Campbell, City Manager SUBJECT: 2014Salary Survey Results Attached is a summary report from the wage and salary survey that was conducted by T. R. Edgar and Associates in June/July of 2014. Please note that the attached report does not reflect market data for our electric positions. We have partnered with the cities of Garland and Bryan to have a wage and salary survey conducted specific to the Electric industry. Those results should be reported to us by the end of September 2014. The City contracted with T.R. Edgar and Associates in 2006 to implement a new compensation plan for Denton Municipal Electric and in 2007 for the remainder of the organization (except Police and Fire). With the implementation of the new compensation plan, which was effective October 1, 2007, one of our objectives was to ensure that wages/salaries remained competitive when compared with the appropriate external labor market. To that end, we periodically conduct to determine the average pay (. Benchmark jobs are jobs that share some commonality across organizations, such as a Heavy Equipment Operator or an Accountant. Benchmark organizations share some commonality as well. Factors used to identify benchmark organizations include similar positions, competition for jobs, location/proximity, services provided, and size. We have focused on more of the cities within the DFW metroplex area, major employers in Denton, and other organizations specific to the Water, Wastewater, and Solid Waste industry. A lisiting of the organizations that responded is included on page 5 of the report. www.cityofdenton.com ADA/EOE/ADEA 8/29/14 H:\COMP\Annual Comp Proposal Budget Info\FY14-15\Memo to CC re comp survey results.doc Compensation Survey Page 2 of 3 There are some anolomies that need to be reviewed further; however, the report reflects that our salaries for the benchmark positions surveyed are competitive overall. When reviewing the report, though, there are a few things that should be considered: While the consultant tries to review the information reported and follow up on any questions or outliers, wage/salary survey data is only as good as the person completing the survey. The consultant included a summary of job responsibilities and minimum qualifications for each position included in the survey; however, one common pitfall of salary surveys is that respondents may match a job based on title alone. Wage and salary survey information is dynamic. Information can change rapidly with many variables affecting the data both in our organization and the survey organizations. Such variables include, but are not limited to, turnover, compensation practices when making new hire pay decisions, reclassification of positions, pay increases, etc. We attempt to survey comparable organizations, but cities in the region. As you know, because of the diversity of services offered by Denton, there are more demands placed on our City employees. For example, one anomoly reported (paid in excess of the market) is our Customer Services Manager. Most of the organizations surveyed do not have an Electric Utility operation which greatly impacts the services provided by our Customer Service Department and subsequently affects the knowledge, skills, and abilities needed by our Customer Service Manager. Survey data provides an EXTERNAL perspective only and can not help determine the INTERNAL equity of our positions (how one position relates to another). Since no two organizations are exactly alike -- in terms of their size, their organizational hierarchy, their culture, their pay philosophy, their pricing structure etc. -- this data should only be used as a gauge to help determine the value of our positions. Based on the survey results, we are not recommending increasing the wage and salary ranges of our pay plan. However, part of our compensation philosophy states: Because we strive to hire and retain quality staff, we believe it necessary - and appropriate - to compensate employees at the midpoint when compared with other employees possessing similar skills and qualifications in the labor market. In support of that philosophy, the FY 14/15 proposed budget includes equity adjustments for their pay range, assuming acceptable performance. Employees who have been employed longer than a year but less than five years on their performance review date and whose pay falls below the midpoint would be eligible for a 1% increase. Employees who have been employed five years or longer on their performance review date and whose pay falls below the midpoint would be eligible for a 2% increase. Although we have made some progress since implementing equity adjustments in FY 11/12, we still have approximately 50% of our workforce below the midpoint for their pay range. www.cityofdenton.com ADA/EOE/ADEA 8/29/14 H:\COMP\Annual Comp Proposal Budget Info\FY14-15\Memo to CC re comp survey results.doc Compensation Survey Page 3 of 3 Another important component of our compensation plan is recognizing and rewarding employees for their individual contributions to the goals of the City. Therefore, the FY 14/15 proposed budget also includes an average merit increase of 3% for non-civil service employees. This percentage increase is consistent with what we are seeing with other organizations (based on HR literature, survey results from other cities, and T.R. Edgars survey results (reference page 9 of the report)). As you know, our employees are truly our greatest resource. The Strategic Plan we have adopted, and the pay philosophy we have implemented reflects this sentiment. I am confident that the compensation adjustments proposed in the FY 2014-will continue to support our employees and these initiatives. If you have any questions, or need any additional information, please let me know.

Employers were selected by the City based on the type of positions they had and their geographic location. 90 positions were surveyed, each of which was described briefly to facilitate job matching. Positions covered most all of the major City functions; General Fund, Solid Waste, and Water/WasteWater. No positions within the Electric Utility were specifically identified for inclusion in the survey. Questionnaires were sent out in mid-May to gather information about each participants type and size, benefits, and wage/salary rates and practices. The results of all the data collected from 26 separate organizations, including the City of Denton, have been tabulated and are represented on the following In order, you will find the results of the General Employer Infoefits, and, finally, the Wages/Salaries matched to each of the 90 positions surveyed.

