion in our report on compliance issued pursuant to
Government Auditing Standards.

In our opinion, the system of quality control for the accounting and auditing practice of
Crawford & Associates, P.c. in effect for the year ended December 31, 1999, has been
designed to meet the requirements of the quality control standards for an accounting and auditing
practice established by the AICP A and was complied with during the year then ended to provide
the firm with reasonable assurance of complying with professional standards.
Because there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of quality control,
departures from the system may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of
a system of quality control to future periods is subject to the risk that the system of quality
control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or because the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our review was conducted in accordance with standards established by the Peer Review Board
of the AICP A. In performing our review, we obtained an understanding of the system of quality
control for the firm's accounting and auditing practice. In addition, we tested compliance with
the firm's quality control policies and procedures to the extent we considered appropriate. These
tests covered the application of the firm's policies and procedures on selected engagements.
Because our review was based on selective tests, it would not necessarily disclose all weaknesses
in the system of quality control or all instances oflack of compliance with it.
We have reviewed the system of quality control for the accounting and auditing practice of
Crawford & Associates, P.c. (the firm) in effect for the year ended December 31, 1999. A
system of quality control encompasses the firm's organizational structure and the policies
adopted and procedures established to provide it with reasonable assurance of complying with
professional standards. The elements of quality control are described in Statements on Quality
Control Standards issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICP A).
The design of the system and compliance with it are the responsibility of the firm. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the design of the system, and the firm's compliance
with the system based on our review.

Areas which have been discontinued are as follows:
Recent evaluation indicates that the program continues to be cost-effective within certain
locations. Two (2) full-time positions were added to the Streets Division in FY 02-03 enabling
additional mowing responsibilities without compromising other services. Therefore, the Public
Works Department elected to discontinue contracted mowing of specific locations that were
included in previous years.
For the past thirteen (13) years, the City of Owasso has utilized private-sector contracts for
mowing services in specified areas. The mowing program was developed to reduce seasonal
workload so that city crews can attend to other routine maintenance needs that must be
performed during the spring, summer and fall. The program is reviewed aooually to make
necessary adjustments to maintain effectiveness. Overall effectiveness is evaluated based on four
(4) criteria: quality, timeliness, cost, and citizen reaction. Historically, privatized mowing has
met or exceeded expectations in each of these areas.
BACKGROUND:
March 11,2003
DATE:
REQUEST FOR APPROV AL OF MOWING CONTRACTS
SUBJECT:
DAVID WARREN
PARKS DIRECTOR
FIELD
THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL
CITY OF OW ASSO
TO:
MEMORANDUM
The year 2003 mowing bid was advertised and bid packages were sent to twenty-two (22)
perspective contractors. Twelve (12) contractors submitted bids; a majOlity of which staff
believes are competitive. (Several contractors did not comply with the bid specifications or
requirements for the Main Street Right-of-Way).
BID ANALYSIS:
@ U.S. Highway 169 Right-of-Way
@ Main Street Right-of-Way
@ El Rio Vista Frontage and Center Medians
@ Rayola Park
@ McCarty Park
@ Elm Creek Park
@ Ator Park
@ Veteran's Park
As a result, the following areas were included in the bid specifications:
The use of private-sector contracts continues to enhance operating efficiency within the Parks
Department. Mowing time for full-time employees is reduced, allowing for a more rapid
response to routine maintenance needs and small constmction projects. Therefore, all park areas
previously included in the mowing program will remain unchanged.
For the past several years, the Main Street right-of-way (2nd Street to East 86th Street North)
between the curb and sidewalk has been periodically mowed by Public Works personnel. This
property requires frequent maintenance using a push mower and edger to ensure a quality
appearance. Because of site-specific equipment requirements and the need for more frequent
mowing, this property has not been able to be maintained in a manner to achieve desired
aesthetics. Therefore, this location was added to the program.
Because of the proximity of these sites to existing mowing routes, each of the properties can be
effectively integrated into the Public Works Department mowing schedule. In addition, these
areas can easily be maintained with a bmsh hog mower and herbicide chemicals which are
frequently used by Streets Division persoooel during routine mowing operations. Sites
recommended for contracted maintenance typically require more frequent mowing and specific
equipment (i.e., push mower, large finishing mower and mechanical edger) to effectively
maintain.
Page 2
Mowing Contracts
Based on the apparent low bids submitted, the total expense for all awarded contract mowing of
parks, medians, frontage and rights-of-way is $23,166.00. This cost represents a decrease of
$5,494.20 for the 2003 mowing season compared to the 2002 season, which is largely due to the
reduction in number of locations.
The 2003 mowing costs for the frontage, medians and rights-of-way had a decrease of $800.95
per mowing to $1,775.00. The U.S. Highway 169 right-of-way requires a total of six (6)
mowings each season. The Main Street right-of-way and El Rio Vista medians and fi'ontage are
to be mowed thirteen (13) times each season. Total cost for the season is calculated to be
$11,700.00.
The 2003 mowing costs for the parks indicate a slight decrease from the 2002 costs of $21.95 per
mowing to $637.00. Parks require a total of eighteen (18) mowings each season. Therefore, the
total cost for the season is calculated to be $11,466.00.

