Staff contact: David Gaines, Finance B. Bonnie Brae Detour Options - City staff have received several resident inquiries regarding route alternatives from neighborhoods north of University Drive to Denton Presbyterian Hospital while the intersection of Bonnie Brae Street and Scripture Street is closed for construction over the summer. As a reminder, the intersection of Bonnie Brae and Scripture will be closed for roadway improvements and the installation of a roundabout. The project will require a temporary full road closure of N.Bonnie Brae Street at the intersection of Scripture Street beginning Monday, June 10 for approximately 12 weeks to allow crews to safely complete construction. The alternate route to access Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital from north of W. University Dr. will be to access I-35 and travel south before taking the Oak Street Exit 468. The route to the hospital is indicated by the motorist service signs, a blue square with a white "H." This route will provide access to W. Oak Street and Scripture St. between IH-35 and Bonnie Brae Street. The intersection of W. Oak Street and Bonnie Brae will have a"Road Closed to Thru Traffic" sign as a detour for regional traffic on Bonnie Brae. Staff has a detour plan for alternative routes during construction (see attached) that is available at www.iinprovingdenton.com. Project information, schedules, and alternate routes can also be found on the Improving Denton website. Additionally, a public meeting on this project is scheduled for Thursday, June 6 at 6:00 p.m. at the Denton Civic Center (321 E. McKinney St.). Staff contact: Todd Estes, Capital Projects. C. DME General Manager- Effective June 1, 2019, George Morrow will retire from his position as General Manager for Denton Municipal Electric (DME). Chief Financial Officer, Tony Puente has been named Interim General Manager and is currently assessing the organizational needs at DME. Tony will serve in the Interim General Manager role until a new General Manager is named, which may take three to six months to complete. Staff contact: Todd Hileman, City Manager D. Kansas City Southern Railway Trips Per Day — During the May 6 City Council Luncheon, staff was asked to confirm the number of daily trips that Kansas City 2 Southern Railway(KCSR)takes through Denton per day. Staff has confirmed that KCSR makes 3-5 trips through Denton per day and does not exceed more than 5 trips during a 24-hour period. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects E. McKinney Street Tree Removal and Trimming — A recent resident complaint regarding tree growth generated a review of the rights-of-way between the 2200 and 2400 block of East McKinney Street. Following receipt of that request, the City Forester and Community Improvement Services confirmed there are 15 dead trees, substantial overgrowth, and numerous downed limbs causing obstructed roadway views along East McKinney Street. Tree clean-up efforts will begin on Saturday, June 1, 2019. The Police Department will temporarily block through traffic beginning at 7:00 a.m. on June 1 for approximately thirty minutes. The remaining clean-up will take place the week of June 3 —7, during this phase there will be north and south bound signage indicating, "Work Ahead." Adjacent property owners have been notified of the proposed work plan and schedule. Community Improvement Services has coordinated the proposed plan with Capital Projects, Police, Fire, Parks and Recreation, and Denton Municipal Electric. Staff Contact: Lancine Bentley, Community Improvement Services F. Sheraton Place — Staff received several resident inquiries regarding work that a City contractor is performing for the Sheraton Place road reconstruction project. Concerns raised include sod placement, obstruction of manhole covers, grading work, and damaged irrigation systems. Staff has inspected the contractor's work, asked the contractor to address sod and landscaping concerns,and will continue to monitor the project as it is currently 95% complete; meaning it is open to through traffic but site clean-up is still underway. Moving forward, staff will work with contractors to more proactively document the unaltered state of lawns and sidewalks prior to initiating construction so that contractors and City staff can more effectively ensure lawns and rights-of-way are in comparable or better condition at the end of a construction project than they were prior to construction beginning. Staff contact: Daniel Kremer, Public Works G. Campers and Recreational Vehicles as Rental Units — Staff was recently asked about the legality of using a recreational vehicle and/or camper as a rental unit on residential property. The Property Maintenance Code classifies trailers and campers as vehicles, which are not permitted to be used as residences or rental units. Campers and recreational vehicles may be parked in the driveway of a residence,but people should not use them as a dwelling unit. Residents wishing to rent out their campers or other recreational vehicles may do so by locating their campers in a recreational vehicle park. Staff contact: Richard Cannone, Development Services H. Commercial Recycling and Food Waste — During the May 21 City Council meeting, Council Member Davis requested information on commercial recycling and a reduced waste/food diversion program. Both of these topics are currently scheduled to be discussed during future work session items. A food diversion and organics compositing discussion is tentatively scheduled for the July 23 Council meeting, and staff is currently coordinating a date during this summer or early fall 3 for the Mandatory Recycling for Commercial and Multi-family discussion. Staff Contact: Brian Boerner, Solid Waste I. Windsor Traffic Control Devices — During the May 21 City Council meeting, Council Member Davis requested a status update on the traffic control devices for the intersection of Windsor and Bonnie Brae and the intersection of Windsor and Hinkle. Windsor and Bonnie Brae will be signalized with the Bonnie Brae Expansion Phase 6 project; project construction is scheduled to begin in February 2020. Windsor and Hinkle is currently under construction, after the project is completed the intersection will be an all-way stop. Projected completion for the Windsor/Hinkle project is November 2019. Staff contact: Todd Estes, Capital Projects J. Traffic Safety at Unicorn Lake and Wind River—Unicorn Lake and Wind River have been added to the list of intersections to be reviewed as funding is identified for safety upgrades and potential signalization. The process for reviewing intersections is as follows: 1. Engineering review and analysis of vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic volumes on all approaches; number and angle of approaches; approach speeds; sight distance available on each approach; and reported crash experience 2. Location must satisfy State and Federal criteria 3. Review of other less restrictive solutions 4. Selection of appropriate traffic control sign(yield or stop) 5. Installation of appropriate signage. Please see the attached explanation on the Federal and State Guidelines on placing stop signs. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects K. May 23 DCTA Board of Directors Meeting—At the request of City Council, staff will be including a summary of pertinent topics that are discussed at each Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) Board of Directors meeting. The following is a brief overview of changes regarding the DCTA bus operations that go into effect next week. At the May 23 DCTA Board meeting, Kristina Holcomb, Deputy CEO for DCTA reported that on June 2 the contract for bus operations and maintenance with First Transit will expire and bus operators will transition from being Transit Management of Denton County employees (First Transit's sub corporation) to North Texas Mobility Corporation (NTMC) employees. Through the transition, passengers will not see any difference except that operators may be wearing NTMC nametags or carrying NTMC lunch bags. NTMC is the local government corporation that DCTA recently created to have a greater impact on DCTA bus operations and have the ability to manage performance of the bus operations staff. DCTA anticipates that over time there will be recognized operational efficiencies, decreases in maintenance-related road 4 calls, and improvements to the overall passenger experience through enhanced reliability. Mayor Watts, who was in attendance at the May 23 meeting as City of Denton's DCTA Board representative, requested a more detailed presentation on NTMC. DCTA staff plans to go into greater detail about this new program at the June 12 Executive Committee meeting for new Board members and will also provide an overview at the June 20 DCTA Board work session. Ms. Holcomb has indicated that both meetings will include discussions regarding the NTMC organizational structure and benefits of having a local government corporation. Staff will provide updates following the June Executive Committee and Board work session meetings. Staff contact: Mario Canizares, City Manager's Office L. Dallas and Teasley Intersection Project Update —The Dallas/Teasley intersection project is currently 75% complete with a projected completion date of June 28, 2019. The projected completion date is weather dependent. Below is an overhead picture of the Dallas/Teasley intersection project as of May 7,2019. Staff contact: Todd Estes, Capital Projects may,- M. Employee Ethics Policy Comparison—On May 21, 2019, Council Member Davis asked staff to conduct research on the gift policies of peer cities and to determine if those policies have specific provisions for public safety personnel. Staff polled Lewisville,Carrollton,Coppell,Richardson,Flower Mound,Grand Prairie,Plano, Frisco, Farmers Branch, and Grapevine—all of which currently have an employee ethics policy. Attached is a matrix outlining the research that staff conducted. Other than a minor nuance reported from the City of Richardson, the research found that no peer cities differentiated between general employees and public safety officers when restricting the acceptance of gifts. In the City of Richardson, the only difference was that Police Officers were required to turn-in all received gifts to the Police Chief who then addresses the gift in accordance with Civil Service rules and regulations. Despite allowing officers to turn-in any gifts 5 received to the Police Chief, the City of Richardson's Code of Ethics states that Police Officers are not allowed to accept gifts. Staff contact: Cassey Ogden, Procurement and Compliance N. Taliaferro Street — Staff recently received a request from a resident to consider reconnecting Taliaferro Street so that it connects through to Bolivar and N. Locust Streets. Taliaferro Street was disconnected from N. Locust in 1987 as a part of the N. Locust Street paving project due to the narrowness of Taliaferro Street coupled with the significance of the grade change between the existing Taliaferro Street(at its eastern terminus) and the newly established grade line of N. Locust. In November of 2004,a resident living on Taliaferro exchanged correspondence with City staff regarding the removal of the temporary disconnection of Taliaferro. In September of 2005, staff conducted an analysis to determine if a single lane, one- way street or a two lane,two-way street would be appropriate. Following the 2005 analysis, staff concluded that Taliaferro should remain disconnected. In order to open Taliaferro Street, the street would need to be brought up to City Standards (width,curb,gutter,etc.)for a single lane,one-way street with no on-street parking due to safety concerns regarding the width of the street,visibility from N. Locust, and the issue with the grade line of N. Locust. Staff continue to have the same concerns as were raised in 2005, and do not advise re-opening Taliaferro Street. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Project O. Home Improvement Program Video—The City recently launched an educational video to inform residents on how the City of Denton provides programs to assist low and moderate-income homeowners who cannot afford to complete major and minor home repairs that, if left unattended,would jeopardize the health and safety of occupants. This video will run frequently on DTV, be available on the City's website, the City's YouTube channel, and be shared via the City's social media channels. The video can be viewed on YouTube at the following link: https://youtu.be/ogvcgCb34PI. Staff contact: Billy Matthews, Public Affairs P. Assuming Maintenance of a Private Road — Capital Projects staff were recently asked to outline the process required for the City to assume ownership and maintenance of private roadways and to provide an estimate on upgrades required for the City to assume ownership of Carpenter Road. The City can assume ownership and maintenance of private roadways after the current owners bring the road up to City standards. Owners need to contact the Development Services Department to initiate plat changes for rights-of-way/easements.Replatting would be required, and all property owners adjacent to the roadway would need to be involved in the replatting. Specifically for Carpenter Road, the City estimates a minimum cost of$200,000, which will provide an estimated 550' standard width road at —$100 per square yard including curb and gutter and engineering costs — that estimate does not include design, fees, other utilities (water, wastewater, and drainage), or beautification. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects Q. Gregg Street On-Street Parking—City staff hosted a community meeting on May 2 with residents from the Oak/Hickory neighborhood to discuss on-street parking and traffic safety along the Oak Street and Hickory Street corridor. One of the main concerns raised was the hazards created by the on-street parking along Gregg 6 Street between Fulton Street and Denton Street. The segment of Gregg Street between Fulton Street and Denton Street is approximately 25 - 28 feet in width and experiences heavy on-street parking on both sides due to its proximity to the University of North Texas (UNT) campus. Given the narrow width of the street and a high parking demand,the space available for two-way travel along this street is approximately 10 to 12 feet. Additionally, the Fire Code requires a street to be a minimum of 26 feet for on-street parking on one side and 32 feet for on-street parking on both sides. This requirement provides the necessary space essential for access and deployment of fire equipment. The current street width does not provide sufficient capacity to legally permit on-street parking on both sides of Gregg Street between Fulton Street and Denton Street as it does not satisfy the requirement included in the Fire Code. Based on a review of existing parking conditions, the available street width for two-way traffic along Gregg Street between Fulton Street and Denton Street, and further review of the Fire Department access and response needs, staff recommends restricting parking on the north side of the street. This will allow emergency vehicles to respond to public safety calls and allow for the safe deployment of Fire Department equipment. Staff have notified the property owners along the impacted segment of Gregg Street about the proposed on-street parking restrictions to ensure residents and property owners have an opportunity to provide feedback. Letters were mailed to property owners on May 24 and door hangers were placed on properties on May 29. The request for restricting on-street parking along Gregg Street will be presented to the Traffic Safety Committee on June 3. Based on direction received from the Traffic Safety Committee, this request will be presented to the City Council for review and approval in July. Once approved by City Council, staff can implement parking restriction within three to four weeks of the approval. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects R. Quiet Zone Update—Union Pacific Railroad has 16 at-grade crossings within the City of Denton. Staff is currently working on establishing Quiet Zones along four at-grade crossings(McKinney Street,Hickory Street, Sycamore Street,and Prairie Street) located in the downtown area. Due to considerable involvement of the railroad in the implementation process, it typically takes 18 to 24 months to establish a Quiet Zone. In the last 18 months, City staff have worked with a consultant to coordinate a joint effort with Union Pacific (UP) and Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) in establishing the Quiet Zones. Early last year, a diagnostic review was completed which determined the improvements required at the crossings in the downtown segment. Approximately eight months ago, UP went through significant organizational changes, which translated in a reduction in staffing levels that resulted in a significant delay (6 — 8 months) for the downtown Quiet Zone project. Earlier this year,UP hired a consultant to augment its staff and work on pending projects throughout the state. City staff have worked closely with the UP consultant to move this project from the design phase to construction phase. Based on latest estimates, this project is scheduled to be completed by September 2020. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects S. Hickory Street Project Update — The Hickory Street project includes the replacement of aging infrastructure along Hickory Street between Bonnie Brae and Carroll Boulevard, which includes pavement, sidewalks, curb/gutter and utilities such as water and wastewater. The replacement of the majority of the utilities within the project limits has been completed. The street rehabilitation work (pavement, curb/gutter, and sidewalk) is divided into two segments; the first segment between Bonnie Brae and Welch Street is currently under construction and is has a projected completion date of October 2019. It should be noted that the last few blocks in the first segment (between Avenue B and Welch Street) have retail uses on one or both sides. As such, the construction along these blocks was scheduled for the summer months to minimize the impact of construction on the retail businesses. Construction along the last remaining blocks will begin June 3 and will be completed by the end of October 2019.The second segment of Hickory Street between Welch Street and Carroll Boulevard is currently under design. The construction along this segment is scheduled to begin in September 2019 and completed by October 2020. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects T. Temporary Lane Closures on Hobson Lane —Friday, May 31 and Saturday, June 1 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., traffic control flaggers will be in place at Hobson Lane at the intersection of FM 1830/Country Club Road. During this time, crews will be completing pavement repairs due to recent utility work and signage will be posted to alert motorist of the traffic control flaggers in place. Staff contact: Stephanie Yates, Public Affairs U. Interim KDB Manager — Julie Anderson, Program Manager for Keep Denton Beautiful(KDB)resigned, effective May 30, 2019. We wish Julie the best in her new career, and would like to express our appreciation for all her great work as KDB Program Manager. Autumn Natalie,KDB Event and Outreach Coordinator, has been appointed as interim Program Manager. Autumn served as interim Program Manager during 2017, and has the expertise and experience needed to ensure continuation of projects and programs as we complete the process to fill the Program Manager position.

The City Council schedule for 2019 has 22 work/regular session meetings and 27 luncheons, 2nd Tuesday, or 4th Tuesday meetings. In order to provide a drop off location for the children, the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) must meet requirements outlined in the Texas Administrative Code for child care. All child care facilities or programs must be licensed by the State or receive an exemption from licensing. Criteria that may allow a program to be eligible for an exemption include the room used for child care is on-premise, the parent can be contacted in person at all times, care does not exceed 4.5 hours per day, and care does not exceed 12 hours per week. (Table 1) The Department of Family and Protective Services is the agency responsible for regulating child care programs and facilities. Licensing standards include additional background checks, training, the retention of vaccination records, and building requirements such as handwashing stations and bathroom facilities. If the City cannot meet the licensing standards, staff would need to submit a description of the program as well as any additional requested documents to verify the proposed program meets criteria eligible for an exemption. The Department of Family and Protective Services provides notification within 21 days, after all documentation is received, on whether or not the request for exemption is granted or denied. Should the exemption not be granted, the facility would have to be licensed, significantly increasing resources to provide the service at a reoccurring cost of$1,600/year. DISCUSSION: PARD currently offers licensed preschool programs and unlicensed camp programs. In all programs, children under the age of three (3) are accompanied by an adult who is either present for the program or actively participating in the program. The only drop-off care available is at North Lakes Recreation Center for adult membership holders particpanting in classes /programs at the center. Children must be at least eight (8) weeks old with average care given an hour at a time. If child care services were to be made available, based on experience and consistency with current programs, PARD would recommend child care for children beginning at age three (3) years (potty trained) to 12 years with a 12:1 ratio of children to staff members and, a minimum of two (2) staff members at all times. A set end time of 9:00 p.m. is also recommended. An exemption to licensing would have to be pursued in order to care for children at City Hall. If a room is not available at that location, the Civic Center could serve as a location if the Civic 69 Date: May 31, 2019 Report No. 2019-110 Center underwent all licensing requirements. However, this would take the use of the Civic Center out of the mix for rentals or additional City meeting needs on these days. Under the following assumptions: 1. Exemption to licensing is granted 2. Minimum two (2) staff members at a cost of$3,320 each(12.00/hr+FICA) 3. Set end time of 9:00 p.m. 4. Eight(8) hours during work/regular session(22 meetings = 176 hours) 5. Three (3) hours during luncheons, 2nd Tuesday or 4th Tuesday meetings (27 meetings = 81 hours) The minimum costs to provide staffing for child care services would be approximately $6,640 annually for an estimated 257 hours of meeting time. The availability of space at City Hall and program supplies costs are additional considerations to providing the service. CONCLUSION: Should City Council wish to offer childcare during City Council meetings, funding will need to be allocated during the budget process and a permanent location in City Hall would need to be identified, which could be difficult considering the limited meeting space in the building. The decision to pursue licensing will be determined by Council direction.

BACKGROUND: North Lakes Recreation Center is currently opened Monday-Thursday 5 a.m. - 10 p.m., Friday, 5 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. - 4 p.m. Denton Community Church reserves North Lakes Recreation Center Sundays from 9 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. generating approximately $20,000 per year in revenue. Beginning October 1, 2018,North Lakes expanded hours, opening thirty (30) minutes earlier Monday through Saturday and closing forty-five (45) minutes later on Saturday. North Lakes' users were surveyed prior to the change in hours and staff followed participant feedback. Very few respondents requested additional hours on Sunday. North Lakes Recreation Center is currently booked on Sunday's through the end of the year. To open the center for public use,North Lakes Recreation hours of operation could be increased by four(4)hours on Sunday afternoons. A supplemental package would be submitted through the budget process. The request would include .13 FTEs for a recreation leader at $3,305 per year. Staff recommends having two staff members on property at all times for safety and management purposes for a total cost of$6,610 annually. CONCLUSION: Parks and Recreation is in the process of updating the department's masterplan which will help identify future growth opportunities for the department. Staff recommends maintaining the current hours of operation for North Lakes Recreation Center and continually surveying participants for possible expansion of hours in the future.

