Res Proposed Settlement of Case
The hearings in the General Telephone case, which began Monday,
April 18, 1983, have been recessed for consideration of a
proposed settlement. The proposed settlement, which is outlined
below, will be discussed at a meeting of all cities to be held in
Austin on Thursda A ril 28 1983 at 11 a.m. in the Maximillian
Room of the Drisk 11 H_ote Please have some represontat.~ve at
such meeting if you possibly can. If you can not have a
representative at the meeting please call the office of Don
Butler at 512/476-6604 and indicate if you are in favor of or
opposed to the amount of the settlement by 10 a.m. Thursday
morning, April 28, 1983.
The Company has requested an increase of approximately $84.5
million. The Company's request, by rate category and service, is
shown on the attachments along with the present rates and the
proposed increases. The cities have recommended an increase of
approximately $28.5 million, The recommendation of the PUC
staff is in the $34 million range.
The Company has indicated its willingness to accept an increase
of $32.5 million. This would result in increases of W to $1,00
per month for one party residential customers without EAS, rather
than the $3.75 to $4.00 requested.
The Company has proposed an optional measured service to be
implemented on January 1, 1984, Such proposal has produced mixed
reactions from different city officials. Yor this reason, and
because of the differences in exchanges due to size and time, the
consolidated group of cities has refrained from taking any
specific positions on rate design. As you can see the
implementation of optional local measured service will result in
a loss of revenues from those cus+omers who switch to such
service necessitating an increase to other customers effective
January 1, 1984.

The proposed settlement of the revenue requirement issue through
an increase of $32,5 million is recommended to you by the cities'
representatives, We need to know your position on the amount of
proposed Increase so that it can be handled accordingly.
Additionally, you will find attached hereto a copy of the
expenses from last year's General Telephone rate case. If you
have any questions, do not hesitate to call Don Butler at
512/476-6604.

l.conotn.,c development is not a new idea in Denton, Over the last two deeaaes
major efforts have been made try sevoral groups and individuals to promoto lxrsiness
and ecorloruic growth in our area,
During the late UU+s and early 7U+s, Denton was well known fo1 its innovation and
leadership in the field of economic development, The City of Denton and the
Chamber of Commerce joined together in a series of progressive efforts to achieve
nation-wide recognition, For example, ilia State of North Carolina sent its
Industrial Development Board to Denton to review what was considered to Le a
model Economic Development Program at ilia time. Promoters of ilia Program
included such people as Phyllis Ueorge, Htuts Conried, and Joe Camp (producer of
the'rl3onjl+r movies), Just one example of the creative thinking that evolved from
take o six a million people". 'Texas and Los
effort was a
could pass Ullboard givc rorCalifornia
Angeles
't'his program was successful due to the unique, cooperative effort which involved
leaders of the Lusiness/industry 001/111111 lily and the City of Denton. 'fhe proposed
program we will present to you In tite work session is intended to be the first step in
re-establishing the Rime spirit of creativity and involvement,
Our recommendations are bused on the tick nowledgemont that the private sector i-s
the most effective sales force for attracting new industry, lousiness and industry
representatives who have chosen Denton as their home are the first line team of an
economic campaign.
Since the Council directed the staff to proceed toward this goal we have been
working closely with ilia Uhartrlx;i' of Commerce. The programs that have been
proposed Eire just a first step in attempting to rejuvenate a major conimunity effort
toward economic development, These initial goals, however, are only short-range
and we creed to begin to examine long-range support to this activity.

SUBJLC'T: A RECOMMENDATION FOR TILE CITY'S 1983 LCONOmIC
DLVLLOP, lEN'T Pimiti5i
in our preliminary economic development program report we suggested the
inclusion of a quality of life brochure, After further research, we find that
our money would be better spent, and greater benefits received, through a
prograin already established by the Last Texas Chamber of Commmeo
There lure four regional chain hors of commerce which together comprise the
Texas State Chamber of Commerce, they are: Last, West, South and Lower
Rio Grande Valley, historically, we have been mein tors of both the Last and
the West Chambers liowever, we feel that our economic markets are more
closely aligned with those of east 'lexas. Furthermore, the Last Texas
Chain bnr of Commerce hus been extremely active in programs to promote
tourism, industrial development and legislation. They have been sponsors of
industrial tours for the past twenty years.
For the cost of $l,U5U.00, our participation in the li.usl 1'exns Chamber of
Commerce National Economic Development Program would provide the
following:
L INDUSTRIAL GUIDE: Denton would be represented with a one-half
page advertisement and a separate community profile description. Six
thousand copies of the seventh edition of the Industrial Guide will be
mailed to qualified inquirers who respond to the national ads placed by
the East Cham ter of Commerce.
1, POST CARD FOLL1lat The chamber will distribute 5,000
self-addressed post cards for direct reply advertising through a site
opportunities mailer. Half of our curds will Lr distributed within a
3UU mile radius of east Texas and the other halt' will be sent to
Canada and other foreign nations.

