The Final Plat was reviewed by the Planning & Zoning Commission on May 17, 2007, and although the plat was found to be complete, the engineering plans needed corrections. The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval of the Final Plat with the stipulation that the engineering plans must be approved by staff and Teague, Nall & Perkins’ (TNP) engineer prior to Town Council approval of the plat. The applicant was not able to revise the engineering plans prior to the Town Council meeting on May 21, 2007; therefore, Town Council tabled the item to June 4, 2007.

EXPLANATION: It is recommended that the Town not accept any land donation in an amount of less than 5 acres. In the event that cash or in-kind is accepted the value shall be calculated at a rate of one (1) acre per forty four (44) lots. Where Town Council determines that a payment of money in lieu of land shall be made, the following provisions shall apply. A. Amount Required to be Paid: 1. Any payment of money required to be paid by this Ordinance shall be in an amount equal to the average per acre value of the whole property included within the residential development. The acquisition price for land shall be equal to the appraised value of the land existing in effect at the time of Final Plat approval. 2. In determining the average per acre value of the total land included within the proposed residential development, the Town Council may base its determination on one or more of the following: a. The most recent appraisal of all or part of the property made by the central appraisal district; or b. Confirmed sale prices of all or part of the property to be developed, or comparable property in close proximity thereof, which have occurred within two (2) years immediately proceeding the date of determination; or c. Where, in the judgment of the Town Council, (i) or (ii) above would not, because of changed conditions, be a reliable indication of the then current value of land being developed, an independent appraisal of the whole property shall be obtained by the Town and paid for by the developer. 21 Based upon the methodology for parkland dedication contained in the Town’s ordinance, the Developer of Churchill Downs would owe $57,670 that would be paid as money in lieu of parkland dedication. That cost calculation is based upon the following: 35 Dwelling units require a Park Land turnover of .79 acres. Using the land purchase price of $73,000.00 per acre would require the developer to pay $57,670.00 in monies in lieu of land.

Purchases made through an approved Cooperative Purchasing Program satisfy state law competitive bid requirements. Attached is a resolution approving participation in those programs specifically listed in the resolution. The following is a list of those programs and a brief description of each program for which staff seeks Council approval: Catalog Information Systems Vendor (CISV) - The purpose of the CISV Purchasing Program is to allow for qualified entities (state agencies and political subdivisions) to purchase automated information systems products and /or services in an efficient, cost effective, and competitive procurement method. Department of Information Resources (DIR) – DIR is an agency of the State of Texas. Among their varied responsibilities, DIR must negotiate volume purchase agreements for quality products and services. All Texas state agencies are eligible to use these agreements.

One part of fulfilling this responsibility is to establish term contracts available to all Texas state agencies.

Texas Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS) – TIPS is sponsored by the Region VIII Education Service Center and is available for use by all public and private schools, 24 colleges, universities, cities, counties, and other government entities in the State of Texas.

Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) Cooperative Purchasing Program – through the Texas Interlocal Cooperation Act, local governments, states, state agencies and non profit corporations providing one or more governmental functions and services have access to contracts developed by H-GAC. Western States Contracting Alliance – WSCA is an alliance of 15 states joining forces to get the quality goods and services at cost effective prices. This program focuses on state governments. Although Texas is not one of the original states forming WSCA, we are eligible for WSCA pricing. US Communities – all government entities are eligible to use US Communities contracts, which focus on high use, high volume items. BuyBoard – the BuyBoard was developed by the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) along with the Texas Association of Counties and the Texas Municipal League.

US General Services Administration (GSA) - GSA Advantage has been the most reliable and proven source for thousands of Federal purchasers worldwide.
