A formal policy will be developed after these key issues are decided, This policy will be brought to the Council for approval, Exhibit ITT showns some of the infill areas that { have been identified, S11MMARY/BACKGROUNDe The PUB and the City Council have been developing a °Infill" Policy over the last few years, This item was last discussed by the council at its December 11, 1995 work session, The PUB has discussed thi.u item at their December 13, 1995 and January 17, 1996 meetings, The nIn£ill Policy" is an exception to our normal extension policy, PROGRAMS, DEPARTMENTS OR GROUPS AFPECTEDI City of.`DenLon citizens, Water Department and Wastewater Department, FISCAL percent of IMPACT) The maximum cost that is being considered is 2 and $215,297 total the Wastewater Department-, based on theaFiscal Year 1996 budget, i RRSPEC Y SUBMTTTEDi P a d i Acting City Manager Howard Martin Director of Environmental Operationo Raved ~ y0 i Robert > Nelson, P, 8. sxecutive Director of Utilities Attachment iExhibit I, Key Issues TT.

FUNDING r r A) Utilization of excess Development Plan Line Funding. This would provide a maximum funding of $250,000 each year, for both water and wastewater, B) Percentage of gross revenues (1 - 2 percent each year), This would provide $296,237 for the water department and $215,297 for the wastewater department based on the 1996 fiscal year budget. C) A fixed amount of money each year, D) An fixed allocation of funding between residential and commercial E) No allocation between residential and commercial, Money r available on a first come first served basis, The PUB recommends Options A and E. Also, tho present million cap on reserves for this fund would be eliminated,2 $ 3. TYPE OF PROJECTS ELIGIBLE FOR PLrUDING Al Residential 8) Commercial C, Projects within the City limits D) Projects outside the City limits E) Projects internal to the utility service area The PtM recommends Options At Be C and E. projects only existing developed areas would be For resintial eligible, New developments would not qualify, For commercial areas, the City would pre-selects sites/areas that would be eligible. 1 1 r Aponda No. 9, FUNDING ISSUES - RESIDENTIAL Apondoitem Wt. A) Upfront funding by the City of. all cos B) Citizens pay their share up front C) Fixed participation percentages - 75k City, 25% Residents D) Sliding scale participation percentages E) 10Wk participation F) Less than 100 participation ' 0) Payment plan over a five to te.n year period, H) No payment plan r ! , The PUB reoommends Options A, C, F and a, Less than 100 participation would only be allowed if the participating ' i residents paid the entire 25t share, However, this would allow those residents who did not participate to connect later at no cost, other than the normal tap fee, There may be problems with a payment plan (i,e. pavement assessments). However a lot of these people may not be able to pay their cost upfront, 51 FUNDING ISSUES COMMERCIAL The same issues were considered for the commercial area as with the residential area, The PUB recommends Options B, D and H. The dcvelopers would pay all costs upfront just as we do now with development plan line and oversize participation contracts, No payment plans would be made available, A sliding scale was being considered, It would be based on tin evaluation formula, The staff has worked on the development of a formula, We do not think that a formula can be developed that would be fair and equitable, instead staff is proposing a fixed funding percentage. Sections 212.071 and 212,072 of the Local Government Code require that the city comply with the competitive bidding procedures if our participation exceeds 30t of the total contract price. Therefore staff would propose a fixed funding level of 30t,, This would allow the developer to bid the project on his own, 6, PROJECT IDENTIFICATION / EVALUATION - RE;91DEN'I'IAL A) Projects pre-selected B) Projects evaluated as they are submitted, 11` Y P AWda No. W Cep AWda ltam - C) Evaluation Criteria Daio? ;y 1) Costs per connection 2) Environmental and health Concerns 3) Located within corr.. service area 4) Growth potential The PUS reoommends Options a and C, 7, PROJECT IDENTIFICATION / EVALUATION - COMMERCIAL { A) Projects pre-selected i } B) Projects evaluated as they are submitted.

Does it violate the "gift" Provision, is there a public benefit to these extensions? 8) Will this give a competitive advantage to some property owner? D) Can funds expended for this purpose be excluded from "Nat Investment". Therefore no return on investment would be paid on these assets, Agenda No..,. Agenda Item Cate .

