Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 1 of 40Town Council Page 5 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T 1. Consider and take appropriate action regarding the Minutes dated May 26, 2015. (Town Secretary Note: Approved as presented in the Town Council agenda packet) 2. Consider and take appropriate action regarding the Minutes dated June 1, 2015. (Town Secretary Note: Approved as presented in the Town Council agenda packet) 3. Consider and take appropriate action regarding financial and variance report dated May 2015. 4. Consider and take appropriate action regarding an Interlocal Agreement between the Town and TCMUD No.1 to participate in the Town’s July 4th community event; and authorizing the Mayor or his designees to execute all necessary documents. Mayor Pro Tem Lamont requested to remove Item No. 4 from the Consent Agenda. Motion made by Mayor Pro Tem Lamont, seconded by Council Member Parrow, to approve the Consent Agenda Items 1 through 3. Motion passed unanimously. REGULAR SESSION 4. Consider and take appropriate action regarding an Interlocal Agreement between the Town and TCMUD No.1 to participate in the Town’s July 4th community event; and authorizing the Mayor or his designees to execute all necessary documents. Attachment A – Partially Executed - Interlocal Cooperation Agreement for July 4th Community Event Mayor Pro Tem Lamont stated that he believes that this is a Town event and should be kept within the Town. Motion: Motion made by Council Member Shoffner, seconded by Council Member Kurtz, to approve the Interlocal Agreement with the following change on page 2, under Obligations, after “Fun Run T-Shirts”, add “invite all MUD Directors to participate in the Parade of Patriots”. Town Attorney Adams advised that it should be District Directors instead of MUD Directors in order to stay consistent with the terminology within the agreement. Council Members Shoffner and Kurtz agreed with the modification. Motion to Amend: Motion to Amend made by Mayor Pro Tem Lamont, seconded by Council Member Rowe, to remove “for all of the residents of the Town and District” within the third Whereas, so that it reads “Whereas, Town annually hosts an event to celebrate the 4th of July”. Mayor Pro Tem Lamont commented that the Town has other abilities to provide payment for this event other than narrowing costs down to the residents based on the sixth Whereas that references that all costs associated will be paid from current revenues legally available to each party. Town Attorney Adams commented that it seemed to be significant to the TCMUD No.1 when drafting this agreement that the community event component be emphasized, and she suggested possibly expanding community events elsewhere. Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 2 of 40Town Council Page 6 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T Mayor Pro Tem Lamont stated that his intent was not to get into a legal situation where the Town cannot transfer funds to pay for certain facilities such as tents and portable toilets. Town Manager Seidel stated that this is for the sponsorship of fireworks and the fireworks are paid through the general fund. The vote was taken for the Motion to Amend. Motion failed for lack of majority 2-5-0 with Mayor Pro Tem Lamont and Council Member Reed voting for, and Mayor Sanders, and Council Members Parrow, Rowe, Kurtz, and Shoffner voting against. Council Member Reed commented that he would like to have a discussion on this item next year during the budget process. The vote was taken for the Main Motion as Modified. Motion passed unanimously. 5. Consider and take appropriate action regarding funding options for the Joint Police and Town Hall Facility. Assistant Town Manager/CFO Glickman provided the Town Hall and Police Station Funding Options and Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) presentation which included: Current Plan; The Goal; Options; Option No. 1; Option No. 2; Option No. 3; Option No. 4; Notes Regarding CCPD; and Decision Points. Discussion took place regarding possibilities of using the CCPD budget and implementing an Interlocal Agreement (ILA). Council Member Rowe stated that he believes the Council was elected by the voters to make financial decisions, and that there should be an understanding of common goals between who they appoint to CCPD and the Council. Mayor Sanders commented that out of Option No. 2 verses Option No. 3, Option No. 3 appears to be the better option. He added that Option No. 4 would save the most funds and it rolls the street Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) into the Certificate of Obligation (CO). Discussion took place regarding approximate cost per year that would come out of the CCPD budget if Option No. 4 was chosen, and that there would be an ability to pay more on the CO to help with the General Obligation (GO) Bond with Option 4. Council Member Reed spoke in favor of Option No. 2, and stated that the most important factor is building a new facility for