At that time, an overview of the vetting, appointment, terms, and qualifications process for prospective board, commission, and committee members will be detailed. During the June 18 Work Session, elected officials will be provided with binders that outline current board composition and highlight board seats that are coming open including those appointments that are specific to an individual City Council member as well as at-large positions at that time. In addition to producing a binder, information on board and commission vacancies will also be posted online so that residents can more readily identify which board seats are coming open. To further refine the application process itself, the Board and Commissions application has been updated to include the following: • Voter Registration Number or Date of Birth—In most all cases,board members are required to be registered voters of the City. Historically, this has been taken at face value at the time the application is filed. The only way to verify voter registration status is to have an individual's voter registration number or date of birth. Online search for voter verification has to be exact, and cannot be made by name/address alone. Obtaining the information at time of application will help facilitate this very important qualification. • Applicant Signature — Historically, a signature on the application has not been required. The application now provides for an electronic signature. This is an extra feature that officiates the submission as well as affirms the information entered on the application. Instructions will be included on the electronic signature entry feature. • For Office Use Only—The bottom of the application now contains tracking information for internal uses. This will make it easier to track an appointee's service record. This addition has no effect on the applicant's completion of the application itself. A copy of the application is attached. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly.

DISCUSSION: The Real Estate Division provided a list of eleven surplus properties for review (Exhibit 1). Four were immediately excluded from review (highlighted in red). Residential uses are not allowed in the zoning districts where three properties on the list are located(37239, 37242, and 37244). One is not official surplus at this time (27017). The remaining properties could be available but most have limitations based on how the property was originally secured and certain zoning restrictions affecting the amount of land available for development. ORIGINAL PROPERTY ACQUISITION AND STATUS Information regarding which department originally acquired the property and the project use that was intended is listed in Figure 1 below. The status column lists any notes related to the property's current status and includes any limitations on the property's use summarized as follows. 1. Current or future staging area for public works projects (26978, 37239, 155723) 2. Subject to easements (33416, 76394, 155723) 3. Any future sale must be by sealed bid(155723) 4. Sewer line runs diagonally across property (161512) 5. Reverter Clause in deed(161512) 6.

Drainage: Paisley Vacant lot, replatted. Lot was St Drainage purchase with Utility Bond 636456 602 Rose ST Funds and cannot be used by $21K Improvement another department without Project going back to the voters. Therefore, the only property without a current limitation is 205224 at N Bell Avenue at Peach St. However, staff would need to get a cost to remove the footings. In addition, there are zoning and lot size considerations. The property is zoned NRMU-12 (Neighborhood Residential Mixed Use 12) and proposed MN(Mixed Use Neighborhood)but is only 0.24 acres in size. Even if there were properties that were not restricted, there are zoning requirements and lot size considerations that affect the amount of available land for development. Requirements could only be fully assessed when a development project is presented for a property. Below is a list of zoning requirements that would be considered when determining how much, if any of the site could be developed for housing: • Setbacks • Landscape Requirements • Buffering and Screening • Lot Coverage (i.e.,percentage or number of the lot that can be covered with pavement or a building structure) • Parking • Easements • Gas Wells • Protected Trees • Canopy Coverage • ESA(Environmentally Sensitive Areas) • Flood Plains NEW MARKET TAX CREDITS Council Member Armintor also inquired about"distressed zones" and if they are eligible for New Market Tax Credits (NMTC). The program provides tax credit incentives to investors for equity investments in certified Community Development Entities who then invest in low-income communities. By example, NMTC can be used for the "Community Impact" portion of the application when it commits to providing at least 75 percent of its Qualified Low-Income Community Investment (QLICIs) in "highly distressed" areas. Such areas include census tracts with (1) poverty rates in excess of 30 percent, (2) median family income that does not exceed 60 percent of statewide median family income or the metropolitan area median family income, 88 Date: May 31, 2019 Report No. 2019-114 whichever is applicable, or (3) unemployment rates at least one and a half times the national average. There are at least six Census Tracts in the City of Denton that would meet the criteria that includes tracts with poverty rates in excess of 30 percent, for a project that could utilize New Market Tax Credit incentives. Properties in Census Tract 211 (26978, 27017, 33416, and 76394) would be in a qualified"distressed area". CONCLUSION: Based on this analysis, there is no surplus property currently without at least one limitation related to either how property was originally secured, zoning, or lot size that would allow it to be suitable for the creation of affordable housing. Staff will continue to monitor any future property that would be considered and approved as surplus by City Council for potential affordable housing opportunities.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council notice of recent bond credit ratings from Fitch Ratings (Fitch) and Standard & Poor's (S&P) for the upcoming GO and CO bond sales. The City Council is scheduled to consider adoption of bond ordinances to authorize the bond sales on June 4, 2019. DISCUSSION: On April 16, 2019, the Audit/Finance Committee received a presentation on the City's FY 2018- 19 Adopted CIP, planned bond sales and the Notice of Intention ordinance to issue COs. The Audit/Finance Committee unanimously recommended approval to forward the upcoming bond issuance to the City Council for consideration. On April 23, 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 19-830 directing the publication of a Notice of Intention to issue COs. The City Council is scheduled to consider adoption of bond ordinances to authorize the bond sales on June 4, 2019. On May 8th and May loth, staff and the City's financial advisor, Hilltop Securities Inc., participated in conference calls with analysts from Fitch and S&P to discuss the City's financials and upcoming GO and CO bond sales. As a result of these conference calls, and a review of financial information, both S&P and Fitch assigned a rating of `AA+' to the City's upcoming bond sales. This is the second highest rating offered by either rating agency. There is no change to either rating from the prior year and both indicated a stable rating outlook for the City. For your review, staff has attached the rating reports and a ratings chart for all three rating agencies which includes Moody's. Moody's has not rated the City for the upcoming bond sales. On May 29, 2019, staff and the City's financial advisor participated in a surveillance rating conference call with Moody's on the City's outstanding general obligation debt. When their report is available, staff will provide an update to City Council on this separate rating. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

