City Manager, Russell Martin and Barbara Martin 1. President Armstrong called meeting to order. 2.' Approve Minutes: February 26, 2007 I· Beverly Branch made one correction on Page 2 to correct spelling of complied to compiled. Motion to approve minutes as corrected. Seconded by Thomas Muir. Motion carried unanimously. 3. Review Financials. President Armstrong asked members if they had any questions concerning the financials. She also mentioned that the sales tax deposits are a little behind. City Secretary did advise that this month's deposit will be an estimated $98,000. She did inform the meml;>ers that Peggy Hinklewolf from the Denton Record Chronicle has contacted her regarding the increase and her question was if the increase was attributed to the beer and wine sales. Ms. Hinklewolf was advised thafthere have been some increases last year that were in the $85,000 to $88~000 and it was too soon to tell. Discussion on revenues and expenditures. Thomas Muir inquired on the interest rate for certificates of deposits. City Secretary advised that the interest rate is currently 5.12 % and mentioned that the checking account is a money market that is earning at least a quarter of per cent less than a certificate of deposit. Every month when a sales tax deposit is made to the • account, we have to wait for the certificate of deposit to mature before we can add to it. 4. Discussion on a New Park Project for Soccer Fields. City Manager addressed this item and advised that on Ranger Creek on the north end of that Park there is about 3 to 3 ½ acres that are under tax foreclosure and has been turned over to attorney for tax sale. Once this process takes place, the Sable Creek Developer will pursue the purchase of this land and at that time make the dedication to include that property. The developer will straighten Ranger Creek and will remove the brush and trees from the park land and grade the area. Glenn Ervin inquired on the 3 ½ acres that the developer is trying to get and asked if the developer is going to use that dirt to create one or two more lots and will that create a retention pond like the city has south of town. City Manager advised he does not think so. The city already has the ditch profile engineered and there will be a 6-point slope with some dirt but it will not be a hole. It will be where they have feathered those edges so the city can mow the banks. Discussion. President Armstrong advised that the City Manager has informed her that the developer has pledged to give this property to the city for dedicated park property. Paul Eddleman, Parks Chairman, then addressed the board concerning dedication of funds for the improvement of that park property. The developer will level the property and the city will be responsible for putting a crown on soccer fields to allow rain water to run off. Paul Eddleman indicated that they would like $100,000.00 dedicated to allow for the construction of a 30' x 30' square ft. concession stand to include restrooms on each end. The cost would be about $70.00 a square ft. which would run about $63,000 to build it and the rest of the funds will be utilized for crowning the fields, equipment and some landscape. Mr. Eddleman then discussed the Quail Run Project which consisted of three phases. The third phase did not get approved by City Council and he asked that those funds which were $75,000 be utilized on the soccer field project. Mr. Eddleman indicated that he is not sure whether council needs to eliminate Phase III in order for those funds to be utilized somewhere else. He plans to go back to city council to eliminate Phase III from the Quail Run Project then all the additional funds requested would be $25,000. President Armstrong inquired on how much property was to be utilized at Quail Run park for the skate park and what other project does he intend to place on that • property . . Mr. Eddleman indicated that it was about 1500 sq. ft. and later on they can do some additional things. He discussed that if additional funds were needed, they can come back and request funds. Some of that area has to be left as open green space since some of the property is detention pond area. He expressed if nothing else gets done in Quail Run, it will still be a nice park for the residents. Discussion on using the land at Quail Run Park for a practice soccer field and the costs for the fields at property at Sable Creek. There is approximately 14 acres at Sable Creek and not all the property can be utilized. The goal is to get as many fields as possible. Glenn Ervin inquired on how this ties in with the Master Plan. Paul Eddleman advised that across the street the city will have the new Fire Station, which will be an asset in case of emergency situations. On Ranger Creek, if Mr. Falls ever develops his golf course, it will incorporate the housing development with the park, golf course and the new fire station. Parking was discussed. City Manager advised that Joe Smith will be putting a walk bridge over the creek. Thomas Muir asked on whether there would be flooding problems in regards to the concession stand. Mr. Eddleman indicated he can't say until someone looks at the property