Nelson, Executive Director of utilities DATE: February 22, 1996 RE: RAY R089ATS PRESENT, FUTURE, RECREATION, AND GIREENBELT DEBT RMF'INANCINO, WASTEWATER SOND SALE AND SOL.TD WASTE DOM SALE i The Public Utility Board (PUB) and Staff recommend the refinancing of the Lake Ray Roberts present water supply, future water supply, recreation, and greenbelt debts. The proposal is to refinance the debt using two revenue bond issues, one for $42,235,000 and the other for $33,255,000 for a total of $75,490,000, The PUB and Staff also recommend a $2,750,000 Wastewater revenue bond sale and a $5,000,000 Solid Waste certificate of obligation bond sale, RAY ROBERTO REVENUE DEBT REF`INANCI The refinancing of the Lake Ray Roberts debt is estimated to result In gross savings of approximately $89,000,000 and present value savings of approximately $11,900,000, This refinancing would also shortening the debt payment term by twenty-three years, with the final payment in 2024 versus 2047, The exact financial impact on the Water Utility will depend on the final interest rate and the repayment schedule. The real dollar benefit of this proposed refinancing will occur when the refinancing debt is paid off in 30 years and no payments are required for the next 23 years. During payment of the refinancing debt, annual payments will be somewhat higher than if the existing debt is not refinanced, In particular, fiscal year 1997 and 1998 annual debt payments will increase by approximately $900,000 over current projected debt payments. However, the staff believes this added amount can be managed with the previsouly planned 0 water rate increases in 1997 and 1998 which is part of the rate ramping strategy necessary to finance the Ray Roberts Water Plant planned for 2005. By 1999, the refinanced debt payments would "Dedtcated to Q:11181y S'e vkv" a ~AJMO 7 only be $1oo, ooo per n'` "I 4n.- Year higher than our ? d o ec d WG~~ payments, -_l It is proposed to use a combination of cash reserves and moderate rate increases to offset the increased debt, cost over the next- few years, The utility strategic plan, Established several years ago, has been to moderately ramp up water rates to avoid a large rate increase when the future water payment begins in 1999, This existing strategy remains viable under the proposed refinancing, in combination with the use of reserves accumulated during the past few years, The proposed Ray Roberts debt refinancing would be accomplished by paying off the present water supply and recreation debt now and paying off the future water and greenbelt debt in 1998. The reason for the delay in paying off the future water and greenbelt debts is that a City of Denton/Army Corps of Engineers contract amendment would be required, and this action could take a year or longer to accomplish, since the current interest rates are very low, it is desirable for Denton to lock in the current rates by selling all of the required debt now to satisfy both current and future debt: requirements, This can be accomplished by two separate debt issues sold at once. The proceeds from one issue will be received now to refinance present water and recreation debt, whereas the proceeds from the second bond issue will not actually be received until required in 1998. This second debt issue represents a "forward delivery" instrument in that the rate is determined now for funds delivered at a future date, Due to the size of the debt issue and the complexity of PirstrSothwdelivery" bond est, recommends stthat Dethetlsale ibe negotlated ras i apposed to the normal bid process, I WASTEWATER RLVLh9 BOND BALL The $2,'150,000 wastewater bond sale is required for currently toptheewastewat re1treatment plant, aThis land purchase will adjacent primarily as a buffer area for the wastewater treatment plant, for a biosolids injection area and to support the city's greenway system along the pecan creek flood plain, SOLID WASTE CEI3TYFICATE OF Q 3LIOATION klOND ,NL4 The $5,000,000 bond sale, consisting of $3,325,000 in twenty year bonds and $1,675,000 in five year bonds, is required to continue the current approved solid waste CIP and land purchase programs, These funds are needed to keep the r AXfd,11 NT D, court, A landfill expansion project on schedule, DOn August 15, 1980, the City of Denton entered into contracts for the right to utze an undivided 26~ of the total. water storage in Lake Ray Roberts and Lewisville Lake, and for the development of recreational facilities related to the project, The Water Utility is now paying debt service on the present water supply and recreation projects. Payment on part of the Water fiscal supply, designated as future water, was delayed until 99, The begin inefiscal year 1998 when ethe project will s be e completed, Pursuant to Article 5a of the water storage contract, and Article 3(6) of the recreational contract, the City of Denton has the right to prepay these debts without penalty, The interest rate on the existing Ray Roberts debts is 7,21, The current bond market interest rate is approximately 5,4% which makes this prepayment option attractive at this time, Since the greenbelt and future water supply not scheduled to begin until the fall of 997 payments respectively, bond funds would be placed in escrow for this 1998 debt and paid when the debts are due. A relatively small amount of bond funds ($500,000) would be sold to cover any adjustments in project costs that might occur in the future, Ray Roberts Refinanain Estimated Gross Savings Estimated Present Value Savings $ 89,003,000 $ 11,649,000 Estimated 1996 bond sale $ 75,490,000 Wastewater Bona ate 1996 CIP Bond Fund Projects Cordova & Stuart Projects $ 2,530,000 Composting Facility 430,000 Additional Land Purchase 600,000 7- 5 1996 Total Bond Projects Q1000 Bond Funds Available 4,310,000 1.560 000 1996 Proposed Wastewater bond sale $ 2,750, 000 ,Salid Waste Bond St_atLi6 1996 Short Term Bond Fund P;:,) 1996 Long Term Bond Fund Proje'. $ 1,675,000 1996 Total Bond Requirements 6 4,62_ _ 000 ,3000 0,000 A 199 6 Long Term Bond fund Pro eats Long Term Bond Funds Available 1996 Long 'perm Bond Sale Required 3 325 000 1996 Short Term Bond Sale Required , 1, 675, OOQ 1996 Total Bond Requirements 6,300,000 Long Term Bond Funds Available IA=000 1996 Proposed Solid Waste Bond Sale $ 510000000 Respectfully Submitted, R, C, Nelson, Rxecutive Director Utilities Rxhibits, 1, Draft City of Denton refinancing calculations with the United States Army Corps of Engineers 2.

