Mrs. Pat Suter, 1002 Chamberlain, said that while there were several months in which police
officers patrolled Hans Suter Park, the police have not been in evidence recently and undesirable and
criminal activity is again occurring. In addition, she said people are using a seine to take shrimp out
of the channel to sell it. She said a sign is needed at the street regarding authorized personnel only
as well as a sign asking people not to seine there. She said they would also like a video camera to
be installed at the park.
Mr. Johnny French, 4417 Carlton, said that for about two years at his own cost he has been
maintaining plants at Hans Suter Park, many of which are being stolen. He asked the city to place
signage indicating that taking the plants is a theft.
Responding to Council Member Garrett, Mrs. Suter said that the area she was requesting a
sign for is directly across from the Oso Wastewater Treatment Plant. She said they need police patrol
cars to make a pass through the park so as to establish a police presence there.
Mr. J.E. O'Brien, 4130 Pompano, asked about the status of the Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report, which is scheduled to be published on March 21, 2000. He said one of the many
problems the Finance Department appeared to be having is that their bank reconciliations were not
done in a timely manner, which was an issue raised in the 1996 audit management letter.
Mr. R.F. Hasker, 1813 Wallace, said that while most people would not begrudge the Council
from having comfortable chairs to sit in during their long meetings, he said they should have used
more discretion in selecting the chairs.
Mr. Leon Perez, 904 Buford, said that the businesses of local shrimpers are suffering because
of requirements such as turtle excluder devices.
Mr. Abel Alonzo, 1701 Thames, said that when he first heard about the Cotmcil members'
new chairs he was a little angry; however, he understands how painful it can be to have to sit in a
chair for many hours at a time. He said he is tired of a minority of people controlling the Conncil's
agenda with negative rhetoric every week. He wondered what changes could have been brought
about if those people had put their energy into positive efforts.
Mr. Foster Edwards, Chief Executive Officer of the Corpus Ch~sti Association of Realtors,
said there are people in the community who only think about the past and the present but who have
a limited perspective and outlook. He encouraged the Council to reject that outlook and to continue
to invest in the future.
Mayor Neat called for consideration of the consent agenda (Item 3-11 ). City Secretary Chapa
said that Council Member Scott had filed a disclosure affidavit and would be abstaining from
discussing or voting on Item 9. Council members requested that Item 11 be withheld for discussion.

Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 16, construction of temporary facilities at the airport.
Ms. Bonnie Allin, Director of Aviation, said the temporary facilities will be coustmcted
during the spring and summer and will be completed in about July, at which time staff will be
bidding the major portion of the contract--demolition and rebuilding of 90% of the terminal
complex. She said the engineers and staff have spent a great deal of time planning the facilities to
minimize the impact on airport customers.
Ms. Allin then described a diagram of the temporary facilities. She noted that a temporary
baggage claim area will be built to the west (it is now located on the east side) with a covered canopy
connecting it. She said customers will enter the same ticket lobby at the front of the terminal.
Southwest Airlines will be moving their ticket connter into an already completed area between
Continental and Delta. In addition, the airlines will remain where they are at their gates. The whole
terminal renovation project is expected to be completed by Thanksgiving 2002. Ms. Allin introduced
the members of the Airport Board who were present. Them were no comments from the audience.

Mayor Neal opened discussion on Item 17, improvements to Spur 3, Phase 2. City Secretary
Chapa read a proposed amendment to substitute the figure $194,820 for the figure of $118,320 in
each place it appears in the resolution (Item 17.a.) and the ordinance (Item 17.b.). Council Member
Betty Jean Longofia made a motion to amend Items 17.a~ and 17.b. as stated, seconded by Council
Member Scott, and passed.
Mayor Neat called for comments from the audience.
Mr. J.E. O'Brien questioned the validity of the argument that borrowing these funds from
the Utility Department saves the city money. He said it would appear that interest rates will be
increasing in the future, and he asked what is the physical process for getting the loan money out of
the Utility DepmU~ent and into the Street Bond Fund. Mr. O'Brien also questioned whether the
certificates of obligation are being paid back with taxpayer dollars. He said the proper vote on this
ordinance is "No."