The COS are additionally secured by a pledge of surplus revenues of no more than$1,000 from the city's utility system. Rating Outlook Stable Analytical Conclusion The 'AA+' Issuer Default Rating (IDR) and GO rating reflect exceptionally strong operating performance, supported by strong revenue growth prospects, ample revenue-raising capacity and sound expenditure flexibility. The ratings also reflect the expectation for continuation of the moderate but slightly elevated long-term liability burden. Economic Resource Base: With a population of about 136,000, Denton is located at the northern end of the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area. The local economy features institutes of higher education, a regionally prominent medical sector and a strong warehousing and manufacturing base, leveraging the city's multimodal transportation network. Key Rating Drivers Revenue Framework: 'aaa' Fitch Ratings expects Denton's diverse and expanding tax base to continue to grow at a pace in excess of U.S. GDP. Strong revenue-raising capacity is supported by a tax rate well below the statutory cap. Expenditure Framework: 'aa' The city's pace of spending is aligned with revenue growth. Discretion with respect to workforce and other operating costs provides the city with flexibility to address future uncertainties, including economic slowdowns. Carrying costs do not pressure the budget; however, debt issuances for capital needs are expected to keep carrying costs somewhat elevated. Long-Term Liability Burden: 'a' Currently at 23% of estimated personal income, long-term liabilities place a slightly elevated Analysts but still moderate burden on the resource base over time considering likely debt issuance Emmanuelle Lawrence +1 512215-3740 plans to address regional growth needs. The city's net pension liability contributes a modest emmanuelle.lawrence@fitchratings.com amount to its long-term liability burden. Nancy Rocha +1 512 215-3741 Operating Performance: 'aaa' nancy.cy.rocha@fitchratings.com p g Fitch anticipates Denton would maintain strong financial flexibility in an economic downturn based on relatively stable revenues and sound expenditure flexibility. The city consistently maintains a solid financial cushion. www.fitchratings.com May 29, 2019 122 FitchRatings Rating History (IDR) Rating Sensitivities Outlook/ Liability Burden: Denton's IDR and related ratings assume that liability levels will remain Rating Action Watch Date AA+ Affirmed Stable 5123119Date generally consistent with current levels, placing a slightly elevated but moderate burden on the AA+ Assigned Stable 3/19/12 resource base. Credit Profile Denton's location at the convergence of Interstates 35 East and West and ready access to air and rail transportation have contributed to its strong warehousing and manufacturing base.The city is home to sizable distribution centers such as Target, Aldi, Fastenal and WinCo. Its diverse manufacturers include Safran, Flowers Baking Company, TetraPak, and Peterbilt Motors. Denton is also known for its institutions of higher education (University of North Texas and Texas Woman's University) and regionally prominent medical sector. The city's growing health care facilities serve north Texas and southern Oklahoma. These institutions include Columbia Medical Center Denton, Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, and The Heart Hospital Baylor Denton. Fiscal 2019 TAV, at$11.3 billion, represents about a 24% increase over fiscal 2017 TAV. The city's management typically budgets for an annual 4% TAV increase; however for the past several years, TAV growth has exceeded budget projections due to strong residential, commercial and industrial growth. Additional development is reported across the city's commercial, industrial and residential property base. The city's ample developable land positions it well for ongoing solid growth over the medium to long term. Revenue Framework Taxes, account for the bulk of the city's operating revenues. Based on fiscal 2018 audited results, property tax receipts accounted for 40% of general fund revenues followed by sales tax receipts(34%). Fitch believes solid revenue growth will be maintained, in line with historical performance. The city has experienced strong and continual tax base growth, mirroring the expanding regional economy. Denton's fiscal 2019 total ad valorem tax rate of $0.62048 per $100 of TAV includes a maintenance and operations rate of$0.40543 and debt service rate of$0.21505. The current tax rate is well below the constitutional and city charter cap of $2.50, thus providing ample revenue raising flexibility. If a proposed tax rate results in an 8% year-over-year operating levy increase (based on the prior year's values), the rate increase may be subject to election if petitioned by voters. Expenditure Framework Similar to most cities, public safety is the city's largest general fund category, comprising nearly 60%of fiscal 2018 outlays. The pace of spending is likely to remain at the level of revenue growth based on the expected moderate pace of population growth and the ongoing strength of revenues, including a diverse Related Research tax base. Fitch Rates Denton,TX's$43.82MM GOs and 2004044MM COs'AA+';Outlook Stable(May The city maintains flexibility with respect to headcount and salary arrangements and through Related Criteria the discretionary nature of its pay-as-you-go capital spending program as well as its annual U.S.Public Finance Tax-Supported Rating contributions to funding street improvements. Carrying costs represent 20% of governmental Criteria(April 2018) spending and reflect a 10-year debt amortization rate of 55%. The city has a sizable multiyear Denton,Texas 2 May 29,2019 123 FitchRatings capital improvement program, and plans to issue additional debt over the near term. As such, Fitch anticipates carrying costs to remain around 20%. Moreover, the city's pension accounts for almost half of carrying costs; and, other post-employment benefits costs are minimal. Long-Term Liability Burden Fitch expects Denton's long-term liabilities, currently 23% of personal income, to remain elevated but in the moderate range based on growth in both debt and personal income. Overlapping debt makes up the bulk of the city's long-term liability burden. Denton has a robust multiyear capital improvement plan. Based on this plan,the city expects to finance more than $200 million in capital needs via tax supported debt, through 2023. Officials have expressed plans to approach voters for additional bonding authority over the next six to 12 months. Management has conducted a needs assessment and preliminary bond package figures reflect about $210 million. Moreover, the city has roughly $15 million remaining authorized, but unissued debt from its 2014 bond referendum. The city's pensions are provided through the Texas Municipal Retirement System, an agent multiple-employer defined-benefit plan, and the Denton Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund, a single-employer plan. Under GASB Statement 68, the city reports a fiscal 2018 net pension liability(NPL)of$79 million for both plans combined, with fiduciary assets covering 86%of total pension liabilities at the plans'6.75% investment return assumption. Using a more conservative Fitch-adjusted 6% investment return assumption, the ratio of assets to liability declines to 78% and the NPL rises to$140 million. Operating Performance Fitch expects Denton to maintain the highest gap closing capacity through an economic downturn. For details, see Scenario Analysis, page 4. The city's has a history of strong budgetary management, as demonstrated by its favorable operating performance. Officials have consistently maintained reserve levels in accordance to its formal policy, which includes a 20% spending floor plus a 5% resiliency reserve (25% combined total). The city has demonstrated a practice of funding non-recurring expenditures with favorable revenue performance and taking advantage of economic upturns to maintain its financial cushion. Fitch expects the city to continue managing its resources prudently to maintain a strong financial cushion.