REPQR' T0; Mayor and Members of the Clty Council PROM; Rick Svehla, Acting City Manager SUEJECT; DEBT SERVICE MANAGEMENT POLICY MOMMENDATION; Staff recommends that the City Counoll approve the attached Debt Service Management Policy, The document represants our current practices and was designed to be a comprehensive capital financing policy, DA-MM UM: State and local governments in the United States finance capital Improvements In many dlfforent ways. Current revenues from taxation, property assessments, user fees, fines and forfeitures are used as a sort of "pay-as-you-go" method of Improving Infrastructure, Grants are another Important source of revenue, although this source has deollned in Importance over the last few decades, Most Important, however, Is the use of borrowed funds and these are largely obtalned from the sales of securities. As citizens of the United States became more moblie, moving their place of residence on an average of once every five years, the use of bonds to finance Infrastructure has taken on a new Importance. By using bonds to finance oapital improvements, new residents pay a proportionate share of debt service through taxatlon for Improvements that were made to accommodate their arrival, )'he use of bonds also is appropriate when the necessary improvements are too oxponslve to be affordable on the basis of a single approprlatlon, Because of the scrutiny of local government's financial management due to the default of Orange County, Callfornla and other events ocourring around the country, it is now Important to reduce our current capital finanoing practices to writing, This polloy will improve communication among staff members, Indlvlduals In our community, bond rating agencies and those Indlvlduals who purchase our securities, We are also hopeful that this document will assist In persuading national rating agencies to Improve our bond rating. SUMMARY, Although the polloy Is comprehensive, It Is not unnecessarily restrictive, The Issues In the policy range from Identifying the individuals who will be responsible for the debt management program of the city to Identlfioation of the type of debt Instruments that will be utilized. The policy also discusses the bidding parameters for accepting compotitfve bids and debt enhancement alternatives, Finally, the polloy discusses ways In which we can limit our arbitrage Ilabiilty PROGRAMS, DEP MjM Tj_QR GROUPS AFFECTED; All of the departments, divisions and agoncles of the City of Denton that utilize debt funds will be affecterf by the polloy, In addition, our bond rating agencies, financial advisor, bond counsel and the Indlvlduals who purchase our securities will be offerted.

Finance Officer, and Internal Auditorl and Financial. Advisor and Bond Counsel as ex-offioio members, The responsibilities of the committee shall be toI • meet as necessary to consider the need for financing and assess progress on the Capi.il Improvement program, • meet as necessary in preparation for a financing, e review changes in state And federal legislation, and to, • review annually the provisions of ordinances and/or resolutions authorizing issuance of obligations, and to • annually review services provided by the Financial Advisor, Bond Counsel and Paying Agent to evaluate the extent and effectiveness of sorvices being provided, Prior to the debt management committee meetings, a written report shall be prepared on the statue of Capital Improvement program financing. The report shall be based in part on information collected from the primary capital improvement project managers in the city and shall include a projection of near term financing needs compared to available ' resources, an analysis of the impact of contemplated financings on the property tax rate, utility rates, usar charges, and a financing recommendation. In developing financing recommendations, the Debt Management Committee shall consider: 1 e the time proceeds of obligation are expected to remain on hand and the related carrying coat! • the options for interim financing including short-term and interfund borrowing, taking into consideration federal and state reimbursement regulations! • the effect of proposed aoti)n on the tax rate and user charges!

