DISCUSSION
On September 29 1998 (M&C C-24780) City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into a Land
Dedication Agreement with Hillwood Development Corp and accept a three acre site at the northeast
corner of Old Denton Road and SH 170 for the construction of the new Fire Station 38 The agreement
further stated that if subsequent to the date of the agreement, the designated site was determined to be
unsatisfactory to either party that a 'mutually acceptable and reasonably comparable alternate site would
be identified The 1998 bond program approved $1 800 000 to construct and equip the new Fire Station
38
In 2003 the Fire Department implemented a computerized response time simulator that indicated that a site
to the southwest of the site originally designated would significantly improve response times to the
residential density being developed south of SH 170 City staff worked with Hillwood and identified a site at
the southeast corner of Park Vista Blvd.. and Westport Parkway that is acceptable to both Hillwood and the
City Park Vista Blvd must be widened from two to four lanes to provide ingress and egress for the station
Even though this is a cost that would not be incurred at the original site considered Hillwood agreed to
cause the road widening of Park Vista Blvd at its expense As a part of the terms of this modification to the
original agreement, however Hillwood will require the City to participate in the addition of two lanes to
Westport Parkway (estimated cost of up to $100 000) for the approximately 350' of that road bordering the
fire station site when the property immediately to the east of the fire station site is developed Hillwood
states that currently there is nothing in the works to develop that property and' that there is no way of
predicting at what point in time such development will occur
