II. General Information & Status Update
A. Bike and Pedestrian Coordinator – The Bike/Ped Coordinator position was
transferred to the Capital Projects Department in mid-January this year and the
open position was advertised in February. After conducting initial screening
through background review and phone interviews, seven candidates were
shortlisted, five were interviewed, and the top two candidates were called for
another round of interviews. Staff has extended an offer to the top candidate who
has accepted the position. As the selected candidate is out-of-state, it will take a
few weeks before the individual can join the Capital Projects team. After the
background and HR processes are complete, the candidate’s name will be shared.
The tentative start date for the new Bicycle and Pedestrian coordinator is set for
July 16, 2018. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Engineering
B. Quiet Zones in Downtown – Union Pacific Railroad has 16 at-grade crossings
within the City of Denton. Staff is currently working on establishing Quiet Zones
along four at-grade crossings located in the downtown area. Due to considerable
involvement of the railroad in the implementation process, it typically takes 18 to
24 months to establish a Quiet Zone. In the last five months, staff has completed
the diagnostic review and identified the improvements required at the crossings in
the downtown segment. Currently, the railroad is working on developing plans,
design and estimates for the proposed improvements at the railroad crossings. As
part of the preliminary assessment, some additional improvements were
recommended by Union Pacific and City staff is currently reviewing the need for
implementing these. The design phase for this project is scheduled to be completed
by August 2018. The overall project is on track and scheduled to be completed by
July 2019. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Engineering
C. Fine Arts Theater Project – Economic Development and Development Services
staff met with Alex Payne and Brad Andrus, two of the new owners of the Fine
Arts Theater, on June 4 to discuss the project. The owners will select an architect
this week and plan to begin addressing the initial critical issues related to building
renovation and preservation – including mold removal, asbestos abatement, and
roof repair – within the next two months. Following the completion of the initial
phase, which the group anticipates taking 6 months, full plans for the theater’s
revival will be developed. Payne, Andrus, and the other owners are partnering with
the group behind Dallas’ Texas Theater, including Jason Reimer and Barak
Epstein, along with Denton artist Martin Iles, on the project. Future programming
of films and performances in the theater will be the purview of Reimer and
Epstein’s group. The group estimates that the project will require a $3.5-4 million
investment; they will be seeking additional private investors and applying to the
City of Denton for grants. Staff contact: Caroline Booth, Economic Development
D. Fire Station No. 4 Completion and Dedication Ceremony – The Fire Department
will begin moving in to the newly constructed station the week of June 11, 2018.
A dedication will be held on Friday, June 22, 10 a.m. at Fire Station No. 4, 2116
E. Sherman Dr. Please see attached invitation. Staff contact: Chief Kenneth
Hedges, Fire Department
E. Household Chemical/Hazardous Waste Drop-off Option – Since 2006, the City of
Denton Solid Waste Department has offered curbside collection of household
chemicals and hazardous waste to all residential and multi-family customers. The
service provides our residents with a safe, efficient, and environmentally
sustainable alternative to disposing of hazardous waste such as paint, cleaners,
oils, batteries, pesticides, and pool chemicals. Many of the collected items are still
usable and are made available for reuse to residents at no charge. Citizens can
collect up to four items per day from the Re-Use Store.
Effective June 18, 2018, residential customers will have the ability to drop off their
unwanted chemicals and hazardous waste at the Solid Waste Department’s Home
Chemical Center/Re-Use Store, located at 1527 S. Mayhill Rd. The hours of
operation for the drop-off site and the Re-Use store will be Monday thru Friday
7:00am to 4:00pm. Residents utilizing the service will be required to show a valid
driver’s license and proof of residency (i.e. a recent utilities bill). Residents are
permitted unlimited use of the drop off service; however, chemicals and hazardous
waste from commercial customers and non-Denton residents are not being
accepted at this time.
Residents may continue utilizing curbside chemical/hazardous waste collection by
scheduling a pick-up with Customer Service by calling (940) 349-8700. Staff
contact: Ethan Cox, Solid Waste
F. ReUse Store Paint Mixer/Marketing Information – At the June 5 City Council
meeting, Council Member Briggs asked if the City had a paint mixer at the ReUse
Store. After discussions with staff, there is not enough space in the ReUse Store
facility to accommodate a paint mixer. However, Solid Waste staff and
Communications staff are working on continued promotions of the ReUse Store.
