MEMORANDUM #592
T0: Honorable Mayor � Members of the City Council
FROM: John Hamilton, City Manage
DATE: August 17, 1990
SUBJECT: Proposed Land Exchange with John Anderson and
Ronnie Jones - Acker Street
As you know, the water service line from the Acker Street Well has been
located. If the land exchange is made, the service line would be located
within a 32 ft. road easement at the north end of the property.
Mr. John Anderson has been contacted and is planning to be present
Monday evening.
t1onsulting Gity Attorney Ron Neiman has been contacted concerning this
proposal. If the City Attorney concludes that there is no legal reason to
preclude the exchange, it would seem that the items for negotiation with
the property owners would be any costs involved in the exchange, i. e.,
survey, title, filing fees.
The material from Mr. Anderson's initial request an August 6th is
eAclosed for your review.

Dear Mr. Hamilton:
Over the last several months, the City of Sanger and the District
have been developing plans for a regional water supply system.
On May 4, 1990, I forwarded you a draft contract for review and
comment. Several comments and recommendations were received, and
the contract has been revised.
On July 5, 1990, the Board of Directors of the District accepted
the revised form of contract and authorized me to forward it to
the City of Sanger for final approval and execution. Enclosed is
a copy of the proposed contract signed by the District's legal
counsel approving it as to form and legality. Also enclosed are
ten original signature pages for execution by the City of Sanger.
Please execute all ten pages and return all signature pages to
the District (no need to return the whole contract). After
determining that sufficient parties have executed the contract to
assure project feasibility, the District will execute the
contract. We will then assemble all signature pages and return
an original signed copy to you for your files.
Also, I am enclosing two copies of the recently completed (June
1990) Supplement to the November 1989 Engineering Feasibility
Report. Some of the entities requested a synopsis of the
contract, so I developed the enclosed 2-page summary. In
addition, I am enclosing a resolution adopted by the Board of
Directors on July 5.
The resolution reflects the policy of the Board to implement the
project when sufficient parties have executed the contract to
assure project feasibility. Also, the Board requests that the
governing body of the City of Sanger notify the District within 2
months of its approval or non approval of the contract.

If the District can provide further information or assistance,
please let us know. The Board Members and I will be pleased to
meet with you and assist the governing body in considering this
very strategic proposal.
Please advise us by September 15 as to approval of the contract
and return the 10 original signature pages together with a copy
of the resolution of the governing body concerning its action on
the contract.

A critically important feature of the legislation is the
provision for Contract Membership at nominal cost, securing a 10-

Six cities have already entered into membership contracts with
the District. Several others have contracts under negotiation.
By June 1991, when the organizational period ends, the District

Enclosed is an overview of the regional program and its current
status. Please review this material carefully. Assuring
adequate and reliable utility services for your city is a
critical and strategic issue for the future.
The decision to Join or not to Join the District needs to be made

Alvord closes city landfill;
contracts with private ,�rm
By Elaine Schad
Correspondent
Alvord—The city of
Alvord is getting out of the
garbage business by Sept.1,
deciding to close its landfill
and contract for services with
a private company.
The City Council this week
awarded a contract to Texas
Waste Management of
Lewisville to provide garbage
collection service for the city
beginning Sept.1. City of-
ficials hope to discontinue use
of the city's landfill by Sept.
15, said city officials.
Alvord has decided to close
its landfill, which also has
been used by Wise County,
use of more stringent
statewide environmental
regulations due to take effect
soon, officials said. Included
in those regulations is the
requirement that any landfill
closed after the new restric-
tions take affect must be
monitored for 30 years instead
of five years, a restriction
that could prove costly to
most small citiesofficials
said.
Alvord residents will pay a
monthly fee of $5.40 for gar-
bage collection once a week, a
90-centincrease•

Trickle down theory
helps Sanger library
Trickle down economics has hit Sanger. Last yveek
when the Sanger Police Department was able to purchase
two computers and two printers with funds seized in illegal -
drugs cases, they developed a surplus of typewriters. Bright
and early Friday morning, July 6, Sanger city librarian
Vickie Elieson was knocking on Chief Benny Erwin's door.
She didn't have room for both' of the typewriters but
was more than happy to find a home at he library for one of
them. She plans to make the machine available to library
patrons as well as for library stair' use.
Ms. Elleson has been overseeing a number of summer
programs at the library aimed primarily at young readers.
Every Tuesday morning the library has summer activities
for the preschoolers and on Wednesdays the activities are
for the six to ten year -old kids. Activity on both days begins.
at 10 a.m.
Also ongoing is the Reading club for school age
youngsters as well as preschoolers. Participants can sign up
for reading as well as for weekly drawings for McDonald's
coupons. The preschoolers are in the "read to me" portion of
the Reading Club.
Vickie, who is working towards her masters degree in
library science, is enthusiastic about recent improvements
at the library and about the pending arrival of, ;iew
��i+.�acu�l�,i�„kia��t>�►..�uuWraxtl�:,��s:f,t,J�iraryp :4r.
System. Sanger's library should soon be receiving a
combination video tape player/television. Other equipment
at the library through the MILS includes a computer and
printer, a projector and a VCR.
It is through the system that the local library can
provide Inter -Library Loans, searching for and providing
books located elsewhere in the system.
During a recent tour of the library, she displayed some
of the periodicals an reference material now set up in a quiet
area for research and study purposes. She said that
currently the library has only .about six subscriptions to
popular magazines but would welcome donated
subscriptions. A few library visitors bring their fairly new
periodicals to donate to the library and, she said, more
would be welcome.
One of the library volunteers has recently sorted and
labeled back Issues of the Sanger Courier and culled
duplicate copies which are available for a new home.

Dear Colleague:
The Commission on the Bicentennial of the United
States Constitution announces the fall deadline for
the 1990-91 College -Community Forums Grant Program.
Applications must be postmarked no later than October
31, 1990. Funding decisions will be announced in
February, 1991. Thus, proposals submitted must be for
programs that begin after March 1, 1991.
Grants may now be made to institutions of higher
learning or to private non-profit organizations and
state and local public agencies. To be eligible for
funding, community organizations and colleges or
universities must work together in the planning and
presentation of the program.
The goal of the College -Community Forums Program is to
engage college faculty, community leaders and citizens
in public discussion of constitutional issues. The
Commission especially encourages programs that focus
on the Bill of Rights and subsequent amendments during
1991. The particular topics of local forums should
reflect the interests of the communities.

assistance in writing the proposals and completing the

Dear Mayor:
With the final year of the Bicentennial of the
Constitution and Bill of Rights fast approaching, we
are encouraging broad debate of our constitutional
heritage of ordered liberties, The rights secured by
the Constitution are preciou& and call forth our best
efforts to preserve them. But, a concern for
preserving our own rights cannot be separated from a
respect for the rights of others. To preserve our
rights and respect those of others, we must
understand what our rights are.
The Commission's College -Community Forums program
can help you present a spirited and informative
debate of contemporary constitutional issues in a
setting that brings together elected officials,
academics and experts, and:the general public. It is
a competitive grant program that provides funds to
organize and conduct a community event.
The attached letter describes the program and the
grant process in greater detail. We urge you to
consider this unique opportunity to increase the
understanding of rights and responsibilities in your
community.
Sincerely,
Jerr Browning J
Director of
Government Affairs