City Manager Garcia replied that it does cost the city less money to do this type of financing
than to borrow the money directly. He explained that the Utility Fund will be paid back with interest.
City Attorney Bray added that this proposal is legal and staff recommends it because it saves the
taxpayers money and the Utility Fund is made whole. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for
their votes as follows:
17.a. RESOLUTION NO. 023961

Mayor Neat opened discussion on Item 18, police grants. There were no audience comments.
Responding to Council Member John Longofia, ChiefAlvarez said that minors in possession
cases are Class C misdemeanors and are prosecuted through Municipal Court. However, if the Texas
Alcoholic Beverage Commission makes the arrest, they go through the Justice of the Peace courts.
The Police Chief said they plan to undertake several objectives with this grant, including prosecuting
those who illegally sell and purchase alcoholic beverages and establishing an educational program
for both minors and the owners of business establishments through the DARE program and TABC's
Project SAVE program. City Secretary Chapa polled the Council for their votes as follows:

Mayor Neat called for the City Manager's report. Mr. Garcia announced that some city staff
members had received recognitions and appoinlments. Chief Judge Rudy Tamez has been appointed
to serve on the State Judiciary Panel, which consists of 22 judges from around the state. Mr. Tony
Cisneros, Director of Park and Recreation, has been appointed by Gov. George W. Bush to serve on
a newly formed task force called the State Conservation Task Force, which is designed to
recommend strategies for conserving Texas natural resources. In addition, the city received two
awards from the Corpus Christi Advertising Federation for the "Issues and Answers" program and
for the "Stop Trashing Corpus Christi" public service announcement. Also, the city received a
citation of excellence for its "Clean Up Corpus Christi" program, which was a series of public
service announcements on brush collection, visual obstructions, and tree pruning.
Mayor Neat called for Council concerns and reports.
Mr. Longoria referred to an article in the local newspaper about Girl Scouts who could not
sell their cookies during a recent IceRays game. He suggested that staff approach the concessionaire
at Memorial Coliseum about the possibility of letting youth organizations such as the Girl Scouts
participate there. Mr. Garcia said several incidents have occurred recently with that concessionaire
and he has asked staff to review the contract with the idea of addressing some of those concerns.
Mr. Garrett and Ms. Cooper commended Mr. Angel Escobar, Director of Engineering
Services, and city staff for the information they provided during a meeting at Meadowbrook
Elementary on February 281h.
Mr. Scott said he had the same thoughts as Mr. Longoria about the Girl Scout cookie sales
at Memorial Coliseum.

Mr. Colmenero suggested that staff look at other city concession contracts and how they
relate to non-profit organiTntions. He said Mr. Garcia had included a report in the weekly transmittal
about the Columbus ships and he requested that staff give the Council an official presentation about
the status of the ships. He said the Council should look at the whole scenario.
Mr. G-arcia asked for clarification on Mr. Colmenero's request regarding the Columbus ships.
The City Manager said the Council had discussed the ships' legal liability and finances in closed
session. He said Council members had several questions regarding the true operation of the ships and
the reason the fleet closed down. Consequently, he provided the information in the Manager' s Report
to reiterate to the Council the substantial deficits that were accruing when the ships closed, as well
as some of the difficulties associated with assuming responsibility for the ships. Mr. Garcia said
staffs recommendation continues to be that the city not insert itself into that situation.
Mr. Colmenero said it is important that the Council be completely informed about the issue
of the Columbus ships, and he does not think they have fully discussed it in closed session or in open
session.
Dr. Gonzales said he agreed with Mr. Colmenero that the Council should be made aware of
what happened. He said they do not know what caused the Columbus ships project to fail. He said
he is not asking the Council to make any decisions, adding that they have already decided they do
not want the city to be liable for the ships. However, they want to know if there is some oppommity
for the city to take over the ships and what that cost would be so they can inform the public.
Mr. Colmenero said the Council needs to embrace the issue of the ships in the same way that
the conunity embraced them so they can defme what direction they need to go. He said if the
Columbus ships leave Corpus Christi, they will leave a bad impression on the community.