Bond Counsel Involvement Solid counsel shall advise the City Council in all matters pertaining to its bond ordinance(s) and;'or resolution(s), and no action shall be taken with respect to new obligations until a written instrument has been prepared by the bond attorneys certifying the legality of the proposal. The bond attorneys shall prepare all ordinances and other legal instruments required in the execution and sale of any bonds issued, which shall be reviewed by the City Attorney and Director of Fiscal Operations. The City will also seek the advice of bond counsel on all other types of financings and on any other questions involving federal tax or arbitrage law. Financial Advisor Involvement The City will seek the advice of the financial advisor on an ongoing basis. The financial advisor will advise on the structuring of obligations to be issued, inform the City of various options, advise the City as to how choices will impact the marketability of City obligations and will provide other services as defined by the agreement approved by the City Council. SHORT-TERII DEBT General -te which themCityiulti ately intendssto issueilong-term~debt; oi.e., it portions will of be projects when appropriate, to provide interim financing which will eventually be refunded with the proceeds of long-term obligations. Short-term obligations may be backed with a tax and/or revenue pledge, or a pledge of other available resources. Interim financing may be appropriate when long-term interest rates are expected to decline in the future. In addition, some forms of short-term obligations can be obtained quicker than long-term obligations and thus can be used until long-term financing can be obtained. Commercial Paper Due to exorbitant issuance costs associated with the marketing and placement of commercial paper in amounts of less than approximately $30 million, it is not considered feasible for the City of Denton to issue this type of debt. In additior, cities may legally only issue commercial paper for revenue supported projects. Howev(,r, should the opportunity to participate in a commercial paper issuance pool present itself, the advantages and disadvantages shall be evaluated by the Director of Fiscal Operations. LONG-TERM DEBT General Proceeds from the sale of long-term obligations will not be used for operating purposes, and the life of the obligations will not exceed the estimated useful life of the projects financed. Debt service structure will approximate level debt service unless operational matters AAA03 F 19 Revised OL23r96 Agenda No?AGE _nzoq POLICY/ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE/ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTIVE (Cc &W&J11m S TITLE: DEBT SERVICE MANAGEMENT and marketing considerations dictate otherwise. Unless circumstances dictate the issuance of larger amounts for a major project or projects, the City will strive to limit its annual issuance of long-term obligations to either $5 million or $10 million to take advantage of small issuer exemptions in the federal arbitrage laws. Should subsequent changes in the law raise these limits, then the City's policies will be adjusted accordingly. i The cost of issuance of private activity bonds is usually higher than for governmental purpose bonds. Consequently, private activity bonds will be issued only when they will economically benefit the City. The cost of taxable debt is higher than for tax-exempt debt. However, the issuance of taxable debt may be more appropriate in some circumstances, and may allow valuable flexibility in subsequent contracts with users or managers of the improvement constructed with the bond proceeds. Therefore, the City will usually issue tax-exempt obligations, but may occasionally issue taxable obligation. Bonds Long-term general obligation or revenue bonds shall be issued to finance significant and desirable capital improvements. The general obligation bonds will be used for purposes set forth by voters in bond elections. General obligations bonds will have an average life of approximately 15 years or less, and Revenue bonds will have an average life of approximately twenty (20) years or less. A resolution of intent to issue bonds authorizing staff to proceed with preparations shall be presented for the consideration of the City Council when the capital budget is presented or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible. All bonds issued for the purpose of supplying new monies as needed for current, ongoing public improvements shall be sold at a public, competitive sale based upon sealed bids pursuant to terms and conditions specified in the City's Home Rule Charter which requires the publication of a proper notice of sale in a national publication which regularly includes municipal bond sale notices, stating pertinent facts relating to the proposed sale including, but not limited to, the time, the date and the place (which shall be in the City of Denton) that all sealed bids will be publicly opened, read and tabulated before the City Council. The date advertised for opening of the bids shall be not less than 30 days from tLe date of publication. When cost.-beneficial and when permitted under applicable ordinances, the City may consider the use of surety bonds, lines of credit or similar instruments to satisfy mandated debt service fund requirements on outstanding and/or proposed revenue bonds. Certificates of obligation Certificates of obligation may be issued to finance permanent improvements and land acquisition, the need for which arose between bond elections. In addition, they may also be used to finance cost overruns or to acquire equipment. In accordance with state law, a resolution authorizing publication of notice of intent to issue certificates of obligation shall be presented for the consideration of the City council no less than 30 days before the proposed issuance. The notice of intent shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the city once a week for two consecutive weeks with the first publication to be at least fifteen (15) days prior to the sale date. AAA03F19 Revised 02123!96 r p c.7 I:Pr POLICY/ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE/ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTIVE (Con TITLE: DEBT SERVICE MANAGEMENT REFERENCE NUMBER: Certificates of obligation can be backed by revenues eligible to be pl.lged under state law. Some revenues are restricted as to the uses for which they may be pledged. Electric, Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste revenues may be pledged wi,:hout limit for Electric, Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste purposes, but may only be pledged up to $10,000 for non-water and wastewater purposes. I Certificates of obligation may also be backed by a tax pledge under certain circumstances as defined by law. They may also be backed by a combination tax and revenue pledge. ! Public Property Finance Contractual obligation Public property finance contractual