Clearly, the results were substantially influenc their (collective) compensation and benefit policies and practices. Approximately 15% of the respondents were from Water facilities. The remaining respondents (4) were from two industry segmentsand provide no individual statistical significance. Question 2:Determining the size and scope of an employers operation is an consideration in determining the comparability of the wage/salarefits information reported. For Municipalities, Operating Budget is generally a go served. Regardless of the relevant measure for a specific organi reflect that respondents are fairly large the average number ofemployees is 1,728, the average operating budget is close to $400M, and average customer Question 3: All but 3 of the employers responding to this question indicated that they formal compensation program. With total rewards representing such a significant component of employers operating expenses and with the need to attract, r employees, it should surprise no one that almost all companies hof a structured approach to compensation. Question 4: All but 3 of the employers responding to this question formally budget the wage/salary increases. This is consistent with the responses to Question 5: Average wage/salary increases for both exempt/nonexempt employeeere reported at 3% per annum. Projections for 2015 are the same. This result is consistent with the national average across all industries. Since emerging from the economic crisis in 2008, companies have been very conservative in granting raises. In each of the past 5years, average increases have risen slightly from a low of 2.4% to 2.9% in the last couple of years. Employers appear confident enough now to budget 3% for 2015. Question 6: 10 (47.6%) of the 21 respondents to this question offer any additional form of cash compensation such as a bonus, an incentive payment, profit something comparable. Since additional forms of cash compensation are rare in Municipalities (at least in my experience), I find the number of employers doing more thabase salary somewhat surprising. Perhaps, the push by compensation professionals to a catching on. 4 WAGE/$ALARY and BENEFITS SURVEY General Information Questionnaire Results Q1.

The remainder have slightly different procedures but almost ever enrolls eligible employees within 60 days of their hire. The least offered insurance coverages are Extended Care (other than Hospice), Dental, and Vision Care. With respect to the latter two benefits, it seems that some employers offer the coverage but require employees to pay for it. That lea some respondents said no but only because they (the employer) premium. The majority of employers are self-insuring their health benefits, obviously hoping to take advantage of cash flow and reasonable claims experience. Only 4 respondents indicated that they are using a commercial insurance carrier. Th of Plan is a PPO. Within the private sector, there is a definitely a trend towards HDHP with an HSA. The overwhelming majority of employers pay between 65% 99% of the total health insurance premium, with the largest group between 80%-99%. There were 5 respondents who indicated that they pay 100%of the health insurance premium very unusual in todays economic climate. Employers have various-sharing arrangements depending upon the level of coverage, e.g. employee, employee pl spouse, family. The majority of employers (85%) have a family deductible exceeding $1,000/year. The average maximum out-of-pocket expenses exceed $1,000/year for all employers. Increasing this dollar amount will likely continue its recent tr 70% of the respondents to this question stated that their average cost/employee for health insurance exceeded $5,000/year. Several studies indicate of health care for an employee is closer to $10,000, in spite of attempts to pass on more of the costs to employees. To help defray increased employer costs, companies are considering shifting more of the premium payments to employees - a trend that has been on-going for many years in most industries. The question is how much more of health care on to employees. This practice cannot go on forever without some serious negative consequences. No one reported, however, considering reducing benefits. So, unl 9 WAGE/$ALARY and BENEFITS SURVEY the cost of health care in general goes down (highly unlikely), pays will likely continue. Responses to Health Insurance Premium increases varied considerably. In 2013, employers stated that they received no rate increase, 9 employer premium increase between 5-9.9%, and 4 employers experienced premium increases over 15%. In 2014, there were even more employers (9) who received no premium increase while 8 received an increase between 5-9.9%. There were 2 employers whose premiums increased by more than 15%. In 2015, all employers are premium increase with the majority expecting between 5-9.9%. Employers are still trying to quantify the impact of ACA on health care costs and th going in to 2015. B.Disability and Life Insurance Only 7 of 24 employers provide a company-paid short-term disability insurance benefit. Of those who do offer this benefit, it represents an average of o their weekly income. My assumption about the remaining employers a generous sick leave program with, in a few cases, no maximum a being the case, employees who would otherwise have to rely on insurance coverage and a reduction in their weekly income, can tap into their sick leave account (assuming they have any) and receive full pay until they become eligible f 75% of employers offer a company-paid long-term disability benefit with 76% offering it through an insurance company (as opposed to being self-insured). The majority of employers offer a LTD benefit of $5,000-$6,999/month (60% of the employees monthly salary). Since this level of benefit has not changed in many years, it would appear that employers are not looking to correlate the level of increases in base pay. All employers offer a company-paid life insurance benefit; most offer it as a multiple of salary (various). The most common life insurance maximum benefit is $100,000 + with AD&D included. C.Paid Time Off 43% of the employers responding provide 9 holidays per year. 35% offer 10 or more holidays. The national average is around 9, but this is a benefis really industry dependent, e.g., the Federal government offers 10 holidays per year. Almost all employers offer a sick leave benefit. The majority of employers offer a benefit between 10-12 days per year; 25% of employers accrue in excess of 12 days per year. With respect to the total number of hours that can be accrued, 33% allow over 200 hours with 57% providing no limit. 