Mr. Kinnison said that while the financial projections can be adjusted somewhat, staff has
said that if the city took responsibility for the Columbus fleet, it would create a financial burden,
unless a new scenario comes to light. Mr. Garcia agreed, saying that there are very strong financial
reasons the fleet is not open at this time, primarily because it lost money consistently. He said not
only does the financial deficit continue, there would also be substantial costs involved in reopening
the attraction. Mr. Kinnison said he has seen attendance projections from the Columbus Fleet
Association that never materialized.
Dr. Gon?al es said Mr. Kinnison has seen figures and projections that the rest of the Council
has not seen. Mr. Garcia said staff has the information and they know what has occurred. Staffs
position is that there was a considerable amount of effort put forth to ensure that the city was not
directly involved in the operation of the fleet. He said over the years the Council's policy has been
that the fleet is a privately operated and financed organization. He said now the city is being
approached about putting substantial amounts of money into the exhibit to make it viable.
Mrs. Longoria said she thinks the Columbus ships are very important to the city but she
12
Minutes
Regular Council Meeting

Page 13
understands the financial obligations. However, she said she would support hearing a presentation
about it.
Mr. Longoria said that historically the city has not had anything to do with the ships and they
are outside the scope of the basic service priorities that the Council established last year. He said
very frequently the Council discusses the budget difficulties that the city faces. He said he did not
know how staff could compose a history of events related to the Columbus ships when it has not
been directly involved.
Mr. Colmenero said that last week the Council appointed the members of the boards of the
Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Economic Development Corporation, which will be
working together to bring new dollars to Corpus Chdsti. He said when the ships leave, that will have
a negative economic impact on the community, for which the Council should be prepared. Dr.
Gonzales said staff has the responsibility of providing information and it is up to the Council to
make decisions. Mr. Longoria reiterated that the city is not responsible for the ships' operation.
Mr. Colmenero said that over a year ago when the Council first discussed reengineering, that
eventually led into the teachings of reinventing government. He said there was. a lot of resentment
by people who discouraged those ideas. However, now the city is looking at a brighter opportunity.
Mr. Colmenem said it is very important that the Council be aware of what is happening legally and
financially regarding the Columbus ships.
Mayor Neal said the Council had a closed session on the Columbus fleet and they received
all the information in that session that Mr. Colmenero was currently requesting. Mr. Kinnison said
he did not understand how city staff could interpret what went wrong with the Columbus fleet when
they have not been involved with its operation.
Mr. Scott said he had planned to submit a series of written questions to staff about the
financial information they provided. Mrs. Longoria said she felt Mr. Colmenero's request was
important and it is healthy to discuss issues in the open.
Mr. Garcia said there have been detailed discussions with Council members as a group about
the Columbus ships. He said that while no position was taken because the discussion occurred in
closed session, there was a clear consensus to the staff as to what they should do. He said he felt the
Council was changing that direction. However, he said if it is the consensus of the Council, staff will
make the presentation next week. Mr. Scott said he was not interested in a "witch hunt" and trying
to lay blame.
City Attorney Bray said there were two issues to consider: if a Council member wished to
put this issue on the Council agenda as an agenda item, there ought to be a motion and a vote on it.
He said if the request is just for a report, the Council rules say, "Individual Council member requests
for information, reports, or investigations will be provided by staff, provided that an objection is not
raised by another Council member regarding that request. In cases where an objection is raised, a
Minutes

Page 14
majority vote of the Council will be required in order for staff to proceed on the individual Council
member's request." He said it is not clear from the Council's discussion whether there is a request
for an agenda item or just a report.
Mr. Garcia pointed out that a report would be given in writing and a presentation would be
scheduled as an agenda item. Mr. Colmenero said this was not a witch hunt, and he said he wished
to have staff make a presentation on the issue. Mayor Neal said if it goes on the agenda as a
presentation, there will be no public comment and no action taken by the Council. The Mayor then
directed staff to give a presentation about the Columbus ships and there was no objection.