obligations may be issued to finance the acquisition of personal property. Anticipation Notes Anticipation notes empower municipalities to issue debt without giving notice of intent. Anticipation notes may be secured and repaid by a singular pledge, but not a plural pledge, of revenue, taxes, or the proceeds of a future debt issue. Anticipation notes might be authorized by an ordinance adopted by the City Council. Anticipation notes may be used to finance projects or acquisitions that could also be financed with certificates of obligation. Anticipation notes have several restrictions which include: 1) Anticipation notes issued for general purposes must mature before the seventh anniversary of the date the attorney general approves the issue, 2) Anticipation notes may not be used to repay interfund borrowing or a borrowing that occurred up to/or more than 29-months prior to the date of issuance, 3) A governing body may not issue anticipation notes that are payable from bond proceeds unless the proposition authorizing the issuance of the bonds has already been approved by the voters. Negotiated Sale and Private Placement Bonds issued for the purpose of refunding and/or restructuring outstanding debt may appropriately be sold on a negotiated basis when maximum flexibility is required in order for the City to respond to day-to-day nuances in the marketplace, and other complications peculiar to the issuance of refunding debt. whenever the option exists to sell an issue on a negotiated basis, an analysis of the options shall be performed to aid in the deciuion-making process. In a negotiated sale, the underwriter may be selected through a requ=st for proposals (RFP) or because of a relationship established by previous debt transactions. The criteria used to select an underwriter in a negotiated sale should include the following: e Overall experience e Marketing philosophy e Capability e Previous experience as managing or co-managing partner e Financial statement AAA03F19 Revised 0213,96 i` F rApenC, NBAGE 5 POLICY/ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE/ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTIVE (Con AN64)"em TITLE: DEBT SERVICE MANAGEMENT • Public finance team and resources • Breakdown of underwriter's discount When cost-beneficial, the City may privately place its debt. Since no underwriter participates in a private placement, it may result in lower cost of issuance. 7rivate placement is sometimes an option for small issues. The opportunity may be identified by the financial advisor. Bidding Parameters The notice of sale will be carefully constructed so as to ensure the best possible bid for the City, in light of existing market conditions and other prevailing factors. Parameters to be examined include: • Limits between lowest and highest coupons • Coupon requirements relative to the yield curve • Method of underwriter compensation, discount or premium coupons • Use of true interest cost (TIC) versus net interest cost (NIC) • Use of bond insurance • Deep discount bonds • Variable rate bonds • Call provisions The City shall consider refuneing debt whenever an analysis indicates the potential for present value savings of approximately 3.5F of the debt service being refunded. The City will not refund less than 5F of its outstanding debt at one time except in unusual circumstances such as when it intends to change bond covenants, or in the event the City's beat interests would be served by the restructuring of all or portions of outstanding debt. CAPITAL LEASING Capital leasing is an option for the acquisition of a piece or package of equipment. Leasing shall not be considered when funds are on hand for the acquisition unless the interest expense associated with the lease is less than the interest that can be earned by investing the funds on hand or when other factors such as budget constraints, need for reserves or vendor responsiveness override the economic consideration. Whenever a lease is arranged with a private sector entity, a tax exempt rate shall be sought. The lease agreement shall permit the City to refinance the lease at no more than reasonable cost should the City decide to do so. A lease which can be called at will is preferable to one which can merely be accelerated. Since the market for lease financings is relatively inefficient, the interest rates available at any one time may vary widely. Thereforz, the City shall consider obtaining at least three competitive proposals for any major lease financing. The net present val'ie of competitive bids shall be compared, taking into account whether payments are made in advance or in arrears, and how frequently payments are made. The purchase price of equipment shall be competitively bid as well as the financing cost. AAA03F19 Ro i_scd 02123!96 ends No, POLICY/ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURB/ADMINISTRATIVB DIRECTIVE (C n f d~69'... TiTLF.: DEBT SERVICE MANAGEMENT The advice of the city's bond counsel and financial advisor shall be sought in any leasing arrangement and when federal tax forms 8038 are prepared to ensure that all federal tax laws are considered and complied with. The City may consider issuing certificates of participation to finance a very large project. Care should be taken because financing costs may be greater than for other types of financing. When possible, the lease agreement will be backed with a tax pledge. If the City is obligated to make payments more than a year in the future then the agreement will probably be considered debt by the state. However, if the payments are subject to annual appropriation by the City Council, then they may not. From time to time other types of financing may become available. Examples of these options are debt pools with other entities and low-interest loans from state agencies such as the Texas Water Development Board. At the direction of the Director of Fiscal Operations, the Treasury staff member(s) will prepare a written analysis of options. The analysis will include consideration of the advice of the City's bond counsel and financial advisor and be presented to debt management committee. RATIOS The Electric, Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste Funds total long-term debt outstanding shall not exceed the amount of combined fund equity. The City has both revenue bonds and other indebtedness of the Electric, Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste Funds. The City will endeavor to maintain two coverage ratios: 1.25 for revenue bonds; "technical coverage" and 1.25 for all indebtedness; "practical coverage." OFFICIAL STATEMENT The preparation of the Official Statement is the responsibility of the financial advisor in concert with the Director of Fiscal operations under the supervision of the Executive 14 Director of Finance. Information for the Official Statement is gathered from departments/divisions throughout the City. The City will take all appropriate steps to comply with the federal disclosure rules (i.e., Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 1502-12). The City will provide annual and event disclosure to information repositories throughout the term of securities for the benefit of the primary and secondary municipal markets. Full disclosure of the operations will be made to the bond rating agencies. The City staff, with the assistance of the financial advisors and bond counsel, will prepare the necessary materials for and presentation to the rating agencies. The City shall maintain a line of communication with the rating agencies (Moody's and and ThenComprehe sive sAnn them of major Budget nandlCaevents in the pital Improvement a Plan they ube distributed to the rating agencies after they have been accepted/adopted by the City Council. The rating agencies will also be notified either by telephone or through written correspondence when the City begins preparation for a debt issuance. After the initial contact, a formal ratings application will be prepared and sent along with the draft of the Official Statement relating to the bond sale to the rating agencies. This application and related documentation should be sent several weeks prior to the bond sale to give the rating agencies sufficient time to perform their review. AkA03F19 Revised ON2 3/ 96 I it POLICY/ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE/ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTIVE (font u~ Cd~f")s ^ V~ `a N, t;em se TITLE: DEBT SERVICE MANAGEMENT s A personal meeting with representatives of the rating agencies will be scheduled when a major capital improvement program is initiated, or to discuss material economical and/or financial developments which might impact credit ratings. CREDIT ENHANCEMENTS Credit enhancements are mechanisms which guarantee principal and interest payments. They include bond insurance and a line or letter of credit. A credit enhancement, while costly, will usually bring a lower interest rate on debt and a higher rating from the rating agencies, thus lowering overall costs. Cost effectiveness of credit enhancement will be evaluated for each debt issue. ARBITRAGE LIABILITY MANAGEMENT It is the City's policy to minimize the cost of arbitrage rebate and yield restriction compliance %hile strictly complying with the federal arbitrage laws. General Federal arbitrage legislation is intended to discourage entities from issuing tax-exempt obligations unnecessarily. In compliance with the spirit of this legislation, the City will not issue obligations except for identifiable projects with very goad prospects of timely initiation. Obligations will be issued as closely in time as feasible to the time contracts are expected to be awarded so that they will be spent quickly. Responsibility Because of the complexity of the arbitrage regulations and the severity of the penalties for noncompliance, the advice of bond counsel and other qualified experts will be sought whenever questions about arbitrage rebate regulations arise. The Director of Fiscal operations will maintain a system for tracking the arbitrage rebate liability and ensuring that required calculations are performed on a timely basis. They will either perform internal calculations or engage an expert to perform arbitrage rebate calculations at least annually. Funds should be set aside for any potential liability so that sufficient amounts will be available to pay any required rebate amount. The expenditures of obligation proceeds will be tracked in the financial accounting system by issue. Investments may be pooled for financial accounting and investment purposes. When bond proceeds are commingled with other investments, the City shall adhere to the Internal Revenue Ser-tice regulations regarding the accounting and allocation of the commingled funds. Exceptions to the Rebate Requirement The arbitrage regulations provide several exceptions that will exempt interest earnings on a bond issue from the rebate requirement. These exceptions currently include: (1) small issuer exception, (2) six month spending exception, (3) 18-month spending exception, (4) 24-month construction spending exception, (5) investment in certain tax- exempt bonds, and (6) reimbursement of expenses paid prior to delivery of an issue. The City will coordinate with their arbitrage consultant, bond counsel and financial advisor to take advantage of these exceptions whenever they are in the beat interest of the City. AAA03F 19 Aevised 02/23196 J /ryNWa .1m DATE: February 23, 1996 CITY COUNCIL REPORT WORK SESSION TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Rick Svehla - Acting City Manager SUBJECT: Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) Program RECOMMENDATION: The City Council requested a report on the Job Partnership Training Act (JTPA) in the City of Denton and within the City's workforce. This report includes an outline of the anticipated impact in our community recognizing that the Summer Youth program is not scheduled for funding by the federal government. Funding for the other JTPA programs (described below) are antic,pated to be significant cut. SU MA The JTPA program was enacted in 1983 as a replacement of the original CETA program. It is the purpose of the Job Training Partnership Act to establish programs to prepare youth and adults facing serious barriers to employment. It assists them in participating in the labor force by providing job training and other services that will result in increased employment. The community benefits with increased employment, earnings, educational and occupational skills and welfare dependency is decreased. The overall quality of the work force is improved and the productivity and competitiveness of the community is enhanced. The JTPA programs available in Denton are: 1. Title IIA - Disadvantaged Adults - this program assists eligible adults, age 22 and older, in a year-round program in assessin3 and identifying barriers to their employment and provides JTPA program options to overcome these barriers. 2. Title IIB - Summer Youth - this program is for eligible youth ages 14 - 21. JTPA staff recruits work sites, provides orientation to supervisors, recruits and certifies eligible youth, assigns youth to work sites, and provides extensive orientation to youth on the world of work. The program staff then monitor the participants' progress on the work site and provides minimum wage salary on a maximum 40 hour work wee'i. The length of the program is determined by available funds, and the program is available only during the period of the summer when the youth are not scheduled for required public school attendance. THIS PROGRAM IS NOT FUNDED FOR 1996. Agenda No. Agenda ftem Data ~_.7 ~l February 23, 1996 CM Report to City Council - JTPA Program Page 2 3. Title IIC - Disadvantaged Youth - this program assists eligible youth ages 16 - 21, in a year-round program in assessing and identifying barriers to their employment. The I~ participants are provided JTPA program options to overcome these barriers. 