A. Green Tree Estates Update — On Monday, February 24, a meeting was held with Pat
Smith of Serve Denton, Denton Council Member Paul Meltzer, and staff from the City
Manager's Office staff to discuss the actions needed to bring water services to the
residents of Green Tree Estates. The following day, February 25, John Hoose, of

OUR CORE VALUES
Integrity • Fiscal Responsibility • Transparency • Outstanding Customer Service
Task (S.W.E.A.T Team) met to discuss upcoming activities that will assist the owner
occupied residents at Green Tree Estates. The following is a brief summary of
upcoming activities from both entities including the City of Denton.
Habitat for Humanity:
• Has reached out to LULAC for coordination of activities.
• Has recruited the services of Stewart Title and they have determined that the
ownership of the roads within the subdivision are still privately held.
• On Saturday March 7, Habitat will conduct Courtesy Inspections of those
owner-occupied residences. This will provide residents with an understanding
of outstanding health, life, safety code matters and potential cost estimates to
have these matters resolved.
Serve Denton:
• Serve Denton is working on coordinating potential funding sources to assist
with low interest to no-interest loans for residents of GTE.
• Serve Denton is coordinating with community groups like the S.W.E.A.T Team
to assist in making repairs to bring the owner-occupied homes into compliance.
Serve Denton indicated that there may be other groups that can assist in
conducting some of the construction work in the roads for the pipe installation.
City of Denton:
• Will continue to deliver non-potable water to residents through May 22, 2020
• Has offered to conduct Courtesy Inspections to all owner and renter occupied
residents. A resident will need to schedule the inspections with Building
Inspections.
• The tap, meter, and impact fee for water is $6938. This information has been
provided to residents on several occasions.
• On week of March 9, Public Affairs will be sending out a comprehensive
correspondence (in English and Spanish) to all GTE residents that contains
FAQs, fee information, inspection requirements, and the schedule for upcoming
community meetings.
Staff contact: Mario Canizares, City Manager's Office
B. COVID-19 Coronavirus Response Planning — As discussed in last week's Friday
report, the City is preparing and coordinating with our partners at the Denton County
Public Health Department (DCPH), who is the lead authority in the county on public
health matters. Additionally, City staff are receiving timely information through daily
briefings with the Texas Department of State Health Services. A multi-departmental
team has also been formed to communicate and plan and we have invited our external
partners of the DCPH, DISD, UNT, and TWU to join in this team's efforts.
To communicate with the public, the City of Denton has created a webpage, shared
information on social media, and has ordered educational posters to be placed
throughout all City facilities. Staff has also ordered more sanitation supplies for all City
facilities.
2
To share more information with the community and City Council, staff has coordinated
for the Denton County Public Health Department to present at the March 17 work
session.
Should the situation change locally, Denton County Public Health will work with our
community and media partners to provide updated recommendations and information
as it becomes available. Any confirmed cases will be reported publicly through all
Denton County Public Health media channels. In such cases, the City will work to
amplify County messaging through our communication channels. Staff contact: Sarah
Kuechler, Public Affairs/Kenneth Hedges, Fire
C. Cupboard Recycling Center— Several Council members reached out to staff regarding
the displacement of the recycling drop-off center located at the DISD property that is
formerly the Cupboard. Staff is working on a presentation for a future work session for
early April to discuss this location and other options available. Staff contact: Brian
Boerner, Solid Waste and Recycling
D. Economic Development Strategic Plan Community Workshop— Over the last three
months, Economic Development department staff have been working with TIP
Strategies, an economic development consulting firm, to gather data and stakeholder
input as part of the strategic planning process. The consultants have made two site visits
to Denton and have met with numerous stakeholders, toured Denton and relevant
facilities, and reviewed data, policies, plans, and more. During their March visit, TIP
and department staff will hold the first community workshop to get feedback on ideas
and strategies for the strategic plan. The workshop will be held at 6 p.m., Wednesday,
March 18, at the Denton Civic Center(321 E. McKinney). The event is open to anyone,
and staff encourage businesses and residents to attend and provide valuable input and
feedback. Additional workshops will be held once a draft plan is developed in April or
May. The attached flyer is being distributed to community leaders and organizations,
and other posts have been made on relevant social media channels. Staff contact:
Jessica Rogers, Economic Development
E. UNT Mock Press Exercise — On February 29, Public Affairs and Sustainability staff
participated in a media training session with University of North Texas students in the
Master of Public Administration program. During a mock press conference, students
served as municipal public information officers faced with real-life scenarios while
staff acted as reporters asking questions. The objective of the training is to provide
hands-on experience in effective communication and understanding the unique
information needs of the public for a number of different events. Training sessions have
been hosted for several years with positive feedback from professors and students, and
they are a wonderful example of the partnership between the City and our universities.