Mrs. Longoria said she was not going to be present at next week's Council meeting when
they discuss the projects for the bond issue 2000. She said there are two very important projects in
District 1-FM 624 and Oxypark. She reiterated her concern about reducing the amount of the bond
program. Mrs. Longoria also reported a growing pile of debris near Coles Special Emphasis School.
Mr. Kinnison said he received a phone call from a citizen regarding the size of the trash cans
being used in the Solid Waste Services automated pilot program. Mr. Garcia replied that there are
different models of cans but they are all 96-gailon cans which are required' to be used with the
automated equipment. Mr. Kinnison also announced that on March 6th at 5:30 p.m. in the Council
Chambers the YOU organization will be presenting the youth delegates who will be attending the
National League of Cities Congressional City Conference in Washington, D.C., on March 10-I 3.
Dr. Gonzales said he had also received calls from elde~y people about the size of the trash
cans. Mr. Garcia said people who are elderly or disabled can notify the Solid Waste Services
Department and the driver will stop and move the can for the resident. Mr. Ron Massey, Assistant
City Manager for Public Works and Utilities, said the city offers that service now. Mr. Garcia said
even though the containers are large they are very maneuverable.
Dr. Gonzales also thanked Mayor Neal, Ms. Cooper, and Mr. Garrett as well as staff,
particularly Ms. Valerie Gray, Stormwater Superintendent, for their participation in the meeting at
Meadowbrook Elementary. Dr. Gonnles discussed the importance of taking into account the amount
of paved areus that are adjacent to neighborhoods since it affects water runoff into those
neighborhoods.
Mrs. Longoria said she has had several town hall meetings in her district and staff has
provided helpful information. She added that another town hall meeting is scheduled for March 15,
2000, and she asked that Engineering staff and Chief Alvarez be present.
There being no further business to come before the Council, Mayor Neal adjourned the
Council meeting at 3:45 p.m. on February 29, 2000.

BACKGROUNDINFORMATION
SUBJECT: O. N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant Chemical Storage and Feed
System Addition and Upgrade (No. 8269/8270)
PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the FY 97-98 Capital Budget,
(Ordinance #023174)
FUTURE COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of required construction contracts.
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
Background: The water treatment process requires application of various
disinfectant chemicals. In October 1995, the Council approved the annual Capital
Budget initiating a multi-year program of improvements to O. N. Stevens Water
Treatment Plant. The program was designed to enhance safety in chemical usage
and monitoring. The program was also designed to ensure compliance with water
quality regulations imposed by the Safe Drinking Water Act. The first of these
projects, the ammonia gas measurement building was completed in June 1996.
Subsequently, the intake of Lake Texana water has imposed additional requirements
for upgrading the Stevens Plant chemical feed systems.
PROJECT: The engineering contract provides for the combination of throe major
Capital Improvement Projects, and four Capital Outlay projects that had been
reduced to two capital construction projects. During the review of the projects it was
determined the inter-related nature of the various projects required project
coordination that could be best achieved by a single design contract. The contract
will also result in development of plans and specifications for two construction
contracts with estimated values of $710,000 and $3.05 million. The major
components of the consolidated project include:
· replacement of the anhydrous ammonia storage and feed system;
· replacement of the existing liquid aluminum suifate (LAS) storage and feed
system;
· other feed control systems needed to meet treatment standards;
· inspection, operations training, re-engineedng and development of LAN
architecture;
· evaluation of various operational enhancements;
· development of a Facility Optimization Plan for the west end of the O. N. Stevens
Water Treatment Rant;
· upgrade of SCADA (system control and data acquisition) architecture; and
· evaluation of phosphate use.
Complying with water quality requirements, imposed the by the Drinking Water Act,
is an integral element of the proposed engineering services contract.

CHEMICAL STORAGE AND FEED SYSTEM ADDITION AND UPGRADE
1. SCOPE OF PROJECT
This project will replace the existing anhydrous ammonia storage and feed system and also provide additional
storage and feed capabilities that are needed to meet maximum treatment requirements. Liquid ammonium
sulfata is safer to store, handle and use than anhydrous ammonia. It will also replace the existing liquid
aluminum sulfate storage and feed system that has exceeded its anticipated life expectancy and also provide
additional storage and other feed and controls systems as needed to meet maximum treatment requirements.