The rezoning was reviewed at the January 29, 2003 regular meeting of the City of Owasso
Technical Advisory Committee. Staff or utility providers provided no comments.
TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE:
The Owasso 2010 Master Plan identifies the subject property as having a future land use of
park and recreational. The applicant's proposal would seem to be inconsistent with the
Comprehensive Plan in that the applicant is requesting an industrial zoning classification.
Staff feels however, that by the original approval of the construction of the Sertoma building,
a change in the development pattern of the area has been created. Furthermore, the approval
of the construction of the Sertoma building would seem to be more appropriate than the
original 2010 Master Plan designation due to the abundance of park and recreational areas in
the vicinity. Staff feels that the areas designated as park and recreational to the west of Mingo
are more than sufficient to serve the recreational needs of the area and still allow for the
construction of viable, sales-tax producing commercial sites. Therefore, staff would be in
favor of a CG (Commercial General District) zoning designation rather than an IL (Industrial
Light District). A commercial zoning designation would still allow retail and civic uses, but
would limit the expansion of industrial uses to the west.
ANALYSIS:
This item was tabled from the February 10, 2003 Regular Meeting. The application requested
to rezone approximately 5.01 acres, not the 1.019 acres of the property that was aooexed in
August. The application has been corrected and a revised legal notice appeared in the February
20, 2003 edition of the Owasso Reporter.
The City of Owasso has received a request for the review of a rezoning for approximately
1.019 acres, more or less. The subject property is located on the north side of W. 2nd Ave.
approximately 1600 feet west of the W. 2nd Ave. and Main St. intersection. The applicant is
proposing to rezone the subject property from AG (Agricultural General District) to CG
(Commercial General District). In addition to civic functions, the applicant is proposing to
utilize the facility for various auction and retail uses. A general area map and a complete legal
description have been attached for your information and review.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of 02-03-01, rezoning approximately 1.019 acres, from AG
(Agricultural General District) to CG (Commercial General District).
If this Commission approves the application, this item does require City Council approval.
TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITfEE
The rezoning was reviewed at the January 29, 2003 regular meeting of the City of Owasso
Technical Advisory Committee. Staff or utility providers provided no comments.
Staff has received no phone calls or letters regarding this zoning request. Staff does not
anticipate public opposition to the request for the rezoning. Letters were mailed to
surrounding property owners on February 13, 2003 and the legal advertisement was
published on February 20, 2003. The subject property was posted on February 13, 2003.
Copies of both the letters to property owners and the legal advertisements are attached for
your information and review.
ANALYSIS
As previously stated, the applicant is requesting the review of this application in order to
utilize the site for retail purposes in addition to the civic functions currently underway.
Additionally, staffhas been made aware of changes that are to occur to the industrial property
to the south. The property owner has informed staff that the potential for commercial
rezoning requests along the south side of E. 76tlt N. are inevitable. Staff feels that
commercial developments along 76tlt St. N. are far more appropriate than industrial uses
serving as a "gateway" into the City of Owasso. Staff has also been informed by the
Community Development Director that both the north and south sides of E. 76tlt St. N. are
proposed for a combination of commercial and park / recreational uses in the current update
of the Comprehensive Plan.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CONSISTENCY
The Owasso 2010 Master Plan identifies the subject property as having a future land use of
park and recreational. The applicant's proposal would seem to be inconsistent with the
Comprehensive Plan in that the applicant is requesting an industrial zoning classification.
However, staff feels that by the original approval of the construction of the Sertoma building,
a change in the development pattern of the area has been created. Furthermore, this approval
would seem to be more appropriate than the original 2010 Master Plan designation. Staff
feels that the areas designated as park and recreational to the west Mingo are more than
sufficient to serve the recreational needs the area and still allow construction
viable, producing commercial sites. Therefore, would be in a
(Commercial General District) zoning designation rather than an II, (Industrial Light
District). A commercial zoning designation would still allow retail civic uses, but would
limit the expansion of industrial uses to the west.