Staff looks forward to working with the UNT MPA program again next semester. Staff

F. Denton Enterprise Airport Training Award — Denton Enterprise Airport is one of 129
airports nationwide that have been recognized by the American Association of Airport
Executives (AAAE) for Training Excellence in 2019. In 2018, the Denton Enterprise
airport instituted the ANTN Digicast web-based aviation training system with the goal
of enhancing employees knowledge and understanding of airport related procedures
and standard practices. The ANTN Digicast Excellence in Airport Training award
3
signifies that airport employees have completed a specified amount of federally
mandated airport-specific and continuing education training.Denton Enterprise Airport
has received this award two years in row. Please see the attached press release for
additional information. Staff Contact: Scott Gray, Airport Manager
G. Abandoned Houses — On March 1, Council Member Armintor forwarded a resident
request to staff with concerns about two potentially abandoned homes on Mockingbird
Lane. Community Services staff visited and inspected the two structures, and
found both to be vacant and unsecure. As such, the properties were noticed and posted
on March 3. Per State and City law, vacant and unsecure buildings must be secured
within 72 hours by the owner. As of Thursday, March 5, the owner was actively
working on boarding both properties. Staff will reinspect to ensure the buildings are
properly secured. Staff contact: Dani Shaw, Community Services Staff contact: Dani
Shaw, Community Services
H. Fiber Lines Cut During Sidewalk Construction—On March 2, Council Member Briggs
forwarded a resident request that their fiber line was cut by crews repairing a sidewalk
in front of their home. The fiber line was cut while crews were preparing the sidewalk
for repair. These lines are required to be buried 36 inches below the curb height in the
Right of Way, however crews were cutting 5 to 6 inches below the surface when the
line was cut. Staff reached out to the resident who was affected by this, and the line
was repaired by the next day. Staff contact: Daniel Kremer, Public Works
L Connectivity Around the New Denton High School—On December 6, Council Member
Davis requested a summary of the mobility improvements (streets and sidewalks) that
are going to be made in connection with construction of the new Denton High School.
The primary entrance for the school will be from a new east-west roadway (Bronco
Way)which will be an extension of the existing Riney Road west of Bonnie Brae Street
(see graphic below). The High School will have additional entrances along Bonnie Brae
Street as well. Currently, the segment of Bonnie Brae Street between Windsor Drive
and US 77 is under design and includes a 5-foot sidewalk on the west side and a 10-
foot wide multi-use path(bike, pedestrian, etc.) on the east side. Additionally, the new
roadway (Bronco Way) on the north side of the High School will also have 5-foot
sidewalks on both sides. The High School does not have an access/entrances along
Westgate Drive (western boundary of the school site). Staff received feedback from
residents in the neighborhood, and given the proposed layout of the High School and
the likelihood of Westgate Drive (behind the School) being used as a future cut-
through, extending Westgate Drive north to connect to Bronco Way was not
recommended. Therefore, Westgate Drive is not planned to be extended north to
provide a vehicular connection to Bronco Way. As for the pedestrian connection
(sidewalk), staff is currently reviewing the following options which will be presented
to City Council for consideration in the near future. It should be noted that providing a
pedestrian connection from Westgate Drive to Bronco Way or the back side of the High
School may encourage parents to use Westgate Drive as a drop-off/pick-up area.