10 WAGE/$ALARY and BENEFITS SURVEY The overwhelming majority of employers permit employees to earn vacation within the first 6 months of their employment, 2 weeks after 1 year of service, 3 weeks after 5 years of service, and 4 weeks after 15 rs of service. Eleven employers offer vacation accrual of 5 weeks; 4 require between 16-20 years of service and 4 require over 20 years of service.The majority of the employers responses indicated that they allowed employees to accrue in excess of 240. Employers offered a variety of answers in response to the question of how carried over from year to year. It could be that employers are using accrued vacation as another form of cash compensation (which it is). In Californi vacation to be treated as part of the compensation package. Accr can get very expensive; the cost of the hours increases with every pay raise. Many employees consider it their primary savings account. Employers n about the benefit design and how it is being used. For most empl NOT intended to be a savings account. D.Retirement The majority of employers responding to this survey have a defined benefit retirement plan. The overwhelming majority of employers share the contributions o retirement plan with employees. In TMRS, employers generally con employees compensation and the employee contributes an additional 7%. Most of the employers responding to the survey also have a defin retirement plan IN ADDITION TO the defined benefit plan. In this employers frequently require the employee to make 100% of the contributions. In the private sector, most employers have a 401(k) or 403(b) type reti average employer match is 50% of the first 6% of the employee this with the response above and you can readily see the tremendous difference and how attractive this component of the benefit plan is in attracti employees. Only one employer indicated that they have a mandatory retirement age, 60-64. 11 WAGE/$ALARY and BENEFITS SURVEY E.Cost We received 21 (out of 26) responses to this question. 28% of those report that their benefit costs were under 30% of total payroll. Of the remaining 72%, there was a variety of responses ranging from 30%to over 40%, with the majority falling into the 30%-34.9% range. The variance in the data reflects many things, some due to what is counted and some due to how it is counted. I have always been su of a standard for this type of calculation. In any event, benefi investment by employers and it should be advertised and quantified to all employees. Further, almost all of this money is tax free/deferred to employ more valuable. 12 WAGE/$ALARY and BENEFITS SURVEY Benefits Questionnaire Results A. HEALTH INSURANCE QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS H1.

If you believe that your position should be classified differently than we have reported it, then you should conduct a ensure that the position meets/does not meet one of the 5 exemption tests. The survey covered 90 different positions and we received data f representing 7,688 employees. In a few instances, the averages reported by some employers were (higher/lower) with those from other respondents. We exercised our judgment to include/exclude that data to ensure the most statistically relia The survey included some positions with multiple levels e.g. Eng Engineer, Assistant Court Representative. The responses suggested that the concept was not well understood and/or it is used in many and va company. The difference in levels is not meant to be a time in there are supposed to be clear, measurable differences in responsibi authority from one level to the next with a high correlation to the pay for the position. We had to make some adjustments in the job matching to ensure that what we know are the clear differences in pay that correlate to these In looking at the data for the positions Recreation Program Coor Specialist, there appears to be an anomaly. The Recreation Specientry level exempt position while the Program Coordinator is a high The compensation data reported provided the opposite result. Tha Coordinator is the higher paid of the 2 positions and eligible ft is entirely possible that these 2 positions do much the same thing and that not have both. Please look at the results carefully and go back descriptors for each position to make sure that your matches werte. Also, with respect to the positions of Assistant Court Represent not reflect much separation in average pay. Perhaps your organization only has one level and you had to choose between the two. Please go back and read tbrief position 27 WAGE/$ALARY and BENEFITS SURVEY descriptors to make sure that you have slotted your position cor will have practical significance for you. Responses to the questions on supplemental pay varied widely. Th that there is no standardpractice among most employers. For employees in positions considered nonexempt, respondents a paying them for working on Sundays. There were a few employers w selected exempt positions for work required on Sundays, as welmost common response to what the extra pay is was 1½ times the employ hourly rate. Of course, if the hours worked on Sunday pushed the 40 hour per week limit, then (for employees in nonexempt positio obligated to pay the employee at the premium rate. There were no unusual responses to this question. Most employers reported paying something extra for employees req ndrd or 3 shift. Shift differentials have been a standard for many years. 2 however, rather than paying employees a set percentage of the base ndrd the 2 or 3 shift, many employers are choosing to add 50-75 cents per hour to their base pay. On call pay for selected positions in Utilities, e.g. Linemen,tion Technology, e.g. Network Administrators, is standard but how on and how it is compensated varies widely. There were few response and defining a norm is difficult. Some employers stated that they paid $13/day. Others pay for a minimum number of hours for being on call plus a guaranteed number of hours if called in to work. The majority of employers pay employees for having to work on a practices ranged from paying the employees regular hourly rate to paying 2 times the regular hourly rate or granting an alternate holiday. As with all surveys, the output is only as good as the input. Th among the employers responding to this survey varied widely. Fur questionnaires were completed by different people. And, as with a can be very misleading. Just because a title in the survey match positions, do not assume that it was a good match. Exercise cauting the results of this survey as your sole basis of comparison. The more data poin better the results. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION!! 28 Exhibit 7 P.O.

