During the Meetings, data and feedback were gathered to begin the update process. Stakeholder Engagement provided a time to discuss the comprehensive plan update and gather feedback from community stakeholders. This was accomplished through stakeholder interviews, Mobile Meetings, Informational Community Meetings, public outreach, and more. Community Forum 1 (Issues and Trends) defined areas of consensus on the important issues facing the City of Denton and on community members'values and aspirations for the future. Community Forum 1 sought ideas on Denton's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges. The Community Survey provided statistically valid input from a cross - section of the community to supplement the "self-selected" approach of the first Community Forum and other means of input. During the strategic directions stage, analysis and input will be synthesized into a long -term community vision statement, Goals, and Policy Framework that set the direction for preparation of the full comprehensive plan update. The consultant will draft a Community Vision Statement that articulates community members'goals and aspirations for the future of Denton. The consultant will develop three Alternative Growth Scenarios based on current trends, public input, and the Community Vision Statement. Each scenario will be reviewed and analyzed to examine future growth and land use options, while simultaneously estimating the financial impacts. Community Forum 2 (Vision and Policy Framework) will solicit community member input and build consensus on the Community Vision Statement, Community Character Considerations, and Alternative Growth Scenarios. Consultant will utilize the results of the building consensus exercises from Community Forum 2 to create the Preferred Growth Concept that reflects the desired future pattern of growth and development in Denton. Consultant and staff will develop a complete Comprehensive Plan Document Draft, including identification of integrated strategies, plus an implementation strategy that prioritizes short -, mid -, and long -term actions and establishes a monitoring program with indicators and benchmarks to measure plan performance. Community Forum 3 (Draft Plan Review) will receive citizen input and feedback on the draft comprehensive plan. Consultant and staff will revise the comprehensive plan document to reflect the results of the draft plan review process. The final draft of the comprehensive plan will be scheduled for Public Hearings and Adoption through the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. Once the Final Plan Adoption occurs, it will be available in electronic and hard copy formats, and the Implementation Strategy will commence.

Accessibility: This is the ease with which people can access a full range of facilities such as shops, leisure, employment, and other public areas. Accessibility is affected by the location and distribution of uses; transportation choices, including facilities for less mobile people; the physical design of spaces and pedestrian circulation systems. New development will be accessible to the widest range of people both in terms of its location, the physical design of spaces and buildings, and its accessibility via transportation modes including bicycle, pedestrian, and transit. Health & Safety: A well - designed built environment can help to improve safety and security. An unsafe environment can discourage human activity and render a site unusable. Good lighting and proper site design are also important factors. Efficient transportation design can contribute to reduce air pollution emissions. Strategically placed landscaping and careful architectural design can reduce energy consumption and save money. Designers will be expected to demonstrate that the health and safety of the city has been a factor in producing new development schemes. Encourage self - policing and discourage crime by incorporating Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) strategies into building and site design. Connectivity: The number of alternative ways people are able to move through a community is a measure of its connectivity or permeability. New development should maximize permeability both within the site and in the neighborhood. Site design must be based on the promotion of wati(abitity and modal choice, including access to bicycle, pedestrian and transit networks and efficient use of existing paths and patterns of movement. New development is designed to complement the existing street grid network and maximize the choice of movement within and through the site. Paths into a site connect rather than forming a series of dead-ends. Cut-de-sacs are generally discouraged except under circumstances, such as the presence of topography, stream corridors or other barriers. New development will be expected to take advantage of opportunities to promote wati(abitity and modal choice, including access to bicycle, pedestrian and transit networks. Neighborhood Scale: A neighborhood is limited in physical size, with well-defined edges. The size of a neighborhood is generally defined as a five-minute wall( or one-quarter mite from the neighborhood edge to its center and a ten- minute wall( edge to edge. Human scale is the proportional standard for all structures and accessory components. Automobiles are allowed within the neighborhood but do not take precedence over the pedestrian or human needs, particularly the aesthetic functions that include a sense of place. These neighborhoods will typically contain transit stops and will utilize transit-oriented design. Durability & Endurance: Durability and endurance are very important factors in achieving a sustainable, built environment. The use of high- quality materials for surfaces should be a priority. The resistance of materials to wear is important if they are to last and not require excessive maintenance. Flexibility and adaptability in the design and layout of space are also important factors to accommodate changing demands and a variety of activities in coming decades. Variety: Architectural diversity and creativity should be encouraged to avoid homogeneity and sterility, white still mandating high- quality and sustainable construction. Contrast and variety contribute strongly to visual interest and viewer perceptions of quality. Implementation of design standards by the city will pay strong attention to avoid regulations that promote sameness and stifle individuality. Sustainability: Sustainabitity is a theme of Denton Plan 2030, as well as a priority for Denton. As such building and neighborhood designs should strive to achieve the highest possible standards for sustainabitity. In the design process, rating systems such as LEED for New Construction, LEED for Neighborhood Development, and Green BuittTm Texas should be consulted as a reference with the intent of incorporating as many green building elements as feasible.

Good legibility is important because it allows people to find their way around the city. Development schemes will be expected to complement and reinforce the urban character of: • Paths that help define proper routes for movement; • Districts that are recognized as areas of similar character, with unified features such as land use density; architectural style, scale, or construction age; • Landmarks that provide specially recognized feature unique to the city; • Edges that indicate distinctions between different neighborhoods or land use districts; and • Nodes that are created at the juncture of paths or are created as special activity centers. Architectural Quality: The impact of architectural quality will strongly influence the quality of growth during the next twenty years. High- quality design and materials in all future development that will create attractive business destinations and encourage economic development for the future. The following architectural principles shall be used to guide decisions regarding design of structures: • High - quality architectural design should be encouraged. Innovation, creativity, and originality are considered to be primary ingredients of high- quality architecture. Unique or challenging design solutions will be welcomed. Such buildings are individualistic, provide contrast, and in these ways create local identity and contribute to local distinctiveness. • Careful consideration of proportioning, detailing, and context is important in designing buildings adjacent to historic buildings and within historic areas of the city by providing variety and defining space. • Architectural design will be used to integrate the functions of buildings with public spaces, adding to interest and vitality. The impact of architecture on public spaces must be considered. Main frontages and corners should include major entrances, windows, or other features to create activity and visual interest at the ground floor level. • Design materials will be used and expressed authentically and appropriately with the use materials and design features indigenous to the region. Use high- quality, durable materials to ensure long -term quality and appreciation of local design. • The City will partner with developers on development projects and will actively explore the use of competitions in the development of significant public buildings as a means of encouraging more distinctive design. Calls for design and programs for development related to projects that demonstrate consistency with the comprehensive plan may be explored by the city in partnership with potential developers and design professionals. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Historic Precedent: Development should echo and complement the historic character of Denton's past, including materials, fenestration, scale, height, roof pitch, and street orientation. New buildings should demonstrate thorough knowledge of historical architectural information and context, but should not imitate older buildings. In the case of infill, materials, fenestration, scale, height, roof pitch, and street orientation should complement the character of the existing area. Consider the adaptive reuse of existing buildings and warehouse for all types of uses. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Building Scale and Orientation: Buildings should be oriented to address primary streets or thoroughfares in order to create a sense of presence on the street and create a strong street wall. In order for a street to achieve the intimate and welcoming quality of an outdoor room, the buildings along it should compose a suitable street wall. Building height should be sized in proportion to the width of the street and to the surrounding context of the neighborhood or block. Build -to lines should be used to determine how close buildings will stand to the street. If parking lots are necessary, they should be located behind or to the side of buildings. Additional standards may be employed to govern recess lines for upper stories, and transition lines, which denote a distinction between ground floors used for retail and the upper story floors for offices and apartments. Building massing and facade articulation should contribute to a fine - grained, pedestrian scale environment at the street level that promotes walkability. • Definition of Public Space: Buildings should be sited carefully to create a defined public realm. Build -to lines should be utilized to establish a consistent series of building facades and to shape outdoor spaces, including the street and areas for community gathering, including plazas, courtyards, and parks. The street is an important form of public space, and the buildings that define it should be expected to reinforce and enhance the streetscape corridor.

Development should encourage bicycle and pedestrian access that contributes to efficient and safe travel for all modes. This includes consideration of the approaches and access to development, and the arrangement of spaces within the site. Developers should contribute funding for public transportation improvements where warranted, accompanied by a reduction in off- street parking requirements. • Entrances: Primary street entrances of all building types should front onto the primary street. In multi - family residential developments, ground -floor units should front onto and access the street, rather than having a shared entry and access from interior corridors. • Location of Parking: Residential garage structures should be located to the rear of the lot with alley access or employ shared driveways from public street frontages where there is no alley access. Garage entrances facing the street or those with side garage entrances accessed from a shared drive are set well back from the front facade so as to obscure views of the garage entry. • Parking Standards: Off- street parking requirements should reflect respect for environmental quality considerations. Parking location and associated landscaping should be carefully regulated to avoid unacceptable expanses of pavement. Large parking lots should be broken into smaller sub -lots and screened with planting. • Car -Free Development: Mixed -use development in the Downtown core and adjacent to universities should not require off- street parking, but rather should rely on on- street and shared parking along with transit, bicycle, and pedestrian use. • Service Areas: Solid waste containers should be located out of public view on private property, in areas specially designed to accommodate truck maneuvering. The use of innovative technologies to reduce the visibility of solid waste operations should be encouraged. Small Area Plans should contain strategies for solid waste improvements in existing developed areas. • Lighting: Install adequate and sufficient lighting throughout the area for added safety, visibility, and comfort. Lighting should complement the overall character and design of a building or neighborhood and not be visually intrusive to neighbors or the night sky. Lighting should be energy efficient. • Landscaping: Incorporate distinctive landscaping into the design of buildings when feasible, contributing a vibrant, inviting setting. Accentuate key focal points, entrances, gateways, and corners of a development with accent plant materials and trees. Use local planting materials and those requiring minimal maintenance to contribute to their long -term health and upkeep. • Signage: Design high quality signage that contributes to community identity, improves wayfinding, that is highly visible and legible. Require all signs within and around a development to be high quality, professionally designed, and creative symbols of community character. Limit attached and detached signage to achieve private advertisement and wayfinding but not clutter corridors and detract from community aesthetics. • Provision of Onsite Open Space: In commercial, multi - family residential, and mixed -use development, ensure the provision of shared open space and amenities in a central gathering location that is safe, well -lit, and accessible. Use shared open space as opportunities for community gathering, events (depending on the size), public art, and expression of community character. Elements of the Public Realm: In addition to the built environment, elements of the public realm are an essential element of the character of a city. The design of the public realm includes streets, sidewalks, parks and open space, and bridges and transportation structures. These elements should be designed to address their adjacent uses, be well appointed and maintained, and facilitate safe and accessible function for all modes. • Design of Bridges and Transportation Structures: Qualified and creative engineering input should be used in the design of mobility infrastructure, with interesting structural solutions, rather than the addition of decorative detailing to a standard structure.

Trees and other plantings will be properly coordinated with utilities to avoid conflicts with maintenance of the public right -of -way and competition for limited underground space. The City will fully consider the significant value of trees and the urban forest when resolving infrastructure conflicts; and select and plant appropriate tree species on public rights -of -way that maximize planting potential while protecting the safety of the public. Landscaping shaft promote tow- impact design, including water - efficient irrigation practices, the use of drought- tolerant planting materials, and permeable paving to promote the sustainable design of the public realm. • Adaptation to the Natural Environment: Development should complement natural topography and respect natural systems, including tree canopy. Development should be located outside of, the loo -year floodptain, including roadways. Rather developments adjacent to floodptains should establish green space between the road and the floodptain to serve as open space, limit flood exposure, and facilitate channel maintenance. Development should not remove valuable tree canopy, but rather contribute additional trees to the urban forest. riF�f�ErrP�Exrr to Eh(-" J "u fi rF�relrr'� t Xrraahle rrrmr.Oals (In siP(" opeo ";pare" IAAe„cafpol'vion o/ rrru fi -rrrc da/ eh- 'rm"Ws w rr.aP��rrAA��rlxfF� rr��'rPrtrr���l,Sr 7< P ................. 121 TalbiE? 4.2m Wxed •use Crk[eriia (lbased cin IIYCTCOG's Vision Notrh Texas) ........................................................................................................................

Another key component ofthe plan update is to address issues that are considered strengths, but may have facets that could prove challenging in the future. For example, the presence ofthe universities has been highlighted as a major strength in the community forum and other feedback opportunities, but the potential impacts of university expansion into adjacent neighborhoods was also highlighted as a major challenge to be addressed in the plan.

At the same time, local businesses and creative /unique entrepreneurs are also vital to Denton's future growth. Maintaining excellent access in the region via expressways and transit are also considered key to Denton's successful future, and improving connectivity between major activity nodes (universities, downtown, etc.) are important opportunities. Some participants also want to maintain Denton's unique image and natural systems while accommodating growth and economic development. Many ofthese issues are in elements ofthe current Plan that will be addressed and expanded upon in the update.

APPENDICES �� VIII N III r� VDOI OGIHES . . � t -1 ' 2, 0__"_.v 11RA29 Denton Plan 2030 Growth Trend Scenario Methodology The Growth Trend Scenario illustrates the 15- to 20 -year development pattern that is likely to occur in Denton based on projected population, recent trends, and existing conditions and regulations. In simple terms, it represents a "what the future will look like if we do nothing different" scenario. This document describes how the City of Denton is expected to grow over the next 15 to 20 years, assuming growth continues in a pattern similar to recent decades. Key data inputs, assumptions, and steps that were taken to prepare the Denton Growth Trend Scenario are summarized in the following sections. The Growth Trend Scenario map (Figure 3) indicates, conceptually and in broad strokes, where residential and non - residential growth is most likely to occur. Existing Conditions and rrends The following facts, derived from data analysis of population and land use trends, were key in constructing the assumptions for the Growth Trend Scenario, as described later in this document: • Denton's population increased by 41 percent between 2000 and 2010, growing from 80,537 to 113,383 people. This was its most intense decade of growth since the 1960s. • New projections forecast an additional 93,951 residents by 2030. • Denton has a higher proportion of single - person households than Denton County and Texas as a whole. Thirteen percent of these were residents aged 65 or older. In the same year (2010), only 22 percent of Denton County's households and 25 percent of all households in the state of Texas were single - person households.' • The population of Denton is fairly young. The 18 to 24 age cohort comprised one quarter of the city's population in 2000 and 2010. However, the city's adult population has seen an increase in the number of older residents, generally due to the aging of the baby boomer generation. • These demographic shifts involve changes in housing preferences that Denton's housing market does not meet today, such as more multi - family housing and units for singles and young families. ' Population projects were derived from the report Economic and Demographic Projections for the City of Denton: An Update, " Prepared by Center for Economic Development and Research; University of North Texas. April 2011. Data were based on the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 2010. . . � t -1 2, OLlr i�t Mfi <<o fUf(,tn1 DRAFT • Denton has annexed over 20,500 acres of land since 1999. • Between 1967 and 2000, a total of 24 natural gas well permits were issued in the City of Denton. Between 2000 and 2010, almost 500 permits were issued. Development opportunities are limited in areas with high concentrations of natural gas wells and associated pipelines. rrend Factors and Methodollogy 1. Projected Population and Housing / Non-Residential Growth In order to estimate the 15- to 20 -year development pattern that is likely to occur in Denton in a "business as usual" scenario, the Growth Trend Analysis begins with an estimate of future housing demand based on specific factors including current and projected population, household size, and existing housing units. Table 1 illustrates the data and calculations used to arrive at projected 2030 housing demand, which is a factor of projected population growth (projected minus existing population) divided by existing household size. As indicated in Table 1, it is estimated that Denton will need an additional 37,282 housing units to accommodate its projected population in 2030. Table 1- Population and Housing Growth 2010 Population (1) 113,383 2010 Household Size (2) 2.52 2011 Total Housing Units (3) 43,755 2030 Population Projection (4) 207,334 2011 -2030 Population Change (5) 93,951 2030 Housing Demand (6) 37,282 Total Projected 2030 Housing Units (7) 81,037 (1) Source: US Census Bureau (2) Source: 2010 US Census (3) Source: American Community Survey 2007 -2011 5 -year estimates (4) 3% Annual Growth Source: University of North Texas Center for Economic Development and Research (5) 2030 population projection - 2010 population (6) 2011 -2030 population change /household size (7) 2030 housing demand + 2011 total housing units . . � I'll 2, �r i�t I'i <<o DRAFT 2. Residential Dammed The next step in the Growth Trend Analysis involves estimating projected housing unit demand by type (single family, multi - family, and other) and the associated land area required to accommodate it. Table 2 shows the projected residential units by type as a proportion of existing (2011) units. For instance, 54 percent of existing units are single family and 54 percent of projected units will be single family, resulting in about 20,000 additional single family units by 2030. Using the existing proportion of housing types reflects the status quo of development patterns in the city. Projected units were then multiplied by the existing acres per unit to arrive at the projected acreage needed to accommodate each housing type. Projected acreage was then adjusted to accommodate an additional 25 percent land area to incorporate associated roads /infrastructure. As shown in Table 2, the greatest housing demand is in the category of single family detached, which will also require the vast majority of land area in the future.

Non-Residential Dammed Next, the Growth Trend Analysis determined the amount of non - residential development needed within the next 15 to 20 years. This calculation was done by applying the current proportion of residential to non - residential development (in acres) to the new residential area (in acres) projected in Table 2. This resulted in a combined total of 5,282 acres needed for commercial, industrial, and institutional development to support residential growth in Denton. The summary of calculations is shown in Table 3. Table 3 - Non - Residential Demand by Type (1) Source: City of Denton GIs (2) Existing dev. non - residential acres / total existing dev. residential acres (3) % of existing dev. residential area x new residential acres Note: It is assumed that some major institutions that already encompass significant portions of land within the city (26% of the total institutional land) would not continue to grow in the some proportional rate to other uses within the city. 4. Land Consumption The total amount of new land that will be needed to absorb Denton's projected growth is summarized in Table 4 — Land Consumption. This combines the new residential and non- residential development calculated as described above. A total of 16,061 acres will be needed to accommodate Denton's projected 2030 growth. The estimated location of this new growth, as depicted in the Growth Trend Scenario, is expected to follow similar patterns of development to recent trends. The scenario is depicted in Figure 3 and was developed based on a combination of factors, including the Projected Population and Housing /Non - Residential Growth analysis, Susceptibility to Change analysis, and assumptions for placing growth. This methodology is described in Sections 5 and 6 below. . . � t -1 2, 0__"_.v 11RA21 Table 4 - Land Consumption (1)Total Municipal Acreage (2) Existing residential acres (3) Source: American Community Survey 5 -year estimates (4) Average acres per unit (developed residential area / total units) (5) Projected new dwelling units (2011 -2030 population change /household size) (6) New residential area = (average acres per unit x new dwelling units) (7) New non - residential acreage estimated at 69% of new residential area 5. .Susceptibility to Change Analysis The Growth Trend Scenario assumes that much of the necessary growth in Denton would occur in areas that are undeveloped, unconstrained, and located within the city limits (note that it is assumed that the non - annexation agreement areas will be annexed by 2030). In order to estimate the areas where growth would occur beyond that, a Susceptibility to Change analysis was conducted, examining the geographic areas most suitable for development and likely to change. The analysis is informed by layering a number of susceptibility indicators including natural features, topography, and floodplains, areas of existing or planned development, access to existing roads and infrastructure, and amenities. This methodology is described below: Methodology Using GIS, WRT created a series of raster files representing each of the selected susceptibly indicators. Each file was given a numeric score from 0 to 10 to weight how likely the indicator is to influence development. The higher the score, the more likely the land will be developed in the future. Each indicator used in the analysis is described below: Out of Bounds Areas: The analysis assumes certain portions of the city are out of bounds and not susceptible to future development or redevelopment patterns. This land includes waterways and existing parks. The "out of bounds" areas are excluded from the analysis and are shown in white on the map (Figure 2). . . � t -1 ' 2, 0__"_.v 11RA29 Excluded: • Waterways: Includes undevelopable waterways and bodies of water such as Hickory Creek, Cooper Creek, Pecan Creek, and the Trinity River as well as ponds and small lakes. The scale of analysis includes a buffer around these waterways that are also excluded. • Parks: Publicly owned parks within the City of Denton. Factors of Susceptibly: After excluding the areas considered out of bounds, the Susceptibility to Change analysis was applied to remaining lands within the city. Specific portions were given a low susceptibility score, meaning these areas are considered least likely to change in the future. Lands within the lowest susceptibility areas were given a score of '0' to indicate their likeliness of being developed. This score was defined given that individual susceptibility indicators do not increase the susceptibility of land to develop. Lands with higher susceptibility were given a higher score, with '10' representing the highest susceptibility. As such, each individual factor may or may not contribute to any given area's likelihood of development. All factors were weighted equally with areas likely to change of a higher value than those where change is not likely. These factors are illustrated in Figure 1 and described below. Environmentally Sensitive Areas: Existing areas of environmental sensitivity include the 100 -year floodplain identified in the preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMS), as well as upland and water - related habitat. As development near the ESA's is discouraged, susceptibility decreases as proximity to the ESA's increases. Slope: There are a number of areas in Denton that have slopes greater than 25 percent which typically make development more cumbersome. Although Denton is not a city particularly limited by topography, this factor was still included to inform the Analysis. Susceptibility decreases as slope increases. • Gas Wells and Pipelines: Gas wells and pipelines have proliferated in and around the City of Denton in recent decades. While the impact of gas wells and pipelines on future development is still unknown, they have the potential to impact where future development is allowed. Therefore, susceptibility decreases as proximity to concentrations of gas wells and pipelines increases. Proximity to Roads: Land in proximity to existing roads is more likely to develop given that access is a primary factor in an area's desirability for development. Areas with access to 1 -35E and 1 -35W are particularly susceptible to change. Susceptibility decreases as distance from roads increases. . . � t -1 2, 0__"_.v Y�� 11RA29 Non - annexation Agreement Areas: In the City of Denton, the Annexation Plan includes land that may be annexed in the future. If the City does not act on its intent to annex, the City will lose the ability to annex said land. Therefore, the analysis treated land within non - annexation agreements as equally as likely to develop as land within the city. (Note: this is the area previously referred to as the 5 -year Annexation Plan). • Proximity to Existing Development: Land in close proximity to existing development signifies importance of land use adjacency and development trends as to where new development will occur. Susceptibility increases as proximity to existing development increases. Proximity to Schools: Areas close to existing schools are desirable for residential development as they offer a key facility needed to attract new residents. While additional schools will be provided as development increases, development is more likely to occur where a school already exists. Susceptibility increases as proximity to schools increases. Water and Sewer Service Areas: Development is more likely to occur where infrastructure already exists. Susceptibility increases within current Water and Sewer Service Areas. Once the Susceptibility to Change analysis was conducted, the overall analysis was applied to the entire city using each susceptibility indicator added together to obtain a cumulative "score" of susceptibility. Land that was considered particularly susceptible likely fell under multiple categories of susceptibility and thus was ranked the highest. The individual susceptibility layers are shown in Figure 1, and the combined susceptibility results are overlaid in the composite Susceptibility to Change map shown in Figure 2.

Parks. etcl . . � t -1 ' 2, CILIr p h Lo thw fGri.(mu DRAFT Growth rrend Scenario Using the projected growth calculations in Steps 1 through 4 and the Susceptibility to Change analysis in Section 5 as the starting point, the Growth Trend Scenario (Figure 3) estimates where development is likely to occur over the next 15 to 20 years if current trends continue within the city's existing city limits. The projected growth was placed throughout the city according to the development types allowed by the city's current zoning. All of the existing zoning districts of similar character were grouped together to coincide with the projected residential and non - residential demand categories in Table 1 and Table 2 to determine where future development would go. The total land area for each category was placed in the undeveloped areas within these grouped zoning districts according to their level of susceptibility to change. For example, Denton has over 20,000 acres of undeveloped land currently zoned for low- density residential uses (including approved Master - Planned Communities, and agricultural areas). According to the growth projections identified in Table 2, there will only be a demand for 8,663 acres of single family residential development over the next 15 to 20 years. Therefore the growth in this category is placed in the undeveloped areas zoned for single family residential with the highest susceptibility until the total demand of 8,663 acres is reached. This process is repeated for each of the five projected land use categories identified in Figure 3. To depict a realistic vision of where growth might occur, the following assumptions were made. Institutional Development: For the purposes of this analysis, the Growth Trend Scenario does not attempt to locate projected institutional land uses, it is assumed that projected institutional development, such as schools, is incidental to residential development and is incorporated with single family residential uses on the map. It is also assumed that growth associated with institutions such as hospitals and universities will be contained within their existing footprint, or will occur in a case -by -case manner that is beyond the ability of this exercise to predict. Non - annexation Agreement Areas: It is assumed that this land will be annexed by the City by 2030 and is considered as likely to develop as other land within the city even though these areas do not currently have a zoning designation. It is assumed that highly susceptible, undeveloped land in these areas will contain predominantly single family development with small percentages of commercial, institutional, and other residential development.

The majority of this area is built out, and the current trend for single family and non - residential development occurs outside of this area. • Zoned Land: There is sufficient land zoned for residential and non - residential uses projected to accommodate growth well beyond the projected 2030 Growth Trend. Greenfield Development: No land beyond the existing city limits and non - annexation agreement areas is needed to accommodate the projected growth. Due to the scale of undeveloped and agricultural land with existing residential and commercial zoning, no agricultural land would need to be rezoned to accommodate the projected population and land use growth.

Fiscal Analysis Zones After refinement of the Growth Trend Scenario, a Fiscal Impact Analysis will be conducted to quantify the costs of serving future development based on the "business as usual" pattern of growth. The Fiscal Impact Analysis model requires that the Growth Trend Scenario to be divided into discrete geographic areas, or Fiscal Analysis Zones. Fiscal Analysis Zones are areas within the City that share similar characteristics and that allow the analysis to reflect differences due to geography. As indicated in Figure 3, the Fiscal Analysis Zones that have been proposed for Denton include the Core, North, South, East, and West zones.

These draft concepts were shared with the CAC and discussed with staff to inform the development of Alternative Scenarios. These are shown in Figure 1. Compact Development IM . Refine Allternative Growth Concepts Mixed-Use Centers u r k ,yd K Using concept direction, WRT refined growth concepts based on input from City staff, proposed developments and infrastructure improvements, and examination of development potential of key areas within the City. Based on this input, three distinct scenarios are created: Centers, Corridors, and Compact. These scenarios are intended to be conceptual and illustrate three discernible options that can direct future urban form and future investment. 1 Den-ton' I'll at'i E > 0 Figure 2 - Centers Centers Uty of Denton Non-annexatiori Agreement Area Existing f:aevea opnient Highway Major Road Rakroad ---- Planned Road Dentori Plai'i .. . . ....... 2 0 . ... .... 3 EP 0 380 77 rl V 377 -77 Den-ton' I'll at'i E "> 0 Figure 3 - Corridors lkntan fllian Corridors , Den-ton' I'll at'i E "> 0 Figure 4 - Compact Uenton Plan Compact . . � t -1 ' 2, 0__"_.v . projected Proportion of Development The development allocation under the alternative scenarios will assume that future growth can divert from its current trend. For example, the Growth Trend projected that the same proportion of single - family residential, multi - family, and other residential typologies would remain consistent. In the alternative scenarios, this proportion will be adjusted to reflect the community's input and expressed interest in more managed, and balanced growth in a compact, walkable, development pattern. The Compact Alternative added an additional higher- density land use in order to accommodate projected number of housing units within the most compact development form. These ratios are shown in Table 1. Commercial, industrial, and institutional development proportions are unchanged from the Growth Trend Scenario. These land uses support residential development, as calculated by total number of housing units, which are unchanged from the Growth Trend.

Capacity Studies and Allocating Growth Once the general location of new development areas were identified with input from Denton city staff, WRT determined where growth could be accommodated under each of the scenarios. Growth was placed based on underlying land use, surrounding context, zoning, and avoiding environmentally — sensitive areas. Growth was placed first in vacant or undeveloped areas. Rather than in the Growth Trend where the "susceptibility to change" determined where new development would go, growth in the Alternatives Scenarios followed the proposed urban framework (Centers, Corridors, Compact) as the key influence, and in some situations resulted in redevelopment or a change in zoning. Also proportions of redevelopment were suggested based on relative obsolesce of buildings and commercial zones, or where a greater amount of density was needed to be consistent with the framework of the scenario. It is important to note that redevelopment is a "best guest" assumption, but does not suggest that stable neighborhoods and commercial areas, universities, or historic properties would be affected. In no case is development proposed in Environmentally - Sensitive Areas, even if development is already located there. All scenarios also acknowledged the widening of I -35E and the 500' right - of -way that would be required, which limited growth around highways. Areas where a concentration of gas wells exists was also assumed to be less likely to support residential growth. The capacity of Centers and Corridors are illustrated in the Tables 3 and 4 below. The Alternative Scenarios assume that much of the necessary growth would be accommodated in a compact development pattern, but that there would still be land needed in the periphery to accommodate a portion of the growth. Once the amount of land totaled to occur in identified . . „ t -1 2, 0--"'-.v Centers and /or Corridors was calculated, the remaining necessary land needed for growth will was placed in approved subdivisions and where no environmental constraints existed.