• No sidewalks (As is condition) (see graphic below).
• Install an 8-foot sidewalk behind the drainage ditch on the east side of the road
from Westglen Drive to Bronco Way.
4
• Similar to previous option, but the majority of the sidewalk will be constructed
within the High School campus. This will require coordination and approval by
Denton Independent School District.
• Completely redesigning and reconstructing Westgate Drive to a collector street
per City standards. This means installation of curb&gutter, drainage inlets and
storm drain pipe, and 8 feet sidewalks on both sides of the street.

J. Changing Stations at South Lakes Park — On February 29, Council Member Briggs
forwarded a resident request to staff requesting baby changing stations be installed in
the restrooms at South Lakes Park. Staff was able to install the changing stations on
Wednesday, March 4 and will monitor these stations for vandalism, which is common
for the stations. Staff contact: Drew Huffinan, Parks and Recreation

K. No Parking Signage on Windsor — On March 2, Council Member Briggs forwarded a
resident request to staff requesting the City review the no-parking signage in front of
Strickland Middle School. Staff from the Traffic Engineering department visited the
school that day to assess the signage and will work with the school to make the
necessary changes, which includes City and non-City placed signage. Staff contact:
Brian Jahn, Capital Projects
L. NLC-TIP Economic Development Program — On March 3, Council Member Briggs
forwarded information to staff regarding the National League of Cities (NLC)
partnership with TIP Strategies to offer the 2020 Economic Development Program.
Staff reviewed the information that was provided, and agrees that it is a great program.
However, since the City is already working with TIP Strategies on the Economic
Development Strategic Plan, staff feels that this program would be duplicative of those
efforts but will save this information to be considered in the future. Staff contact:
Jessica Rogers, Economic Development
M. Denton Municipal Electric Energy Efficiency Workshop—On March 5, staff from the
Energy Services Division hosted this year's first Energy Efficiency Workshop at the
Denton Civic Center. The purpose of the workshop was to educate DME customers on
energy efficiency. At the workshop, staff also answered questions and provided useful
resources.
The energy efficiency workshop was advertised on several social media platforms, and
covered the following topics:
• Efficiency vs Conservation
• Residential Electricity Consumption
• Whole-House Assessment Approach
• Heat Gain and Loss
• Cooling and Heating
• Energy and Money Saving Tips
• Rebates and Helpful Resources
Next month,DME will host an Electric Safety Workshop with an Arcing Demo display
at the Civic Center. Staff Contact: Chris Lutrick, DME
N. Mills Road Site Litter Cleanup — Later this March, during KDB's 32nd Annual Great
American Cleanup (GAC), the litter will be cleaned up at the site of the City's future
East Lakes Park. The 71.34-acre property was recently purchased using tree mitigation
funds. Staff contact: Autumn Natalie, Parks and Recreation/Keep Denton Beautiful
O. Intersection Safety Data — On March 3, Council Member Briggs requested accident
data at the intersection on I-35E and Dallas Drive since the I-35E onramp reopened. A
search of reported crashes from December 1, 2019 through February 29, 2020 shows
that there have been four accidents, three of which have occurred since the beginning
of this year. This intersection has the same configuration as before the I-35E expansion
project, and saw the highest amount of accidents in 2017 during a time period when the
on-ramp to southbound I-35E was closed. The Police department is working with
Capital Projects and TxDOT to address the design of the roadway and explore whether
6
any changes could reduce issues in this area. Staff will provide updates as the
coordination continues. Staff contact: Frank Dixon, Police

P. Temporary Pedestrian Path to McNair Elementary—On Tuesday, March 3, 2020, City
staff received an email from a resident who expressed concerns regarding pedestrian
pathways being impacted by a utility relocation project near McNair Elementary,
specifically on the north side of Hickory Creek across from the school. Staff and DISD
staff met on site to discuss options. On the same day the concern was received, City
staff have worked with the contractor to place gravel on the existing footpath for
pedestrians to use. The gravel will produce a more weather resistant walking surface
for the pedestrians,particularly the students at McNair Elementary,to use as they walk
between Montecito Drive and the existing concrete sidewalk west of Waterside Place
(see ). Residents in the vicinity were notified via targeted outreach through Nextdoor
and DISD will also communicate this information to parents through their
channels. City staff will continue to work with DISD to explore additional safety
enhancing options. The construction at that location is expected to continue for another
2 to 3 months, weather permitting. Staff contact: Ryan Adams, Public Affairs

S. Farm to Table Camp—On Thursday, February 27, Denton Parks and Rec was awarded
the Texas Recreation and Parks Society Lone Star Program Award for the Farm to
Table Camp held at Denia Recreation Center last summer. Rec Center staff partnered
with Denton County Texas A&M AgriLife Family and Community Health Extension
Service to offer the Farm to Table half-day camp for 20 youth, ages 6 to 12.
