08 Archers for ChristAGENDA INFORMATION SHEET PROJECT: Provide direction to City Staff regarding the preparation of a new Lease Agreement between the City of Paris and the Archers for Christ for use of properties located at Lake Crook. BACKGROUND: The City of Paris has previously had an ongoing leasehold arrangement with the Archers for Christ organization for use of various tracts located at Lake Crook. Most recently, a five year extension of the Archers' prior lease expired on September 30, 2000. At that time, the City Council passed Resolution No. 2000-127, extending the Lease Agreement with the Archers for an additional one year term, beginning October 1, 2000, and ending September 30, 2001. The stated purpose of the one-year extension was to allow City Council time to consider the results of an ongoing Master Plan study for the use of Lake Crook and a short term lease was deemed appropriate to preserve the City's options with regard to implementing the Master Plan. Subsequently, the City Council took action to adopt what was referred to as Option Two in the Master Plan as designated by the Master Plan consultant. A copy of that Option Two is appended to this Agenda Information Sheet for the Council's review during the deliberation of this issue. The Archers' organization has now come forward requesting City Council consideration of a new lease agreement which they feel is consistent with the Master Plan. The Archers' actual proposal for the new lease agreement is included with this Agenda Information Sheet. DESCRIPTION: In contrast to the prior arrangement between the City and the Archers, the proposed Lease Agreement will allow the Archers to access some properties for their archery purposes not currently accessed, that being tracts designated three (3) and seven (7). The lease would be a twenty-year lease as proposed by the Archers, save and except a five year lease provision with a five year renewal for tract number one (1). The Archers have conceded the need to share the use of tract three (3) with the Paris Gun Club and tracts four (4) and five (5) with the Maxey Black Powder Club. Other details of the Archers' request are included in their proposal. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Also included in this agenda package is a copy of the Archers' prior long term lease as well as the current short term lease agreement. City Council is being requested to give guidance to City Staff regarding the terms and provisions of the new lease with the Archers For Christ organization for use of various tracts located at Lake Crook. This is the first opportunity for City Council to review the use of the properties at Lake Crook in light of Council's recent action approving the Master Plan for the Lake. Consequently, City Staff is seeking guidance as to the terms of any new lease agreement, the length of that lease agreement, and other related provisions to be assured of consistency with the intentions of City Council for the long term future use of the lake. Based on City Council's directions to City Staff with regard to the items requested in the Archers' proposal, Staff would return to City Council with a Lease Agreement reflecting Council's direction for approval at City Council's September 10, 2001, regular Council meeting. STAFF CONTACT: Terry Townsend, Dir. of Parks and Recreation; and Larry W. Schenk, City Attorney COST: The proposed Lease Agreement is for one dollar and other good and valuable consideration. SCHEDULE: The current Lease Agreement expires by its own terms on September 30, 2001. City Council is being requested to provide guidance to Staff on the terms and provisions of a future Lease Agreement with the Archers, such guidance to be provided at City Council's August 13,2001, regular Council meeting, with staff to return with a Lease Agreement reflecting those directions for consideration and approval at City Council's September 10, 2001, regular Council meeting. LOCATION: Various tracts located around Lake Crook as proposed by the Archers organization; a copy of a map detailing the location of those respective sites is included in this packet. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: See enclosed a copy of the portion of the Master Plan addressing Option Two; a copy of the Archers' proposal for an extended lease agreement; a copy of the Archers' prior and current Lease Agreements; and a copy of a map showing the respective locations of the various tracts included in the Archers' proposal. COUNCIL DATE: Consider for discussion and possible action regarding direction to City Staff at City Council's August 13, 2001, regular Council meeting, to be followed by the presentation of a formal Lease Agreement for consideration by City Council at the September 10, 2001, regular Council meeting. Memo To: From: Date: Subject: Larry Schenk, City Attorney Terry Townsend, Director of Public August 10, 2001 Considerations Regarding the Archers for Christ Lease Proposal on Lake Crook Consider a 10 year lease for zones 2, 4, 5, and 6 to the Archers for Christ, as designated on the official Lake Crook Map dated December 9, 1991, or a similar map revised in 1996. · The Paris Gun