at Owasso,
A map showing the proposed rezoning accompanies this notice.
more information on the proposed rezoning contact the
City Planner, City Hall, 111 N. Main Street, Owasso,
74055, or
The City Council's review of the recommendation of the Planning
Commission on the proposed rezoning shall be at a meeting time
and place to be determined by the Council, said information to be
available from the Owasso City Planner.
A copy of the Annexation Policy is attached for your information and review. The subject
property meets all of the requirements included within the policy with the exception of tract
size. In this particular case however, staff feels that the application is simply an addition to an
existing subdivision and denial of the request would prove to be counter-productive to the
goals and objectives outlined within the City's 2010 Master Plan. Staff believes that it is in
the best interest of the City of Owasso to annex this property rather than relying on Tulsa
County to serve the site once completed.
The property is currently zoned AG (Agricultural General District) in Tulsa County and would
remain this same zoning classification upon aooexation. The applicant has applied for a
change in the zoning classification from AG (Agricultural General District) to RS-3
(Residential Single Family High Density District). This application is scheduled for the April
7, 2003 regular meeting of the Owasso Plaooing Commission. Prior to the scheduled public
hearing, a rezoning sign will be posted on the property and property owners within 300' of the
property will be notified. All development that occurs on the subject property must adhere to
all subdivision and zoning requirements including but not limited to paved streets, sidewalks
and stormwater detention facilities.
ANALYSIS:
The applicant is requesting this annexation petition in order to complete Country Estates VI, a
residential subdivision. The property is bordered on the south, west, and north by Country
Estates III, IV and V, respectively. The applicant has completed the infrastructure and utility
construction while the property remained in Tulsa County. Additionally, the applicant has
forwarded copies of construction plans and the preliminary plat to ensure that the property
would meet City of Owasso development standards. City of Owasso Public Works
Department staff has informed this office that all infrastructure construction completed to date
meets City standards.
The City of Owasso has received a request from DG&S Properties, applicant(s)/owner(s), for
the annexation of approximately 11.33 acres, more or less. The subject property is located on
the west side of N. Garnett Rd., approximately 2,640 feet north of the E. 116th St. N. and N.
Garnett Rd. intersection. A general area map and a complete legal description are included
with your packet.

See the attached map for property location. For more information on the proposed aooexation
contact the Community Development Department, City Hall, III N. Main,
74055 or (918) 1543.
All persons interested in this matter may be present at the hearing and give their objections to or
arguments for the proposal. The Planning Commission will submit its recommendation to the
City Council of the City of Owasso for its consideration and action, as provided by law. The
petition will be presented to the City of Owasso City Council at the Owasso Community Center,
301 South Cedar, Owasso, Oklahoma at 6:30 PM on the 18th day of March, 2003.
The Owasso Aooexation Committee reviewed the aooexation petition at the February 26, 2003
special meeting. At that meeting, the item was unanimously recommended for approval.
ANNEXATION COMMITTEE:
The aooexation petition was reviewed at the February 26, 2003 regular meeting of the City of
Owasso Technical Advisory Committee. Staff or utility providers provided no comments.
TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE:
A copy of the Annexation Policy is attached for your information and review. The subject
property meets all of the requirements included within the policy with the exception of tract
size. Staff feels that although the aooexation does not meet the tract size requirement in the
City's policy, the aooexation of this property would prove to be advantageous to the stated
goals and objectives of the Owasso 2010 Master Plan.
The applicant is requesting this aooexation petition in order to eventually construct a medical
office facility. The property is currently zoned RS (Residential Single Family District) in
Tulsa County but would be aooexed into the City of Owasso under an AG (Agricultural
General District) zoning classification. Prior to any action relative to a rezoning request, a
rezoning sign will be posted on the property and property owners within 300' will be notified.
All development that occurs on the subject property must adhere to all subdivision and zoning
requirements including but not limited to paved streets, sidewalks and stormwater detention
facilities. Residential sewer and water service will be provided by the City of Owasso.
ANALYSIS:
The City of Owasso has received a request from Tim Siegfried, applicant on behalf of The
United Pentecostal Church, owner, for the annexation of approximately 2.66 acres, more or
less. The subject property is located on the north side of E. 96th St. N., approximately 2,640
feet east of the N. 97th E. Ave. and E. 96th St. N. intersection. A general area map and a
complete legal description are included with your packet.

