John Bucklew, 124 Freese Dr., indicated he was representing Bucklew Enterprises, and on Tuesday, January 26, he had come to city hall inquiring as to how the city was billing for utilities at Cotton Patch, he was told he was billed per unit. He understood a unit was one meter. Mr. Bucklew explained his understanding of the ordinance and the meaning of a unit. He addressed the rates in the surrounding areas. He indicated the city does not have an ordinance that supports this billing practice. Mr. Bucklew indicated he had come before council five (5) years ago when he was developing this property, at that time, he understood the city's ordinance was in line with other cities, however the city is not following the ordinance. He asked the council to consider carefully the action they would take. City Administrator indicated the standard operating procedure is to bill the minimum for multi units, he indicated in April the city had changed their computer system, and have had some billing problems, they are fixed now. City secretary referenced a memo, and the council minutes from 1994, and indicated the staff was doing what they were instructed to do. DiSCUSSion.

Councilman Mcl�eill asked how there electric was billed. Mr. Bucklew indicated the city bills the tenants directly.

City Administrator indicated Councilman James had wanted them to look at a break down of what had happened in past years, he showed a chart of the number of new homes, and the impact on the tax base. City Administrator addressed Commercial Growth: 1. Bridal Path Estates has 46.46 acres dedicated to commercial development. 2. Sanger Industrial Park of Mr. Porter's has 41 lots. 3. Sable Development, South of Lois Rd is a commercial development Art Kramer is working on. City Administrator asked Bobby Frizzell to address the impact on the school district. Mr. Frizzell indicated over the past four years the school district has grown approximately 120 students each year, and indicated there were just under 2100 students in the school district. They just opened a new school, and that has helped tremendously. The school district owns some land East of town, and may build a school there in the future. They are trying to stay on top, and plan for the future. Councilman Jenkins asked if the increase in students was mostly younger or older students? Mr. Frizzell indicated most of the families moving into Sanger are younger families, and most young families have small children, he would guess they were mostly younger students. Discussed growth of school district. City Administrator thanked Mr. Frizzell. City Administrator addressed Recreation. City Administrator addressed large lots of land, and new subdivisions, he indicated there needed to be more parks in these developments. Parks Board and Council had submitted a grant application for Railroad Park, the preliminary application had been denied, but they will probably re -submit the application. The City tries to keep up the park on the square, and do a good job. Indian Springs Park is in the flood plains area, they need direction as to what to do with that. Switzer Communuty Park by the community center is well kept, and has a nice play ground. The Library is utilized a good deal for recreation, they have programs for kids and adults. City Administrator addressed Transportation Access. Fifth Street has huge ditches and is narrow, they need to think about a different path or fix that path, the city can't continue to grow with that the only way to go. FM 455 needs to have some type of turn around, it is heavily traveled, and stacked up in the mornings. Willow/McReynolds has major problems with the bridge, and something needs to be done with it, the city has patched it but it needs to be replaced. There is some question as to where county maintains picks up and city maintenance ends. Traffic is going to increase. Mayor Kincaid asked Mr. Krueger about the long time plan to have Bonnie Brae run through to 455. Mr. Krueger indicated it was on everybody's thoroughfare plan, but there were not funds in the budget for it. Sandra Lloyd asked if there was any plan to put something on the railroad area by Willow St., especially with the park being in that area. City Administrator indicated that was the purpose of this meeting, to hear the concerns. City Administrator addressed what was in place at this time. 1. Water. In July the city put on line 5001000 gallon water storage tank, currently they are getting 250,000 gallons of water a day from Upper Trinity. They feel this will take care of the water needs for a couple of years. 2. Sewer. The city will have an additional 375,000 gallons of sewage capabilities that will probably come on line in March, that will service the city up to a population of 8,000. 3. Streets. They need to widen Fifth Street, it is not acceptable. They need to finish widening Bolivar Street. They plan to pave one-fourth of the city each year. 4. Drainage. They need to open ditches down Fifth Street. Ranger creels has caused problems for residents, they need to do something about it. City Adminstrator addressed Finances.