Club already has an exclusive lease in zone 3. The City retains zones I, 7, and 8 for public use. This would include continued development of the property in zone 8 and expanding the development to include the construction of various public trails for bikes, horseback riding and hiking in zones I and 7. These trail improvements would be inexpensive to provide and require little upkeep once they were utilized. The Council adopted Option 2 of the Lake Crook Master Plan. On page 26 of 45 this option identifies, "the expansion of a hiking and biking trail along the north shore, looping all the way around the dam and spillway and tying back into the developed south shore park. These trails would be cleared, unpaved paths through the woods with underbrush pulled back away from the trail for safety sake. In unusually steep creek crossing areas foot style bridges would be needed and culverts would be installed in major drainage paths. $ignage along the trail would identify location, mile markers, and hazards. Nature identification signs could be placed to point out flora and fauna encountered along the trail. Maintenance of the trail will be inexpensive but still required. Signs from time to time must be reset and brush continually cut back from the trail." Considering the expansion of trails on the north shore, hunting in this zone should be eliminated. 'frail development in zones 1 and 7 should cover the entire property, not merely 50 yards on either side of the existing road. Overlapping or sharing of the Paris Gun Club and Maxey Black Powder Club leases with the Archers for Christ lease has never been done before and doesn't seem appropriate. tt/ CC; Mike Malone, City Manager Archers for Christ-Lease Proposal For Lake Crook Area 1. 20 year lease for Zones I through 7, as designated on Official Lake Crook Map, dated December 9, 1991, and filed with this agreement. 2. %Ve could possibly have a 50 yd. Safety zone on both sides of the road on the North side (Zone 1), during hunting season, if dual use by the public is agreed to. Signs will be posted at the accesses to this area to warn the public that hunting is in progress and that by entering that area, they are responsible for their own safety. 3. All Archery hunters must be members of Archers for Christ, for both game conservation and safety purposes. Archers for Christ would close down the North side road (Zone 1) during the time frame of September 28 to January 5, each year for hunting season. Signs will be posted at the accesses to the area, warning the public that hunting is in progress and by entering the area, they are responsible for their own safety. 5. On weekends that Archers for Christ has tournaments on the northeast end of the North side road (near the dam) the road will be closed to non-participant~ for a period ofl0 hrs. Notification will be posted at both ends of the road several days prior to the closing, for public information. 6. No motorized vehicles, other than those of the City of Paris or Archers for Christ, will be allowed access to the North side lake road in Zone I and the peninsula road in Zone 4. These vehicles will be for the express use of performing maintenance on the part of the CiVy of Parls and for target set up, tournament transportation, and maintenance on the part of Arcbers for Christ. Only Archers for Christ authorized vehicles and their ATV's will be allowed on the paths or roads during hunting season. They may only be used for the recovery ofgame and also as transportation to and from hunting areas. 2 General Information 1.1 Commissioning The Study 1.2 Goals and Objectives of the Study 1.3 Methodology 1.4 Public Participation 1.4.1 Public Heatings 1.4.2 StaffParticipation 1.4.3 Comments and Interviews 1.4.4 Surveys 1.5 Government Restrictions A ~Use Study for ~ the City of Paris Lamar County, Texas on Lake Crook 1.5.1 1.5.2 1.5.3 1.5.4 1.5.5 Brief History 2.0.1 2.0.2 2.0.3 2.0.4 General Section 404 Permits Flood Plain Management Texas Department of Health National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) of Lake Crook Historical Need for the Lake Water Quality Lake Crook Data Early Development Attempts 2.1 Current Usage of the Lake Crook Property 2.1.1 Improvements 2.1.2 Access 2.1.3 Adjacent Land Uses 2.1.4 City Utilities 2.1.5 Leases on the Land 2.1.6 Hunting and Fishing 2.1.7 Other Uses Potential Uses of the Lake 3.1 Obstacles to Development 3.1.1 Water/Server Availability 3.1.2 Watershed Management 3.1.3 Legal Issues 3.1.4 Logistics to a Sale of Public Land 3.1.5 Campbell Soup 3.1.6 Water Clarity 3.2 Option 1- Low Density North Shore Development 3.2.1 Description of Option 1 3.2.2 Recommendations Concerning Option 1 3.3 Option 2 - Full Recreational Development Plan 3.3.1 Description of Option 2 3.3.2 What About Golf?. Cit~ of Paris Stud~' of Lake Crook March, 2001 3.2.2 Recommendations Concerning Option 1. The consultant, recognizing that the plan has significant envkonmental attraction to it by preserving vast amounts of ground for wildlife habitat, cannot support Option 1 as configured now. The cost per lot is too high to make it a viable project. We could support the project more if the West Shore