General Information & Status Update A. Sara Hensley Appointed as Assistant City Manager – In a Tuesday, April 23, 2019 press release, the City announced the appointment of Sara Hensley to the position of Assistant City Manager.

Hensley most recently served as the Parks and Recreation Director for the City of Austin and served as Interim Assistant City Manager for two years. In this role, she was responsible for the oversight of five departments: Austin Public Health, Austin Public Library, Austin Parks and Recreation, Austin Animal Services, and the Office of Real Estate.

Please see the attached press release for more information. Staff Contact: Stuart Birdseye, City Manager’s Office B. Electric Lawn Equipment Rebates – On April 16, Council Member Meltzer requested information on a rebate program for electric lawn care equipment. Staff conducted research and could not find any records of a previous program in Denton, although a lawn care loaner program was offered through Keep Denton Beautiful many years ago. A rebate for this type of equipment could fit within the goals of the GreenSense program. GreenSense is reviewed annually, and the Electric Lawn Equipment rebate can be reviewed for inclusion in the program in the future. For reference, a lawn rebate program similar to this is the Mow Down Smog rebate that is offered in San Antonio through CPS Energy. Staff contact: Katherine Barnett, Sustainability C. Brighter Street Lights – On April 16, Council Member Briggs requested information about the process for having new street lights installed. Generally, these requests originate with the Traffic Division of the Capital Projects Department who complete a needs assessment in the area. Depending on the need at the location, a new street light can be installed once budget and electrical infrastructure are determined, or more commonly, bulbs in nearby streetlights can be replaced with brighter bulbs to increase the light in an area. As an example, the lighting at the cul-de-sac backing up to Sequoia Park near the intersection of Boyd 2 St. and Seminole Ave. was recently upgraded with higher wattage (brighter) bulbs to better serve the area which backs up to a heavily treed drainage area. DME also installed one additional light on an existing pole to further address concerns expressed by residents in the area. Additionally, the Request for Proposals for LED street lighting (and smart controls) has recently closed and the bids are now being evaluated. This purchase will be coming forward on upcoming PUB and Council agendas for consideration. If approved, modern LED streetlights will be ordered to allow DME to begin retrofitting all existing high-pressure-sodium street lights with LED lighting fixtures. The LED lights will be more efficient, last longer, and provide higher quality light output. Staff contact: George Morrow, DME/Todd Estes, Capital Projects D. Carl Gene Young, Sr. Park Sprayground Opening Day – The Carl Gene Young, Sr. Park Sprayground will open for the summer season on Friday, May 10th. The sprayground will be open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. through September 30. The sprayground features a tall water-spinning flower that is surrounded on the spraypad by ground sprays and additional sprayers. The new spraygound was designed to entertain children of all ages and abilities and encourage interaction and play. Since its opening last summer, the sprayground has become a very popular park feature and great addition to a vibrant and active neighborhood and community. Staff contact: Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation E. Downtown Advertising at the Embassy Suites – At the April 2 Committee on Citizen Engagement meeting, Council Member Briggs requested information on what efforts the Convention and Visitor’s Bureau (CVB) made to advertise the downtown area to visitors at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Denton Convention Center. The CVB provided the following information on how they advertise the downtown and various attractions in Denton: • Literature at the front desk – A brochure highlighting Denton attractions including downtown is available at the front desk to all hotel customers and visitors. A new batch of these brochures were delivered on March 15. • Denton Live – This magazine is provided to the hotel to be utilized as an in-room guide to all things Denton. The current Spring-Summer Visitor guide features a photo of the downtown square on the front cover. • Welcome/Visitor table - The CVB will have a visitor table next to the registration desk at larger conventions held at the Embassy. CVB staff man the table to inform the delegates about Denton and the downtown area. • Convention bags - Denton literature is provided to the delegates for any group or convention that the CVB books regardless of the hotel they are utilizing. The CVB will also provide the literature to groups the CVB doesn’t book if they call and request the literature. Without the direct request, the CVB is not aware they are coming to Denton, for the hotels do not disclose the groups they book to the CVB. • Social media – The CVB social media team provides access to the hotel’s social media staff member to dropbox images of downtown, links to major events, and links to “Dentoning this Week” blog. 3 • Conference recruiting – The CVB showcases the downtown area to all meeting planners that are brought to Denton for prospective conferences. The CVB is confident that the uniqueness of downtown is a large reason that the city is selected for upcoming conferences. • Transportation – The CVB arranges for transportation to- and from the square for larger conventions. Staff also works with the local businesses to alert them of upcoming conferences that may result in an influx of customers while the conference is in town. Staff Contact: Sarah Kuechler, Public Affairs F. DCTA Early Voting Free Ride Options During Arts & Jazz Festival – The Denton Civic Center is one of four Early Voting polling locations in the City of Denton for the May 4 municipal election. Early Voting started on April 22 and will last through April 30. Because Early Voting coincides with the Denton Arts & Jazz Festival, which will take place this weekend in Quakertown Park with activities scheduled in the Civic Center, the Civic Center will be closed as an Early Voting polling location on Saturday, April 27. To make other Early Voting polling locations across the City of Denton more accessible on April 27, DCTA has developed vouchers (see attached) that can be used to access other polling locations in the City free of charge (vouchers will only be valid for use on April 27). Residents may present the voucher or inform the bus driver that their destination is to or from a polling location to ride DCTA routes 4, 6, and 8 for free on April 27 to access either the UNT Greek Life or the County Elections Office Early Voting polling locations. During the Arts & Jazz Festival, vouchers will be available at the DCTA booth, Civic Center front desk, and Senior Center. Dr. Stephanie Krauth, Associate Vice President of Student Engagement at TWU has distributed copies of the attached flyer to TWU students as the Civic Center is the closest Early Voting polling location to the TWU campus. Staff contact: Rachel Wood, City Manager’s Office G. Animal Services Wins Best of Denton Award – Denton Animal Services was awarded the 2019 Best of Denton Award in the Pet Rescue Organization category. Over 16,000 readers of the Denton Record Chronicle and DentonRC.com voted and selected Denton Animal Services as the winner. A special section was published in the Denton Record-Chronicle and DentonRC.com on April 19th, announcing the winners to the public. Special thanks to all of our staff, volunteers, community supporters, Animal Shelter Advisory Committee and the Denton Animal Support Foundation for the continued support. Pictured below Tiffany Thomson, Director of Customer Service and Randi Weinberg, Animal Services Manager. Staff Contact: Tiffany Thomson, Customer Service 4 H. Sycamore UPRR Crossing Update – Union Pacific Railroad has completed the first stage of repairs for the crossing at Sycamore St. The section portion of repairs will be completed in May at the area shown in the aerial map below. Staff Contact: Robin Davis, Capital Projects I. Affordable Housing– After the presentation to City Council on General Obligation Bonds and affordable housing, Council Member Armintor sought additional 5 information regarding Mortgage Revenue Bonds, the Denton County Housing Finance Corporation and any relationship between Denton County Housing Finance Corporation and Denton Affordable Housing Corporation. Mortgage Revenue Bonds (MRBs) are something more specific than the GO Bond information that was presented in City Council meeting on April 16, 2019. MRBs are tax-exempt bonds that state and local governments issue through housing finance agencies (HFAs) to help fund below-market-interest-rate mortgages for first-time qualifying homebuyers. Eligible borrowers are first-time homebuyers with low to moderate incomes below 115 percent of median family income. The City of Denton does not have a HFA. There is a Denton County Housing Finance Corporation. It was formed January 17, 1980 by Denton County with oversight from the Denton Commissioners Court. County Judge Eads serves as the county representative on the Board. It has assisted in issuing bonds to developers