City of DentonPage 1 of 1Printed on 8/10/2018 powered by Legistar© City of Denton CityHall 215E.McKinneyStreet Denton,Texas www.cityofdenton.com _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Capital Projects CM/DCM/ACM: Todd Hileman DATE: August 14, 2018 SUBJECT Receive a report, hold a discussion and give staff direction regarding the implementation of standard construction specifications and contract documentation for construction of all City of Denton capital projects and public infrastructure. SUMMARY The purpose of this work session is for staff to brief the Council on benefits of establishing standard specifications for construction of public infrastructure. These specifications would replace multiple construction specifications currently used on capital projects while also providing standardized construction bid documents and contracts for construction of public infrastructure. BACKGROUND Construction specifications are the foundation of constructing public infrastructure. These specifications describe in detail the work to be performed, accepted construction methods, how quality of construction is determined, how the work will be measured, and how the work will be paid. The more clearly and plainly these items are described, the better the understanding a contractor bidding a project will have of the expectations and ground rules required by the City during the bidding process. Clearly defined specifications minimize change orders which, by extension, reduces potential risks incurred by the City with respect to increases in scope, budget and schedule. The City of Denton currently utilizes multiple sets of specifications to construct public infrastructure leading to confusion and complication between the City and its general contractors during construction. This typically comes in the form of referencing the North Central Texas Council of Governments’ (NCTCOG) Public Works Specifications with addendums specifically required by the City of Denton that either modify add to, or completely changes certain portions of the NCTCOG specifications. In addition to these specifications, references are also made to other specifications \[i.e. Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT), Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS), etc…\] and special specifications that pertain only to a specific project. The complication of having multiple specification references causes potential misunderstanding between the contractor and the City from the beginning of the project and is one of the most frequent causes of change orders shortly after construction begins. As part of this effort, all construction contracts and bid documents will need to be revised as these documents reference each other throughout. When bidding a project, a complete project manual is assembled for bidders to thoroughly understand the terms and conditions of the contract, the minimum requirements of the contractor to perform the work, and the specifications that must be met for the City to accept the work. To further reduce misunderstanding through the bid process, these documents would be assembled in the Construction Standards Institute’s (CSI) general format. The CSI format is well known in the construction industry and relies on putting all specifications and documents required to contract a construction project into uniform divisions and chapters that are consistent regardless of the project. Establishing City of Denton standard specifications follows the path already established in improving the tools, communication and expectations of the City with regard to construction of public infrastructure. In the summer and fall of 2017, the City Council approved a complete update of all the City of Denton’s design criteria manuals and construction details. The final piece in this effort is the complete overhaul of the City’s construction specifications and contract documents. These documents will be utilized by every public works project the City is engaged in executing, and will be utilized by the private development community when constructing infrastructure to be accepted and maintained by the City when their project is complete. As with the City’s design criteria manuals, the construction specifications will be updated on an annual basis. STRATEGIC PLAN RELATIONSHIP The City of Denton’s Strategic Plan is an action-oriented road map that will help the City achieve its vision. The foundation for the plan is the five long-term Key Focus Areas (KFA): Organizational Excellence; Public Infrastructure; Economic Development; Safe, Livable, and Family-Friendly Community; and Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship.

Please provide information on Health Insurance pharmacy purchases and analysis of pharmacies considered for contract. The retail pharmacies available to our employee, retirees, and dependents are part of the pharmacy network developed and managed by United Healthcare (UHC), through their sister company, OptumRx. The City does not have individual contracts with pharmacies but relies on the purchasing power and expertise of OptumRx to establish the pharmacy network. The management of the pharmacy network is part of the services that are included in our Third-Party Administrator contract with UHC. The current network has over 65,000+ retail pharmacies across the country. One of the main drivers of the increasing cost of health care is the continued increase in the cost of prescription medications and the growing number of high prescription medication has increased by 23%. As a potential cost saving measure related OUR CORE VALUES Integrity Fiscal Responsibility Transparency Outstanding Customer Service Finance Department 215 E. McKinney St., Denton, TX 76201 (940) 349-8531 to our pharmacy network, UHC provided an option of choosing either Walgreens or CVS as filled at Walgreens and CVS. By choosing one pharmacy chain over the other, the City would experience a deeper discount on the cost of the medications sold and a lower UHC, less patients would be impacted by eliminating Walgreens versus eliminating CVS, so that was the recommendation from the Employee Insurance Committee (EIC). The total estimated annual savings from this change is projected to be $225,000. This change does not mean that patients can only fill prescriptions at CVS pharmacies. Other chain pharmacies such as Target, Wal-Mart, and Kroger, as well as many local The change is that patients will not be able to get prescriptions filled at Walgreens under The Council also had a question about a recent pharmacy acquisition by Amazon. In late June, Amazon announced that it was acquiring online pharmacy, PillPack, in a deal that could disrupt the U.S. drugstore business. PillPack packages, organizes, and delivers drugs to consumers in packages with the specific number of medications they're supposed to take at specific times. The companies expect the deal to close during the second half of the year. Once the deal is finalized and the new company is offering prescription drugs in the marketplace, UHC and OptumRx will be evaluating its potential impact on the market and their ability to interface with the new company. 18.