The presentation was made by Brent Heath, Exec Mgr of Energy Delivery; Jerry Fielder, Engineering Division Mgr; Rowdy Patterson, Line Superintendent and Brad Watts, Line Superintendent. Heath started by saying at the last PUB Meeting there was an item for Barco, a contract that was to bridge a gap for some underground electric services. DME and purchasing worked close together to expedite a new RFP that opened on August 4, 2014. That has been evaluated and also received a Best and Final Offer (BAFO). Fielder started the update on the underground projects that are current and upcoming. DME has 766 miles of electric distribution circuit with 326 miles of overhead and 440 miles of underground. DME is comprised of 57.4 percent underground. Patterson stated that DME has utilized an underground contractor since Feb. 2000. Staff is able Gallivan asked what contractor was previously to use a contractor for a lot of the civil work. used . Patterson answered Willbros is currently under contract and before that it was Tasco and before that Barco. Barco started working for DME in Feb. 2000. They worked until 2008 under contract. Patterson showed a breakdown of the last three years and how much the contractors have been utilized. In 2011 the contractor performed about 26 percent of all DME distribution construction projects totaling $517,624. In 2012, 30 percent of all DME distribution construction projects totaling $443,503. In 2013, 41 percent including underground rehabs and EXHIBIT 2 Draft Minutes of the Public Utilities Board Meeting August 25, 2014 Page 2 of 2 substations with a total of $855,515. Year to date in 2014 contractors will take care of about 50 percent of all DME projects totaling $894,869. Fielder then showed a list of DME underground projects. There are 60 total projects. Fielder stated DME had a meeting with Peterbilt. Peterbilt was interested in the cost of moving the transmission and distribution lines. This is a $5 million reimbursable project, which is two miles long. and Rayzor Ranch Apartments. The major loops are currently under design. TxDOT is widening I-35 through the City of Denton and there are several locations along that route that lines have to be relocated. Those will have some re-imbursement. FM2499 has some fairly large underground installations that will happen. Again there will be reimbursements. Watts stated that Phase 1 in Southridge is 100 percent complete. Customers are happy and like the way the work was completed. Jimmy Ward is the Contract Coordinator that oversees this project and has done a great job. Phase 2 is about 90-95 percent complete. There are a total of 41 transformers and 35 have been changed out. Phase 3 will be the largest and most challenging. There are about 75 transformers to be changed out. It is the older part of Southridge and the yards are more challenging. DME is utilizing a boring contractor to help with the transitions. In Phase 1 and Phase 2 the landscaper was not used very much at all, the work was completed without much disruption. The work is being completed by a contractor with a DME Contract Coordinator overseeing the project. The project is moving along well. Fielder stated there are other subdivisions that have underground cable at its life expectancy. These areas are on a reliability watch, there are 31 subdivisions. There are underground contractors in place so if these areas start having concerns they can be addressed. Smith asked who will reimburse on the Peterbilt project . Fielder answered it would be Peterbilt. .

In such event, the Contractor shallpay to the City upon demand the increased cost, if any, incurred by the City to procure such services from another source. ACCEPTANCE OF INCOMPLETE OR NON-CONFORMING DELIVERABLES 11.: If, instead of requiring immediate correction or removal and replacement of defective or non- conforming deliverables, the City prefers to accept it, the City may do so.

DELAYS 18.: A. The City may delay scheduled delivery or other due dates by written notice to the Contractor if the City deems it is in its best interest. If such delay causes an increase in the cost of the work under the Contract, the City and the Contractor shall negotiate an equitable adjustment for costs incurred by the Contractor in the Contract price and execute an amendment to the Contract. The Contractor must assert its right to an adjustment within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of the notice of delay. Failure to agree on any adjusted price shall be handled under the Dispute Resolution process specified in paragraph 49. However, nothing in this provision shall excuse the Contractor from delaying the delivery as notified. B. Neither party shall be liable for any default or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Contract if, while and to the extent such default or delay is caused by acts of God, fire, riots, civil commotion, labor disruptions, sabotage, sovereign conduct, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of such Party. In the event of default or delay in contract performance due to any of the foregoing causes, then the time for completion of the services will be extended; provided, however, in such an event, a conference will be held within three (3) business days to establish a mutually agreeable period of time reasonably necessary to overcome the effect of such failure to perform.