for affordable housing projects in the past. Its most recent activities have been to issue grants to local nonprofits using the proceeds from past bonds issuance. Housing Finance Corporations (HFC) are governed by LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE CHAPTER 394. HOUSING FINANCE CORPORATIONS IN MUNICIPALITIES AND COUNTIES. They are organized as public nonprofit corporations. “The corporation may issue bonds and carry out the public purposes for which it is incorporated on behalf of and for the benefit of the general public, the local government, and this state.” The code sets how it can be created, board formation, any restrictions. The organizations By-Laws set any term limits. There are not restrictions in the code on residential development by HFC bond support (multifamily developments, single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, and townhomes) other than the units must be “occupied by persons of low and moderate income”. Housing type would be governed by all other requirements in the city’s codes and ordinances. Temporary or transitional housing (group homes, transitional homes, shelter, etc.) is not identified as eligible in the code nor could any project developed or assisted in development through bonds by a HFC be identified. In regard to these types of projects, there would need to be a legal opinion and/or more research. There is no existing connection between a Denton County Housing Finance Corporation (DCHFC) and Denton Affordable Housing Corporation (DAHC). One may issue bonds in support of the development of affordable housing (DCHFC) and one manages a portfolio of affordable housing rentals in Denton (DAHC). Staff Contact: Danielle Shaw, Community Development J. DTV and College Students – During the April 23 Council work session, the question was raised about how DTV engages with our universities to provide learning opportunities for students. DTV typically has one college student intern each semester to help with video production. We identify these students by leveraging our relationship with local college media departments and journalism schools. Students help meet an array of production needs and must be enrolled in school and receive credit. We also work with the Mayborn School of Journalism at UNT to identify anchor/talent for our DTV Newsbreak program. By strategically engaging these students, DTV creates capacity that not only broadens 6 our scope, but also shares a valuable real-world training ground for volunteers. Interested students can contact Brian Plinck, City of Denton video producer, at brian.plink@cityofdenton.com. Staff Contact: Billy Matthews, Public Affairs/DTV K. Closed Captioning – During the April 23 Council meeting, Council Member Armintor requested information on various closed captioning options for public meeting broadcasts including a staff recommendation. Staff has confirmed that this item will be submitted for the upcoming fiscal year as a City Council supplemental budget request. The necessary equipment, process, and cost information will be provided in the presentation. Staff Contact: Billy Matthews, Public Affairs/DTV L. I-35 Service Road Congestion at Teasley Lane - At the April 16 City Council Meeting, Council Member Hudspeth requested staff work with TxDOT to find solutions to traffic congestion at the I-35E service road at Teasley Lane. Staff will discuss this issue with TxDOT in the scheduled monthly meeting and review options to alleviate the congestion at this interchange. Given the ongoing construction along I-35E, especially at a majority of the interchanges within the City, the Teasley Lane interchange is experiencing a considerable increase in traffic. The existing geometrics and the traffic signals at these intersections is not designed to accommodate the additional volume of traffic and as a result there may be a considerable delay, especially during the peak hours. The Teasley Lane interchange is located between the US 377/Ft. Worth Drive and the Loop 288/Lilian Miller interchanges along the I-35E corridor. The US 377/Ft. Worth Drive is currently under construction and will be widened to be a six-lane facility from I-35 E to FM 1830 and the Loop 288/Lillian Miller interchange is also under construction. As a result of this construction activity, traffic from the adjacent interchanges is diverted to the Teasley Lane/I-35 E interchange. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects M. Traffic Congestion at 380 and Geesling – As a safety measure during the ongoing construction of the Mayhill widening project, Blagg Road has been closed for traffic near its intersection with Mayhill Road. As such, the local traffic is being diverted northbound on Geesling Street. Based on the traffic control plan, there is no signage or notification along westbound Blagg Road until Geesling Street. In order to provide additional options for local traffic, staff will provide additional signage (regarding closure of Blagg Road at Mayhill Road) near the intersection of Blagg Road/Lakeview Boulevard. This will provide additional options for motorists to either use Lakeview Boulevard to go to Mills Road or University Drive. This interim fix will alleviate the existing traffic conditions at the intersection of Geesling Street/UN 380 (University Drive). As the proposed closure on Blagg Road is scheduled for another eight months, City staff will conduct traffic signal warrants analysis at the intersection of Geesling Street/US 380 in the next few weeks and if a temporary signal is warranted will obtain a TxDOT permit for installation. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects N. Palladium Apartments Access and Traffic Signal – A Council member has requested information on whether the Palladium Apartments would have direct 7 access to Sherman Drive and if a traffic signal would be installed at the intersection of Sherman and Poinsettia Street. The proposed Palladium Apartment project includes a total of 150 units that are projected to generate 52 morning and 66 evening peak hour trips and little over 800 daily trips. Given the low volume of traffic generated by the proposed apartments the overall level of service at the intersection of Sherman Drive and Poinsettia Street after the project is completed is ‘A’ and a traffic signal is not warranted at this time. During the peak hour the availability of gaps in traffic along Sherman Drive is lower which may result in increased amount of delay for motorist along Poinsettia Street. Once the construction of the apartment project is completed and the units are occupied, staff will collect data and analyze this intersection to check if a signal is warrant at that time. It should be noted that Sherman Drive is a TxDOT facility and any changes recommended to the existing configuration (including signal) has to be reviewed and approved by TxDOT. Based on review of existing conditions a traffic signal is not warranted and no changes are recommended. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects O. Creek Fencing at Arts & Jazz Festival – On Thursday, April 27, staff received several inquiries from Council members about the placement of fences along the creek through Quakertown Park during the preparation for the Arts & Jazz Fest. After consultation with Emergency Management, Parks and Recreation staff made the decision on Tuesday, April 25, to have the fences put up along the creek due to concerns that the significant weekend rain projected at that time could cause the creek to flood and become a safety hazard for the public. With a now diminished forecast for rain, staff will be removing sections of the fence in the highly trafficked areas of the park to provide additional walkways. If the Saturday evening storms are more serious that currently forecasted, the fencing can be reinstalled if the creek level rises. Staff contact: Ryan Adams, Public Affairs P. PEG Fund Information – During the April 23, 2019 Council Work Session presentation on council meeting recording options, various Council members requested information regarding funds received from the Public, Educational, and Government Access Channel (PEG) fees charged to all telecommunications subscribers. Staff previously submitted two Internal Staff Reports to the Council related to PEG fees. ISR 2018-134 reports details PEG fee expenditures from FY 2008-09 through FY 2017-18. ISR 2018-146 expands on several of the PEG fee topics presented in ISR 2018-134. Both reports are attached. Staff contact: Sarah Kuechler, Public Affairs Q. Water and Wastewater Impact Fees – During the April 23 Council meeting, it was requested that to have slides included during the budget presentation outlining how water and wastewater impact fees that were collected have been used. Staff has confirmed that this information will be included in the presentations, including a breakdown of each fund into separate slides. For reference, the attached Informal Staff Report No. 2018-176 was distributed on December 7, 2018 which included information on projects funded with impact fees for the prior 5 to 10 years. Staff contact: David Gaines, Finance 8 R. Noise Complaints at Backyard on Bell – Staff will be taking an enhanced approach to addressing complaints of noise violations at Backyard on Bell, a live music venue located at 410 N. Bell Street. Upon opening in the Fall of 2016, DPD has consistently received complaints of the loud music from the establishment. To date, at