The outlook is stable. The bonds are payable from a direct and continuing ad valorem tax levied,within the limits prescribed by law, on all taxable property within the city. The certificates are payable from revenue from a direct and continuing ad valorem tax levied,within the limits prescribed by law, on all taxable property within the city and a limited surplus net revenue pledge of its utility system,not to exceed$1,000. However,we rate the certificates based on the city's ad valorem pledge. State statutes limit the maximum ad valorem tax rate for home-rule cities to $2.50 per$100 of taxable assessed valuation(AV)for all city purposes.Administratively, Texas'attorney general will permit the allocation of$1.50 of the $2.50 maximum tax rate for all GO debt, as calculated at the time of issuance and based on 90%tax collections. In fiscal 2019,the city is levying 62.048 cents: 21.505 cents for debt service and the remaining 40.543 cents for operations.We understand management does not plan to raise the tax rate in fiscal 2020 to service the series 2019 GO bonds and series 2019 certificates. Based on the application of our criteria,titled"Issue Credit Ratings Linked To U.S. Public Finance Obligors' Creditworthiness" (published Jan. 22, 2018, on RatingsDirect),we do not differentiate between Denton's limited-tax GO debt and general creditworthiness.We think that the city's ability to meet debt service and continue to operate successfully has a strong link to its creditworthiness and that there are no significant resource fungibility limitations. We understand officials intend to use series 2019 bond proceeds to finance various improvements--including street, stormwater drainage and flood control, and park system--and refinance the city's series 2010 combination tax and revenue refunding bonds for debt service savings. They plan to use series 2019 certificate proceeds to finance wastewater system, electric light and power system, streets, and municipal building improvements;acquire technology equipment; construct a public safety facility;and purchase vehicles and equipment. www.spgtobal.com/ratingsdirect 128 May 20,2019 2 Summary:Denton,Texas;General Obligation We expect ongoing economic development in Denton will likely continue to support property and sales tax growth, which are the city's two leading revenue sources.We believe the city will continue to benefit from its access to the broad and diverse metropolitan statistical area(MSA),which we view as a positive credit factor. In our opinion, Denton's very strong management,which has resulted in consistently strong budgetary performance,further supports the city's credit quality.We think very strong management will likely be key to Denton successfully navigating challenges of rapid growth. The rating reflects our opinion of the city's: (FMA)methodology; 2018,which closed with a slight operating deficit in the general fund but an operating surplus at the total governmental fund level in fiscal 2018; 12.1x governmental debt service,and access to external liquidity we consider strong; direct debt that is 108.4%of total governmental fund revenue; and Very strong economy We consider Denton's economy very strong. The city,with an estimated population of 131,388, occupies roughly 90 square miles in Denton County, 35 miles north of Dallas and Fort Worth, at the convergence of east and west Interstate 35. It is in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington MSA,which we consider broad and diverse. The city also benefits,in our view,from a stabilizing institutional influence. It has a projected per capita effective buying income at 90.3%of the national level and per capita market value of$86,134. Overall,market value has grown by 9.5%during the past year to$11.3 billion in fiscal 2019. County unemployment was 3.3%in 2017. The local economy--largely based in retail,manufacturing, distribution, education, and health care--has recently grown in tandem with robust geographic and economic expansion in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.As home to both the University of North Texas and Texas Women's University,the city also benefits from a stabilizing institutional presence,in our view. Primary leading city employers include: www.spgtobal.com/ratingsdirect 129 May 20,2019 3 Summary:Denton,Texas;General Obligation The local property tax base is very diverse with the 10 leading taxpayers accounting for just 5.4%of taxable AV in fiscal 2019. Taxable AV has demonstrated steady year-over-year growth since fiscal 2014, and management conservatively expects this trend to continue at a rate near 4%annually. Both residential and commercial developments have contributed to strong AV growth recently. Officials expect commercial development will likely remain strong during the next few years with an assortment of new manufacturing and distribution,retail,hotel, and restaurant employers coming online.United States Cold Storage closed on a 40-acre site in 2018;it plans to offer storage,repacking, case picking, distribution, and transportation solutions for production facilities in the U.S. and Mexico.The company estimates it will invest$34 million in the project; city estimates have the project adding$28 million of new ad valorem value. Denton is also negotiating with Cole &Hunter Ranch representatives for a coordinated 6,000-acre,master-planned development that would have an estimated 40-year buildout and include an estimated 15,717 single-family units, 5,090 multifamily units, 424 commercial acres, and 101 industrial acres. Very strong management We view the city's management as very strong,with strong financial policies and practices under our FMA methodology,indicating financial practices are strong,well embedded, and likely sustainable. Key policies and practices include management's: favorable budget variance by fiscal year-end; the budget is developing through budget-to-actual reports; council; additional 5%resiliency reserve,for 25%combined,to safeguard against unusual financial circumstances or economic downturns. Strong budgetary performance Denton's budgetary performance is strong,in our opinion.The city had slight deficit operating results in the general fund at 1.5%of expenditures but surplus results across all governmental funds at 5.3%of expenditures in fiscal 2018. Our assessment accounts for the fact that we expect budgetary results could improve from fiscal 2018 results during the next few fiscal years. We have adjusted our ratios for what we view as recurring expenditures out of the general fund and capital outlay across all governmental funds financed with debt. Management attributes fiscal 2018 performance largely to strong sales tax collections and other revenue and reduced expenditures that helped decrease the planned use of reserves for one-time capital needs to just$1.45 million from$5.68 million.We believe budgetary results during the next two fiscal www.spgtobal.com/ratingsdirect 130 May 20,2019 4 Summary:Denton,Texas;General Obligation years could improve somewhat. The city's fiscal 2019 projected results are no worse than break-even operations, and officials expect to adopt a balanced fiscal 2020 budget. In fiscal 2018,property taxes generated 48%of general revenue,followed by sales taxes at 27%and franchise fees at 19%.All have been reliable revenue sources for the city recently. Very strong budgetary flexibility Denton's budgetary flexibility is very strong,in our view,with available fund balance in fiscal 2018 at 28%of operating expenditures, or$30.3 million. The city has historically maintained very strong reserves, exceeding 28%of operating expenditures since fiscal 2011 and providing flexibility over its formal policy of maintaining 20%of budgeted expenditures.With fiscal year-end 2019 expectations of near break-even operations, coupled with an expected balanced budget for fiscal 2020,we expect budgetary flexibility will likely remain very strong during the next few fiscal years. Very strong liquidity In our opinion, Denton's liquidity is very strong,with total government available cash at 146.4%of total governmental fund expenditures and 12.1x governmental debt service in fiscal 2018. In our view,the city has strong access to external liquidity if necessary. Denton's access to the market during the past two decades,including numerous GO and revenue-backed bond issuances, demonstrates its strong access to external liquidity. It has historically maintained what we consider very strong cash;we do not believe cash will likely materially weaken during the next few fiscal years. All city investments comply with Texas statutes and its own formal