part of this option were not included due to the poor access along the county road. Soil conditions and high water table make it difficult to maintain a high quality, heavy trafficked road along the wetlands on both sides of Caviness Road. Since it is not in the city limits, but borders the city limits, it is unlikely the county will expend vast amounts of money to upgrade this road. We further could support Option 1 if the development of the commercial tract ~vould be deleted fi'om consideration and left in a natural state for several years to come. Without the West Shore development, the commercial tract development would be seriously impeded. Whereas private roads on the north shore could reduce initial costs of construction and defer city maintenance of paving and drainage for years to come, we believe the citizens are not best served by prohibiting free and uninterrupted use of a road along the shoreline. A north shore development should be designed to later extend streets and utilities north into other lands when these other tracts are developed. Finally, if the west shore and the commercial tract were not developed, we can support the concept ofrene~ving leases to the gun and archery clubs feeling they would no longer be a hazard to any nearby homes. 3.3 OPTION 2 - FULL RECREATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 3.3.1 Description of Option 2. This option provides for the immediate development of certain tracts of land, especially the south shore park, as formal pad( improvements with improved fishing piers, campgrounds, playgrounds, group picnic shelters, family picnic shelters and tables. Other areas would be let~ undeveloped and promoted as wildlife habitat and hunting property. The archery and gun clubs could retain their leases and ranges under this option with some restrictions. Longer leases (twenty or more years) would encourage these clubs to make more meaningful investments into the property in time and money. Short term leases (year to year) will discourage this investment entirely. Expansion of a hiking/biking trail along the north shore is shown in this option, looping all the way around the dam and spillway and tying back into the developed south shore park. These trails would Page 26 of 45 Cit~ of Paris Study of Lake Crook March, 2001 be cleared, unpaved paths through the ~oods with underbrush pulled back away from the trail for safety sake. In some unusually steep creek crossings areas foot-style bridges Would be needed and culverts would be installed in major drainage paths. Signage along the trail would identify location, mile marker, and hazards. Nature identification signs could be placed to point out flora and fauna encountered along the trail. Maintenance of the tra'fl will be inexpensive but still required. Signs fi.om time to time must be re-set and brush continually cut back fi.om the trail. In the past decade, the Archers for Christ have leased much ofthls property for bow hunting and for trail type target shooting. Under optlon 2, Archers for Christ could occaslonally use the north shore for the same activity but with time constraints. Special events could be staged but when the events are over the park reverts back to full public use. Areas used by the archers west of Caviness Road would remain unimproved and available for hunting and target shooting by the Archers with fewer restrictions. There need be no 'time sharing' of this portion of the Lake Crook habkat. The Wild Turkey Federation has expressed an interest in re-populating the north and western shores o f Lake Crook with turkey if there are no residences built under the approved development plan. In the public opinion surveys, several individuals suggested the need for wilderness camping areas for scouts and other groups to use. Our opinion is that the peninsula of land jutting between the two fmgers of Lake Crook would be ideal for such a camp. Access to proposed restrooms and parking lots can be controlled at Caviness Road to reduce unauthorized use. The wilderness camp could have minimal improvements such as earth paths and nature trails which are not expensive to construct. The north shore between the dam and F.M. 1499 is proposed in Option 2 in the long term as another large, well improved public park perhaps several years after the south shore development is completed. There is adequate room, between 100 and 200 acres, abutting F.M. 1499 to construct numerous group picnic shelters and looping park roads. A north shore boat ramp and fishing pier will eventually be needed and an excellent site for an amphitheater exists already. A large rustic playground structure would be a welcome addition to this park as the population of Paris expands northward. We have included in Option 2 an RV campground currently shown in the south shore park but conceivably this RV campground could be placed on the north shore instead where access to U.S. 271 is much easier and where there would be little interference with other day users as there would be in the south shore park. Our experience with these type campgrounds shows that with very little advertising such a campground can attract overflow fi.om state and