City Administrator indicated they are less costly to the city than bonds, and you can get things done faster with them. Nel Armstrong indicated it looked like the city borrowed a lot of money in the 1990's, but in fact they had refinanced previous loans when the interest rates had improved. City Administrator showed some maps, and indicated it was important to show the leaders of the community that the City is faced with coming up with some type of comprehensive plan, is to have some type of guide as to what they want to do, and how they want to do it. City Administrator indicated the city has approximately 5,150 people currently, so they now have a right to vote on whether or not to become a Home Rule city, they will need a commission to write that charter, and need are faced with deciding if that is what they want to do. City Administrator showed a map of the ETJ. He indicated the ETJ goes almost to Lake Ray Roberts, and this enables the city to have input on what is being built outside the city limits. Frank Ballard asked if the Lake Ray Roberts Marina was on state land. City Administrator indicated it was on Federal land. Mr. Ballard asked if we could annex that land, because it would generate taxes. City Administrator indicated he did not know. Jerry Jenkins addressed how the city had annexed land in that area towards Lake Ray Roberts. Woodrow Barton indicated the ETJ goes further out than 1/2mile around the city limits. Jerry Jenkins indicated there are two types of ETJ, one that goes 'h mile outside of the city limits and the other is voluntary annexation, which is where people volunteer to be in the ETJ in order to have city services. City Administrator addressed the ETJ, and indicated it is important for them to move quickly on annexations in order to ensure the city's station in the future. The city controls it's own destiny. Frank Ballard asked about the comment that Sanger had 5,150 people, he asked if that was according to the census. City Administrator indicated the North Texas Counsel of Governments is the census taker, and the city would have to satisfy them as to the number of citizens in Sanger. City Administrator opened up the floor for anyone to speak. Woodrow Barton, 807 N. 7`'', indicated he had graduated from SMU in 1953 and gave a brief summary of his background in engineering and his work history. He addressed Sanger's future, starting with Sanger's present, he felt most citizen's would like to keep their residential neighborhoods as they are with the exception of replacing malfunctioning underground facilities such as sewer and water systems, and rebuilding damaged streets especially older neighborhoods. He indicated he would not overlay any city street that had faulty underground systems until those systems are repaired. Mr. Barton continued to address future growth, he indicated the city should promote and facilitate commercial and industrial growth with emphasis on facilitate. He did not think much promotion would be necessary, as this type of growth is bearing down on the city now. He indicated the city was behind in getting engineering studies done for infrastructure, such as streets, water- systems, storm drainage and sanitary sewer systems that would serve and facilitate growth. He indicated the city needs to get started on the engineering studies. Mr. Barton gave some ideas where the finances could come from to pay for these studies. Mr. Barton indicated the return on investment in infrastructure for multiple interconnected industrial and business districts will be large and ever growing until growth tops out. He indicated the returns could be used to build recreation parks and other types of community projects in those areas. Andrew Foote, Marion Rd., asked what type of research the city had done concerning what the Y2K problems could impose on the city and the citizens. City Administrator indicated the City of Sanger has a computer system that has been designed to except the Year 2000 without a problem, the City of Sanger buys it's electricity from Brazos electric, the Electric Superintendent has been trying to get in writing that they are in compliance. Brazos has ensured the city that they are in compliance, but the city has not gotten it in writing. He indicated Upper Trinity Water District does not have any problems. Mr. Foote indicated it is important to make preparations. City Administrator addressed proposed water and sewer projects. Discussed bore North of town, the size and the cost of it. Jerry Jenkins asked about the possibility of a new sewer plant in the Duck Creek area. City Engineer, Mark Hill, indicated it was something to look in to, brit it will depend on how the city grows, there is a possibility it will grow more on the east side. Mr. Barton indicated he had presented an infrastructure plan to the council several weeks ago, this plan included sewer lines, water lines, storm drains and bridges. His concern is that Mr. Porter is developing that land just North of 455, and he may require only small lines to properly service his development, if all that land is developed the city may require larger lines. He asked if the city was going to tear out Mr. Porter's lines and start all over. Mr. Barton indicated the city needed engineering studies that would accommodate all of that land, so they could do it right the first time. City Administrator addressed proposed water lines, he indicated there was a lift station on Duck Creek that the city is faced with possibly refurbishing, or trying to find a way to by-pass. There is an existing lift station on Cowling Rd. that they are trying to abandon. Discussed possibilities of new and existing lift stations. Lisa Hardy, Sanger Courier, asked if the city had considered charging developers impact fees to help pay for some of the costs. Nel Armstrong indicated the city did do it for a while, but the state passed a law that made it very extensive, they discontinued it because it was cost prohibiting to do it. Discussed water and sewer line replacement. Eddie Branham, Water/Wastewater Superintendent explained the proposed water and sewer replacement plan. Mr. Barton asked if the water line on 13"' St. was in the road. Mr. Branham indicated it was not, and that he was going to ask that it be put in on the outside edge of it. Mr. Branham continued to explain the proposed water and