least 82 calls have been received from 35 different complainants, resulting in two citations. In August of 2018, staff from the City Manager’s Office, DPD, and Economic Development met with the business owners to determine how to address the problem. The owners committed to shutting down the live music at 10:00 p.m. (in accordance with state and local law) and understood that citations would be issued for a second violation in a given night. After violations and complaint calls continued, police increased enforcement in November. Since then, the violations have not abated. Going forward, DPD will issue one warning per day, with any subsequent violations being issued a citation. An accrual of three adjudicated violations could result in additional fines or the revocation of the establishment’s alcoholic beverage license by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission. This new level of enforcement will be communicated to the owners and managers of Backyard on Bell prior to its initiation. Staff contact: Chief Frank Dixon, Police S. Temporary Lane Closures on US 380 – Beginning, 9 a.m. Tuesday, April 30, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will have temporary daily lane closures in the eastbound right lanes on US 380/University Drive from West Mayhill Road to East Mayhill Road. This closure is a part of the ongoing Mayhill road widening project and will allow crews to safely demo the curb inlets in the area. Weather permitting, TxDOT plans to reopen the lanes by Friday, May 3. Staff Contact: Stephanie Yates, Public Affairs T. Temporary Lane Closures on US 377 – Beginning Monday, April 29 until Tuesday, April 30, Roselawn Drive from US-377 to Bernard Street will have a temporary lane closure from 7 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. daily. This temporary closure will allow crews to safely repair the sanitary line in the area. The lane closure will be controlled by traffic flaggers during this time. Beginning Wednesday, May 1 through Friday, May 3, Hobson Lane at its intersection with FM 1830 will have intermittent lane closures from 7 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. daily to allow crews to place the sanitary line across the roadway. The lane closures will be controlled by traffic flaggers during this time. Staff contact: Stephanie Yates, Public Affairs U. Secondary Access to Providence Place – At the February 12, 2019 Work Session, Council Member Hudspeth requested information relating to a secondary access for Fire personnel from Mayhill Road to Providence Place. Additionally, information was requested on whether the gravel road that currently connects Providence Place to Mayhill would be improved. While the gravel road does not meet the Fire Code requirements for a primary access road, it is suitable as a secondary access road. Additionally, the gravel road is a private road owned by Providence Place and, as a result, the City is not able to improve the condition of the road and it is not listed in any capital project plans. Staff contact: Pritam Deshmukh, Capital Projects 9 V. Water Department Receives Texas Optimization Program Recognition Award – The City of Denton Lake Lewisville Water Treatment Plant received a recognition award for achieving 12 continuous months in compliance with the Texas Optimization Program (TOPS). TOPS is a voluntary, non-regulatory program that is designed to improve plant performance, with the goal of lowering the risk of waterborne disease by reducing the number of pathogenic organisms that could pass through a treatment plant. Only 21 of the 325 treatment plants in Texas are participating in this program, and only a subset of these 21 plants have received a recognition award. Texas Commission on Environmental Quality staff visited the Lewisville Treatment plant on Wednesday to deliver the award in person. Staff contact: Kenneth Banks, Utilities. W. Spring Storm Impacts on DME System – This past Tuesday evening, rain, wind and lightning storm resulted in a handful of electrical outages as a result of direct lightning hits. There were a total of 15 confirmed outages, 8 breaker trips, and 3 breaker lock-out, affecting 3204 customers. 2791 of those customers were out for less than 10 minutes when the locked open breakers were closed back in, and 534 customers were included in confirmed outages. Of the 15 total outages, only 2 were more than 100 customers. 151 customers were out for approximately 3 hours in the Forrestridge neighborhood. 146 customers were out for approximately 2 hours at Teasley and Londonderry. Lightning strikes cause DME protective devices (fuses, switches, breakers, etc.) to open in order to keep the electric voltage surge from damaging DME or customer equipment. If there is no resulting damage after inspections, DME replaces blown fuses and/or recloses open protective devices. In addition, many critical locations in the electric system also have special lightning protection installed to take the surge from lightning hit directly to the ground where it is diffused. Staff Contact: George Morrow, DME X. Denton County 2019 Homelessness Data Report – The annual Point-In-Time (PIT) Count was conducted Thursday, January 24, 2019. The report is complete and the results are available for review (see attached). The report features how this information is used to identify barriers to housing for families in crisis and develop resources to reduce those barriers. In addition to PIT Count data, the report highlights the various data sources and the definitions of homelessness that inform the collective efforts to implement data-driven solutions for people experiencing homelessness in our community to Make Homelessness Rare, Brief, and Nonrecurring. The full report is available in multiple locations including: • The City’s Community Development page and Ending Homelessness Strategic Initiatives page. • United Way of Denton County website • Denton County Homeless Coalition website and Facebook channel A public event is being planned for the end of May to celebrate the volunteers who contributed to making the count successful. The community event will also provide a report of the finding and highlight current initiatives. More 10 information will be shared as the event details are finalized. Staff Contact: Danielle Shaw, Community Development Y. Sewage Release at 19Twenty Apartments – Staff received a report on Tuesday evening about a potential sewage discharge at the 19Twenty Apartments located at 1920 Ruddell. Staff from Wastewater Collections were dispatched and arrived on the scene shortly after the notification. The sewage was coming from a clean out pipe that had been opened (See Image). Apartment management was contacted and used a camera to determine that there was a collapse or similar structural failure in the apartment’s internal sewer pipe system. The internal piping was flushed enough so that the sewage release ceased, and Industrial Pretreatment was notified. Industrial Pretreatment arrived at the property the following morning, and repairs by a private plumbing company are underway. A citation was issued to the apartment manager, and illicit discharge report was submitted to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. The complex manager was informed that every day the problem continues will result in another citation. As of mid-day Thursday, the cleanouts have been cleared and caps replaced. The service line repairs are still underway, and sewage is being captured and pumped to a working cleanout on the property. Current estimates are that the service line repair will be completed sometime on Thursday. Staff will continue to work this case until the repair is completed by the plumbing contractor. Staff Contact: Kenneth Banks, Utilities Administration 11 Image above showing open cleanouts. Image below showing cleanouts with caps in place after initial repairs. Z. MLK Recreation Center Trash Screening Update – On January 11, 2019, City Council received an update in the Friday Report on the process to improve the placement and appearance of the dumpsters at MLK Jr Recreation Center. Parks and Recreation coordinated with Solid Waste to identify an interim solution to address the issues. Staff had new, smaller dumpsters delivered on Thursday, January 10. The new containers, fit the existing enclosure and will give Solid Waste trucks the space they need for unloading. Over the course of the last few months, staff believes the smaller containers have been able to meet the needs of the recreation center with some scheduling modifications. While this step improved the appearance of the dumpster, staff requested additional enhancements to secure the site. Recently, Parks Maintenance staff completed the installation of gates and increased the height of the revetment (see pictures below). Often, residents and/or local businesses use the dumpster to dispose of unwanted trash and debris thus creating challenges in keeping the site clean and available for recreation center use. This type of use is prohibited, and staff is working to reduce illegal dumping. Staff will continue to monitor the improvements and determine overall effectiveness.

BACKGROUND: On Friday, September 21, Informal Staff Report number 2018-134 was distributed to City Council providing an overview of the ten year PEG Fund history. Following that report, City Council asked two follow-up questions regarding PEG funding: 1) Who applied for the grants?