the Police Department. He believed that the Council should shift as much as possible to CCPD to help offset the amount on the November Bond Election. Town Manager Seidel asked if the CCPD were in favor of the option, would the Council consider, over next few years, using additional sales tax for additional programs or other items to help offset the CCPD budget. Council Member Reed stated that if the CCPD satisfies their debt service, they could use the remainder of the funds for their needs. Council Member Kurtz commented that the last Bond Election did not pass because of the overall amount of the Bond. He believed that Council should continue to use every opportunity to get the amount down. Mayor Pro Tem Lamont commented that the main reason when the citizens voted to move the sales tax from the Parks to the CCPD was to fund the new facility. Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 3 of 40Town Council Page 7 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T Council Member Parrow stated that he believed Option No. 2 would be great if the Town had an ILA in place prior to calling the election, but if there is not an agreement then he would concerned. He added that Option No. 4 is the recommended avenue to take because it has financial savings and increases debt capacity for additional projects, and continues funding for the CCPD. He stated that he would rather go with Option No. 4 if an ILA is in place before calling the election. Police Chief Arata commented that it has been a key component of the CCPD to fund the new facility and Option No. 4 would allow funding for CCPD equipment. Council Member Reed stated that he feels Option No. 2 is the cleaner version because CCPD would issue, fund, and be responsible for the debt. Council Member Rowe commented that he believes that they can achieve that principle with Option No. 4, and that he agrees with wrapping in funding needed for street CIP projects. Council Member Reed stated that he can support Option No. 4 because everyone has the same end goal. Ted Powell, 12 Reading Court, stated that he was on point with Option No. 2, and educating the citizens and what it means on the Bond, but now that he was looking at Option No. 4 with ILA, he believes that is a good option. He believed that the bond should pass if this is presented to the citizens in the right way. Susan Edstrom, 2690 Oak Hill Drive, stated that she supports Option No. 4, and that there will need to be a strong Bond Committee formed in order to drive the message to the citizens. Motion: Motion made by Council Member Rowe, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Lamont, to direct Town Staff to pursue Option No. 4 as presented for the Police Facility funding and CCPD funds. Discussion took place regarding that the CO would be in the amount of $1.75 to $2 million, which was included in Option No. 4. Assistant Town Manager/CFO Glickman stated that the CCPD has a meeting on July 8, 2015, to consider adoption of their Fiscal Year 2016 budget and that the Option that the Council approves would be presented to the CCPD Board. The vote was taken. Motion passed unanimously. 6. Receive public input regarding the Police and Town Hall facility; discussion of same. Susan Edstrom, 2690 Oak Hill Drive, stated that she supports the Town Hall and Police facility, but the Animal Shelter is one component missing with no clear resolution. She went over future state ideal requirements that she presented before Council in December 2014, which included: Temperature controlled environment; Three to five kennels, flooring that would be conducive to easy cleaning and drainage; Small outdoor dog run; Tub to wash animals; Washer and Dryer; Mechanical hose access; and Access from outside the building. She believed the Animal Shelter should be in close proximity to the Police Department and asked that the Council consider future planning of Town facilities over the next 20 to 30 years in order to avoid not having enough space. Council member Parrow asked how many pets and animals have been brought into the existing facility and held there in the course of a year. Mrs. Edstrom stated that she can get updated numbers from her presentation that she provided in December 2014. She advised that she has been trying to track the number of animals that she picks up and that she works Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 4 of 40Town Council Page 8 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T with residents to reunite them with their animal without involving the Animal Control Officer (ACO), which she reports to the non-emergency line. She stated that she would combine her numbers with the Town’s and send them to the Council. Mayor Sanders commented that the Council has not decided how some acreage is going to be utilized, but will look at other aspects for areas of land that was purchased by the Town. Town Manager Seidel stated that Tom Batenhorst, GSBS Principal, will provide an update at the July 14, 2015, Council meeting. No action was