sewer line replacement from 51" St. to 1011' St. Mr. Branham addressed water and sewer lines along Marshall St. from 5St. to 3Td St and back to Austin St., he indicated it was all 2" line, but they will bring in 6" line. Mr. Branham indicated they would like to put lire hydrants on every block. Mr. Branham explained and showed where they were proposing to put in 6" lines. City Administrator asked for input concerning priorities and time tables. Councilman Jenkins suggested he take a show of hands. There were not any citizens who felt residential growth was the main priority. About l8 citizens felt commercial growth was most important. John Springer indicated commercial growth should be linked with infrastructure needs. Almost all citizens agreed. Nel Armstrong indicated the infrastructure and commercial growth was most important, but they should also concentrate on parks and activities, she felt companies would not be interested in the town if there were not other things. Polly Dwyer indicated there were many things in Sanger that were past there prime, the city needs to look at the aesthetic view as well as streets, water , sewer, etc. She felt they needed to make the city attractive to young people because that is where small business will come from. She felt parks, trees, and landscaping are extremely important along with street development. Jeff Krueger addressed the subject of aesthetics, and indicated when Peterbuilt first thought about coming to Denton, the city gave them a tour of the area. He indicated the city spent 30 million dollars on Ryan High school, and heard a lot of complaints about the amount of money spent, but when they gave the tour of Denton, when the people saw the school that is when they made up their minds they wanted to move to Denton. He indicated the tax base in the school district and the quality of education is what promotes growth, that along with ground infrastructure. Mr. Barton agreed that they need to concentrate on existing areas, he indicated if developers develop subdivisions, they need to provide the land for the parks. Polly Dwyer indicated she was anew member to the Planning and Zoning Commission and was looking for some diaection, she noticed at their meeting they deal with two issues extensively - sidewalks, and alleys. She asked if once those are in place does the city want to maintain them. She indicated the developers are not in favor of them. City Administrator indicated sidewalks for pedestrians are desirable, alleys for trash pick up are desirable, but it is a full time job trying to repair streets, sidewalks and alleys are a burden once they begin to deteriorate. He indicated it will continue to be a dilemma, based on an individual basis depending on how the development is laid out. Mike James expressed some of his own personal idea a)Establish that all are aware the city is going to grow. . b)For council to ensure they get input from the community to plan long range growth. c)Would like to walk away with enough input to develop a short term and a long term pIan. d)Would like to address immediate needs. e)Discuss what community has to offer. f)Definitely want residential area to grow. Mike James indicated conunercial industry will bring more tax dollars to our economy. He first addressed the Strengths of the community: -Access to Lake Ray Roberts -Major interstate going through the city -Railroad Access -Inexpensive rent to small businesses -City Park/Downtown -Reasonable Tax Rate -Large volume of land available to the city. He then addressed the Weaknesses of the community: -Interstate divides town in half -Poor Infrastructure -Lacking large commercial industry -Large blocks of land owned by few people He addressed Opportunities of the community: -City can manage growth -Sale of utilities -Restoration Program/Downtown area. He addressed Threats to the community: -Outlying cities encroaching on the cityy ETJ -Deterioration of Downtown area -De-Regulation with electric Mike James indicated they needed to come up with plans to accomplish. Mr. Barton indicated the Downtown area needed to be a high priority, there are safety hazards with the broken curbs, etc. Mike James indicated the Chamber of Commerce was working on a home page for the City, this will promote tourism and could increase the Hotel tax. City Administrator agreed with Mr. Barton and indicated he has had meetings with people who have vested interest in the downtown area, they have addressed the loose gravel and sidewalks. Discussion concennnng the "Main Street" program. Discussion concerning types of businesses the city would like to come to Sanger. Jeff Morris, Electric Superintendent, indicated De- Mr. Morris indicated they are looking at adding some services, possibly appliance sales, and they are open to suggestions. Discussed mark up on electric. Jeff Morris also addressed the Fire Department, he indicated the Sanger fire department made 725 runs last year. The council has addressed putting on paid personnel, and are looking at station growth. Mr. Morris indicated the city will need to look at providing it's own ambulance service, the City of Sanger has the largest volunteer fire department in Denton County. Discussed 911 calls. Mr. morris indicated Denton County pays them $1.55.00 per run, and $345.00 for a medical run. Discussed educating volunteers, and insurance rates. City Administrator indicated the city is looking for additional space for a court and/or police department. City Administrator gave an overview: -City needs to spend effort and money to get engineering studies done to handle services. -Citizens want to see commercial growth. -Citizens want to see infrastructure. -City needs to come up with a comprehensive plan. City Administrator indicated he hopes the citizens know they care, and they want there input and ideas. Mike James suggested to have this type of meeting semi-annually. City Administrator indicated growth will be a major thing in the fuhire, and it would be a good idea to have town meetings to discuss these things. James Kristopherson indicated he works for Denton County with Judge Mosely, who wished he could be at the meeting. He felt it was refreshing to see the City Council and Chamber of Commerce working together for growth and development. He indicated the more planning they do right now, the better for the future.