Council Chambers, Work Session Room, and DTV Control Room upgrades FY 2012-13 $20,064 FY 2013-14 $84,844 DISCUSSION: Pursuant to section 66.009 of the Texas Utility Code, all cable providers within the Denton city limits are required to collect monthly Public, Education, and Government (PEG) fees from every cable subscriber. With the adoption of Ordinance 2010-302 (attached), the City’s PEG fee is 1 percent of the gross revenue of the cable services provided. The City currently collects PEG fees from Frontier (FIOS), Grande Communications, and Charter Communications. Responses to City Council’s follow-up questions are outlined below: Response to Question 1 In FY 2011-2012, the City began a grant program for other PEG channels in Denton. Each grant agreement is for the City to provide funding to assist with the costs of capital equipment relating to providing Public, Educational, and Government cable television services within the City of Denton in accordance with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations. The grants are only available to the four entities that provide PEG programming to Denton residents. Each grant is for $10,000. The number of times the grant was awarded is indicated next to each entity outlined below: University of North Texas – NTTV (6) University of North Texas (Mayborn School of Journalism) – DCTV (6)* Texas Woman’s University (1) 20 Date: October 5, 2018 Report No. 2018-146 Denton Independent School District (6) *Prior to the grant program, The Mayborn School of Journalism was reimbursed for some capital costs for DCTV (Denton Community Television). This reimbursement included installation and equipment costs incurred when the service was transitioned from Charter Communications to UNT. Additional funding was provided to upgrade the public access channel equipment in FY2014/15 and FY2015/16. On January 1, 2011, the City’s franchise agreement (local jurisdiction and regulation) with Charter Communications expired. By an interlocal agreement between the City and the University of North Texas, the Mayborn School of Journalism began operations of the City’s public access channel. DCTV produces programming for citizens and journalism students . Both the News and Strategic Communications departments produce programming that include a local newscast, sports, and diverse points of view from the citizens of Denton on Charter Cable Channel 191 and Frontier FIOS Channel 39. ISR report 2012-001 is included as an attachment. This report discusses the recommendation of grant funding to these entities. Response to Question 2 Expenditure detail for the Council Chambers, Work Session Room, and DTV Control Room Upgrades for the fiscal years requested is included as an attachment. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. ATTACHMENTS: Ordinance 2010-302 ISR 2012-001 PEG Fund expenditure summary (ISR # 2018-034) FY 13 / FY 14 Council Chamber, WS Room, and DTV Control Room Upgrade Spending Detail STAFF CONTACT: Antonio Puente, Jr., Director of Finance (940)-349-7283 Antonio.Puente@cityofdenton.com 21 22 23 24 Date: January 6, 2011 Report No. 2012-001 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Public, Education, and Government (PEG) fund grant. DISCUSSION: As part of the adopted FY 2011-12 budget, staff recommended a grant of $10,000 for each of the four PEG channels to be spent on capital equipment related to their channel as defined by the FCC. Staff recommends a PEG fund grant presentation take place at a City Council meeting with the four entities operating PEG channels in attendance. BACKGOUND: The City’s local franchise agreement with Sammons Communications (Marcus Communications then Charter Communications) that expired on December 31, 2010, set out certain conditions and requirements for the (then) only cable provider in the City. One of the requirements was a PEG subscriber fee that would help support local television. Pursuant to ordinance 95-191, and pursuant to section 66.009 of the Texas Utility Code, the City required Charter Communications, effective January 1, 2005, to collect a $0.50 per subscriber, per month fee to be used for PEG capital items and other lawful purposes. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) restricts the use of the fee, allowing the funds only to be used to acquire additional production equipment, capital, and other lawful purposes which include the equipment’s operation and maintenance. In September 2005, Senate Bill 5 (SB 5) was approved by the Texas Legislature. Under SB 5, the City’s cable franchise agreement, upon expiration, was replaced with a state-issued franchise agreement through the Public Utility Commission. In 2006, Verizon Communications acquired a state franchise, began offering cable service, and started collecting the fee from its Denton customers. Additionally, in 2008, Grande Communications, operating under a state franchise, added the City’s channel (DTV) to its lineup and began collecting the fee as well. As of December 2008, all three cable providers in the City (Charter, Verizon, and Grande) were collecting the fee monthly and remitting it to the City on a quarterly basis. On January 1, 2011, upon expiration of the local franchise agreement with Charter Communications, the City had a one-time option to either leave the fee the same ($0.50 per subscriber, per month) or change it to 1 percent of the monthly gross revenue of video services. This option is spelled out in Chapter 66 of SB 5, “After the expiration of the incumbent cable franchise, all the state-issued franchise holders pay, at the City’s choice, either a PEG capital support fee equal to 1 percent of its gross video revenue or a fee equal to the per subscriber cash payments that were made under the expired incumbent’s cable franchise.” 25 Date: January 6, 2011 Report No. 2012-001 With Council’s leadership, the City elected to change the fee to 1 percent of the monthly gross revenue of video services. As a result of changing the fee calculation, the City has seen an increase in revenue and is in a position to share funds with the remaining PEG channel entities in the form of a grant. Along with the City’s channel – DTV, there are four other PEG channels operating in Denton. The channels include the public access channel – DCTV, Denton ISD, TWU, and UNT. Pursuant to SB 5, there will not be any additional channels in the future. These PEG channels offer citizens a viewing alternative, provide an opportunity for these entities to promote local information, and deliver valuable learning experiences for many university and high school students. As spelled out in the draft agreement (Attachment A.), a formal process is outlined for all four grant recipients requiring documentation for all expenditures to ensure compliance with FCC restrictions. All back-up materials for expenditures, including invoices and cancelled checks, are required to be submitted to the City before the end of the fiscal year. FISCAL INFORMATION: As part of the City’s annual budget process, a PEG budget detailing expenditures is provided to Council. Since 2005, all allowable capital expenditures for DTV have been made using PEG fees. From January 2005 thru September 2010, $694,838.38 has been collected and $433,118.35 has been spent. The largest expenditure since the subscriber fee’s inception was for technical renovations at City Hall. The passage of a City ordinance, 09-142, amended the FY 2008-09 budget allowing for an adjustment to the PEG fund of ($171,929.97) for costs associated with a complete digital upgrade of the audio, video, and control room for the Work Session room and the Council Chamber. At the conclusion of the local franchise agreement with Charter in 2010, City Council approved up to $75,000 in PEG funds for capital expenses related to the launch of DCTV at the Mayborn School. Prior to that, the City has not shared these funds. While the City has yet to receive a complete year of financials at the new rate, quarter to quarter fee revenues have increased. Staff continues to monitor the PEG fund’s balance regularly and maintains a balance of at least 30 percent of the estimated annual revenues for unforeseen emergencies. This assures that the City has sufficient funding but also gives staff the opportunity to determine if and when it is financially possible to share funds in the future. The grants will be fully funded from account 212002.6506, PEG equipment, which is totally supported by the cable subscriber fee. No other City funds will be needed. RECOMMENDATION: Unless otherwise directed by Council, upon execution of the contracts by the City Manager, staff will proceed with finalizing the grant agreements and scheduling a symbolic presentation of the grant funds to DCTV (public access), TWU, UNT and Denton ISD at $10,000 each for a total of $40,000 in grants at a City Council meeting in early 2012. 26 Date: January 6, 2011 Report No. 2012-001 STAFF CONTACT: Billy Matthews, Cable Television Supervisor (940) 349-7272 Billy.Matthews@cityofdenton.com ATTACHMENT: A.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: During the November 13, 2018 City Council meeting, information was requested regarding how impact fees have been used in the past and how staff monitors impact fee revenue. Below is an overview of how staff currently monitors impact fee revenue and expenditures. DISCUSSION: In 1998, the City of Denton started collecting water and wastewater impact fees to fund the cost of growth- related infrastructure. The City has successfully completed four impact fee studies since 1998, each study calculates the appropriate recovery fee to fund eligible impact fee projects for a ten-year period. The State of Texas requires that these studies are updated every five years, allowing the City to confirm and identify growth -related infrastructure and the appropriate recovery fees to pay for that infrastructure. The City of Denton charges impact fees based on plat date, fees are then collected at the time of permitting. Each year, the Water and Wastewater Departments utilize impact fee revenue to fund debt service on eligible impact fee projects. Several impact fee-eligible projects service all zones across the City, such as treatment plants and transmission lines. For this reason, it’s difficult to track impact fee revenue by individual project or impact fee zone. Staff tracks the total revenue for water and wastewater separately, this process insures that the total amount of impact fees collected do not exceed the total recoverable cost of eligible water and wastewater projects. Since 2014, the Water Department has received $25.7 million in total impact fee revenue and has utilized $18.5 million to fund debt service of projects. The Wastewater Department has received $12.4 million total in revenue and utilized $10.4 million to fund debt service. The two tables below, summarize impact fee revenue and the amount of revenue used to fund debt service since 2014. Water Impact Fees Fiscal Year Total Revenue Impact Fee Project Debt Service 2014 $ 3,524,313 $ 3,100,000 2015 $ 4,429,296 $ 3,600,000 2016 $ 4,983,401 $ 4,000,000 2017 $ 4,998,751 $ 4,000,000 2018 $ 7,837,963 $ 3,755,000 Total $ 25,773,724 $ 18,455,000 Wastewater Impact Fees Fiscal Year Total Revenue Impact Fee Project Debt Service 2014 $ 1,667,574 $ 1,100,000 2015 $ 2,046,725 $ 1,800,000 2016 $ 2,303,008 $ 2,000,000 2017 $ 2,410,274 $ 3,520,000 2018 $ 3,966,842 $ 2,000,000 Total $ 12,394,423 $ 10,420,000 39 Date: December 7, 2018 Report No. 2018-176 Staff has summarized the water and wastewater eligible impact fee projects below, these projects were identified in the 2013 and 2018 impact fee studies.