federal parks. We recommend controlled access and preferably a full-time lake/campground caretaker, perhaps even certified as a peace officer or warden. The caretaker should reside at the park or near the dam and oversee payment ofcamp'mg fees, maintenance of improvements, and watch out for illegal or ill advised activities on the land or in the water. A similar development on Lake Hawkins in Wood County catches overflow fi'om Tyler State Park and nets the county some $60,000 per Page 27 of 45 Cit~ of Paris Stud~, of Lake Crook March, 2001 year. Unattended campgrounds, howevdr, are not recommended. A well-built RV campground will also require bath house and restrooms on-site. In fact all of the soutl~'shore park needs restroom facilities which are light and clean. Controlling access to the park, careful selection of'building materials, and a full-time lake caretaker will minimize vandalism to these structures. Package aerobic wastewater treatment systems with subsurface disposal fields are recommended for use with bath houses and restrooms. Table of Advantages versus Disadvantages for O ~tion 2 1. Preservation of the land for future generations 2. Development costs can be shared through grants from various agencies 1. Loss of the revenues from the sale of land. 2 Loss of tax revenues from developed lots. 3. Lessees get to keep thek leases for 3. Costs of development with little revenue archery and gun shooting to offset the costs 4. Recreational benefits afibrded the whole 4. Loss of water/sewer revenues from a city and not just a few developers and developed subdivision residents 5. Tourist draw for campgrounds and 5. Cost of developing and maintaining special events, adequate access routes into the park. 6. Opens the property up to traffic and 6. Maintenance costs exceed city's present reduces criminal activity and vandalism, ability to maintain high level parks; additional staffing needed. If the city is to adequately open the south shore to formal park development replete with campgrounds and picnic facilities for hundreds of persons at one time, the access roads to the site must be improved. We have included in this section the cost of improving the park as well as the cost of improving each of three access routes. At least one million dollars will be necessary if ail three routes are widened and resurfaced. With respect to priority, the improvement to Lake Crook Road is the highest priority and CR 32900 and NW 19~h Street tie for second priority. The access to NW 190' Street should be opened up even if it must be gated for night time security. Daytime traffic fromNW 19~' Street and Lake Crook Road will be essential to deter crime and illegal dumping in the area. Improvements to existing boat ramps and fishing piers is recommended. An additional fishing pier is recommended on the north shore when that park is eventually developed. Several Page 28 of 45 respondents to the survey mentioned co~tructing an indoor fishing pier hut on Lake Crook. We favor the idea o~y if the city hires a full-time caretaker for the property. 3.3.2 What about golf?. Several participants mentioned golf as a possible use of Lake Crook lands. While economic development grants and Texas Parks and Wildlife grants could be used to partially fund golf courses, such courses after they are built must be self supporting. A golf course with modest club house costs between $3.0 million and $4.0 million. Industry pundits say 36,000 rounds of golf per year are necessary to support such a course. If the city were to elect to build a course there is certainly enough land on which to do it. Only about 200 acres or so is needed for a quality golf course, the terrain is excellent and there is certainly abundant supply of water. An 18-hole golf course needs about 1 rrfillion gallons of water per day during grown-in and about half that much during the growing season upon reaching maturity. Alternatively, [fa public course is not built, most developer-experts agree that 1,000 acres of well planned subdivision will usually support a golf course through the homeowners' dues, trail use fees, guest fees and enhanced lot sales prices. It is commonly considered the best of all worlds to intertwine the golf course routing plan ~vith the subdivision plan to take advantage of fairway lots, green lots and tee box lots as well as lakeffont and lakeview lots. In the present north shore property, to install a golf course would largely destroy the potential for home building and vice versa. The shape of the property with its numerous comers and narrows, would result in an inefficiency for high lot counts. Therefore, in order to get 1,000 acres on the north shore, an enterprising developer would have to acquire some of the adjacent, privately owned land. it is beyond the scope of this study to analyze the development ofprlvate golf courses. In these days of privatlzation, ~ve are seeing more courses being taken out of the public domain than are being built into it. There are companies that specialize in nothing but golf course feasibility studies. While there may be some study out there, we have yet to see a study done where the golf course was not proven 'feasible'. We choose to believe, however, golf course ownersb3p is not a business the City of Paris should get into. Page 29 of 45 ©.