The Markoting Plan
1. The Situation
A. Geography the geographical market
As noted on attachment 01 Golden Triangle Malls market area is
' irregular and quite vast especially to the North.
1. Primary Trade Area - Denton, Sanger, Plower Mound, and
' Lewisville are the most densily populated cities in (sic]
proximity to the mall, These cities and their surrounding
areas contain approximately 42,500 households or 56% of our
' entire trade area, This is virtually all of Denton County,
2. Secondary Trade Area - Decatur, Gainesville, Celina, and
Pilot Point make up the majority of our secondary trade
area, which extends exclusively to the Northeast, Northwest,
and North. This area contains approximately 21,000 house-
holds or 28% of our total trade area.
3. Tertiary Trade Area - Muenster, Tx, and Ardmore, Ok, and a
sparsely populated ranch area in Southern Oklahoma make up
' our tertiary trade area. This is approximately 12,000
households or 16% of our entire trade area,
4. The driving time and distance for our primary trade area is
fairly uniform at 0 - 12 minutes and 0 - 10 miles, The
;living time and distance for our secondary trade area ranges
from 12 - 30 minutes or 10 - 25 miles and for our tertiary
' trade area, 30 - 65 minutes or 25 - 60 miles. The reason our
secondary and tertiary trade areas extend farther titan average
is a lack of major cities and regional shopping centers to the
' North of Denton,
5, Our entire trade area is divided by Interstate 35,
' Interstate 82, and State Highway 380. Golden Triangle mall
is easily accessible by all significantly sized cities via
the aforementioned major highways, The trade area is highly
dispersed with 60% of Golden Triangle Mall shoppers coming
' from Denton, Lewisville; 10%, Gainesville; 6%, Aubrevt 4%,
and another 18 smaller communities with 3% or less.

Menton is only 49 minutes away frcxn the primary distribution center
' of eleven mia-continental states with fifty million residents. The
Dallas-Fort Worth territory for dispersal of goods and services is
second in population in the United States only to Chicago's. 'Ihe
' Metroplex maintains an even higher distribution profile in texas,
' Uklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico, the "core" states of
our wholesaling/retailing infrastructure. 'Me Dallas Market Center,
' the world's largest single-site merchandise mart, hosts more than
thirty markets annually, Denton's proximity to this distribution
' center is definitely an asset to industries and businesses located
here.

Responses from local Flanks and Savings & Loans reaffirm their past
positions of cooperation in making funds available to new incoming
industries for real estate, in,~Pntury, equiLmient and WOOing capital. in
addition, some Landowners could probably be expected to carry some

Industrial Revenue bonds financing is available through the City of

DEW is already the fourth busiest airport in the world in terms of
U.s, carrier operations. Only four of the giant fac Aity's thirteen
projected terminal buildings exist today, and the greatest growth
may be in air cargo. Already DrW handles 60 percent of the air
cargo enplaned in Texas, last year a total of 430 million pounds.
Another great asset for DkW is its dependability. With our clear
skies, DkW is operational 99.5 percent of the time. Traffic
' stack-ups and delays are seldom encountered at DM due to its superb
runway, feeder, taxi lanes and apron design.

' can be imported duty-free. Already, expansion plans for
the one are under way, and a private Freeport warehousing
and otfice development next door offer a new dimension to
internationally minded manufacturers.
DRI's rapid expansion and strategically central location
' have prompted U.S. Customs officials to name the Metroplex
as only the second non-water, non-border customs district
in the history of the U.S. In addition, Dallas/fort Worth
has been designated a fish and Wildlife Port of Entry,
' Shipping service out of the airport is available from 45
major freight lines and 10 railroads connecting the
' Metroplex with 24 markets of 100,000 plus population
overnight or faster.
' At the latest count, more than 425 foreign-owned companies
have operations in this area, attracted in part by the
Metropiex's increasing role in world trade and travel.
' The DEW Airport is an employment generator, accounting for
some $4.1 billion annually.