PART A
SECTION 1. This portion of the project will provide the design for construction of Chemical Storage
and Feed facilities for a standby Chlorine cylinder storage area, new and safer Chlorine Dioxide
reactors and safer Sodium Chlodte containment, a safer and more efficient Chlorine and Ammonium
Sulfate injection system for the raw water, relocating the chemical injection piping from the roof of
Clearwell #1 to allow reroofing and Nueces River Water Quality Monitor.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
CWS Communities L.P., developers of the new phase of Misty Winds Manufactured
Homes, has requested a Use Privilege Agreement (UPA) for the purpose of constructing,
installing, and maintaining two concrete box culvert structures and two vehicular bridges
across a City drainage ditch right-of-way (ROW). The access bridges are approximately
45-feet wide and will cross an existing 80-foot wide drainage ditch.
Misty Winds, a manufactured community development, has purchased adjoining property
to expand the existing mobile home park. The mobile park and the new addition will be
separated by an existing City-owned drainage ditch that traverses the property in an east-
west direction. Two vehicular bridges are proposed to be constructed over the drainage
ditch to allow access between Misty Winds 1 (Lot 1 -R, Block 1, Sandalwood Subdivision)
and Misty Winds 2 (Lot 2, Block 1, Sandalwood Subdivision).
In addition to vehicular access, the bridge will also serve as a support system for a
watedine which will provide water and fire protection for the two units. Each access bridge
is approximately forty-five feet wide and will cross the entire drainage ROW. Each box
culvert structure is approximately seventy-five feet long and sized to allow passage of
storm water flows. An engineering permit will be required for any future repairs that might
need to be made to the two concrete box culvert structures and access bridges included
in this UPA.
No City or franchised utilities objected to this agreement, provided the applicant meets the
specified conditions.
A one-time fee of $2,070.00 is being recommended. The owners have been advised of
and concur with all the conditions of this UPA,

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 2, 2000
SUBJECT: Adoption of the 1999 National Electric Code as the City of Corpus Christi Electric
Code and Amending the 1997 Plumbing Code as the City of Corpus Christi Plumbing Code.
AGENDA ITEM:
An ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances, City of Corpus Christi, Chapter 13,
Buildings; Construction and Related Operations; Housing and Housing Premises Standards,
to adopt the 1999 National Electric Code, with minor local amendments, as the City of
Corpus Christi Electric Code; providing for penalties; providing for severence; and providing
for publication.
b. An ordinance amending Section 13-6, Plumbing Code, of the Code of Ordinances, City of
Corpus Christi, by revising the standards for lawn irrigation systems, and; providing for
penalties; providing for severance; and providing for publication.
ISSUE: The City updates and adopts the current edition of the model building codes to protect the
public's health, safety and general welfare. Additionally, the adoption of the current codes has a
direct positive effect on the insurance rates established for construction and renovation of
improvements within the jurisdiction by organizations such as the Community Rating Sexwices, Inc.
and the Insurance Services Office, Inc.
BACKGROUND II~rFORMATION: The City generally updates its technical construction codes
as the new codes are prepared by the model code organizations with which we are affiliated, i.e., the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the International Association of Fire Chiefs, and the
Southern Building Code Congress Intemational, Inc. (SBCCI), or through its enforcement, finds
improvements to the way we administer the codes.
The National Fire Protection Association is the model code organi Tation with which we are aftHated
that writes, adopts, and publishes the National Electric Code, (NEC). The NEC is adopted and used
by the vast majority of the municipalities in the country. The National Electric Code Committee of
the NFPA acted upon the 1999 NEC during May 1998. The 1999 NEC was issued by the Standards
Council with an effective date of August 5, 1998. It is the latest edition of our locally adopted
electric code. This proposed adoption is the city's effort to stay current with these nationally
recognized and accepted model codes.