The Department of Education (ED) applies a broader definition of homelessness for children and youth from the McKinney Vento Act: 1.Literal: Children and youth whose primary nighttime residence is a public or private place not designed for or is ordinarily used as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings e.g. living in cars, parks, public spaces, abandoned buildings, bus or train stations, substandard housing, or similar settings. 2.Doubled-Up: Children and youth who are sharing the housing of other persons due to loss of housing; economic hardship, or a similar reason; are living in motels, hotels, trailer parks, or camping grounds due to the lack of alternative adequate accommodations; are living in emergency or transitional shelters; are abandoned in hospitals; or are awaiting foster care placement. These definitions inform data measurement for the public school systems across the United States. 2019 Denton County Homelessness Data Report 4 Defining Homelessness Identifying how homelessness is defined is important to understanding how data is collected, tracked and utilized. 47 •The primary source of homelessness data in Denton County is the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). Service providers in the Denton County Housing Crisis Response System (HCRS)share information and make referrals for housing assistance and other supportive services through HMIS.When a person experiencing homelessness accesses services in Denton County the most common referral made in the HMIS is through Coordinated Entry (CE). •CE is the system and process that ensures people experiencing homelessness are quickly identified,assessed,prioritized,and referred to housing assistance and supportive services that promote housing stability. •Data collected through CE contributes to the Housing Priority List (HPL),a tool local providers use to quickly identify and consistently track actively homeless households in Denton County.The HPL also helps providers prioritize households for limited resources based on their level of need. •HPL data is visualized through the Denton County Homelessness Data Dashboard 52019 Denton County Homelessness Data Report Denton County Homelessness Data Dashboard View the full dashboard: www.unitedwaydenton.org/homelessness-data-denton-county 48 •The Denton County Homelessness DataDashboardtracksactivelyhomelesshouseholdsinDentonCountyfrommonth-to-month.Actively Homeless households arehouseholdscurrentlyseekinghousingassistancewhosewhereaboutsareknownbyDentonCountyserviceproviders. •In Denton County Veterans,chronicallyhomelesshouseholdsandhouseholdsfleeingdomesticviolencearespecialpopulationsprioritizedforavailablehousingresources. •Chronic homelessness includes individuals experiencing literal homelessness with a disabling condition who have beencontinuouslyhomelessforayearormoreorhavehadatleastfourepisodesofhomelessnessinthepastthreeyears. •Improved data management is crucial to reducing homelessness.Data cleanup efforts are useful for identifying whichhouseholdsareactivelyexperiencinghomelessinourcommunity.Significant decreases in the number of actively homelesshouseholds(such as the 27%decrease in March 2019)may be explained by people no longer actively seeking services byself-resolving their homelessness and/or moving out of Denton. 2019 Denton County Homelessness Data Report 6 Denton County Homelessness Data Dashboard 49 With a lack of available housing in Denton County,HMIS,theCEsystemandtheHPLtoolprovidedatatohelpidentifyoverallcommunityhousingneedsandgapsinhousing.

BACKGROUND This is follow up information to Informal Staff Report No. 2019-19 which was included in the February 1, 2019 Friday Report. In that report, staff identified three Texas cities that provide municipal internet in various forms to their citizens: Mont Belvieu, Greenville, and New Braunfels. Each of these cities give examples of providing the service in different forms, and briefly describe the legal process for providing it (if applicable). This report describes the next steps if the City Council desires to proceed with developing a municipal fiber infrastructure. However, in each of the cases in Texas, there were legal considerations. In the case of Greenville Electric, the City retained outside counsel who provided them a legal argument to raise against internet providers wishing to challenge the municipality’s ability to provide this service. In addition, Mont Belvieu received a declaratory ruling from the Chambers County District Court in favor of the City which allowed them to issue public securities to begin installing fiber lines to provide their residents with high-speed internet. Both of those cities are remote population centers and the internet service provider did not wish to challenge because it may have been that there are not enough customers to make it financially feasible to do so. It is important to note that Denton is in a different category because of its size, proximity to the metroplex, and existing fiber infrastructure that has been put in place by current internet providers. So, there could be additional legal and business case challenges presented here that would not be comparable to the other Texas city examples. It is recommended that there be an extensive legal study to be conducted if a consultant is to be engaged for a feasibility study. Nationally, Fort Collins, CO and Chattanooga, TN can serve as examples of the process that a City can go through to install the necessary infrastructure and the offer a full retail internet service. The conditions that these cities faced are similar to Denton’s and the cities responded by entering the competitive market to provide these services. Also included in this report is information about Alameda, California who began offering broadband services to residents in the early 2000’s. The power and telecom utility could not curtail spending in the broadband division and had to continually transfer monies from the electric division to support operations. After over one hundred million dollars in infrastructure costs, the telecom division was eventually sold to Comcast for $15 million. For reference, the City of Denton is nearly 90 sq. miles, and local internet-only provider advertised prices for Denton are listed below. Note that there are taxes and additional fees including installation and wifi routers not included in this base pricing. 71 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 Frontier Communications Internet Only (for 76208) Speed Price per month Notes 50/50Mbps $29.99 2-year contract 100/100Mbps $39.99 2-year contract 200/200Mbps $39.99 2-year contract 300/300Mbps $99.99 2-year contract Charter Spectrum Communications Internet Only (for 76208) Speed Price per month Notes 200Mbps $44.99 400Mbps $64.99 940Mbps $104.99 Fort Collins, Colorado (Population 165,000, 55.78 sq. miles)1 Fort Collins Connexion is the new community-owned fiber network being constructed in Fort Collins, CO. The city is currently installing fiber in neighborhoods throughout the city, and service is expected to begin between July and December 2019. The city will continue to build out the infrastructure through 2022. Fort Collins started looking into the benefits and needs of a municipal high-speed fiber network in 2010. The initial research was conducted in order for the city to take place in the “Think big with a gig: Our experimental fiber network” competition that was held by Google. After Kansas City prevailed in that competition, Fort Collins and Colorado State University, which is located within the city, partnered to explore the benefits of making the University and city a future-proof “Connected City.” Their research shows that over the next 30 to 50 years fiber is expected to be the required infrastructure. Once the fiber is in place, it is easily adaptable to handle greater speeds in the future as needs continue to evolve. The city then conducted a series of public meetings to gauge community support and simultaneously clear legislative hurdles, including voting to overturn Senate Bill 05-152 which prohibited the city from providing public broadband. In-house staff then created a high-level business plan to give a comprehensive list of data, assumptions, goals, and challenges that they were working from to create a municipal retail fiber- to-the-premise (FTTP) that would provide broadband access to the community. In summary, Fort Collins proposed that it would: 1 The information provided about Fort Collins, CO is a summary of the City of Fort Collins Municipal Retail Fiber-to- the-premise (FTTP) Broadband Business Plan, Version III, August 31, 2017 72 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 • Design a fiber grid network to ensure infrastructure is available on a community-wide basis. • Borrow between $130 and $150 million to fund the network construction and systems implementation to all businesses and residences. • Manage construction of the fiber network build. • Design and install fiber drops (connections) to each premise when a customer orders service. • Lease dark fiber as requested by businesses. Dark fiber is unused optical fiber that has been installed. This term usually refers to the potential network capacity. • Develop sales and marketing programs to effectively compete with other local providers. • Develop appropriate customer service and network maintenance staffing models. • Competitive pricing. During this time, Fort Collins held discussions with each of the major incumbents, namely Comcast and Century Link. Each of these companies expressed their strategic commitments and plans to upgrade their systems over time, however they could not offer any specifics or promises. Beginning in 2016, staff conducted extensive community engagement to determine citizen preference among four options: 1. Do nothing – Rely on incumbents to upgrade their systems and provide improved speeds and reliability. 2. 3rd party partnership – Develop a partnership with an existing internet service provider that leverages their expertise and experience combined with the City’s brand and reputation. 3. Wholesale model – The city builds out a fiber network and attracts other service providers to market and operate the system. 