' The average unemployment tax rate for all employers in Texas for the
fiscal year 1981 was only 6/10 of It, one of the lowest in the
nation.
' No other major manufacturing state offers so many economies in
unemployment compensation taxes as does Texas. Reasons which
' explain this advantages
(1) Diversified manufacturing and good laiY~r relations keep the
labor force relatively stable.
' (2) 7bxas experience rating system minimizes employer cost by
replenishing the trust fund from tax collections with
' approximately the same amount paid out in bene,tits on a
moving basis.
' (3) Program administrators are strict in denying benefits to
workers dischargea for acts of dishonesty and intentional
violations of company rules, or who quit jobs without good
cause connected with the work.

The state unemployment tax is paid by firms which employ one or more

received from a recently w 9leted lignite coal fired plant jointly
owned by the cities of Denton, Garlandr Bryan and Greenville,
r Texas, The remaining power is obtained from other coal fired or
large efficient gas fired plants ownea by these municipalities, the
Brazos Electric Power Cooperative and private utilities. Denton is
a member of a regional power pooh the Texas Municipal Power Pool,
and is connected to a member of the Electric Reliability Council of

' There have been no work stoppages in Denton. A total of three
elections have been held within the last five years - one to unionize
Ohio Rubber Company and the other two to unionize Jostens, a jewelry
manufacturer, All three of these elections were lost by unions.

affiliations. The three major employers having union membership are
the following:
NAME OF MANUFACTURER TOTAL NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES
t Moore Business Forms 605

Denton embraces newcomers with' the friendliness and peaceful atmosphere
of a small college town, yet offers many of the same opportunities and
facilities of a large metropolitan area. City parks, swimming pools,
e tennis courts, aW golf courses all provide excellent recreational
opportunities along with many water sport activities possible at any of
Denton's nearby lakes. Cultural activities abound at the two mtajor
universities of Dentont North Texas State University and Texas Woman's
University. Both universities sponsor artists, symphony orchestras,
ballets and lectures at popular prices. The Greater Denton Arts Council
provides a strong support network for the development ana improvement of
the artistic, cultural, and educational quality of the community. Arts
1 organizations incluaei an e;cpanding community theatre, a visual arts
league, a community bandy an emerging orchestra, and a fast-growing civic
ballet. An exciting new challenge to the community involves the
' renovation of two buildings donated by the City for an Arts Complex which
will consist of restaurants, galleries, studios, and shops combined into
' a Visual Arts Center and a Performing Arts Center.

alternatives are available, including large estates, traditional single family
homes, townhouses, condominiums, single family attached homes, duplexes, small

DEN`'ON DEVELOPMENT GUIDE
r the Denton Development Guide provides the current land use policies
(Comprehensive Land Use Plan) that are used as an aid in day-to-day
development decisions by staff formulatingg their recommendations to
' developers and by appointed and elected officials in making final
decisions.
The guide emphasizes the physical development, policies including
location, scale of developments, and general desired performance
levels.
r The policies for the overall growth frame-work will center around
basic objectives of:
1. Protection of Existing Develo ment,'pnrticulariy residential
evelopment.
2. Encoura in Develo ment where public facilities capacity is
a rea y ava a e and ecologically sensitive areas are not
significantly impacted.
3. Providing and Maintaining an Uverall City balance, between;
a) Transportation and Land Use
The transportation land use concept map provides the
basic policy for this balance insofar as regional and
' local transit systems and individual automobile traffic
is concerned. (Integrating pedestrian, bike and/or scooter
traffic is intended by policy but details are beyond the
scope of this plan.)
b) Population and Utilities
The lcug-range development concept suggests raising over-
all city densities only slightly over current Levels of 6.2
people per developed acre to average density of 6.5 people
' per acre. Translated to the 55 square mile study area
would mean a possible physical holding capacity of 175,000
to 225,000 people. This population figure corresponds with
current long range utility planning policies and projects.
based on current development trends, the current basic
utility structure would accommodate growth into the 21st
Century and provide basic utility facilities for 100,000
' people, Any development beyond this figure would assume
adequate energy resources and acceptable economic and eco-
logical costs in order to support life styles realized
today,
-53-
INDUSTRIAL LAND USE GENERAL LOCATIONAL POLICY
The plan suggests industrial activities in large and moderate-,
sized concentrations, with the majority of the potential in three
industrial areas; the Airport area, the North I-35/Hwy 77 area,
and(generally
and r~outheast e by Denton Triangle thelWestarea

