Chris Hartung City Manager City of Denton { Municipal Building Denton, Texas 76201 Dear Hr., Hartung: We appreciate the opportunity we had to meet with: yaw and members of the City Council last Tuesday, July 3, 1979, to discuss the special engagement the City Council has asked Xt.axanfir i Grant Company to perform. { Questions raised by members of the City Council, as we understrnd them, include the following: How'much operating funds would the City lose if 'the discretionary transfer from the Utilities to the Ceneral Fund were discontinued? How much of this discretionary transfer is attributable to the universities and other tax exempt organizations operating within the City? On the basis of some common denominator such as kilowatt-hours, how much could utility gills 3 j be reduced if the discretionary transfer were l ! j discontinued? How much would the City tax,rate have to be ~J increased in order to offset the discretionary transfer of funds to the General Fund? I i ONE MAIN PLACE DALLAS, TX T 5450 (2141740-0100 City of i3nton _2- July lam, 1979 How does the City"3 utility rate comp4re to Cities of comparable size which are served by private utilities? How much would such comparable private utility pay to the City in taxes? It was recognized by all that some of th(,se questions, particularly the last two, might not be answerable because of lack o, comparable and reliable data. Further, it was understood that + the work we .°ould perform in attempting to answer these questions i would be based upon 1978 tax and utility rates and upon the City's financial statements for the year ended September 30, 1978, It is our understanding that our work in connection with this special engagement will be limited to the following procedures. (1) We will make inquiries of certain City personnel and review City utilities records in order to determine the recorded amount of utility usage both in total and for,the tax exempt entities, (2) By reference to the City's financial statements for the year ended September 30, 1:;78, we will determine the amount of discretionary transfers made by each ut•ility•to the General Fund. (3) By relating the amount of discretionary transfers to the units used we will determine the per unit amount of such discretionary transfers, (9) Using the units consumed by the various tax exempt entities and the per unit amount of the discretionary transfers, we will calculate tho amount of such transfers: attributable to the tax exempt entities, (b) We will also calculate the per unit amount by which the utility bills might have been reduced for the year ended September 30, 1978, if the discretionary transfers had been discontinued. (8) Review and inquiry will also be made of the over- all tax base in the City and we will calculate the amount per $100 valuation.by which the ! City tax rate) would need to be in creased in order to offset the discontinued transfer of funds from the utilities. i ' i .~rar. City of Denton -3- July 12, 1978 (7) We will make an inquiry of other offices of our firm, the Texas Public Utilities Commission and the Texas Municipal League in an attempt to determine if data are available relative to utility rates charged to a comparabld sized city by private utilities. I (8) In connection with (7) above, we will aloo attempt to learn the amount of taxes paid to, comparable sized cities by such private utilities. i Based upon the foregoing procedures, which do not 7 constitute an examination of the financial. statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we will, prepare a special 'report of our findings which will bps limited in distribution to the City Council and management of the City of Denton, • above Inasmuch as the stipulated procedures referred to a ~ will not constitute an audit examinationt they will not necessarily ti reveal all matters of significance relating to the data reviewrd. In addition, such procedures are not designed and cannot be relied upon to discover'defalcations ant similar irregularities. However, if such irregularities come to our %ttention, we will discuss them with you to determine what action should be taken. Oar fees for the services set forth in this letter will be at our regular rates and billings for such services will be rendered for payment on a monthly basis, so that you may readily relate our charges to the work performed. This engagement includes j only,those services specifically,desoribed in this letter. If you are in agreement with the terms of this letter, plea6e sign the copy and return it for our V les. We appreciate 1 the opportunity to work with you and continue our pleasant Associa- tion. Very truly yours, ALEXANDER GRANT & COMPANY i BY artner BJRhodes bk City of Denton -4- July 12, 1979 The foregoing lottcr fully describes the services required and is accepted by us, CITY OF DENTON , Date 1 a, Chris Hirtu city Manager 1 i i 11 k . l 1 1 6• 1 ~ I I • Council Agenda Item SUBJECTi Consider Amending Ordinance 45- 76678 Regarding Water and Sewer Line Pro-Rata Charges Along State and Federal Highway, SUMMARYi ;v„ 45-76d,d of the City's Code of Ordinances establishes that anyone desiring a tap to a water or sewer line that runs along their pro- perty ahd installed by someone else, such as a developer or the City must pay 60% of the current cost of such a line, This Pro Rate thereby repays the City or a previous developer for installing such line. This ordinance is satisfactory for City Streets or county roads since water and sewer taps can be cut across the street and the full 100% cost of. the line can be recovered. However, State and Federal regulations do not allow service taps to cross their highways. Therefore, our present ordinance allows only a 60% recovery of installation costs. The recommended amendment, Exhibit I* establishes that the Pro Pate charge along State and Federal highways be 100%. Because of"this State and Federal Regulation it is generally necessary to run water and sewer mains on both aides of a state or Federal Highway. 3 FISCAL SUMMARYs Difficult to determine since footage of Pro Rate charges vary annually-. ACTION RF.QUIREDS' 3 Approval of subject amendment. ALTERHATIYESi j Approve amendment - This will allow the City to legally collect 100% Pro Rate along State and Federal Highways. Leave ordinance as is - This could result in insufficient recovery of line installation for both City and Developer'installod lines. k . I i RECOlR4ENCATION~ .

SMMbVgt AC IN I Y ATTORNEY, CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS A°i9M1b.-xb CITY OF DENTON MEMORANDUM DATE OF MEETING: July 24, 1979 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITE14: Consider an ordinance continuing the taxation of automobiles SUMMARY: The "tax relief" legislation requires that a City must pass an ordinance to continue taxing automobiles each year. This action must be accomplished prior to the certification of the tnx roll by the Board of Equalization. The legislation provides that without action to continue taxation, taxes on automobiles will automatically be exempted. The ordinance will pertain to the 1979 tax roll only. FISCAL IMPACT: The automobile roll for 1979 has an tssessed'value of .$18,999,960 and will generate revenue of $235,600 with the current tax rate. To produce 1 an equivalent revenue from a reduced tax base if automobiles were exempted, f taxes would need t:) be increased 9a from $1.24 to $1.33. If the automobile rolls are eliminated, the total reduction, of the tax base including the increase of the Homestead Exemption from ;16,000 to $8,000 would amount to $21.8 Ml lion or about 7% of the 'total roll. t ACTION REQUIRED: The City Council may approve or deny the ordinance provided. 1 ALTERNATIrM. a a) approval of the ordinance will continue taxation of automobiles for fiscal year 1979-80. 1 • b) denial of the ordinance will eliminate automobiles from the 1979 tax roll, ' !'a s~ f No. AN ORDINE OF THE CTY OF DEN, TEXAS, IOZ FOR CONTINUANCECOF AD VALOREM (TAXATION ON TALL AUTOMOBILESOTHATNA FAMILY TOR INDIVIDUAL OWNS AND DOFS NOT HOLD OR USE FOR PRODUCTION CF INCOME; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