Box 2451 Coppell, TX 75019 Dear Mr. Sadeghian: In the regular scheduled meeting of December 21, 1998, the City Council of the City of Sanger voted unanimously to start reading the master meter at Mariam's Mobile Home Park and billing you for all usage. We will no longer bill each individual account. You will need to make arrangements with each of your tenants effective on your February billing to pay you for their usage. This will allow you over 30 days to make these arrangements, before the due date of February 15, 1999. We will pay all refunds owed to your tenants, and all outstanding balances will be due to the City, and if not paid will be subject to disconnect. This change in procedure is due to the problems and complications that have arose with us billing the individual accounts. This is the same procedure we use in billing the Sanger Mobile Home Park. If you have any questions, please give me a call.

We agreed that we would provide a written explanation. The Plaintiff alleges that the City entered into an agreement with another party granting it exclusive right to provide solid waste collection services within the City limits. The Plaintiff alleges that the council meeting at which the agreement was considered an approved was not called, posted, or held in compliance with the Texas Open Meetings Act. The Plaintiff is seeking to have the agreement declared void. Plaintiff is not seeking any monetary relief other than his attorney's fees. The Risk Pool's obligation to provide a defense is created by the following provision of the Liability Coverage Document which states: PART I GENERAL CONDITIONS I. DEFENSE The Fund shall have the right and the duty to defend any suit against the Member or Covered Party seeking dama�s on account of such liability sIs covered in this Plan, even if any of the allegations of the suit are groundless, false or fraudulent, and may make such investigation and settlement of any claim or suit it deems expedient...

(emphasis added) Coverage for the defense of a lawsuit is determined by comparing the allegations in the most recent pleadings with the terms of the Liability Coverage Document. Because the monetary relief sought by the Plaintiffs is not considered "damages" or is otherwise excluded by Exclusion X referenced above, the Risk Pool cannot provide a defense at this time.

Those exemptions would cost $330 million in state revenue over the 2000-01 biennium. If those sales tax exemptions were to apply to cities as well, some amount of municipal revenue will be lost. How much? The comptroller estimates that the state will receive *ill in total sales tax revenue for the biennium. A $330 million loss is a reduction of 1.2 percent. During the most recently completed state fiscal year, cities collected $2,200 million in sales tax revenue for all purposes, including economic development, property tax reduction, and all other uses. Assuming that 100 percent of all sales of medicines, health aids, diapers, and internet access take place in cities (the exact figure is probably close to 100 percent), the loss of municipal tax revenue will be roughly 1.2 percent of $2,200 million — or $26.4 million — annually statewide. Roughly 55 percent of that loss will be felt in the state's 20 largest cities.

SB 1 Planning On Course TWDB Awards Initial Plan Development Grants to RWPG In December, theTWDB awarded $7.33 million in planninggrants to the 16 Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) Regional Water Planning Groups (RWPG) as partial payment toward the costs of developing regional water plans. These grants are in addition to the $228,630 in scope of work development grants that were awarded earlier this year. TheTexas Legislature passed SB 1 in 1997 and appropriated $7.56 million for funding planning costs. The revised costs for developing the 16 regions' water plans total approximately $20.2 million. Pursuant to recent mile changes, theTWDB's grant awards will be used to pay 100 percent of planning costs, while RWPG will be required to cover 100 percent of their administrative costs. The plan development costs by region and each region's allocation of th total available grant funds awarded are shown in Table l .Additional fundin needed to complete planning is shown inTable 2. These additional fundinf needs will be considered during the upcoming legislative session convening January 12. Using the grant funds awarded, RWPG will begin preparing water plane for each of their regions. The sequential steps in preparing a regional water plan are: • Describe the regional water planning area • Project population and water demands for the 50-year planning cycl • Evaluate adequacy of currentwatersupplies ���,, �;,,�� p . � } • Compare water demands to supplies to determine 50-year surplus or needs • Identify all feasible water management strategies to be studied • Evaluate water management strategies identified • Choose the water management strategies to be used to meet 50-year needs • Hold public meeting on draft water plan • Complete a draft water plan by June 1, 2000 • Submit a final water plan to the TWDB by September 1, 2000 The TWDB is required to resolve interregional conflicts and only to approve a regional water plan without such conflicts. The TWDB will incorporate the regional water plans into the next comprehensive state water plan, due September 1, 2001. After September 2001, TWDB financial assistance may be provided only to water supply projects that meet needs in a manner that is consistent with the approved regional water plans. In addition, the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission may not issue a water right for municipal purposes unless it is consistent with an approved regional water plan after 2001. More information on the status of RWPG may be accessed from the TWDB's home page at www.twdb.state.tx.us by selecting Regional Water Planning Groups. For each of the 16 RWPG, information is presented listing RWPG members; displaying the counties within the region; and providing, if available, meeting minutes, notices of upcoming meetings and progress reports of planning efforts.