The Southern Building Code Congress Intemational, Inc. (SBCCI), is the model code organization
with which we are affiliated that writes, adopts, and publishes the Standard Plumbing Code. The
Standard Plumbing Code as a part of the Standard Code family is adopted and used by a large
number of the municipalities in the country. The Board of Directors of the SBCCI acted upon the
1997 Plumbing Code in 1997. The city of Corpus Christi amended and adopted the Standard Code
family in June of 1999 with an effective date of July 5, 1999. After the city adopted the plumbing
code and staff has had an extended oppommity to work with the code, we have determined that the
proposed amendments will improve the code and will assist with our overall mission of protecting
the public's general health, safety, and welfare.7
ADVISORY BOARD REVIEW: The Electrical Advisory Board reviewed and discussed in detail
the 1999 NEC and the proposed changes to our local amendments. The Electrical Advisory Board
recommended the adoption of the 1999 NEC with our proposed local amendments at its February
17, 2000 regular meeting.
The Plumbing Mechanical Advisory Board reviewed and discussed in detail the local amendments
to the 1997 Standard Plumbing Code beginning at the December 1999 meeting and ending with a
recommendation to adopt the changes to the local amendments at its February 10, 2000 regular
meeting.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: City staff along with the Electrical Advisory Board and the
Plumbing Mechanical Advisory Board recommends that the City Council adopt the 1999 National
Electric Code with local amendments and the amendments to the 1997 Standard Plumbing Code.
Attached is a summary of the substantive changes between the 1996 National Electric Code and the
1999 National Electric Code including proposed changes to the local amendments, and proposed
changes to the 1997 Standard Plumbing Code.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: VVhen City staff assessed facilities for youth in
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) eligible areas and the neighborhood park
system, it was determined that some parks have no play structures. Many more have
outdated play structures with fall zones that do not comply with current Consumer Product
Safety Commission Guidelines. Most parks had too few trees, no half court basketball
and/or multi-purpose courts, and limited or no security lighting. It became increasingly
clear that recreational opportunities for the City's youth in the neighborhood park system
were very limited.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project consists of site preparation, labor, materials, and
equipment to construct recreational facilities which include reinforced concrete sidewalks,
multi-purpose courts, concrete flatwork and concrete playground curbing, basketball
backstops and all appurtances for these areas which, include but are not limited to, picnic "~
62
Page I of 2
shelters, benches, and play structures of various types for the following five (5) CDBG-
eligible park sites and eight (8) neighborhood park sites citywide:
CDBG-EliQible Park Sites
Botsford Park
Fountain Park
H.E.B. Park
Molina Veterans Park
Sacky Park
Neighborhood Park Sites
Brookhill Park
Camargo Park
Creekway Park
Golden Oaks Park
Lexington Park
South Fork Park
Wales Park
Willow Park
Improvements will include:
demolition and removal of outdated and unsafe play structures;
installation of updated play structures which comply with current federal
safety guidelines;
picnic shelters; and
half-court basketball courts and/or multi-purpose courts.
These improvements will enhance recreational opportunities for the youth in our
community. The improvements are programmed to be similar in all parks involved. The
safety features of the new play equipment are a key element of the improvement program.
BID INFORMATION: Bids were received on February 16, 2000, with 7 bidders submitting
proposals. The bid proposal was set up with a Base Bid, Part A (CDBG-Eligible Park
Sites) and Part B (Neighborhood Park Sites). The base bids ranged from $477,000 to
$574,000. Reese Contracting of Corpus Christi, the low bidder, has successfully
completed previous work for the City. City staff recommends award of the construction
contract to Reese Contracting in the amount of $477,000.
FUNDING: Funding will be provided by a combination of CDBG, Park Trust Funds, and
Park Bond Funds. The Park Bond Funds include unencumbered balances being
reprogrammed. See Exhibit B.
CDBG funds are restricted to parks located in CDBG eligible areas. The Base Bid, Part
A (CDBG-Eligible Park Sites) submitted by Reese Contracting was $226,000. The
available CDBG funding is $150,000, which will be supplemented with Park Bond Funds.