Below is a summary of the Community Development performance measures for the 2017/18 program year. BACKGROUND: The City of Denton currently receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Grant (HOME) funds on an annual basis. In order to receive these grants, the City of Denton is required to develop a five-year Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development and submit an annual Action Plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Consolidated Plan is developed using a HUD prescribed process that includes input from citizens, local non-profits organizations and an analysis of census and market data as to the needs in Denton. The information is then utilized to develop the five-year plan with strategies describing proposed housing, social services and public works projects benefiting low and moderate-income households and neighborhoods. Below are the objectives and outcomes identified in the City of Denton's 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development: 1. Decent Housing Encourage homeownership by providing down payment and closing assistance to low and moderate income households. Maintain existing affordable housing units for low and moderate income households including reconstruction, substantial rehabilitation and minor repairs for single-family housing units. Encourage and maintain affordable rental units including rehabilitation of substandard units and rehabilitation of multi-family units. 2. Suitable Living Environment Provision of public facility and infrastructure improvements to benefit low and moderate income people. Provision of public services such as health and mental care, affordable day care, after school programs, senior services, transitional housing, programs for victims of domestic violence, disabled services, and advocacy services to benefit low and moderate income people. Date: July 20, 2018 Report No. 2018-089 Provision of homeless assistance activities for homeless persons especially extremely low income or those with no income, persons with physical and mental disabilities including temporary shelter, food and clothing to chronically homeless and those that have recently become homeless. The annual Action Plan specifically states how CDBG and HOME grant funds will be spent. To help determine the funding allocations for the various projects and programs, the Community Development Advisory Committee (CDAC) and the Human Services Advisory Committee (HSAC) review applications from community organizations and City staff. Each committee develops recommendations as to what activities should be funded. These recommendations are then presented to City Council. Annual action plans are developed based on the funding applications submitted and on the strategies outlined in the Consolidated Plan. DISCUSSION: The annual performance measures are determined based on the proposed activities funded in the annual action plans and tie back to the consolidated plan strategies. The proposed outcomes for each public service agency are based on prior year accomplishments and any changes to the program being funded, including the amount of funds that has been recommended for the coming program year. The proposed outcomes for housing programs are based on the amount of funding allocated to the program and the average cost of each type of housing project such as minor repair, substantial rehabilitation, reconstruction, homebuyer assistance and rental rehabilitation. Public facility and infrastructure improvement outcomes are based on the number of people in the service area that will benefit from the project using census information as prescribed by HUD. At the budget presentations for Community Development on July 17, 2018, Council also requested the expenditures associated with the 29 housing units reported as completed year-to- date. A total of $607,439 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Grant (HOME) was expended during the 2017/18 program year to complete a total of 29 housing units. These included units assisted through the Minor Repair Program, Home Improvement Program, Homebuyer Assistance Program, and the Denton Rental Rehabilitation Program. CONCLUSION: rd Attached is the preliminary 3 Quarter Financial and Performance Report for period ending 6/30/2018. The report provides detailed information on all current activities for Community Development including expenditures to date, actual accomplishments from the prior year, proposed and actual accomplishments for 2017/18 FY based on the 2015-19 Consolidated Plan strategies and the 2017/18 performance measures. Staff reviews financial and performance reports on a regular basis to monitor agency and project performance.

BACKGROUND: th During the July 17 Council meeting there were questions asked about gas wells producing wells, their location, mineral interest rates, and revenue. DISCUSSION: Denton has six gas well pad sites consisting of 14 well heads that provide revenue to city parks. All gas well pad sites are located off of park land and use horizontal drilling to access minerals below the parks. The appropriable fund balance as of September 30, 2017 is $104,371. Attached is a financial statement as of 9-30-17 for the Parks Gas Well Fund and includes the FY 2018-19 Proposed Budget. The royalty percentage for the wells ranges from 18.75% to 25% however the city does not receive that amount in payments. Each well head has a pooling agreement in which the rights of many different mineral owners are combined into pools large enough to extract minerals. The City is paid royalties based on the net revenue interest (NRI) which is calculated by dividing the number of acres the City has by the total number of acres in the pool then multiplying by the royalty percentage. The table below outlines associated park, royalty percent, and NRI.

BACKGROUND In 2014, $361,338 from the Park Development Fund was allocated for a new dog park at North Lakes Park. An additional $50,200 has been allocated in 2017 totaling $411,538. This funding provided for what was hoped to include individual play areas for different sized canines, parking and other related infrastructure. This current allocation is not enough to complete the project. Additional funding has been identified from other funding sources to help complete this project based on a budget of $600,000. In May 2018, Parks and Recreation staff began working to draft a design concept. An initial kick-off meeting was conducted with department maintenance and programming staff as well as the manager of the Linda McNatt Animal Care and Adoption Center to review a concept and identify opportunities and challenges. Individual meetings with the Leisure Service and Park Maintenance staff were held on July 9 and 12 respectively to gather information regarding maintenance requirements and programming opportunities. On August 6, the Parks, Recreation & Beautification Board received a presentation regarding the design concept. The overall feedback from the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Board was positive. Following the City Council presentation, a community meeting will be held on August 16, 7pm at North Lakes Recreation Center. An updated concept design will be created incorporating feedback from meetings and follow-up presentations will be made to the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Board and City Council for consideration. Additionally, the inclusion of art into park facilities is important to add history and culture into public spaces to enhance education as well as improve beautification of the community. As each park is designed, space for art is being identified. Parks and Recreation will work with Economic Development and the Public Art Committee to evaluate opportunities. Summary of feedback from the community to date and in the future: Parks & Recreation and McNatt Animal Care & Adoption Center staff kick-off meeting June 22 Parks Maintenance staff - July 9 Leisure Services staff - July 12 Denton Parks Foundation August 2 Park, Recreation and Beautification Board - August 6 City Council August 14 Public Meeting - August 16 Public Art Committee September 6 Park, Recreation & Beautification Board Follow-up - September / October City Council Follow-up September / October It is the goal of the department to gather as much feedback as possible to make sure that city officials, staff, pet owners, local businesses, as well the community at large, are involved in the design process. Once construction drawings are completed, an outside firm will be hired to provide construction cost estimates prior to moving forward with a formal bid process. PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS) Parks, Recreation and Beautification Board August 6 RECOMMENDATION Review and provide feedback for future development. FISCAL INFORMATION Parks and Recreation has identified funding for this project from sources to such as, but not limited to, General Fund and the 915-916 Funds. Additional funding may need to be identified if the project amount exceeds the budgeted amount of $600,000. STRATEGIC PLAN RELATIONSHIP -oriented road map that will help the City achieve its vision.

