T July 20, 1995 Mayor Bob Castleberry and City Council Members Denton City Council 215 East McKinney Denton, Texas 76205 Dear Mr. Mayor and City Council members: This letter is to request that the City Council grant our prcposal for taxi rate adjustments as shown Exhibit A. Since the last general rate adjustment in 1990, we have seen a significant increase in the cost of operating cabs and insuring cabs in the City, As Exhibit B shows, except for "Rent" and "Office Supplies" our cost of operating went up the two years (1992 and 1994) that we were able to track. The proposed rate adjustment would allow us to continue to provide quality cab service to the Denton community and will :finable us to maintain a reasonable profit margin. The increase in the waiting time fee will also discourage passengers from keeping cabs held in parking for thirty (30) minutes to one (1) hour. As a result, cabs can be free to meet public needs. It will also make it a little more fair for drivers who are often made to wait Indefinitely under the current rate structure, we are also proposing that the City eliminate the current surcharge of :,50 per passenger from 8:00 p.m to 6:00 a.m. Based on our experience, we think that the life of our drivers are not endangered by our passengers. Thus, the risk that the surcharge compensates for does not exist in Denton. In fact, this reduction, would mean a reduction in an average fare for our night and early morning passengers, Sincerely, Bob Stermer Denton Taxi Service . tw195 i p ~ .q.~..~... - :.t.rt a c'Yt 2r1w T1 Y'fNiQiX S,Ti=1LLlM.Y~,, r_Q} S P$VICES NOW NEW INCREASE 1NNIALM"UP 1.301u 1210 Mile 1.50 ILI I/10Mile 8.60% HA.AHD.1110DIM11.E S.13 5113 0.007E WAIT'im. 5.25 Per 90 Sec. 5.30 Per 90 Sec. 20.00% IM'RA PASS. 3.30 $1.00 100.00% i SURCHARGE 5.50 50.00 (100.0051) 8:00 p.m-6:00 a m. 1 a t _ O • 14WOND - _ Apendaltem,, _ C.1123R241TAX19S.WK1 f0(HD;fi'y (~~8-_-~-_- DENTON TAXI SERVICE FARE ANALYSIS t992 1994 DIFFIAIINCE % Will.

Harrell, City Manager DATE: July 18, 1995 SUBJECT? VOICE MAIL SYSTEM FOR CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS RECOMMENDATION None. SUMMARY: Two options are available regarding a voice mail system for City Council members. Option As A voice mail box could be created for citizens to call with messages or comments for the City Council. The phone number to call could be displayed on the TV screen periodically during Council meetings broadcasts as well as added to the list of phone numbers displayed on the City's cable channel bulletin b^ard. A city staff member could periodically retrieve and transcribe the messages and produce a weekly report to be distributed to Council members. The up-front cost to set up such a voice mail box would be approximately $100. on- going costs would be for Staff time to retrieve the messages and create the report. Option B; A menu-driven automated attendant system could be created. When someone calls the number they would hear a series of menu options ouch ass "to leave a message for the entire City Council push one and leave your message after the tone; to leave a message for Mayor Castleberry, push 2; to leave a message for Council member Biles, push 3;" etc. Council members would have access numbers which would allow them to retrieve their own messages. Again, this phone number could be displayed on the TV screen intermittently during Council meeting broadcasts and could also be displayed on the City's cable channel bulletin board. Up-front costs for such a system would be approximately $400 to $500. On-going coats would ')e reduced since no Staff time would be necessary to • retrieve and transcribe messages. Finally, I would add that telephone numbers for information and assistance are already posted on the Channel 26 bulletin board and that the City Manager's office already has an efficient system of handling citizen request for action (RFAs).