In February, the ReUse Store and Household Chemical Waste operation were
featured in the Citizen Connection (utility bill insert). Both were also highlighted
as added benefits to ratepayers in the June-July Resident Update that is being
delivered this week. In addition, the ReUse Store was the feature on the
DentonRecycles.com for March and April. To continue promoting the store,
Communications staff have added the ReUse Store to the “Quick Links” section
of the City’s homepage to further highlight the program and make it easier for
website visitors to find. Staff will continue to discuss additional ways to highlight
the ReUse Store and encourage residents to use the Household Hazardous Waste
program. Staff Contact: Ethan Cox, Solid Waste/ Jessica Rogers, Public Affairs
G. McKinney Street Sidewalks – The contractor constructing the McKinney Street
sidewalk has begun work. Please see the picture below of the contractor setting
forms for the sidewalk. Staff will continue to provide progress updates to City
Council on this project. The contractor is on target and expects to finish work by
August 1. Staff contact: Todd Estes, Capital Projects
H. Roof Leak at South Branch Library – The South Branch Library roof replacement
project began on May 15. On Monday, June 4, Library staff entered the building
at 11 a.m. to discover leaks. Three ceiling tiles and insulation fell from the ceiling
above the new books shelving. Additional leaks were discovered throughout the
building. Staff reported the situation to the Facilities Department who immediately
began working with the roofing contractors to address leak areas, assess damage,
and dry wet areas inside the building. As rain continued to occur throughout the
week, additional leaks appeared, were reported, and addressed. Plastic sheeting
was placed over library shelving to prevent the loss of materials. Wet insulation
and ceiling tiles were removed after the Monday rain. Additional wet insulation
and wet ceiling tiles are being removed Friday morning after the rain the previous
night. Large fans have been provided to dry wet carpets. 98 books have been
withdrawn from the Library’s collection due to water damage. Six large rolls of
butcher paper have also been identified as damaged and needing replacement. The
South Branch Library has remained open during regular operating hours
throughout the project. Staff contact: Jennifer Bekker, Libraries
I. City Hall Roof – The roofing contractor that has been working at other City
facilities has experienced some delays due to the inclement weather over the last
couple of weeks. As a result, the start of the City Hall Roof Replacement Project
has been postponed to June 18. At that time portions of the west parking lot will
be off limits to store roofing supplies, materials, and equipment. Facilities
Management will place signs at the entrance of the parking lots to direct visitors
and employees to other parking areas. Staff contact: Dean Hartley, Facilities
Management
J. Council Election Timing – Council Member Duff requested information on
possibly holding city council elections in conjunction with the Primary elections.
The Texas Election Code sets the Primary election date as the first Tuesday in
March in each even-numbered year. The Code sets the general election for cities
as either the first Saturday in May or the first Tuesday after the first Monday in
November. Unless there is a change in the State Election Code, holding the council
election with the Primary election is not possible. Staff contact: Jennifer Walters,
City Secretary
K. OCI Maps – Please find attached two maps showing the Overall Condition Index
(OCI) of City streets as presented at the City Council meeting on Tuesday. The
first map shows City streets that have an OCI range from 100-0. The second map
shows the City streets with an OCI only with a range from 45-0. Staff contact:
Daniel Kremer, Capital Projects

M. Inquiry of old KDB Building – At the June 4 Council meeting, Council Member
Briggs inquired what the old Keep Denton Beautiful (KDB) building was being
used for. The North Lakes Recreation Center Annex (former KDB and YMCA)
located on Riney Road is currently used by Parks and Recreation for half-day
preschool. The preschool meets five days a week from 8:30 a.m.- 1 p.m. The
additional meeting room in the Annex is being used for summer camp
programming. In the future, this structure will serve as the new Tennis Center Pro
Shop. Currently, the new tennis center is under design and a presentation to City
Council on the proposed concept will be scheduled later this summer. Staff
contact: Gary Packan, Parks & Recreation
N. Teen Council Budget – In response to follow-up questions regarding the Teen City
Council presentation on June 4, 2018, the program is funded through a
combination of general fund (GF) and recreational fund (RF) dollars. Expenses
include conference registrations, team building events, and supplies / services for
fundraising and teen events. Revenue collected from fundraising goes toward off-
setting the annual expenditures. Expenditures and revenues for the current fiscal
year include:
Expenditure Amount
Youth Advisory Commission Summit Conference (RF) $350.00
North Texas Regional Youth Forum (RF) $250.00
Team Building at Group Dynamix (RF) $660.00
End of Year Event - Brunswick Bowling (RF) $223.88
Sound Wagon – Battle of the Bands(GF) $997.00
Billy Buttons – Photo Booth (RF) $505.00
Total $2,985.88

Battle of the Bands $150.00
Total $1,361.00
Net Expenditure / Revenue $1,624.88
The program is in its second year of revitalization. Updates initiated by the FY 17-
18 Teen Council along with feedback and recommended changes from the
members and new leadership are expected to increase participation and enhance
the experience. A new marketing strategy and timeline has also been developed
for registration. Targeted messages specific to parents and teens will be pushed
through various electronic bulletins and social media outlets. For parents, Denton
Independent School District’s message board, Peachjar, will be used. For teens,
messages on Twitter, Facebook, and Snapchat will be posted. Additionally, rather
than a single registration period in the Spring as teens are closing out the school
year, registration will be re-opened mid-July and run through August to capture
students as they are beginning the school year and planning their extra-curricular
activities.