taken on this item. 7. Receive an update regarding the July 4th community event; discussion of same. Parks and Recreation Director Adams provided the July 4th community event update which included: Activities; Patriot 5K Route; Parade of Patriots Route; Parking Options; Emergency Command; and an aerial exhibit of the fireworks launch location, safety perimeter, and audience location. Council Member Shoffner asked to consider having the music that plays with the fireworks display available through a simulcast low range broadcast for next year. Council Member Reed asked that the option be looked at for future 4th of July events. Town Manager Seidel acknowledged Northwest Independent School District (NISD) and Byron Nelson High School for allowing the Town to utilize their campus for the fireworks. He commented that Police Chief Arata and Fire Chief Thomas have been working diligently to ensure security and emergency medical services are available during the event. No action was taken on this item. RECESSED AT 8:30 P.M. FOR A BREAK RECONVENED AT 8:40 P.M. INTO REGULAR SESSION 8. Receive an update from Susan Edstrom with the Animal Shelter Advisory Board regarding the animal ordinance. Attachment B – Animal Shelter Board Ordinance Update Presentation Mrs. Edstrom, with the Animal Shelter Advisory Board, provided the Animal Shelter Advisory Board ordinance update presentation, which included: Shelter Board Request; Ordinance Review; Discussed Requirements if Allowed to Move Forward; Plan for Grandfathering if backyard chickens are prohibited; Pending Action Item; Other items under Consideration; and Next Steps. Council Member Rowe thanked Mrs. Edstrom for her presentation. Discussion took place that currently there are approximately 25 to 30 chickens in the Town and regarding the Health Control requirements for selling of eggs. Council Member Parrow stated that he viewed a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) report that was published by Discovery on homegrown chickens and issues with environmental controls. Mrs. Edstrom asked him to share that publication with her and stated that she would try to incorporate rules to prevent those concerns. Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 5 of 40Town Council Page 9 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T Council Member Shoffner commented that a grandfather provision would be difficult to enforce. Mrs. Edstrom stated that it would require communication with the residents through the Towns social media. Discussion took place regarding proposed signage for a resident that has a guard dog, and regarding types of traps that can be used to capture animals. Mrs. Edstrom asked for direction from the Council how to proceed with the ordinance. Council Member Shoffner stated that he would like them to come back with two or three options with the survey results, and then the Council could make a decision before sending the ordinance to the Town Attorney. Council Member Parrow commented that based on the initial survey results, it seemed that there were a large number of residents who were opposed to chickens and that he would like to see more data. Council Member Rowe commented that he was in favor of allowing the ordinance with regulations, and that he would like to simplify the process and be reasonable for enforcement. Council Member Reed stated that he would like to see a couple of options presented to the Council, and to make it simple if there are going to be regulations in place. Council Member Kurtz stated that he would like there to be a large setback requirement in order to be considerate of adjacent neighbors. Council Member Shoffner commented that he believes the chickens should be in coops or possibly chicken runs. Mrs. Edstrom discussed requiring that the wings be clipped, and that the setbacks would be for the chicken coops and feeding. Council Member Parrow commented that he sent Mrs. Edstrom and the Council the article that he referred to earlier. He stated that the ACO would have a difficult time enforcing sanitation standards, and he does not want to create an environment in the future where people can become ill. No action was taken on this item. 9. Receive a status update and provide direction to Town Staff regarding the Parks Request for Proposals. Mayor Sanders stated that the Town went out for an RFP and did not receive adequate response and that the Council needed to formally decide how to proceed. Town Manager Seidel stated that the Town did not receive any submissions back for the bid, but had one vendor inquire about the bid. He added that Town Staff is looking at the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 budget and possibly outsourcing some of the work to allow Staff to focus on specialized areas. Mayor Sanders stated that the school district outsources maintenance of their fields, and that he suspects it could be more economical to outsource all the fields. Council Member Rowe stated that a reason for his support for this process was that he understands that there are certain tasks that are skilled and unskilled labor. He added that he would like to see a conscience effort to consolidate the category of unskilled labor and outsource as much of that as possible so that Staff can focus their resources more on the skilled labor projects. Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 6 of 40Town Council Page 10 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T Discussion took place regarding possible cost savings and the high demand to maintain the large amount of open space within the Town. Council Member Shoffner agreed that the unskilled labor should be outsourced, and that the Town needs to continue to actively try to eliminate maintaining areas that the Town does not own. Parks and Recreation Director Adams stated that the information has been maintained for the areas that are not owed by the Town, and that there are a couple of decisions that will need to come from the Council. He advised that there is a Parks full-time position that he wanted to make into a part-time position in order to create cost savings. Council Member Kurtz commented that a possible way to save funds would be to step back from over maintaining the ball fields. Town Manager Seidel stated that Town Staff will keep making those types of adjustments. No action was taken on this item. 10. Consider and take appropriate action regarding an Ordinance of the Town amending the Code of Ordinances by repealing Sections 12.02 through 12.05 and Sections 12.07 through 12.09 of Article XII, “Standards for the Repair, Removal or Demolition of Dangerous or Substandard Buildings”, of Chapter 3 “Buildings and Construction”, and renumbering remaining sections, and by adopting Article X entitled “Building Standards Commission” of Chapter 3 “Buildings and Construction”; providing for amendments, providing civil penalties; providing a criminal penalty not to exceed the sum of $2000 for each misdemeanor offense; and providing an effective date. Attachment C - Ordinance No. 2015-13 Mayor Pro Tem Lamont commented that this is taking the responsibility away from the Council and transferring it over to a group of volunteer residents (Building Standards Commission) that may have some expertise in these areas. Town Attorney Adams stated that the input that she received was to allow flexibility with who the Council would appoint, to provide for artisans for this board to have at least one qualified member with specific qualifications, and that the Council would select the Chair and allow the Commission to appoint a Vice Chairperson. She added that Council Member Shoffner had inquired about the Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA) and the Building Standards Commission (BSC) members being one and the same, which can be the case, but they need to be two separate boards. Council Member Rowe recommended that the Handbook for co-appointment of the ZBA and BSC be brought back for consideration, along with a minor change that is explicit to the Commission and how they can be removed only with cause and have an opportunity for a hearing, and to reflect “expect where otherwise provided by State law”. Council Member Reed agreed that the two boards should be co-existing, and inquired if this board has the ability to enact and enforce these items. Town Attorney Adams stated that this Commission is independent of the Council and can make decisions regarding building code issues and sub-standard building issues. Council Member Rowe commented that the Commission would hear an appeal that comes through Staff and decide on a structure that is sub-structured or uninhabitable, similar to the ZBA. Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 7 of 40Town Council Page 11 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T Council Member Parrow commented to possibly change “should” to “must” within Section 10.02 (A) regarding qualifications based on the Commission’s authority. Council Member Shoffner stated that it is the Councils responsibility to have those qualified members on the Commission and that the Town Council Appointments Committee will do their best to get qualified members on the Commission, but there needs to be some flexibility because there is a chance that they may not find someone that meets all the specific fields. Mayor Sanders stated that the reason the language was vague was because a retired electrician may not have a license but has the knowledge. Council Member Rowe spoke in favor of leaving the language as is. Mayor Sanders asked to have the changes that Council Member Rowe had discussed, regarding the Handbook, be brought back before the Council for consideration. Motion: Motion made by Council Member Rowe, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Lamont, to approve Ordinance No. 2015-13, amending the Code of Ordinances by repealing Sections 12.02 through 12.05 and Sections 12.07 through 12.09 of Article XII, “Standards for the Repair, Removal or Demolition of Dangerous or Substandard Buildings”, of Chapter 3 “Buildings and Construction”, and renumbering remaining sections, and by adopting Article X entitled “Building Standards Commission” of Chapter 3 “Buildings and Construction”; providing for amendments, providing civil penalties; providing a criminal penalty not to exceed the sum of $2000 for each misdemeanor offense; and providing an effective date, as presented at the dais. Motion carried 6-1-0 with Mayor Sanders, Mayor Pro Tem Lamont, and Council Members Reed, Rowe, Kurtz and Shoffner voting for and Council Member Parrow voting against. 