SUMMARY
of
ZONING ORDINANCE
' To obtain a building permit within the city, the proposed land use
must conform co the city zoning ordinance. The City of Denton has
a traditional district zoning ordinance that covers all of the
city for all uses. The current ordinanoe was adopted in 1969 wit;
minor modifications since that date. The following are zoning
' ordinance requirements most commonly inquired about by industrial.
developers.
Minimum Lot Areas,
Lot Width, or Lot Depth - None
' Floor Area Ratio
- Light industrial District - 2:1
- Heavy Industl.ial District - 1:1
r building Setback Requirement - 25 feet
General Parking Requirements
One space for each two (2) employees, or one space for
each 1,000 square feet of floor area, whichever is greater.
Loading spaces also required depending on size of building.
' Zoning or rezoning applications must be made with the Planning and
Community Development Department. Zoning maps and regulations are
' on display at the Planning and Community Development Department.

1 PKOMUr1.5
The term "subdivision" shall mean the division of any tract or
parcel of land into two (2) or more parts for the purpose, imme-
diate or future, of sale or development. City of Benton subdivi-
sion regulations govern property within the incorporated city
' limits, as well as, property outside the city limits for a dis-
tance of two (2) miles. Building permits cannot be Issued for any
property that is not included on an approved and properly recorded
' preliminary and final plat.
When subdivision approval is required, the petitioner is encour-
aged to consult city staff during the early s4ages of subdivision
planning (typically before arranging development financing.)
1 Discussions should begin with the Development Review Planner of
the Planning and Community Development, Department, Gity depart-
ments and divisions, franchise utiliLies, Chamber of Commerce,
Denton Independent School'District, Missouri-Pacific railroad, and
others involved in subdivision planning and subsequent provision
1 of infrastructure, public facilities and services are represented
on the Development Review Committee.
1 This technical review coamnittee assembles once per week so as to
provide industrial and development interests with an opportunity
to receive input and information on subdivision and development
requiremenL,c, without arranging separate and independent meetings
with affected departments or agencies. once formal application is
made, all engineerings plans, plats, fees and related information
should be delivered to the Planning and Community Development
Department and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission
and/or City Council.

POLICE 04PAR9NENP
The Denton Police Department currently employs 71 full-time licensed
police officers and 15 part-time school crossing guards.
Organizationally, the Department is divided into three divisions:
Patrol, Criminal Investigation and Pdministration. The Patrol Division
is comprised of 52 personnel who are responsible for the 24-hour
protection of citizen rights and property, traffic enforcement, accident
' investigation and calls for service. The Criminal Investigation Division
has 13 investigators who are responsible for the investigation of
criminal activity, preparation of criminal cases for court presentation,
and general crime analysis.
C+ur school crossing guard program is made up of non-licensed personnel
who are responsible for child safety at several designated school
crossing locations. School guards are assigned high-traffic
intersections that are in proximity of all Denton public schools in order
' to insure that children who walk or ride bicycles to and from school will
reach their destinations safely.
The Police Department has instituted a very successful crime prevention
' program which is currently made up of two licensed police officers.
Modern and proven crime prevention techniques are aimed at our
' businesses, neighborhoods, elderly citizens and schools. In 19821 these
efforts were at least partly responsible for an 11.9% decrease in major
crimes. This is especially significant when most cities are suffering
' dramatic increases in crime rates,
Our crime prevention efforts are especially noticeable in residential
areas where organized citizen groups have banded together in neighborhood
' committees and formed "watch groups". Each watch area has signs posted
that waLn woula-be criminals that residents in the area or neighborhood
are watching am will report any suspicious activity to the police
immediately.

' In relation to the, decrease in major crime the Department's Criminal
Investigation Division has compiled a clearance rate of 32.8$ of all
reported incidents of crime. %be 198. National average clearance rate as
published by the F,B.I, was 198.
r other public service programs currently being implemented in an effort to
combat crime arel
r
(1) Operation I.U, - Citizens are encouraged to use
r Department-furnished engraving pens to "mark" vulnerable
property for identification purposes as well as a deterrent
' factor.
r (2) Business and Residential Security Surveys - Surveys are
available from trained crime prevention officers who go to
businesses or residences to perform security checks and
r reconntend security improvements to lesson the possibility of
attack.

