SUBJECT
Receive a report, hold a discussion and give staff direction on the Texas Transportation
Enhancement 2012 Call for Proj ects, and make a recommendation for proj ect submittal.
BACKGROUND
In early October, the City received information that TxDOT would be holding a meeting to
present information on their call for proj ects for the Transportation Enhancement Program. The
meeting was held October 22, 2012 at the North Texas Council of Governments (NTCOG)
offices. The deadline for submittal of projects is November 16, 2012. There are 12 federal
categories in this call for proj ects and they will grant a maj ority of the funds to Category 1:
Provision of Facilities for Pedestrian and Bicycles (approximately 50%).
To be eligible for consideration, all proj ects must demonstrate a relationship to the surface
transportation system and incorporate at least one of the following 12 categories:
• Category 1: Provision of Facilities for Pedestrians and Bicycles
• Category 2: Provision of Safety and Education Activities for Pedestrians and Bicycles
• Category 3: Acquisition of Scenic Easements and Scenic or Historic Properties
• Category 4: Scenic or Historic Highway Programs (including the provision of tourist and
welcome center facilities)
• Category 5: Landscaping or Other Beautification
• Category 6: Historic Preservation
• Category 7: Rehabilitation and Operation of Historic Transportation Buildings,
Stnictures, or Facilities, including Historic Railroad Facilities and Canals
• Category 8: Preservation of Abandoned Railway Corridors, including Conversion and
Use for Pedestrians and Bicycle Trails
• Category 9: Control and Removal of Outdoor Advertising
• Category 10: Archaeological Planning and Research
• Category 11: Environmental mitigation to address water pollution due to highway ninoff
and to reduce vehicle-caused wildlife mortality while maintaining habitat
connectivity
• Category 12: Establishment of Transportation Museums
Eighty percent of the constniction costs are reimbursable and the City's share of the project must
be cash, not in-lcind services. The City must have the ability to make contractor payments during
constniction. Engineering and ROW acquisition are not reimbursable on Category 1 projects.
Projects with a greater than 20% match will be ranlced higher in the selection process. TxDOT
will be ranlcing projects higher if engineering and ROW acquisitions are complete. Projects must
be completed in four years.
Staff has examined the current list of projects that nught be potential candidates for this program.
We have one proj ect that fits the criteria and has completed enough engineering that it should
qualify. This proj ect, the Evers Parlc Bridge and Trail Proj ect, would connect Evers Parlc, Evers
Parlc Elementary School, Stricldand Middle School, and North Branch Library to the McKamy
Evers Estate and North Point subdivisions to the north. Currently, there is no direct linlcage of
those areas without traveling along FM 2164 (Locust Street) to the east, connecting these
neighborhoods, schools, and parlc facilities with a bilce and pedestrian trail.
This project would also extend the hard surface trail north to the LTNT Discovery Center and
North Lalces Parlc, and south to connect with the planned bicycle lanes on Windsor and Hinlde
Streets and the existing Cooper Creelc Trail.
The engineering for this bridge is complete and the Parlcs Department has funding for the bridge
in the amount of $200,000.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends submitting this project for consideration.
FISCAL INFORMATION
Because of the short turnaround time for this grant application, staff is still developing project
costs. These project costs will be presented to Council at the meeting. At this point in the cost
development, it appears that the project will be in the $1.25 million range.

SUBJECT — DCA12-0005 — Phccse II Gccs Well Drilling ccnd Production Ordinccnce R��isions
Receive a report, hold a discussion, and give staff direction regarding the Phase II amendments
of the City's Gas Well Ordinance.
BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2012, staff updated City Council regarding the progress of the Phase II Gas
Well Drilling and Production ordinance amendments. During the work session, City Council
requested that staff provide additional information. The municipal comparison table, Exhibit 1,
was revised to include both Denton's current ordinance provisions and the provisions proposed
in the second ordinance draft. Another comparison table, Exhibit 2, was created to compare
items presented in the Drilling Advisory Group (DAG) Report and the Minority Report however,
this exhibit only contains specific provisions that are comparable from municipality to
municipality and does not include intangible concepts or stipulation that cannot be codified.
Concerns identified in both the DAG and Minority Reports are included in the table only one
time. In addition, items previously presented in the municipal comparison table or Taslc Force
Action Item voting results are not duplicated in Exhibit 2.
OPTIONS
The purpose of this meeting is to seek City Council's direction on further revisions to the Phase
II draft ordinance. The previous versions of the draft include stipulations that may require
further examination or additional edits based on City Council's recommendations to staff.
Options include:
1. Adding citizen items to the ordinance that were not previously included based on Taslc
Force or consultant recommendations;
2. Strilcing langtiage from the draft ordinance that may pose a rislc to the City if enforced
due to preemption concerns or other legal opinions;
3. Including stipulations currently written into regulations codified by another municipality;
and
4. Responding to citizen inquiries regarding the process to include or eliminate specific
language.
RECOMMENDATION
City staff recommends a discussion of the draft ordinance to specifically identify which items
proposed in the draft ordinance should remain.

Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas to declare the intent to reimburse
expenditures from the Unreserved Fund Balance of the General Fund with Certificates of
Obligation with an aggregate maximum principal amount not to exceed $200,000 to allow for
architectural services and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ("LEED")
certification of the Linda McNatt Animal Care and Adoption Center Facility, and providing an
effective date.
BACKGROUND
The FY 2012-13 Capital Improvement Program Budget includes provisions for the design and
constniction of the Linda McNatt Animal Care and Adoption Center facility. The design and
constniction of the facility will be funded with Certificates of Obligation, which are sold in
conjunction with a Capital Improvement Program bond sale. The City of Denton's next Capital
Improvement Program bond sale is scheduled to occur in April 2013. Staff would lilce to
proceed with the design of the facility prior to the sale of the Certificates of Obligation. To
accomplish this, staff is recommending that these expenses be paid out of the Unreserved Fund
Balance of the General Fund. With the approval of the ordinance, these funds will be reimbursed
once the Certificates of Obligation are sold.
The City Council will also consider approval of an amendment to the architect contract for the
Animal Services Building for LEED certification of this facility on November 13, 2012. While
the design contract to be considered is approximately $138,000, staff is recommending a
reimbursement ordinance in an amount up to $200,000, in order to provide flexibility for
potential change orders.

AGENDA DATE: November 13, 2012

SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas amending a Professional
Services Agreement (PSA) with Connolly Architects and Consultants for Design Services and
Constniction Oversight for the Linda McNatt Animal Care and Adoption Facility entered into on
January 10, 2012; and providing for an effective date.
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this agenda item is to seek City Council direction to approve an amendment to
the architectural contract related to the design of the new Linda McNatt Animal Care and
Adoption facility. The current facility constniction documents incorporate sustainability features,
but the building was not specifically designed to obtain a particular Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) certification. The original vision of the facility in the 2008
Master Plan was to seelc Gold LEED certification. However, as the project moved forward, it
became apparent that the size and cost of the original plan, combined with the national economic
downturn, exceeded the funding capacity of both the City of Denton and the Denton Animal
Shelter Foundation. Along with a reduction in size, the decision was made to save additional
funds by utilizing sustainability features where practical, but to not seek independent
certification to achieve a particular LEED level. In essence, the focus was to include
sustainability elements as much as possible without talcing funding away from animal habitats or
reducing the capacity for housing and caring for animals.
Recognizing that LEED certification is an important element to the City Council, staff has
reviewed the incorporation of planned sustainability features and their potential to qualify the
project for LEED certification. The McNatt constniction documents have been completed, and
currently include approximately thirty (30) LEED points. Research conducted by Environmental
Services staff has identified approximately 7 points that could lilcely be achieved with minimal
additional costs. The threshold for Bronze LEED Certification is forty (40) points. The architect
estimates that additional LEED points can be achieved through minimal changes to the drawings,
comprehensive changes to the General Requirements and Specifications of the constniction
contract, and the necessary LEED consultant project management. The addition of LEED
Certification to the McNatt project is estimated to require a delay of approximately two months
for design elements and constniction.
Following review of the current design elements as they relate to LEED certification, staff
discussed this issue with the Committee on the Environment (COE) at their November 5, 2012
meeting. The COE voted to recommend the pursuit of LEED Certification (3-0). The attached
ordinance amends the current design contract with Connelly Architects and Consultants to
incorporate LEED certification for the project. Attachment A provides the full scope of services
for LEED Certification of the McNatt facility, including architectural design changes, the use of
a LEED Consultant, and a LEED Commissioning Agent.
OPTIONS
1. Council can approve the ordinance to amend the architect contract to seelc LEED
certification as proposed by the Committee on the Environment.
2. Council can rej ect the ordinance, not seek LEED certification, and direct staff to proceed
to the constniction phase using the current design with planned sustainable feat�ires.

O1/10/12 - Council Meeting on Professional Services Agreement with Connolly Architects.
11/OS/12 - Council Committee on the Environment Meeting on LEED Certification.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of LEED Certification is $109,000 in additional fees and $28,848 in
reimbursable expenses, for a total cost of $137,848. This will provide for the additional
architectural design work and the inclusion of a LEED Consultant, and a LEED Commissioning
Agent. Any additional costs for constniction will be determined after the receipt of bids for the
General Contractor for the project. The cost for LEED Certification can be covered by the
funding previously identified for the McNatt facility. Staff has prepared a reimbursement
ordinance for consideration should Council decide to pursue the LEED Certification. Upon
completion of design and the advancement of the proj ect, staff will solicit constniction bids.
Upon receipt of bids, staff will have a more definite constniction estimate and will plan to brief
the City Council on the total proj ect estimate along with the available budget at that time.