11. Receive update and provide input to Town Staff regarding policy on an Equipment Replacement Program. Town Manager Seidel stated that this project was taken on by the Citizens Financial Advisory Board (CFAB), with Staff assistance, and is brought back for any additional Council feedback and action. He emphasized that these would be the minimum standards for replacement. Council Member Shoffner inquired if the maintenance is for preventative maintenance or actual maintenance. Town Manager Seidel stated that it was for actual maintenance, and commented that Staff did an RFP for preventative maintenance to try to consolidated and save funds. No action was taken on this item. 12. Discuss and provide direction to Town Staff regarding potential amendments to the Town Charter. Council Member Rowe had a proposed amendment to the Town Charter to repeal the term limits for Councils (Amendment No. 1). Council Member Kurtz commented that he has seen a few people run unopposed over the last couple of years, and was concerned that if there were term limits, then there is a possibility that there might not be enough candidates to run for Council. Council Member Rowe stated that the Town did not have term limits for elected officials from 1985 to 2010, and that citizens should be able to vote for who they support and have more choices. He added that since the May 2009 amendment to place term limits, the Council has a 70 percent turnover rate on elected officials and that only Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 8 of 40Town Council Page 12 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T 25 percent of incumbents with an opponent have succeeded. Council Member Reed stated that he believed that the voters should have the choice on who they want to represent and serve them. He added that he would like the amendment to be on the November 2015 ballot. Town Manager Seidel stated that the proposed amendment to the remove the Budget Submission Date requirement (Amendment No. 2) from the Charter was because Staff does not receive certified values usually until the Friday of the last week in July. He is in favor of making the date more flexible because it is difficult to meet the requirement when Staff is waiting on Denton County, and Staff already has a built in timeline because of the Truth and Taxation requirements. He would prefer to remove the date all together and that it may be more appropriate to put the requirement into a policy, as opposed to the Charter. Council Member Rowe was in favor of supporting the recommendation to remove the date, and stated that the date the budget is delivered to the Council is an operational topic. Mayor Sanders supported not having the requirement in the Charter and received consensus to move the item forward. Mayor Pro Tem Lamont asked to remove the Resign to Run requirement from the Charter (Amendment No. 3) because with three year terms, if it exceeds more than one year and 30 days then a Council Member would have to resign if they would like to run for another office. Council Member Shoffner spoke against the amendment. Council Member Reed stated that he could go either way, but he is not opposed to a Council Member wanting to take on more responsibility and continue serving the citizens. Mayor Sanders stated that the State dictates if someone runs for office outside of the jurisdiction they are serving on and does not allow them to hold two positions. Mayor Sanders felt that the Charter should not prohibit Council Members serving on Town Boards (Amendment No. 4) based on what other towns allow. Council Member Rowe agreed that it should not be in the Charter but was not sure he wanted to see this amendment on the ballot in November 2015, he would like to focus on the new facility and the term limits. Council Member Parrow stated that if someone is willing to serve, puts in the time, and has the expertise, then they should be able to. Council Member Kurtz stated that in other towns, Council sits on other boards, especially EDC and TIRZ, and he feels that the Town should be operating the same. Council Members Shoffner, Rowe and Reed commented that at this time they do not want to put this amendment as a Charter amendment on the November 2015 ballot. Mayor Pro Tem Lamont stated that he would like to see what the draft looks like. Mayor Sanders asked to bring back the amendments for Council to be able to discuss the items further. No action was taken on this item. 13. Town Council Liaison Updates; discussion of same. *Parks and Recreation Board, June 15, 2015 Town Council Minutes June 23, 2015 Page 9 of 40Town Council Page 13 of 79 Meeting Date: July 28, 2015 DR A F T Council Liaison - Council Member Philip Shoffner Provided update, no action taken, just discussion. 