CONTRACT TERMS: The contract specifies that the project will be completed in 150
calendar days, with completion anticipated by August 2000.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 3, 2000
SUBJECT: Kostoryz Road Improvements (Holly Road to Saratoga Boulevard)
Project No. 6068
AGENDA ITEM:
a. Resolution of Statement Expressing Official Intent to Reimburse Costs of Kostoryz
Road Improvements (Holly Road to Saratoga Boulevard).
b. Ordinance appropriating $239,450 from the Unreserved Fund Balance in the Combined
Utility Systems Fund; transferring and appropriating $78,484 in the No. 3480
Stormwater CIP Fund for the Kostoryz Road Improvements Project; loaning and
appropriating $160,966 in the No. 3539 Street Capital Improvements Project 2000 (CO)
Bond Fund for the City's share of the State's Kostoryz Road Improvements Project, to
be reimbursed to the Combined Utility Systems Fund at 6.16% interest; amending the
FY99-00 Budget, adopted by Ordinance No. 023702, by adding $239,450 to the
Combined Utility Systems Fund; amending the FY99-00 Capital Budget, adopted by
Ordinance No. 023703, by adding $78,484 to the Stormwater CIP Fund and $160,966
to the Street CIP Fund; and declaring an emergency.
c. Resolution authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an Advanced
Funding Agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) in the
amount of $698,377.77 for the construction of roadway improvements associated with
the Kostoryz Road Improvements (Holly Road to Saratoga Boulevard).
d. Ordinance amending Ordinance No. 023879, adopted on December 21, 1999, which
appropriated $728,834 from the Unreserved Fund Balance in the Combined Utility
Systems Fund, for the purpose of clarification only, by substituting Section 2, deleting
the word "transferring" and replacing it with the word "loaning;" and declaring an
emergency.
ISSUE: An advanced funding agreement is required for TxDOT to proceed with the
construction COntract award of the Kostoryz Road Improvements from Holly Road to
Saratoga Boulevard. The project will upgrede traffic flow and safety and provide an
improved connection with Saratoga Boulevard.
FUNDING: The Kostoryz Road street improvements are partially funded with Series 1995
Certificates of Obligation. A budget over-run, due to higher than anticipated right-of-way
costs and the addition of fiber optics and street lighting conduit, requires an additional
$160,966 in street funds. This shortfall can be covered with a loan from the Unreserved
Fund Balance of the Combined Utilities Systems Fund to be repaid at the market interest
rate later this summer when Certificates of Obligation are to be issued for several different
projects. Funds for the associated utility work are available in the Capital Projects Fund
(Commercial Paper).

Page 1 of 2
H:%HOME\SHELBY~GEN~AG99~TREETS~KOSTORYZ~PHASE~11.M
The previous appropriation ordinance on the Leopard Street Improvements Project -
McKinzie to Rehfeld Road is unmistakably a loan from the Combined Utility Systems Fund
to the Street Bond Fund ("with the funds actually borrowed...to be reimbursed...at 5.6%
interest within 12 months." However, use of the word "transferred" has been the subject
of an unfounded allegation in a lawsuit that "Said ordinance, by its terms, provides for: a
prohibited transfer..." Consequently, it is recommended that Ordinance 023879 be
amended to substitute the word "loaned" for "transferred."
RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the resolutions and ordinances as presented.

Backclround Information:
Administration of the Weed and Seed Program was assigned to the Park and Recreation
Department on October 26, 1999. City Council reorganized the Weed & Seed Steering
Committee and appointed additional neighborhood representatives, bringing the committee up to
twelve.
The by-laws of the Committee limited grants to a maximum total of $25,000 per request. Groups
could request more than one proposal for funding. As per the Weed & Seed grant, $197,191.00 of
available funds, $25,000 must go towards gang issues, $25,000 for the arts, and $40,000 for Safe
Haven Sites.