PETITION FOR ANNEXATION

Adopted by City Council on March 1, 1988.
10 While there is no minimum tract size, properties of larger than 20 acres are preferable.
2. All properties should be contiguous to existing City limits.
3. All properties should be annexed into the City limits as the lowest zoning classification,
that is, Agricultural (AG). landowners may then petition for rezoning if they desire
further development of their property. All legal uses annexed into the City will be legal,
but non-conforming, which means that they may continue but cannot be expanded
without proper zoning.
4. All public infrastructures that do not meet City standards will not be improved by the
City until brought to the City standard and accepted by the City Council. Such public
facilities must be improved at owners expense by the establishment of a special
assessment district or some other financing method.
5. Where a City limit boundary ends at a dedicated street, the boundary will not include the
street right-of-way. This policy will establish consistence and allow City employees and
citizens to know where the City boundaries are.
6. Properties that are rejected for annexation should not be considered for annexation for a
six month period after rejection by the City Council.
The following annexation policy for the City of Owasso is provided as a guideline and Sllould
not be construed as inflexible requirements for annexation.

PE'TITION FOR ANNEXATION
The property is currently zoned AG (Agricultural General District) in Tulsa County and would
Finally, the applicant has had preliminary discussions regarding the donation of the remainder
of land to the City. City staff has been working tirelessly with several land owners and
government agencies to acquire property in the area described in the annexation petition to
construct what could become a 100 - 200 acre off-road bike park. The preliminary plans also
include some perimeter walking trails and other family oriented amenities. The land donation,
although occurring some time in the future and after floodplain feasibility studies, would
become the second phase of the proposed off-road mountain bike park.
Furthermore, the applicant is requesting this petition in order to construct viable, sales tax
producing commercial sites along E. 76th S1. N. The applicant has informed staff that the
proposed use of the tract would include commercial developments offering a more appropriate
"gateway" into the City from the west on E. 76th 51. N. Upon successful floodplain fill
permits along E. 76th S1. N., the applicant will begin the rezoning and platting process for this
area of the property.
The purpose of the applicant's annexation request is three-fold. First, the City of Owasso is
aggressively attempting to locate a large plastics manufacturer along the eastern boundary of
the subject property. The applicant has graciously worked with both the Community
Development and Economic Development Departments in attempting to convince the
manufacturer to locate in the City of Owasso. In addition to keeping the City's best interest in
mind, the applicant has also agreed to begin the planning process which at this point includes
annexation, rezoning and eventually, the platting of the property.
ANALYSIS:
The City of Owasso has received a request from Allen and Doris Robinson,
applicant(s)/owner(s), for the annexation of approximately 150.51 acres, more or less. The
subject property is located on the south side of E. 76th 51. N., at the southeast corner of the N.

SECTION 31
Adopted by City Council on March 1, 1988.
1. While there is no minimum tract size, properties of larger than 20 acres are preferable.
2. All properties should be contiguous to existing City limits.
3. All properties should be annexed into the City limits as the lowest zoning classification,
that is, Agricultural (AG). Landowners may then petition for rezoning if they desire
further development of their property. All legal uses annexed into the City will be legal,
but non-conforming, which means that they may continue but cannot be expanded
without proper zoning.
4. All public infrastructures that do not meet City standards will not be improved by the
City until brought to the City standard and accepted by the City Council. Such public
facilities must be improved at owners expense by the establishment of a special
assessment district or some other financing method.
5. Where a City limit boundary ends at a dedicated street, the boundary will not include the
street right-of-way. This policy will establish consistence and allow City employees and
citizens to know where the City boundaries are.
6. Properties that are rejected for annexation should not be considered for annexation for a
six month period after rejection by the City Council.
The following annexation policy for the City of Owasso is provided as a guideline and s~lOuld
not be construed as inflexible requirements for annexation.