14. Town Manager Seidel's update regarding the following; Council discussion and provide input regarding same. • Community Garden • MEAT "U" ANYWHERE • Mosquito update • Trophy Club Park Town Manager Seidel updated the Council and addressed questions; no action taken, update only. Ted Powell thanked Town Manager Seidel for meeting with him, and stated that it was good meeting but his opinion is that the garden should be moved. He asked if the agreement gets approved, does that mean the next day movement will take place at the garden or will there be time to allow for something to be in place for privacy. He is concerned that the garden will be in place and he would like the privacy issue to be addressed before the garden moves forward. Town Manager Seidel stated that he wants to make sure that everyone is on the same page. He believes there are things that can be done to mitigate Mr. Powell’s issues, a way to put those items in place, and structure that into the recommendations that are presented to Council for consideration. Mayor Sanders stated that he would like to see the implementation plan when the agreement comes before the Council. Mr. Powell commented that as a citizen and with the size of the Town, if term limits are going to be continued then it will become tough. 15. Items for Future Agendas to include discussion of Agenda Items for consideration on the upcoming Regular Session Council Agenda for July 14, 2015 meeting and discussion of Future Agenda Items. This item allows Council to request the placement of items on upcoming agendas when the topic of discussion requires research and review that cannot be accomplished in the time frame between regular Council meetings. However, a Council Member may request that an item be placed on the next regularly scheduled meeting without first placing that item on the Future Agenda Items list. All requests for agenda items must comply with Charter requirements. Discussion took place that an update from GSBS will be provided at the July 14, 2015, meeting regarding the Police and Town Hall facility. Mayor Pro Tem Lamont suggested starting the July 14, 2015, meeting at 6 p.m., due to the amount of proposed agenda items. Council Member Shoffner asked to remove Item No. 3 from the Town Council Future Agenda Items list: Consider and take appropriate action regarding policy on equipment schedule for replacement program. Mayor Sanders asked to remove Item No. 6 from the Town Council Future Agenda Items List: Discussion of possible charter amendments. Additionally, he asked to remove Item No. 8 from the list: Receive an update regarding the Community Garden, located within Harmony Park, and receive an update regarding the use agreement between Keep Trophy Club Wild (KTCW) and the Town. Discussion took place regarding Town Staff working with Vantage regarding the standing water issues at the abandoned well sites.

Explanation: The Town operates a Recreation Program Fund for the purpose of providing a variety of recreational programs throughout the year. The revenues derived from these programs are intended to cover the expenditures related to providing the programs. The Town accounts for this fund as a special revenue fund. A special revenue fund’s fund balance must be restricted either internally, by the governing body, or externally, such as by the State. During our fiscal year 2014 audit, the Town’s auditors, Weaver and Tidwell, recommended to staff that the Town Council take action to commit the funds generated in the Recreation Program Fund to fund the programs expenditures to cement the classification as a special revenue fund in future years. Attachments: None Recommendation: Staff recommends committing funds in the Recreation Program Fund to fund expenditures associated with providing recreational programming.

Explanation: During the early stages of fiscal year 2015 Council elected to reduce the annual annuity increase of TMRS from 70% of CPI to 30% of CPI and asked to be provided the information on an annual basis to consider its options. With the current annual annuity increase of 30% of CPI the TMRS rate for calendar year 2016 is 12.75%. Choosing an annuity increase of 50% or 70% would increase the TMRS rate for calendar year 2016 to 14.63% or 16.65%, respectively.

Explanation: At the July 14th Council meeting a request was made to bring forward a solution to provide the Police Department with $200,000 in funding for special projects as the Chief of Police sees fit. Committing $200,000 in the General Fund for Public Safety would allow the Chief of Police to administer those funds across one or multiple budget years. Within the proposed budget and planning budgets, staff would include future expenditures of $200,000 related to this commitment.