City of DentonPage 1 of 1Printed on 8/10/2018 powered by Legistar© City of Denton City Hall 215 E. McKinney Street Denton, Texas www.cityofdenton.com _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Capital Projects CM/ DCM/ ACM: Mario Canizares DATE: August 14, 2018 SUBJECT Receive a report and hold discussion regarding Quiet Zones along at-grade railroad crossings within the City of Denton. BACKGROUND Three major railroads traverse through the City of Denton with 34 at-grade railroad crossings. The three railroads are Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) which has 16 at-grade crossings, Kansas City Southern (KCS) which has 9 at-grade crossings and Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) which has 9 at-grade crossings. All DCTA at-grade crossings are currently Quiet Zones (QZ). The UPRR crossings are categorized into the northern segment which include 8 at-grade crossings, Downtown Segment with 4 crossings and Southern Segment with 4 crossings. The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) requires trains to blow horns at at-grade crossings for 15-20 seconds from crossing and through the crossing. The horn sound is 96-110 decibels approximately 100 feet from the crossing. Typically, QZ are implemented to reduce the noise near a residential neighborhood, school, hospital or other sound-sensitive area. QZ is implemented at one or group of crossings that use supplemental safety measures to eliminate use of train horns. The UPRR crossings in the downtown segment include; Prairie, Sycamore, Hickory and McKinney crossings. The funding of just under one million dollars ($350,000 bond funding and $600,000 Hickory Street enhancement project) was approved for implementing QZ along the downtown segment of the UPRR. Staff has been working on the Downtown QZ project for the last six months and will be starting the QZ project on the northern segment by late summer this year. Steps in establishing a Quiet Zone Conduct evaluation to determine possible treatments and approximate cost. Contact railroad to determine if warning devices comply with the rule and collect train operational data for use in calculating risk. Conduct diagnostic team review to finalize recommendations. Request plans, estimates, and agreements from railroad for any work to be done by the railroad. o UPRR prepares plans, design and estimated (approximately 60 to 90 days) o UPRR construction (order and obtain material, schedule construction and complete construction approximately 12 months) File notice of intent to create a quiet zone (approximately 60 days). This can move concurrently with the previous step. Complete quiet zone improvements. File notice of establishment to create a quiet zone (approximately 30 day). In order to help the City move through this process and complete the implementation of QZ, staff has retained the services of CTC, Inc. Staff has worked with CTC, Inc. in the past six months to complete the first three steps and is currently working with UPRR on the fourth step. A diagnostic review was conducted by a team of professionals that comprised of City staff, CTC staff, Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) staff and UPRR staff in January. The team reviewed existing conditions and developed recommendations for improving the crossings at the four downtown locations to qualify for QZ. Subsequently, City staff worked with UPRR staff to prepare and execute an agreement for developing the engineering plans for the proposed improvements. Currently, UPRR staff is working on developing the engineering plans and cost estimates for the proposed improvements which will require approximately 60 to 90 days and is planned to be completed by September 2018. After the completion of the design UPRR will provide a cost estimate to the City. If this cost is acceptable to the City, an agreement between UPRR and City will be executed to pay UPRR to implement the improvements and establish a QZ in the Downton area. Once such agreement is signed and the City authorizes UPRR to move forward the construction phase will require approximately 260 days. Based on the overall schedule of the project we are on track to complete the QZ by July 2019.

BACKGROUND On January 26, 2016, City Council directed staff to update the Fry Street Small Area Plan. Upon further evaluation, it was determined that the area affected by development pressures was broader, which resulted in an expansion ofthe study area from approximately 97 acres to approximately 1,200 acres. Oak Gateway Area Plan Boundary Map Exhibit 2 has been included for reference. The area is generally bounded on the north by Panhandle Street, on the east by Fort Worth Drive/Carroll Boulevard, and on the west and south by Bonnie Brae Street and Interstate 35 East (I-35E). The study area is primarily comprised of single-family andmulti-family residential uses, with retail and commercial development along major roadways. The Oak Hickory Historic District, West Oak Historic District and the University of North Texas (UNT) campus are situated in the study area. For the purposes of the Area Plan, the study will not include the land area or facilities that are within the UNT campus boundaries, but will influence the recommendations and implementation strategies developed. On May 2, 2017, the City Council directedstaff to solicit and recommend a professional services agreement to the City Council for consultant services to develop a small area plan. On August 1, 2017, the City Council approved an ordinance authorizing a Professional Services Agreement for professional planning serviceswith Fregonese Associates related to the development of the Area Plan and implementation strategy. On September 13, 2017 the Area Plan work officially beganwith a kickoff meeting with the project management team, followed with a meeting with the Technical Advisory Committee, and ended with a tour of the study area. Following the kickoff meeting several stakeholder interviews were held with members of City Council, Planning and Zoning Commission, Historic Landmark Commission, residents, property owners, business owners, City Management, City Departments, DCTA representatives, DISD representatives, business owners, students, bicyclists, development community and other stakeholders. Following a work session and determination that it would be advisable tocreate a Steering Committee composed of appointed individuals, on November 7, 2017 the City Council approved a resolution authorizing the creation of the Small Area Plan Steering Committee and approved the following appointments to the Small Area Plan Steering Committee. 1.Amber Briggle–Business Owner14.Lee Ramsey–Builder 2.Brandon Martino-Property 15.Margie Ellis–Other Owner/Developer16.Michelle Lynn-Resident 3.Brent Erskin –Business Owner17.Pati Haworth –Other 4.Casey Cavalier –Resident18.Patrice Lyke –Resident/Neighborhood 5.Christopher Walker–BicyclistGroup Leader 6.Daniel Abasolo –Other19.Paul Meltzer–Resident 7.Dave Reynolds–UNT20.Peggy Capps –Resident 8.Erin Piper –Resident21.Randy Hunt-Resident/Neighborhood Group 9.Jason Cole –OtherLeader 10.James Davis–UNT22.Sonia Vazquez –Bicyclist 11.Jim Cline -DCTA23.Taylor Willis –Student Representation 12.Jim Owen –Other24.Willie Hudspeth -Business Owner 13.Kim McKibben–Business Owner Since the Committee was created,several meetingsand a Community Workshopwere held. In the months that followed there were meeting procedures that needed to be worked out. Those procedures have been addressed and themeetings are now being facilitated by the citizens. There is a renewed focus to get the Oak Gateway Area Plan completed, but new members are needed to replace those whoare no longer able to serve on the Committee. On June 12, 2018 the City Council received an update on the Area Plan. At that meeting it was explained that attendance at the Steering Committee meetings have slowly decreased and only a few members attend regularly. Council directed staff to contact the Steering Committee members that have not attended regularlyand ask for their availability to serve. If certain members are not able to serve, Councildirected staff to bring forward an item for Council to nominate and approve replacements for those members. Staff contacted ten Committee members and eightresponded that they are no longer able to serve. Those Committee members are listed below along with the Council members that appointed them.

EXCUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Denton is one of 506 cities nation-wide that are rated by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a civil rights organization founded in 1980 representing the LGBTQ community, with over three million members and supports nation-wide. The HRC has developed a Municipal Equality Index (MEI) scorecard to annually examine and rate how inclusive municipal laws, policies, and services are to the LGBTQ people who live and work in the community. Cities are rated based on 5 sections: (1) non-discrimination laws, (2) the municipality as an employer, (3) municipal services, (4) law enforcement, and (5) public position on equality. In2017, HRC selected 506 municipalities nation-wide to be rated in the MEI based upon the following: all 50 state capitals, the 200 largest cities in the U.S., the five largest cities in each state, cities that are home to the two largest universities in each state, 75 cities that have high proportions of same sex couples, and 98 cities selected by the HRC members and supporters. In 2018, it is estimated that the City of Denton will score a total of 52 out of 100 possible points in the index; HRC is expected to release the 2018 MEI scores at the end of this month. This is higher than previous 2017 score of 44 points. Notably, the City is expected to earn the additional points this year for designating an LGBTQ Liaison in the Police Department. The chart below displays the point totals for 2017 and 2018 with standard points listed and bonus points shown in parenthesis.

Only seven of the participating cities in Texas scored higher than Denton, with the highest achieving 100+ points (Austin, Dallas, and Fort Worth), and the lowest earning six points (Irving and Laredo). The national HRC MEI average in 2017 for the 506 cities rated was 57. The scorecard is broken down into five categories and descriptions of those categories can be found in Attachment 2. For 2018, the HRC adapted the index to include new categories and judging criteria. Their intent for the revisions wa-ranging to more accurately reflect the scope of nondiscrimination laws and the innovative w In particular, in 2018, there will be deductions for nondiscrimination ordinances that allow discrimination through religious exemptions that single out sexual orientation and/or gender identity. The below narrative describes how the City of Denton scored in each category, the MEI criteria requirements, and some factual information pertaining to federal and state laws. Section I: Non-Discrimination Laws This category evaluates whether discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity is prohibited by the city, county, or state in areas of employment, housing, and public accommodations. 1.1. 1.3 Non Discrimination Laws Some other large cities that have earned full points for this section have adopted comprehensive non-discrimination laws prohibiting discrimination in the areas of private employment, housing, and public accommodations. In each category (private employment, housing, and public accommodations), cities receive 5 points for explicitly prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and 5 points for expressly prohibiting discrimination on the basis of gender identity. A 3-point deduction is applied for protections that contain carve-outs prohibiting individuals from using facilities consistent with their gender identity. For the 2018 MEI, up to six points will be deducted for religious exemptions that single out sexual orientation and/or gender identity. o 1.1. Private Employment Texas law prohibits discrimination in employment based on a However, it does orientation or gender identity or expression. There were some Texas legislative bills which were introduced during the last legislative session (HB 1534, SB 165, and HB 225); however, they died. The U.S. Supreme Court has not taken any significant action on this subject at this time. o 1.2. Housing The Texas Fair Housing Act and the U.S. Fair Housing Act prohibit discriminatory housing practices in the sale, rental and financing of dwellings based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, physical or mental disability, or familial status (presence of a child under age 18 living with parents or legal custodians, person securing Pg. 2 custody of children under 18, or a pregnant woman). However, this Act does not expressly include a prohibition against discriminatio sexual orientation or gender identity or expression. There was a Texas legislative bill (HB 192) introduced during last legislative session, which included a prohibition against discrimination housing practices ba identity or expression; however, it died. The U.S. Supreme Court has not taken any significant action on this subject at this time. The City of Denton has a Fair Housing Ordinance (Chapter 15 Housing) that protects handicap, familial status, religio o 1.3. Public Accommodations - Texas currently has no statewide law prohibiting discrimination against the protected classes of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity/ expression, age, or physical handicap. The U.S. Supreme Court has not taken any significant action on this subject at this time. Federal law, specifically the Civil Rights Act of 1964, states that all persons shall be entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, and privileges, advantages, and accommodations of any place of public accommodation, as defined in this section, without discrimination or segregation on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin. However, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 has not been amended to include sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression. In general, public accommodations include businesses (but not all) or buildings that are open to (or offer services to) the general public. "Public accommodation" can be divided into two types of businesses / facilities: (1) government-owned/operated facilities, services, and buildings (e.g. courthouse, jail, parks) and (2) privately-owned/operated businesses, services, and buildings (e.g. movies, concert halls, sports arenas, hotels, restaurants). **Note: If the establishment provides service to patrons and has an impact on commerce, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 may be applicable to the establishment. Further, under other areas of the law (e.g. Title III of the Federal ADA), a number of other places may be 28 CFR § 36.104. The City of Denton does not have local non-discrimination laws for the areas of private employment or public accommodations. Further research and analysis would be required to understand federal and state legislation, court rulings, administration and enforcement of such laws, staffing requirements to handle administration and enforcement, potential business or economic impacts, and community input. Bonus: Single-Occupancy All-Gender Restrooms Starting in 2018, cities that require all single- user sex-segregated facilities within the city, like bathrooms and changing rooms, to be all-gender will receive two bonus points. Cities that designate all single-occupancy facilities within its own municipal buildings as all-gender will receive only one bonus point. The City of Denton has a total of 64 single-occupancy restrooms in City buildings: 44 restrooms are located in employee- only areas and 20 restrooms are located in public areas. Bonus: Protects Youth from Conversion Therapy Cities that enact laws to protect youth from sexual orientation or gender identity can gain two bonus points. This is a new category for 2018. Section II: Municipality as an Employer Pg. 3 This category evaluates how municipalities commit themselves to treating LGBTQ employees equally by offering equivalent benefits and protections to LGBTQ employees, and by awarding contracts to fair- minded businesses. 