This is shown in Table 5 and described below. Table 5- Compact Alternative Development Capacity Developable Area in Compact Growth Scenario Total Area in Core 23,344 - ESAs 3,621 - Infrastructure (25 %) 5,836 Remaining 13,887 - Industrial Land Use 1,111 Developable Area 12,776 - Undeveloped Land 5,113 Area to be Redeveloped 7,663 Development Demand in Compact Growth Scenario Residential 6,414 Non - Residential 4,126 - Industrial Land Use 1,111 Total Land Demand 9,432 - Undeveloped Land 5,113 Remaining Demand 4,319 Area to be Redeveloped/ Remaining Demand 4,319/9,432 % Redevelopment 56% The goal of the Compact Scenario was to accommodate all proposed growth with the "core" of the city— meaning within Loop 288 and the proposed completion of Loop 288 west of 1 -35. This area was estimated in GIS to be 23,344 acres. Reducing this area by 25% for infrastructure, as listed in Table 1 and 2 assumptions, 5,836 acres were subtracted. The total acres of parks and Environmentally - Sensitive Areas within the "core" amounted to approximately 3,621 acres, which was also subtracted from the developable area. The assumption was made that industrial land use density would not change, so this total demand of 1,111 acres was included in this scenario. Thus, the resulting area on which development could occur, even in existing areas, is 12,776 acres. Using the density yield from Table 1 and 2 for the Compact Trend, a total of 9,432 acres would be needed to accommodate residential, commercial, and institutional uses. This is broadly assuming that the proportion of both residential and non - residential demand and density will shift. Those percentages are shown in Table 1. It is assumed that the density of commercial . . � t -1 2, 0__"_.v Y�� uses will increase as well, as most development will be compact rather than suburban in nature. Thus the compact trend assumed that half of the amount of commercial acreage would be needed (1,155 acres). Again, it is assumed that industrial land use density would not change, so this total demand of 1,111 acres was included in this scenario and is allocated in the same locations as in the other alternatives. A total of 5,113 acres are undeveloped within the "core," as measured in GIS. Therefore, development would go there first, leaving 4,319 acres that must be allocated in redevelopment areas. Removing these 5,113 acres from the 12,776 of developable land leaves 7,663 of currently developed land that must accommodate redevelopment. In order words, 4,319 acres of new growth must occur within 7,663 acres that currently contains development, yielding 56% redevelopment of the existing built environment. 4. fflustr tenon of Scenarios Once the detailed analysis was completed, the scenarios must be illustrated in a format that creates a clear picture of where growth could be concentrated in the future, and appear distinctly different from one another. Therefore, the location of growth is generalized in a graphic format to show relative size and proportion of development as calculated in the detailed analysis. These will be presented at Community Forum 2. Once the preferred scenario is determined, more specific allocations of land uses will be will be developed in preparation of the Final Plan. The scenarios are illustrated simply to show that development can be accommodated in the framework suggested. Land uses are grouped to show a range of density and "mixing." This means that as density increases, so does the amount of mixed -use development. Also, land uses in the scenarios are not meant to be interpreted as single uses, but rather to illustrate a range of potential uses. As an example, low- density residential areas can include single - family residential in addition to schools and parks. Similarly, commercial areas can include a range of retail types, commercial offices, and employment locations. Land uses are illustrated generally, because the scenarios are meant to illustrate general locations of land uses. Developing more specific locations of potential future land uses will be included as part of the Preferred Scenario and Final Plan. . Character Overlays Once future land use has been placed according to the above methodology, the Alternative Scenarios will then be depicted to incorporate a series of character overlays that demonstrate high priority future development considerations, as expressed during Community Forum 1. These character overlays are important for determining future development character, but do not change the allocation of land use. These key themes include: Green Infrastructure Mobility 10 . . „ t -Il 2, OJ",v • Placemaking Diagrams will be developed to illustrate these overlays as "constants" within the land use alternatives. The community will be asked to prioritize these items on a scale of 1 to 5 during Community Forum 2 to confirm that these should be included as part of Alternative Scenarios. 11 . . „ t -1 ' 2, CILIr p h lx thw fGri.(mu 12 -9 -13 Denton Plan 2030 Preferred Growth Concept Methodology At Community Forum 2, held in October and November 2013, the public reviewed the Growth Trend Scenario and three alternatives to the Trend: 1) Centers Growth, 2) Corridors Growth, and 3) Compact Growth. The Growth Trend depicts where growth and development are most likely to occur over the next 15 to 20 years based on "susceptibility to change" factors, with no change to past trends and policies. The three alternatives to the trend, developed with the results of Community Forum Series 1 and guidance from the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) and the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), illustrate options for development patterns that use land more efficiently, promote mixed uses, and are more walkable, compact and fiscally responsible. Community Forum Series rwo Community Forum Series 2 was held at four events during October and November 2013. Approximately 100 total participants attended four open houses to learn about the issues facing Denton, and to express preferences regarding land use development scenarios and community character. The open houses included brief presentations and an opportunity for participants to learn about the growth and development trends in Denton, talk with the consultants and City of Denton staff, and to share their opinions about development. The open houses featured 5 stations with 41 informational or input boards. Stations 1 contained information about the Plan Update process, Station 2 provided background information on land use and density decisions, and Station 3 contained information about the budget and organizational structure of the City. Station 4 contained information and indicators on each of the scenarios on which participants were asked to vote. Indicators included initial findings on environmental and fiscal impact that helped weigh participants' decisions in voting for alternative futures. Station 5 presented options for Community Character, or elements of the city's environment, design, and mobility patterns that could be applied to any scenario. Participants were asked to vote on each which of these community character elements was most important to include. Voting was conducted using dots. A questionnaire was also distributed at the end of CF2 that allowed participants to share comments and feedback about the process and about the scenarios. The following tables summarize results from the open houses sessions. Approximately 100 community members voted for their preferred future scenario and community character considerations. Community Forum 2 Results Station 4's Preferred Land Use Scenario Votes Upon viewing and evaluating the four land use scenarios based on the information presented in Station 4 as well is the information from Stations 2 and 3, participants were asked to vote on nt "l 2, 0__"'_.v 12 -9 -13 their preferred land use scenario for the future of Denton. Participants were able to vote for a first and second choice. The tally of the voting is shown in the table below. For the overall score, a weighted approach was used in which first choice votes were counted twice and second - choice votes once. The final score represents the weighted combination of all votes received through the four Community Forum 2 events. What is youir First Choice Scenario?

This scenario was followed by Centers Growth (29 %) and Corridors Growth (26 %), each with just over a quarter of all votes. The Growth Trend received the least number of votes at 12 %. This information will be used to shape the Preferred Growth Concept that will be used to guide the development of the Future Land Use Plan for Denton. Station 4's Development Priorities Votes To gain a better understanding of why someone voted for a particular Scenario, participants were asked to vote for their top three priorities for future development in Denton. The results of this voting process are shown in the table below. What acre youir oveirallll priorities for ffutuire development in Denton? More Mixed Use 41 17% Jobs Close to Home and Accessible by Walking and Transit 44 18% Reduced Greenfield Development 33 14% Improved Transit Access and Service Throughout the City 37 16% Less Waste and Water Use 19 8% Increased Walkability and Trails Throughout the City 53 22% Lower Infrastructure and Service Costs 11 5% Total 238 100% Note: Participants were asked to vote for their top two priorities. . . � t -1 2, 0__"_.v Y�� 12 -9 -13 Percentages are rounded. Based on the total number of votes, the top three priorities were: 1) Increased Walkability and Trails (22 %); 2) Jobs Close to Home and Accessibility by Walking and Transit (18 %); and 3) More Mixed use (17 %). These key priorities will be used to refine the Preferred Growth Concept, ensuring that the priorities will be able to be met with the proposed development pattern. The emphasis that the community placed on these development priorities will also help determine the importance of weighing the elements of the Preferred Concept and eventually including policies related to these themes in the Denton 2030 Plan. Station 5's Community Character Considerations Votes Community Character Considerations are items that can be implemented in any Growth Scenario that reflect important issues specific to Denton. Similar to the land use scenarios, community members were asked to vote for their first and second choices for those items that were "Very Important" (First Choice) to include within the Preferred Concept and those that were also "Important" (Second Choice). As with the land use scenarios, a weighted approach was used to determine overall score in which first choice votes were counted twice and second - choice votes once. The voting for Community Character Considerations revealed the following preferences: What is youir First Choice Coirnirnuinity Character EIleirneint "Veiny iirnpoirtaint?"

Tied for second and third most important community character considerations were Green Infrastructure and Multi -Modal Access, both with 22% of votes. Although Conservation received the fewest number of votes, it received the highest number of . . � t -1 ' 2, 0__"_.v Y�� 12 -9 -13 second choice votes, demonstrating that it was still an important item for many community members. Summary The input received at Community Forum 2 was very insightful for informing the future development pattern of the City of Denton over the next 15 -to -20 years. Community members were strongly in support of a Compact Growth pattern for the city, and for the clustering of development around key areas (i.e. Centers or Corridors) rather than fragmented sprawl as shown in the Growth Trend. A Compact development framework was further supported by the prioritization of mixed -use development, linking of the community through walkable pedestrian networks, and the potential for jobs located closer to home, reducing commuting times and creating balanced, mixed -use neighborhoods. Finally, the community confirmed that maintaining and increasing "Placemaking and Urban Vitality" is an essential attribute of their future Denton. This reinforces the need for maintaining a strong Downtown core and sense of place in existing character areas of Denton, allowing new development to complement those areas, as well as providing areas of new development that can be centers of community in the future. The desire for a Compact Growth pattern was further reinforced by the community's voting for multi -modal transportation options, which are more easily accommodated through compact growth, as well as protecting environmental resources through the inclusion of Green Infrastructure elements and Conservation areas. Many of these elements can be acknowledged through policy in the updated Denton 2030 Plan, as they affect much more than just new growth. . . „ t -1 2, 0--"-.v 101M What is the Preferred Growth Concept? 12 -9 -13 The Preferred Growth Concept is a conceptual vision for the form, character and general location of development of the City that reflects the input and expressed preferences of the community participants. The general location of new development and areas for intensification will be the basis for the development of a Future Land Use Map that will be included in the Denton 2030 Comprehensive Plan Update. Process The Preferred Growth Concept combines various aspects of each of the scenarios and community character elements that received the highest number of votes. Additionally, comments received through the questionnaire distributed at CF2 helped add detail to formulation of the Preferred Concept. The refinement of the scenarios and the creation of the Preferred Growth Concept involves both the creation of a graphic combination of the scenarios, and the creation of a distribution of land uses demonstrating development capacity. The distribution of land uses will then be used in order to calculate the fiscal impact of the Preferred Concept, which can be compared to each of the four scenarios. The Compact Scenario received the highest number of votes at 33 percent of votes. As a result, this scenario provides a strong basis for the development of the Preferred Growth Concept. Adjustments were made to this base to incorporate elements of the Centers and Corridors growth scenarios which were considered to be the first or second choice by 29% and 26% of votes, respectively. The voting for the Centers and Corridors revealed that the community is interested in seeing development clustered around distinct locations, such as Corridors and Centers, rather than haphazard sprawl. In the creation of the Alternative Scenarios, development capacity studies were conducted in order to ensure that the projected amount of development could be accommodated under each scenario in the locations shown. The Growth Trend was created based solely on the "susceptibility to change" analysis, while the Alternatives Scenarios depicted more compact 5 . . � t -1 2, 0__"_.v Y�� 12 -9 -13 growth occurring in more purposeful patterns (Centers, Corridors, Compact). Growth was placed based on underlying land use and zoning, surrounding context, and avoiding environmentally – sensitive areas. Growth was placed first in vacant or undeveloped areas, and then was placed in areas that could potentially redevelop. These steps are repeated for the Preferred Growth Concept, to assure that the projected development and the locations shown were feasible. Factors evaluated in this process included: • Existing land use • Context evaluation using aerial maps • Existing zoning • Approved subdivisions • Environmentally - sensitive areas • Vacant or underutilized areas • Areas adjacent to 1 -35 that could be affected by its widening • Areas adjacent to corridors currently being upgraded (i.e. Teasley and Mayhill) • Areas of gas well proliferation • Areas otherwise likely to redevelop • Areas in the vicinity of areas identified as important for placemaking and urban vitality In each scenario, the amount of projected land use that is needed to match population growth had to be achievable. These development amounts —of both residential and non - residential land uses —were consistent throughout the scenarios. The total amount of residential units and non - residential acreage will be met within the Preferred Growth Concept as well, with the proportions of development most closely matching the preferences of the community. The development capacity analysis will be conducted using GIS and will accompany the Preferred Growth Concept map, as well as the location of development according to Fiscal Impact Zone. In addition to simply accommodating land use, the Preferred Growth Concept also weighs the priorities of the community in choosing the land uses scenarios. In Community Forum 2, the highest priorities included "Increased Walkability and Trails (22 %)," "More Mixed Use (17 %)," and "Jobs Close to Home and Accessible by Walking and Transit (18 %)." Through the placement of land uses, the draft Preferred Growth Concept will encourage a shift towards more mixed -use development, bringing together compatible residential, commercial, office, institutional, or other uses within a walkable scale. The direction of the Preferred Growth Concept will allow for increased pedestrian activity, reduced car trips for short distances, expanded housing choices, and opportunities for an expanded pedestrian and transit network. Finally, inputs of the Community Character preferences help refine the Preferred Growth Concept. The voting for the Community Character considerations revealed a desire for " Placemaking and Urban Vitality" (38 %), "Multi -modal Access (22 %)," and "Green Infrastructure" (22 %) in the community. Conservation received 18% of the weighted votes and the highest amount of second - choice votes, indicating that it was still very important to the community. This underscores the importance of a diversity of building types, sensitivity to the . . � t -1 2, 0__"_.v 12 -9 -13 environment, and an appreciation for areas for community gathering to be included throughout Denton. Locations of existing and potential areas of urban vitality also help to refine the location and character of potential development areas illustrated within the Preferred Growth Concept as well as potential areas for conservation, multi -modal access and the green infrastructure network. These are illustrated as they appeared on the boards for Community Forum 2, overlaid with the preferred land use and development framework. The Preferred Growth Concept will also be informed by the Fiscal Impact Analysis that was conducted concurrently with the aforementioned process. Order of magnitude development costs were shared with the community at CF2, corresponding to each scenario, so served as a source of information for scenario evaluation. The votes received by the community demonstrate that the most fiscally sound scenario —the Compact Growth Scenario —was the most popular. However, in the voting of land use priorities, "Lower Infrastructure and Service Costs" received only 5% of votes, showing that this was not the most important consideration for the determination of their votes. The fiscal impact findings are will help determine the scenario(s) that are most fiscally responsible, which will serve as one means of defining the manner of directing the location of development and the Preferred Growth Concept. Within the Denton 2030 Plan document, the Preferred Growth Concept will precede the Land Use Plan, appearing either in the discussion of the Vision or within the introduction section on Land Use. The concept is meant to serve as an overarching framework for development. It is not the Final Land Use plan, but rather a conceptual diagram to demonstrate how the land use plan will be refined and updated to meet the needs of the community for the next 15 to 20 years.

[ID S14-0007] BACKGROUND In 2011 the PUB and City Council selected a new site for the expansion of the King's Row Electric Substation. The PUB and Council also approved the acquisition of the substation property as well as property related to the location of the power lines that will connect to it. The Planning and Zoning board has approved a special use permit in October of 2014 which will be brought before the Council. Respectfully submitted: Phil Williams General Manager, DME Prepared by: Smith Day Compliance Manager, DME City of Denton Page 1 of 1 Printed on 11/26/2014 City Hall City of Denton 215 E. McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com D EN'FON File #: ID 14 -0813, Version: 1 Legislation Text Agenda Information Sheet DEPARTMENT: Planning and Development ACM: John Cabrales, Jr. Date: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Receive a report, hold a discussion, and give staff direction concerning proposed amendments to Ordinance 2014 -240 regarding a Specific Use Permit (SUP) granting a Wrecker Services and Impound Lots use on approximately 1.3 acres property zoned Employment Center Industrial (EC -I) to consider Akers Towing's request to modify the SUP conditions pertaining to fencing and the landscape buffer requirements. The discussion will include a report on the results of soil testing conducted by staff, to determine if contaminants are leaving the subject site. The subject property is generally located south of Smith Street, east of Dallas Drive, and north of Teasley Lane. BACKGROUND On August 5, 2014, the City Council approved a Specific Use Permit to authorize operation of a wrecker services and impounds lots on the subject property. In approving the SUP, the City Council imposed five conditions of approval to guide operations of the SUP. The conditions were: 1. The site plan as submitted and shown in Exhibit "B" and "C" shall guide the operation of the use of the property for wrecker services and impound lots. 2. Best management practices (BMPs) addressing stormwater quality shall not be required unless there is documented contamination. City Staff is directed to implement a monitoring program to determine whether any contamination is exiting the Property and into the watershed. If City Staff documents such contamination, the Applicant shall either: (1) install BMPs designed to treat hydrocarbons and attain the pollutant removal capabilities recommended for parking areas in the Integrated Storm Water Management (iSWM) Manual, as published by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, or similar practices consistent with low impact development (LID) approaches, so that the Applicant can be in compliance with the Denton Development Code's L(29) requirement; (2) or lose the SUP and cease doing business at the Property. 3. The applicant shall install an eight -foot (8') high screening fence and a type "B" buffer along the perimeter of the site. The landscaping shall be planted along the outside of the fence, and shall be irrigated and kept alive at all times. Material for the construction of the screening fence shall be made of wood or other opaque materials. City of Denton Page 1 of 4 Printed on 11/26/2014 File M ID 14 -0813, Version: 1 4. The applicant shall construct the screening fence and type B' buffer within 60 days after approval of this SUP. The screening and type B' buffer shall be maintained at all times for continual use of the property for wrecker services and impound lots. 5. The SUP shall expire when the Applicant, Akers Towing Company, under ownership of the Akers family, ceases its business covered by this SUP. On September 9, 2014, the City Council was contacted by the property owner via email to re- consider review of the SUP (See Exhibit 1), specifically to amend the conditions of approval requiring construction of an eight - foot fence and the buffer requirement. On September 22, 2014, staff met with the property owners on -site to discuss their concerns regarding construction of the fence and buffering of adjacent property. During this discussion, the property owners indicated they would have to remove existing trees along the perimeter of the property in order to construct the fence. They said vegetation existing along the perimeter of the site is sufficient to screen the property from adjacent property; therefore, they believe there is no need to provide additional screening beyond what exists on site. Unfortunately, most of the trees claimed by the property owner to provide screening are overgrown tall grasses, untrimmed trees, and overgrown shrubs from the adjacent property. The vegetation on the property owner's site alone would not be adequate to provide screening for the use on the property. In addition, Per Section 35.13.8.A.4 of the Denton Development Code (DDC), trees and shrubs required for a buffer cannot be located on a different property. On October 24, 2014, the City Council received an Informal Staff Report (ISR 2014 -079) regarding an update of the status of the SUP. Specifically, the ISR informed the City Council of the property owner's objection to construct an eight -foot (8') high screening fence and a type "B" buffer as required by condition number three (43) of the SUP (See Exhibit 2). The ISR re- stated the applicant's objection to construct the fence, as required by the conditions imposed on the SUP. On October 31, 2014, the property owner emailed Planning staff to request Council re- consideration of the SUP and associated conditions. In the email, the property owners indicated their reasons for requesting the City Council reconsideration. The applicant requests to discuss alternative suggestions to the conditions of approval they deem is best suited for their property (See Exhibit 1). Staff has evaluated the property owner's request, conditions of the approval of the SUP, and recommends that the property owner be required to construct a type "B" buffer along the perimeter of the subject property as required by the conditions imposed on the SUP. It is staff determination that existing trees along perimeter of the property and vegetation can be use as part of the type "B" buffer so long as those trees are on the property owners' lot. In addition, the property owner could construct the type "B" buffer only along the sections of the perimeter of the property which has no existing trees and vegetation. Presently, there is an existing chain link fence along the eastern and southern perimeter of the site. Staff recommends that the property owner install an opaque fence constructed with wood, masonry, brick, or other composite fencing materials along the eastern and southern perimeter of the site. There is an existing wooden fence constructed along the northern section of the property. However, a number of the wooden panels for the fence have been damaged or rotten (See Exhibit 5). Staff recommends replacing all sections of the fence damaged with new wooden panels. On the western perimeter of the site, the front side of the property facing the street, there is an existing wrought iron fence; staff recommends that the property owner be required to maintain this wrought iron fence and construct the type "B" buffer along the western perimeter, except on the sections of the entrance of the site that is used as a gate and entry point for vehicles. Constructing the proposed City of Denton Page 2 of 4 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: ID 14 -0813, Version: 1 buffer and fence along the perimeter of the site will reduce visual blight and enhance aesthetics of the immediate surroundings of the property. Currently, a number of the impound vehicles and equipments stored on -site can be seen from Dallas Drive. Constructing the fence and buffer will help mitigate this visual blight on such a critical entry point to the City of Denton. Condition number two (42) of the SUP required city staff to implement a monitoring program to determine whether any contamination is exiting the subject site to nearby watershed. Pursuant to this condition, the applicant is required to; (1) install Best Management Practices (BMPs) to treat hydrocarbons and attain the pollutant removal capabilities recommended for parking area in the Integrated Storm Water Management (iSWM) manual if contamination is determined to be existing the property and entering the watershed or (2) lose the SUP and cease doing business at the property. On November 14, 2014, the City Council received an ISR on results of the testing conducted by staff (See Exhibit 3). The results of the soil testing indicated contaminants are exiting the site. Staff is recommending that option 41 of the condition be exercised as adopted. Overall, the cost of the sampling effort and analyses was approximately $6,564.23. Per Section 35.6.6.13 of the Denton Development Code, A Specific Use Permit may be revoked or modified, after notice to the property owner and a hearing before the City Council, for a reason that one or more of the conditions imposed by the permit has not been met or has been violated. Pursuant to this Section of the DDC, the City Council could reconsider the conditions of approval adopted with the SUP or revise the conditions in accordance with request made by the applicant. Staff intends to schedule the subject request by the property owner for Council consideration on December 16, 2014. OPTIONS 1. Direct staff to proceed with the proposed amendments to the Specific Use Permit. 2. Direct staff to take another direction.

Name: Ida Akers Email Address: 2. Select Council Member(s) [x] Mayor Chris Watts 3. Question or Comment: Akerstowing @gmai1.com Mayor, I am unclear as to whom I need to contact about councils recent granting of SUP for Akers Towing. Fisrt I want to thank you for all that you have done for us here at Akers,but there is a small problem the sup that we received in writing is not the same that was agreed upon . I spoke Nana Appiah about it but he stated that since council approved it that it must be followed as stated, Mayor it is the perimeter fencing that was never addressed, should we place such a fence we would have to kill a tree of more than 100 yrs old and agreat deal of vegetation along with other trees that have grown into fence structure. It was my understanding that the city did not want passing public to be able to see our business. How is that fair other business are not behind a 8 ft fence and our impound lot is not visible from any road . We have a clean store front and no other automotive facility is behind a fence. None the less it seems that by clearing land to put up a fence that no one can see and destroy the vegetation and honeysuckle that thrive there and block any view in to property is clearly not in the best interest of any one . What I need is for is someone to look at this property and tell me that I can leave back fence alone since no visibly is possible from any road way and allow me to put up a fence In front area that is . I've contacted UNT and they are coming out to paint murals on fencing to have more curb appeal for the community. Mr. Mayor did you know my dad made that creek that was In question 20 years ago that we have protected and recently the city came a poured poison In to kill cat tails and killed a lot of the beautiful Johnson grass and everything else with in 8ft of it that's right it's ugly now and everything dead including a beautiful tree that was very much a part of our current landscaping. It is now dying a slow painful death . So tell me Mr Mayor how is that good for our city or our water or the people. Mr.Mayor city stated the chemical was environmentally safe but yet one has to have a license to use it and yet it killed everything in its path 1 How is that safe that has such an effect? We all here at Akers have been born and raised here In Denton and we only want what's best for everyone and be able to earn a decent living and do out part In our community . I myself volunteer with the Denton County Medical Reserve Corp also I am the Region 3 parent representative for Child Protective Services for more than 5 years I volunteer my time to work with parents helping for family reunification for safe families and better communities . I spoke publicly at the recent TWU and LINT Child Welfare Conference on Strengthening Families . I am the Project Co Ordinator for a new program The Parent Partner Program that helps families in the children welfare system . And of course my families business that with out that business I would not be able to help others in our community. So this is about so much more than just trees & fences .We are not trying to be unreasonable . We are being forced to comply with something that goes against our beliefs therefore we are contacting an attorney on this matter since no one does not want tell me what my options are about fence . I can not kill an extremely large tree Mr mayor the tree is at least 6 of you put together . I can't kill it . Just for a fence the city says I have to have . For what purpose does that fence serve that is not already being blocked by greenery ? Can we bring this before council again . It is so minor that once I show u the location of fence that is of issue I almost assure that all would agree it is pointless unless this a about some other issue that is not being said . But if it's about community well being then I just need the approval to move forward and get fencing up that will serve a purpose..

Subject: RE: Request for review hearing From: Akerstowing [mailto:akerstowinaCa)amail.com] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2014 2:54 PM To: Lockley, Brian K. Subject: Request for review hearing Brian it is my understanding that I need to request a review hearing before City Council to modify current SUP, therefore please accept this letter as a request for such hearing. The items that we would like to modify upon approval is on fencing hight,perimeter fencing and buffer zone as a perimeter fence would consist of eliminating all current vegetation which thoroughly covers 75% of perimeter. Also public and passing traffic is unable to visually view our impound lot from any main road, and to eliminate a 100 year old trees and heavy vegetation would be defeating purpose of reason for SUP- our environment in the first place . Akers has no problem with complying with requirements but would like a review hearing to discuss what is best for prop erty,property owners,City, the Community and the Environment. Please contact me as soon as possible as to a date that this SUP may be reviewed by City Council. Please email me if I need to provide a more detailed description of items in question.

The purpose of this communication is to update you on the status of their compliance with the conditions. On August 5, 2014, the City Council adopted an ordinance authorizing a Specific Use Permit for wrecker services and impound lots. The property is located south of Smith Street, east of Dallas Drive, and north of Teasley Lane and known as "Akers Towing ". As part of the approval of the SUP, the City Council required five conditions to guide operations of the use of the property for wrecker services and impound lot. These five conditions are: 1. The site plan as submitted and shown in Exhibit `B" and "C" shall guide the operation of the use of the property for wrecker services and impound lots. Best management practices (BMPs) addressing stormwater quality shall not be required unless there is documented contamination. City Staff is directed to implement a monitoring program to determine whether any contamination is exiting the Property and into the watershed. If City sStaff documents such contamination, the Applicant shall either: (1) install BMPs designed to treat hydrocarbons and attain the pollutant removal capabilities recommended for parking areas in the Integrated Storm Water Management (iSWM) Manual, as published by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, or similar practices consistent with low impact development (LID) approaches, so that the Applicant can be in compliance with the Denton Development Code's L(29) requirement; (2) or lose the SUP and cease doing business at the Property. 3. The applicant shall install an eight -foot (8') high screening fence and a type `B" buffer along the perimeter of the site. The landscaping shall be planted along the outside of the fence, and shall be irrigated and kept alive at all times. Material for the construction of the screening fence shall be made of wood or other opaque materials. 4. The applicant shall construct the screening fence and type `B' buffer within 60 days after approval of this SUP. The screening and type B' buffer shall be maintained at all times for continual use of the property for wrecker services and impound lots. The SUP shall expire when the Applicant, Akers Towing Company, under ownership of the Akers family, ceases its business covered by this SUP. Date: October 24, 2014 DISCUSSION: Report No. 000 On September 22, 2014 staff met with the property owners on -site to discuss the conditions of approval specifically, the construction of the fence and the type "B" buffer instituted by the SUP. During the meeting, the property owners conveyed their inability to construct the eight -foot high screening fence and the type "B" buffer. The reason cited was that the perimeter of the property is heavily treed; therefore, unnecessary to plant additional trees for a buffer. They also indicated that they would prefer to construct a six -foot high screening fence, instead of an eight -foot high fence. Unfortunately, the screening noted by Joe and Gloria Akers is overgrowth of tall grasses, untrimmed trees, and overgrown shrubs from the adjacent properties. When this landscaping is trimmed and cleared from the adjacent property, the remaining vegetation alone will not provide the screening that is required for this type of use. The buffer approved by Council pursuant to the SUP will provide the continuous buffer necessary to screen the property from public view. Pursuant to condition 42, the City's Environmental Services and Sustainability Department collected soil samples of the property south of the site for laboratory testing. In total, 12 samples were taken at various sites around Akers perimeter near the Stream. The sites were analyzed for metals and petroleum compounds (primarily Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons [TPH] and Benzene, Toluene, EthylBenzene, and Xylene [BTEX]). The City has received all of the data from the labs and is working on relating the data to any regulatory or risk levels. Council will be advised once the results are known. During the meeting, it was also revealed that the Akers property is for sale. As you recall, condition 45 of the approved SUP was adopted to address this is issue. Per condition 45 the SUP shall expire when the property owners, Akers Towing Company, under ownership of the Akers family ceases its business covered by the SUP. Staff has given a copy of the approved ordinance with the conditions of approval to the property owner and advised them to inform any prospective buyers accordingly. CONCLUSION During this meeting was the first time the Akers communicated any objections to the fencing requirement. Per the ordinance, the property owner is required to construct the screening fence and a type "B" buffer within 60 days after the approval of the SUP, which was October 5, 2014. The City has given the applicant until October 31, 2014 to submit a request for reconsideration before taking any further action. As yet, the City has not received their formal request for reconsideration of condition 43. Upon receipt of their request, Planning Staff will process their application through development review and schedule for Planning and Zoning Commission's and City Council's reconsideration of the fencing requirement. 2 Date: October 24, 2014 ATTACHMENT: 1.

The ISR informed Council of a recent communication that indicated the Akers objected to the construction of an 8' screening fencing as required in the SUP approved by Council. The update also addressed condition 42 of the SUP that required the collection of samples for testing that would indicate whether the stormwater BMP should be constructed on the Akers Property as originally recommended by staff. The monitoring has been completed by City staff pursuant to condition 42 of the SUP and is summarized below. SUP Condition 92 Best management practices (BMPs) addressing stormwater quality shall not be required unless there is documented contamination. City Staff is directed to implement a monitoring program to determine whether any contamination is exiting the Property and into the watershed. If City Staff documents such contamination, the Applicant shall either: (1) install BMPs designed to treat hydrocarbons and attain the pollutant removal capabilities recommended for parking areas in the Integrated Storm Water Management (iSWM) Manual, as published by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, or similar practices consistent with low impact development (LID) approaches, so that the Applicant can be in compliance with the Denton Development Code's L(29) requirement; (2) or lose the SUP and cease doing business at the Property. MONITORING SUMMARY Pursuant to condition 42, the City's Environmental Services and Sustainability Department collected soil samples of the property south and east of the site. The purpose of this sampling effort was to collect and analyze soils adjacent to the property line to determine if contaminants appeared to be leaving the site. Since the property generally drains to the south and to the east, sampling was conducted in these areas. Sample locations were established using the U.S Department of Energy's Visual Sampling Plan software program (Figure 1). A total of 12 sampling locations were identified and sampled on September 23, 2014. Samples were collected in accordance with United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) protocol (U. S. EPA Environmental Response Team, Standard Operating Procedures, 2012: Soil Sampling), using containers and preservatives as specified in the various laboratory methods and appropriate field quality assurance and quality control. Samples were analyzed for metals using 1 Date: November 14, 2014 Report No. 2014 -087 USEPA Method 200.8, BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethlybenzene, and xylene) using EPA Method 8260B, and total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) using TX Method 1005. Analyses for metals were conducted by the City of Denton Municipal laboratory, and analyses for BTEX and TPH were performed by Ana -Lab Corporation, an environmental testing laboratory. The cost for staff time and sample analyses for this effort was $6,564.23. Figure 1. Sampling locations Laboratory results are summarized in Tables 1 and 2. Many of the sampled metals did not exceed Texas - specific soil background concentrations, although zinc and lead consistently exceeded background concentrations. Lead concentrations in all soil samples also exceed the Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP, as found in 30TAC350) Protective Concentration Levels (PCLs) for the soils to groundwater ingestion exposure pathway. The PCL GWSoill"g for lead (Pb) is 3.0 mg /Kg. This would likely default to the Texas background level of 15 mg /kg for regulatory purposes, so only those values exceeding this background level are highlighted in Table 1. BTEX and TPH results show that BTEX was below detection limits for most 2 Date: November 14, 2014 Report No. 2014 -087 samples, and was below all TRRP PCLs. However, The TRRP GWSoiljng PCL for C12 -C35 combined is 200 mg /Kg for residential soils and 590 mg /Kg for commercial industrial soils. Unless a large amount of TPH in the site 2 sample is comprised of only 36 carbon atom molecules, site 2 likely exceeds the residential PCL value for C12 -C35 TPH CONCLUSION Overall, results indicate that metals and total petroleum hydrocarbons are likely leaving the facility in stormwater, particularly in the areas draining to Site 2. Staff has received a written request for Council reconsideration that is in process. After completion of the review, staff will schedule this item for a future Council meeting. ATTACHMENT Table 1.