4. Retail model – the city enters the business of building out, operating, and providing internet and other services across a city-owned fiber network. The results of face-to-face and online surveys showed that the community was overwhelmingly supportive of the retail model, and so Fort Collins engaged with a consultant to provide a case study analysis of the various business models communities have used.2 In summary, the city felt that “Do nothing” did not meet their strategic goals, and the 3rd party and wholesale model would require the city to make a significant investment in building a network while the success of the investment would be dependent on an external service provider. Another consultant, Uptown Services 3, was hired to support a feasibility evaluation of both retail and wholesale models. The consultant conducted market surveys, evaluated and estimated 2 This analysis is provided as Attachment 1 in the Broadband Business Plan. 3 City of Denton staff held a conference call on March 29, 2019 with Uptown Services to discuss municipal broadband models and to gather general information. 73 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 construction costs, estimated market take rates, and developed a financial model for a full build- out of a fiber network in Fort Collins. Surveys of Fort Collins residents that were conducted by Uptown Services revealed that: • The two incumbents have the vast majority of market share. • Satisfaction for internet service benchmarks was low. • Top residential market needs are: lower prices, increased internet speed, and improved reliability. • Small- to medium-size business market needs are: lower prices and carrier-grade reliability. • Residential market purchase intent is very high. • The project appeal and purchase intent is strongest among younger households. The report assumes that the city builds a fiber network across the entire city limits, operates the network, provides internet and possibly offers other services to subscribers; and takes into account marketing, customer acquisition, repair, maintenance to the network, customer service representatives inside of call centers, and administrative and management oversight functions that will be needed to be created and managed by the City. All of these aspects are needed to provide a successful retail model. The report indicated that in order to achieve all of this, Fort Collins will need to issue bonds in the range of $130 to $150 million to support the construction and infrastructure needed to provide these services. The table below provides a breakdown of these costs: Capital Requirements Amount Network Construction $30M Bond Issuance Fees, Capitalized interest, Financing $13M Contract Installation $7M Facility and Vehicles $6M Fiber Drop, Powering, ONTs $6M Fixed Equipment $5M Engineering, Design, Inspection $4M Engineering, Design, Inspection $4M Back Office Systems and Capital $1M Subtotal $122M Working Capital $10M Contingency $18M Total $150M 74 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 “Critical success factors within the financial model include: 1) cost of network build, 2) take rate (subscribers) of the services from Fort Collins premises and 3) price for service. Critical operational success factors include: 1) successfully operating within a competitive environment vs. a traditional monopolistic utility environment, 2) gaining expertise and experience within a fast-changing technology business and 3) establishing appropriate governance and oversight structures that allow the broadband business to operate in a competitive market.” The report also estimates staffing needs to provide this retail internet service. In year one, there is an anticipated 10.5 FTE’s with a majority of the residential hookups being performed by contractors, and that number increases to 38 FTE’s in Year 5 when the City picks up the installations and network maintenance. The chart below illustrates the consultants staffing estimates, as provided in the Broadband Business Plan: It is important to note that, like Denton, Fort Collins already had some Customer Service Representatives through their other utilities customer service operations. The totals above are in addition to their current staffing levels. In 2016, Uptown Services originally estimated a 38.8 percent subscriber rate for residential and 45 percent for small business. Since that time, a local private competitor began providing a 1Gbps service, and the City decided to resurvey residents and businesses to get new estimates. Based on the survey responses, Uptown Services estimated the City’s retail model take rate to be 28.2 percent. This estimate is comparable to similar municipal benchmarks at the 5-year milestone. Five 75 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 years signifies the completion of the construction period. Extensive cost and revenue projections can be found on pages 54-62 of the Broadband Business Plan. Finally, the City of Fort Collins provides a Broadband Timeline that shows important milestones and achievements at a glance. The City expects to complete its buildout in 2022.

This service is offered through the Chattanooga Electric Power Board (EPB), the region’s municipally-owned electric utility. Groundwork for the broadband service began in the late 1990s when EPB began investing fiber optics. First in April 1996, EPB began using fiber optic cables to construct an “advanced intelligent distribution system” for the electric grid. And in 1999, EPB received approval to enter the telecommunication business. At this time, they began to assemble a staff and technical components to develop a fiber-optics-based network that would provide high-speed data, local business telephone and other telecommunications services. Telecommunications service for local businesses began in 2000. The public approval process was completed in July 2002, allowing EPB to provide internet services, and in 2003 the utility began offering all-fiber high-speed internet service to business customers at speeds up to 300 times faster than other local providers were able to offer at the time. 76 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 In August 2007, EPB’s Board of Directors announced approval of a Fiber to the Home initiative. This initiative was designed to generate new jobs, improve services to electric customers, and provide high-speed internet service to every customer in its service area. Following this announcement (and one week prior to the vote going to the Chattanooga City Council), the state’s cable industry group, Tennessee Cable Telecommunications Association (TCTA) and Comcast, began filing court claims in an attempt to stop the network construction. Even with these lawsuits, EPB began developing its financing plan for the network, and the Chattanooga City Council unanimously approved this plan the following month. The original financing plans called for two bonds to be issued, and up to another $60 million contribution from EPB’s Electric division to finance the Fiber Optics division startup costs. The table below provides a breakdown of these costs: Capital Requirements Amount Network construction $162M Electrical equipment such as transformers $39M Interest payments (first three years) $26M Financing charges Remainder The bonds were issued in 2008 despite ongoing court cases. By this time, EPB was working toward two goals with the bonds: 1) Build a smart grid for the electric system, and 2) use that robust system offer a residential “triple play” service which would offer voice, TV services, and high- speed internet. At the time that the bonds were issued, EPB planned to move forward with the smart grid regardless of whether EPB began providing triple-play services. In April 2007, the court dismissed the TCTA lawsuit against the municipal utility. This dismissal was followed by another lawsuit filed by Comcast in a different court but using the same basic logic as the TCTA case. This case was thrown out in July 2008. In September 2009, Chattanooga announced that it was officially starting to offer its triple-play services, which would be available to approximately 17,000 households at the launch. In October an additional 10,000 households were able to subscribe. Shortly after, EPB received a $111 million grant from the Department of Energy. This helped the rollout to happen much faster than originally anticipated and the utility completed its scheduled 10-year deployment plan in less than three years. 77 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 As of October 2018, EPB Fiber Optics exceeded 100,000 residential and business customers across its 9,000-mile fiber optics network. The company claims the following benefits of having a municipally owned and operated fiber optics network and smart grid 4: • Power Outage Reduction: The Smart Grid has reduced the incidence and duration of power outages by more than 285 million customer minutes. This is the result of reducing the incidence and duration of power outages by more than 50%. For a market the size of EPB’s service area, this is equivalent to saving customers more than $50 million per year by helping them avoid lost productivity, spoiled food, and other negative impacts. • Keeping electric rates lower: Each year, EPB Fiber Optics pays EPB Electric tens of millions of dollars for the use of the electric system’s fiber optics network and shared costs. These payments keep electric rates significantly lower for every EPB Electric customer whether they subscribe to fiber optics services or not. • Providing Millions of dollars for Local Schools and Local Government Services: EPB is by far the largest contributor to local schools and local government services with annual payments that have more than doubled since deploying the smart grid. EPB’s annual payments to Hamilton County, the City of Chattanooga, and other local governments now total $20.9 million annually. Since deploying the fiber optics network, EPB has paid more than $172 million for local schools and government services. • Serving as a catalyst for Job Creation: Prior to the deployment of Chattanooga’s fiber optics network, the community was not considered a hotspot for start-up activity. Since then, Chattanooga’s Gig Network along with successful efforts to attract investment for start-ups and entrepreneurial support from organizations like The Enterprise Center, Co.Lab, and the Hamilton County Business INCubator have combined to create a blossoming entrepreneurial environment where dozens of new start-ups are rapidly creating new jobs. The company offers a variety of speed and pricing plans to residential customers. In February 2019, EPB upgraded its 100Mbps plan to 300Mbps at no cost to their customer. The table below shows current costs for internet service only. Prices may vary when bundled with either voice or TV service.