Regional water planning arras were delineated by the TWDB. In December, the TWDB awarded the grants above to the 16 SB 1 regions. These grants will be used to develop a regional water plan for each area. SB 1 was an outgrowth of increased awareness of the vulnerability of T exas to drought and to the limits of existing water supplies. Cities in Disputes with Cable Companies When responding to NLC's annual survey of the "State of Aerica's Cities" local leaders in recent years have cited cable television rates one of the `'must deterio- rated conditions" in cities and towns. And with good reason. Nationally, cable TV rates have risen by 20 percent since indus- try deregulation in 1996, a pace much higher than inflation. In addition, some cable companies are being less than forthright in m meeting their franchise fee com- mitments. Two recent examples: • After years of franchise fee disputes, cable provider TCI agreed to pay Pembroke Pines, Fla., $313,000 after a city audit found discrepancies in what the company said it owed and dis- covered that TCI had been sub- mitting its franchise fee annual- ly instead of quarterly. The TCI franchise was up for renewal, and "That gave us some lever- age," said Mayor Alex Fekete. • City leaders in Cary, N.C., have frozen franchise renewal talks with Time Warner following a subscriber outcry over a recent rate hike. Time Warner rates for "full" cable ser- vice have increased by more than 30 percent ($27.13/month to $36.26/month) in four years, with "little or no improvement in services or programming dur- ing that time," according to town manager Bill Coleman. During the "freeze" period, Ell Cary officials will explore other options for cable service, such as overbuilds, municipal owner- ship, public -private partner- ships, filing an FCC complaint, and recruiting other cable providers to serve Cary. ■ Nationally, cable TV rates have risen by 20 percent sifrce a*III .Ilstr deregulation in 19��1), a pace stttcch higher than ir,i iflot-1*0110 Bringing Life to T rouaied mites: 1999 Texas Brownfields Conference March 3, 1999 The University of Texas at Austin Conference Center "Come Cral n how your community can identify and revive problem properties from national experts and Texas local governments that have succeeded in brownfield redevelopment." You are cordially invited to attend the 1999 Texas Brownfields Conference entitled "Bringing Life to Troubled Sites." The conference will be held on March 3, 1999 at the University of Texas at Austin Thompson Conference Center (see map on reverse side). The conference runs from 8:15 an to 5:00 pm with early registration beginning at 7:30 am. The conference will provide an opportunity to learn how Texas communities can successfully cleanup and redevelop brownfield sites. Brownfields are areas within a community that have been passed over for development or redevelopment due to real or perceived environmental contamination from prior uses (e.g., abandoned gas stations, dry cleaners, landfills, truck and automotive repair depots, and industrial sites). Developer's concerns over federal and state environmentally liability and potentially high cleanup costs often cause these sites to be by-passed. However, in many cases, the contamination at brownfields may be more "perceived" than real; cleanup costs may be considerably lower than anticipated; and several federal and state programs can be used to minimize local government or developer's concerns about environmental liability. Come learn how communities can leverage a number of new and existing programs and resources to bring life to troubled brownfield sites. The conference will feature: • Keynote addresses by Charles Bartsch, author of "Coming Clean for Economic Development," and Mr. Jerry Clifford, the Assistant Regional Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 6 Office. 10 • Presentations on federal and state brownfield assistance programs from representatives of the Texas Natural Resources Commission's Voluntary Cleanup Program, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Economic Development Administration, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. • Detailed case studies of successful local government efforts to transform brownfield sites into productive property uses. There is no conference fee for this conference. Lunch and refreshments will be provided. However, seating is limited to the first 2001oca1 officials that confirm attendance. We highly recommend that you confirm your intent to attend as soon as possible by email to: rinconli_r_•i%mail,ute�as,cdu or by phone to 512-471-0124 (and leave a voice mail message). • �_ a f,.t,, t.,,..., 1, y�,ur a ail or :'Dice mail meccaoe rlease leave your iiaiiie, t1ttG, address, anLL II.IGp11Vtl\. 11u111Ver n m --�- so that we can confirm your attendance.