4. Title III - Dislocated Workers - this program assists eligible individuals, age 16 and older, who have bsen terminated from their job through no fault of their own. The typical situation is due to an employer's facility closing or as a result of a substantial layoff. This is a year-round program in assessing and identifying barriers to employment and provides JTPA program options to overcome these barriers. All Title II and III programs have specific eligibility criteria shown in Attachment I. Generally, an eligible individual is economically disadvantaged but may also qualify because of being a welfare recipient, having a disability that restricts work, etc. The Private Industry Council (PIC) oversees the administration of these programs in a 14 county service delivery area (SDA), and has designated the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) (excluding Dallas and Tarrant counties) as the administrative entity. Denton's programs are implemented by the North Texas Education and Training Co-op, Inc. (NTETC) under contract with the Council of Governments and approved by the Private Industry Council. Mr. Lloyd Webb is the Executive Director of NTETC. In the 1995 program, the employers in the community as a whole placed approximately 94 students with 23 different sponsoring employers. These placements represented an estimated dollar value of approximately $133,980. And, as shown below, the program only ran for 10 weeks versus a usual 14 weeks. Attachment II is a report provided by Mr. Webb on the Summer Youth program for 1993 - 1995. This report provides an overview of the program's goal, benefits, eligibility, how employability is enhanced, and the financial impact. The City of Denton (local government) has continued to play a key role in sponsoring youth in this program and has been a major work site and provider. i X2 z Al" No f~z 1_ 9 Agenda 111m February 23, 1996 CM Report to City Council - JTPA Program Page 3 Over the past three years, the City of Denton has benefited from the JTPA program as follows: Year Approximate Estimated (Summer) Number of Cost* Students 1995** 40 $ 90,480 1994 50 147,100 1993 31 91,202 Based on $4.25/hr @ 40 hrs/wk plus a $562/student administrative costs Program funding delayed 2 weeks at start and ended 2 weeks early at end. Attachment in shows the placements in departments and divisions within the City of Denton. The City of Denton has also employed a number of students on a part-time basis under the IIC - Disadvantaged Youth section of the JTPA These employees (temporary) are paid by JTPA, but have provided essential work like answering telephones, filing, copying, and other important clerical functions. Without funding for these positions, some departments have been unable to keep filing up to date or other work has fallen behind because regular employees have had to accomplish these essential duties. But, beyond the numbers and dollars that we, as a community and city, benefit, what are benefits to students? Every student that participates in this program is "at risk". That means they can only participate if they meet the eligibility criteria. Almost always, the students come from a low income family. They may come from single parer households. Thus, this program provides an opportunity for the student to begin the process of "breaking out" of their economically disadvantaged status. Without the JTPA involvement, most of these students would not be supervised during the summer months. They, thus, may fall into patterns of adverse behavior or, they may he exposed to adverse behaviors. Involvement in JTPA helps them learn to appreciate the expectations of a work atmosphere - interviewing for a job, coming to work (regularly and on time), learning to file, developing telephone skills, learning copying work, etc. They are able to complete work assignments and develop the knowledge and skills S V , Agend+ No. AQends lum ore .4 -,g:: February 23, 1996 CM Report to City Council - JTPA Program Page 4 needed to perform many different types of work. These are some of the benefits for a student assigned in an office environment. Others may be assigned in outdoor work activities, such as the parks, streets, or other labor positions. In these work situations, there are similar learnings (regular, on-time ' attendance, etc.) but the student learns and develop other, equally important skills (small engine maintenance, litter control, housekeeping, working with children, etc.) In addition, the students learn responsibility, customer service skills, and social norms outside the school environment. Some students have obtained employment with the agency after they participated in the JTPA program. What are benefits to employers? Of course we, as an employer, gain free labor to work on special projects or to catch up on work or projects that may be behind. Some departments have relied on the JTPA program to accomplish essential work functions. But, importantly, there is an opportunity to help our community for the long-term. An employer who participates in the JTPA program is helping to develop our leaders of tomorrow! PROGRAM. DEPARTMENTS OO GROUPS AFFECTED: Students in the JTPA program have been placed in most City departments. Some departments have used JTPA's year-round to staff filing operations, assist with telephone and receptionist duties, and other essential day-to-day operations. FISCAL IMPACT: The estimated costs of the JTPA program have been shown above. It is important to note that some City departments will go without staff to cover important functions if this program is not funded or provisions made to restore the staffing provided by the void created by non-government funding. For the City of Denton to replace these positions with regular full-time or part-time employees is estimated to cost us $136,615 for the 1995/96 Budget year. SOCIAL IMPACT ANR CONCERN WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. The fiscal impact for the City and community has been felt in the current budget year. If funding is not forthcoming, it will have an adverse impact in next year's budget. However, an even more important consequence is the social impact within the community if the JTPA program is not continued. Youth, especially the 14 -15 year olds, will not have the opportunity to receive the work ethics and work values experiences offered through the JTPA I =1;O&2 February 239 1996 CM Report to City Council - JTPA Program Page 5 programs. Pre-employment training provides a foundation for the youth to better understand what is expected of them on the job, the reasons time and attendance is important, time and money management, how to get a job on their own, and the overall importotnt7a of work responsibilities.- it is very herd to predict whether these consequences will actually occur and at what level. But, without the JTPA programs to assist youth, there are clearly some very potential social concerns for our community. Respectfully submitted: .

