He stated that the City faced a crisis with the B-36 Peacemaker Museum at Meacham International Airport.

He referred to the City's Comprehensive Plan and the museum's contribution to that plan to preserve the City's history and heritage in aviation. He outlined plans for the museum and expressed concern with a letter from the City advising the organization's lease at the airport was somewhat tenuous. He emphasized that the City had an obligation to keep their promise to provide the area for the museum and added that the organization would like to continue to stay in its current location. He suggested that with the quarter million dollars that was donated by Four Sevens Gas Company to drill under the airport, which he understood was a gift for furtherance of aviation history and heritage, that some of the money be used for the B-36 Peacemaker Museum.

He stated that without the JNRB and Lockheed, Fort Worth would not be the City it was today. He asked that the City find a way to fund an aviation museum and allow the B-36 Peacemaker Museum to remain at its current location. Council Member Silcox stated that he appreciated the presentation and that he supported the initiative of the museum. He expressed concern that if the City moved the museum from its current location, where would the museum go. He added that the City's general fund included over a half a million dollars funding for the Fort Worth Herd which was an important part of Fort Worth. He added that the City was lacking in a venue that promoted aviation history and that the City should find a way to fund the museum. CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 16, 2007 PAGE 20 of 23 Council Member Jordan stated that in August 2007, the Council asked the staff to form an Aviation History Heritage Task Force, which was currently in the process of being established. He pointed out the population of retired armed service members in the City and the discussions staff had conducted with Mr. Van Romans of the Science and History Museum, as well as others in the aviation history, and that in November of this year at the Infrastructure and Transportation Committee, there would be a presentation on the task force to seek out a way for the City to take advantage of the history of aviation. He added that the presentation would include suggestions on how to bring various aviation groups together to create a world-class, Smithsonian type museum for the City. He asked that if anyone had questions on the November meeting to please contact Mr. Tom Higgins, Economic and Community Development Director.

Mr. Picht requested that the B-36 organization be included as part of the task force. Mayor Pro tem Hicks requested that Mr. Picht speak with Mr. Higgins about the task force. Kathy Gregory Ms. Kathy Gregory, 2501 Gravel Drive, representing S&K Management, Inc., an agent for Riverbend Business Park, appeared before Council in opposition of a proposed sexually oriented business (SOB) on Trinity Boulevard and East Loop 820 North. She stated that the tenants of this property had expressed concern with the SOB relative to operating hours and its customers. She pointed out that some of the customers would most likely be leaving this type of establishment during the time tenants of the business park were arriving for work and that several tenants had informed her that they would no longer lease at the business park if the SOB was allowed to open. She asked how the restricted distance was measured from the SOB to a restricted use such as a childcare center, which was located in the business park. Ms. Sarah Fullenwider, Assistant City Attorney, explained that the distance was measured from the property line of the proposed business to the property line of the protected use. CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 16, 2007 PAGE 21 of 23 Council Member Scarth inquired if a daycare center was listed as a protected use under the City's ordinance. Ms. Fullenwider stated that schools were listed as protected uses, but not daycare centers. Eddie Griffin Mr. Eddie Griffin, 1120 E. Davis, also appeared before Council in opposition of the proposed SOB. He explained that SOBS were now encroaching on residential areas when, at one time, they were only allowed outside the City limits. He added that the City did not need any more SOBS as they reduced property value and did not elevate society. He emphasized that what the City needed was additional schools. Ken Taylor Mr. Ken Taylor, 2245 E. Loop 820 North, representing Junior's Junction Daycare Center, appeared before Council in opposition to the proposed SOB. He stated that he was speaking on behalf of the parents of the children at the daycare center who did not want the SOB located near the daycare center. He referred to a letter from Ms. Sandra Knight to Council Member Scarth expressing concern about the proposed SOB and that Council Member Scarth's reply was that there was no technical reason for the City to deny the business. He requested that the City do whatever was necessary to prevent the business from locating in the area. David Ragan Mr. David Ragan, 7501 Bridges Avenue, Richland Hills, Texas, Mayor of the City of Richland Hills, appeared before Council in opposition of the proposed SOB. He read a letter on behalf of the Richland Hills City Council and citizens expressing their concerns as follows: • If constructed, the business would be less than a quarter mile from the Richland Hills City limits which would threaten their quality of life and pose a threat to the safety and security of residents and children. • The subject use of the property laid at a major gateway to the Richland Hills Trinity Railway Express Commuter Rail Station. Mayor Ragan emphasized that the proposed use would have a negative impact on future development in the area and requested the Council rezone the area to a use more compatible with surrounding neighborhoods to prohibit similar businesses being permitted. Council Member Scarth advised that the Council did not have a lot of authority in making decisions whether the permit for one of these establishments was issued a permit or not, but an administrative process was in place. He pointed out that there also would not be a public hearing, vote by the City Council and CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 16, 2007 PAGE 22 of 23 no zoning change required. He added that this was one of the most highly litigated issues regarding land use and generally the City had made every attempt to develop restrictions to regulate the establishment of SOBS. City Attorney Yett stated that the courts had advised that cities cannot ban these uses outright or even take steps that would effectively support a ban by adopting unrealistic distance regulations. He added that what the courts had advised was that cities could regulate to a certain extent, the location of the businesses and the way they operate. He further stated that the First Amendment would not allow the City to ban this type of business and that the City had adopted regulations concerning the location and operation of these businesses. Ms. Fullenwider explained that in 2004 a new ordinance was adopted to regulate SOBS and the City now restricted them from operating within 1,000 feet from a religious institution, park, school and residences, including the cultural district, downtown district, Stockyards, NEZs, PIDs and TIFs. She added that SOBS could also not operate within 1,500 feet of IH-35. She advised that the owner had placed a sign on the property stating his intent to open the SOB 60 days prior to filing an application; however, the City had not received an application for the business and therefore had not verified the distance. Council Member Davis inquired what zoning category SOBS were authorized to operate. Ms. Fullenwider stated they were allowed within "I" Industrial. Council Member Davis asked that Council be provided information next week on what the Comprehensive Plan reflected in terms of zoning in this area. Mayor Pro tem Hicks stated that she shared the frustration on this issue and the fact that there was not a lot that the City could do in this instance. She stated that the Council was very proactive at City-initiated rezoning and worked with property owners to rezone property to compatible uses. Mayor Pro tem Hicks stated that she was asked to make the announcement that the Lights on After School program would be conducted on October 28, 2007, from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. outside City Hall.