This camp visually shared with campers the reality of where their food comes from and
how to prepare it for optimal nutrition. Each day of camp focused on a different food
group; grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy, and protein. Participants harvested from a
school garden, experienced a mobile dairy, and interacted with poultry and livestock.
Campers prepared food daily by using practical cooking skills that they can carry with
them throughout their lives. In addition to enriching twenty campers' knowledge of
agriculture, health and wellness, eight preschoolers and seventy-two City of Denton
summer campers were invited to share in parts of the Farm to Table Camp.
Students at Denton Independent School District (DISD) Newton Rayzor Elementary
continue to expand their science knowledge by caring for the chickens that hatched
during camp. Our Daily Bread clients receive fresh eggs weekly from the Newton
Rayzor chickens. Denton County Master Wellness volunteers, Denton County Master
Gardener and Elm Fork Master Naturalist volunteers dedicated two hundred and
eighty-four recorded volunteer hours to help achieve a successful camp experience for
all. The City of Denton Farm to Table Camp was a true community program that
8
enhanced many lives. Registration is now open at dentonparks.com for Summer 2020.

T. Eureka 2 Donations — The Denton Parks Foundation (DPF) has line-item funding to
support maintenance and updates needed at Eureka 2 to keep the community
playground safe. In October 2019, the spiral tube slide at Eureka 2 broke and became
unsafe for kids to play on. The replacement cost is $6,278, which DPF will fund. DPF
will also pay for a spinner replacement in March, which will cost $1,659.
Additionally, on the morning of January 4, Eureka 2 was vandalized. Park Maintenance
crews worked 35 hours to clean the playground and remove all of the graffiti. The cost
of damages was $2,000 including staff time, equipment, materials, and paint. DPF will
fund this cleanup. Furthermore, DPF will pay for the wood fiber surfacing that is
required this summer, which will cost $1,400.
In total, DPF will donate $11,337 towards the Eureka 2 playground for maintenance
and updates that are required to ensure all residents, young and old, are safe while they
play. Staff contact: Brooke Moore, Denton Parks Foundation via Gary Packan, Parks

AAAE Recognizes 129 Airports for Training Excellence
AAAE has recognized 129 airports with an ANTN Digicast
Excellence in Airport Training award for training completed in
.!� a 2019.
An ANTN Digicast Excellence in Airport Training award
signifies that airport employees and others working at each facility have completed a specified
amount of federally mandated airport-specific and continuing education training using ANTN
Digicast's web-based training system. The award levels are based on total training programs
watched and total number of employees trained at each airport. Levels vary based on the
airport's hub size. Each winning airport is presented with a plaque marking the achievement.
"Digicast was created for airports as a cost-effective, efficient way to help them comply with
training requirements, and we're encouraged that so many airports have made it an integral part
of their training programs," said Patrick Raker, senior vice president of AAAE's training and
technology services department. "The system is used by airports to train hundreds of thousands
of industry workers, and I'm eager to see that trend continue as planned enhancements in
training content and reporting are developed and released."
Airports that subscribe to ANTN Digicast have unlimited access to the service's 300-plus
training programs for all employees and tenants. Topics covered include operations, Aircraft
Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF), security, customer service, FAA-required recurrent training
and much more. ANTN Digicast training is designed for airport employees, as well as tenants,
such as airline workers and subcontractors who work at an airport.