2.1. City Employment - The City of Denton prohibits discrimination in city employment specifically on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, earning the full 14 points. 2.2. Healthcare Benefits - The City of Dentonfor transgender health care needs, including mental health care and hormone therapy. However, the plan excludes those areas related to surgical treatments, which are required to be covered to get any points for the Trans-Inclusive Healthcare Benefits criteria. although the figure is unknown, it is expected that the impact would be minimal. 2.3. City Contractors - The Citycontract template and contract terms and conditions specifically prohibit discrimination based upon sexual orientation, earning the City one point. To earn full points, the City would need to adopt through policy or ordinance that all businesses that contract with the City will have an employee non-discrimination policy that expressly covers sexual orientation or gender identity. For further background, federal law does not include a prohibition against discrimination based on During the last legislative session, HB582 was introduced related to a prohibition against certain forms of employment discrimination by state contractors; however, the bill died. 2.4. Inclusive Workplace To earn points for this category, the City would need to have LGBTQ-specific programming to attract LGBTQ applicants and promote diversity in the workplace, such as LGBTQ employee pride alliance or resource group, LGBTQ-inclusive diversity training for all city staff, or a recruitment program that actively advertises available positions to the LGBTQ community. Bonus: Domestic Partner Benefits This criteria extends one bonus point for offering equal benefits to domestic partners of employees and their legal dependents. For background information, the State of Texas does not mandate Domestic Partner benefits. On April 29, 2013, Attorney General Greg Abbott provided an opinion stating that Tex. Const. Art. I, §32(b) prohibited a political subdivision from providing domestic partnership benefits to its employees. Op. Tex. Att'y Gen. No. GA-1003 (2013). Currently, caselaw is silent on this issue. Texas law does not recognize the legal status of domestic partnerships in Texas. The following local governmental entities offer Domestic Partner benefits: Dallas County and the cities of Austin, Dallas, El Paso, Fort Worth, and San Antonio, as well as Pflugerville School District, all offer domestic partnerships. The City olicy on insurance benefits for employees defines coverage based of Denton employees can enroll their same-sex spouses, and dependent children of their spouses, for health, dental, vision, and supplemental life insurance benefits. Supporting documentation typically must be provided (copy of formal marriage license or certificate of Pg. 4 informal marriage in this instance) to Risk Management before the benefit change can be approved. Section III: Municipal Services This section assesses the efforts of the city to ensure LGBTQ constituents are included in city services and programs. 3.1. & 3.2. Human Rights Commission/Enforcement Mechanism - The City of Denton earned points in this category for having a Human Rights Commission, defined by HRC as the city having a community-facing body tasked with eliminating discrimination and educating the public on issues of diversity and inclusion. In the city, the Denton Together Coalition serves this purpose. However, the Denton Together Coalition is not a City board or commission provided with the authority to enforce citywide non-discrimination protections. 3.3. LGBTQ Liaison to City Executive - The City also earned points for having Sarah Kuechler, Director of Public Affairs, serve as the liaison and contact for the LGBTQ community. This is -8356 or sarah.kuechler@cityofdenton.com. Bonus: Anti-Bullying Prevention Policy - A new bonus category was added in the 2018 scorecard for implementing policies that prohibit bullying on the express basis of sexual orientation and gender identity in all youth-facing city facilities and services. The Denton Public Library currently has a Rules of Conduct policy for their facilities, although it does not expressly prohibit on sexual orientation and gender identity. If directed, staff could research amending this policy, as well as work with Parks and Recreation Department regarding their policies. Bonus: City Provides Services - Municipalities can earn bonus points for providing services to specific population segments of the LGBTQ community. While the City provides services and supports many community organizations serving the LGBTQ community, bonus points are not awarded unless the support or funding is specifically targeted for the LGBTQ community, rather than community at-large. Additionally, bonus points are not awarded for federal, state, or other pass-through grants that the City may administer. Section IV: Law Enforcement This section evaluates fair enforcement of the law including responsible reporting of hate crimes and engaging with the LGBTQ community in a thoughtful and respectful way. Pg. 5 In 2018, staff expects that the City of Denton will earn maximum points for this category. The Denton Police Department has consistently earned maximum points for reporting of hate crime statistics to the FBI, and this year, the Police Department designated Lieutenant Chris Summit as a liaison to the LGBTQ of (940) 349-7944 or chris.summitt@cityofdenton.com. Section V: Leadership on LGBTQ Equality This category measures the c advocate for full equality. Staff expects that Denton will earn five (5) points for annually recognizing and supporting LGBTQ month with proclamations and for elected officials supporting the LGBTQ community during city council meetings and at other public events. Additional suggestions to earn points in this category include joining a pro-equality associations and passing pro-equality legislation. OPTIONS Staff will review the HRC MEI scorecard and criteria with City Council and seek direction for any potential next steps, actions, or further research and analysis on items. STRATEGIC PLAN RELATIONSHIP -oriented road map that will help the City achieve its vision. The foundation for the plan is the five long-term Key Focus Areas (KFA): Organizational Excellence; Public Infrastructure; Economic Development; Safe, Livable, and Family-Friendly Community; and Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship.