Present: Chairman Dick Smith, Vice Chair Billy Cheek, Secretary Randy Robinson, Phil Gallivan and Barbara Russell Ex Officio Members: Howard Martin, ACM Utilities Absent: George Campbell City Manager and Lilia Bynum OPEN MEETING: CONSENT AGENDA: 2.Consider recommendation of an ordinance accepting competitive proposals and awarding a contract for a prepaid utilities solution, providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective date (RFP 5346 awarded to Exceleron Software, LLC in the three (3) year not-to-exceed amount of $1,100,000). Item 2 was pulled by Board Member Gallivan. Gallivan asked about the recovery of this capital investment and the number of customers . Phil Williams, DME General Manger, answered there are 48,000 electric customers. Ethan Cox, Customer Service Manager, stated that what they did in terms of assumptions for cost was to ramp up to the end of year three to having about 7,000 customers in the program. That breaks out to about 10-15 percent of the -4,000. This vendor has seen about 10-12 percent sign up from residential customers, this is not offered to commercial customers. Gallivan asked what is the annual maintenance on this program . Cox answered the City actually pays per subscriber. All the maintenance cost and license fee is included in the per subscriber cost which is $6 per prepaid subscriber. The City has to have at least 500 subscribers; there is a minimum of $3,000 per month to be paid. Martin asked Cox to talk a little about the soft cost this will help with. Cox stated that at the onset this program will be a little labor intensive to get customers set up. After that there should be fewer phone calls from customers. This is designed for the customers to be more empowered and know their usage daily. Cox has heard from other utilities that their interactions with customers go down and the span of the interactions are shorter. Customers are more conscience of how they are using their electricity. EXHIBIT 3 Draft Minutes of the Public Utilities Board Meeting August 25, 2014 Page 2 of 2 Russell asked about the education to the customers on this program . Cox stated there will be education but this program will not be for everyone. It will give the customer more ownership to pay more attention to their account and manage more effectively. They will have access to customize their account for e-mails or text messages. Russell then asked about turning off electricity with extremely high or low temperatures . Cox responded that above 100 degrees and below 32 degrees there are no disconnects, there is a moratorium in place. Gallivan asked if this is the same vendor that is in Bryan, Texas . Cox answered it is a different vendor. The motion was made to approve by Board Member Gallivan with a second from Board Member Russell, vote 5-0.

The building is one of the few buildings in Denton c Colonial Revival architectural style, as evidenced by its tiled roof and embellishments that recall similar details in Spanish missions found in South T Hall West, Elmer Van Slyke, used this style in several buildings Southwest including buildings at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth. City Hall West received City of Denton landmark status in 1982 i approved by the Denton City Council. The local landmark designation provides the highest preservation protection available, as it requires the HLsignated exterior modifications and any consideration of demolition. The RTHL designation sought by the DCHC will enhance the integrity of protections already in place. Once designated with an RTHL marker, City Hall West will be included on a list maintained by the THC of RTHL-marked buildings. Inclusion on this list will raise visibility of City Hall West and surrounding historic structures Square, through heritage tourism. Inclusion on the THC list of R-marked buildings thus supports external marketing efforts of the City, a stated goal oenton Downtown Development Plan.