and makes the determination. The land does sit higher than some of the homes in that development. President Armstrong indicated that she does not have any objection to designate the funds and the additional $25,000. She indicated that it is her understanding on listening to Mr. Eddleman that Council needs to make the decision to shift the funds. Paul Eddleman indicated the 4B approved all phases of the Quail Run Project and after it was submitted to Council they only approved Phase I and II and left Phase Ill for a future date. President Armstrong indicated that at this point in time the skate board park will not be included in Phase III of the Quail Run park project due to the opposition from the public. Discussion followed. City Secretary advised that the project needs to go to (:ouncil and after they approve it then the public hea'ring is scheduled • ,· ,~s' , .. ,,,_,...., ' . • John Springer indicated since the Master Plan is not completed yet, and he approves that these monies to. be encumbered and not used elsewhere, but suppose the Master Plan is completed and it will take a great deal more money to do the project, will they be in a better position to move on with something like this, or will they be better off to encumber the funds now not knowing exactly how it will be done. Thomas Muir indicated that-Paul Eddleman's request is to get the initial basis for approval. Discussion on the monies to encumber after the council approves. John Springer moved to approve the additional $25,000 be used at this time for Ranger Park for soccer (ields. Mr. Springer withdrew motion since it was not an action item. City Manager advised that this was not an action item, it was only a project to be considered. All board members present gave the consensus to proceed with the necessary steps on this new par}{ project. 4. List of Future Agenda Items Glenn Ervin asked if any member had recommendations for appointments to the board. He expressed that as a council member he would like to see the recommendations from the board. He also inquired if John Payne wants to continue to serve. President Armstrong asked that if any member has any suggestions that they contact Rose with their recommendation so an application can be sent. She personally would like to keep the board with only one council member to serve. This will give the public the appearance that council is not trying to take over the board and run it. 5. Adjournment Presid.ent Armstrong adjourned meeting at 7:3~ p.m . ,,,.j', ,: City of Sanger STAFF REPORT TO: ITEM: 4B Sanger Texas Development Corporation Project Update DATE: STAFF: August 21, 2006 Cecile Carson, Director of Economic Development BACKGROUND: The 48 Board and City Council authorized funding for Quail Run Park development, improvements to the Presbyterian Church, architectural and engineering plans for the downtown area and a retail study. Project implementation started in October 2006. Park Project Project has been designed and City Engineer Rob Woods has issued two bids fa~ the concrete work. The bids have been higher than estimated and Mr. Woods is currently working on an alternative construction source for the concrete work. Presbyterian Church Project Art Weinman and his staff have made three site visits to the church since June. Mr. Weinman is preparing· plans for the exterior restoration including doors, windows, roof, and painting; for utilities including air conditioning and heating and electrical and plumbing; and for interior restoration including doors, flooring, walls and ceiling, and interior painting. The following schedule has been prepared by staff and Mr. Weinman: Plans Designed Texas Historic Commission review Bid Select Contractor Construction Complete mid-August Complete mid-September to late September Issue in October Award bid in November September 2007-November 2008 During the first site visit in June, we discovered 4-8 inches of water inside the foundation. The property was not graded according to the original plans which showed a drain at the southwest comer of the church and a pipe extending to the ditch on the south side of the church. Mr. Weinman has determined that the ground elevation under the church has been altered since the original plans were drawn and the drain and pipe design will not solve the problem. He will be preparing a new plan for a pump to be placed under the church. This will potentially increase the cost estimate as we are recommending that Mr. Weinman add this work to the construction bids. Downtown Plan Nelson and Morgan Architects has prepared a general streetscape plan for sidewalk improvements and landscaping for the downtown area. The original goal was to have the plans by May 2007. The timeframe has been extended and staff will review design and funding options with the Board. Retail Study The Buxton Co. completed the study in May. Targeted retailers have been contacted and information on Sanger has been added to new web-based search system Scout. Materials are posted on the website and have been made available to property owners. City of Sanger 4B Funding Request Page 2 of2 Financial Commitments ' \ Itemized Total Cost Project ,.