BEFORE THE HONORABLE
CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF OW ASSO, OKLAHOMA
PETITION FOR ANNEXATION
Robert Moore
City Planner
~
Dated at Owasso, Oklahoma, this 11th day of February, 2002.
A copy of the City of Owasso Annexation Policy is attached to this memorandum. The City's
policy, adopted by City Council on March 1, 1988, was based on twenty (20) years of annexation
history where among other methods; the City utilized the "strip-method" of annexation.
ANALYSIS:
Currently, the property is zoned AG (Agricultural General District) in Tulsa County. According
to the City of Owasso Annexation Policy, all property annexed into the City is required to retain
the current County zoning classification or to be annexed within the corporate limits at the least
intense City zoning categOlY, or AG (Agricultural General District). Upon successful approval
for annexation and prior to any development, the property would be subject to the City's review
requirements for rezoning. Some of these requirements include posting the property with a
rezoning sign, legal notification to sUlTounding propeliy owners and the publication of a legal
advertisement in the Owasso Reporter.
ZONING:
The City of Owasso has received a petition for the annexation of property lying within Section 6,
Tulsa County. The applicant is requesting review of this petition as an appeal of the
recommendation for denial at the Janumy 13, 2003 regular meeting of the Owasso Planning
Commission. The subject property totals 20.65 acres, more or less and is located on the east side
of N. 97th E. Ave., approximately 2,640 feet north of the N. 97th E. Ave. and E. 116th St. N.
intersection. A general area map and a complete legal description have been included with your
packet.
BACKGROUND:
March 12,2003
DATE:
COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION - PATRICK SCHUMACHER
(S6 - TUN - R14E)
ROBERT
THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF
MEMORANDUM
Staff believes that it is in the City's best interest to annex the Schumacher property or any parcel
of land not currently developed in an urban setting to effectively oversee the impact of that
Particular to Mr. Schumacher's petition, this tract of land is considered contiguous by a ten (10)
foot strip of public right-of-way along the eastern boundary of N. 97th E. Ave. Of interest to the
City are the additional two hundred (200) acres of developable land immediately adjacent to the
Schumacher property. The argument has been put forth by the Planning Commission however,
that the adjacent parcels are currently developed. Staff tends to disagree. Staff feels that the
current density of the area warrants some potential for large residential development to occur for
a developer who can parcel several of the properties together. There appear to be four (4) single
family structures along the N. 97th E. Ave. street frontage and approximately fifteen (15) single
family structures along the N. 126th E. Ave street frontage. This would equate to .09 dwelling
units per acre or one (1) dwelling unit per every ten (10) acres. The City of Owasso zoning
district with the least intense dwelling unit per acre requirement is the AG (Agricultural General
District). In the AG district, the maximum number of dwelling units allowed is 2.2 acres per
dwelling unit, well above the cunent developed density of the area in question.
Owasso has effectively used this method of annexation to ensure that nearby development occurs
with a standard above what is allowed by County regulations. Many of the developments where
the City has embraced this method include; Coffee Creek, Hale Acres and Ganett Creek. The
City uses the "strip-method" to extend its corporate limits into an area before development under
County regulations can occur. If a development does occur under County regulations and then
requests annexation, all public infrastructure that does not meet City standards will not be
improved by the City until brought to City standards and accepted by City Council. Such public
infrastructure must be improved at the owners' expense by the establishment of a special
assessment district or some other financing method. Therefore, the intent of the policy is to
extend into to an area likely to develop and entice surrounding property owners to petition for
annexation. With this intent in mind, the policy alleviates the need for any special financing
method because the property that would have developed in the County now has the opportunity
to be included within the City of Owasso.
As stated above, it has been the City's policy that properties not apparently considered
contiguous must include in their respective petitions an adequate amount of public right-of-way
or a strip of land connecting the property to current city limits in order to create a contiguous
parcel.
"The municipal governing body by ordinance may add to the municipality territory adjacent or
contiguous to its corporate limits and increase or diminish the corporate limits as the governing
body deems desirable for the benefit of the municipality. "
The policy lists six (6) guidelines for the proper review of annexation petitions. Of pmiicular
interest is the City's requirement that all petitions for annexation must include property that is
contiguous to existing City limits. In order to create a contiguous parcel, many applicants have
provided either a strip of public right-"of-way or a strip parcel ofland. And, in addition to being a
requirement of the City's policy for the review of annexation petitions, this "strip method" is also
consistent with the Oklahoma State Statutes governing municipal annexations.
Title 11, Section 21-101, Oklahoma State Statutes states that:

I am requesting that the appeal referenced in my January 14, 2003 letter be placed on the next