~ @ Q Cit~ of Paris Stud~t, pf Lake Crook March, 2001 3.3.3 Recommendations Concerning ~ption 2. While certainly the least expensive 'first cost' of the three development options, Option 2 is not without its long term costs. The loss of nearly $4.0 million in revenue from land sales is nothing to be taken lightly. The significance of estimated taxes to all taxing entities fi.om Option 1 ($1.1 million annually) and Option 3 ($4.2 million annually) cannot be overlooked by even the most zealous conservationist. The development of the south shore for public park use is an essential element of all three development options. It is the nature of north shore and west shore developments that rentain in question. We do not believe that under Option 2 thc city should allow control of so much of the public land to rest with one entity, that is, Archers for Christ. As much as we may agree with their charter and purpose, to withhold five to seven hundred acres of land fi.om the public does not seem to be good public policy. Under Option 2, each of the gun or archery clubs would have fLxed, hard boundary leases covering what they need for target ranges and clear zenes as well as improvements to the land such as parking lots, storehouses and meeting rooms. For thc balance of the property, we favor a shared use where Archers for Christ and shotgun hunters can use the property outside their fixed boundary leases during specific competitions or hunts but not to the exclusion of the public the rest of the year. Proper installation of gates and signs along the hike/bike trail and around the perimeter of other property can signal the public that there are special events being held and to refrain from nsing the trail that day. The development of a formal south shore park and eventually a north shore park will require the expansion of park maintenance staff within the city and the purchase of more vehicles and equipment for their use. For this reason, we have not recommended the full formal development of Lake Crook as a public park like Whiterock Lake is to Dallas or Town Lake is to Austin. As attractive as paved jogging trails and wide, open, closely cropped grassy fields may be, the Paris city staffwould simply be overwhelmed by the manpower and money needed to maintain such a park. A large natural habitat park requiring very little maintenance is ideal for most of the property under this Option 2. Option 2 is, in our opinion, a better short term plan for the next five to ten years. Parts of Options 1 and 3 where residential development is contemplated may be desirable the future. We do the elements of Options I through. 3 as being mutually exclusive. .., .. There is a lot of land out there!

The facts as we interpret them are these: The estimated cost of development of single family homes on the north shore does not appear to render such development practical at this time without local government subsidy or possibly variances from subdivision codes. Were the cost of development and mtbsequently the price of lots found to be affordable, the financial benefits to the city would be enormous over the next twenty years assuming a tremendously ~tccessful marketing effort and fuH btdld out of the development. Tt e costs of domg noth.~g ~r ht le seemmgly bentgn are actttally enormous al~d growing given the #me-value of money. There appear to be insurmountable legal, political and logistical obstacles, itl our op#tioth to 'giving mvay' the land The development o fa formally developed park setting for the et~tire property, while it~itially affordable to conslruct, wouldplace an incredible burden on staff lo maintaia sttch a park. Dredging of Lake Crook is far too expensive to be cost effective now. 5.0.3 Recommendations. Because of these fmdings, we propose the following recommendations for the development of Lake Crook. Lake Crook should be developed as a mixed use eventually but in the near future (five to seven years) should remain as park land and open space. Land considered for development should only include the north shore between the dam and Caviness Road. The city, should pursue matching grants through the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to construct formal park improvements such as tables, fishing piers, and campgrounds; set aside land as dedicated open space and habitat park land; and preserve wetlands; on the south and part of the west shore. The city should endeavor to improve access to the south shore park by first upgrading Lake Crook Road and then other city .roads and encourage Lamer County to improve or cooperate in improving nearby county roads. NW 19~ Street should eventually be opened into the completed park but gated overnight. Page 42 of 45 Cit~ of Paris Stud~ of Lake Crook March, 2001, The city should renew leases with Archers for Christ which currently has no lease and later with Maxey Black Powder Rifle Club and Pads Gun Club (as those leases expke in 2003 and 2005).' Longer term leases (up to twenty five years) will encourage capital expenditures in this