Benefits Benefits of the Summer Youth Program are two fold. First, the youth benefits in several ways: * Earn money and feel like they are contributing to the workplace effort, society, family and most of all themselves. * Gain work experience for the future * Learn about different occupations and explore those in which they are interested * Gain knowledge from their supervisor/mentor regarding work ethic, proper behavior and job skills * Understand the benefits of remaining in school and develop long range goals. * Build self-esteem and sense of responsibility Second, the job site and community benefits in several ways: * Free labor * Opportunity to impact a youth as a mentor and a teacher * Youth become productive part of society now and influence the productivity in the future. H. Eligibility JTPA eligibility is very complex and cannot be summarized in one paragraph. However, basic eligibility is based upon income level and family size for the previous 6 months from application date. Some indicators of qualification are: Food Stamp or AFDC recipient Disability Status Receiving SSI Foster Child 111. Enhance Employability A. SCANS Skills These skills were developed by the Secretaries Commission o'Achieving Necessary Skills. These are basic skills that all employers want entry level employees to have. See Attachment Agenda fJO. ~m Agenda Item B. Pre-Employment Data 1P This is a twenty (20) hour class that all students go through before they are eligible to work for the program and includes basicjob readiness skills. This curriculum includes: Introduction to SCANS Work Values and Ethics Job Seeking Applications Resume Interviews Self-Esteem Cultural Diversity Sexual Harassment Decision Making Time Management Money Management C. Job Site Placement After students have completed Pre-Employment they are eligible to pick a job site that corresponds with their interests. The student makes the choice and the commitment to the job site based on the job description pages that job sites have turned in previously. The students earn $4,25 per hour and can work a maximum of 40 hours per week. The students are also covered under Worker's Compensation Insurance which is part of the Participant Cost paid by tha program. D. Job Specific Skills Certificates (JSS) Students also have the option of receiving a 1SS that correspond; to their job title. These certificates are issued by the Department of Commerce and can he used as part of a portfolio when seeking employment. After 30 hours the student become eligible to receive a certificate and must receive an evaluation of 80% or better on the skills required. Each certificate has different skills as required by industry and job descriptions. E. Tools In preparation of future employment, our staff assisted students in creating both a functional and chronological resumes. Portfolios were also established for the students including these tools and any recommendations that the job site supervisors %NTOte for the student. See attached portfolio. IV. Program and Financial Impact A. Youth Served The city of Denton, meaning all those that worked within the city, limits, provided placements for 94 youth in 1995. This number was down from previous years due to the decrease in federal funding. The city of Denton provided placements for 160 youth in 1994. a r~ Figures from the 1993 year was not available; however based on perce in the city of Denton would be 146. B. Costs The estimated costs for the program operated in the city of Denton during the past three years are: Program Year Participant Cost Operational Cost Total 1995 $88,810 $45,170 $133,980 1994 $185,815 $43,872 $229,687 1993 $179,600 $56,580 $236,180 s t t SCANS INVENTORY MQa Fla, QD EAVA13 SCANS FOUNDATION SKILLS Basic Skills Reading • Writing • Arithmetic • Mathematics • Listening • Speaking Thinking Skills Creative Thinking • Decision Making • Problem Solving • Seeing Things in the Mint's Eye • Knowing How to Learn • Reasoning Personal Qualities Responsbility • Self•Esieem • Social • Self-Management • Integrhy/Honesty CONNECTWO SCANS TO THE REAL WORLD April 18-19, *95--Aus1in, 'texas I-18 r SCANS INVENTORY Aaende No. ~O ~ O© Agenda rtes S SCANS ComPETENGES Resources Allocates Time l Allocates Money ` Allocates Material and Facility Resources • Allocates Human Resources Information Acquires and Evaluates Information • Organizes and Maintains Information • Interprets and Communicates Information • Uses Computers to Process Information Interpersonal Participates as a Member of a Team • Teaches Others • Serves Clients/Customers • Exercises Leadership • Negotiates to Arrive at a Decision • Works with Cultural Diversity Systems Understands Systems • Monitors and Corrects Performance • Improves and Designs Systems Technology Selects Technology • Applies Technology to Task • Maintains and Troubteshools Technology CONNECTING SCANS TOME REAL WORLD April 18-19, 1995-Austin, Texas 1.17 SCANS INVENTORY ~panCa No. DEF1iV1TMVS OF THE SCANS FOUNDATI iy§KILLS" -'S -Z7-- BASIC SKILLS Reading.
