AGENDA: 1. Approval of September 29, 2009 minutes

Presenter(s): Information Only: Action Taken/Committee Recommendation(s): Motion to approve the September 29, 2009 minutes with the correction of council member Hunt absent on “official City business”.

2. Screening for Outdoor Storage

Presenter(s): David Cossum Information Only: __X__

Action Taken/Committee Recommendation(s):

The briefing discussed screening for outside storage and questions raised such as: are current screening requirements adequate, are current parking requirements appropriate, are all districts which currently allow an outside storage used appropriately, are metal fences appropriate to meet screening requirements. The City Planning Commission (CPC) made several recommendations: strike outside storage as a permitted main use in the CA district, require outside storage to be screened in an IM district, limit maximum stacking height, add a landscape buffer requirement when screening fence is visible and within 200 feet of right-of-way, and reduce parking requirements to one space per 5,000 square feet of outside storage area.

3. Street Lighting – Process to Report & Repair Outages Presenter(s): Elizabeth Ramirez, Deborah Dennis, Rex Dennison & Mike Navarro

Information Only: __X__ Action Taken/Committee Recommendation(s): All lights are maintained by ONCOR, which creates a one stop shop. ONCOR maintains lights on public streets, repairs lights on failure, and keeps a database of outstanding and completed repairs. City Staff are responsible for resolving complaints on repeated calls or lack of service, enforces contract requirements, warrants and approves new installations, and patrols streets and freeways for outages. Property owners are responsible for lighting private properties for guard lights, alley lighting and security lighting. When reporting a street light outage it can be done either by calling 311 or online at www.oncorstreetlight.com. The new online system was launched on August 1, 2009 and allows customers the option to enter contact information and receive automated notification when repairs are completed. The intake screens also allow for history maintenance with each street light to be used to identify repeat failures. Future enhancements to the system will be made such as adding City-owned street light locations on maps and adding Tx-DOT owned street lights. Outage repairs are made by ONCOR contractors and are given required response times. Routine repairs are 5 days, circuit repairs are 15 days, and knockdowns are 30 days. ONCOR is not required to patrol for outages, yet the City of Dallas has signal maintenance technicians that are dedicated to patrolling during the night shifts. Only major streets and freeways are patrolled. Future actions include returning to the Quality of Life Committee with patrolling results, enhancements to ONCOR’s street light outage reporting system, and the status of new technologies related to energy savings and remote monitoring.

Urban Forest Inventory Using LiDAR & Hyperspectral Images

• Larger existing trees provide 60-70 times the benefit of newly planted trees

• Highest priority in managing any urban forest is a complete tree inventory

• Traditional method of inventory involves volunteers surveying only public trees

• These methods were very labor intensive, time consuming and often inaccurate

• Since public trees comprise only 15-20% of the entire urban forest, the traditional method only provides a small part of the picture

Project History

• Since a traditional survey was not ideal, extensive researched was completed which included hyperspectralimages (a new type of image)

• Dr. Fang Qiu was asked by the chair if the new images could be used for a complete tree inventory.

• “It may be possible…but it has never been done”• Chair works diligently to convince others of the value by

personally funding the field work portion of the project ($13K) and contributing almost a year of time

• Chair raises over $100K to complete the project• Chair authorized the project to move forward lacking

$30K of the required budget

Dallas on the “Cutting Edge”

• First complete tree inventory ever based on laser scanning and hyperspectral images using highly advanced computer algorithms

• New technology developed by Dr. Qiu and the chair which allows all tree inventory data to be easily accessed and utilized in makingcritical urban forest management decisions

• This is a first in the history of urban forestry in that someone can now effectively manage ALL trees (public & private) by simply sitting at their computer

• Hyperspectral images can also be used to manage water quality & quantity, street markings or light fixtures and many others relating to existing land cover management (grey & green infrastructure)

Cost and Next Steps

• The projected cost to complete all of the city is 1.25 million for collection and 1.25 million for processing

• When other city departments understand the potential use of the images in infrastructure management, the cost can be shared and become very economical

• As the use of hyperspectral images increases in the future, the cost will decrease

• Brief other departments on the potential uses

• Brief NCTCOG, EPA, Texas Forest Service and others to gain backing & financial support in completing a city & regional tree inventory & infrastructure mapping project

following phases: Katy Trail Phase III - from McCommas Boulevard to

Skillman Street Katy Trail Phase IV - from Skillman Street to the White Rock

Station Katy Trail Phase VI - from Ellsworth Avenue north to

Worcola Street (Mockingbird Pedestrian Bridge) Phase VI was separated from Phase III in 2006 due

to numerous issues related to the design of the grade separated crossing at Mockingbird Lane

Phases I, II, and V are complete

Katy Trail Phase IV – from Skillman to White Rock StationJoint project between City of Dallas and TxDOT Limits: from Skillman Street to the White Rock Station

(Approximately 2.5 miles) Scope: 12-ft wide concrete trail with four 12-ft wide pedestrian

bridges (Skillman, Abrams, Ridgewood Park, UPRR at Fisher) and passing zones along the Northwest Highway segment for the shared trail and alley

Current funding sources - $4,812,000 Federal share $3,849,600 (80%) Local share $962,400 (20%)

– 2006 bond program has $962,400 towards local share Current total estimated cost – $5.4 M, originally $4,812,000 Additional $588,000 is needed. We anticipate using the

contingency funds to fund this additional cost. Bidding may reduce the construction cost.

Purpose• Review plan for OneDAY Dallas transition

• Solicit Council input for outreach

3

Background• January 16, 2009

– Provided a memo to Council– Advised on successful implementation of Phase 1

and plans to initiate Phase 2 in February 2009

• April 15, 2009– Council briefing on Too Good To Throw Away– Update status and look to future phases

• August 19, 2009– Briefed Council on SAN budget– Included cost savings projected with OneDAY

What is OneDAY ?• Phase 1 of OneDAY started in Mar 2008 with

far north Dallas• Phase 2 followed in Feb 2009 in NW Dallas• Phase 3 intended to be NE Dallas

– Council approved citywide transition with FY10 budget

– Impacts approximately 180,000 households

• Cost Savings– FY10 $2.07M– FY11 $1.60M

• Transition to occur on March 1, 2010

5

Transition Plan: Component 1 - Route Development

• Assess current routes and service styles– 55% curbside and 45% alley– Truck types and sizes– Manpower– Special needs

• Use software to re-route

• Field check each route

• Finalize routes

(April 2009 – November 2009)

6

OneDAY Service Days

7


• Met with individual Council members in early November– reviewed new days of service– identifed locations where service changes

are needed– planned community meetings schedule

• Lessons learned about …– Carts set out on wrong day– Carts placed in wrong location– Missed calls spike..and then decrease… over a

6-week period

• Anticipate increase in recycling tonnage collected