BACKGROUND Council received a report and held a discussion regarding the draft 2015 State Legislative Program on Nov. 18. Staff was directed to bring forward additional information regarding the city's positions on both the sales tax holiday and any proposed textbook holiday. Current language in the proposed legislative agenda: "Oppose legislation that would lengthen or broaden the scope of the current sales tax holiday." The sales tax holiday takes place annually in early August and applies to most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks priced under $100 from sales and use taxes, which results in a savings of about $8 on every $100 spent by the consumer. The three -day holiday results in a loss of annual revenue to the City's general fund. The estimate will be provided to you at the Dec. 2 Work Session, as research is currently being conducted by staff. Current language in the proposed legislative agenda: "Oppose any legislation that would impose a sales tax holiday for textbooks." The City has traditionally opposed any legislation that would impose a sales tax holiday for textbooks. During the last two legislative sessions we joined other "college cities" in opposing these types of bills. We estimate that a sales tax holiday for textbooks, as has been proposed by some legislation in the past, would result in a loss of approximately $1,200,000 in annual sales tax revenue to the City. In addition, the State of Texas would lose approximately $5,000,000, from Denton alone, and Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) would lose approximately $400,000 in annual sales tax revenue. The projected impact above represents an exemption to all textbooks for all semesters in any given year. This amount does not take into consideration the impact it might have if the exemption were to be extended to non - textbooks or miscellaneous taxable college supplies.

ATTEST: JENNIFER WALTERS, CITY SECRETARY ffig APPROVED AS TO LEGAL FORM: ANITA BURGESS, CITY ATTORNEY • CHRIS WATTS, MAYOR Page 5 GENERAL LEGISLATIVE POLICY PRESERVE THE CITY'S STRATEGIC GOALS & INTERESTS STATEMENT OF PRESERVATION As a general policy, the City of Denton seeks to preserve its current authority to govern the city, its citizens, and its property. The City will oppose any legislation viewed as detrimental to the City's strategic goals; or that is contrary to the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens; or that mandates increased costs or loss of revenues; or that would diminish the fundamental authority of the City. SUPPORT LEGISLATION THAT ADVANCES THE CITY'S STRATEGIC GOALS & INTERESTS STATEMENT OF SUPPORT Likewise, the City supports any legislation viewed as advancing the City's strategic goals; or that improves the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens; or that responsibly increases revenues; or that advances the City's authority to conduct the public's business. The City will oppose any initiatives that seek to erode municipal authority or that otherwise have a negative impact on municipal operations, including but not limited to legislation that would: • Erode home rule authority; • Detrimentally affect the City's financial position by reducing revenue streams or increasing costs; • Erode the authority of Texas cities to manage and control their rights -of -way or other public property, and to be reasonably compensated for such use; • Erode current municipal economic development authority; • Erode the current authority of Texas cities to enact a system and set the level of impact fees for new development; and • Further restrict cities' ability to adopt or amend zoning regulations, and annex property in a city's extraterritorial jurisdiction. FORM COALITIONS WITH PARTIES THAT SHARE COMMON GOALS AND INTERESTS WITH THE CITY FORM COALITIONS The City will form strategic partnerships with cities, political subdivisions, and private sector entities that share common goals with the City of Denton. Additionally, the City will work in coordination with organizations such as the Texas Municipal League when their adopted positions are in -line with the legislative objectives and goals of the City. The formation of strategic partnerships and coordinated efforts is intended to provide the City with a stronger presence in the legislative process. Page 6 GOALS OF THE CITY'S LEGISLTIVE ACTIVITIES STATEMENT OF GOALS The fundamental goal of all City of Denton's legislative activities is to produce positive outcomes for the citizens of Denton as a whole. Numerous proposals in the Texas Legislature have the potential to seriously impact the ability of the City to carry out its overall mission. By taking a proactive role in monitoring and commenting on proposals in the Texas Legislature, we are working to ensure that the citizens of Denton can continue to enjoy the quality of life they have come to expect and deserve. Page 7 PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE AGENDA PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES 1. Preserve Local Budgeting Authority and Revenue Sources Oppose legislation that would unduly �^est�^ict the ability of the City to set its own budget or raise the necessary revenue to provide services to City residents and businesses. 2. Preserve Local Control of Land Use Planning and Zoning Support legislation that preserves local land use authority. Oppose legislation that would erode local land use authority by restricting the ability of cities to zone or rezone properties. Support legislation that would clarify that the state's vested rights law does not apply to subsurface mineral development as it relates to permits issued by the municipality for oil and gas development activities. 3. Preserve Local Control of Denton Municipal Electric • Oppose legislation that would deregulate Municipally Owned Utilities or amend their governing structure. 0 Support legislation that would preserve Municipally Owned Utilities' authority and governing structure that maintain a diversified energy portfolio. Page 8 DISCUSSION OF PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES Preserve Local Budgeting Authority and Revenue Sources The City of Denton will oppose legislation that will unduly restrict the ability of the City to set its own budget or raise the necessary revenue to provide services expected by City residents and businesses. ISSUE During the last several Texas Legislative Sessions, proposals have been set forth that would severely limit the ability of cities to set their budgets or raise adequate revenues to carry out their fundamental functions. For example, numerous proposals to "cap" local revenues and property appraisals have been filed in the Texas Legislature. Every elected official in the City of Denton is sensitive to the tax burden our citizens and businesses pay, and is accountable to the local electorate for the decisions they make. We are also mindful, however, that it takes a great deal of flexibility with our local budget to meet the unique demands for services while at the same time preserving the high standards our community has come to expect. PROBLEM Appraisal and revenue caps undermine the ability of local governments to meet the individual needs and circumstances of their cities. Additionally, one size fits all "caps" violate the fundamental principle of local control. Citizens and businesses have numerous opportunities to provide input to the City of Denton's budget and tax rate setting processes. Most importantly, the citizens of our City get to voice their approval or disapproval of our budgeting performance and tax rates every time we hold a City election. Unfortunately, extremely low appraisal and revenue caps can produce numerous problems. For instance, appraisal caps shift the inequitable tax burden to businesses and new homeowners. This inequitable shift can produce serious long -term negative consequences for the local economy. Revenue caps, on the other hand, require the City to cut services or take on more debt to fund local projects and services. These types of "caps" are particularly harmful to a city like Denton, because it prevents the City from adequately dealing with the infrastructure needs brought on by tremendous population growth. It is inappropriate for the State of Texas to expect local governments to provide numerous public services with no funding from the State, while at the same time unduly restricting the ability of local governments to raise the necessary levels of revenue to provide the required services. SOLITTInN If revenue caps are going to be applied to local governments they should be applied uniformly to the state budget as well. In short, the same rules should apply to all levels of government. The State could also supplement local government funding as other states that impose revenue caps have done. Page 9 Preserve Local Control of Land Use Planning and Zoning The City of Denton will support legislation that preserves local land use authority and oppose legislation that will erode local land use authority by restricting the ability of cities to zone or rezone properties. ISSUE Over the past few legislative sessions various proposals have been introduced to restrict the ability of cities to enforce their traditional land use controls. Specifically, legislation that requires cities to compensate landowners any time a zoning classification change is effected (often referred to as a "downzoning "), has come dangerously close to becoming the law. Under these proposals, cities would have to compensate landowners, even if the proposed zoning changes did not interfere with the current or intended use of the property. In addition to compensating landowners for zoning changes, proposals have been considered that would require compensation for numerous types of city regulations. For example, previously proposed legislation would have required cities to compensate landowners if they restricted the ability of patrons to smoke on premises or limited the time of day that alcohol could be served. All of these types of local restrictions have been debated under the theory of "regulatory takings." Additional legislative proposals would have prevented cities from ever changing the zoning classification of a property if any type of basic permit or site plan has been filed with any governmental entity. Since 1999 the Texas Legislature has continually expanded the "permit vesting" statute to include different aspects of city land use authority. The expansion of the "permit vesting" statute is beginning to interfere with the ability of cities to impose orderly, efficient, and comprehensive land use and development plans for their communities. PROBLEM Restricting the ability of cities to properly regulate land uses ultimately prevents them from being able to respond to the needs and demands of their citizens. For example, land use controls are used to keep undesirable businesses from locating in neighborhood -type settings. Additionally, one of the main reasons people live in cities is to have the protection of a regulated land use system. In short, when a home or business locates in a particular city they do so, in part, to ensure that an incompatible structure will not be placed next to their property. SOLUTION The ability of most cities to manage growth and development is based on the Texas constitution's home rule provisions. Cities are allowed to amend charters and pass ordinances as long as they do not conflict with the constitution or general laws enacted by the state legislature. This means that each home rule city can make its own decisions about what planning tools and techniques are most appropriate to its situation unless those tools have been proscribed by the Texas legislature. The State should be very cautious in proscribing solutions that are only applicable to individual situations because of the vast differences between cities in this large state. Page 10 Preserve Local Control of Land Use Planning and Zoning Support legislation that would clarify that the state's vested rights law does not apply to subsurface mineral development as it relates to permits issued by the municipality for oil and gas development activities. ISSUE Denton, Texas is a home rule city acting under its Charter adopted by the electorate pursuant to Article XI, Section 5 of the Texas Constitution and Chapter 9 of the Local Government Code. Denton, along with other cities in North Texas, identified that its gas well regulations did not fully implement the goals of allowing gas well operations while protecting the public's health, safety and general welfare. The rising demand for clean alternative fuel sources, and the advent of new drilling and production technologies, including hydraulic fracturing, has encouraged mineral development, including in the Barnett Shale gas play, a massive reservoir of natural gas underlying a substantial portion of southern Oklahoma and North Central Texas. The most active production zone of the Barnett Shale is situated under the highly urbanized Denton, Tarrant, and Wise counties. The City of Denton has witnessed significant conflict between increased drilling and urban expansion. The conflict between land use issues, that of gas well operations and that of surface owners seeking the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of their property, has become commonplace. Potential harmful impacts of gas well drilling and production within municipal boundaries fall heavily on neighborhoods and properties adjacent to gas well drilling and production operations, and the balancing of interests of the mineral owners and operators as against quality of life issues for those citizens working and living near drilling sites and production infrastructure has proven challenging. By way of example, during our ordinance review, citizens presented compelling evidence of the impacts of gas well drilling in an urban environment, to include noise, dust, odor, light pollution, vibrations, fire safety, visual aesthetics, surface property value impacts, negative changes to neighborhoods, incompatibility of land uses, impacts to infrastructure related to public health and welfare such as water wells, concerns over setbacks, landscaping, public notice, signage, issues related to operating hours, operator insurance issues, road impacts, and other quality of life issues. Additionally, gas well flaring, gas well completion techniques, closed loop systems, vapor recovery units, water and soil impacts, other environmental impairment issues, methods of plugging and abandoning wells, pits involved in gas well operations, emergency operation plans, and other operational aspects of extraction of minerals trigger public health, safety, property preservation, and order and security of the City of Denton and its inhabitants. Gas well operations have the propensity for polluting or degrading streams, drains, recharge features, or tributaries that may constitute or recharge the City of Denton's drinking water supply. Notwithstanding these concerns, the City encountered substantial resistance from local operators on its ability to prevent or moderate potentially harmful impacts of gas well drilling and production activities on adjacent and proximate land uses. Page 11 PRORLF,M The concept of vested rights, in particular, is argued to restrict a City's authority to address impacts of gas well drilling: vested rights, regulatory takings, and preemption. This paper is offered in support of the City's Resolution asking the Texas Legislature to clarify the state's vested rights law. "Vested rights" claims are grounded in Tex. Loc. Gov't Code, Chapter 245, as interpreted by the case of Harper Park Two, LP v. Austin, 359 S.W. 3d 247 (Tex. App. -Austin 2011). Under Chapter 245, once an application for the first permit required to complete a property development "project" is filed with the municipality that regulates the use of the property, the municipality's regulations applicable to the project are frozen in their then - current state and the city is prohibited from enforcing subsequent regulatory changes to further restrict the property's use. However, these vested rights protections are lost to the extent that the development being pursued constitutes a new or different "project" from the one for which the initial permit was sought. A "project" is defined in Chapter 245 is an "endeavor" that requires a series of permits to complete. It is the filing of the first permit in the series of required permits that triggers the vested rights protection under the statute. In the context of commercial or residential development, the application of the vested rights law is somewhat problematic, as illustrated by Harper Park Two. In the context of gas well drilling, it is even more difficult to apply. For example, assume that a gas well operator filed a gas well plat in 1992, identifying one well and a series of tank batteries on the plat. In 2007, the operator desires to drill five more wells, one of which is on the pad site of the original well, and three of which are on a pad site 5,000 feet distant from the original site. What is the project? Is it only that pad site identified on the original plat? Is it one well, or two wells, or five wells? Is the project the complete exhaustion of the mineral stores of the mineral lease, no matter the necessity of burdening the surface estate with additional wells and gas infrastructure? In an urban environment with underlying gas plays, the answer to these questions determines the health and safety and the quality of life of a municipality's citizens. SOLUTION It is Denton's position that the Texas Legislature never intended the vested rights analysis to apply to subsurface mineral development and that legislative clarification is need in this respect. Page 12 Preserve Local Control of Denton Municipal Electric The City of Denton will oppose legislation that deregulates Municipally Owned Utilities or amends their governance authority. ISSUE For the first time in over a decade, the 2011 State Legislative session saw bills introduced regarding partial deregulation for specific Municipally Owned Utilities (MOU). Ultimately, none of the bills passed into law. However, this type of legislative pressure toward specific MOUs can have a widespread, negative impact and unforeseen consequences on MOUs throughout the state. Municipalities owning an electric utility, such as in Denton's case, retain local regulatory authority through its main governing body, the City Council. It is the role and choice of these City Councils to determine each MOUs energy future by exercising its authority whether to opt - in to the deregulated market or to retain its local authority. In April, 2001, the Denton City Council took a wait - and -see approach and exercised its authority choosing not to opt -in to deregulation. To date, there has been no viable reason for Denton to enter into the deregulated market. Requiring MOUs to participate in the deregulated market essentially eliminates the authority of the governing bodies of MOUs and forces them to operate under the same guidelines as investor owned utilities. Historically, DME electric rates have remained stable and competitively priced. Mandating that an MOU participate in the deregulated market not only increases its financial burden, but also ensures that the increased costs are passed through to the DME ratepayers, thus placing DME at a competitive disadvantage in the electric market. In addition, should an MOU such as that owned by the citizens of Denton be required to opt -in, it mitigates the strategic measures that the local citizens have enacted such as requiring more renewable resources from their MOU. PRnRLF,M Austin Energy's (AE) rate increase has raised the deregulation issue and it is anticipated that legislation will be proposed to deregulate all or a portion of AE. The opt -in discussions concerning AE may be expanded to include all MOUs. For Denton to enter the deregulated market, the additional operating expense would be substantial. The current and additional operating expenses could be spread across a smaller customer base should customers exercise their "power to choose." A reduction in DME's customer base would ensure that its remaining customers would have to absorb the increased costs in the form of higher electric rates. SOLUTION MOUs must preserve the local authority and governing structure to provide affordable electric service and energy portfolio diversity to its ratepayers. Page 13 Preserve Local Control of Denton Municipal Electric The City of Denton will support legislation that preserves the authority and governance structure of Municipally Owned Utilities that maintain a diversified energy portfolio. ISSUE During recent sessions of the Texas State Legislature, proposals were sent forth regarding Texas' Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) and its proposed soft target for non -wind renewable generation. Restricting the types of generation which would qualify for inclusion in the RPS essentially eliminates the authority of the governing bodies of Municipally Owned Utilities (MOU) to procure renewable energy sources that are financially feasible for the MOU to maintain a diversified energy portfolio. As such, the increased financial burden for the City of Denton would be passed through to Denton Municipal Electric (DME) ratepayers. The City of Denton is a nationally recognized environmental leader because of its continued diversification of DME's energy portfolio. At no additional cost to its ratepayers, DME provides more wind energy per capita than any other city in the United States and offers one of the largest rebates for the installation of renewable energy generation in Texas. The City of Denton and DME recognize the importance of reducing the overall dependence on fossil fuel generation, while, at the same time being fiscally responsible to its citizens and ratepayers. PROBLEM Any legislation that eliminates MOUs' authority to determine and maintain a diversified energy portfolio is fiscally irresponsible to the ratepayers. While some areas are more suited for specific types of renewable generation, not all utility scale generation is appropriate in all locations. For example, the cost of constructing and operating solar energy generation can be prohibitive. While solar costs have declined over recent years, the capital costs, scarcity of land, lack of electric infrastructure, and diminished levels of generation output, as compared to conventional generation, can substantially drive the cost per megawatt -hour of solar energy production upward. It is unrealistic and cost prohibitive for the State of Texas to expect MOUs to provide economically priced electricity to its citizens, while requiring a diversified energy portfolio that includes predetermined amounts of specific renewable sources without funding from the State. SOLUTION MOUs must preserve the local authority and governing structure to provide affordable electric service to its ratepayers. If energy portfolio diversity becomes a requirement, MOUs should have the option to determine which renewable generation source is most suited to each MOU's service area. If a generation requirement is mandated, it should be applied uniformly to investor owned utilities, cooperatives, and MOUs. In addition, the State should supplement local government funding of the construction of utility scale renewable generation to offset the impact to the citizens of Denton.

McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com D EN'FON File #: ID 14 -0665, Version: 1 Legislation Text AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Solid Waste ACM: Jon Fortune AGENDA DATE: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance recommending approval of an interdepartmental transfer and conveyance wherein the City of Denton Solid Waste Department is purchasing and acquiring approximately 91.4 acres of land from the City of Denton Wastewater Department, the present record owner thereof, situated in the G. Walker survey, abstract No. 1330, being a part of such survey, and being described in three tracts, being a 37.196 acre tract; a 22.399 acre tract; and a 30.886 acre tract of land, situated in the City of Denton, Denton County, Texas; to be utilized for a public purpose, the expansion of the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Landfill Facility, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) MSW facility permit No. 1590A; finding that the expansion of the City's landfill facility is a public use; said purchase price being in the amount of $2,350,000, to be paid to the City of Denton Wastewater Department in annual cash payments, for a period of time not -to- exceed ten years; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; providing an effective date. BACKGROUND The City of Denton relocated its landfill operations from the Mosley Road site in Crossroads, Texas to our current Mayhill Road location in 1984. The 1984 site was originally 32 acres, TNRCC permit 41590. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enacted changes to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Subtitle D, which implemented improved design and operating criteria for MSW landfills receiving waste after October 9, 1991. The State of Texas developed its revisions to their Solid Waste Disposal Act to meet the EPA's new requirements and all MSW facilities in Texas were required to upgrade their facilities and their operating permits to meet the new rules. The City of Denton expanded its MSW facility in 1995 to include an additional 120 acres of disposal area, enlarging Denton`s total disposal area to 152 acres. The City of Denton received its new Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Facility permit from the TCEQ in 1997. The City Council has set goals for the Solid Waste and Recycling Services Department that include maintaining a minimum of 50 years of service, processing, storage and disposal capacity. Additionally, the City Council has set a waste diversion goal of 40 %. In order to achieve these long term strategic planning goals the MSW facility's TCEQ operating permit must be amended to include a facility expansion on existing Solid Waste Department and Wastewater Department property to provide for adequate processing, treatment, and disposal capacity for its integrated solid waste management system. The Solid Waste staff looked at expanding the MSW facility on solely its property, but this option could only City of Denton Page 1 of 3 Printed on 11/26/2014 File M ID 14 -0665, Version: 1 extend the facility's capacity by approximately eight years due to the narrow width requirement of the design, and would not achieve the Departmental minimum service capacity goal of 50 years. To achieve the minimum 50 year capacity goal, a preliminary design plan for the future facility requires an expansion to the north onto property currently owned by the Wastewater Department. The property sale between Departments allows the City to achieve maximum value for its property investments, and to achieve the most efficient utilization of space for the future MSW facility on the existing municipal acreage. The Wastewater and the Solid Waste and Recycling Services Departments have each studied their long -term space utilization needs on the overall municipal owned property. The long term goals of both Departments are achievable with the sale of the proposed Wastewater Department acreage to the Solid Waste Department. In 2008, SW staff hired the consulting firm, CP &Y, to conduct a feasibility study to determine whether the existing MSW facility could be expanded to achieve at least a fifty year service capacity if the Solid Waste Department purchased a portion of the adjacent property owned by the Wastewater Department, approximately 91.4 acres. The acreage planned for purchase will supplement property currently owned by the Solid Waste Department, which has been incrementally purchased from adjacent private property owners over the prior ten years. Site reviews to date have included surveying, geotechnical investigations, engineering design, traffic studies, environmental studies, and working through local permitting and zoning processes. Since 2011 the Solid Waste Department has been working with primary consultants to prepare the permit documentation for submittal to the TCEQ, which provides for the inclusion of an expanded permit area of 148 additional acres, of which 91.4 of those acres is the property currently owned by the Wastewater Department, planned for inclusion within Denton's proposed MSW Permit Amendment. The Wastewater staff is agreeable to selling the 91.4 acres to the Solid Waste Department for the planned MSW expansion and permit amendment. An independent third party property appraisal was conducted to determine the current market value for the acreage offered for sale, with the valuation being established at $2,350,000. Two Atmos Energy natural gas transmission lines run generally east west through the property in the vicinity of the Tract 1 and Tract 2 joint border (see Exhibits). The area north of the gas lines is planned for Solid Waste and Recycling ground operations. The area south of the gas lines will be utilized for landfill waste disposal. OPTIONS The City Council may approve the acquisition of the subject acreage from the Wastewater Fund, or they may reject staff's recommendation and the staff will develop the MSW Facility Permit amendment exclusively on currently owned Solid Waste Fund property.

McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com D EN'FON File #: ID 14 -0727, Version: 1 Legislation Text AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Materials Management ACM: Bryan Langley AGENDA DATE: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance accepting competitive bids and awarding a contract for the annual supply of light duty vehicles for various City of Denton departments; providing for the expenditure of funds therefore; and providing an effective date (Bid 5647- awarded to the lowest responsible bidder meeting specifications, James Wood Autopark in the three (3) year not -to- exceed amount of $3,079,769). BID INFORMATION This bid is to establish an annual supply agreement for the purchase of light duty vehicles for various City Departments. A list of the vehicles is shown on the attached Bid Tabulation - Exhibit 1. The term of the contract will be for twelve (12) months, with two (2) optional annual renewals. Future year pricing is allowed under the contract to increase at the same rate as the annual manufacturers' published price list. For example if the manufacturers' published price list on a specific model truck increases by 3.0 %, then the bid price will increase by 3.0 %. Standard City of Denton purchasing procedures were utilized. Bid notices were advertised in the local paper, posted on the internet, and emailed to five (5) prospective bidders. Bids for the vehicles were opened on October 16, 2014. A total of one (1) response meeting specifications was received. The City had specified that seven (7) additional value -add services be required with the purchase of these vehicles. These services will result in overall cost savings to the City of Denton with regards to the maintenance of the vehicle thereby, extending its useful life. James Wood Autopark offered these services at no additional cost. The estimated benefit of these services is valued at $1884 per vehicle, during the ownership period of the vehicle. Additionally, this contract will allow the Fleet Department to notify James Wood Autopark of planned purchases in advance, which will expedite and significantly reduce vehicle delivery lead times. Staff compared bid prices and value -added service costs to cooperative pricing contracts. The cooperative contract pricing was similar but did not offer the value added services at no additional cost. Therefore, James Wood Autopark bid pricing was determined to be the best value for the City. Purchases for Fiscal year 2014 -15 are estimated at $800,000 for thirty (30) vehicles. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends award to James Wood Autopark in the three (3) year amount not -to- exceed $3,079,769. City of Denton Page 1 of 2 Printed on 11/26/2014 File M ID 14 -0727, Version: 1 PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS James Wood Autopark Denton, TX ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT The purchase and delivery of the vehicles will occur within 90 days of issuance of a purchase order.

BACKGROUND The Children's Advocacy Center for Denton County ( CACDC) is a non - profit agency that assists the Denton Police Department with the investigation and prosecution of child abuse cases in Denton County. CACDC uses a team approach to consolidate law enforcement, Child Protective Services, prosecutors, therapists and volunteers in one location which helps to minimize the trauma experienced by victims of child abuse. CACDC also provides free counseling services to abused children and their family members. This collaborative approach has become the gold standard for investigating child abuse. The CACDC does not bill law enforcement for its services, but rather makes an annual request that participating municipalities consider allocating their "fair share" of funding based on the percentage of CACDC services received. On September 16, 2014, as part of the 2014 -15 budget process, the Denton City Council formally approved an allocation of $94,365 which was an amount equal to the "fair share" calculation provided by CACDC for fiscal year 2014 -15. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that Council approve the ordinance as written. PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (Council, Boards, Commissions) On September 16, 2014 City Council formally approved an allocation of $94,365 as part of the 2014 -15 budget process. FISCAL INFORMATION Subject to this Agreement the funds were allocated as part of the fiscal year 2014 -15 budget process. The funds City of Denton Page 1 of 2 Printed on 11/26/2014 File M ID 14 -0762, Version: 1 will continue to be administered by the Denton Police Department.

FILE INFORMATION The TASER International Digital Evidence Solution consists of AXON Flex body -worn cameras, evidence transfer manager (ETM), accessories, digital evidence management software, data storage, warranty and implementation. This body -worn camera system is compatible with existing TASER technology and Evidence.com storage solution that is currently being utilized by the Police Department. The system meets the Police Department's need to allow officers the ability to record, manage and store digital recordings in the already existing Evidence.com storage. The ETM module allows automatic file uploading and simultaneous recharging of body cameras. Also, the Police Department will be provided upgraded equipment at no additional cost to ensure the City of Denton has the most up -to -date technology. Police Department staff is recommending a five year contract in order to provide the equipment to all officers by purchasing it in a series of installments (Exhibit 1). The TASER International Digital Evidence Solution is listed on the State of Texas Smart Buy Cooperative Purchasing Contract with the same pricing as the attached quote (Exhibit 2) from TASER International Inc. ( TASER). The Smart Buy Program does charge a 1.5% processing fee, therefore staff has determined that a direct purchase from TASER is the best value for the City. The following law enforcement agencies currently use the TASER International Inc body -worn camera system: Fort Worth PD, Mesa PD, Albuquerque PD, Salt Lake City PD, Surprise PD, and Rialto PD. The Technology Services department could not identify any vendors within the city limits that could provide this solution. TASER International, Inc. is the sole - source vendor for AXON Flex body -worn cameras and associated modules (Exhibit 2). Section 252.022 of the Local Government Code provides that procurement of items that are only available from one source, do not have to be competitively bid. City of Denton Page 1 of 2 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: ID 14 -0771, Version: 1 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends awarding the purchase of the TASER International Digital Evidence Solution to TASER International, Inc. in the five (5) year not -to- exceed amount of $448,873. This amount consists of the first year cost of $98,905 with the cost for years two (2) through five (2) estimated to be $87,492. The $87,492 amount includes a 15% contingency for any needed system expansions. PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS TASER International, Inc.

Brock, Procurement Manage' From: Lt. Chris Summitt Date: November 20, 2014 Re: Taser Body -Worn Camera System and Associated Modules Cc: Chief Howell Capt. Fletcher Elton, The Denton Police Department assessed multiple options for body cameras. We did trial performances of VieVue, Reveal, Wolfcom, and Taser brand of equipment. We attended a product demonstration from L3. We made multiple attempts to contact Panasonic without a call back. We are recommending the Taser Body -Worn Camera System and Associated Modules as this product is the only product available in the marketplace that offers proprietary solutions that are necessary to obtaining, and retaining vital video evidence, as detailed below: • Taser was the only product that offered a back office digital evidence manager hosted in a cloud server • Taser was the only product that offered buffered recording which allows the camera to capture the 30 seconds prior to its activation • Taser was the only product to offer a refresh program which will replace all camera systems 3 times during the contract with the most current technology available • Taser was the only vendor willing to provide the initial camera hardware free of charge in exchange for working and non - working obsolete Taser weapon camera systems • The department has enjoyed a good relationship with Taser International for more than 10 years • The department is already using a scaled down version of the back office evidence manager for video evidence generated by the weapon cameras In accordance with the statutory provisions allowed within Texas Local Government Code 252.022, providing exemption from competitive procurement, the Denton Police Department requests approval of this sole- source determination.

The City may withhold or set off the entire payment or part of any payment otherwise due the Contractor to such extent as may be necessary on account of: i. delivery of defective or non - conforming deliverables by the Contractor; ii. third party claims, which are not covered by the insurance which the Contractor is required to provide, are filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims; iii. failure of the Contractor to pay Subcontractors, or for labor, materials or equipment; iv. damage to the property of the City or the City's agents, employees or contractors, which is not covered by insurance required to be provided by the Contractor; v. reasonable evidence that the Contractor's obligations will not be completed within the time specified in the Contract, and that the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay; vi. failure of the Contractor to submit proper invoices with purchase order number, with all required attachments and supporting documentation; or vii. failure of the Contractor to comply with any material provision of the Contract Documents. E. Notice is hereby given that any awarded Contractor who is in arrears to the City for delinquent taxes, the City may offset indebtedness owed the City through payment withholding. F. Payment will be made by check unless the parties mutually agree to payment by credit card or electronic transfer of funds.

The awarding or continuation of this contract is dependent upon the availability of funding. The City's payment obligations are payable only and solely from funds Appropriated and available for this contract. The absence of Appropriated or other lawfully available funds shall render the Contract null and void to the extent funds are not Appropriated or available and any deliverables delivered but unpaid shall be returned to the Contractor. The City shall provide the Contractor written notice of the failure of the City to make an adequate Appropriation for any fiscal year to pay the amounts due under the Contract, or the reduction of any Appropriation to an amount insufficient to permit the City to pay its obligations under the Contract.