policy. Investments were in treasuries, agencies, certificates of deposit, commercial paper,municipal bonds, and local government investment pools at fiscal year-end 2018;we consider none of these aggressive. In addition,we have not identified any contingent liabilities that could pose a material liquidity risk. Therefore,we do not expect liquidity will likely deteriorate from its very strong position during the next few fiscal years. Weak debt and contingent liability profile In our view, Denton's debt and contingent liability profile is weak. Total governmental fund debt service is 12.1%of total governmental fund expenditures, and net direct debt is 108.4%of total governmental fund revenue. Following these issuances, overall net debt was 9%of market value.We understand Denton expects to issue roughly $21 million of tax-supported debt in fiscal 2020 for various citywide improvements.While we do not currently view the amount as significant, due to the rapid pace the city is growing,we expect the city and school districts serving the city will have ongoing growth-related capital needs that could inflate overall net debt-to-market value ratios above 10%, which could weaken our assessment of the debt profile. Denton's combined required pension and actual other postemployment benefit(OPEB) contributions totaled 10.1%of total governmental fund expenditures in fiscal 2018.The city made its full annual required pension contribution in fiscal 2018. www.spgtobal.com/ratingsdirect 131 May 20,2019 5 Summary:Denton,Texas;General Obligation Denton participates in the state-administered Texas Municipal Retirement System(TMRS),which is the city's largest plan. Denton's required pension contribution is its actuarially determined contribution, calculated at the state level based on an actuary study. Using updated reporting standards in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 68,the city's net pension liability,measured at Dec. 31, 2017,was $61.6 million.TMRS maintained a funded level of 86.83%,using the plan's fiduciary net position as a percentage of total pension liability. Denton also participates in a single-employer, contributory, defined-benefit retirement plan:the Denton Firefighters' Relief&Retirement Fund. This fund, established to provide pension benefits to full-time firefighters,recorded a net pension liability of$17.4 million at Dec. 31, 2017,with a reported funded ratio of 83.03%. While we do not expect short-term fixed-cost pressure resulting from pension obligations, our amortization methodology contains potential for unexpected escalations. However,we expect any near-term increases should be manageable due to the city's strong finances and budgetary performance. As part of its OPEBs, Denton provides defined-benefit,group-term life insurance through the TMRS-administered supplemental death benefits fund. Denton funds this on a pay-as-you-go basis. It contributed$156,539 to the fund in fiscal 2018. Furthermore, Denton provides retiree health care,which it also funds on a pay-as-you-go basis;the city contributed$763,313 toward the plan in fiscal 2018. Strong institutional framework The institutional framework score for Texas municipalities is strong. Outlook The stable outlook reflects S&P Global Ratings'opinion of Denton's growing economy within the broad and diverse Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington MSA;very strong budgetary flexibility and liquidity; and strong budgetary performance, supported by very strong management. The outlook also reflects our opinion that Denton's debt profile will likely remain elevated, corresponding with expected growth and planned additional debt issuance. Consequently,we do not expect to change the rating within the two-year outlook period. Upside scenario We could raise the rating if continued economic expansion were to result in improved wealth and income we consider comparable with those of higher-rated peers, coupled with reduced debt,while management maintains strong finances. Downside scenario We could lower the rating in the unlikely event growth-related or fixed-cost pressure were to weaken budgetary performance,leading to sustained and significant reserve drawdowns.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City is required to collect 50 drinking water samples from inside homes once every three years, only during the June to September timeframe, and analyze these samples for lead and copper. The sampling collection is scheduled to occur June 3 through June 21. BACKGROUND: The samples for lead copper testing are collected from a list of participants that have been approved by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The analyses of the samples are not conducted by the City of Denton laboratory, but are required to be conducted by a certified third party laboratory. This laboratory sends the sample results to TCEQ at the same time they send the results to the City of Denton. The City provides copy of the results to the participants. If present,elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems,especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with homes,plumbing pipes, and fixtures. The City of Denton has been collecting water samples for routine lead and copper monitoring since 1993. It is important to realize that water in the City of Denton is treated to reduce pipe corrosion and prevent lead and copper from leaving the pipes and getting into drinking water.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Staff has incorporated changes related to temporary construction screening and vacant lots that were requested by City Council on March 26 into a revised Denton Square District Ordinance. This ordinance has been reviewed by the City Attorney's Office BACKGROUND: On March 25,2019,a public forum was held at the Development Services building.Approximately 30 individuals attended, including business and property owners, residents, and generally interested citizens from across the city.Overall,those in attendance were supportive of The Denton Square District and associated standards and guidelines, and provided feedback which particularly focused on murals,painting unpainted brick, historic preservation, and building heights. On March 26, 2019, City Council held a work session to discuss the results of the public forum and staff s proposed changes to the standards and procedures. Staff proposed that projects be reviewed by City Council rather than a board, proposed that murals on facades facing the Square proper be limited to 25%of the area of the facade,provided clearer standards for window glass on the first and second stories,and provided strengthened language on historic preservation. Staff also responded to public forum concerns by proposing that new building heights be limited to two stories on the Square. City Council gave consensus support for staff s proposed changes,requested more detailed standards related to temporary construction barriers and vacant lots, and directed staff to prepare an ordinance incorporating those changes and to bring it to Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council for consideration for approval. Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the revised ordinance 6-0 on May 29, 2019. The ordinance will be presented to City Council on June 4, 2019 for consideration. DISCUSSION: In response to the request to provide more detailed standards for temporary and long-term screening of construction areas and vacant lots created by demolition within the Denton Square District, staff has incorporated the following changes into the Denton Square District draft ordinance: • Temporary Construction Barriers: o Requirement and design standards for Temporary Construction fencing to be installed following any demolition or catastrophic loss of a building. o City Council approval required for any graphics on the screening. • Vacant Lots: o Requirement for Post-Demolition Redevelopment Plan, subject to City Council approval, for all proposed non-emergency demolitions. 