McKinney Street Denton, Texas www.cityofdenton.com _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Capital Projects CM/ DCM/ ACM: Mario Canizares DATE: August 14, 2018 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an Ordinance of the City Council of Denton, Texas authorizing the City Manager to execute and deliver an Agreement for Furnishing and Installing of Traffic Signal Equipment by a Municipality regarding the City’s request for reimbursement of the cost of installing traffic signals and other items directly related to the operation of three intersections on FM 2181 within the City that are specified in said agreement; providing the City Manager with authority to carry out the rights and duties of the City regarding said agreement; providing the City Manager with authority to expend funds therefor; providing an effective date. BACKGROUND The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has completed the design for the widening and improvement of FM 2181 from Wind River Lane to FM 2499 (City limits) and this project is currently under construction. Part of the project involves the installation of traffic signals at the intersections of FM 2181 with various cross streets including Wind River Lane, Sundown Boulevard, Ryan Road, Robinson Road, Wheeler Ridge Road, Hickory Creek Road, Montecito Drive, Cedar Creek Lane and Old Alton Road. The cost of the design and construction of these signals is included in the TxDOT project. However, the City of Denton uses a specific manufacturer’s equipment for traffic signal control cabinets, signal controllers, conflict monitors, advanced radar detection and video cameras at traffic signals within the city limits for uniformity of software, parts and maintenance. For this reason, the City will supply the desired equipment for installation by the State (listed in Exhibit A of the agreement) at these intersections. The attached agreement provides for the City to be reimbursed for these materials in the total projected amount of $767,430.00. After approval at City Council and execution, the agreement will be routed to TxDOT for further execution. OPTIONS 1.Approve the Agreement for Furnishing and Installing of Traffic Signal Equipment by a Municipality 2.Reject the Agreement for Furnishing and Installing of Traffic Signal Equipment by a Municipality RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the Agreement for Furnishing and Installing of Traffic Signal Equipment by a Municipality between the City of Denton and the Texas Department of Transportation in the amount of $767,430.00 for the provision of the desired traffic signal equipment at the intersections of FM 2181 with various cross streets including Wind River Lane, Sundown Boulevard, Ryan Road, Robinson Road, Wheeler Ridge Road, Hickory Creek Road, Montecito Drive, Cedar Creek Lane and Old Alton Road.

The Traffic Safety Commission recommends Option 1 (5-0). BACKGROUND Recently, City staff received a request from the Denton Independent School District (DISD) and the principal of Woodrow Wilson Elementary school to restrict parking during school hours along Hanover Drive between Windsor Drive and Croydon Street. The primary issue was the narrow street width resulting from the use of on-street parking (school side) as waiting area during school pick-up times. The segment of Hanover Drive between Windsor Drive and Croydon Street is approximately 32 feet in width and experiences on-street parking on the school side especially during student drop- off in the morning and pick-up times in the afternoon. The section of Hanover Drive between Croydon Street and end of the school campus is currently designated as a loading zone that does not allow on-street parking during the school hours. Woodrow Wilson Elementary School is an older school, which was designed as a neighborhood school where majority of the students were expected to walk to school. As such, the school does not have a designated pick-up/drop-off area and Hanover Drive south of Windsor Drive is used for these purposes. A large portion of students are now picked-up by parents at the southern end of the school campus along Hanover Drive. Vehicles typically stack along the curb in a line awaiting their turn to pick up the students. During this time, if a vehicle is parked along the west/south side (school side) of Hanover Drive between Windsor Drive and Croydon Street, vehicles picking-up students have to wait in the travel lane thus blocking the normal traffic flow and creating unsafe conditions. The current street width does not provide sufficient capacity to permit on-street parking and allow the use of this segment of Hanover Drive for pick-up and drop-off activities. As such DISD and the elementary school has requested the City to restrict parking along this segment of Hanover Drive during school hours. Staff notified the property owners and residents on this segment of Hanover Drive about the proposed discussion item regarding on-street parking to ensure that residents and property owners have an opportunity to voice any concerns they may have. Letters were mailed on May stth 1 and door hangers were placed on May 4 at residential addresses on Hanover Drive. A review of existing conditions and the available street width for two-way traffic along Hanover Drive and the traffic flow during school hours, staff recommends restricting parking on the south/west side of the street during school hours. OPTIONS 1. Approve restricting on-street parking on the southwest side of Hanover Drive between Windsor Drive to Croydon Street during the school hours. 2. Decline recommendation of parking restriction. 3. Provide staff with additional direction. RECOMMENDATION The Traffic Safety Commission considered this item at the May meeting and recommends Option 1 (5-0) for restricting parking on the southwest side of Hanover Drive (adjacent to the school) from Windsor Drive to Croydon Street during the school hours. ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT It is anticipated the work could be scheduled for completion within two weeks of Council approval. PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (Council, Boards, Commissions) Traffic Safety Commission considered this proposal at the May 7, 2018 meeting and recommended Council consideration 5-0.