(Pati Haworth) Haworth stated that she has distributed a copy of a letter under review to the Commissioners. Lockley requested to advise the Commission of an update from City Council on this item. Lockley stated that City Council has expressed an interest in 221 N. Elm Street and has subsequently requested that the Commission postpone any action on this item until further direction from the City Council. Haworth inquired why a state landmark designation would jeopardize City Councils interest in the building. Lockley stated that City Council was only requesting no further action for the time being. Haworth requested confirmation of how long further action was to be postponed. Lockley stated that he would consult with the City Manager’s Office and advise the Commission of a time frame. Conte stated that the Commission should postpone action on this item pending further direction from City Council. Haworth inquired if the request to postpone further action on this item originated from staff or City Council. Lockley replied that the request was from City Council which developed from a broader discussion with staff regarding the downtown in general. D. Hold a discussion and takeaction regarding the proposed state landmark designation of 221 N. Elm Street. (Pati Haworth) Haworth recited a letter of recommendation, which supported the Denton County Historical Commission (DCHC) in their efforts to secure a Texas Historical Landmark designation for City Hall West, 221 North Elm Street, Denton Texas. Conte suggested the Downtown Denton Development Plan be referenced as such instead of the older, dated format. Riddle commented that this letter would allow the DCHC to move forward with their research and recommendation. Riddle motioned, Mauelshagen seconded to approve the correction of the dated wording of the letter to read Downtown Denton Development Plan instead. Motion approved. (10-0) Haworth motioned, Keffer seconded to approve the letter for presentation to City Council, as amended. Motion approved. (8-0) Exhibit 7 P&Z Work Session Minutes December 11, 2013 requesting additional parking spaces. Bentley questioned if the runoff in the designated areas would allow the landscape to survive; Viera stated some of the areas have a French drain which allows the water to drain out. Bentley referred to Rosa’s Restaurant and their landscaping situation, Viera stated post oak trees are not meant to be in wet areas. Schaake stated further discussion will occur during the regular session. 2.Receive a report, hold a discussion and consider making a recommendation to City Council for a resolution to be sent to the Texas Historical Commission in support of a recommendation from the Historic Landmark Commission for the designation of 221 N. Elm Street, also known as City Hall West, as a State Historic Landmark. The Historic Landmark Commission recommends City Hall West be considered for State Historic Landmark designation (8-0). (HL13-0001, City Hall West, Cindy Jackson) Lockley introduced Jackson. Jackson stated this item is for clarification since this item will come before this Commission in January 2014. Jackson stated City Council wanted time to examine their options on the outcome of this building. Jackson stated any exterior renovations of this structure would require a Certificate of Appropriateness that goes before the Historic Landmark Commission (HLC). If the HLC deems the renovations to be detrimental they work with the applicant on how to move forward. Jackson stated if the building receives the recommended state designation they are required to follow the Texas Historical Commission (THC) regulations. Jackson stated normal maintenance and interior renovations are not required to have THC review. Jackson stated the HLC recommends approval of the designation (8-0). Conner questioned City Council’s directive; Cabrales stated staff is still in discussion with a developer, they are a part of a larger development proposal. Cabrales added this item has not been taken back to City Council. Cabrales stated City Council has directed staff to move forward with discussions with the developer. Bentley questioned if the City would consider selling the property to anyone that isn’t interested in preserving the property. Cabrales stated the developer is aware of the importance of the building. Schaake requested clarification of local and state entities. Cabrales stated both entities only have restrictions over the exterior of the building. Briggle questioned if both entities have different standards. Jackson stated both entities follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards. Schaake questioned if this Commission has reviewed this item before; Jackson stated no, this is the first time this Commission has reviewed it. Jackson added this item would not have a public hearing since it is not something the city would take action on, it would be the state taking action. Schaake questioned if City Council moves the item forward to the state; Jackson stated City Council would approve a Resolution in order for it to move forward. Conner questioned if City Council is required to approve the resolution. Jackson stated they are not obligated to do so. Conner questioned why this Commission is reviewing this request; Cabrales stated the property owner has to be in agreement and since the property owner is the City this is how it would go before the state. Bentley questioned if this Commission would only be making a recommendation; Cabrales stated that is correct. Exhibit 8 P&Z Meeting Minutes April 8, 2014 5.PUBLIC HEARING: A.Hold a public hearing and consider making a recommendation to City Council regarding recognition of 221 N. Elm Street, also known as City Hall West, as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark designation. The Historic Landmark Commission recommends City Hall West be considered for State Historic Landmark designation (8-0). Lockley stated this is a recommendation to City Council for this Commission to show their support or nonsupport of this designation. This is not a formal approval or denial on this item. Lockley introduced Jackson. Jackson stated this is a recommendation to City Council to designate City Hall West as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark (RTHL). City Hall West was constructed in 1927 and has served as Denton’s City Hall, a Fire Station, Theater, a Police Department, and now houses the City’s Development Services Department. In July 2013, a representative of the Denton County Historical Commission approached the former Historic Landmark Commission Chair, Karen DeVinney and asked for the Commission’s support for the proposed State Historic Landmark designation of City Hall West. The item was placed on the HLC’s August, 2013 agenda. During that meeting, the item was not voted on per City Council’s direction. The Council requested that the HLC postpone consideration of the recommendation for State Historic Landmark designation of CHW until further notice. There has been significant interest in the purchase of this property by an outside entity. The Council would prefer to examine their options for the sale