When the State of California deregulated electricity in the mid-1990’s, Alameda Municipal Power began looking into the telecommunications access in order to diversify their products. The municipal utility proposed expanding into cable and internet access and established its telecommunications division in 1998. The original estimate for construction costs to lay fiber-optic cable and build the system was $25 million, but ended up costing nearly three-times that amount when the construction was completed.5 As construction and operating costs continued to rise beyond the original projects, the Alameda City Council continued to borrow money and refinance existing debt. By December 2003, there was roughly a total of $40 million in bond indebtedness involved with the telecom operation.6 Additionally, the electric division transferred a total of $43 million to support the division. The telecom division was originally anticipated to bring in revenue by 2007, however it was continuing to operate in deficit at that time. The City hired a consultant to evaluate the operation, and it was estimated that it would be an addition seven years before that happened. It was at this time that the system faced increased competition from Comcast, and in June 2008 Alameda Power concluded that there was no alternative to selling the system which Comcast purchased in November 2008 for $15 million.7 At the time of the sale, the telecom service had approximately 15,000 subscribers. Burlington, VT (Population 42,239, 15.48 sq. miles)8 Burlington Telecom (BT) is another tale about the potential pitfalls of a municipality entering the telecom (fiber) industry. Dissatisfied with poor customer relations and products of the private providers in the community, the Burlington Electric Department (a municipally owned company) 5SFGate: Alameda ready to pull out of telecom business (March 2008) https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Alameda-ready-to-pull-out-of-telecom-business-3290322.php 6 East Bay Express: Alameda’s Utility in a World of Hurt (November 2006) https://www.eastbayexpress.com/oakland/alamedas-utility-in-a-world-of-hurt/Content?oid=1082187 7 Metnews.com: City Held Not Liable to Investors in its Failed Telecom Venture (September 2013) http://www.metnews.com/articles/2013/alameda092013.htm 8 This information is summarized from Learning from Burlington Telecom: Some Lessons for Community Networks. Christopher Mitchell, August 2011. https://muninetworks.org/sites/www.muninetworks.org/files/bt-lessons- learned.pdf 79 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 entered into a public-private partnership that was ended in 2001 because the private partner did not fulfill their obligations. The City then contracted with a consultant to build BT, and create a city-owned fiber-to-the-home network. By mid-2003, BT had replaced the leased broadband and voice lines for the schools and city departments with city-owned fiber lines in order to decreasethe City’s telecom expenses. This network was financed with a municipal capital lease for $2.6 million. Following that, the City began expanding its network to residents and businesses in 2005 by financing another $20 million to fund the infrastructure. In August of 2007, the City borrowed another $33.5 million to continue expanding the infrastructure and to pay off previous debts. At this time, BT was also looking into expanding regionally beyond City Limits to provide the service. In September, 2007, BT announced that the company was “operationally cash flow positive” meaning that the revenues were more than the operational expenses, however the revenues were still not enough to cover debt service or capital costs. During this period, BT was adding 40 to 50 subscribers per week on average. That subscriber rate declined after the summer 2008. This is when the City investigated financing another round of debt, which would bring the total amount of debt to $45 million, an amount considerably more than what the original estimates were for the network costs. Before a deal on this was finalized, the economy began to have trouble and capital markets froze. BT continued to pay for the expansion using cash on hand which violated terms of the financing and also caused financial problems. In October 2009, BT’s problems became public. In addition to the financed debt, the City had an additional $17 million in debt from the City’s cash pool. The total of these two totaled over $50 million in debt. After other financing schemes failed, BT ceased making payments to the banks in early 2010. When Burlington failed to appropriate funds for the lease in FY 2011, the lease terminated. This was followed by a number of lawsuits from lenders attempting to recover their expenses. A full detailed report of the Burlington Telecom situation can be found here. DISCUSSION The motivations for implementing a municipal fiber or broadband utility vary from city to city, though the following broad goals are most common: 1. Provide services where large service gaps currently exist; 2. Increase responsiveness and reliability in broadband operations; 3. Provide for relatively low and stable monthly rates; and 4. Increase economic development competitiveness. In staff’s research it became clear that most cities take widely divergent paths, based on the unique factors to those municipalities, to implement a municipal broadband utility and achieve their goals. Staff met with Uptown Services, LLC, a telecommunications consultant that assisted the City of Fort Collins, CO with the staging and implementation of its broadband utility, how the process of creating a municipal broadband utility. 80 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 Prior to moving far forward with the funding and implementation of a utility, most cities performed a feasibility study as a first step in the process. The study will assist the City in understanding the unique factors of the community and determining whether a municipally owned broadband utility is economically feasible. Feasibility Study If direction is given to City of Denton Staff to seriously explore the creation of a broadband utility, staff would likely seek to engage a consultant to assist with an initial feasibility study. The feasibility study would describe and evaluate the logistical and economic viability of the broadband utility by engaging in the following activities: Demand Assessment: Includes economic and market research analysis to determine whether there is sufficient demand and likely customer base for a municipal utility. This is critical in circumstances where the city would not be the sole provider of the service. Legal Considerations The legal landscape relating to the ability of a public entity providing a broadband service is not fully established in the State of Texas and this portion of the study would point to any future legal concerns or points of liability. Capital Cost Assessment The study would provide a preliminary estimate as to the initial capital cost of implementing a broadband utility. Cities with a municipal electric utility may be able to realize efficiencies by using existing electric infrastructure to help convey broadband cables or fiber (unless bond covenants restrict non-electric infrastructure). Design Concept This portion of the study would provide a preliminary system design that would be used as a basis for future financial forecasts and business planning efforts. The feasibility study is designed to answer whether a municipal utility can be successful; both in achieving the goals of the city and as a self-supporting enterprise. The feasibility study process has a duration of approximately four months at a cost of $50,000 to $80,000. Secondary Studies and Subsequent Steps Should direction be given to continue planning, staff would again engage one or more consultants to assist with more detailed planning, including revenue forecasting, a technology strategy, a staffing plan, and a comprehensive business strategy that is designed to provide a pathway to the deployment and operation of the utility. After the conclusion of the detailed planning phase, there should be sufficient information available to seek financing to fund the initial deployment of the capital assets associated with the utility and to fund the initial operations. Since the broadband utility is an enterprise, the city would 81 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-085 have the option to issue revenue bonds that are paid with the future earnings of the utility. General obligation bonds are also an option. The financing phase may last from 6 to 12 months. Subsequent phases include the implementation of the utility including constructing the infrastructure components, hiring staff, and laying the groundwork for the day to day operations. The implementation phase would likely last for 18 months once financing is secured. Once the infrastructure and operational components are in place, the utility will begin making connections to private properties and initiate full-fledged operations. The entire process from initial feasibility study to the start of operations has a duration of roughly 2.5 to 3 years. Other Implementation Factors It is important to note that in comparison cities, Universities have played a partnership role in this process, primarily through joint funding. The motivation on the part of universities is to utilize the increased internet speed and capacity that a municipal broadband utility can provide to enhance interest from prospective students, researchers, and sources of grant funding. Additionally, as an electric utility provider, the City of Denton has existing fiber infrastructure that connects various facilities across the city. This fiber could be utilized as the foundation of a broadband network and reduce the amount of new fiber line that must be deployed to connect customers to the system. It should be noted that the technical specifications and capacities of our current fiber lines would need to be evaluated in the feasibility study to determine how these existing lines could be incorporated into a broadband network, if at all. Initial Legal Considerations Under state statute, cities are unable to serve as a “telecommunications service provider”. While Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has modified its definition of a telecommunications service multiple times, it currently does not classify a broadband-only service as a telecommunications service. While creating a municipal broadband utility is legal in Texas, the fact that the FCC has changed the definition for broadband twice within a few years raises concerns about possible additional changes, particularly since the FCC definition of telecommunications will supersede any state or local definition. Additionally, there will continue to exist a possibility that the State of Texas would adopt a statute restricting or eliminating the ability of a home rule municipality, such as Denton, from creating a broadband utility.