Digicast programming is accessible online via any web-enabled device. Through the website,
airport administrators can assign training to their employees to ensure all training requirements
are completed by the due date. The system tracks training on a per-user basis, allowing airports
to demonstrate to regulators that their employees have completed required recurrent training.

INTRODUCTION
This report is divided into two sections. The first section(City Debt)presents the City's outstanding
debt by the manner in which the City intends to pay for such debt (tax-supported versus revenue-
supported). Additionally, this section provides a breakdown of the City's outstanding debt by
purpose (i.e., General Government, Electric, Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste and Airport). The
second section (House Bill 1378) is intended to comply with reporting requirements pursuant to
Texas Local Government Code 140.008.
The City of Denton utilizes long-term debt to finance non-operating expenses, which may include
equipment, facilities, and the acquisition of land. Unlike the Federal Government,the City generally
issues debt for the purchase or construction of capital assets and infrastructure improvements, and
cannot issue debt to fund operating expenses or deficit spending. All debt issued by the City must be
approved by the Texas Attorney General's Office prior to the final sale of the debt. Additional
information on the City's outstanding debt including statistical comparisons and ratios can be found
in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, which is located on the City's website under
the Finance Department. (www.cityofdenton.com)
The City issues two types of long-term debt: General Obligation Debt and Revenue Bond Debt. The
City also differentiates between tax-supported and revenue-supported debt to provide the public with
a clear understanding of which debt will be paid by property taxes versus rate revenues. The
following table shows the latest bond ratings for each type of debt for which ratings are given:
Mood 'st Standard&Poor's Fitch
General Obligation Debt Aal AA+ AA+
Revenue Bond Debt' Not Rated AA- A+
'Moody's upgraded General Obligation Debt in June 2019. Moody's has not rated a new a revenue bond debt issue since
2008, although surveillance ratings remain unchanged. All revenue bond debt previously rated by Moody's has been
refunded or paid off.
ZRatings for the Utility System Revenue Bonds, Series 2017 which were originally rated in December 2016. Fitch rating
was affirmed in December 2019.
GENERAL OBLIGATION DEBT.
The largest category of debt is General Obligation Debt. It consists of two categories of bonds:
General Obligation Bonds(GOs) and Certificates of Obligation(COs).
GOs are generally voter approved and backed by the full faith and credit of the City (property tax
pledge) and must be approved at an election. Voter approval may be granted during one of two
general election dates each year. GOs which are issued to refund outstanding debt do not require
voter approval. Under the City's debt policy, GOs strive to have a final maturity of twenty (20)
years or less.
COs do not require voter approval and generally have a dual pledge of a specific City revenue source
as well and the full faith and credit of the City. Some examples of pledged City revenues are
electric, water, wastewater, and drainage revenues. Under the City's debt policy, COs will strive to
have a final maturity of thirty (30) years or less. Historically, COs have mostly been issued with
twenty (20) year final maturities for general government purposes. In 2010, the City began issuing
COs not only for general government purposes which are repaid by property taxes,but also for utility
related projects of the City. The CO's issued for utility purposes are repaid from the specific utility
fund for which the debt was issued. CO's have a lower interest rate than revenue bonds, due to the
pledge of full faith and credit of the City. A portion of the interest savings to the City's utilities
19
through issuing CO's (instead of revenue bonds) is being paid to the general government and placed
in the Street Improvement Fund.
REVENUE BOND DEBT:
The second category of debt is Revenue Bond Debt. This debt is secured by only a pledge of the
operating revenues of the City's Electric, Water and Wastewater Funds (collectively known as the
"Utility System") and not the full faith and credit of the City. Under the City's debt policy, revenue
bonds will strive to have a final maturity of thirty (30) years or less. Historically, most revenue
bonds have been issued with a twenty (20) year final maturity. As of September 30, 2019, the City
only has the Utility System Revenue Bonds, Series 2017 outstanding.