As the program continues to grow, the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD)
will assess enrollment trends, program activities, and fiscal impact. PARD will
provide a recommendation for on-going funding based on the data that ensures
support and success of the program. Staff contact: Laura Behrens, Parks &
Recreation

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
Update to policies regarding the use of City of Denton facilities and meeting rooms.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Staff reviewed the policies relating to use of City facilities and meeting rooms and determined
that there was a lack of consistency between the current policies and practices. The updated
policy will improve transparency in the availability of meeting rooms for use by other entities
and increase the overall customer service that is provided. It is staff’s recommendation that
Policy 500.01 “Use of City Hall Meeting Spaces” and 500.02 “Use of Conference Rooms” be
repealed and replaced with a consolidated Policy 500.06 “Use of City Facilities and Meeting
Rooms”. The proposed consolidated Policy also incorporates department policies for use of city-
owned facilities and meeting rooms so that there is one comprehensive city-wide policy for
reference.
The original policies were adopted in the early 1980s and the last update was made in 2001 to
Policy 500.01. These policies covered only the use of City Hall meeting rooms and the City’s
internal use of meeting rooms.
DISCUSSION:
Staff held several meetings with various departments to discuss current policies, discuss
modifications, and combine various policies into one policy. A comprehensive policy was
drafted and submitted for review and input by the Policy Review Committee. The Policy Review
Committee is comprised of approximately 25 employees at various levels representing different
departments/divisions. The members are asked to distribute the proposed changes to individuals
in their area and solicit comments, questions, and concerns regarding the proposed changes.
Feedback from the Committee has been incorporated into the policy, although no significant
feedback was received.
The following changes have been made:
The policy scope has been expanded to include all City facilities and meeting rooms
currently available for public use.
With online room scheduling functionality now available through Microsoft Outlook, a
policy governing the scheduling and internal use of meeting rooms is no longer
necessary.
General guidelines that apply to all available facilities are included in Section 1.1 and
specific guidelines are included for individual departments.
The purpose of each facility is included in the policy to describe the role of that facility
and ensure that requests made for the use of the facilities are appropriate for their
purpose.
Date: June 8, 2018 Report No. 2018-068
Priorities were established for guidance on the ranking of reservations. These priorities
are coordinated with the purpose and intended use of each facility and will assist
departments in dealing with reservation conflicts.
A reservation application has been created for use by departments that currently do not
have an application. From a user perspective, this will increase consistency in the
procedures for reservation of a room.
Fees associated with the reservation of a room and under which conditions those fees
would be applied are included in the policy. A separate fee schedule is attached to the
policy to easily modify the fees in the future rather than update the entire policy.
Facilities that require fees are for events that benefit an individual or small group (e.g.,
social events). Events that are for a civic purpose or benefit the larger community (e.g.,
non-profits, other governmental agencies, City meetings) do not have a fee, unless the
City incurs costs outside of normal operations (e.g., overtime for building attendants or
DTV personnel).
CONCLUSION:
Staff plans to bring forward a recommendation and resolution to City Council on July 17, 2018
to adopt the new policy and incorporate Use of City Facilities and Meeting Rooms (Reference
number 500.06) within the City of Denton Policies and Procedures and repealing the City’s Use
of City Hall Meeting Spaces and Use of Conference Rooms policies (Reference number 500.01
and 500.02).

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
Provide an update on the Denton Back to School Fair planned for Saturday, August 11, 2018.
BACKGROUND:
A collaboration of community organizations have joined together to provide a city-wide Denton
Back to School Fair event to provide students and families with the resources and supplies they
need to have a confident and healthy start to the school year. Last year, there were 3 separate back-
to-school events held in the City that provided school supplies and resources. In 2017, there was:
1. The Appleyard Tree Project Back to School fair organized by Interfaith Ministries and held
at Calhoun Middle School.
