Director of Public Works, Jim Berman was recognized and provided a presentation of viable projects.  He noted that the Bolivar Street Pipe Bursting project would allow us to replace the Bolivar Street Sewer line and install nine (9) new manholes for the services along that line,which is a major thoroughfare through downtown.  This project would initially get Bolivar set to do some street work through town. He noted this project could be started in February and could be done before May.  Mr. Berman also noted he would like to start doing a maintenance program on our ground storage and our elevated storage tanks. The idea is to rehab and then have an annual budget cost every year to maintain each facility.  The best time to do this would be during the winter months when there is not such a high use of demand. He noted that he is bringing this project forward while we are in the off season because we will be taking the storage tanks completely out of service and the best time to do it is when we are not in high use and demand which is in the winter months.  He summarized each of the water storage facilities which would be in play for this project.  When we do that on an annual basis, we have other storage tanks that would be put into the budget to get done and we would put about $95,000 to $97,000 a year in a fund to manage these assets until they are rebuilt or replaced. He presented our current road projects and a couple of additions.  He noted the roads in blue on the presentation were already planned for this year's budget.  He noted that if we do the pipe bursting on Bolivar would have to cut 28 squares in the road and it is already in bad shape.  He recommended that we go ahead and do the mill and overlay like we did on the other roads and add Church Street to the list. He provided a map of the five year plan.  Mayor Muir summarized that staff has tried to put together a cohesive plan with projects that have been discussed in the past.  Councilmember Chick asked if there were any projects that did not make the cut.  Mr Berman noted that there were some projects such as more storage tanks, but they could not be done before May which is our deadline. The ones that are most important are on the list first. Councilmember Barrett asked if the money had to be spent or could it be encumbered?  Finance Director Clayton Gray stated that he would like to see the money spent; however he did talk with Ted Christensen and we could have the funds encumbered.There was miscellaneous discussion regarding time constraints and contractors.  Finance Director explained what complications would occur if we did not spend the money in the required time frame. There was discussion regarding spending the money, what projects it would be used on, and using it within the deadline time frame.  Mayor Muir polled Council and they were in agreement on the aforementioned proposed project use for the remaining 2017 bond money. 3.TXDOT FM 455 Utility Relocation Update Staff Update on FM 455 Utility Relocation Status, Consultant Professional Service Agreements and Utility Coordination.  City Engineer, Tracy LaPiene was recognized and updated City Council on the FM 455 Utility Relocation update.  He noted that we are negotiating a separate contract with Dannenbaum  for the design of the portion of relocating utilities on the southwest corner of FM 455 and I­35 because the utilities were not originally noticed and they will need to be relocated.  Because the utilities are along I­35 they are reimbursable.  This would be better as a separate contract because it would be 100% reimbursable.  Mayor Pro Tem Bilyeu asked if he was talking about the entire project. Mr. LaPiene noted that along FM 455 there is about a half of mile north and south that is part of the FM 455 project and when Dannenbaum scoped this out they did not take this area into account. The other item with the FM 455 project they are allowing us to stay in the right­of­way and if there are any Page 2Page 6

project and when Dannenbaum scoped this out they did not take this area into account. The other item with the FM 455 project they are allowing us to stay in the right­of­way and if there are any improvements we would like to make we can get them in the right­of­way at this time rather than having to purchase easements outside of the right­of­way. He asked Dannenbaum to give him some ballpark numbers of the cost of the stuff that we would have to replace.  How is this project impacting us and what things should we add on that make most sense and what things in our master plan we can incorporate such as up­sizing and putting in 12 inch lines, etc. or let it be developer driven.  This would be brought to Council to decide which items we would want to include.

This account has been billed incorrectly since the account was established in February 2009. The error is a human error, unrelated to the billing software system. Information was miscommunicated between Public Works and Customer Service regarding the setup and billing of the account. We have reviewed the entire history on the account and have corrected every bill for the account. The net result is that the account has been overbilled and a refund should be issued. Staff has verified that the January 1st bill for the account will be billed correctly. Page 14 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO AGENDA ITEM NO. 5.

These window wraps will be dark blue background with simple pictures of our products and services in white. This would include minimal wording for the products and services also in white. These window wraps will allow for those on the inside to still see out of the building while appearing to be solid from the outside. This will also help in reducing the heat transmitted through these windows in the summer, reducing electricity by saving on cooling cost. We believe that the residence of Sanger and visitors of Sanger would be better informed of S&J Pharmacy’s ability to serve them if they better understood what the Pharmacy had to offer. Since our purchase of S&J Pharmacy in April of this year, we have researched ways to better serve our community through this business and expanded our products and services. One thing we noted is our building does not clearly state we are a Pharmacy to a person driving by. We are receiving bids for new signage on the top of the building and on the pole at the street curb and will soon be filing appropriate permits. We believe that new signage along with window wraps will inform our residents and visitors of what is available to them at the pharmacy and will improve our ability to help keep more business local. Thank You for your consideration of this variance request and letter of intent. Sincerely, Tammy and Scott Dean S&J Pharmacy Page 22 Following pages provide the mockup of our intent for applying window wraps.