137 Date: May 31,2019 Report No. 2019-117 o Requirement that the temporary screening of a vacant lot, created by an emergency demolition or catastrophic loss, be replaced with either a masonry wall, a landscaped area, or another City Council-approved plan, if building construction activity on the lot has not begun within one year. CONCLUSION: Staff has made revisions to the Denton Square District and Design Standards as requested by Council and is presenting the revised Denton Square District Ordinance to Council for consideration for adoption. STAFF CONTACT: Scott McDonald Director of Development Services (940) 349-8539 scott.mcdonald@cityofdenton.com 138 Date: May 31,2019 Report No. 2019-118 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Provide an update on the 86th Texas Legislative Session. DISCUSSION: The 861h Texas Legislative Session concluded on May 27, 2019. The following are updates for some key bills of interest. Staff will continue to provide updates on legislation that impacts the City and monitor analysis from professional associations such as the Texas Municipal League (TML). • Senate Bill 386 (Tourism Public Improvement District) —This bill authorizes the creation of a tourism public improvement district under certain parameters. The changes would enable the possible creation of a TPID in the City of Denton. This legislation was led by the Denton Convention&Visitors Bureau and City Council agreed to support. It was sent to the Governor on May 21, 2019. • Senate Bill 1066 (Denton County Transportation Authority)—This bill defines the DCTA Board composition as including one appointment from each founding municipality, two appointments from the Denton County Commissioners Court, and one member for each additional municipality that contributes certain public dollars toward DCTA. The bill became effective on May 20, 2019 when the Governor signed it. • House Bill 4683 (Hunter Ranch) — This bill authorizes the creation of the Hunter Ranch Improvement District No. 1 of Denton County under certain parameters,including city consent and execution of an operating agreement and project agreement with the city. The bill was sent to the Governor on May 26, 2019 for his signature. • House Bill 4693 (Cole Ranch) — This bill authorizes the creation of the Cole Ranch Improvement District No. 1 of Denton County under certain parameters,including city consent and execution of an operating agreement and project agreement with the city. The bill was sent to the Governor on May 29, 2019 for his signature. • Senate Bill 2 (Property Tax Bill) — This bill makes numerous changes to the process for adopting property tax rates, including, but not limited to, setting a"rollback"rate (now called "voter-approval" tax rate) at 3.5 percent and requiring a mandatory election on the November uniform election date for a tax rate that exceeds the voter-approval tax rate.There are numerous other changes and procedural items related to if a mandatory election is held to seek approval of a tax rate that exceeds the voter-approval tax rate. This bill was sent to the Governor on May 28. • Senate Bill 1152(Right-of-Way Rental Fees)—This bill amends the Local Government Code to eliminate certain right-of-way rental fees for telecommunications companies by allowing a 139 Date: May 31, 2019 Report No. 2019-118 company to elect to pay either telephone franchise fees under the access line compensation system or cable franchise fees under the state-issued cable franchise system, but not both as they currently must. The bill allows the companies to choose to no longer pay the lesser of the two fees,although they benefit financially from both by using public land for a private purpose. On April 16, 2019, the City Council passed a resolution in opposition of this bill as it would force City of Denton taxpayers to subsidize the operational costs of private businesses and allow the use of publicly-owned property for less than fair market value. This bill was sent to the Governor for signature on May 25. The bill will take effect on September 30, 2019 and will apply only to franchise fee payments made after January 1, 2020. City Staff expects the resulting estimated revenue loss to be over $670,000 per year. • House Bill 852(Building Permit Fee Calculation)—This bill prohibits cities from calculating their residential building permit fees on the cost of a proposed residential structure or improvement. The bill was signed by the Governor on May 21, and it is effective immediately. City staff and Legal are working to understand the implications of the bill to the City and develop options for a revised fee schedule. • House Bill 1631 (Red Light Camera)—This bill amends the Transportation Code to prohibit local authorities, including municipalities, from operating a photographic traffic signal enforcement system, or red-light cameras. This bill gained final passage from the Legislature on May 17, was enrolled, and sent the Office of the Governor for signature. There will be a City Council work session on June 3 regarding red light camera legislation and the City's contract. • Senate Bill 621 (Plumbers Licensing) — The state agency of the Texas Board of Plumbing Examiners (TBPE)was set to "sunset"and expire on September 1, 2019. This bill would have abolished the TBPE and transferred its functions to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation(TDLR), including state licensing and regulation of plumbers and plumbing work, however, the final version of the bill failed to pass. Staff will monitor if the State plans to address the issue in any way or alternative options that could be considered. It is also our understanding that the Texas Municipal League is looking at the impact on cities if the Texas Board of Plumbing Examiners is no longer in existence on September 1, 2019. • House Bill 2439 (Building Materials) — This bill would will pre-empt cities from enforcing any kind of building materials requirements and processes more restrictive than what the building codes require. In short, cities would no longer have the ability to regulate aesthetics and quality development, especially in commercial or mixed-use areas. The bill has been sent to the Governor for signature on May 29; however, there is still considerable opposition and a push for the Governor to veto the bill. • Senate Bill 21 (Tobacco 21)—This bill amends the Health and Safety Code to prohibit sales to or the possession,purchase,consumption,and receipt of cigarettes,e-cigarettes,and tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21 years. A notable exception is that military personnel presenting valid military identification may legally purchase and consume cigarettes, e- cigarettes, and tobacco products. Additionally, persons between the ages of 18 and 21 at the 140 Date: May 31, 2019 Report No. 2019-118 time that the bill takes effect are also exempt. On February 26, 2019, the City Council passed a resolution in support of similar legislation as there is evidence that reducing the availability of tobacco and e-cigarette products for persons between 18 and 21 years of age results in a reduction of smoking and smoking-related public health impacts. This bill was sent to the Governor for signature on May 25. The bill will take effect on September 1, 2019. • House Bill 1545 (Craft Brewery To-Go Sales) — This bill will provide for the continuation and functions of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) until its next scheduled review by the Sunset Advisory Commission. Included in the expansive legislation is a provision that allows for the sale of 288 ounces of ale or beer for off-premises consumption by breweries with a brewers permit or manufacturing license. On April 9, 2019, the City Council passed a resolution in support of"to-go" ale and beer sales by breweries as such a change would increase the economic impact of breweries,particularly in Denton, and promote greater fairness under the law by eliminating legal differences relating to "to-go" sales for breweries, distilleries, and wineries. The bill was sent to the Governor for signature on May 29. • Senate Bill 1156 (RRC Public Hearings for Gas Wells) — City Council expressed interest and support for this bill which would have required the Texas Railroad Commission to hold public hearings on certain gas well permit applications where a proposed well site is located within 1,500 feet of the property line of a child-care facility, private school, or primary or secondary public school. This bill and its companion, HB 2920, did not pass out of committee during the session. • House Bill 3143 (Ch. 312 Extension) — This bill extends the sunset date for Chapter 312 of the Texas Tax Code to allow for the continued use of property tax abatements. Denton utilizes Chapter 312 tax abatements as an economic development tool and, as a result, City Council included the extension of the provisions of Chapter 312 as a priority in their 2019 Legislative Agenda. The bill was sent to the Governor for signature on May 29. Bills that are sent to the Governor for signature will,unless specified otherwise in the bill,become effective when signed by the Governor or 20 days after the conclusion of the legislative session if not signed by the Governor.