McKinney Street Denton, Texas www.cityofdenton.com _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Materials Management CM: Todd Hileman DATE: August 14, 2018 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation, authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract through National Joint Powers Alliance Cooperative Purchasing Network Contract # 032515 for the purchase of a Caterpillar Inc. Model 836K refuse compactor for the City of Denton Solid Waste Department; authorizing the expenditure of funds therefor; and declaring an effective date (File 6869 awarded to B.D. Holt CO. dba Holt Texas, Ltd., in the not-to-exceed amount of $1,031,787.07). BACKGROUND Refuse compactors serve a critical purpose in solid waste operations. Compactors are used to spread the waste received at the landfill and compact it into dense layers in order to maximize the use of airspace and stabilize the landfill working face. Compaction is achieved through the weight of the machinery and the specialize pair of Caterpillar Model 826K refuse compactors to compact and stabilize the waste received at the d 2016. Since June 29, 2018, both units have While both units are down, the department has utilized a bulldozer to spread and compact waste. If the dozer becomes inoperable for a prolonged period of time, less capable machines will be utilized, and further machine breakdowns could require the department to divert waste to a different landfill facility. Staff estimates that repairs to the existing compactors will take several more weeks. As a result, staff assessed the feasibility and financial impact of replacing one of the disabled compactors. As part of a recent operational review, Blue Ridge Services, Inc. recommended that Solid Waste replace the existing Model 826K compactors with a larger Model 836K. This recommendation was made because the 836K compactor can improve waste compaction and save airspace. Additionally, the firm believed the volume of waste received by the landfill has led to the smaller 826K models being overworked. Staff performed an analysis on the financial impacts of replacing an existing compactor with an 836K model. The salvage value for an 826K model will cover the remaining debt service on the machine, and staff estimates the improved waste compaction will save approximately $2.46 million in landfill airspace per year. The 2015 unit is scheduled for replacement in early FY 2019-20; therefore, staff recommends replacing this unit with a Model 836K refuse compactor. Staff searched purchasing cooperatives for an available compactor and located a 2018 Caterpillar Inc. Model 836K Compactor available through B.D. Holt CO. dba Holt Texas, Ltd. Irving for $1,031,787.07. Upon purchase, the unit will be delivered to the landfill within three (3) weeks. Staff located lower cost units in a BOMAG BC1172 for $875,680 and an Al-Jon Series 600 for $940,319. However, neither unit was in inventory, and the build time for both units exceeded 90 days. The loss in airspace during the additional wait time for either machine is equivalent to approximately $545,900. In addition, staff in the Fleet Service Department expressed concern with the service capabilities associated with the lower cost machines. As a result, staff recommends purchasing the Caterpillar Inc. Model 836K. PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS) On April 7, 2015, Council approved the Interlocal agreement with the National Joint Powers Alliance (Ordinance 2015-076). This item is scheduled for consideration by Public Utilities Board (PUB) on August 13, 2018. RECOMMENDATION Award the purchase of a Caterpillar Inc. Model 836K Refuse Compactor to B.D. Holt CO. dba Holt Texas, Ltd. Irving in the amount of $1,031,787.07. PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS B.D. Holt Co. dba Holt Texas, LTD. San Antonio, TX ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT Delivery of items will occur within 30 days after receipt of order. FISCAL INFORMATION These items will be funded from existing unallocated debt from the Solid Waste capital improvement account 660643595. Requisition # 139270 has been entered into the Purchasing software system in the amount of $1,031,787.07. STRATEGIC PLAN RELATIONSHIP -oriented road map that will help the City achieve its vision.

BACKGROUND The North Texas State Fair Association is a volunteer supported, non-profit community organization that preserves and promotes western heritage and values. The North Texas Fair and Rodeo contributes to the quality of life in the City of Denton, Denton County, and throughout the North Texas area. The North Texas Fair Association holds an annual rodeo and fair for nine days during the month of August. According to the mission of the North Texas State Fair Association they strive to preserve and promote an understanding of the agricultural industry. All revenue generated is reinvested into various programs, scholarships, and facilities. The North Texas Fair Association is requesting the use of 125 traffic cones from the City to support their traffic management program as attendees enter and exit the fairgrounds. In the past, the NTFA staff has coordinated the borrowing of the traffic cones through City staff. However, with the new ethics policies in place, the in-kind request must be approved by City Council. If the request is approved, 125 cones would be designated for the NTFA. NTFA staff would be responsible for the retrieving and returning the cones back to the City of Denton. Any cones not returned or damaged would be the responsibility of the NTFA to reimburse the City at $6.43 per cone. Overall city operations would not be negatively affected by these cones being in used at the fairgrounds.

City of DentonPage 1 of 1Printed on 8/10/2018 powered by Legistar© City of Denton City Hall 215 E. McKinney Street Denton, Texas www.cityofdenton.com _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Capital Projects CM/DCM/ACM:Mario Canizares DATE: August 14, 2018 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, Texas, authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an Advance Funding Agreement (AFA) in the amount of $6,864,979.98, by and between the State of Texas, acting through the Texas Department of Transportation (the “State”) and the City of Denton (the “City”), regarding water and wastewater improvements associated with the US 377 (Ft Worth Drive) roadway widening project. The City will make two incremental payments to the State. The first payment will be upon full execution of the AFA and will be in the amount of $3,864,979.98. The second payment will be in the amount of $3,000,000.00 after receiving additional RTR funds from NCTCOG in the amount of $3,000,000.00. BACKGROUND The US 377 (Ft Worth Drive) road widening project requires the City of Denton to relocate several existing water and wastewater utility lines which are in conflict with the proposed roadway improvements. Through an Advance Funding Agreement, the State provides a way for utility operators to have their relocation work incorporated into the scope of a State project so that the work is performed under the supervision and coordination of the State’s construction contractor. The City has elected to utilize this type of agreement for the US 377 project so as to allow the State to bid the contract during the 2018 Fiscal Year. th Bids for the project were received by TxDOT on July 10 2018. There were nine bidders for the project. The low bidder was SEMA Construction, Inc. with a total bid of $43,621,757.47 for the overall total project including both the TxDOT roadway and City of Denton public utility improvements. The table below shows the overall bid and the public utility bid for each of the nine bidders. The low overall bid and the low public utility bid have been highlighted: BidderNameOverallBidPublicUtilityBid 1SEMAConstruction,Inc.$43,621,757.47$6,129,446.40 2SterlingDelawareHoldingCompany,Inc.$44,281,030.62$4,581,197.80 3BalfourBeattyInfrastructure,Inc.$45,187,736.15$3,957,250.29 4AustinBridge&RoadServices,LP$45,673,886.34$3,549,800.47 5JagoePublicCompany$47,492,272.19$6,300,887.59 6EdBellConstructionCompany$48,739,724.00$6,595,409.95 7OHLUSA,Inc.$48,805,077.63$6,008,809.53 8SundtConstruction,Inc.$49,425,466.58$4,341,706.20 9ZachryConstructionCorporation$52,035,641.05$3,684,999.61 As shown in the table, SEMA’s bid for the City of Denton public utility work is $6,129,446.40. That cost is much higher than the cost originally anticipated by the City of Denton. Prior to the bid opening, the City of Denton estimated the cost of the public utility work to be $3,211,720.00. Fortunately, all project stakeholders including TxDOT, NCTCOG, Denton County and the City of Denton agree the bids for the public utility work came in unreasonably high from the overall low bidder. To resolve the situation and allow the project to move forward on schedule, NCTCOG has agreed to propose Regional Transportation Council (RTC) approval at the October 2018 meeting of $3,000,000 of Regional Toll Revenue (RTR) funds for use in covering the public utility cost overrun. Their proposed solution is outlined in the letter included as Exhibit 2 to this AIS. Regarding the Advance Funding Agreement, the total amount of the payment required to TxDOT for funding of the public utility improvements is equal to SEMA’s public utility bid plus additional costs in the amount of 2% for barricades, 5% for mobilization and 5% for engineering/contingency (12% total). Therefore, the total amount of the Advance Funding Agreement is $6,129,446.40 x 1.12 or $6,864,979.98. NCTCOG is proposing approval of an additional $3,000,000 of RTR funds for the project, so the total City of Denton funding obligation is anticipated to be $3,864,979.98. This is less than what the City would be obligated to pay if the low utility bid highlighted in the table above plus 12% was used for calculation of the AFA amount. The Agreement sets out the terms and conditions for payment by the City to the State for the public utility portion of the work. The City will make two incremental payments to the State. The first payment will be upon full execution of the Agreement and will be in the amount of $3,864,979.98. The second payment will be made by February 16, 2019 in the amount of $3,000,000.00. This will be after the City of Denton receives the additional RTR funds that are anticipated to be approved at the October 2018 RTC meeting. The total payment specified in the Agreement is meant to represent the maximum payment liability for the City regarding this project. However, if the City elects to add work through a change order then the City would be responsible for paying those costs in addition to the amount already furnished to the State through the Agreement. PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS) PUB Consideration of Draft AFA on July 9, 2018 PUB Consideration of Final AFA on August 13, 2018 OPTIONS 1.Approve the Ordinance approving the Advance Funding Agreement to permit the State’s contractor to do the utility improvements associated with the US 377 road widening project. 2.Reject the Ordinance approving the Agreement. Rejection will require the City to bid the utility improvements associated with the US 377 road widening project as a separate project. This will delay the State’s road project by approximately 18 months. 3.Table for future consideration. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the Ordinance approving the Advance Funding Agreement. The Agreement will allow the US 377 road widening project to proceed on schedule. ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT TxDOT is estimating construction to begin in November 2018 and to complete in November 2020.