All books and records will be made available within a 50 mile radius of the City of Denton. The cost of the audit will be borne by the City unless the audit reveals an overpayment of 1 % or greater. If an overpayment of 1 % or greater occurs, the reasonable cost of the audit, including any travel costs, must be borne by the Contractor which must be payable within five (5) business days of receipt of an invoice. B. Failure to comply with the provisions of this section shall be a material breach of the Contract and shall constitute, in the City's sole discretion, grounds for termination thereof.

The Contractor shall not initially employ any Subcontractor except as provided in the Contractor's Plan. The Contractor shall not substitute any Subcontractor identified in the Plan, unless the substitute has been accepted by the City in writing. No acceptance by the City of any Subcontractor shall constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies of the City with respect to defective deliverables provided by a Subcontractor. If a Plan has been approved, the Contractor is additionally required to submit a monthly Subcontract Awards and Expenditures Report to the Procurement Manager, no later than the tenth calendar day of each month. B. Work performed for the Contractor by a Subcontractor shall be pursuant to a written contract between the Contractor and Subcontractor.

C. The Contractor shall be fully responsible to the City for all acts and omissions of the Subcontractors just as the Contractor is responsible for the Contractor's own acts and omissions. Nothing in the Contract shall create for the benefit of any such Subcontractor any contractual relationship between the City and any such Subcontractor, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the City to pay or to see to the payment of any moneys due any such Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law. D. The Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor its appropriate share of payments made to the Contractor not later than ten (l 0) calendar days after receipt of payment from the City. 9.

If the Contractor is unable or unwilling to perform its services in accordance with the above standard as required by the City, then in addition to any other available remedy, the City may reduce the amount of services it may be required to purchase under the Contract from the Contractor, and purchase conforming services from other sources. In such event, the Contractor shall pay to the City upon demand the increased cost, if any, incurred by the City to procure such services from another source. 11. ACCEPTANCE OF INCOMPLETE OR NON - CONFORMING DELIVERABLES: 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. The Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to the City's evaluation of and determination to accept such defective or non - conforming deliverables. If any such acceptance occurs prior to final payment, the City may deduct such amounts as are necessary to compensate the City for the diminished value of the defective or non - conforming deliverables. If the acceptance occurs after final payment, such amount will be refunded to the City by the Contractor. 12. RIGHT TO ASSURANCE: Whenever one party to the Contract in good faith has reason to question the other party's intent to perform, demand may be made to the other party for written assurance of the intent to perform. In the event that no assurance is given within the time specified after demand is made, the demanding party may treat this failure as an anticipatory repudiation of the Contract. 13. STOP WORK NOTICE: The City may issue an immediate Stop Work Notice in the event the Contractor is observed performing in a manner that is in violation of Federal, State, or local guidelines, or in a manner that is determined by the City to be unsafe to either life or property.

TERMINATION FOR CAUSE: In the event of a default by the Contractor, the City shall have the right to terminate the Contract for cause, by written notice effective ten (10) calendar days, unless otherwise specified, after the date of such notice, unless the Contractor, within such ten (10) day period, cures such default, or provides evidence sufficient to prove to the City's reasonable satisfaction that such default does not, in fact, exist. In addition to any other remedy available under law or in equity, the City shall be entitled to recover all actual damages, costs, losses and expenses, incurred by the City as a result of the Contractor's default, including, without limitation, cost of cover, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, and prejudgment and post judgment interest at the maximum lawful rate.

FRAUD: Fraudulent statements by the Contractor on any Offer or in any report or deliverable required to be submitted by the Contractor to the City shall be grounds for the termination of the Contract for cause by the City and may result in legal action. 18. DELAYS: 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. 19.

Whenever a term defined by the Uniform Commercial Code, as enacted by the State of Texas, is used in the Contract, the UCC definition shall control, unless otherwise defined in the Contract. 37. DISPUTE RESOLUTION: A. If a dispute arises out of or relates to the Contract, or the breach thereof, the parties agree to negotiate prior to prosecuting a suit for damages. However, this section does not prohibit the filing of a lawsuit to toll the running of a statute of limitations or to seek injunctive relief. Either party may make a written request for a meeting between representatives of each party within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt of the request or such later period as agreed by the parties. Each party shall include, at a minimum, one (1) senior level individual with decision - making authority regarding the dispute. The purpose of this and any subsequent meeting is to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the dispute. If, within thirty (30) calendar days after such meeting, the parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute, they will proceed directly to mediation as described below. Negotiation may be waived by a written agreement signed by both parties, in which event the parties may proceed directly to mediation as described below. B. If the efforts to resolve the dispute through negotiation fail, or the parties waive the negotiation process, the parties may select, within thirty (30) calendar days, a mediator trained in mediation skills to assist with resolution of the dispute. Should they choose this option; the City and the Contractor agree to act in good faith in the selection of the mediator and to give consideration to qualified individuals nominated to act as mediator. Nothing in the Contract prevents the parties from relying on the skills of a person who is trained in the subject matter of the dispute or a contract interpretation expert.

City of Denton Page 1 of 1 Printed on 11/26/2014 CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES October 6, 2014 After determining that a quorum was present, the City Council convened in a Work Session on Monday, October 6, 2014 at 11:30 a.m. in the Council Work Session Room at City Hall. PRESENT: Mayor Pro Tern Engelbrecht, Council Member Gregory, Council Member Hawkins, Council Member Johnson, Council Member Roden, Council Member Ryan, and Mayor Watts. ABSENT: None. A. ID 14 -0604 Receive a report, hold a discussion and give staff direction regarding a proposed convention center. Jon Fortune, Assistant City Manager, stated this was a status report on some of the key items of the project and to discuss next steps and critical dates. Tim O'Reilly, representing O'Reilly Hospitality Management (OHPD) and Shannon Earls, representing Clark Construction Company were present at the meeting. The last action taken by Council was the approval of the project plan and financing plan which dictated how the TIRZ revenue would be spent. Staff had presented the project update to the DISD and provided them a draft participation agreement should they choose to participate in the project. The DISD was scheduled to consider the topic on October 14th with possible action on the agreement. DISD participation was conditioned on the participation not having an adverse action on their State funding formula. If the State ever determined that such an agreement had an adverse effect on the funding formula, the DISD would be able to cancel participation. He was scheduled to present the agreement to the County the next day. There were no participation conditions similar to the DISD on the County. The County was scheduled to give direction tomorrow with action on October 14tH Council Member Hawkins questioned what kind of situation would prompt the State to make such a decision. Fortune stated that the District could not participate on the Operation and Maintenance side of the financing as that would give the appearance of giving money to another taxing entity. That restriction did not exist on the Interest and Sinking fund side. Mayor Watts stated that it would be hard to agree with that term in the participation agreement that could opt out if something happened. If the DISD would opt out there would be a deficit of the debt payment and someone would have to make that up. If that possibility existed, it needed to specify that in the contract. Council Member Roden asked what were some of the issues /concerns expressed by the DISD regarding Fortune's presentation. Fortune stated that there were mixed comments and conversations regarding the role of the DISD in such a project. There was some strong support to partner with the City to advance the project forward as it would be good for both entities. The tone of the questions indicated that there still some mechanical issues. Fortune stated that in terms of the construction and construction elements, the original project cost was several years old. The bids received for the project were much higher than anticipated and staff was worked on making the best uses of the dollars available. The Council discussed the City of Denton City Council Minutes October 6, 2014 Page 2 anticipated total budget of $25 million and concern was expressed that further reductions could change the nature of the building in such a manner that it no longer met the City's long -term objective for the facility. Staff was directed to obtain final pricing on the reduced design configuration, knowing that the final price would be closer to $28 million as long as OHPD continued to support the rent structure of the Master Development Agreement at the higher figure. Council Member Ryan stated that it appeared that the funding for furniture /fixtures had dropped again. Fortune stated that the movable partitions that currently were listed as furniture and fixtures were moved into construction costs and were treated as part of the building. Council Member Ryan questioned where the project manager was included in the contract. Fortune stated that was in a separate contract with its own funding and was not included in the funding scenario. That was not included in the bond sale dollars. Council Member Johnson stated that the building construction estimate was working on a certain percent of drawings and questioned if Council said to proceed would that be the maximum contact price. Fortune stated correct that when the contract was approved it provided for a maximum guaranteed price. The prices quoted in June were good for 180 days which was the end of December. The period was reaching a point that the pricing might not hold after December 30a' and critical dates needed to be reached in order to keep the prices. Council Member Johnson stated that the maximum price was based on 30% complete drawings but that finish items still needed to be selected and questioned if someone from city side would be overseeing that those items remained in line with the budget. Fortune stated that the project manager would be responsible for that. Council Member Roden asked if the prices presented were inflated due to the long range time frame to hold the prices. Fortune stated that the prices were not inflated but represented an estimate to make sure that Clark met required obligations. Council Member Roden asked if there was any way to redefine the costs at this point. Fortune stated no. He indicated that staff was expecting feedback for the DISD and County by this week and that the project was nearing the end of the feasibility period which included approving the project and moving ahead to sell the bonds. The bond sale would probably be done at the November lla' meeting with November lla' to December being the financing viability period. The bonds would be sold on December 16a'. At that time, the design would have to be in place in order to issue the grading permit to start project before the end of the year. Timing was getting critical to do the Intent to Sell on November 1 lth. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 6, 2014 Page 3 Mayor Watts asked about the definition of the development costs. Fortune stated it was not possible to make expenses at this time and in the future issue bonds to reimburse those funds. The dollars in the contract needed to be those specifically tied to the design, final design and construction. The other dollars were not intended to be in that. Mayor Watts asked about the construction pricing process. Earls stated that the original pricing was submitted in June and locked those prices for 180 days. Through the process, different types of bids such as electrical, plumbing, etc. were refined. He had a fixed lump sum for the company but the subcontractors might be different. Certain components would be outstanding such as finish components. Mayor Watts asked about the bids because the convention center had changed from the original presentation, based on the high price for the original proposal for the convention center. Earls stated that it was his interpretation that was it was their risk to maintain the costs for 180 days even with an escalating market on materials. Council Member Roden questioned at what point in the changing of a concept would it be that it was no longer the original concept with a need to start over. Fortune stated that one aspect was capacity. The original design, although a three story facility, could accommodate 750 people and 2,000 for banquet facility seating. When the Master Development Agreement process was started it was contemplated that there might be some changes in the pricing. The building changed but the capacity had not changed that much. The space from the three story preserved the meeting capacity. In this case, it did not change beyond the original scope of the agreement as the agreement had language regarding capacity and not building size. Council Member Roden asked whether State law or city policy could trigger new bids. City Attorney Burgess stated that this was not a bid process which had less flexibility than the request for proposal which was used. The City could write in requests for flexibility with the request for proposal to have movement in the agreement. Mayor Watts stated that the agreement stated that before the end of the feasibility period the developer would provide a loan commitment letter and a hotel budget. He stated that the City Manager had asked him what it would take for him to support the project. His concern was the data and the process of the accumulation of the data. He felt there were unanswered questions. The size of the banquet room was very important to accommodate 1800 - 2000 people and he was not sure that was still the goal. He did not want to rush into the project and was concerned about reverse engineering the entire project and was not getting a better comfort level but rather a less comfort level. Fortune stated that the construction estimate of $25 million had been used for some time and was discussed even when preparing the Master Development Agreement. As far as the room size, the City of Denton City Council Minutes October 6, 2014 Page 4 Mayor was correct that it was a large room but that included the break out space with other configurations of the room to be used. This would be a combination of events and not just one large 1800 event. The room was being designed for the future for increase capacity. Council Member Engelbrecht did not feel that the larger numbers were out of line. What was important was the meeting space and banquet room. The convention space was important and that was the breakout rooms not just the larger space. Space was needed for breakout rooms for conventions; not the entire room for one convention. The small rooms were critical for the convention center. Council Member Hawkins stated that he was not concerned with the size of the room in terms of trade shows with booths, etc. He wanted a room that could invite a lot of trade shows and conventions. Council Member Gregory stated that he wanted a room that could handle a number of events at the same time. There had been events in the past that left Denton due to the lack of meeting space to handle them. He did not feel rushed in the process but rather that it had taken a long time to get to where they currently were. It was time to make a decision on the project or discontinue it. Tim O'Reilly stated that it was helpful to hear the Council comments as he had conversations with his family and team on the other side with the hotel project. In regards to the pricing of the project, they had been careful on the pricing of the project from the beginning. In the end, it would be his group responsible for the entire amount of the money. The rent payment was his family responsibility to make as well as the hotel payment. He reviewed the steps involved in getting to the Master Development Agreement. The bond sale would be a $28 million sale which they agreed to which increased their risk but were acceptable to do. The extra would be contingency for the project. Council Member Johnson stated that this was a unique situation in that the City would be partners with the O'Reilly family. The City was pledging HOT funds etc. to the debt and if not O'Reilly would make up difference. He questioned how different that was to the City pledging a 380 agreement and whether the City could pledge those funds to O'Reilly and let them own it. Given that the agreement had to be changed anyway, he questioned if O'Reilly would be interested in doing a 380 agreement. O'Reilly stated that three years ago they would have entertained that but at this point with the end of year deadline for construction costs and interest rate for financing it would be difficult. They had been down this road for a long time and he was not sure they were interested in that at this point in time. Council Member Johnson stated that he was not having anyone come to him saying this was a good deal. A decision had be to made on whether the City was willing to make a bet that O'Reilly Hospitality could book the hotel and fill it and make enough to pay off the debt. O'Reilly stated when talking to the public that the idea of risk versus reward was also considered. The risk to O'Reilly was very small and he felt that the risk to the City was non- City of Denton City Council Minutes October 6, 2014 Page 5 existent. This was a good place to a bet on. He could bring his whole team here to discuss the project and the result would be the same. The City was doing due diligence for the project. Council Member Ryan stated that at the February 18a' meeting it was discussed about competing with Frisco, etc. and he questioned O'Reilly if the project still had a wow factor with the smaller size. O'Reilly felt that the location was a wow factor in addition to the green roof and plaza area in hotel. This was still the best project in the whole DFW area. Council Member Ryan stated that prior to the agreement it was mentioned if the DISD and County did not participate in a proper level, O'Reilly would back off. O'Reilly stated that was part of the budget and they proceeded in good faith and felt that the overwhelming positives would provide a support that the small contribution from them. Members of his family would have to make the decision on whether to stay with the project if there was no participation by the DISD or the County. He hoped they would lend their support as it would greatly benefit them. Mayor Watts stated that the TIRZ within the DISD participation agreement stated that if funding affected their funding, the DISD could opt out of the TIRZ midstream. Then O'Reilly could make an election on whether to move forward. He questioned if the proforma numbers had been run if the DISD and County did not participate and what that would do to the debt service. He asked O'Reilly to address the ability to put up debt up if the DISD were to opt out midstream. O'Reilly stated that they had those conversations with staff. He felt that was an insignificant risk that projects already started would not be grandfather by the State if the law changed. Mayor Watts stated that he needed to see the hotel budget and the letter of commitment at the end of the feasibility period. He questioned how close they were to getting that letter. O'Reilly stated that the lender had already looked at the letter, with one indicating that if there was a default they could step into the shoes of the defaulter. At this point, it was a matter of asking for it. Council Member Gregory asked Kim Phillips, Denton Convention and Visitors Bureau, to speak on convention center traffic, spending, and formulas for looking at the convention industry. Council Member Roden asked Phillips to address from her standpoint, whether the one story building would be a hard sale for rooms. Phillips felt that the new building would be a draw and the City would be an important element Council Member Gregory stated that much of the conversation had been about the building. There should also be discussion on how much a person would spend outside a convention. He felt it would be helpful to have in year one that there would be x number of visitors to City and would spend x dollars, the second year x number of visitors and x amount spent in the City. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 6, 2014 Page 6 Fortune stated that staff had provided that information and was posted on the website and talked about the impact of dollars spent in the community. Council Member Engelbrecht asked about the impact on TWU and UNT. Fortune stated that was one reason UNT wanted to partner with the project as it would help heighten the campus and what UNT could offer. Phillips stated that they had extensive discussions with both schools. TWU recently had a bid for the ability to host a gymnastics tournament but were cut because their facilities were always booked. That activity could have been held in the proposed convention center. Council Member Ryan questioned the outside projected generated revenue. Fortune stated that the HOT funds were modeled out to include the new project revenue associated with the convention center plus additional revenue from existing tax bases. Council Member Gregory stated that the anticipated money from the HOT fund was generated because of the convention center and was not taking money from the current budget. It would be money generated from the hotel and spill over from convention activities. Council Member Roden stated that there was a need to look at the global economic development impact, especially on the other side of the highway. Fortune stated that the long term plans of UNT were for that to be a mixed use development. Mayor Watts stated that he would like a briefing on that issue from the UNT. 2.

Council Member Johnson asked new for a discussion on what could be done regarding the construction project on Hickory Street as the businesses in the area were suffering during the construction. With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 1:55 p.m. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 6, 2014 Page 7 CHRIS WATTS MAYOR CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS JENNIFER WALTERS CITY SECRETARY CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES October 7, 2014 After determining that a quorum was present, the City Council convened in a Work Session on Tuesday, October 7, 2014 at 3:00 p.m. in the Council Work Session Room at City Hall. PRESENT: Mayor Pro Tern Engelbrecht, Council Member Gregory, Council Member Johnson, Council Member Roden, Council Member Ryan, and Mayor Watts. ABSENT: Council Member Hawkins. 1. Citizen Comments on Consent Agenda Items There were no comments from citizens on this item. 2. Requests for clarification of agenda items listed on the agenda for October 7, 2014. Council Member Gregory asked about Consent Agenda Item G and if there were any Denton vendors on the list. Chuck Springer, Director of Finance, stated that he would have to check but that the contract was through a State contract. Council Member Gregory asked about Consent Agenda Item F and whether there were any plans to move from overhead lines to underground lines. Brent Heath, Executive Manager of Energy Delivery, stated that they were doing that in the Sourthridge area at this time. There was also money budgeted to convert from overhead to underground in the Downtown area. Council Member Gregory asked about older neighborhoods. Heath stated that 57% of the distribution system was already underground. Council Member Gregory asked if conditions made it prohibitive to do in older homes. Heath stated that if a customer wanted to pay the differential to his home it could be done. Council Member Gregory asked about Consent Agenda Item K and if a request for proposal was done. Emerson Vorel, Director of Parks and Recreation, stated that a request for proposal was done and this was the firm chosen. Council Member Roden stated that due to the success of the community and events being held in the community that the pace for noise variances was increasing. He questioned if there was a policy for the number of these the City was willing to tolerate in a given year. Howard Martin, Acting City Manager, stated that the requests were taken as they were received. There was no set policy that limited the number in a particular year. Council Member Roden felt that it might be a good topic for discussion. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 7, 2014 Page 2 Council Member Gregory stated that as the Downtown continued to develop with live music in restaurants, etc. a review of the sound ordinance in general and specifically as it related to the Downtown area might be needed. He felt that another concern to consider in a Work Session was a follow up on how many special events the City could accommodate in terms of overtime for police and fire and how thin was staff was being stretched in terms of public safety issues. Mayor Watts suggested including a protocol for scheduling as well as the noise level. He asked about Consent Agenda Item N concerning the contract for professional legal services. He questioned if this agreement would cover Jim Morris and Terry Morgan. City Attorney Burgess that Mr. Morris and Mr. Morgan had a contract between the two of them and this would cover both of them. Mayor Watts questioned Consent Agenda Item H in regards to the smart meters in terms of how many were left to be converted. Heath stated that there were 1,700 more to do which would complete the project. Council Member Watts asked to have an Informal Staff Report to reevaluate whether or not to have a connect charge now that the meters could be turn on without having to go to the residences. 3. Work Session Reports A. SI14 -0008 Receive a report, hold a discussion, and give staff direction regarding a City of Denton Code of Ordinances amendment and Denton Development Code amendment for the sale of all alcohol within the City's corporate limits. Brian Langley, Director of Planning and Development, stated that staff was requesting direction on Denton Development Code and Code of Ordinances amendments relating to businesses that would no longer operate as a private club and to process a Code of Ordinances amendment for distance regulations between alcohol sales and established TABC protected uses such as churches, public or private schools and public hospitals. If the local option election passes in November, the sale of all alcoholic beverages within corporate the corporate limits of the City of Denton would be permitted subject to the TABC requirements and any additional regulations adopted by the City. The TABC regulated all phases of the alcoholic beverage industry in Texas and exclusively governed the regulation of alcoholic beverages. Their regulations indicated that a city could not impose stricter standards on premises or businesses required to have a license or permit under their code than were imposed on similar premises or businesses that were not required to have such a license or permit. If the local option passed, private clubs would not have to retain their private club license from the TABC. A Denton Development Code amendment would be needed to permit bars as part of the use table. Package alcohol or liquor stores would be permitted in Denton as retail sales and services within the commercial land use category. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 7, 2014 Page 3 One question to consider was how to treat package liquor stores in terms of the Development code requirements. Package liquor stores would be considered retail uses and were allowed in the same zoning districts as a grocery or convenience store. Most existing retailers (grocery or convenience stores) may not have an interest in adding liquor sales because of the regulations imposed by the TABC Package Liquor Store License such as employees over 21 and limited hours. Cities could not expressly treat package alcohol sales differently than any other retail operation and package alcohol sales would be permitted where general retail was permitted. Council Member Roden questioned why the City would have to follow the TABC code and not make distinctions within the retail code that would not violate the statute. City Attorney Burgess stated that there were interpretative cases regarding the regulations that indicated that it would not just be the statute but also other cases to take into consideration. Council Member Engelbrecht questioned the issue of allowable uses. If a business wanted to sell hard liquor would the hours of operation of the business be limited or the sale of the product limited. City Attorney Burgess stated that it was her understanding that the hours were strictly controlled by TABC. Lockley continued that the TABC did allow a city to prohibit the sale of alcohol in residential areas by Charter which would require a Charter amendment. The amendment could prohibit the sale within 300 feet of a church, public or private school, or public hospital by ordinance. Mayor Watts questioned if the Local Option election was passed the City could regulate more in terms of distance. Council Member Ryan stated that if an individual came into a beer /wine store and purchased a glass of wine or a beer, he could walk out with it but that could not be done in a private club if it was selling hard liquor. Mayor Watts requested an Informal Staff Report on statutory regulations that currently were in place and what would be different if the Local Option election passed. Council Member Gregory stated that the distance requirements focused on package sales as opposed distance requirements for bars /clubs. He questioned that if other retail sales were not allowed in residential areas would a charter amendment still be needed. Lockley stated that there was a mixed use category that would allow residential dwellings in these types of commercial areas. Other areas could not have alcohol sales in residential areas. If the goal was to protect existing single family neighborhoods from these types of businesses, a charter amendment would be needed for a separation of the alcohol sales. Council Member Gregory questioned if the goal would be to not allow sales of package liquor other than in downtown. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 7, 2014 Page 4 Lockley stated no. He reviewed what other cities did in terms of the sale of package alcohol. He stated that the approval process would be to adopt a Code of Ordinances amendment for distance regulations between alcohol sales and established TACB protected uses. A public hearing could be held on November 18th. A Denton Development Code amendment would be needed to address former private clubs. For that amendment, a Planning and Zoning Commission work session could be held on October 22nd with a public hearing on November 5th. Council would then hold a public hearing on December 3rd Mayor Watts stated that the consensus of the Council was to follow the direction suggested by staff. Following the completion of the Work Session, the City Council convene in a Closed Meeting at 3:55 p.m. to consider the specific items listed below under the Closed Meeting section of this agenda. 1.