On January 14, 2003, I provided a written request to appeal to the Owasso City Council the
denial of an annexation request by the Owasso Planning Commission. I requested that the appeal
be heard on February 18th. Pursuant to that request, unsuccessful attempts were made to
reconcile differences and concerns of the Planning Commission. Therefore, that request was not

ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting this petition in order to construct RS-3 typical homes on the
subject property. As mentioned above, the subject property totals 20.65 acres and is
currently zoned AG (Agricultural General District) in Tulsa County. All property annexed
into the City is required to be zoned the lowest zoning classification (AG) or retain the
zoning classification obtained in Tulsa County. However, the current Tulsa County zoning,
as mentioned above, is AG thereby leaving the applicant with no option but to accept an AG
zoning classification. A rezoning request to allow for residential uses would require
notification to property owners within 300' as well as publication of a legal advertisement in
the Owasso Reporter. Additionally, a rezoning sign would be posted on the property at such
time that a rezoning was requested.

MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING

The Chair introduced the case and Robert presented the item. The surrounding land use
and surrounding zoning was described. The Owasso 2010 Master Plan identifies the
subject property as having future land use of public and low density residential. Staff
feels that this proposal is consistent with the Master Plan for several reasons. The Master
Plan labels the north half of the property as having a future land uses as public. If this
property did develop as a public use, it would be the third such land use category in this
section, a use of high intensity residential would further opportunities for home
ownership. The Master Plan identifies the southern half of the site as a future use of low
intensity residential. The plan defines low density residential as having a density of 2 - 5
dwelling units per acre. The Morningwood Preliminary Plat contains 58 lots on 15.00
acres with a density of 3.8 units per acre. The Technical Advisory Committee reviewed
the request at their December 30, 2002 meeting. No comments were received. Staff
recommends approval of the rezoning from AG (Agriculture) to RS-3 (Residential Single
Family High Density District). The access easement to the west was discussed. Mr.
David Charney requested a brief presentation to the Commissioners. He stated that

feet east of the E. 116tl1 St. N. and N. Garnett Rd. intersection.

it was advantageous to amlex the subject property. Interpretations of the State Statue
regarding the annexation of contiguous property were also discussed. Robert explained
that the property to the south will possibly be annexed into the city limits at a later date
and it is Staff's opinion the annexation of this property is advantageous to the City
Owasso. also stated that the annexation request does meet City policy and is adjacent
to the public right -of-way. Robert suggested tabling this item until the February Planning

arguments for the proposal. The Planning Commission will submit its recommendation to the
City Council of the City of Owasso for its consideration and action, as provided by law. The
petition will be presented to the City of Owasso City Council at the Owasso Community Center,
301 South Cedar, Owasso, Oklahoma at 6:30 PM on the 18th day of March, 2003.
Adopted by City Council on March 1, 1988.
1. While there is no minimum tract size, properties of larger than 20 acres are preferable.
2. All properties should be contiguous to existing City limits.
3. All properties should be annexed into the City limits as the lowest zoning classification,
that is, Agricultural (AG). landowners may then petition for rezoning if they desire
further development of their property. All legal uses annexed into the City will be legal,
but non-conforming, which means that they may continue but cannot be expanded
without proper zoning.
4. All public infrastructures that do not meet City standards will not be improved by the
City until brought to the City standard and accepted by the City Council. Such public
facilities must be improved at owners expense by the establishment of a special
assessment district or some other financing method.
5. Where a City limit boundary ends at a dedicated street, the boundary will not include the
street right-of-way. This policy will establish consistence and allow City employees and
citizens to know where the City boundaries are.
6. Properties that are rejected for annexation should not be considered for annexation for a
six month period after rejection by the City Council.
The following annexation policy for the City of Owasso is provided as a guideline and should
not be construed as inflexible requirements for annexation.