Harrell, City Manager DATE: July 19, 1995 SUBJECT: Extension of Recreation Center Hours RECOMMENDA'T'ION: Staff reeommendaIion is to further survey and research this subject based on City Council direction. SUMMARY: At the request of Councilmember Jack Miller staff has completed preliminary research related to the extension of recreation center hours (including late night hours) to provide alternative activities for teenagers and young adults. This issue has been addressed in three areas: perceived need, current programs, ailernatives for additional services, and resources to provide additional services. Perceived Need: Staff contacted various agencies in Denton to discuss the need for additional programming for teenagers (D4 - 17) and young adults (18 - 25). 'These agencies included PAL. (Police Athletic League), Denton County Juvenile Justice, United Way, and the Denton Police Department. All agencies agreed that there is a need for more programs in addition to what is currently provided. Those conversations and this report deal pi4marily with the al-risk youth and adult population in Denton. 'The Police Athletic League or "PAL" corches, and provides scholarships for a baseball team (ages 13 - 14) that plays in the Denton Boys Baseball program. In addit~-)n, PAL offers Golden Gloves and Silver Gloves boxing for ages 8 - 22. A PAL reprczentative suggested alternative sites for programming, such as Civic Center Pool for late night swimming parties. y In the Denton County Juvenile Probation Division, Juvenile Justice supported late night programming 1 for adults only, since many oflhe youth who are on probatiun have a 7:00 p.m. curfew. This agency said there was a need for programs specifically for delinquents or adjudicated kids (age 12-14). • Specifically mentioned were after school programs and half day summer camps. A similar program was provided in 1991-92 by the 'T'herapeutic division of the Parks and Recreation Department at MLK Recreation Center. 'The program was funded by a state grant that has since ceased funding the program. 'The Denton Police Department also supported daytime programming for youth age 13-17. The need • grows in the summer when criminal mischief and daytime house burglaries show a perennial increase. • 0 The United Way also expressed the need for youth programs throughout the city for ages 14-19, and pointed to the successful programs in the Owsley neighborhood. • • AgendaNo Agondaltenl [)rate Page 2 Recreation Center flours The Denton Independent School District proposed a now after school program for the Middle Schools at the end of the 1995 school year. This program could be very effective since youth would not have to leave the school site to participate. Current City Programs: The Parks and Recreation Department has several daytime programs targeting youth at-risk, including the Owsley summer playground program for youth 7.12 (CDRG funded). This free drop-in program runs for ten weeks in the summer from 9:00 a.ni, - 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. It is located at Owsley Park in near west Denton and provides structured, recreational and educational activities, including weekly field trips. Approximately 30 children per day participate in this program. King Kids Day Camp for youth 6-11 (CDRG funded) has three sessions through the summer. It is held at the MIX Recreation Center from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, Children who register for this program participate in structured activities including arts and crafts, games, nature and science activities, tennis, swimming and cultural studies. Weekly field trips are optional for a nominal fee and lunch is provided through the federally funded Summer Food Service Program. This summer, SO children are enrolled in the Camp. IMAGINE (funded through private donations) for ages 14-17 is a nine month program for at-risk youth. Teens are recruited from various agencies and organizations, and must submit an application to be considered for the program. The program includes community involvement, education and self- esteem development. At the end of the session, teens who have demonstrated academic improvement, participated in community service projects and have attended meetings and activities throughout the year earn a trip to Washington, D.C., This program is limited to 12 teens, Alternative Avenues (CDRG funded beginning in 1996) for ages 14 - 17 will provide weekly meetings and field trips during the school year for a limited number of youth in the Owsley & Phoenix Apartment neighborhoods of the city. Alternatives for Additional Services: At this time, staff has discussed the following types of programs for possible implementation. • For the 12 - 17 age group, daytime and early evening programming is recommended. This could include after school programs in the schools and at recreation centers. Half-day summer programs ~ should also be considered al recreation centers specifically for this age group. These could be conducted within current recreation center hours. • Additional staff hours will be required in order to provide the focused attention needed to accomplish • • desired goals. This type of progi amming could focus not only on recreation, but provide tutoring, coaching on life skills and job skills, conflict resolution and cultural enrichment, In addition to reducing crime, especially in the summer, this program would work to improve attendance and • w e ~+ganUatu~ . _ _ Page 3 AgoRdaIJon,_ Recreation Center Hours LAIC grades at school and developing important lifelsocial skills. For young adults age 19-25, some form of late night programming can be considered. Examples of programs implemented by other cities nationwide include late night basketball (Midnight Basketball), late night volleyball for women and free play basketball. Asa component of these programs, most cities also expose participants to other recreational and public services available within the city and from other agencies. If this type of late night programming is recommended, additional staffing and police security will be required to insure its success. Collaboration with the agencies listed earlier will also be essential with this type of program. The primary goal of these programs could be to provide positive alternative activities that would reduce negative behaviors. Parks and Recreation Department staff also believe that there is a need for additional programs which are targeted to at-risk youth and young adults. However, further research is required before staff would be prepared to recommend specific programs and services to the City Council. Should the Council desire, !taff is prepared to work collaboratively with other local agencies to develop recommendations for Council consideration. BACKGROUND: On April 1, 1995, the hours of operation at Denia, MLK and North Lakes Recreation Centers were extended by three hours per week. The hours occur on Saturdays from 3:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m.. The purpose of the extension was to provide greater flexibility to participants, particularly families and individuals that work during the week and find their only leisure time is on weekends. In addition, it was intended to provide an extended leisure resource for children and tmnv gers whose parents work on weekends. On Saturdays, gym free-play and instructor led classes are provided in the morning and gym free-play exclusively in the afiernoon. A 24% increase in combined attendance has resulted (See Attachment 1) on Saturdays from April 1, 1995 through June 30, 1995. Over the first three months of implementation, the extension of hours has been moderately successful. It is anticipated that the 24% increase will extend through the remainder of the year. Staff will continue to evaluate the success of the extended hours throughout e the first year of operation. PROGRAMS, DEPARTMENTS OR GROUPS AFFECTED: Parks and Recreation Department, Leisure Services Division, Denton Police Department and other service agencies throughout the city FISCAL IMPACT: Additional General Fund dollars may be required depending on the final direction • from City Council for additional programming. • • i • • Igendaho Page 4 Recreation Center Hours [tale RESPEC LILLY SUBMITTED: C H o d V.