With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:06 p.m. CHRIS WATTS MAYOR CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS JENNIFER WALTERS CITY SECRETARY CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES October 14, 2014 After determining that a quorum was present, the City Council convened in a Work Session on Tuesday, October 14, 2014 at 1:40 p.m. in the Council Work Session Room at City Hall. PRESENT: Mayor Pro Tern Engelbrecht, Council Member Gregory, Council Member Hawkins, Council Member Roden, and Council Member Ryan ABSENT: Mayor Chris Watts, Council Member Johnson Mayor Pro Tern Engelbrecht stated that the Council would consider Item 2B under the Work Session: 2. Work Session Reports B. ID 14 -0626 Receive a report, hold a discussion, and give staff direction regarding innovation districts and a technology recruitment initiative for Denton. Aimee Bissett, Director of Economic Development, stated that the Economic Development Department had been working on developing new recruitment strategies and programs. One of those initiatives was recruitment of hi -tech and emerging technology companies, and the support of entrepreneurship and innovation. She stated that this program was funded in the 2014 -15 fiscal year. Bissett stated that the objectives of such an initiative would include creating knowledge- based, high - paying jobs; employing our college graduates in order to keep them living and working in Denton; supporting entrepreneurship and innovation; recruiting, creating and retaining successful innovative businesses; diversifying and strengthening our tax base; increasing the average household income in Denton; encouraging infill development and redevelopment; creating substantial investment in Denton businesses; developing a workforce that was agile, technologically advanced, and employable; and fostering technology solutions to address community -wide needs. Bissett stated that a core group of community stakeholders had been meeting to explore partnership opportunities and the creation of a program to fill this specific need in Denton. This group had included representatives from UNT, the City of Denton, TechMill (a local nonprofit organization), the DEC (Dallas Entrepreneur Center) and a variety of interested community members and technology -based business representatives. Bissett stated that the Economic Development Partnership Board had requested that the City Council receive an update on the progression of those discussions and receive some information about innovation districts and a technology recruitment initiative for Denton that was presented by Rob Justice at their September meeting. Bissett introduced Rob Justice, Director of Global Innovation for Cisco Systems. Justice presented the concept, CoDenton— the way technology was intersecting with Denton. Justice stated that Denton had the highest density of tech savvy future leaders in Texas — there were 27,000 in K -12, 60,000 were in higher education, and the median age was 26.2. He stated that Denton was in a natural leadership position with accelerated growth, accessible and aligned City of Denton City Council Minutes October 14, 2014 Page 2 leadership, and a vision for responsible growth. He stated that Denton had a strong ability to attract talent and investment with a vibrant/historic downtown, a low cost of living, metroplex and recreational proximity, and culture and vibe. Council Member Johnson arrived at the meeting. Justice stated that the innovation district was creating a community of innovation where people and ideas were connected. Justice stated that innovations districts further the ability of cities and metropolitan areas to grow jobs in ways that both align with disruptive forces in the economy and leverage their distinct economic position. Innovation districts empower entrepreneurs as a key vehicle for economic growth and job creation. Innovation districts could grow better and more accessible jobs at a time of rising poverty and social inequality. A substantial number of emerging innovation districts were close to low- and moderate - income neighborhoods, offering the prospect of expanding employment and educational opportunities for disadvantaged populations. Innovation districts could reduce carbon emissions and drive denser residential and employment patterns at a time of growing concern with environmentally unsustainable development. Innovation districts could help cities and metropolitan areas raise revenues and repair their balance sheets at a time when federal resources were diminishing and many state governments were adrift. Justice stated that implementation strategies included building a collaborative leadership network in which the Council played a critical role; setting a vision for growth; pursuing talent and technology; promoting inclusive growth by stimulating local entrepreneurship, revitalizing neighborhoods and education; and enhancing access to capital by redeploying and leveraging local capital and providing a roadmap for broader private, civic and public sector investment. Council Member Roden stated that there was potential for a city of our size to lead the way in uncharted territory. Mayor Pro Tem Engelbrecht stated that he had a concern for what the next big vision would be for Denton. Roden stated that when the City started figuring out how to implement this there would always be obstacles. Bissett stated that she would bring the Council more information at next week's Council meeting. Following the completion of Item 2.B., the City Council convened into a closed meeting at 2:35 p.m. to consider the following. 1. Closed Meeting: A. ID 14 -0563 Consultation with Attorneys — Under Texas Government Code, Section 551.071. Consult with and provide direction to City's attorneys regarding legal issues and strategies associated with Gas Well Ordinance regulation of gas well drilling and production within the City Limits and the extraterritorial jurisdiction, including: City of Denton City Council Minutes October 14, 2014 Page 3 Constitutional limitations, statutory limitations upon municipal regulatory authority; statutory preemption and vested rights; impacts of federal and state law and regulations; impacts of gas well drilling upon protected uses and vice - versa; moratorium on drilling and production; other concerns about municipal regulatory authority or matters relating to enforcement of the Gas Well Ordinance; settlement matters concerning gas well drilling in the City; surface development issues involving surface and mineral estates; and legal matters associated with a citizen's initiative regarding hydraulic fracturing where a public discussion of these legal matters would conflict with the duty of the City's attorneys under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct of the State Bar of Texas. Mayor Watts arrived at the meeting. B. ID 14 -0662 Consultation with Attorneys — Under Texas Government Code, Section 551.071. Consult with and provide direction to City's attorneys regarding legal issues associated with the proposed Convention Center project, including Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) participation agreements and other legal documents associated with the project, where a public discussion of these legal matters would conflict with the duty of the City's attorneys under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct of the State Bar of Texas. The Closed Meeting adjourned at 7:55 p.m. Following the completion of the Closed Meeting, the City Council convened in a Work Session at 7:55 p.m. to consider the following items: 2. Work Session Reports A. ID 14 -0616 Hold a discussion and provide staff direction with regard to possible amendments to the City Council Rules of Procedure and the annual meeting schedule for the City Council of the City of Denton. Item 2.A. will be re- scheduled to another meeting date. C. ID 14 -0653 Receive a report, hold a discussion and give staff direction regarding the Hickory Street project. John Davis, Director of Engineering, updated the Council on the Hickory Street improvements project. Construction began on June 23, 2014 with completion of the project anticipated for February 2015. Davis stated that construction of the Williams Trade Center Parking Lots was conducted as Phase 1 in order to provide parking for businesses along the project during construction. For construction of Phase 3A (Russell to Bell), it was decided to close this segment of the street in order to construct and re -open it much faster with only three businesses near the corner of the closure being slightly affected. Traffic flow was maintained for the remainder of the street through Russell and Industrial Streets. The travel lanes for this segment were re- opened to traffic on October 7, 2014. Construction of underground storm drainage from Russell to west of Industrial would be constructed as Phase 4A during October 13 - 22, 2014, in order to construct the remainder of the City of Denton City Council Minutes October 14, 2014 Page 4 major underground facilities and identify any additional underground conflicts. The area would be temporarily paved until the final parking and sidewalk construction was conducted as Phase 6 during January 27 - February 28, 2015. Phases 4B and 6 would be constructed in segments in order to maintain access to businesses along the Phases. Phase 5 (street segment area adjacent to Locust Street and the Courthouse Square) would be started after the holiday season. This Phase was scheduled for construction January 5 — January 27, 2015. Davis stated that Engineering staff have tried to stay in communications with businesses in the area by using the City's website and social media to provide updates on the construction work. Staff has conducted periodic meetings with property owners to hear concerns they might have and provide new updates. Julie Glover, Economic Development Program Administrator, stated that Economic Development had been working with the Convention and Visitors Bureau for several months on a campaign to assist businesses in this area and minimize impact on their sales. They had launched an app, "Dig Little d ", which showed where public parking was located, updates on construction and Daily Deals. Glover stated that she was working with a University of North Texas Public Relations class, which was designing a campaign aimed at relieving customers' apprehensions about traveling to and from the construction area. Directional signage to the Williams Trade Center Parking Lots for "free parking" and informational signage to advise citizens that "Hickory Street businesses are open" were being developed for installation in the near future. The Council discussed whether to amend the construction contract to pay for two work shifts a day to speed up the project. The option would cost about $400,000 and shave about four weeks. Instead of finishing at the end of February, the project could be finished in January. Staff cautioned the Council that the additional shift could be noisy for downtown residents and could also inconvenience evening and night customers. Since the additional cost and inconvenience wouldn't get the project done before the holiday shopping, the Council decided the extra cost wouldn't be a good trade -off. Staff also stated that they could use a high- early- strength concrete which would shorten the concrete curing time and allow pedestrian and vehicular traffic on new sidewalks and pavement approximately six days earlier. This would cost an additional $90,000. Council discussed looking for possible incentives to reward the contractor for completing part of the project early. If something could be found, Davis agreed to bring the information back to the Council. Council Member Ryan suggested that the City be in constant communication with these businesses perhaps on a daily basis. Mayor Watts asked that Council receive updates on how construction was progressing and what the City was doing to improve business traffic. Council discussed different ideas to assist the East Hickory businesses with increased promotion and marketing efforts. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 14, 2014 Page 5 Assistant City Manager, Bryan Langley told the Council that under the City Manager's approval authority staff could administratively handle implementing a marketing campaign if the Council desired. General consensus of the Council was for the City to do so. D. ID 14 -0661 Receive a report, hold a discussion and give staff direction regarding a proposed convention center. Chuck Springer, Director of Fiscal and Municipal Services, stated the assumptions for projection were: Annual revenue growth of 3% in existing hotel occupancy taxes was from a revised estimate for FY 2014 -15. Hotel occupancy taxes for convention center hotel was based on occupancy rate increases to 78% by year five of operation. TIRZ revenues — City participation for 30 years was at 100 %. DISD participation at 50% of debt service tax rate for 20 years and County participation at 50% of full tax rate for 20 years. Sales tax revenue was based on an estimate of taxable sales in the hotel and restaurant. Developer debt service contribution was annual debt service less occupancy and sales taxes from hotel. TIRZ revenues and up to $100,000 was from City tourism and convention fund. All current tourism fund recipients, the CVB and CVB marketing of the convention center received 3% annual increase in funding from the FY 2014 -15 baseline. The convention center asset replacement was funded at years 1 -7 — $75,000 annually, Years 8 -14 — $300,000 annually, and Years 15 -30 — $370,000 annually. Every seven -year period the balance in the asset replacement account was spent for replacement and refreshment of the Convention Center. Jon Fortune, Assistant City Manager, reviewed proposed convention center expenditures and estimated budget. He stated that this was information the council had requested previously. The total for the project was $29,355,230; spent to date was $443,864. Fortune stated that he wanted to go over the bid alternates. There were 20 or 30 bid alternates that they had considered. There were two large items that depending on what we chose could have a large impact on the project. The biggest issue was the slab — slab on the grade was the low option. An engineered slab which would have some floating elements was the high option. The engineering report showed the slab on grade was possible on the site. Soils were fairly decent on the site. However, there was a potential for some movement for a building on that site. They took the engineering reports from the architects to a third party engineer who said both slabs would work. Fortune asked what level of risk the Council wanted to take. Staff preferred the engineered slab — cost was $980,000. The other issue was whether to go with a higher ply roof. Staff's experience was that they would prefer higher ply on the roof. Fortune stated that he needed some feedback on Council's preference on the slab and the roof. Fortune stated another item was the project schedule. It was a very compressed schedule — with a June 30 bid date, the prices were good for 180 days which ended December 30. He stated that staff could bring the construction contract to Council on November 11 and that would lock the prices. The contractor has expressed concern at holding prices at bid price until the end of the year. Fortune stated that an estimate to get civil drawings and move toward obtaining a building permit would cost the City about $72,000. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 14, 2014 Page 6 Fortune stated that one final thing they were going to have to submit designs in early November but would want to have a permit in hand before they came back in December to call for a bond election. Council Member Roden asked if the City had received any feedback from O'Reilly on what their intent was if the DISD or County did not participate in the TIRZ. Fortune stated O'Reilly had not shared his opinion on that. General consensus of Council was to go along with staff suggestions on the slab and the roof. The Council expressed concerns on moving forward with the project. It appeared that the project had lost a lot of community support. Discussion included changing the development agreement to a Chapter 380 agreement in order to save the deal. The Council also discussed saving the deal by shifting the financing risk to the developer through a new agreement where the convention center could be built and owned by O'Reilly with the City paying the company a lease equivalent to the taxes collected each month. Council agreed that it was time for the City to stop making concessions regarding the project. General consensus of the Council was for staff to stop working on the project until the City received an answer from O'Reilly on whether the project could go forward if the County and DISD did not participate in the TIRZ. Fortune told the Council that he had tried to keep his personal thoughts regarding this project to himself, but he wanted the Council to know he felt it was a good project for the City. General consensus of Council was to ask O'Reilly the question and the City needed an answer no later than October 29. Council told staff to not move forward with the project until the City had received some kind of commitment from O'Reilly and once they received that, come back to Council before they did anything else. E. ID 14 -0613 Under Section 551.042 of the Texas Open Meetings Act, respond to inquiries from the City Council 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 AND Under Section 551.0415 of the Texas Open Meetings Act, provide reports about items of community interest regarding which no action will be taken, to include: expressions of thanks, congratulations, or condolence; information regarding holiday schedules; an honorary or salutary recognition of a public official, public employee, or other citizen; a reminder about an upcoming event organized or sponsored by the governing body; information regarding a social, ceremonial, or community event organized or sponsored by an entity other than the governing body that was attended or is scheduled to be attended by a member of the governing body or an official or employee of the municipality; or an announcement involving an imminent threat to the public health and safety of people in the municipality that has arisen after the posting of the agenda. Council Member Ryan requested an informal staff report on the training and education of first responders on the Ebola issue and to possibly schedule a presentation from the Denton County Health Department on the issue. City of Denton City Council Minutes October 14, 2014 Page 7 Mayor Watts requested a work session on the issue of trucks stopping on the square and blocking traffic at all hours of day. Council Member Ryan stated that the Council had passed the no parking on Oakland on the section from Oak to Hickory and there was a problem with people going the wrong way. There was a one way sign on top of the stop sign at Oak but no other signage. He stated that the signage was not very good. With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:55 p.m. CHRIS WATTS MAYOR CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS JANE RICHARDSON ASSISTANT CITY SECRETARY CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS City Hall City of Denton 215 E. McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com DENT' IN File #: ID 14 -0776, Version: 1 Legislation Text AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Materials Management ACM: Bryan Langley AGENDA DATE: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas providing for, authorizing and approving the purchase of a VCE Vblock System 340 and VCE maintenance for the City of Denton to replace datacenter equipment that has reached full capacity, as approved by the State of Texas Department of Information Resources (Contract4s DIR- TSO- 2634/DIR -TSO- 2544 /DIR -SDD- 1915); providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective date (File 5697- awarded to Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC in the four (4) year, 0% effective rate, lease agreement amount not -to- exceed $1,073,598). FILE INFORMATION This item is for the purchase of (1) VCE Vblock System 340 Converged Datacenter Infrastructure to replace datacenter equipment that has reached full capacity and scalability. This new equipment will accommodate existing requirements as well as the continued growth of technology needs for all City departments except for Denton Municipal Electric for an estimated 7 year lifecycle. The Vblock will be funded through a four (4) year, 0% effective rate lease purchase through Key Government Finance, Inc. (Exhibit 1). A $39,813.30 special financing promotion payment will be made by Cisco Systems, Inc. This will negate any finance charges associated with the lease. The City of Denton computing infrastructure is comprised of the following: • Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) blade servers. All servers have the same processor and memory configuration to reduce complexity of the environment. All server components have multiple redundancies for fault tolerance and hot swappable to minimize maintenance downtime. • Fiber channel storage area network disk storage with current capacity of 95 Terabytes. A combination of high performance disks and economy disks are combined with solid state cache for performance and cost effectiveness. 90 percent of the storage is currently allocated. Cisco Nexus server switching is utilized as required for UCS. Also, Nexus supports fiber channel over Ethernet storage protocols for physical servers. • VMware virtualization software is used to consolidate many multiples of windows server operating system onto a single, physical server blade. The efficiency gained reduces the number of physical server blades required by a factor of 50. The infrastructure components listed above can be purchased piecemeal and assembled by staff or procured as a City of Denton Page 1 of 3 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: ID 14 -0776, Version: 1 "converged" block purchase where the manufacturer delivers all of the components assembled and configured. The converged product is more expensive by a factor of 1.15. However, City of Denton is pursuing the converged purchase because of the time savings in getting the infrastructure installed and functioning. Assembling the infrastructure piecemeal would nominally take up to 20 weeks to receive, install, burn -in, test, update, and configure all components to mutually compatible software and firmware versions. The converged infrastructure will be installed, tested and ready for operations in 3 weeks. Staff time is utilized to work on more strategic work rather than the tactical work of configuration and problem resolution. The new equipment is sized to accommodate existing computing and storage requirements plus a growth factor of 2.2. This growth factor is adequate for the City's needs over the expected seven (7) year lifecycle of the equipment. Technology typically has a lifecycle of six to seven years before changes in software and new equipment begin to make it obsolete. Much of the City of Denton's existing network infrastructure is coming to the end of its lifecycle and requires a refresh of the technology to maintain reliable operation and support by the manufacturer. Maintaining the support and maintenance for the technology is critical to provide a high level of service to City departments, residents, and businesses in the City of Denton. BASIS FOR SELECTION This equipment will be procured using the State of Texas Department of Information Resources Contract4s DIR -TSO- 2634 /DIR- TSO- 2544/DIR -SDD -1915. In order to ascertain that the best value is being obtained, staff solicited quotes from other vendors. A comparison sheet is included as Exhibit 2. No local vendors were identified that provide this equipment. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends awarding to Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC in the four (4) year, 0% effective rate, lease agreement amount not -to- exceed $1,073,598. This dollar amount includes a $95,000 equipment trade in credit which is reflected on the quote from Presidio (Exhibit 3). PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC Lewisville, TX FISCAL INFORMATION Cost of the infrastructure procurement is $1,073,597.85 for all hardware, software, four (4) year maintenance, and installation services. Four annual payments of $268,399.46 are budgeted in the Technology Services operating account number 830001.8545. Each using department is charged a cost allocation as part of the budget process.

In the event Lessee shall fail to either maintain the insurance required by this Agreement or keep the Property in good repair and working order, Lessor may, but shall be under no obligation to, purchase the required insurance and pay the cost of the premiums thereof or maintain and repair the Property and pay the cost thereof. All amounts so advanced by Lessor shall constitute additional rent for the Lease Term for the Property Schedule for which the Property is under and shall be due and payable on the next Rental Payment Date and Lessee covenants and agrees to pay such amounts so advanced by Lessor with interest thereon from the date such amounts are advanced until paid at the rate of 12% per annum or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is less.

B. Lessor and Lessee intend to cause or have caused certain funds to be deposited with Escrow Agent to pay for costs of the Property, and Escrow Agent has agreed to disburse said funds in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. C. Each of the parties has authority to enter into this Agreement and has taken all actions necessary to authorize the execution of this Agreement by the officers whose signatures are affixed hereto. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. Lessor, Lessee and Escrow Agent agree that Escrow Agent shall act as sole Escrow Agent under the Lease and this Escrow Agreement, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent, in its capacity as escrow agent hereunder, shall not be deemed to be a party to the Lease, and this Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the entire agreement regarding the Acquisition Fund (as hereinafter defined) among Lessor, Lessee and Escrow Agent. 2.

McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com D EN'FON File #: ID 14 -0777, Version: 1 Legislation Text AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Materials Management ACM: Bryan Langley AGENDA DATE: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas providing for, authorizing and approving the purchase of a VCE Vblock System 340 and VCE maintenance for a new datacenter for Denton Municipal Electric as approved by the State of Texas Department of Information Resources (Contract4s DIR -TSO- 2634 /DIR -TSO- 2544 /DIR -SDD- 1915); providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective date (File 5698- awarded to Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC in the four (4) year, 0% effective rate, lease agreement amount not -to- exceed $573,505.95). FILE INFORMATION This item is for the purchase of (1) VCE Vblock System 340 Converged Datacenter Infrastructure to implement new datacenter computing and storage equipment to accommodate Denton Municipal Electric's (DME) needs for dedicated services and their rapidly growing line of business. This new equipment will accommodate existing DME requirements as well as provide scalability for continued growth of technology needs for an estimated five (5) year lifecycle. The Vblock will be funded through a four (4) year, 0% effective rate lease purchase through Key Government Finance, Inc. (Exhibit 1). A $21,267.90 special financing promotion payment will be made by Cisco Systems, Inc. This will negate any finance charges associated with the lease. Denton Municipal Electric (DME) leverages many technology solutions to perform work, manage distribution systems, and comply with state and federal regulations. The solutions are all client server based and require computing, networking, and storage resources. To minimize complexity in the City's computing environment, DME's infrastructure mirrors the City's infrastructure. DME depends on a number of mission critical applications for their operations. Automated meter infrastructure, workforce management, Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Independent System Operator market participation (EMO), and North American Electric Reliability Council regulatory compliance all require computing systems provided at a highly redundant and reliable level of service. Additionally, DME operations are 24/7 year round and subject to penalties and fines if not operated within regulatory guidelines. Therefore, DME will operate an infrastructure separate and independent of the City of Denton infrastructure for electric specific systems while still taking advantage of cost savings for shared systems such as email, financials, Human Resources, file shares, and print servers. The proposed system is designed to be adequate for DME's current systems with additional capacity for growth City of Denton Page 1 of 3 Printed on 11/26/2014 File M ID 14 -0777, Version: 1 over the five (5) year lifecycle. In addition, the proposed system adds the capability of data backups independent of the City of Denton data backup process, so that the two processes will not interfere. DME metering and EMO operations require storage capable of holding time series data for each meter and generators in the nodal network, weather data, multiple load forecast scenarios, and archival of market participation information. Total cost for this procurement is $573,505.95 for hardware, software, four (4) years of maintenance, and installation services. Four annual payments of $143,376.49 are included in Technology Services operating budget. BASIS FOR SELECTION This equipment will be procured using the State of Texas Department of Information Resources Contract4s DIR -TSO- 2634 /DIR- TSO- 2544/DIR -SDD -1915. In order to ascertain that the best value is being obtained, staff solicited quotes from other vendors. A comparison sheet is included as Exhibit 2. The quote from Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC is included as Exhibit 3. No local vendors were identified that provide this equipment. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends awarding to Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC in the four (4) year, 0% effective rate lease agreement with Key Government Finance in the not -to- exceed amount of $573,505.95. PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC Lewisville, TX FISCAL INFORMATION Funding for this item will be budgeted in various Technology Services operating accounts depending on the service or equipment provided. All costs will be allocated to DME through the Technology Services Cost Allocation Plan as part of the budget process.

Lessee intends to continue the Property Schedule entered into pursuant to this Agreement and to pay the Rental Payments thereunder. Lessee reasonably believes that legally available funds in an amount sufficient to make all Rental Payments during the term of the Property Schedule can be obtained. Lessee agrees that its staff will provide, during the budgeting process for each budget year to the governing body of Lessee, notification of any Rental Payments due under the Property Schedule during the following budget year.

Although Lessee has made this covenant, in the event that it fails to provide such notice, no remedy is provided and Lessee shall not be liable for any damages for its failure to so comply. 6.06 Non - Appropriation. If sufficient funds are not appropriated to make Rental Payments required under the Property Schedule, the Property Schedule shall terminate and Lessee shall not be obligated to make Rental Payments under the Property Schedule beyond the then current fiscal year for which funds have been appropriated.

Upon such defeasance, all right, title and interest of Lessor in the Property under the Property Schedule shall terminate.

Lessee shall keep the Property free of all levies, liens and encumbrances, except for the interest of Lessor under this Agreement.

Lessee shall pay all gas, water, steam, electricity, heat, power, telephone, utility and other charges incurred in the operation, maintenance, use, occupancy and upkeep of the Property. Lessee shall pay such taxes or charges as the same may become due; provided that, with respect to any such taxes or charges that may lawfully be paid in installments over a period of years, Lessee shall be obligated to pay only such installments as accrue during the then current fiscal year of the Lease Term for such Property. 8.03 Insurance. At its own expense, Lessee shall maintain (a) casualty insurance insuring the Property against loss or damage by fire and all other risks covered by the standard extended coverage endorsement then in use in the State and any other risks reasonably required by Lessor in an amount equal to at least the outstanding principal component of Rental Payments, and (b) liability insurance that protects Lessor from liability in all events in an amount reasonably acceptable to Lessor, and (c) worker's compensation insurance covering all employees working on, in, near or about the Property; provided that Lessee may self- insure against all such risks. All insurance proceeds from casualty losses shall be payable as hereinafter provided in this Agreement. All such insurance shall be with insurers that are authorized to issue such insurance in the State. All such liability insurance shall name Lessor as an additional insured. All such casualty insurance shall contain a provision making any losses payable to Lessor and Lessee as their respective interests may appear. All such insurance shall contain a provision to the effect that such insurance shall not be canceled or modified without first giving written notice thereof to Lessor and Lessee at least thirty (30) days in advance of such cancellation or modification. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor, on or before the Commencement Date for the Property Schedule, and thereafter at Lessor's request, certificates evidencing such coverage, or, if Lessee self- insures, a written description of its self- insurance program together with a certification from Lessee's risk manager or insurance agent or consultant to the effect that Lessee's self- insurance program provides adequate coverage against the risks listed above. 8.04 Advances. In the event Lessee shall fail to either maintain the insurance required by this Agreement or keep the Property in good repair and working order, Lessor may, but shall be under no obligation to, purchase the required insurance and pay the cost of the premiums thereof or maintain and repair the Property and pay the cost thereof. All amounts so advanced by Lessor shall constitute additional rent for the Lease Term for the Property Schedule for which the Property is under and shall be due and payable on the next Rental Payment Date and Lessee covenants and agrees to pay such amounts so advanced by Lessor with interest thereon from the date such amounts are advanced until paid at the rate of 12% per annum or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is less. ARTICLE IX 9.01 Damaoe or Destruction. If (a) the Property under the Property Schedule or any portion thereof is destroyed, in whole or in part, or is damaged by fire or other casualty, or (b) title to, or the temporary use of, the Property under the Property Schedule or any part thereof shall be taken under the exercise or threat of the power of eminent domain by any governmental body or by any person, firm or corporation acting pursuant to governmental authority, Lessor and Lessee will cause the Net Proceeds (as hereinafter defined) of any insurance claim, condemnation award or sale under threat of condemnation to be applied to the prompt replacement, repair, restoration, modification or improvement of the Property, unless Lessee shall have exercised its right to defease the Property Schedule as provided herein, or unless Lessee shall have exercised its option to purchase Lessor's interest in the Property if the Property Schedule so provides. Any balance of the Net Proceeds remaining after such work has been completed shall be paid to Lessee. For purposes of Section 14.02(b) and this Article IX, the term "Net Proceeds" shall mean the amount remaining from the gross proceeds of any insurance claim, condemnation award or sale under threat of condemnation after deducting all expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in the collection thereof. 9.02 Insufficiency of Net Proceeds. If the Net Proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the cost of any repair, restoration, modification or improvement referred to in Section 9.01, Lessee shall (a) complete such replacement, repair, restoration, modification or improvement and pay any costs thereof in excess of the amount of the Net Proceeds and, if Lessee shall make any payments pursuant to this Section, Lessee shall not be entitled to any reimbursement therefor from Lessor nor shall Lessee be entitled to any diminution of the amounts payable under Section 6.02, or (b) defease the Property Schedule pursuant to Section 6.07, or (c) exercise its option to purchase Lessor's interest in the Property pursuant to the optional purchase provisions of the Property Schedule, if any. The amount of the Net Proceeds, if any, remaining after completing such repair, restoration, modification or improvement or after such defeasance or purchase may be retained by Lessee. ARTICLE X 10.01 Disclaimer of Warranties. LESSOR MAKES NO (AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY) WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE DESIGN, OPERATION OR CONDITION OF, OR THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT OR WORKMANSHIP IN, THE PROPERTY, ITS MERCHANTABILITY OR ITS FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, THE STATE OF TITLE THERETO OR ANY COMPONENT THEREOF, THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS (WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE), AND LESSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS THE SAME; IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT THE PROPERTY IS LEASED TO LESSEE "AS IS" ON THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DATE OF DELIVERY, WHICHEVER IS LATER, AND ALL SUCH RISKS, IF ANY, ARE TO BE BORNE BY LESSEE.

( "Lessor "), City of Denton ( "Lessee ") and KeyBank National Association (the "Escrow Agent "). RECITALS: A. Lessor and Lessee are parties to a Tax - Exempt Lease /Purchase Agreement, dated as of 12/2/2014 and the Property Schedule thereunder (the "Lease ") whereunder Lessee is acquiring from Lessor certain personal property more particularly described therein (the "Property "). B. Lessor and Lessee intend to cause or have caused certain funds to be deposited with Escrow Agent to pay for costs of the Property, and Escrow Agent has agreed to disburse said funds in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. C. Each of the parties has authority to enter into this Agreement and has taken all actions necessary to authorize the execution of this Agreement by the officers whose signatures are affixed hereto. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. Lessor, Lessee and Escrow Agent agree that Escrow Agent shall act as sole Escrow Agent under the Lease and this Escrow Agreement, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent, in its capacity as escrow agent hereunder, shall not be deemed to be a party to the Lease, and this Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the entire agreement regarding the Acquisition Fund (as hereinafter defined) among Lessor, Lessee and Escrow Agent. 2.

There is hereby established in the custody of Escrow Agent a special trust fund designated as the "City of Denton Acquisition Fund" (the "Acquisition Fund ") to be held and administered by Escrow Agent in trust for Lessee in accordance with this Escrow Agreement, subject to Lessor's rights under Section 3 hereof. It is anticipated that the funds in the Acquisition Fund and earnings thereon shall be sufficient to pay the cost of acquisition of the Property. In the event such sums are insufficient, Lessee shall be responsible for the timely payment of any deficiency. The moneys and investments held by Escrow Agent under this Agreement are irrevocably held in trust for the benefit of Lessee and Lessor, and such moneys, together with any income or interest earned thereon, shall be expended only as provided in this Agreement, and shall not be subject to levy or attachment or lien by or for the benefit of any creditor of Lessee (other than Lessor) or Lessor. Lessor, Lessee and Escrow Agent intend that the Acquisition Fund constitute an escrow account in which Lessee has no legal or equitable right, title or interest until satisfaction in full of all conditions contained herein and in the Lease for the disbursement of funds by Escrow Agent therefrom. However, if the parties' intention that Lessee shall have no legal or equitable right, title or interest until all conditions for disbursement are satisfied in full is not respected in any legal proceeding, the parties hereto intend that Lessor have a security interest in such account, and such security interest is hereby granted to Lessor by Lessee, to secure payment of all sums due to Lessor under the Lease. For such purpose, Escrow Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for Lessor in connection with the perfection of such security interest and agrees to note, or cause to be noted, on all books and records relating to such accounts, Lessor's interest therein. 2.A. Deposit in Acquisition Fund. There shall be deposited in the Acquisition Fund the sum of $573,505.95. Escrow Agent shall maintain accounting records sufficient to permit calculation of the income on investments and interest earned on deposit of amounts held in the Acquisition Fund, and such income and interest shall become part of the Acquisition Fund and may be expended as provided herein. 2.B. Disbursements from Acquisition Fund. Escrow Agent shall make payments from the Acquisition Fund to pay costs of the Property upon receipt of requisitions from Lessee, signed by an authorized individual substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, which is incorporated by reference herein. In the event Escrow Agent is directed or requested by Lessee to hold or deposit any retained funds or to accept a retainage bond (in lieu of funds) as may be required by law or the terms of the acquisition contract to which Lessee is a party, Escrow Agent shall act in accordance with Lessee's instructions, and such retained funds (or performance bond) and any interest thereon shall be paid as provided in instructions to Escrow Agent from Lessee. The final requisition shall include the final acceptance certificate required in the Lease, which shall be executed by the Lessee and delivered to the Escrow Agent. Where requisitions involve titled motor vehicles, the requisition shall also include: (i) Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin. (ii) Motor vehicle paperwork appropriate to state of registration, noting Key Government Finance, Inc. as lien holder. (iii) Insurance certificate naming Key Government Finance, Inc., its successors and assigns as sole loss payee and additional insured for the specified equipment. 3. Termination of Escrow.

CHRIS WATTS, MAYOR ATTEST: JENNIFER WALTERS, CITY SECRETARY BY: APPROVED AS TO LEGAL FORM: ANITA BURGESS, CITY ATTORNEY _ A BY: City Hall City of Denton 215 E. McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com D EN'FON File #: ID 14 -0781, Version: 1 Legislation Text AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Materials Management ACM: Bryan Langley AGENDA DATE: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance accepting competitive proposals and awarding a contract for Workers' Compensation Claims Third Party Administration for the City of Denton; providing for the expenditure of funds therefore; and providing an effective date (RFP 5642- awarded to Texas Political Subdivisions Joint Self - Insurance Fund in the three (3) year amount not -to- exceed $150,000). RFP INFORMATION The City of Denton utilizes the specialized knowledge, experience, and computer systems of a Third -Party Administrator (TPA) to handle the City's self - funded workers' compensation claims, in accordance with the Texas Workers' Compensation Act. Also, the City could be in an adversarial position with an injured worker if disputes arise during the adjusting of a claim, it is beneficial to have a third -party "buffer" in place. The TPA provides all direct and ancillary services necessary to properly handle a workers' compensation claim, including but not limited to claim investigation, weekly and impairment income benefit calculations and payments, medical bill reviews, audits and payments, preparation for, and attendance at Division of Workers' Compensation hearings. The City has utilized CCS Holdings, Inc. (CCS), in Irving, Texas, to provide these services in the past. However, due to a change in the company's business model, CCS will no longer be performing these services after December 31, 2014. As a result, in September of 2014, Request for Proposal (RFP) 45642 was prepared and distributed to 12 prospective providers and advertised on the Materials Management website and in the local newspaper. Nine (9) proposals were received that met the minimum requirements for submission. None of the respondents are located within the Denton city limits. The City's Risk Management staff, with the consulting experience and advice of McGriff, Seibels, & Williams, the City's property /casualty /workers' compensation consultant, evaluated the proposals based on the published criteria of total pricing, responsiveness to the RFP, and indicators of probable performance under the contract. The RFP requested cost options on a per claim, monthly, and annual basis. The original proposals ranged from $89,625 to $159,000 on an annual fee basis for a three (3) year term, with an alternate bid to provide liability claims adjusting. The City currently pays CCS $4,666.66 per month, or an annual cost of $56,000, for workers' compensation claims handling. City of Denton Page 1 of 3 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: ID 14 -0781, Version: 1 RFP INFORMATION (CONTINUED) Based on the initial evaluation and scoring, four (4) respondents were selected for face -to -face interviews. Following the interviews, those four respondents were re- evaluated and re- scored and two (2) finalists were selected for on -site visits, to include interviews with the potential adjusters. Following the on -site visits and interviews, the two (2) finalists were re- scored and the evaluation team ranked Texas Political Subdivisions Joint Self - Insurance Fund (TPS) as the highest scoring respondent and therefore providing the best value for the City. While TPS did not have the lowest annual cost of the two (2) finalists, the total cost over the three (3) year contract is only $4,100 more than the other finalist. However, TPS was evaluated as being superior in the areas of claims system, adjuster confidence and report, and experience with public entity workers' compensation claims. TPS is a political subdivision of the State of Texas formed through Texas Labor Code, Chapter 504. TPS has been providing self - insurance to public entities since 1983. TPS provides property, auto, general liability, public official, school board legal, cyber, and workers' compensation products to public entities in Texas (cities, counties, school districts, hospital districts, junior colleges, central appraisal districts, etc.). It should be noted that Scott Payne, the City's Risk Manager, is an unpaid, volunteer Board member for TPS. To be eligible for the TPS Board, an entity must be a member of the TPS pool and elected by the membership. The City currently has auto liability coverage through TPS. This relationship with TPS has been properly disclosed through a Conflict of Interest form required by Chapter 176 of the Texas Local Government Code, and discussed with the City Attorney's office. It was determined that no conflict of interest exists. RECOMMENDATION Award a three (3) year contract to Texas Political Subdivision Joint Self - Insurance Fund (TPS) in the not -to- exceed amount of $150,000. This amount is based on the proposed annual fee over the three (3) years, the first year implementation costs (data conversion and take -over claim fees), and an estimated level of liability claims handling. Staff has factored in a contingency for additional claims services that may be needed during the three (3) year period. PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS Texas Political Subdivisions Joint Self - Insurance Fund Dallas, Texas ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT The services under this contract will begin on January 1, 2015. This is an initial one (1) year contract with the options to extend the contract for two (2) additional one (1) year periods, with all terms and conditions remaining the same.

In such event, the Contractor shall pay to the City upon demand the increased cost, if any, incurred by the City to procure such services from another source. 11. ACCEPTANCE OF INCOMPLETE OR NON - CONFORMING DELIVERABLES: 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. The Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to the City's evaluation of and determination to accept such defective or non - conforming deliverables. If any such acceptance occurs prior to final payment, the City may deduct such amounts as are necessary to compensate the City for the diminished value of the defective or non - conforming deliverables. If the acceptance occurs after final payment, such amount will be refunded to the City by the Contractor. 12. RIGHT TO ASSURANCE: Whenever one party to the Contract in good faith has reason to question the other party's intent to perform, demand may be made to the other party for written assurance of the intent to perform. In the event that no assurance is given within the time specified after demand is made, the demanding party may treat this failure as an anticipatory repudiation of the Contract. 13. STOP WORK NOTICE: The City may issue an immediate Stop Work Notice in the event the Contractor is observed performing in a manner that is in violation of Federal, State, or local guidelines, or in a manner that is determined by the City to be unsafe to either life or property.