Notice requesting proposals for programs for the target areas were posted in the Caller Times in
December 1999 and January 2000. Pre-proposal meetings were held at the Antonio E. Garcia Art
Education Center on January 12,2000 and at City Hall on January 20, 2000. As a result a total of
40 proposals were received totaling $723,147.91. Copies of all proposals were sent to the
Steering Committee for review. The Weed and Seed Steering Committee met to review and listen
to presentations given by the applicants on February 17, 2000. Due to the large amount of
proposals to review a follow up working meeting was set for February 22, 2000, at l:30pm. Ten
members of the Steering Committee were present and scored each proposal. The evaluation
sheets were turned into the Weed & Seed Management Assistant and totaled. The committee
than listed the top 17 rated proposals. The Steering Committee then evaluated our required
funding for gang intervention, art projects and Safe Haven funding. Out of the top 17 proposals,
all agencies were funded at least partially once. As a final result of their review they
recommended funding on 12 proposals: Tejano Academy of Fine Arts for $12,500.00, Fighting

Proposed Bond Issue 2000 Projects
On February 15, 2000, staff presented City Council with detailed information on projects
that could be included in a 5-year bond program which minimized the impact on the
proposed ad valorem tax rate. That program totaled $53 million dollars and is included as
an attachment to this memo and is called Alternative 2.
At that time, the Council asked staff to develop an alternative package which would be
smaller (in the range of $25 million), be initiated immediately after voter approval in
November, and be substantially completed within 3 years. During discussion of that
approach, Mayor Neal provided a suggested plan which might be able to meet the cdteda
stated. That alternative has been prepared and is also attached to this memo and labeled
Alternative 3.
Over the last several weeks, the staff has analyzed the alternative proposal and has
developed a variation of that option which we believe more closely meets the objectives
stated on February 15, That option is attached and labeled as Alternative 4. The package
is slightly larger than Alternative 3 at $26 million but some care has been taken to include
additional funding to offset the potential for inflation. The following is a description of some
of the more significant changes:
The Staff proposal includes a full fire station in the Yorktown area in lieu of a modular
facility. A modular facility was proposed for the Mustang Island area because of the low
volume of calls anticipated and the desire to see the longer term development picture
in the area prior to siting a permanent facility. Such an approach is not viable for the
Yorktown area which is viewed as a permanent site,
The Animal and Vector Control facility is proposed to be phased. The initial phase
would replace the more critical animal control operation. Vector control would remain
at its current facility until funding could be acquired for a planned expansion in the
future.
The small amount allocated for renovation of existing parks was not sufficient to
undertake a viable project. Those funds were added to the Youth Sports Facilities
project to increase funding in that area by $500,000. The HEB Tennis Center project
was eliminated.

TXDOT participation projects were adjusted to reflect the current TIP schedule forthose
projects. Because of this schedule the FM 624 project is deleted from the list and the
McKinzie Road project is added.
Adjustments were made to Streets projects and budgets to ensure that projects can be
accomplished within the guidelines provided. The Cliff Maus and Home Road project
budgets reflect the most recent estimate from the Engineering Departmeht. A number
of other projects are suggested for deletion because the need for right-of-way may
make it difficult to complete within the three year time proposed. It is suggested,
however, that an amount of $500,000 be included for right-of-way and land acquisition
forthe deleted projects so that they could be included in a subsequent package more
easily.
Finally, the allocation for Street Overlays was increased by $1 million. Ovedays are an
effective method to improve the condition of our streets and the low cost relative to
reconstruction makes it possible to cover a great number of streets with a small budget.
Such projects can also be done quickly in order to meet the time constraints of the
program.
Financial Impact
For purposes of the financial analysis, we assumed that Alternative 3 and Alternative 4
would have the same relative impact on the tax rate. Given the size of the issue and the
short time frame for completion of the projects, staff assumed that the debt would be
issued in one increment in January, 2001. Although there may be some strategies which
would produce either a smaller required increase or a delay in the impact, such a change
would be minor and may be offset by the added cost of issuance. Staff will continue to
explore those options and will report back on the results. In the meantime, the figures that
are developed and are included as Attachment E represent a conservative number. As
Council can see, the property tax rate for debt service would have to be increased by 3.35
cents per $100 valuation in FY 2002 to fund the proposed bonds. This increase would be
sufficient and no further increase for debt on this issue would be needed. It should be
noted that this schedule does not include the one-time funding of additional debt service
fund reserves. Staff is researching how this funding can be provided within the
requirements of state statute.
In addition to the above information, staff is working on a description of the impact of the
various options on the average homeowner and taxpayer. That information will be included
as part of our presentation.