TY COUNCIL SPONSORED ANN'EXA TION:
PROCEDURES FOR ANNEXATION
ORDINANCE NUMBER 742:
The proposed ordinance 742 adds the federal definition of "substantial damage" to Owasso's Flood
Damage Prevention ordinance. Since the staff already recognizes the federal definition and has already
accounted for that definition in its interpretation of the ordinance, the staff's enforcement of the
floodplain regulations will not change in any way.
SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE:
The definition that FEMA wants Owasso to include in its flood ordinance is the meaning of "substantial
damage". Substantial damage means damage of any origin sustained by a structure whereby the cost
of restoring the structme to its before damaged condition would equal or exceed 50 percent of the
market value of the structure before the damage occurred. When enforcing the flood damage
prevention ordinance, the staff requires that any structure in the floodplain sustaining substantial
damage (because of anything - fire, flood, tornado, termites, etc.) be brought into compliance with the
flood damage prevention ordinance as a condition of its reconstruction and repair.
FEMA REGULATIONS:
According to federal regulations, one of the conditions of a community's participation in the National
Flood Insurance Program is that whenever the floodplain map of a community is changed, the
community's flood damage prevention ordinance must be brought up to date with FEMA regulations.
When FEMA informed Owasso municipal staff of the map change, the staff examined Owasso's
ordinance and compared it to the FEMA regulations. The staff believed that Owasso' s ordinance was
in compliance with the regulations. The staff then sent FEMA a copy of the city's ordinance and a
letter reporting this compliance. FEMA examined the ordinance and found that it was substantially in
compliance but that it lacked one definition.
BACKGROUND:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recently amended the floodplain maps for two
square miles within the City of Tulsa and within Tulsa County. The area covered by the maps included
part of the southem fenceline of Owasso. That fenceline is located along 66th Street North between
Mingo Road and Hwy. 169. Since the fenceline is actually a strip of incorporated telTitory of Ow as so,
the map change technically altered Owasso's floodplain.

ORDINANCE NUMBER 742
CITY OF OW ASSO, OKLAHOMA
1. Section 60.3(d)(l) cites compliance with Section 60.3(c)(1) through (14). Since base
flood elevations and the regulatory floodway have been established in the FIRM, the
latter section does not apply.
2. Section 60.3( d)( 4) allows permitting encroachments within the regulatory floodway
under certain conditions. Current City policy does not allow for such encroachments
due to the difficulty of evaluating and otherwise quantifYing increases in the base flood
elevation resulting from small incremental developments. Therefore, this subsection
does not apply.
3. Code of Ordinances, Part 12, Chapter 4, Section 12-414 requires that project data and
certain forms be submitted for approval prior to permitting. Attachment 4 to this
Ordinance 304, as ratified and amended by the City Council, established COE, Part 12, Chapter 4,
to regulate development within established flood hazard areas. Requirements stipulated in this
chapter denote compliance with Section 60.3( d) of the NFIP regulations. Additional comments
are as follows:
1. City of Owasso Ordinance 304, June 2, 1981
2. City of Ow as so Ordinance 367, March 17, 1987 amending the basic ordinance

I trust that this information fulfills requirements for continued City eligibility in the NFIP. If you
require further documentation, please notifY:
It must be emphasized that all ofthe standards specified in Paragraph 60.3(d) ofthe NFIP
regulations must be enacted in a legally enforceable document. This includes adoption of the
current effective FIS and FIRM to which the regulations apply and other modifications made by
this map revision. Some ofthe standards should already have been enacted by your community
Because the FIS establishing the Base (1 % annual chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) for your
community has been completed, certain additional requirements must be met under Section 1361
ofthe National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, within 6 months from the date ofthis
letter. Prior to April 16, 2003, your community is required, as a condition of continued eligibility
in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), to adopt or show evidence of adoption of
floodplain management regulations that meet the standards of Paragraph 60.3(d) of the enclosed
NFIP regulations (44 CFR Parts 59-78) by the effective date ofthe FIRM. These standards are
the minimum requirements and do not supersede any State or local requirements of a more
stringent nature.
FEMA has addressed all comments received on the Preliminary copies of the FrS and FIRM.
Accordingly, the FIS and FIRM for your community will become effective on April 16, 2003.
Before the effective date, FEMA will send you final printed copies of the FIS and FIRM.
On September 22, 1999, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) issued a Flood
Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that identified the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in the City
of Owasso, Tulsa County, Oklahoma. Recently, FEMA completed a re-evaluation of flood
hazards in your community. On January 23,2002, FEMA provided you with Preliminary copies
ofthe Flood Insurance Study (FIS) and FIRM that identify the existing flood hazards in your
community.