TERMINATION FOR CAUSE: In the event of a default by the Contractor, the City shall have the right to terminate the Contract for cause, by written notice effective ten (10) calendar days, unless otherwise specified, after the date of such notice, unless the Contractor, within such ten (10) day period, cures such default, or provides evidence sufficient to prove to the City's reasonable satisfaction that such default does not, in fact, exist. In addition to any other remedy available under law or in equity, the City shall be entitled to recover all actual damages, costs, losses and expenses, incurred by the City as a result of the Contractor's default, including, without limitation, cost of cover, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, and prejudgment and post judgment interest at the maximum lawful rate.

All rights and remedies under the Contract are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other right or remedy provided by law. 16. TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE: The City shall have the right to terminate the Contract, in whole or in part, without cause any time upon thirty (30) calendar days' prior written notice.

FRAUD: Fraudulent statements by the Contractor on any Offer or in any report or deliverable required to be submitted by the Contractor to the City shall be grounds for the termination of the Contract for cause by the City and may result in legal action. 18. DELAYS: 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.

Providing false or misleading information may subject the contractor to administrative penalties, criminal penalties, civil penalties, or other civil actions. K.

WITNESSETH: The undersigned Fund Member, in consideration of the adoption of a plan of self - insurance as authorized by Chapter 504 of the Texas Labor Code, to provide Workers' Compensation benefits at a minimum cost, and in further consideration of other political subdivisions executing similar Interlocal agreements, does hereby agree to become a member of the Fund. The conditions of membership agreed upon by and between the parties are as follows: 1. Definition of terms used in this Interlocal Agreement. a. Allocated Loss Expense -- the costs incurred in processing claims, including but not limited to court and State Workers' Compensation Board costs, expenses for investigation and adjustment of claims, legal expenses, cost containment services (such as PPO discounts, rehabilitation services, medical management services), costs in protection and pursuit of subrogation/recovery rights, and similar expenses chargeable to a particular claim (excluding ordinary overhead expenses of the Fund and/or its designee such as salaries and other fixed expenses, which shall be deemed unallocated expenses). b. Board -- the Board of Trustees of the Texas Political Subdivisions Workers' Compensation Joint Self - Insurance Fund. C. Employee - references the definition of "employee" in Chapter 504 of the Texas Labor Code. For the purpose of the coverage afforded under this Interlocal Agreement, any full-time, salaried elected official who appears on the regular payrolls of the Fund Member will be considered an employee of the Fund Member. The Fund Member may extend statutory coverage to certain volunteers (individuals who do not meet the full definition of employee) by specific Supplement to the Interlocal Agreement. 1099 EN Exhibit G d. Fund Year — January 1 through December 31. This does not affect or alter the Fund Member's effective date. e. Loss -- the sums actually paid or payable by the Fund in the settlement or satisfaction of any claim or suit for which a Fund member is liable either by adjudication or settlement made with the written consent of the Fund. 2. This Interlocal Agreement shall commence at 12:01 a.m. on the date shown as "effective date" on the signatory page of this Agreement, and shall remain in force and effect until terminated as hereinafter provided. This Agreement may be terminated by (a) mutual consent or by (b) either party giving sixty (60) days prior written notice of termination to the other party or (c) as otherwise specified in this Interlocal Agreement or the Bylaws of the Fund. 3. The Fund Member must be a political subdivision of the State of Texas and will be bound by the provisions of Chapter 504 of the Texas Labor Code as amended. 4. The newly enrolling Fund Member who has not previously been a member of this Fund or the Fund Member who has not previously operated under this Cash Flow plan, agrees to pay the Fund, on or before the inception date of this Interlocal Agreement, an initial payment of one (1) month's estimated Claims Administration Fee, and the total Field Service Fee (if any), Administrative Services Fees, Loss Control Services Fees, or other charges as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. On or before the commencement of the third month after the inception date of this Interlocal Agreement, the Fund Member agrees to pay an amount equal to the actual Claims Administration Fees of the first month of membership plus any other associated Claims Administration Fee. On or before the commencement of the fourth month of this Interlocal Agreement, a similar payment based upon the actual Claims Administration Fees of the second month shall be paid to the Fund, with subsequent monthly payments to be paid each and every month thereafter, based on the actual Claims Administration Fees and applicable charges. The actual Claims Administration Fees of the Fund Member are those fees paid by the Fund on behalf of the Fund Member in the month which is two months prior to the billing month. However, the Fund and the Fund Member may agree to a different payment plan. 5. The Fund Member who was a member of this Fund immediately prior to the inception date of this Interlocal Agreement and has operated under this Cash Flow plan agrees to pay the Fund for those services described in this Agreement and the charges listed in Exhibit A attached hereto. Included in this billing will be an amount equal to the actual Claims Administration Fees of the Fund Member plus any other associated Claims Administration Fee as set forth in Exhibit A. 1099 EN Exhibit G 6. The Fund will invoice the Fund Member monthly for these amounts due and the payment by the Fund Member is due in the office of the Fund and /or its designee on or before the beginning of the month. In the event the Fund Member fails or refuses to make the payments of charges as herein provided, the Fund reserves the right to terminate such Fund Member by giving ten (10) days written notice and to collect any and all outstanding charges or other required payments which were incurred prior to the date of the Interlocal Agreement termination. 7. It is further agreed that the Fund Member will create on or before the inception date of this Interlocal Agreement a loss deposit with the Fund equal to a minimum of two months estimated paid losses. This deposit will be adjusted periodically to accurately reflect realistic monthly loss payments and/or timely invoice payments. 8. The Fund Member agrees to pay any Division of Workers' Compensation maintenance tax that may be imposed and the Fund agrees to file the necessary tax forms with the Internal Revenue Service. 9. Any party hereto paying for the performance of governmental functions or services shall make payments therefore from current revenues available to the paying party. 10. After termination of this Agreement, the Fund will continue to handle claims with an accident date occurring during the term of this Agreement until such claims are ultimately and finally disposed of and closed, and the Fund Member will pay the Fund each and every month, until all claims handled by the Fund are disposed of, the monthly Claims Administration Fee calculated as described herein, and the monthly reimbursement of paid Losses on behalf of the Fund Member as is determined herein. The Fund Member also agrees to maintain with the Fund the loss deposit as determined herein. Upon expiration of this contract the Fund and/or its designee will have the exclusive right and obligation to adjust claims which occurred during the Agreement Period. 11. In the event the Fund Member fails or refuses to make any required payment on a timely basis as described herein, the Fund reserves the right, by giving ten (10) days written notice, to cease all payments on behalf of the Fund Member. In such event, the Fund will notify the Division of Workers' Compensation of this action. The Fund Member agrees to pay the Fund all charges and other required payments which were incurred prior to the date of notification. 12. After termination of this Agreement, the Fund is not obligated to provide any of the services as described herein except for Claims Administration services as described in Paragraph 10 above. 13. Loss control services will be supplied by the Fund and /or its designee to Fund Members to assist them in following a plan of loss control that may result in reduced losses. The loss control services provided are, however, optional with the Fund Member. If the Fund 1099 EN Exhibit G Member elects this service, its election shall be indicated on Exhibit A. The Fund Member agrees that it will cooperate in instituting any and all reasonable loss control recommendations for the purpose of eliminating or minimizing hazards that would contribute to losses. The Fund and/or its designee shall provide all of its standard services, or as modified for the individual Fund Member. 14. The Fund and /or its designee, agrees on behalf of the Fund Member to pay all Losses and Allocated Loss Expenses, except as otherwise provided herein, to handle any and all claims after notice of injury has been given, to prepare all required Division of Workers' Compensation forms, and to provide a defense. The Fund Member hereby appoints the Fund and /or its designee as its agent to act in all matters pertaining to processing and handling of workers' compensation claims and shall cooperate fully in supplying any information needed. The Fund Member does hereby agree that any suit brought by one of its employees pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 504 of the Texas Labor Code shall be defended in the name of the Fund Member by the counsel selected by the Fund and /or its designee, on behalf of and at the expense of the Fund as necessary for the prosecution of any litigation. Full cooperation by the Fund Member shall be extended to supply any information needed or helpful in such defense. The Fund and/or its designee shall conduct all negotiations with the injured employee and /or his Representative at all hearings and conferences, and negotiate within authority previously granted by the Fund. If a personal appearance by a representative or a co- employee is necessary, the expense of this appearance will be paid by the Fund Member. All decisions on individual claims shall be made by the Fund and /or its designee, which includes the decision to appeal or not to appeal a Division of Workers' Compensation final ruling and decision.

ME The same two buildings are seen in the mid-century photograph above, Notice that the building on the left (116) has transom windows above the canopy, behind the "Shamrock Shoes" sign. The building on the right (114) appears in its original, uncovered state. Notice also that the fagade to the right of 114 (112) is uncovered as well. Based upon what is revealed in the contemporary photographs, it is very difficult to know what is still intact beneath the precast concrete covering on 114 and 112. What we can tell is that the high cornice is no longer intac and the second floor windows have been replaced, at least the two middle ones. The transom windows may `Xj�st in some form or fashion, but it cannot be determined from contemporary exterior photographs al iiii The only way to determine what is going on behind the precast concrete cover is to do some investigation from the inside the buildings. It should be easy to go to the second floor and see if the original windows or openings still exist. Likewise, it should j ,,,,., , ��i Jo�w,u� �l nom, / / /r usa be possible to inspect the interior transom areas and see if the -windows or openings still exist as well. Page 2 of 6 What has happened to 116 and 118? Page 3 of 6 Design Suggestions: There is no question that having the original facades back on these buildings would be the best solution. '-I'he problem is that so much has changed over the years and so much remains unknown regarding the condition of the Eacadcs beneath the precast covering. Careful investigation and research may yet determine that facade restoration is possible but it may also yield the opposite. The Texas Main Street Center design staff proceeded with the ftSSUMpfiOI-I that most of the existing elements that are currently on the buildings (112-118) would remain and that any facade improvements that were going to be made would be mild to moderate in scope (paint colors, new signage, surface ornament, window display). page 4 of 6 Page 5 of 6 Guidance for Rehabilitation, The Texas Main Street Program helps Texas cities revitalize their historic downtowns and neighborhood uocuozeccial districts 6v utilizing preservation and economic development u .IheSccruuuzyoEUheIuLcrior'n Standards for Rehabilitation is a list of ten ways to approach rehabilitation on historic buildings.

McKinney Street Minutes After determining that a quorum was present, the Downtown Task Force convened on Thursday, August 14, 2014 at 8:34 a.m. in the City Hall Work Session Room, 315 W. McKinney Street, Denton, Texas. PRESENT: Marty Rivers, Melissa Lenaburg, Bob Moses, Kate Lynass, Don Lee, Herbert Holl, Brandon Martino, Hank Dickenson, Monte Jensen, Alex Payne, and Brock McKnight EX- OFFICO: Glen Farris Squibb ABSENT: Beth Lewis, Peggy Capps, Greg Johnson, and Margaret Chalfant STAFF PRESENT: Julie Glover, Aimee Bissett, Christina Davis, and Karen Boenker GUESTS: Matt Fisher, West Oak Coffee House; Chris Hawley and Marcus Watson, Dan's Silver Leaf 1. Approved minutes from June 19, 2014 meeting. Lynass motioned approval of the June 19, 2014 minutes. The motion was seconded by Dickenson and carried unanimously (9 — 0). 2. Received a report and held a discussion regarding a sign grant for 211 -215 E. Oak Street (Melrose Place Apartments). Glover provided a detailed overview of the sign grant which included photos of the sign and the total eligible cost of $365. The applicant was not present. Monte Jensen arrived. 3. Received a report and held a discussion regarding a sign grant for 231 W. Hickory (Sprockets Bicycle Shop/NV Cupcakes). Glover provided a detailed overview of the application which included drawings of the sign and the total eligible cost of $1,500. The applicant was not present. Because there are two separate businesses sharing the same address /location, and the sign application showed both new signs, only one grant will be allowed, per the grant guidelines. 4. Received a report and held a discussion regarding a Downtown Reinvestment Grant Program Application for 114 W. Oak (West Oak Coffee Bar). Glover introduced the project, covering the history of the building which included historic photos through the life of the building. The applicant, Matt Fisher, was present to describe the renovations to the former storage space for McBride Music and Pawn. The plan is to rehab the space, returning it back to its original architecture. Due to the condition of the building, some of the original building material under the canopy had been allowed to decay and cannot be removed, but will be covered with a brick veneer. The current display windows will be removed to make way for a covered patio. The second floor, which has a separate entry, will become an area for people to meet, work, or read. The total project costs are $398,000, with $78,950 of eligible expenses. The applicant is requesting an award of $25,000. Alex Payne arrived. 5. Received a report and held a discussion regarding a Downtown Reinvestment Grant Program Application for 103 Industrial (Dan's Silverleaf). Glover introduced the item, outlining the current use and briefly describing the proposed improvements. The applicants, Chris Hawley and Marcus Watson, provided additional details on the patio improvement which include new doors to access the patio from the interior, a new stage, outdoor bar and walk -in cooler, facade, and updated signage and marquee. Additional renovations that are not eligible for the grant were also discussed. The total project costs are $27,310, with $13,655 of eligible expenses. The applicant is requesting an award of $13,655. 6. Received a report and held a discussion regarding a Downtown Reinvestment Grant Program Application for 214 E. Hickory ( Hoochie's Seafood). Glover described the changes to the exterior and showed before and after photos of the building, which previously housed a Mexican themed hamburger restaurant. New exterior paint, awnings, and signage have been completed. The applicant was not present. The total project costs are $165,000, with $21,200 of eligible expenses. The applicant is requesting an award of $10,600. Although this building has three separate addresses, it has not been replatted to reflect it as three separate buildings.

ATTEST: JENNIFER WALTERS, CITY SECRETARY ffig APPROVED AS TO LEGAL FORM: ANITA BURGESS, CITY ATTORNEY • CHRIS WATTS, MAYOR Page 5 GENERAL LEGISLATIVE POLICY PRESERVE THE CITY'S STRATEGIC GOALS & INTERESTS STATEMENT OF PRESERVATION As a general policy, the City of Denton seeks to preserve its current authority to govern the city, its citizens, and its property. The City will oppose any legislation viewed as detrimental to the City's strategic goals; or that is contrary to the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens; or that mandates increased costs or loss of revenues; or that would diminish the fundamental authority of the City. SUPPORT LEGISLATION THAT ADVANCES THE CITY'S STRATEGIC GOALS & INTERESTS STATEMENT OF SUPPORT Likewise, the City supports any legislation viewed as advancing the City's strategic goals; or that improves the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens; or that responsibly increases revenues; or that advances the City's authority to conduct the public's business. The City will oppose any initiatives that seek to erode municipal authority or that otherwise have a negative impact on municipal operations, including but not limited to legislation that would: • Erode home rule authority; • Detrimentally affect the City's financial position by reducing revenue streams or increasing costs; • Erode the authority of Texas cities to manage and control their rights -of -way or other public property, and to be reasonably compensated for such use; • Erode current municipal economic development authority; • Erode the current authority of Texas cities to enact a system and set the level of impact fees for new development; and • Further restrict cities' ability to adopt or amend zoning regulations, and annex property in a city's extraterritorial jurisdiction. FORM COALITIONS WITH PARTIES THAT SHARE COMMON GOALS AND INTERESTS WITH THE CITY FORM COALITIONS The City will form strategic partnerships with cities, political subdivisions, and private sector entities that share common goals with the City of Denton. Additionally, the City will work in coordination with organizations such as the Texas Municipal League when their adopted positions are in -line with the legislative objectives and goals of the City. The formation of strategic partnerships and coordinated efforts is intended to provide the City with a stronger presence in the legislative process. Page 6 GOALS OF THE CITY'S LEGISLTIVE ACTIVITIES STATEMENT OF GOALS The fundamental goal of all City of Denton's legislative activities is to produce positive outcomes for the citizens of Denton as a whole. Numerous proposals in the Texas Legislature have the potential to seriously impact the ability of the City to carry out its overall mission. By taking a proactive role in monitoring and commenting on proposals in the Texas Legislature, we are working to ensure that the citizens of Denton can continue to enjoy the quality of life they have come to expect and deserve. Page 7 PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE AGENDA PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES 1. Preserve Local Budgeting Authority and Revenue Sources Oppose legislation that would unduly �^est�^ict the ability of the City to set its own budget or raise the necessary revenue to provide services to City residents and businesses. 2. Preserve Local Control of Land Use Planning and Zoning Support legislation that preserves local land use authority. Oppose legislation that would erode local land use authority by restricting the ability of cities to zone or rezone properties. Support legislation that would clarify that the state's vested rights law does not apply to subsurface mineral development as it relates to permits issued by the municipality for oil and gas development activities. 3. Preserve Local Control of Denton Municipal Electric • Oppose legislation that would deregulate Municipally Owned Utilities or amend their governing structure. 0 Support legislation that would preserve Municipally Owned Utilities' authority and governing structure that maintain a diversified energy portfolio. Page 8 DISCUSSION OF PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES Preserve Local Budgeting Authority and Revenue Sources The City of Denton will oppose legislation that will unduly restrict the ability of the City to set its own budget or raise the necessary revenue to provide services expected by City residents and businesses. ISSUE During the last several Texas Legislative Sessions, proposals have been set forth that would severely limit the ability of cities to set their budgets or raise adequate revenues to carry out their fundamental functions. For example, numerous proposals to "cap" local revenues and property appraisals have been filed in the Texas Legislature. Every elected official in the City of Denton is sensitive to the tax burden our citizens and businesses pay, and is accountable to the local electorate for the decisions they make. We are also mindful, however, that it takes a great deal of flexibility with our local budget to meet the unique demands for services while at the same time preserving the high standards our community has come to expect. PROBLEM Appraisal and revenue caps undermine the ability of local governments to meet the individual needs and circumstances of their cities. Additionally, one size fits all "caps" violate the fundamental principle of local control. Citizens and businesses have numerous opportunities to provide input to the City of Denton's budget and tax rate setting processes. Most importantly, the citizens of our City get to voice their approval or disapproval of our budgeting performance and tax rates every time we hold a City election. Unfortunately, extremely low appraisal and revenue caps can produce numerous problems. For instance, appraisal caps shift the inequitable tax burden to businesses and new homeowners. This inequitable shift can produce serious long -term negative consequences for the local economy. Revenue caps, on the other hand, require the City to cut services or take on more debt to fund local projects and services. These types of "caps" are particularly harmful to a city like Denton, because it prevents the City from adequately dealing with the infrastructure needs brought on by tremendous population growth. It is inappropriate for the State of Texas to expect local governments to provide numerous public services with no funding from the State, while at the same time unduly restricting the ability of local governments to raise the necessary levels of revenue to provide the required services. SOLITTInN If revenue caps are going to be applied to local governments they should be applied uniformly to the state budget as well. In short, the same rules should apply to all levels of government. The State could also supplement local government funding as other states that impose revenue caps have done. Page 9 Preserve Local Control of Land Use Planning and Zoning The City of Denton will support legislation that preserves local land use authority and oppose legislation that will erode local land use authority by restricting the ability of cities to zone or rezone properties. ISSUE Over the past few legislative sessions various proposals have been introduced to restrict the ability of cities to enforce their traditional land use controls. Specifically, legislation that requires cities to compensate landowners any time a zoning classification change is effected (often referred to as a "downzoning "), has come dangerously close to becoming the law. Under these proposals, cities would have to compensate landowners, even if the proposed zoning changes did not interfere with the current or intended use of the property. In addition to compensating landowners for zoning changes, proposals have been considered that would require compensation for numerous types of city regulations. For example, previously proposed legislation would have required cities to compensate landowners if they restricted the ability of patrons to smoke on premises or limited the time of day that alcohol could be served. All of these types of local restrictions have been debated under the theory of "regulatory takings." Additional legislative proposals would have prevented cities from ever changing the zoning classification of a property if any type of basic permit or site plan has been filed with any governmental entity. Since 1999 the Texas Legislature has continually expanded the "permit vesting" statute to include different aspects of city land use authority. The expansion of the "permit vesting" statute is beginning to interfere with the ability of cities to impose orderly, efficient, and comprehensive land use and development plans for their communities. PROBLEM Restricting the ability of cities to properly regulate land uses ultimately prevents them from being able to respond to the needs and demands of their citizens. For example, land use controls are used to keep undesirable businesses from locating in neighborhood -type settings. Additionally, one of the main reasons people live in cities is to have the protection of a regulated land use system. In short, when a home or business locates in a particular city they do so, in part, to ensure that an incompatible structure will not be placed next to their property. SOLUTION The ability of most cities to manage growth and development is based on the Texas constitution's home rule provisions. Cities are allowed to amend charters and pass ordinances as long as they do not conflict with the constitution or general laws enacted by the state legislature. This means that each home rule city can make its own decisions about what planning tools and techniques are most appropriate to its situation unless those tools have been proscribed by the Texas legislature. The State should be very cautious in proscribing solutions that are only applicable to individual situations because of the vast differences between cities in this large state. Page 10 Preserve Local Control of Land Use Planning and Zoning Support legislation that would clarify that the state's vested rights law does not apply to subsurface mineral development as it relates to permits issued by the municipality for oil and gas development activities. ISSUE Denton, Texas is a home rule city acting under its Charter adopted by the electorate pursuant to Article XI, Section 5 of the Texas Constitution and Chapter 9 of the Local Government Code. Denton, along with other cities in North Texas, identified that its gas well regulations did not fully implement the goals of allowing gas well operations while protecting the public's health, safety and general welfare. The rising demand for clean alternative fuel sources, and the advent of new drilling and production technologies, including hydraulic fracturing, has encouraged mineral development, including in the Barnett Shale gas play, a massive reservoir of natural gas underlying a substantial portion of southern Oklahoma and North Central Texas. The most active production zone of the Barnett Shale is situated under the highly urbanized Denton, Tarrant, and Wise counties. The City of Denton has witnessed significant conflict between increased drilling and urban expansion. The conflict between land use issues, that of gas well operations and that of surface owners seeking the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of their property, has become commonplace. Potential harmful impacts of gas well drilling and production within municipal boundaries fall heavily on neighborhoods and properties adjacent to gas well drilling and production operations, and the balancing of interests of the mineral owners and operators as against quality of life issues for those citizens working and living near drilling sites and production infrastructure has proven challenging. By way of example, during our ordinance review, citizens presented compelling evidence of the impacts of gas well drilling in an urban environment, to include noise, dust, odor, light pollution, vibrations, fire safety, visual aesthetics, surface property value impacts, negative changes to neighborhoods, incompatibility of land uses, impacts to infrastructure related to public health and welfare such as water wells, concerns over setbacks, landscaping, public notice, signage, issues related to operating hours, operator insurance issues, road impacts, and other quality of life issues. Additionally, gas well flaring, gas well completion techniques, closed loop systems, vapor recovery units, water and soil impacts, other environmental impairment issues, methods of plugging and abandoning wells, pits involved in gas well operations, emergency operation plans, and other operational aspects of extraction of minerals trigger public health, safety, property preservation, and order and security of the City of Denton and its inhabitants. Gas well operations have the propensity for polluting or degrading streams, drains, recharge features, or tributaries that may constitute or recharge the City of Denton's drinking water supply. Notwithstanding these concerns, the City encountered substantial resistance from local operators on its ability to prevent or moderate potentially harmful impacts of gas well drilling and production activities on adjacent and proximate land uses. Page 11 PRORLF,M The concept of vested rights, in particular, is argued to restrict a City's authority to address impacts of gas well drilling: vested rights, regulatory takings, and preemption. This paper is offered in support of the City's Resolution asking the Texas Legislature to clarify the state's vested rights law. "Vested rights" claims are grounded in Tex. Loc. Gov't Code, Chapter 245, as interpreted by the case of Harper Park Two, LP v. Austin, 359 S.W. 3d 247 (Tex. App. -Austin 2011). Under Chapter 245, once an application for the first permit required to complete a property development "project" is filed with the municipality that regulates the use of the property, the municipality's regulations applicable to the project are frozen in their then - current state and the city is prohibited from enforcing subsequent regulatory changes to further restrict the property's use. However, these vested rights protections are lost to the extent that the development being pursued constitutes a new or different "project" from the one for which the initial permit was sought. A "project" is defined in Chapter 245 is an "endeavor" that requires a series of permits to complete. It is the filing of the first permit in the series of required permits that triggers the vested rights protection under the statute. In the context of commercial or residential development, the application of the vested rights law is somewhat problematic, as illustrated by Harper Park Two. In the context of gas well drilling, it is even more difficult to apply. For example, assume that a gas well operator filed a gas well plat in 1992, identifying one well and a series of tank batteries on the plat. In 2007, the operator desires to drill five more wells, one of which is on the pad site of the original well, and three of which are on a pad site 5,000 feet distant from the original site. What is the project? Is it only that pad site identified on the original plat? Is it one well, or two wells, or five wells? Is the project the complete exhaustion of the mineral stores of the mineral lease, no matter the necessity of burdening the surface estate with additional wells and gas infrastructure? In an urban environment with underlying gas plays, the answer to these questions determines the health and safety and the quality of life of a municipality's citizens. SOLUTION It is Denton's position that the Texas Legislature never intended the vested rights analysis to apply to subsurface mineral development and that legislative clarification is need in this respect. Page 12 Preserve Local Control of Denton Municipal Electric The City of Denton will oppose legislation that deregulates Municipally Owned Utilities or amends their governance authority. ISSUE For the first time in over a decade, the 2011 State Legislative session saw bills introduced regarding partial deregulation for specific Municipally Owned Utilities (MOU). Ultimately, none of the bills passed into law. However, this type of legislative pressure toward specific MOUs can have a widespread, negative impact and unforeseen consequences on MOUs throughout the state. Municipalities owning an electric utility, such as in Denton's case, retain local regulatory authority through its main governing body, the City Council. It is the role and choice of these City Councils to determine each MOUs energy future by exercising its authority whether to opt - in to the deregulated market or to retain its local authority. In April, 2001, the Denton City Council took a wait - and -see approach and exercised its authority choosing not to opt -in to deregulation. To date, there has been no viable reason for Denton to enter into the deregulated market. Requiring MOUs to participate in the deregulated market essentially eliminates the authority of the governing bodies of MOUs and forces them to operate under the same guidelines as investor owned utilities. Historically, DME electric rates have remained stable and competitively priced. Mandating that an MOU participate in the deregulated market not only increases its financial burden, but also ensures that the increased costs are passed through to the DME ratepayers, thus placing DME at a competitive disadvantage in the electric market. In addition, should an MOU such as that owned by the citizens of Denton be required to opt -in, it mitigates the strategic measures that the local citizens have enacted such as requiring more renewable resources from their MOU. PRnRLF,M Austin Energy's (AE) rate increase has raised the deregulation issue and it is anticipated that legislation will be proposed to deregulate all or a portion of AE. The opt -in discussions concerning AE may be expanded to include all MOUs. For Denton to enter the deregulated market, the additional operating expense would be substantial. The current and additional operating expenses could be spread across a smaller customer base should customers exercise their "power to choose." A reduction in DME's customer base would ensure that its remaining customers would have to absorb the increased costs in the form of higher electric rates. SOLUTION MOUs must preserve the local authority and governing structure to provide affordable electric service and energy portfolio diversity to its ratepayers. Page 13 Preserve Local Control of Denton Municipal Electric The City of Denton will support legislation that preserves the authority and governance structure of Municipally Owned Utilities that maintain a diversified energy portfolio. ISSUE During recent sessions of the Texas State Legislature, proposals were sent forth regarding Texas' Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) and its proposed soft target for non -wind renewable generation. Restricting the types of generation which would qualify for inclusion in the RPS essentially eliminates the authority of the governing bodies of Municipally Owned Utilities (MOU) to procure renewable energy sources that are financially feasible for the MOU to maintain a diversified energy portfolio. As such, the increased financial burden for the City of Denton would be passed through to Denton Municipal Electric (DME) ratepayers. The City of Denton is a nationally recognized environmental leader because of its continued diversification of DME's energy portfolio. At no additional cost to its ratepayers, DME provides more wind energy per capita than any other city in the United States and offers one of the largest rebates for the installation of renewable energy generation in Texas. The City of Denton and DME recognize the importance of reducing the overall dependence on fossil fuel generation, while, at the same time being fiscally responsible to its citizens and ratepayers. PROBLEM Any legislation that eliminates MOUs' authority to determine and maintain a diversified energy portfolio is fiscally irresponsible to the ratepayers. While some areas are more suited for specific types of renewable generation, not all utility scale generation is appropriate in all locations. For example, the cost of constructing and operating solar energy generation can be prohibitive. While solar costs have declined over recent years, the capital costs, scarcity of land, lack of electric infrastructure, and diminished levels of generation output, as compared to conventional generation, can substantially drive the cost per megawatt -hour of solar energy production upward. It is unrealistic and cost prohibitive for the State of Texas to expect MOUs to provide economically priced electricity to its citizens, while requiring a diversified energy portfolio that includes predetermined amounts of specific renewable sources without funding from the State. SOLUTION MOUs must preserve the local authority and governing structure to provide affordable electric service to its ratepayers. If energy portfolio diversity becomes a requirement, MOUs should have the option to determine which renewable generation source is most suited to each MOU's service area. If a generation requirement is mandated, it should be applied uniformly to investor owned utilities, cooperatives, and MOUs. In addition, the State should supplement local government funding of the construction of utility scale renewable generation to offset the impact to the citizens of Denton.

BACKGROUND CL /RPG Land Company, L.P., a Texas Limited Partnership ( "RPG "), has filed its "Petition for Consent to Include Additional Land in Denton County Fresh Water Supply District No. 7" ( "DCFWSD 47) on August 5, 2014. The real property affected is a certain 2.927 acres, known as Lot 1 -R, Block 1, LANTANA SCHOOL ADDITION, an addition to the County of Denton, Texas, according to the re -plat therefor recorded as Document 2013 -312, Official Records, Denton County, Texas (the "Subject Property "). The Subject Property affected is a small commercial tract that is wholly within Division 2 of the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction of the City of Denton. Before proceeding further, the City of Denton does not wish to serve this Subject Property with water or wastewater utility service. The Council has previously had the opportunity to, and declined to annex the subject real property. Both the Water and Wastewater Departments do not object to the Council granting its consent, as requested by the DCFWSD 47. In fact, the subject real property is outside of both the Denton Water and Wastewater CCN's. The landowner (RPG) has requested the DCFWSD 47 provide utility and other public infrastructure and services to the subject real property. There are no City of Denton water or wastewater facilities located on or near this real property. Texas law (Section 42.0425 of the Texas Local Government Code) requires that a political subdivision (such as the DCFWSD 47 in this case) notify the City in the event that the real property sought to be annexed is located within the extraterritorial jurisdiction of a city. In this case DCFWSD 47 has notified the City and has filed its "Consent" seeking the City's consent and permission for its inclusion of the Subject Property into the District's boundaries and has complied with Texas law regarding notice to the City. OPTIONS City Council may grant its consent to Denton County Fresh Water Supply District No. 7.; or it may not grant its consent City of Denton Page 1 of 2 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: ID 14 -0797, Version: 1 RECOMMENDATION City staff recommends that the Council grant its consent.