OUTSTANDING DEBT:
The City's total outstanding principal and interest as of September 30, 2019 is shown in Table 1 on

Date: March 6, 2020 Report No. 2020-023
INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
Allegations of La'Shadion Shemwell regarding application of House Bill 2840/Texas Government
Code §551.007 to City of Denton Meetings.
BACKGROUND:
During the March 3 City Council Meeting, La'Shadion Shemwell, speaking off-topic during the
first Public Hearing items, alleged that limiting the number of speakers during Section 2
(Presentation from Members of the Public) of the agenda is contrary to state law. Mr. Shemwell
further stated that he would file complaints with the Texas Ethics Commission regarding the
alleged violation.
Mr. Shemwell's allegation has no basis in law or fact. While he did not specifically reference
which Texas law on which he relied during his recorded comments,he referenced House Bill 2840
in conversation with the City Attorney.
House Bill 2840 was codified as Section 551.007 of the Texas Government Code, effective
September 1, 2019. Council received an informal staff report on August 9, 2019, regarding the
effect of the bill. Some of that information is repeated below for convenience.
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Shemwell argued that the City cannot limit the number of speakers who have signed up to
speak before Council on any topic. There is no law supporting this argument. The closest law on
point is Texas Government Code §551.007; however, this law has specific requirements and
application.
Government Code §551.007 provides in pertinent part that:
1. a governmental body shall allow each member of the public who desires to address the
body regarding an item on an agenda for an open meeting of the body to address the body
regarding the item at the meeting before or during the body's consideration of the item;
2. a governmental body may adopt reasonable rules regarding the public's right to address the
body; and
3. a governmental body may not prohibit public criticism of the governmental body, including
criticism of any act, omission, policy, procedure, program, or service, unless the public
criticism is otherwise prohibited by law.
Addressing the Government Body
The newly adopted§551.007(b)provides that"[a] governmental body shall allow each member of
the public who desires to address the body regarding an item on an agenda for an open meeting
of the body to address the body regarding the item at the meeting before or during the bodLs
consideration of the item" (emphasis added).
1 Item Z19-0014c: Regarding a change in zoning for the property at 311 Jannie Street.
46
Date: March 6, 2020 Report No. 2020-023
First, the item must be on the agenda. By its definition, the public comment and "Open
Microphone" section of the agenda is for topics/items not already on the agenda.
Second, the provision applies to items that are before the governmental body's "consideration."
The Texas legislature specifically did not apply this to all items "deliberated" by the body.
Therefore,the provision applies only to items on which the City Council will take a formal action,
not Work Session items or "Open Mic" speakers. This is supported by the House Bill 2840 Bill
Analysis and intent of the Bill's author: the bill's purpose was to specifically increase "access to
the decision-making process by providing for public comment before and during the consideration
of each item on the meeting agenda" (emphasis added). Talking points on the House Floor before
adoption of the Bill indicate the intent was the address those cities that only allow public comment
at the end of the Council meeting. Further remarks also state that the intent was "to allow the
public to testify on every actionable item" (emphasis added). This interpretation aligns with that
of other cities, including Dallas and Fort Worth.
Reasonable Rules
While the City of Denton Code of Ordinances 2-29(f)(4) restricts the presentation from members
of the public to seven (7) speakers, however achieved between those speakers who previously
registered and the "Open Mic" section, this provision is also permissible under §551.007. As
stated above,because this section of the agenda is for the public to address Council related to items
not on the agenda and not setfor action at the meeting, a limitation as currently imposed is allowed.
Public Criticism
Current ordinances and practices do not prohibit the public criticism of the governmental body.
Citizens are certainly welcome to address Council regarding criticisms not related to agenda items
during the public comment section of the agenda discussed above.
CONCLUSION:
The City of Denton City Council Rules of Procedure(Code of Ordinances 2-29) are in compliance
with state law, including Government Code 551.007. Specifically, the City does not limit the
number of speakers on actionable items on the meeting agenda. Mr. Shemwell's allegation of a
violation of law is unfounded.