CouliCil will need to address two poitlts before the COntr;ict With the Suite
School is approved:
1. Is the City willing to assume the cost of the fence as
stipulated in the contract ($5,000.00)•
Is the City able to Maintain the grounds of the proposed
park so it appa.ars similIr to the State School property,
Tu provide a Clays A mowing schedule (once every 7 to b workini
davs) as well. as daily tra+lh pick-up and periodic spraying and
fertili;::Itiun for this curl acre tract the Parks [Avision would
need 56,135.00 per year in Additional funds for staff overtime,
materials and supplies and repair to equipment.
The parks and itec:cation Board reconunends approval of the lease of property
from the Denton Statc School for the purpose of creating a part: in the area :t
the Briarcliff Addi.tinn. This lease is to be presented to the Menton City C:.nlcil
by City Attorne'. C. J. '1'avior it the meeting of April 20, 198). The Parks a'.iUle

I•lle• Board feels that this opportunity for cooperation is a unique chance fe: the
City io provide, park set'vices at a reasonable cost for the Briarcliff area residents.
We Oise understand the financial constraint:: the t;ity is now experiencing a:l.: are
not. rocommclldil%0: ;till development of the park at this time. We feel that t:.•; City,
in workinc with the neighbors and area businesses call COmplete much of the 1CVelOp-
vient over th'2 next two or three Years.
This recouunendati;ln does create the following concerns;
L. In the absence of a Park Master Plan for the City we could be vv-mg
about the. location of this park. But this park site will ser•:i~e
the immadiate needs of the Briarcliff area and will Only cost .:IC City
funds ro maintain ttie property and any development necessary.
Approximately $11,000.00 will be needed to get this project oi: Hit?
ground for the fence and maintenance. If the maintenance funds are
not forthcoming„ then all mowing during the mowing season will be
backed up appro>:imately one-half day per 7 to 8 day cycle. "hi: will
have a negative impact oil existing maintenance of other parks and
aC11 tic areas.
l.t is pusr;ible that. the neighbors from the area could be of s e help
in the development and ongoing maintenance but it i.s difficuL' until
the .assistance is actually given, as to its impact on this prc~~'ct.
T;~re has been a great deal of, support. indicated but it is 1 11:~ssi1) 1 c
t' 'Rn<x; the full extent of support until we acthall.y do 5 oIIIe ta.:~ii
2-. April 26, 1983
At this time the Hoard fools that the positive aspects outweigh the negativo
and that this is a worthy project to pursue, if funds are not available
for the fencing or maintenance then it would be impossible to enter into
this agreement at this time.

Rei Proposed Settlement of Case
The hearings in the General Telephone case, which began Monday,
April 18, 1983, have been recessed for consideration of a
proposed settlement. The proposed settlement, which is outlined
below, will be discussed at a meeting of all cities to be held in
Austin on Thursday, April 28 1983 at 11 a.m. in the Maximillian
Room of the Dr s Hotel. P ease ave some representative at
suc meet ng you possibly can. If you can not have a
representative at the meeting please call the office of Don
Butler at 512/476-6604 and indicate if you are in favor of or
opposed to the amount of the settlement by 10 a.m, Thursday
morning, April 28, 1983,
The Company has requested an increase of approximately $84.5
million, The Company's request, by rate category and service, is
shown on the attachments along with the present rates and the
proposed increases. The cities have recommended an increase of
appro.nimately $28.5 million. The recommendation of the PUC
staff is in the $34 million range.
The Company has indicated its willingness to accept an increase
of $32.5 million. This would result in increases of 906 to $1.00
per month for one party residential customers without EAB, rather
than the $3,75 to $4.00 requested.
The Company has proposed an optional measured service to be
implemented on January 1, 1984. Such proposal has produced mixed
reactions from different city officials. For this reason, and
because of the differences in exchanges due to size and time, the
consolidated group of cities has refrained from taking any
specific positions on rate design. As you can see the
implementation of optional local measured service will result in
a loss of revenues from those customers who switch to such
service necessitating an increase to other customers effective
January 11 1984.