In support of this petition, Petitioner shows as follows: I. The District, to which the land hereinafter described is sought to be annexed, exists under the terms and provisions of Article XVI, Section 59 of the Constitution of Texas and Chapters 49 and 51, Texas Water Code, as amended, and was created by division election, dated May 9, 2000. Landowner is the sole owner and holder of fee simple title to all of the land sought to be annexed to the District, as indicated by the tax rolls of the Denton Central Appraisal District of Denton County, Texas. Landowner represents and warrants that there are no holders of liens against the land sought to be annexed. II. The land sought to be added to the District consists of one (1) tract of land containing approximately 2.927 acres of land in the aggregate, more or less, and lies wholly within Denton County, Texas. No part of said area is within the limits of any incorporated city or town. Under the provisions of Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes, Local Government Code, Section 42.001 et seq., as amended, said area is within the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City of Denton, Texas, and is not within such jurisdiction of any other city. All of the territory to be annexed may properly be annexed to the District. III. The land sought to be added to the area of the District is described by metes and bounds in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes. IV. The general nature of the work proposed to be done in the area sought to be annexed shall be the purchase, construction, acquisition, repair, extension and improvement of land, easements, works, improvements, facilities, plants, equipment and appliances necessary to: (1) provide a water supply for municipal, domestic and commercial purposes; (2) collect, transport, process, dispose of and control all domestic, industrial or communal wastes whether in fluid, solid or composite state; (3) gather, conduct, divert and control local storm water or other harmful excesses of water in the area; and (4) provide roads or turnpikes, or improvements in aid of roads or turnpikes. V. There is a necessity for the improvements above described for the following reasons. The area of the District is urban in nature, is within the growing environs of the City of Denton, Texas, and is in close proximity to populous and developed sections of Denton County. The land sought to be added to the District is not supplied with adequate water, sanitary sewer and drainage facilities and services and roads and turnpikes, nor is it presently economically feasible for such facilities to be provided to said land. The health and welfare of the present and future inhabitants of the District, the land sought to be added to the District and of territories adjacent thereto require the installation and acquisition of an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system and an adequate drainage system and roads and turnpikes for and within the land sought to be added to the District. A public necessity exists for the addition of the aforesaid lands to the District in order to provide for the purchase, construction, extension, improvement, maintenance and operation of such waterworks and sanitary sewer system and such drainage facilities, so as to promote and protect the purity and sanitary condition of the State's waters and the public health and welfare of the community. VI. It is estimated by the Petitioner, from such information as is available at this time, that the development contemplated within the proposed area to be annexed will be approximately -$0 -. WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully prays that this petition be granted in all respects and that the City of Denton, Texas, give its consent to the annexation of the aforesaid land in said District. -2- Dated this the�L2h day of December, 2013.

Landowner is the sole owner and holder of fee simple title to all of the land sought to be annexed to the District, as indicated by the tax rolls of the Denton Central Appraisal District of Denton County, Texas. Landowner represents and warrants that there are no holders of liens against the land sought to be annexed. II. The land sought to be added to the District consists of one (1) tract of land containing approximately 2.927 acres of land in the aggregate, more or less, and lies wholly within Denton County, Texas. No part of said area is within the limits of any incorporated city or town. Under the provisions of Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes, Local Government Code, Section 42.001 et seq., as amended, said area is within the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City of Denton, Texas, and is not within such jurisdiction of any other city. All of the territory to be annexed may properly be annexed to the District. III. The land sought to be added to the area of the District is described by metes and bounds in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes. IV. The general nature of the work proposed to be done in the area sought to be annexed shall be the purchase, construction, acquisition, repair, extension and improvement of land, easements, works, improvements, facilities, plants, equipment and appliances necessary to: (1) provide a water supply for municipal, domestic and commercial purposes; (2) collect, transport, process, dispose of and control all domestic, industrial or communal wastes whether in fluid, solid or composite state; (3) gather, conduct, divert and control local storm water or other harmful excesses of water in the area; and (4) provide roads or turnpikes, or improvements in aid of roads or turnpikes. V. There is a necessity for the improvements above described for the following reasons. The area of the District is urban in nature, is within the growing environs of the City of Denton, Texas, and is in close proximity to populous and developed sections of Denton County. The land sought to be added to the District is not supplied with adequate water, sanitary sewer and drainage facilities and services and roads and turnpikes, nor is it presently economically feasible for such facilities to be provided to said land. The health and welfare of the present and future inhabitants of the District, the land sought to be added to the District and of territories adjacent thereto require the installation and acquisition of an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system and an adequate drainage system and roads and turnpikes for and within the land sought to be added to the District. A public necessity exists for the addition of the aforesaid lands to the District in order to provide for the purchase, construction, extension, improvement, maintenance and operation of such waterworks and sanitary sewer system and such drainage facilities, so as to promote and protect the purity and sanitary condition of the State's waters and the public health and welfare of the community. VI. It is estimated by the Petitioner, from such information as is available at this time, that the development contemplated within the proposed area to be annexed will be approximately -$0 -. WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully prays that this petition be granted in all respects and that the City of Denton, Texas, give its consent to the annexation of the aforesaid land in said District. -2- Dated this the�L2h day of December, 2013.

The subject property is generally located at the northwest corner of Kings Row Drive and N. Loop 288, in the City of Denton, Denton County, Texas; and providing for a penalty in the maximum of $2,000.00 for violations thereof, severability, and an effective date (S 14- 0007). The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of this request with conditions (6 -1). BACKGROUND The proposed SUP is for the new DME Kings Row electrical substation. This substation is intended to replace the City's existing Kings Row substation located approximately three blocks west of the subject property. The request is part of an overall electrical transmission and distribution system upgrade as outlined in DME's 2013- 2017 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). This proposed substation is one (1) of forty -three (43) DME CIP projects which includes new substations, expansions to existing substations and various other improvements. The purpose of the new Kings Row Substation is to accommodate anticipated future load in the northeastern portions of the city, and to accommodate upgrade of the existing system from 67kV to 138kV. The size of the existing Kings Row substation property located west of the subject property is too small for the equipment needed for the upgrade and expansion of the substation would result in an unacceptable disruption to service. It is the intent of the applicant to decommission the existing equipment after completing construction of the proposed new substation. Current land uses surrounding the property include single- family residential to the south, undeveloped property zoned for single- family residential to the west, and N. Loop 288 frontage to the north and east. The applicant is proposing to construct a 10 -foot decorative precast concrete security wall around the entire site as a mitigation measure to screen the proposed substation. Exhibit 8 illustrates photos taken of similar security walls. Staff sent sixteen (16) certified notices of the public hearing to property owners within two hundred (200) feet of the subject property and fifty -nine (59) notices to residents and property owners within five hundred (500) feet of the property. As of this writing, staff has received five responses in opposition and one response neutral to the request. The applicant hosted a neighborhood meeting on October 23, 2014, to discuss the proposed substation location with surrounding residents.

Applicant: Teague Nall & Perkins, Inc. 1517 Centre Place Drive, Suite 320 Denton, TX 76205 Property Owner: Location: Size: Zoning Designation: Future Land Use: Case Planner: DRC Recommendation: Summary of Staff Analysis: City of Denton 215 E. McKinney Street Denton, TX 76201 The property is located at the northwest corner of Kings Row Drive and N Loop 288. 10.45+ Neighborhood Residential 3 (NR -3) and Neighborhood Residential 4 (NR -4) Neighborhood Centers Michael J. Bell The Development Review Committee (DRC) recommends approval of the SUP request, with conditions. The purpose of the proposed substation is to replace the existing Kings Row substation located three blocks west of the subject property. Once the new substation is constructed, the existing site will be decommissioned as a substation, but may continue to house transmission lines. Subchapter 35.5.5 of the Denton Development Code requires approval of an SUP for development of a basic utility in the NR -3 and NR -4 zoning district. The criteria for approval of an SUP is provided in Subchapter 35.6.4 of the Denton Development Code, which states that SUPS shall be issued only if all of the following conditions have been met: 1. That the specific use will be compatible with and not injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property nor significantly diminish or impair property values within the immediate vicinity; The proposed substation will be bordered on the north and east by the future N. Loop 288 frontage Road. To the south of the proposed substation is the Kingston Trace residential subdivision zoned NR -3 and the property to the west is currently being platted as the Hickory Hill residential subdivision, zoned NR -3 and NR -4. Although locating the electrical substation in an industrially or commercially zoned area would be the most appropriate, substations are essential infrastructure components that provide electric service to the citizens of Denton. The proposed substation will be screened with a 10 -ft. masonry wall around the perimeter of the entire substation. This would provide security, screen electrical components, and enhance the aesthetics of the property. 2. That the establishment of the specific use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property; The surrounding area consists of residential subdivisions, which would not be impeded by development of the proposed substation. 3. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary supporting facilities have been or will be provided; The proposed substation will have no impact on public infrastructure, as it does not use domestic water or wastewater. After construction is complete, there will be minimal truck traffic to the site. On average, a DME employee will visit the substation once per day to inspect and conduct any necessary maintenance. Additional workers may need to access the site in the event of a power failure. Access to the substation site will be improved per Code requirements. 4. The design, location and arrangement of all driveways and parking spaces provides for the safe and convenient movement of vehicular and pedestrian traffic without adversely affecting the general public or adjacent developments; Access into the electrical substation site will be restricted to authorized personnel only for maintenance or monitoring. There will be no public vehicular or pedestrian traffic and no parking spaces within the facility. Access will be taken from Kings Row Drive only. 5. That adequate nuisance prevention measures have been or will be taken to prevent or control offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise and vibration; After construction of the electrical substation, the project will not generate offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise or vibration. 6. That directional lighting will be provided so as not to disturb or adversely affect neighboring properties; and Lighting on site will be minimal and will not be visible from outside of the secured area. Any additional lighting will be directional lighting aimed at the interior of the site. 7. That there is sufficient landscaping and screening to ensure harmony and compatibility with adjacent property. The landscaping proposed will meet the requirements of the NR -4 zoning district. The minimum landscaped area required is 60% and the applicant proposes over 90 %. The NR -6 zoning district requires 50% tree canopy coverage, which will be provided by preserving the heavily treed stream along the western edge of the subject property. Findings of Fact 1. The request is for a Specific Use Permit (SUP) to allow a Basic Utility (DME Substation) on 10.45 acres. 2. Denton Plan: a. The Future Land Use designation on the property is "Neighborhood Centers. " Development of an electric substation in this area will provide electric infrastructure to eventual Neighborhood Center Development. 3. Existing Site Conditions: a. The subject property is currently undeveloped. The subject property is bordered on the north and east by the future N. Loop 288 frontage road. To the south is the Kingston Trace subdivision and to the west is being developed as the Hickory Hill residential subdivision. b. Surrounding land uses include single-family residential to the south and west. C. Adjacent zoning districts include NR -3 to the west and south and NR -4 to the north and east across N. Loop 288. 4. Infrastructure: a. The site is not platted. Preliminary and final platting is required prior to any additions /improvements to the property and prior to the issuance of building permits. b. No domestic water use is anticipated as part of the development. C. No domestic sewer use is anticipated as part of the development. d. Kings Row Dive is classified as a Residential Avenue Collector (65 foot right -of -way) and a partially improved perimeter street per the City of Denton Mobility Plan. Due to the low volume of trips generated by his development, no improvements to the street will be required. Thirty -two and a half feet (32.5 feet) of right -of -way dedication from the centerline of Kings Row Dive will be required upon platting. e. The future frontage road of N. Loop 288is classified as a Collector Street per the City of Denton Mobility Plan. Due to the low volume of trips generated, no construction of this frontage road will be required. Approximately 2.497 acres of right -of -way will be dedicated upon platting. Development Review Committee Based upon the information provided by the applicant and a recent site visit, the Development Review Committee finds that the request IS CONSISTENT with the surrounding land uses and general character of the area, IS CONSISTENT with the Denton Plan, and IS CONSISTENT with the Denton Development Code. The Development Review Committee (DRC) recommends approval of the SUP request, with the following condition: 1. A perimeter masonry security wall shall be constructed with a minimum height of ten (10) feet. 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.

Hold a public hearing and consider making a recommendation to City Council regarding a Specific Use Permit (SUP) allow a "Basic Utility;" a Denton Municipal Electric (DME) electrical substation, on aproximately 7.953 acres of land generally located at the northwest corner of Kings Row Drive and N. Loop 288. The site is located within a Neighborhood Residential 3 (NR -3) and Neighborhood Residential (NR -4) zoning district. (S 14 -0007, DME Kings Row, Mike Bell) This agenda item was heard before Public Hearing Item 4A. Lockley introduced Bell. Bell provided the location map, site photos, and vicinity map. The existing Kings Row substation is approximately 1,600 feet to the west of the proposed substation. The surrounding uses include: too the north and east is Loop 277 with farm and ranch improvements. To the west is undeveloped land and single- family residence. To the south is single - family residence. Bell provided a photo of the proposed buffer wall. Bell stated per Subchapter 35.3.4.B.2 of the Denton Development Code lists the general approval criteria for Specific Use Permits (SUP). The criteria relevant to an SUP are listed as follows: b. The proposed SUP meets the criteria set forth in Subchapter 6, and conforms to the purpose and intent of the Denton Plan; and c. The proposed SUP facilitates the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewer, schools, parks, and other public requirements and public convenience. Staff sent out 16 Public Hearing notices to property owners within 200 feet of the subject site, and 59 courtesy notices to property owners within 500 feet of the subject site. At the time of this presentation staff received two (2) returned responses in opposition to the request and one (1) neutral to the request. Prior to the Public Hearing, staff has received three (3) more returned responses in opposition to this request. On January 13, 2014, the Public Utilities Board (PUB) recommended approval of purchasing this site for a substation. On February 2, 2014, the City Council approved the purchase of the site for a substation. The Development Review Committee recommends approval of this request based on the following condition: 1. a perimeter masonry screening wall shall be constructed with a minimum height of ten (10) feet. Strange questioned the number of individuals that attended the neighborhood meeting and what were their concerns. Bell stated their concerns were drainage issues associated with the site, and the effect on property values. Strange questioned the height of the proposed towers; Bell deferred to Chuck Sears with Denton Municipal Electric. Sears stated the poles would be approximately 158 feet in height. They range in transmission line size from 95 -115 feet. He stated the pole on the southeast corner of the lot would be the tallest at approximately 115 foot. Strange questioned if the neighbors are aware of the pole height. Sears stated he is not certain; the original public meetings were held during the design portion of the process. Bentley stated there are a lot of concerns about the location; he stated he thought a few years back the previous location was changed due to public outreach about not wanting the substation on Nottingham Drive. Bell stated he is aware of several meetings that were held years prior to this one. He stated he isn't fully aware of the history. Brian Daskam, Denton Municipal Electric (DME), stated this substation and the transmission lines were handled together, there were four public meetings. Daskam stated it was originally proposed further to the west and citizens responded to City Council to move the substation further east. This is where it is being proposed now; Bentley acknowledged. Dudowicz questioned where the incoming lines would be coming to this site. Sears stated they are in and out of Loop 288; they would be coming from south to the substation and then will leave the site and run to the north side of Loop 288. They would then proceed around the Loop 288 to the Denton North substation at Locust Street. Reece opened the Public Hearing. Linda Carrasco, 3705 Cooper Branch East, Denton, Texas. Carrasco stated herself and the other neighbors didn't receive input on this proposed site. The citizens responded to place the site to the east, so now it is proposed to be placed to the east. She stated those citizens and these citizens object to the proposed poles. She stated there are a lot of negative effects that could come from a neighboring substation to your residence. The main concern is that north Denton has a lot of empty parcels, why couldn't the substation get placed on one of those sites. She stated the existing substation on Kings Row is in poor condition. There are rental properties next to the site because no one wants to purchase a site that closed to a substation. This will cause property values to decrease. Jeffrey Totter, 3701 Cooper Branch East, Denton, Texas. He stated he resides within 200 foot of the subject site. He stated he is opposed because of the following reasons: unsightly appearance, 115 foot poles, and resale value, potential property value to decrease, property tax increase, and the concrete wall isn't appealing. Totter stated his wife and daughter are at their residence a lot of time, there are a lot of safety and health issues concerned with a substation neighboring residence. He discussed electromagnetic fields, and the amount of electricity being pumped through the lines. He stated his main concern with this proposal is the health risk. There was no one else to speak on the item; Reece closed the Public Hearing. Conner questioned Sears if they address the issue in regards to the electromagnetic fields and other health concerns with the stations. Sears stated they aren't the expert in that portion of the field. He stated there is staff that has worked close to substations their entire lives and there is no evidence that can uncover an increase in health issues. He stated research shows that hair dryers produce a high level of electromagnetic fields. He stated their research doesn't address the health concern due to the amount of distance between the poles and the ground. Briggle questioned when this land was purchased by the City. Daskam stated City Council held a second public hearing on November 15, 2011, to purchase the site. It was approved at that meeting, and the site was purchased soon after that date. Briggle questioned Bentley's discussion in regards to the site being proposed at another location prior to this site. She stated there are a lot of trees on the proposed site that would be interfered with during the development of the substation. Daskam stated the site to the west that contains fewer trees was their original plan; based on public input at the time they suggested it move further east. At that point, City Council pushed DME to move the site to the east. He stated the same owner owns all that land and it was the owner's preference to move further west. Daskam requested Sears to speak on the consideration for the land to the north. Sears identified off the map provided to the west where the other existing substation is located. He stated it is more economical to place the site where it is proposed. When the site is moved further away the cost increases and those costs have to be recovered in rate increases. He stated at the time there were individuals that attended the public meetings and provided feedback. He stated they might not all be the same individuals over time; however, those sites were notified. Strange questioned since these are normally located next to neighborhoods; is there any compensation to offer the homeowners for the potential loss of property values and other reasons. Daskam stated his understanding is that it would be prohibited by state law for those offerings. Bentley stated years prior there was a substation on Loop 288 that backed directly up to a neighborhoods fence line; this proposed site at least has a street separating the site. He stated the previous process was on the front page of the newspaper and went through the public hearing process; there are only so many locations the substation could be moved to. Bentley thanked the citizens for their concerns. He stated a majority of those issues were probably hashed out over time during the public hearing process. Commissioner Brian Bentley motioned, Commissioner Devin Taylor seconded to approve this request based on staff's condition: 1. a perimeter masonry screening wall shall be constructed with a minimum height of ten (10) feet. Motion approved (6 -1). Commissioner Brian Bentley, aye, Commissioner Devin Taylor, aye, Commissioner Amber Briggle, aye, Commissioner Frank Dudowicz, aye, Commissioner Frank Conner, aye, and Chair Thom Reece, aye. Commissioner Jim Strange, nay. sAlegakour docu vents \ordinances \14 \s14 -0007 ordinance.docx Exhibit 11 Draft Ordinance 11N 1711` / ►3-41ANX1I AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS, PROVIDING A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT TO ALLOW A "BASIC UTILITY," A DENTON MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC (DME) ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION, ON APPROXIMATELY 10.45 ACRES OF LAND WITHIN A NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTIAL 3 (NR -3) AND A NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTIAL 4 (NR -4) ZONING DISTRICT.

Substations are nodes on transmission systems where transmission lines are interconnected, where voltage is stepped down to the level required for distribution to customers, and where distribution feeder circuit breakers are located. Substations are essential components of power system infrastructure. Without the transformers, switches, circuit breakers, busses, and the protection and control systems that are installed in substations, power could not be provided to customers. From a technical standpoint, there are three major factors that must be considered in selection of a substation site. They are access, availability of transmission resources, and proximity to distribution lines that could be served. Access is required that can support the weight of trucks that deliver the transformers and other equipment to the site. The roadway and entrance to the station must be all- weather so that the station can be accessed regardless of conditions by any type of vehicle at any time. Without a transmission source, there can be no substation. Transmission is the mass delivery system that gets power to the site. If transmission is not available on the site, it must be constructed to the site. Similarly for distribution, the point of having a substation is to provide power to distribution lines that can deliver electricity to customers. If such lines are not available near a site, construction is required to interconnect to where ever they are. Construction of access features, transmission lines, and distribution lines clearly affect cost and can have a significant impact on surrounding land use. Project Description /Summary The proposed Kings Row Substation will replace the existing substation situated three blocks west on Kings Row. The project, as planned, will include three transformers and three control enclosures. Some of the substation metal structures will be approximately 65' tall and the transmission poles as much as 95' tall. Visually, the new substation will be similar to other substations around Denton, the most recent example being the new Cooper Creek Substation that is located on Audra Lane and Loop 288 East. Site Location / Site History The proposed site for the Kings Row Substation is on a 10.56 -acre triangularly- shaped tract at the northwest corner of East Loop 288 and Kings Row. The property is not platted, and the tract is primarily zoned NR -4, with a small portion of the site at the northern end zoned NR -3. Both zoning categories contemplate a residential use. Basic utility facilities such as a substation are allowed uses in this zoning category with a Specific Use Permit. The specific location for the substation on the site is constrained by the shape of the tract, the presence of an Environmentally Sensitive Area (Stream Buffer) along the west side of the site, and the future "backage road" right -of -way adjacent to Loop 288, as shown on the City of Denton Mobility Plan. The location also essentially avoids a drainage channel and a Zone A floodplain on the site. This substation is located at the northern end of the Spencer to Kings Row 69 kV Transmission Line project, also known as the "Purple Line ", presented to the public in several public meetings in early 2012. Both the Public Utility Board and City Council have approved the site for construction of the substation. Page 1 of 5 The entire site is approximately 10.56 acres in size. The fenced substation area will be approximately 2.5 acres. The substation will be enclosed and secured from public access by a 10 -foot decorative precast concrete security wall colored to simulate rock construction. A site plan that shows the planned arrangement of the site is part of this application. Surrounding Property Uses The property is bounded on the west by undeveloped farm land that is zoned NR -3. Across Kings Row to the south is the Kingston Trace Addition, a residential neighborhood zoned NR -4. The northeastern side of the tract is adjacent to Loop 288, which is TxDOT right -of -way. Existing Site Conditions The existing topography of the site slopes from Loop 288 on the northeast toward an existing small creek along the west side of the site. This creek is designated as an Environmentally Sensitive Area — Stream Buffer by the City of Denton. FMEA maps also designate a Zone A (approximate study) along the stream. Storm water on and across the site is currently primarily overland flow, with the exception of the stream described above. Virtually no runoff enters the site other than in the aforementioned stream. The site is currently undeveloped, and contains no buildings or other structures. It does contain what appears to be an old well, and is fairly heavily wooded. Most of the trees are along the stream and at the north end of the site. There is of course no existing vehicular traffic on the site itself. Adjacent circulation consists of traffic on Loop 288, which is a four -lane TxDOT highway, and Kings Row, which is currently a two -lane rural roadway section. There are no sidewalks on either street adjacent to the site. The Denton Mobility Plan designates Kings Row as a Residential Avenue Collector Street, which is an undivided collector street with a 65' right -of -way width. As an undeveloped property, there are currently no designated recreational or preservation areas on the site. Existing water and sanitary sewer facilities are adjacent to the site, and there is no plan to construct addition water or sewer with this substation. The substation will not be a manned station and will not have domestic water or sewer needs. Proposed Site Conditions The proposed land use will be an electrical substation which is allowed in the NR -4 zoning category with a Specific Use Permit. Proposed topography will generally match the natural lay of the land, though the substation will have a flatter slope than the existing terrain, which will require a retaining wall along most of the west side of the substation site itself That wall will be no more than about three feet high. There will also be a retaining wall along the east side of the site, which will be as much as eight feet tall. All flow from the site will discharge to the existing stream. A permeable rock surface will be installed over the entire substation inside the concrete security fence, with the exception of the concrete access road around a portion of the inside perimeter of the substation. Runoff will filter through the rock and follow the subgrade to discharge to the stream. Consequently, there will be no measureable increase in runoff due to construction of the facility. Storm water detention is not anticipated. Page 2 of 5 Areas outside the secured area will be vegetated with native grasses and trees. Access to the facility will be on the south side of the substation as shown on the site plan, from Kings Row. The substation will be unmanned except during the infrequent visits which are required for operation of equipment, for inspections, for testing, and when maintenance is required. Routine traffic in and out of the site will generally consist of one service vehicle per week. Substations are not public facilities but are restricted areas where significant measures are taken to exclude unauthorized personnel. Access to the secured area (inside the substation security fence) will be restricted to authorized or escorted personnel only. Pedestrian traffic onto and within the property outside the perimeter wall will be intentionally discouraged because of safety and security concerns. No parking spaces are designated on the site, as service vehicles can park anywhere on the site. Neither domestic water service nor sanitary sewer service are necessary to the site. Proposed Mitigation Measures The proposed substation, by its very nature, will be compatible with adjacent property uses in a number of ways. Because the site is unmanned and infrequently visited, there will be no traffic or dust related nuisances. The substation does not make noise, and does not generate odors or fumes. Lighting on the site will be minimal, and will meet or exceed the requirements of the applicable zoning category. Though no buffer is required by the Denton Development Code, existing trees north and west of the actual substation site will be left natural to the extent possible, which will provide visual screening for future development to the west. In addition, a 10' high concrete security /screening wall will be built around the substation site. This wall will serve as a visual buffer as well, and will be constructed to simulate a rock wall. Consistency with the Denton Development Code All electric utilities must design and construct power systems that provide the performance that is specified in federal and state standards (FERC, NERC, ERCOT, TRE). State law requires that municipally owned utilities construct facilities that at least observe the minimum clearances and practices stated in the National Electrical Safety Code. Standards for substation security fencing do not allow any climbing aids either in the type of fence construction or in any object near the fence. Clearly trees could be a climbing aid should they be in immediate proximity to the fence or by being allowed to have limbs that are close to or overhanging a fence. To avoid future problems, DME's position is to require a minimum clear area of 20' outside a substation fence to the edge of any mature tree canopy, existing or planted. To protect the transmission lines, a 75' wide easement is the common standard, and this easement is to be kept clear of trees and tree canopy. Where the transmission lines traverse the substation site, the area within the transmission easements, within the substation itself, and within the 20' clear buffer around the substation must be kept clear of trees. The landscape plan submitted as part of this SUP package is intended to honor those limitations and still provide the landscape buffer and tree canopy required by the DDC. The landscape plan submitted with this application is based on treating the entire secured area of the site as a transmission easement, along with those areas outside the secured site that fall within the transmission easements. Tree preservation standards will not apply to substation sites since station sites are part of the DME CIP which serves as a utility master plan (see DDC Section 35.13.7.A.2.c.v.). Mitigation for tree removal is not required. However, compliance with the Landscape Ordinance (Chapter 13 of the DDC) is required. As a result, tree canopy, buffers, and landscape area minimum requirements will be met. Specific Use Permit Conditions The Denton Development Code outlines specific approval criteria for a Specific Use Permit. Taken from the Specific Use Permit Checklist, these criteria are addressed below: Page 3 of 5 A. That the use would be in conformance with all standards within the zoning district in which the use is proposed to be located, and in conformance with the Denton Plan and federal, state or local law. This proposed substation site is predominantly zoned NR -4. This site will exceed the minimum general regulations for NR -4 such as lot size and setbacks. Since the minimum landscaped area in Chapter 5 of the Denton Development Code is based on pervious area, which includes the permeable rock surface inside the station, both the maximum lot coverage and minimum landscaped area are greatly exceeded. In addition, the landscape plan will meet the requirements of Chapter 13 of the DDC. Minimum landscaped area (generally interpreted in Chapter 5 as live planted areas) will meet or exceed the 40% required, and the tree canopy (a combination of existing and planted trees) will meet or exceed the 50% required B. A specific use permit shall be issued only if all of the following conditions have been met: L That the specific use will be compatible with and not injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property nor significantly diminish or impair property values within the immediate vicinity; Because the proposed substation site will not generate noise, odors, light, or traffic, and will be screened from view to the extent possible, the substation will not in any way diminish or limit the use and enjoyment of adjacent properties. In many ways, because this substation is a desirable neighbor because of the minimal impact it will have on surrounding properties. 2. That the establishment of the specific use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property; There is nothing about the proposed construction of the substation at this location that would impede future development of the surrounding vacant properties. Existing trees will remain along the west side of the site, providing a denser and more natural buffer than any planted buffer required in the Code. 3. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary supporting facilities have been or will be provided, The proposed substation imposes virtually no impact on public infrastructure, as it does not use domestic water or wastewater, there is virtually no traffic to the site and it generates virtually no additional runoff No supporting facilities are needed for this site other than the future electric transmission line. 4. The design, location and arrangement of all driveways and parking spaces provides for the safe and convenient movement of vehicular and pedestrian traffic without adversely affecting the general public or adjacent developments; Access to the substation is intentionally restricted to authorized personnel. There will be no public vehicular or pedestrian traffic on the site, and no parking spaces within the facility, since the site is only visited for maintenance or monitoring. The access drive from a public street will be designed to accommodate the large trucks that could be necessary for future equipment replacement. 5. That adequate nuisance prevention measures have been or will betaken to prevent or control offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise and vibration; As indicated above, the substation site will not generate odors, fumes, dust, noise or vibration, so no prevention measures have been taken. 6. That directional lighting will be provided so as not to disturb or adversely affect neighboring properties, and, Page 4 of 5 The substation site will be protected by a 10' security fence, and except for emergencies will not be visited by service personnel at night. Accordingly, virtually no lighting is provided on the site 7. That there is sufficient landscaping and screening to ensure harmony and compatibility with adjacent property. The landscaping to be provided will meet or exceed the requirements of the DDC, and coupled with the security fence, will provide a pleasing view from adjacent properties. C. That adequate capacity of infrastructure can and will be provided to and through the subject property. As indicated above, no additional infrastructure is needed to support the proposed substation. The existing water and sewer lines that traverse the site will remain. D. That the Special Use is compatible with and will not have an adverse impact on the surrounding area. The proposed substation will not generate objectionable noise, odors, light, or traffic, and will be screened on all four sides with trees and other plantings, and will be enclosed within a 10' security /screening fence. It will not increase runoff significantly. There will simply be no adverse impact on the surrounding area. Page 5 of 5 Exhibit 7 DME CIP Plan 2 7" ........... . . . . . ........