2. The Good Start Back to School event organized by Health Services of North Texas and
held at Immaculate Conception.
3. The City of Denton Back to School fair organized by the Denton Police Department and
held at the Civic Center.
The above organizations met in March 2018 to discuss consolidation of the events with the goal
to maximize resources available to students and families and reduce the duplication of efforts.
There was consensus to proceed with one event realizing the benefit it could serve to the
community. The United Way of Denton County has taken the lead to coordinate amongst the
participating organizations. The group recently learned of and reached out to additional organizers
that were involved in planning the Civic Center event last year, which was held at the MLK
Recreation Center in years prior, to request their assistance in planning and outreach. The
participation and assistance of all community partners are important to make this event a success.
DISCUSSION:
The group has met over the last few weeks to determine logistics, location, registration, marketing,
donations, supplies, health and social service vendors on-site, volunteers, and so forth. The group
reviewed and discussed a few facility options that could hold over 3,000 students and their families
in one day. The location of Denton Bible Church (2300 E. University Drive) was selected by the
group due to it being able to hold the anticipated large attendance of the event entirely indoors (to
avoid wait lines outside in the August heat), very minimal costs required to use the facility, ability
for the site to handle anticipated traffic volume, and having some public transportation options
available nearby.
The event will help equip families in need for the start of a new school year by providing free
backpacks and school supplies, providing access to resources through a community and health
services fair with various vendors present that provide service to children and families, and offer
haircuts and vision screenings. It is estimated, based upon past attendance at the back to school
events, that 3,000 students could attend the event this year.
Date: June 8, 2018 Report No. 2018-069
Families can register students online at the Denton Back to School Fair website by visiting
https://dentonbacktoschool.org/. A registration form must be submitted for each child.
Information on the fair has been distributed by Denton ISD to students and families and additional
communications, marketing, and outreach will take place over the next few weeks.
The group is working together to collect donations for backpacks and school supplies. Individuals,
non-profits, and businesses can give to the event by visiting https://dentonbacktoschool.org/ and
clicking on “Help a Student”. The United Way of Denton County is acting as fiscal agent for the
event.
CONCLUSION:
Additional marketing and communications for the event will be distributed throughout the months
of June and July from the City, United Way of Denton County, and participating organizations.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
Report on active contracts on the City’s website and associated change orders that have been
executed.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
At the June 4, 2018 City Council meeting, Council Member Meltzer requested a report be made
available on the City website detailing active contracts along with change order information. The
purpose of this informal staff report is to provide information about the change order process and
on-going efforts to report active contracts with change order information.
The City enters into numerous contract types, including but not limited to, procurement, leases,
memorandums of understanding, and temporary easements. Procurement contracts are published
on the City website to create transparency with citizens, vendors, and other agencies. The
website includes contracts awarded by City Council and small contracts executed by
Procurement staff.
Currently, there is no centralized storage of all contracts and change orders. Each department
manages their contracts separately and Materials Management monitors contract expiration,
value, and not to exceed amounts manually. Change orders are stored with each contract and
managed individually, added to the contract file as departments request modifications.
The City is working on a centralized contract management solution. Newly purchased contract
management software will house all contracts and change orders. The software will also interface
with the City’s financial software, assisting in managing the contract not to exceed amount,
contract expiration, and obligations of the contractor and the City. The new software is currently
in the early stages of development, with a planned implementation in October 2018.
In the interim, Technology Services is reviewing the information available in the financial
software to identify change orders for construction projects. The report would review
modifications to the purchase order showing an increase or decrease in contract value. The report
would not identify change orders that did not result in a contract value change.
BACKGROUND:
Contract change orders occur due to modifications to the scope of work or changes in the
products or services needed during the contract term. Change orders for goods and services are
tracked on a change order log and stored with the corresponding contract. These types of change
orders seldom result in an increase in the contract’s total not to exceed value.
Date: June 8, 2018 Report No. 2018-070
Construction change orders may be the result of a change in project plans or materials needed.
These change orders are signed by the contractor, architect/engineer, project manager, and the
City’s authorized agent. The authorized agent is the Purchasing Manager or City Manager,
depending on the individual or cumulative change order value. Construction change orders may
not result in an overall price change, but often involve purchase order price changes.
CONCLUSION:
The City is working towards a centralized contract management solution for all contracts and
change orders. Software will provide an overview of all contract types, values, terms, and change
orders. The new software will also manage contract spend and not-to-exceed contract totals.
Implementation is planned for October 2018 and will include all future contracts.