of this property before committing to making a recommendation in support of an additional historic designation. The building was designated a local historic landmark in 1982, per ordinance number 82-69. Jackson stated a consequence of this local designation is that any exterior renovations must first be approved through the Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) process. The HLC reviews COA applications to ensure that the proposed renovations would not adversely affect any significant architectural or historical feature of the designated historic landmark, and is appropriate and consistent with spirit and purposes” of the originating ordinance. Jackson stated the required permits for locally designated landmarks are as follows: Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) is for exterior work only; this can be reviewed in five days by Administrative approval for maintenance or by the HLC with a 21 day review time period. Also, building permits might be required which is a 10 day review time period. Jackson added with the RTHL Designation all exterior renovations would have to be approved by both the Texas Historical Commission (THC) and the HLC. The applications for the exterior renovations must be forwarded to the THC 60 days prior to commencement of work. Subsequent to approval by the THC, the HLC would then review the proposed renovations through the COA process. The benefits of the RTHL are recognition that a property is of local, regional or state significance. This allows protection for up to 90 days from exterior alterations, including demolition or relocation. Also, eligibility for state preservation grant funds. The HLC recommends City Hall West be considered for Recorded Texas Historic Landmark designation. Bentley questioned if the COA process is what is already required for the subject building, Jackson stated that is correct. Bentley referred to the review time for both entities; Bentley questioned if these reviews can be reviewed simultaneously. Jackson stated the building permit and the COA can be submitted at the same time; however, staff doesn’t recommend that process. Conner questioned the designation being attached to the land. Jackson stated it is not the property, only the standing building. Conner stated the backup materials stated this Commission wished to postpone this item; Jackson stated that was her understanding. Conner stated this Commission didn’t wish to postpone this item, they were instructed to do so. Briggle questioned the process to remove the designation that is currently on the property. Jackson stated is similar to the rezoning process. Briggle questioned if that would require a Public Hearing; Jackson stated correct. Briggle questioned the process to remove the proposed state designation; Jackson stated she is unfamiliar with that process. Briggle questioned penalties for the developer doing the work they want to on the structure without permission. Leal stated he is not familiar with the State Historic Designation and their processes. Briggle stated it looks like some of the review processes can happen concurrently; what was provided looked to be the worst case scenario. Jackson stated typically applicants do not submit a building permit until they have the first approval requirement. Briggle questioned if it normally takes the four months; Jackson stated with the THC. Bentley stated the provided details and staff report are written very vague. Bentley added he spoke with the THC and was provided other details. Bentley added all of the review processes can be run concurrently. Bentley stated after speaking with the individual in Austin, Texas with the THC, he gathered that their review doesn’t require the approval or denial to go before a Board or Commission. Bentley added there are more benefits to the designation than what was provided in the staff backup and presentation. Jackson stated she based backup material information on the Texas Administrative Code. Lockley added the backup materials staff provided were all information they could confirm; research was gathered and confirmed and provided support on that information. Schaake opened the Public Hearing. Beth Stribbing, 201A Brairhill Lane, Argyle, Texas Stribbling stated she is the Chairman of the Historic Resource Survey. Stribbling added she was addressed in 2011 about this request. Denton currently has 15 properties with this designation; which is not a lot of properties. There is a lot of value in designating this property. Stribbling stated she too felt the backup materials didn’t provide enough information. Pati Haworth, 1506 Highland Park Road, Denton, Texas Haworth stated authenticity of the downtown is key to social, cultural, and long time residence. Haworth stated she is in support of this designation. There was no one else to speak on this item. Schaake closed the Public Hearing. Conner stated he doesn’t have an issue with this designation. Conner stated he would like a motion to be made for City Council to receive more information than what this Commission was provided. Taylor stated this is a historic building with a lot of significance. There are a handful of truly historical buildings in the downtown area. Taylor stated he cannot make a decision on the potential sale of the property since there was no information provided on the sale of the property. Conner questioned his recommendation on staff’s backup. Schaake stated that would need to be directed to staff. Bentley the notice was listed as a recommendation. Bentley questioned if that is legally different than this Commission providing their support. Lockley stated it is the same language. Commissioner Devin Taylor motioned, Commissioner Frank Conner seconded to recommend this item to City Council. Motion approved (7-0). 6.FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS: Under Section 551.042 of the Texas Open Meetings Act, respond to inquiries from the Planning and Zoning Commission or the public with specific factual information or recitation of policy, or accept a proposal to place the matter on the agenda for an upcoming meeting. Lockley stated the requests made by Briggle and Taylor would be provided during a Work Session Item at the March 19, 2014 meeting. Bentley stated he has a comment for staff and the way that they look at notices for variances. The CVS Pharmacy case was noticed as a hardship; Bentley stated he felt the request being made was not a hardship. Lockley stated staff can review that. Bentley stated an article in the Dallas Morning News that the City is allowing food truck parks. Bentley stated this was heard before this Commission as a Work Session Item and has not been brought back before this Commission. Lockley stated staff read the article in the Denton Record Chronicle. There were several comments that were inconsistent. There is not an approved food truck park ordinance. Lockley stated staff can provide more information on this item and bring it back before this Commission. There was no further discussion. Schaake adjourned the meeting at 8:35 p.m. Exhibit 9 CC Work Session meeting minutes April 8, 2014 City of Denton City Hall 215 E.