McKinney St. Denton, Texas 76201 www.cityofdenton.com D EN'FON File #: S14 -0006, Version: 1 Legislation Text Agenda Information Sheet DEPARTMENT: Planning and Development CM /ACM: John Cabrales, Jr. Date: December 2, 2014 SUBJECT Hold a public hearing and consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas providing a Specific Use Permit (SUP) to allow a "Basic Utility;" a Denton Municipal Electric (DME) electrical substation, on approximately 10.372 acres of land within a Neighborhood Residential 6 (NR -6) zoning district. The subject property is generally located on the east side of Geesling Road, approximately 600 feet north of Blagg Road and 1,800 feet south of University Drive (US 380), in the City of Denton, Denton County, Texas; and providing for a penalty in the maximum amount of $2,000.00 for violations thereof, severability, and an effective date (S 14- 0006). The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of this request with conditions (7 -0). BACKGROUND The proposed SUP is for the DME North Lakes electrical substation. This new substation is part of an overall electrical transmission and distribution system upgrade as outlined in DME's 2013- 2017 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The proposed substation is one (1) of forty -three (43) DME CIP projects which includes new substations, expansions to existing substations and various other improvements. The purpose of the new ARCO Substation is to accommodate anticipated future load in the eastern portions of the city, and to accommodate upgrade of the existing system from 67kV to 138kV. There is currently an existing substation south of the subject property on the northeast corner of Blagg Road and Geesling Road. The lot of the existing substation is too small for the equipment needed for the upgrade, and expansion of the existing substation would result in an unacceptable disruption to service. It is the intent of the applicant to decommission the existing equipment after completing construction of the new substation, see Exhibit 2. Current land uses surrounding the property include mostly large, undeveloped tracts. Exceptions include two rural, single- family homes to the south and a distribution center to the southwest. The applicant is proposing to construct a 10 -foot high decorative precast concrete security wall around the entire site as mitigation to help screen the proposed substation. Exhibit 8 illustrates photos taken of similar security walls. Staff sent seven (7) certified notices of the public hearing to property owners within two hundred (200) feet of the subject property and five (5) notices to residents and property owners within five hundred (500) feet of the property. As of this writing, staff has received one response neutral to the request from the property owner north of the subject property. The applicant organized a neighborhood meeting on December 3, 2013, at which several location options were presented to surrounding residents. The subject property was selected as the preferred site. City of Denton Page 1 of 3 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: S14 -0006, Version: 1 OPTIONS 1. Approve as submitted 2. Approve subject to conditions 3. Deny. 4. Postpone consideration. 5. Table item. RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of this request (7 -0), subject to the condition below: 1. A perimeter masonry screening wall shall be constructed with a minimum height of ten (10) feet. The Development Review Committee recommends approval of this request, subject to the above mentioned condition. ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT Not Applicable.

Subchapter 35.5.5 of the Denton Development Code requires approval of an SUP for development of a basic utility in a NR -6 zoning district. The criteria for approval of an SUP is provided in Subchapter 35.6.4 of the Denton Development Code, which states that SUPS shall be issued only if all of the following conditions have been met: 1. That the specific use will be compatible with and not injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property nor significantly diminish or impair property values within the immediate vicinity; The proposed substation will be located within a predominantly undeveloped area of the city, which is planned for moderate density development. Although locating the electrical substation in an industrially or commercially zoned area will be the most appropriate, substations are essential infrastructure components that provide electric service to the citizens of Denton. Various options for the new substation site were presented to the public at an Open House on December 3, 2013, and this location was selected as the most preferable option due to a number of considerations including cost, proximity to the existing substation, and proximity to existing transmission lines. The new substation would be screened with a 10 -ft. masonry wall around the perimeter of the entire substation. This would provide security, screen electrical components, and enhance the aesthetics of the property. The existing substation is screened by an 8 ft. chain link, razor wire fence. To the north and east of the proposed substation are large undeveloped properties. Currently zoned NR -6, these areas are proposed to receive a "Moderate Residential" future land use designation as part of Denton Plan 2030. This would permit single- family (detached) and townhomes between four and twelve units per acre. As a condition of this SUP a 10 ft. masonry wall is requested to buffer the substation from future development. Directly adjacent to the south of the proposed substation is an existing DME and Texas Municipal Power Agency (TMPA) substation. Once the proposed substation is completed, the applicant proposes to decommission the DME portion of this substation. Further south across Blagg Road are two, rural single- family properties. One is located within an RD -5X zoning district and the other is still within the City of Denton Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ). This area is proposed to receive a "Low Residential" future land use designation as part of Denton Plan 2030. Low Residential permits a density between one and four dwelling units per acre, consistent with the current Neighborhood Residential 1 (NR -1) through Neighborhood Residential 4 (NR -4) zoning districts. The 10 ft. masonry wall condition is proposed to buffer these residential homes to the south. The properties to the west of the proposed substation across Geesling Road include a large, undeveloped property within the ETJ and an industrial property zoned RD -5X that is currently occupied by Lily of the Desert, a producer of aloe vera products. The 10 ft. masonry wall is proposed to conceal much of the substation components from view of these properties. 2. That the establishment of the specific use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property; The surrounding area primarily consists of large, undeveloped tracts of land. These sites, likely to developed with commercial or mixed use developments, would not be impeded by development of the proposed substation. 3. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary supporting facilities have been or will be provided; The proposed substation will have no impact on public infrastructure, as it does not use domestic water or wastewater. After construction of the substation is complete, there will be minimal truck traffic to the site. On average, a DME employee will visit the site once a day to inspect and perform maintenance. Access to the substation site will be improved per Code requirements. 4. The design, location and arrangement of all driveways and parking spaces provides for the safe and convenient movement of vehicular and pedestrian traffic without adversely affecting the general public or adjacent developments; Access into the electrical substation site will be restricted to authorized personnel only for maintenance or monitoring. There will be no public vehicular or pedestrian traffic and no parking spaces within the facility. Access will be taken from Geesling Road. 5. That adequate nuisance prevention measures have been or will be taken to prevent or control offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise and vibration; After construction of the electrical substation, the project will not generate offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise or vibration. 6. That directional lighting will be provided so as not to disturb or adversely affect neighboring properties; and Lighting on site will be minimal and will not be visible from outside of the secured area. Any additional lighting will be directional lighting aimed at the interior of the site. 7. That there is sufficient landscaping and screening to ensure harmony and compatibility with adjacent property. The landscaping proposed will meet the requirements of the NR -6 zoning district. The minimum landscaped area required is 40% and the applicant proposes over 90 %. The NR -6 zoning district requires 40% tree canopy coverage which will be met by the preservation of existing trees along the eastern property line in addition to new plantings east of the substation. Findings of Fact 1. The request is for a Specific Use Permit (SUP) to allow a Basic Utility (DME Substation) on 10.372 acres. 2. Denton Plan: a. The Future Land Use designation on the property is "Neighborhood Centers. " 3. Existing Site Conditions: a. The subject property is currently undeveloped. There is an existing substation on northeast corner of Geesling Road and Blagg Road. The DME portion of the substation will be decommissioned upon construction of the proposed substation as part of this SUP request. b. Surrounding land uses include large agricultural properties to the north, east, and west. Directly to the south is the existing substation. Two rural, single-family homes are located further south across Blagg Road. These properties will be buffered by the construction of a 10 ft. masonry wall. C. Adjacent zoning districts include NR -6 to the north and east, RD -5X to the north, west, and south, and ETJ to the northwest and southeast. 4. Infrastructure: a. The site is not platted. Preliminary and final platting is required prior to any additions /improvements to the property and prior to the issuance of building permits. b. No domestic water use is anticipated as part of the development. C. No domestic sewer use is anticipated as part of the development. d. Geesling Road is classified as a Commercial Mixed Use Collector (73 ft. right -of -way) and an unimproved perimeter street per the City of Denton Mobility Plan. 36.5 ft of right -of -way dedication from the centerline of Geesling Road will be required upon platting.

Hold a public hearing and consider making a recommendation to City Council re _ ag rdin_ g a Specific Use Permit (SUP) to allow a "Basic Utility;" a Denton Municipal Electric (DME) electrical substation, on approximately 10.144 acres of land generally nerally located on the east side of Geesling Road, approximately 600 feet north of Blagg Road and 1,800 feet south of E. University Drive (US 380). The site is located within a Neighborhood Residential 6 (NR -6) zoning district. (514 -0006, DME ARCO, Mike Bell) Lockley introduced Bell. Bell provided the location map, site plan, and site photos. He provided an updated site plan during the Work Session that reflects Bentley's comment on the site plan. The surrounding uses include: the north and east are undeveloped, the west is industrial use, and the south is farm and ranch improvements. The site is zoned Neighborhood Residential 6. Bell provided a photo example of the proposed buffer wall. Bell stated per Subchapter 35.3.4.B.2 of the Denton Development Code lists the general approval criteria for Specific Use Permits (SUP). The criteria relevant to an SUP are listed as follows: b. The proposed SUP meets the criteria set forth in Subchapter 6, and conforms to the purpose and intent of the Denton Plan; and c. The proposed SUP facilitates the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewer, schools, parks, and other public requirements and public convenience. Staff sent out seven Public Hearing notices to property owners within 200 feet of the subject site, and five courtesy notices to property owners within 500 feet of the subject site. At this time staff has received no returned responses. Bell stated on January 13, 2014, the Public Utilities Board recommended approval of purchasing this site for a substation. On February 2, 2014, the City Council approved the purchase of the site for a substation. The Development Review Committee recommends approval of this request based on the following condition: 1. a perimeter masonry screening wall shall be constructed with a minimum height of ten (10) feet. Bell stated the applicant is present. Chair Reece opened the Public Hearing. Steve Bowles, 511 Magnolia Street, Denton, Texas. Bowles stated he is neither in favor or opposed to the request. He stated he owns the property to the north of the subject site, and he would like more information on the proposed buffer wall to be constructed. He stated based on information he gathered online there is a 20 foot buffer between his property and the fence line, and masonry wall. He questioned the placement of the buffer and who would maintain the buffer and grass. Bowles questioned where the transmission lines would be disbursed. Chuck Sears, Denton Municipal Electric, stated there is an existing substation. He identified on the map the existing substations and transmission poles. He stated as far as the buffer, there would be a 20 foot standard setback that contains a grassy area. It would be mowed and maintained. Bowles acknowledged. There was no one else to speak on the item. Chair Reece closed the Public Hearing.

Substations are nodes on transmission systems where transmission lines are interconnected, where voltage is stepped down to the level required for distribution to customers, and where distribution feeder circuit breakers are located. Substations are essential components of power system infrastructure. Without the transformers, switches, circuit breakers, busses, and the protection and control systems that are installed in substations, power could not be provided to customers. From a technical standpoint, there are three major factors that must be considered in selection of a substation site. They are access, availability of transmission resources, and proximity to distribution lines that could be served. Access is required that can support the weight of trucks that deliver the transformers and other equipment to the site. The roadway and entrance to the station must be all- weather so that the station can be accessed regardless of conditions by any type of vehicle at any time. Without a transmission source, there can be no substation. Transmission is the mass delivery system that gets power to the site. If transmission is not available on the site, it must be constructed to the site. Similarly for distribution, the point of having a substation is to provide power to distribution lines that can deliver electricity to customers. If such lines are not available near a site, construction is required to interconnect to where ever they are. Construction of access features, transmission lines, and distribution lines clearly affect cost and can have a significant impact on surrounding land use. Project Description /Summary The ARCO Substation project, as planned, will include four transformers, multiple 138kV circuit breakers, one control enclosure (approximately 60' long x 16' wide x 14' height), and four distribution switchgear enclosures (49' long x 14' wide x 14' height) for distributing power to customers. The station will be an interconnection point for multiple transmission lines. Visually, the new substation will be similar to other substations around Denton, the most recent example being the new Cooper Creek Substation that is located on Loop 288 East at Audra Lane. Site Location / Site History The proposed site for the ARCO Substation is on a 10 -acre vacant tract adjacent to an existing Texas Municipal Power Agency (TMPA) substation at the northeast corner of Blagg Road and Geesling Road. The property is not platted, and the tract is zoned NR -6, which contemplates a neighborhood residential use. Basic utility facilities such as a substation are allowed uses in this zoning category with a Specific Use Permit The site was selected because of its strategic location as part of the overall electrical transmission and distribution system as outlined in the Capital Improvement Plan, as a connection to the Oncor transmission line. Two existing transmission lines extend into Denton from the site, roadway access is available, and an existing distribution system is available. This substation is necessary to allow additional transmission lines to be terminated at the station. The existing site is far too small to allow for reconstruction on that site. Eventually the existing substation will be decommissioned. A neighborhood meeting was held on December 3, 2013 to present the project to surrounding property owners. Three property owners signed in, but none filled out comment cards. The project was presented to the Public Utility Board on January 13, 2014. Page 1 of 5 The site is approximately 10 acres in size, and the fenced substation area will be approximately 6.2 acres. A Minor plat will be prepared for the substation site, encompassing approximately 10 acres. The substation will be enclosed and secured from public access by a 10 -foot decorative precast concrete security wall colored to simulate rock construction. A site plan that shows the planned arrangement of the site is part of this application. Surrounding Property Uses The site is surrounded by undeveloped land, except for the existing TMPA substation on the south side of the site. As shown on the attached site plan, the property to the north is zoned RD -5X, which allows for large lot rural residential uses, and the property to the east is zoned as NR -6, which allows for higher density residential uses. The existing transmission line easement traverses this adjacent property. Existing Site Conditions The existing topography of the site slopes from northwest to southeast. There are no Environmentally Sensitive Areas on the site, nor are there any floodplains on the site. There are some scattered trees on the site, with some clustered along the north property line, and a row of existing trees along a portion of the east perimeter of the site. Many of the existing trees along the east side of the site will be preserved, but due to grading necessary to level the pad site, and due to the need to maintain a clear buffer between the trees and the substation, most of the trees on the site will be removed. Storm water on and across the site is currently conveyed as overland sheet flow. The site is currently undeveloped, and contains no buildings or other structures. There is of course no existing vehicular traffic on the site itself. Adjacent circulation consists of traffic on Geesling Road, and Blagg Road, both of which are currently two -lane rural roadway sections. There are no sidewalks on either street adjacent to the site. The Denton Mobility Plan designates Geesling Road as a Commercial Mixed Use Collector Street, which is an undivided collector street with a 73' right -of -way width. As an undeveloped property, there are currently no designated recreational or preservation areas on the site. There are no existing City of Denton utilities adjacent to the site. The nearest water and sanitary sewer lines are at the intersection of Geesling Road and US Highway 380 (University Drive), some two - thousand feet to the north. This substation site, however, will not be a manned station and will not have domestic water or sewer needs. Proposed Site Conditions The proposed land use will be an electrical substation, which is allowed in the NR -6 zoning category with a Specific Use Permit. Proposed topography will generally match the natural lay of the land. In order to reduce the grade across the site a significant cut will be made at the northwest corner of the site, to allow for surface grades of 2% to 3 %. Runoff will flow to the gentle swale existing along the east side of the. There is an existing roadside ditch along the east side of Geesling Road that will remain, and a culvert will be placed under the entry drive to accommodate that ditch. A permeable rock surface will be installed over the entire substation inside the concrete security fence, with the exception of the concrete access road around a portion of the inside perimeter of the substation. Runoff will filter through the rock and follow the subgrade to the swales. Consequently, there will be no measureable increase in runoff due to construction Page 2 of 5 of the facility. In fact, the rock will slow the water down such that the peak runoff from the site will be reduced to below pre - development levels. As a result, storm water detention is not anticipated. Areas outside the secured area will be vegetated with native grasses and trees, as shown on the landscape plan. Access to the facility will be on the west side of the substation as shown on the site plan, to Geesling Road. The substation will be unmanned except during the infrequent visits which are required for operation of equipment, for inspections, for testing, and when maintenance is required. Routine traffic in and out of the site will generally consist of one service vehicle per week. Substations are not public facilities but are restricted areas where significant measures are taken to exclude unauthorized personnel. Access to the secured area (inside the substation security fence) will be restricted to authorized or escorted personnel only. Pedestrian traffic onto and within the property outside the perimeter wall will be intentionally discouraged because of safety and security concerns. No sidewalks will be constructed to the substation site itself No parking spaces are designated on the site, as service vehicles can park anywhere on the site. Neither domestic water service nor sanitary sewer service are necessary to the site. Storm water will be conveyed around the perimeter of the substation to drain off -site to the southeast just as it does today. Proposed Mitigation Measures The proposed substation, by its very nature, will be compatible with adjacent property uses in a number of ways. Because the site is unmanned and infrequently visited, there will be no traffic or dust related nuisances. The substation does not make noise, and does not generate odors or fumes. Lighting on the site will be minimal, and will meet or exceed the requirements of the NR -6 zoning category. The site will be landscaped outside the limits of the substation and transmission lines to provide visual screening on all sides. In addition, the concrete security wall will be a visual buffer as well, and will be constructed to simulate a rock wall. Existing trees along the east property line will be preserved, and supplemented with additional trees to meet the 40% landscape area and the 50% tree canopy coverage required for the NR -6 zoning. These figures are calculated based only on the area of the site outside the secured area. Consistency with the Denton Development Code All electric utilities must design and construct power systems that provide the performance that is specified in federal and state standards (FERC, NERC, ERCOT, TRE). State law requires that municipally owned utilities construct facilities that at least observe the minimum clearances and practices stated in the National Electrical Safety Code. Standards for substation security fencing do not allow any climbing aids either in the type of fence construction or in any object near the fence. Clearly trees could be a climbing aid should they be in immediate proximity to the fence or by being allowed to have limbs that are close to or overhanging a fence. To avoid future problems, DME's position is to require a minimum clear area of 20' outside a substation fence to the edge of any mature tree canopy, existing or planted. To protect the transmission lines, a 75' wide easement is the common standard, and this easement is to be kept clear of trees and tree canopy. Where the transmission lines traverse the substation site, the area within the transmission easements, within the substation itself, and within the 20' clear buffer around the substation must be kept clear of trees. The landscape plan submitted as part of this SUP package is intended to honor those limitations and still provide the landscape area and tree canopy required by the DDC. The landscape plan submitted with this application is based on treating the entire secured area of the site as a transmission easement, along with those areas outside the secured site that fall within the transmission easements. Tree preservation standards will not apply to substation sites since station sites are part of the DME CIP which serves as a utility master plan (see DDC Section 35.13.7.A.2.c.v.). Mitigation for tree removal is not required. However, compliance with the Landscape Ordinance (Chapter 13 of the DDC) is required. As a result, tree canopy and landscape area minimum requirements will be met. Page 3 of 5 Specific Use Permit Conditions The Denton Development Code outlines specific approval criteria for a Specific Use Permit. Taken from the Specific Use Permit Checklist, these criteria are addressed below: A. That the use would be in conformance with all standards within the zoning district in which the use is proposed to be located, and in conformance with the Denton Plan and federal, state or local law. This proposed substation site is zoned NR -6. This site will greatly exceed the minimum general regulations for NR -6 such as lot size and. Since the minimum landscaped area in Chapter 5 of the Denton Development Code is based on pervious area, which includes the permeable rock surface inside the station, both the maximum lot coverage and minimum landscaped area are greatly exceeded. In addition, the landscape plan will meet the requirements of Chapter 13 of the DDC. Minimum landscaped area (generally interpreted in Chapter 5 as live planted areas) will meet or exceed the 40% required, and the tree canopy (a combination of existing and planted trees) will meet or exceed the 50% required. B. A specific use permit shall be issued only if all of the following conditions have been met: L That the specific use will be compatible with and not injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property nor significantly diminish or impair property values within the immediate vicinity; Because the proposed substation site will not generate noise, odors, light, or traffic, and will be screened from view to the extent possible, the substation will not in any way diminish or limit the use and enjoyment of adjacent properties. In many ways, because this substation is a desirable neighbor because of the minimal impact it will have on surrounding properties. 2. That the establishment of the specific use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property; Surrounding property will continue to have access to existing roadways, and the substation will not adversely affect access to utilities, nor will it impair drainage in any way. 3. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary supporting facilities have been or will be provided, The proposed substation imposes virtually no impact on public infrastructure, as it does not use domestic water or wastewater, there is virtually no traffic to the site and it generates virtually no additional runoff No supporting facilities are needed for this site other than the future electric transmission line. However, space has been allocated along the west side of the site (along Geesling Road) for a future water line. 4. The design, location and arrangement of all driveways and parking spaces provides for the safe and convenient movement of vehicular and pedestrian traffic without adversely affecting the general public or adjacent developments; Access to the substation is intentionally restricted to authorized personnel. There will be no public vehicular or pedestrian traffic on the site, and no parking spaces within the facility, since the site is only visited for maintenance or monitoring. The access drive from Geesling Road will be designed to accommodate the large trucks that could be necessary for future equipment replacement. 5. That adequate nuisance prevention measures have been or will betaken to prevent or control offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise and vibration; As indicated above, the substation site will not generate odors, fumes, dust, noise or vibration, so no prevention measures have been taken. Page 4 of 5 6. That directional lighting will be provided so as not to disturb or adversely affect neighboring properties, and, The substation site will be protected by a 10' security fence, and except for extreme emergencies will not be visited by service personnel at night. Accordingly, lighting in the station is kept to a minimum consistent with necessary security. Most of these lights will not be visible from outside the secure area. Other lighting that may be needed for security or emergencies will be directional lighting aimed at the interior of the site. 7. That there is sufficient landscaping and screening to ensure harmony and compatibility with adjacent property. The landscaping to be provided will meet or exceed the requirements of the DDC, and coupled with the security fence, will provide a pleasing view from adjacent properties. C. That adequate capacity of infrastructure can and will be provided to and through the subject property. As indicated above, no additional infrastructure is needed to support the proposed substation. The plat will show right -of -way to be dedicated for expansion of Geesling Road, in addition to a utility easement for the future 12" water line along Geesling Road. D. That the Special Use is compatible with and will not have an adverse impact on the surrounding area. The proposed substation will not generate objectionable noise, odors, light, or traffic, and will be screened on all four sides with trees and other plantings, and will be enclosed within a 10' security /screening fence. It will not increase runoff or adversely affect drainage in the area. There will simply be no adverse impact on the surrounding area.

BACKGROUND The Denton Municipal Electric (DME) Capital Improvement Plan includes a project to reconstruct Hickory Substation. The existing station capacity is inadequate for expected future load. Also, DME is working toward conversion of the 69KV transmission system to 138KV. Since this station is rated at 69KV it will need to be rebuilt to 138KV requirements. Rebuilding on the existing site is not feasible because of the space required for 138KV equipment. Exhibit 2 is a "Project Information" sheet that provides a project description, a discussion of need, and information on site selection. DME held an open house to inform the community regarding the siting of the proposed Hickory Substation reconstruction and received feedback. The meeting was held at the Center for the Visual Arts in Denton on the evening of September 30, 2014. Exhibit 7 "Open House Report" provides details on attendance and comments received. This information for this Open House included the siting of the Hickory substation. OPTIONS 1. Recommend approval to reconstruct Hickory Substation site on the site option commonly known as "Purple." 2. Do not recommend approval of substation site option commonly known as "Purple" and direct that other actions be taken. RECOMMENDATION In light of information received during the September 30th open house, the feedback received from the Public Utilities Board Public Hearing, and the unanimous 6 -0 vote from the PUB on November 10, 2014, DME recommends that the Denton City Council adopt a resolution approving site option "Purple" as the site to reconstruct the Hickory Substation. ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT (Contingent on site selection) PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (Council, Boards, Commissions) The Public Utilities Board and City Council were given prior notice of the September 30th open house via City of Denton Page 1 of 2 Printed on 11/26/2014 File #: ID 14 -0764, Version: 1 email.

Reconstruction of the Hickory Substation is one project that is necessary. Information on the project components is presented herein and will consist of the following: ➢ Reconstruction of the existing Hickory Substation to accommodate upgrades from a 69,000 volt (69kV) to 138,000 volts (138kV) substation. ➢ Rerouting of transmission and distribution lines into the new substation. ➢ Retiring and removal of the equipment in the existing station. The reconstruction of the Hickory Substation from 69kV to 13 8k will require a larger footprint space. A minimum of 1.9 acres is needed to accommodate the upgraded 138 kV system equipment. If additional acreage is acquired it would allow for increased operational flexibility and future upgrades to handle increased electrical loads in the area. Several alternatives have been considered as possible locations for reconstruction of the Hickory Substation. A map is attached that shows location options that are currently being considered. A substation location could be chosen that is different from those locations shown on the map. All facilities will be owned and operated by DME. Why is the project needed? DME transmission lines are interconnected with the statewide transmission system which forms a network, delivering power from generation sites to load centers where it is then distributed to local customers. This interconnected transmission network provides redundancy to the system and benefits all utilities in the Denton area. State and federal laws mandate specific and well defined performance requirements for utility systems. DME must comply with these requirements not only to ensure regulatory compliance, but more importantly, to maintain the best reliability of electric service to our customers. Annual studies are completed to determine whether or not each transmission line segment and substation section provide the performance required by the rules. If performance deficiencies are identified, projects Project Information Hickory Substation Project September 30, 2014 must be defined and constructed that resolve the deficits. In determining a solution for a deficiency, alternatives are considered that take into account benefits, impacts, and costs. In the case of Hickory Substation, there are three primary reasons that the station must be rebuilt. First, the capacities of the electrical bus (conductors), circuit breakers, and switches in the station are no longer adequate for the electrical flow that the station could experience. Second, DME is working toward conversion of the 69kV transmission system to 138kV in the 2017 timeframe. The existing Hickory station is only rated for 69kV operation. The 138kV equipment is larger, and conductor spacings must be greater because of the higher voltage. The larger equipment and spacing cannot be accommodated within the footprint of the existing equipment. Thirdly, stations that operate at 138kV are configured differently than the configuration of the original construction to provide better flexibility and to meet additional performance standards. The revised station arrangement will require additional space. Currently there is not adequate room within the existing substation site to make the needed upgrades. Additionally, it will not be possible to reconstruct the station on the existing site without extended outages that would have to last for several consecutive months at a time. The existing station equipment would have to be removed to make room for reconstruction because of conflicts between the new installation and the existing structures. Lengthy outages and the associated loss of capacity to serve the central area of the city are unacceptable reliability risks. Consequently, DME is opposed to use of the existing site for the reconstruction. Preliminary Substation Options This substation must be located along or near the existing Hickory Substation and existing Locust- Hickory 69kV transmission line. Five preliminary options are under consideration for reconstruction of the substation. ➢ Purple Option - Reconstruction on a site that includes existing single - family residences and an open site, east of the existing substation (just east of Bonnie Brae and south of W. Oak St.). ➢ Green Option - Reconstruction on a site that includes several existing multifamily complexes and an open site, east of the existing substation (east of Bonnie Brae and south of W. Oak St.). ............ .. ....... ..... ---" r GGWA "POOW MAP ➢ Orange Option - Reconstruction on a site that includes several single - family residences and a commercial business, northeast of the existing substation (just east of Bonnie Brae and north of W. Oak St.). ➢ Blue Option - Reconstruction on a site that includes existing multifamily complexes and an open site under construction, southeast of the existing substation (just east of Bonnie Brae and south of W. Hickory St.). ➢ Yellow Option - Reconstruction on a site that includes several existing multifamily complexes, a church, and an open site, southeast of the existing substation (just east of Bonnie Brae and south of Stella St.). The attached map illustrates the preliminary options that have been identified at this time. Based on public input, a substation site could be chosen that is different from those locations shown on the map. All new facilities will be owned and operated by DME. PJ Project Information Hickory Substation Project The Site Selection Process September 30, 2014 The analysis phase of project development only identifies that a project is needed, what the project should accomplish, and a potential area for the needed project. It does not mandate the use of a specific site. The site selection process, which includes requesting public input, is employed to determine the location for the new substation. Preliminary options have been identified for the substation reconstruction and are depicted on the attached map. Identification of these sites is the starting point for the selection process. This open house is intended to communicate the need for the project and to provide an opportunity for individuals to learn about the project and make comments. Potentially affected land owners and those within 500 feet of any of the optional sites have been notified by mail of the project and the public open house. The City Council has approved the substation site selection process. This process presents the public with several opportunities to provide input. The first step is for DME to conduct an open house where information is made available on the proposed project, questions may be asked, recommendations can be made, and written or verbal comments may be provided. Interested individuals may also contact DME at any time. Contact information for DME is provided below and on the comment form handed out at the open house. After all comments received at the open house for a project are compiled, DME will consider all comments, complete additional reviews as appropriate, and will provide a recommendation to the Public Utilities Board (PUB). During its consideration of DME's proposal, the PUB will conduct a public hearing and direct DME to take additional actions or recommend a site for consideration by the City Council. During its consideration of the PUB's findings, the City Council will again conduct a public hearing to receive comments from interested residents. Ultimately, the City Council will select the site for the Hickory Substation relocation. DME will provide notice by mail for the open house and for the PUB and City Council public hearings. DME's contact for questions: Brian Daskam Energy Services Development Officer Phone: (940) 349 -7567 Email: Brian .Daskam&cityofdenton.com Please visit the project website for additional information, updated project information, and an online comment form www.cityofdenton.com /hickory. Timeline for the Proposed Substation Relocation Following approval by the City Council of the proposed site, DME will undertake procurement of land for the proposed site. The time required for purchase of the land is unknown at this time. Design of the station will begin as soon as practical after it appears that land issues will be settled. DME would hope to have the new station in service during the spring of 2017. Procurement of Land and Easements Land and easement procurement processes are governed by state laws and local ordinances such as Senate Bill 18. Once the City Council has approved the transmission line route and substation sites, the procurement process will follow these requirements. The City will pay fair market prices for land and land rights. Fair market value is determined by conducting market studies and appraisals.

I would like ffirs one to bo, the one of record. 9/3012014 9:02 PM Sites near the historic district are opposed in the strongest terrns. In terms of cost, the cheapest sites also take 9/30/2014 7:35 PM the most single family homes, which is why they are the cheapest. The city states that it supports its single farnily residences and should for the good of the city. If it supports single faulty living in Denton, then it should not build infrastructure on these lots. It is taking advantage of single family residences. While I prefer that some sites on the other side of Bonnie Brae be considered, of the existing sites, the yellow option is the most acceptable. The Orange option will affect 1.9 acres of Woodland Habitat, and he next door to the Historic District. Please see the comments in question 6 above. In addition, the yellow option is the farthest frorn the neighborhoods, it would be removing blighted areas that are closer to UNT, property values surrounding the substation would riot be negatively affected, the nature of the substation appearance lends itself to the cornmercial characteristics of the yellow area, and the yellow area has the least impact air the single-family neighborhoods. I want a fair price for my proper1hy Whichever site is clboosen, I believe there needs to be roorn for significant setbacks to allow for berms, landscaping and trees. The exisffing rendering is an eyesore that will diminish property values in the area. If property landscaped value would not be affected as much. it wentd be better there, i don't think it Wood look good by the hospital As l'o) Sure everyone else is saying: please Put the substation as far away as possible from the Historic District. Also, I strongly suggest tapping into the Public Art fund to turn the 20-foot wall into a work of art! Think big: be imaginative! Don't just build a wall around it Consider building an entire structure that Would conceal it -- something that would actually look good!

Why not expand the current substation next door to the gas station lot inslead of tearing down homes? That is the best option. Please DO NOT use the orange lot. That is way too large and close to homes and a historic district.