area. The leases should be more restrictive than current leases as far as acreage and boundades are concerned. In eventually developing the north shore, ,we recommend the city NOT participate except as seller to the highest bid but set out deed restrictions or pass ordinances to regulate the use of land adjacent to the lake. Because of the possible requkements for a referendum to sell public park land, we see the following chain of events: a. The city advertises and receives bids for the purchase of a defined parcel with the city's requirements for restrictions. b. The successful high bidder is allowed a period of say three to slx months to do due diligence, seek financing and prepare a land use plan acceptable to the city; c. The land plan is agreed to by the city planning and zoning authorities and the council; d. The authority to sell the land is submitted to the voters. e. The property is conveyed with appropriate covenants and restrictions. A system of hiking/bikin~walklng trails on the north shore and south shore similar to what is shown in Option 2 should be commenced. Use of these areas for archery and hunting should be permitted under seasonal use or special events but not to unduly restrict others from entering the property when it can be done safely. The city should hire a caretaker/warden with the completion of early improvements to the south shore park to protect the city's investment. The city should come to grips with its vandalism and criminal activity image at Lake Crook by: a. Increasing police presence at the lake. b. Use vandal resistant materials for all construction c. Adopt the use of newer and cheaper television recorders to catch vandals in the act. d. Improve lighting at piers and boat ramps. e. Remove any signs of vandal attack as soon'as discovered. The city should "adopt and attack" the south shore park development priority llst shown below: , Page 43 of 45 Cit~ of Paris ~tud~, of Lake Crook March, 2001 SOUTH SHORE PARK RECOMMENDED EVIPROVEMENTS 1 : Repair damaged fishing pier; replace missing boards; add hand rails ASAP and ladders; improve access to fishing piers with hard surfaced walks; light piers. 2 Increase police patrols of the park; offer rewards for information on ASAP vandals; 3 Publicize the park more and increase traffic by offering special ASAP events; 4 Continue to underbrush and open up the tree canopy; remove dead continuous trees and low lying Ih-nbs; 5 Add more picnic tables, concrete pads, trash barrels and cook tops 2001 6 Add security lighting and security cameras 2002 7 Install Iockable, vandal resistant restrooms with aerobic treatment 2002 system; install potable water system and water fountains 8 Construct playground and cushioned play surface 2002 9 Begin to pave roads in the park beginning with the primary entry 2003 road and branching offto the boat ramps; add lighted tie-up docks on one side of each boat ramp. 10 Begin the hike/bike unimproved trails along the south shore line 2003 where the road is closed for the present; provide better signage. 11 Construct an enclosed fishing shelter and expand the fishing pier 2004 12 Hire a caretaker/warden and install an on-site residence 2004 13 Construct tent camping sites near the shore line 2005 14 Construct paved connection to NW 19t~ Street with gate 2005 15 Construct RV campgrounds with utility connects and bath house 2006 16 Complete paving of all park roads and parking areas 2008 10. The city should certainly keep its options open on the north shore allowing golf course, residential or commercial developers the opportunity to analyze for themselves the feasibility of developing those lands. There could come a time when conditions are ripe for such private investment. We do not concur that the time is here and now! Page 44 of 45 Cit~ of Paris Stud~' of I,ake Crook March, 2001 6.0 ~ CONCLUSION 6.0.1. General. The 2,700 acre Lake Crook property is an asset with a fabulous potential and like Linus said to Charlie Brown in the "Peanuts" comic strip, "There is no greater burden than a great potential. " From public participation, interviews and meetings we clearly see there is no consensus in Paris on what to do with this potential. In a very clearly worded survey question, the overwhelming majority of Paris citizens do not want the city to sell surplus property now. Likewise, the majority of respondents want the city to do something to improve the Lake Crook land. As professional engineers and land planners we quickly see the vision of a beautiful row of waterfront homes and a shoreline drive road that provides even the non-residents with a spectacular view of the lake. On the other hand, as conservationists we see the beauty in raw, undisturbed land ~vith turkey, water fowl, and deer along the shore. The best of both worlds would be some of each. We have provided three different development concepts and one non-development concept for the City of Paris. We mistakenly call them options whereas they are not options at all.., they are concepts. The term"options" in,plies a plan with no flexibility whatsoever. We actually favor and recommend a blend of these concepts. Consulting Engineer and Planner, Calvin T.