Flower Mound, TX 75022 Property Owner: Charles Byrom, Estate of C.L. Byrom, P.O. Box 603 Sanger, TX 76266 Location: The property is generally located northeastofthecity limits, on the west side of Cooper Creek Road,approximately 1,200 feet north of Fishtrap Road and 800 feet south of Silver Dome Road. Size: 40.33+ Zoning Designation: N/A Future Land Use:N eighborhood Center Case Planner: Michele Berry DRC Recommendation:APPROVAL The Development Review Committee recommends of A14-0001. Summary of Analysis: The request is to grant a petition to annex to a property owner in the City of Denton Extra- Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ). The proposed annexation would allow the developer to develop both the subject property and the adjacent properties that are within the city limits as a single- familysubdivision. If annexed, the developer intends to bring forward a zoning case to establish the initial zoning on the property. The initial zoning cannot beginuntil the property in withinthe city limitssincethe City does not have zoning jurisdiction in the ETJ. Annexation should be considered when a property is located within the designated urbanizing area; is expected to accommodate urban growth in the next twenty years; and if the annexation is contiguous to existing city limits, city roads and rights-of-way. In addition, The Denton Plan calls for proactive annexation of land in the southern ETJ and other urbanizing areas that become attractive for urban development, due to close proximity to areas being subdivided. The tract of land being proposed is located in Denton’s ETJ Division 1, it is considered an urbanizing area per The Denton Plan, and is adjacent to city limits. The subject site is not platted, and any subsequent subdivision or reconfiguration of this tract will be subject to the City’s subdivision regulations. The developer plans tosubdivide the immediately adjacent land to the north, west, and south within city limits for residential development. The annexation process is regulated by the Texas State Local Government Code. Per Section 43.028 of the Texas Local Government Code municipalities may annex by petition of property owners if the land is: (1)That is one half mile or less in width; (2)That is contiguous to the annexing municipality; and (3)That is vacant and without residents or on which fewer than three qualified voters reside. The 40.33 acre subject property meets all three of the above-referencedcriteria. The petition to be annexed was approved byCity Council on May 6, 2014. As a result,staff has prepared a service plan and scheduled the annexation proceedings for this property. Development Review Committee Based upon the information provided by the applicant, the Development Review Committee IS CONSISTENT finds that with the recommended conditions the request with the surrounding IS CONSISTENTIS land uses and general character of the area, with the Denton Plan, and CONSISTENT with the Denton Development Code. Based upon the findings-of-fact, the Development Review Committee (DRC) recommends APPROVAL of A14-0001. GENERAL NOTES NOTE: Approval of this request shall not constitute a waiver or variance from any applicable development requirement unless specifically noted in the conditions of approval and consistent with the Denton Development Code. NOTE:All written comments made in the application and subsequent submissions of information made during the application review process, which are on file with the City of Denton, shall be considered to be binding upon the applicant, provided such comments are not at variance with the Denton Plan, Denton Development Code or other development regulations in effect at the time of development.

Summary of Surrounding Zoning Designations and Current Land Use Activity: Immediately surrounding the property is acreage with or without agricultural use and farm and ranch improvements. However, approximately 1,000 feet to the northwest is the Deer Forest Subdivision. In addition, a pre-application conference for a residential subdivisionhas been submitted for the area to the north,east,and south. This area was previously in a General Development Plan and is currently zoned NR-4 and NR-6. Comprehensive Plan: A.Consistency with Goals, Objectives and Strategies The Growth Management component of the Denton Plandesignates this property as “Urbanizing Extraterritorial Jurisdiction.” The Denton Plan also indicates this area is future residential on the Growth Management Plan. This project is consistent with The Denton Plan. It is proposing development in an area designated as urbanizing in the Growth Management Plan. Furthermore, the type of development proposed is residential and the area is designated a neighborhood center per the Future Land Use Map. B.Land Use Analysis The request is compatible with existing land uses and land use goals in The Denton Plan. The DentonPlan calls for annexation of approximately 15,000 additional acres for single- familyuses. Since 1999, the City has annexed approximately 20,827 acres. A large portion of this area is the Greenbelt Corridor, whichis anticipated to be preserved as open space. Other portions of the land that has been annexed will be developed with commercial or industrial uses The developer is pursuing theproposedannexation to create a residential subdivision. The annexed area will be part of a larger residential development by thisdeveloper. The developer anticipates residential development under the NR-4 and NR-6 zoning districts. This is compatiblewith thezoning adjacent to this property. In addition, there is an elementary school to the northwest and several churchesserving as community focal points. By annexing the property, the City can ensure that its development regulations apply. The development would need to meet all City codes and criteria. The City has little control over the uses permitted, design, or standards if left in the ETJ, but the property can still be developed without being annexed or zoned. In addition, the property is located in an area surrounded by the City of Denton (See Exhibit 2).
