site, ingress/egress to the property, parking lot areas,
and landscaping, dumpster location, and fire lanes.
Mr. Kavanaugh described the type of business to be
conducted at this location. He explained that this was
a quick service type facility that would change automobile
fluids, such as motor oil, lubricate your car, and change
out filters while the customer remained in his car. He
pointed out that there would not be any major car repair
or a gasoline purchase at this facility.
Mr. Kavanaugh advised that since this facility is

section of Jupiter Road and State Highway 5, the need to
designate the entrance and exit to this facility, how the
oil would be collected from the cars and how it would be
disposed of, how the oil products would be stored in the
facility, what the screening construction of the dumpster
would consist of and the need to have it be made of brick
or masonry, and the use of the design of the exit to deter
people from trying to enter the facility off of State Highway
5. The Council also discussed that this facility was to
be used only for the changing of any car fluids and filters
and for lubrication of the automobile.

Review Staff Research and
Consider Approving a Process for
Development of Controls on
Private Clubs Within the City. (Agenda Item VIII)
Bill Petty, Director of Community Development, spoke before
the Council on the research compiled by city staff regarding
private clubs and a proposed process for developing controls
for private clubs in the city.
Mr. Petty advised that information had been obtained
from the cities of Garland, Plano, Carrollton, Rockwall,
and Irving and that some of the common provisions had been:
1. Geographic regulation
2. Food/beverage ratio
3. Operational regulations
4. Minimal seating requirements
5. Site plan and interior design requirements
Mr. Petty stated that the city staff's recommendation
was that members from the City Council and the Planning and
Zoning Commission be appointed to a subcommittee to study
the information provided and state law and prepare a recom-
mendation to be considered by the Planning and Zoning Com-
mission and the City Council.
There was considerable discussion by the Council on
whether the city staff should just prepare an ordinance
and bring it back for consideration, what position the
city should take if requests come before the city for
consideration before a policy on private clubs is completed,
the Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission working
together in a workshop to review the information, setting
an early date for a meeting on this process, why it has
taken so long to bring this information to the Council for
consideration, and scheduling the meeting for January since
this time of the year is so busy.
It was the consensus of the City Council that a meeting
be scheduled for a workshop session of the City Council and
the Planning and Zoning Commission for Tuesday, January 7,
1986, at 7:00 p.m., at the Municipal Annex,to review the
information and discuss the process for private clubs in
the city. City Council also directed the city staff to
provide the Planning and Zoning Commission with the infor-
mation that the Council had been provided and any other
information that the city staff could obtain. City Staff
is to also draft a formal ordinance to be reviewed and dis-
cussed at this workshop session.
Selection Process for
City Flag (Agenda Item IX -A)
City Secretary Marty Hendrix advised the Council that
the idea of a city flag had been presented at the Council's
budget retreat in August. Ms. Hendrix stated that the
city staff was recommending that the flag be made a part
of the Sesquicentennial Celebration in 1986 and be presented
some time during that year. The city staff was also recom-
mending that the Sesquicentennial Committee be contacted and
have someone do a flag design or designs and then make a
recommendation to the Council on the design of the city flag.
In discussion on this process, it was the consensus of
the City Council that the Sesquicentennial Committee proceed
with the soliciting of a design(s) and make a recommendation
to the City Council on the design of a city flag to be pre-
sented during the Sesquicentennial Celebration in 1986.