STRATEGIC PLAN RELATIONSHIP The City of Denton’s Strategic Plan is an action-oriented road map that will help the City achieve its vision. The foundation for the plan is the five long-term Key Focus Areas (KFA): Organizational Excellence; Public Infrastructure; Economic Development; Safe, Livable, and Family-Friendly Community; and Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship. While individual items may support multiple KFAs, this specific City Council agenda item contributes most directly to the following KFA and goal: Related Key Focus Area: Public Infrastructure Related Goal: 1.6 Collaborate with local, regional, state, and federal partners EXHIBITS Exhibit 1: Agenda Information Sheet Exhibit 2: Letter from NCTCOG Exhibit 3: Project Map Exhibit 4: Presentation Exhibit 5: Ordinance and Advance Funding Agreement Respectfully submitted: W. Todd Estes, P.E. City Engineer For information concerning this agreement, contact: Chad Allen, P.E., ext. 7713 August 3, 2018 Mr. Mark Nelson Transportation Director City of Denton 215 East McKinney Street Denton, TX 76021 Dear Mr. Nelson: This letter is in response to a request received on July 12, 2018, from the City of Denton consultant and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), regarding the cost overrun on the US 377 from IH 35E to South of FM 1830 project. Approximately $3 million was requested to assist in funding utility overruns to ensure that the US 377 project can stay on schedule. The North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) recognizes the significance of the US 377 project, as it provides congestion relief to a regionally significant arterial and provides needed sidewalk improvements. NCTCOG also recognizes the time-sensitive nature of this project request in regards to the utility relocation needed to complete the project. Therefore, in partnership with the City and TxDOT, NCTCOG will propose Regional Transportation Council (RTC) approval of $3 million of Regional Toll Revenue (RTR) funds be made available to cover the cost overrun. Per RTR funding policy, there is an 80 percent regional/20 percent local funding share, with the City providing a required 20 percent cash match. Below is a breakdown of the funding exchange: $3,750,000 Cost overrun/requested funding $3,000,000 80% regional funding requested $750,000 20% local cash match In accordance with the City of Denton TxDOT, the City can utilize pre- award authority for time-sensitive utility relocation expenses that are in excess of existing utility funding and necessary to the completion of the project. Mr. Mark Nelson Page Two August 3, 2018 The City will need to submit a Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) modification for additional funding via the November 2018 cycle by the August 3, 2018 deadline. Please contact Christie Gotti at (817) 608-2338 or cgotti@nctcog.org for any questions you may have. Sincerely, Michael Morris, P.E.

City of DentonPage 1 of 1Printed on 8/10/2018 powered by Legistar© City of Denton City Hall 215 E. McKinney Street Denton, Texas www.cityofdenton.com _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Finance DCM: Bryan Langley DATE: August 14, 2018 SUBJECT Hold a public hearing on a proposal to adopt a tax rate of $0.620477 with a maximum allowable rate of $0.637856 per $100 valuation, which will not exceed the lower of the effective or rollback tax rate. BACKGROUND The Texas Constitution and Texas Property Tax Code require taxing units to comply with specific guidelines in adopting tax rates. The guidelines are related to a concept known as truth-in-taxation. This concept is a way to make taxpayers aware of tax rate proposals and allow tax payers in certain circumstances, to roll back or limit a tax increase. The truth-in-taxation guidelines require taxing entities to calculate and publish their effective and rollback tax rates (Exhibit 2 2018 Notice of Proposed Tax Rate).