The FIRM panels have been computer..generated. Once the FIRM and FIS report are pIinted and
distributed, the digital files containing the flood hazard data for the entire county can be provided
to your community for use in a computer mapping system. These files can be used in
conjunction with other thematic data for floodplain management purposes, insurance purchase
and rating requirements, and many other planning applications. Paper copies ofthe FIRM panels
may be obtained by calling our Map Service Center, toll free, at 1-800-358-9616. Copies of the
digital files may be obtained by calling our Map Assistance Center, toll free, at
l-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627). In addition, your community may be eligible for
additional credits under our Community Rating System if you implement your activities using
digital mapping files.
To assist your community in maintaining the FIRM, we reviewed our records to determine if any
previous Letters of Map Change (LOMCs) (i.e., Letters of Map Amendment, Letters of Map
Revision) will be superseded when the revised FIRM panels referenced above become effective.
According to our records, no LOMCs were issued previously for the affected FIRM panels.
In addition to your community using the FrS to manage development in the floodplain, FEMA
will use the FIS to establish appropriate flood insurance rates. On the effective date ofthe
revised FIRM, actuarial rates for flood insurance will be charged for an new structures and
substantial improvements to existing structures located in the identified SFHAs. These rates may
be higher if structures are not built in compliance with the floodplain management standards of
the NFIP. The actuarial flood insurance rates increase as the lowest elevations (including
basements) of new structures decrease in relation to the BFEs established for your community.
This is an important consideration for new construction because building at a higher elevation
can greatly reduce the cost of flood insurance.
Communities that fail to enact the necessary floodplain management regulations will be
suspended fi.om participation in the NFIP and subject to the prohibitions contained in Section
202(a) ofthe Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (Public Law 93-234) as amended.
3. Showing evidence that regulations have previously been adopted that meet or exceed the
minimum requirements of Paragraph 60.3(d).
Adopting all ofthe standards of Paragraph 60.3(d) into one new, comprehensive set of
regulations; or
1. Amending existing regulations to incorporate any additional requirements of
Paragraph 60.3(d);
in order to establish initial eligibility in the NFIP . Your community can meet any additional
requirements by taking one ofthe following actions:

otherwise protected from flood damage. (Ord. No. 367, 3/17/87)
A. The flood hazard areas of the city 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.

28. "Water surface elevation" means the height, in relation to the National Geodetic Vertical
Datum (NGVD) of 1929 (or other datum, here specified), of floods of various magnitudes and frequencies
in the floodplains of coastal or riverain areas.
27. "Violation" means the failure of a structure of 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)(1O), (d)(3), (e)(4), or (e)(5) is presumed to be in violation until such time as that documentation
is provided; and
26, "Variance" means a grant of relief to a person from the requirements of this chapter when
specific enforcement would result in unnecessary hardship. A variance, therefore, permits construction or
development in a manner otherwise prohibited by this chapter. For fun requirements see Section 60.6 of
the National Flood Insurance Program regulations;
b. Any alteration of a structure listed on the National Register of Historic Places or a state
inventory of historic places;
a. Any project for improvement of a structure to comply with existing state or local
health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which are solely necessary to assure safe living
conditions; or
For the purpose of this definition "substantial improvement" is considered to occur when the first
alteration of any wall, ceiling, floor, or other structural part of the building commences, whether or not
that alteration affects the external dimensions of th~ structure. The tenn does not, however, include
either:
b. If the structure has been damaged and is being restored, before the damage occurred;
a. Before the improvement or repair is started; or
"Substantial improvement" means any repair, reconstruction, or improvement of a structure,
the cost of which equals or fifty percent (50%) ofthe market value of the structure either:
24. "Structureil means a walled and roofed building, including a gas or liquid storage tank, that is
principally above ground, as well as a manufactured home;
does not include land preparation, such as clearing, grading and filling; nor does it include the installation
of streets or walkways; nor does it include excavation of basement, footings, piers or foundations or the
erection of temporary fOnTIs; nor does it include the installation on the property of accessory buildings,
such as garages or shed not occupied as dwelling units or not part of the main structure;

DESIGNATION OF THE FLOODPLAIN ADMINISTRATOR
SECTION 12-412
The degree of flood protection required by this chapter is considered reasonable for regulatory
purposes and is based on scientific and engineering considerations. On rare occasions greater floods can
and will occur and flood heights may be increased by man-made or natural causes. This chapter does not
imply that land outside the areas of special flood hazards or uses permitted within such areas will be free
from flooding or flood damages. This chapter shall not create liability on the part of the community or
any official or employee thereof for any flood damages that result from reliance on this chapter or any
administrative decision lawfully made thereunder. (Ord. No. 367,3/17/87)