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: During the April 16 Council public hearing for the Windsor Drive Apartments specific use permit (S18-0008i) the monitoring results for particulate matter 10 microns and 2.5 microns (PM10 and PM2.5) for gas wells Payne #1 and #2 obtained on July 20, 2018 were brought up by Mr. Ed Soph as evidence of PM emissions generated by the nearby gas wells that, in his opinion, would affect future residents of the proposed development. City staff have researched the PM monitoring history upwind and downwind for those two wells as well as the regional conditions for PM in the air during July 2018. The memo from Modern Geoscience explaining the monitoring results and the context in which those results should be interpreted that was emailed to the Council last Monday contained a typo on the graphic displayed on page 2. A corrected memo is attached. BACKGROUND: Denton gas well monitoring program is designed with the goal of obtaining accurate, representative, and defensible monitoring data of the gas wells activity in the city, and it gives monitoring priority to those well sites closer to protected (or sensitive) land uses. “High” priority wells are those that are less than 300 feet from sensitive uses, “Moderate” priority sites are those that are greater than 300 to 1000 feet, and “Low” priority are those that are greater than 1,000 feet. Well sites Payne #1 and #2 are classified as High priority and are monitored twice every year by Modern Geoscience contractor and twice by the city gas well inspector. Air quality parameters are measured at the fenceline boundary of the well sites, upwind (ambient air coming into the well site) and downwind (ambient air leaving the site) with the idea that differences between the monitoring readings would indicate potential pollutant contributions by the well sites. Standard monitoring and sampling protocols supported by TCEQ, EPA, and the gas well industry are used. The attached memo from Modern Geoscience provides some general information of what PM is and how is measured, the monitoring history of well sites Payne #1 and #2, the most recent results for the April 2019 inspections, and clarifications for Mr. Soph statements. Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. CONCLUSION: This IRS has been provided for informational purposes. ATTACHMENT(S): April 18, 2019 Modern Geoscience Memorandum 84 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-086 STAFF CONTACT: Deborah Viera Assistant Director of Environmental Services 940.349.7162 Deborah.Viera@cityofdenton.com 85 PROJECT 19003 | APRIL 18, 2019 | PAGE 1 WWW.MODERNGEOSCIENCES.COM DATE April 18, 2019 PROJECT 19003 ATTN Ms. Deborah Viera, AICP, CFM Assistant Director Environmental Services City of Denton 901A Texas Street Denton, Texas SUBJECT Technical Memorandum – Clarification Concerning Particulate Matter Data Padsite Nos. 13 and 14 (Payne 1 and 2 Padsites) Denton, Denton County, Texas Dear Ms. Viera: Modern Geosciences, LLC (Modern) is pleased to provide this Technical Memorandum to the City of Denton (City) providing responses to concerns expressed during the April 16, 2019 City Council meeting and consideration of a Specific Use Permit (SUP) for a mixed-use development near the above-referenced padsites. Since the concerns centered on a discussion of particulate matter, Modern has included a brief discussion of particulate matter prior to providing responses to the specific concerns raised. BACKGROUND ON PARTICULATE MATTER Particulate Matter (PM) can come in many sizes and shapes and can be made up of hundreds of different chemicals/minerals. Some are emitted directly from a source, such as construction sites, unpaved roads, fields, smokestacks or fires; however, most particles form in the atmosphere as a result of complex reactions of chemicals such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which are common pollutants emitted from power plants, industrial businesses and automobiles. PM will contain microscopic solids and/or liquid droplets that are so small that they can be inhaled and potentially cause health problems. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), particles less than 10 micrometers (microns) in diameter (PM10) pose the greatest risk. Fine particles smaller than 2.5 microns (PM2.5) are of particular concern as this fraction can travel far distances and remain in the air for days or weeks and are more readily absorbed into the body. Additionally, PM2.5 is the most common cause of reduced visibility (haze) in urban areas. A size comparison of PM particles is provided below. 86 PROJECT 19003 | APRIL 18, 2019 | PAGE 2 WWW.MODERNGEOSCIENCES.COM Particulate Matter Size Reference (EPA 2014) RESPONSE TO COMMENTS The discussion of concerns during the recent council meeting included the use of data collected by Modern as part of our ongoing padsite inspection program in support of the City. Specific comments noted in the meeting by a resident and direct responses to each are included below for informational and clarification purposes. Comment No. 1: The resident presented to council a “total” Particulate Matter (PM) result of 157 µg/m3 using data from two of Modern’s July 2018 Padsite Inspection reports for Padsite Nos. 13 and 14 (Payne Nos. 1 and 2). Response: This approach is incorrect in two different ways. The first is that adding two readings from two different sites would be equivalent to taking the temperature at two different properties and adding them. For example, it may be 80°F at my home and 88°F at my office, but the combined temperatures of 168°F does not represent an expected temperature at either location. The second misunderstanding is that PM10 can be added to PM2.5. In this case, PM10 is by definition already inclusive of PM2.5 since this measurement is a summation of ALL particulate 10 microns or less. 87 PROJECT 19003 | APRIL 18, 2019 | PAGE 3 WWW.MODERNGEOSCIENCES.COM Comment No. 2: The resident presented to council a World Health Organization (WHO) 24-Hour Mean comparison for PM2.5 and PM10 of 25 µg/m3 and 50 µg/m3. Response: While the initial screening employed by Modern during our inspections is the observation of any significant increase above an expected background level or upwind sample, there is a National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for PM2.5 (35 µg/m3) and PM10 (150 µg/m3) established by the EPA utilized for our reporting effort. These criteria are presented in our reports with a description of how the NAAQS is applied and how Modern utilizes PM as an indicator for other potential concerns. As our data represents a short 10 to 20-minute snapshot in time, it is important to also note that much more extensive monitoring is required to directly compare against a 24-hour mean. This is also further described in Modern’s reports. While the resident is correct to note the individual PM2.5 and PM10 results observed were slightly elevated from typical ambient levels during the July 2018 monitoring, to attach the generation of the PM to the padsites in question is not supported by the data since the background levels across the entire region were elevated (discussion below) and the upwind and downwind monitoring (discussion below) performed by Modern are nearly identical. Comment No. 3 The resident continued, noting “these are only two wells out of the 315 located within the city limits. What are the cumulative effects of the particulate matter emissions of all those other wells on our air and on our health? How will the particulate matter from Payne Well No. 1 and 2 affect the health of the residents living in the proposed apartments?” Response: Modern agrees with the resident’s concern for how PM can affect the health of our community. To the resident’s point, this is why this parameter is one of many we evaluate during our padsite inspections. However, in this case, we need to dive a little deeper into the data to understand why the PM results in question are background in nature and not related to padsite operations at the time of our inspection. Evaluating Upwind and Downwind: As part of the City’s inspection program, Modern always includes an evaluation of both upwind (conditions coming to a site) and downwind (conditions leaving a site) to aid our understanding of potential contribution from a given padsite. Below are the up and downwind summaries for both padsites from the event referenced. PADSITE NO. 13 (PAYNE NO. 2): FROM MODERN’S JULY 2018 PADSITE INSPECTION REPORT Fenceline Screening Criteria: Yes No N/A Upwind Observations: Downwind Observations: PID > 100 ppbv (0.1 ppmv)? <1 ppbv <1 ppbv Radiation > 20 µR/hr? <15 µR/hr <15 µR/hr H2S > 80 ppbv (0.08 ppmv)? <5 ppbv <5 ppbv Methane > 500 ppmv? <5 ppmv <5 ppmv PM2.5 > 35 µg/m3? 23.27 µg/m3 22.81 µg/m3 PM10 > 150 µg/m3? 63.61 µg/m3 64.45 µg/m3 88 PROJECT 19003 | APRIL 18, 2019 | PAGE 4 WWW.MODERNGEOSCIENCES.COM The differences between upwind and downwind conditions for PM2.5 and PM10 are -2% and 1.3%, respectively and not suggestive of significant contribution from the padsite during the time of our inspection. PADSITE NO. 14 (PAYNE NO. 1): FROM MODERN’S JULY 2018 PADSITE INSPECTION REPORT Fenceline Screening Criteria: Yes No N/A Upwind Observations: Downwind Observations: PID > 100 ppbv (0.1 ppmv)? <1 ppbv <1 ppbv Radiation > 20 µR/hr? <15 µR/hr <15 µR/hr H2S > 80 ppbv (0.08 ppmv)? <5 ppbv <5 ppbv Methane > 500 ppmv? <5 ppmv <5 ppmv PM2.5 > 35 µg/m3? 21.17 µg/m3 21.56 µg/m3 PM10 > 150 µg/m3? 47.47 µg/m3 47.77 µg/m3 The differences between upwind and downwind conditions for PM2.5 and PM10 are 1.8% and 0.6%, respectively and not suggestive of significant contribution from the padsite during the time of our inspection. Understanding Background Conditions: Anytime you are evaluating air quality data, it is important to understand the ambient conditions expected for a given area. In this case, there is a regional reference that can be utilized in the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Continuous Ambient Monitoring Station (CAMS) No. 56, located at the Denton Airport approximately two (2) miles southwest of the padsites in question. While CAMS No. 56 does not collect PM10 data, it does collect hourly PM2.5 data. During the month of July in 2018, PM2.5 ranged up to an hourly average of 39.1 µg/m3. Unfortunately, the TCEQ’s data set does not include July 20th specifically, but a look at the available data sets confirm this part of the year encountered several days where elevated PM appears to have been occurring due to conditions unrelated to the padsite. An additional reference that could be utilized is CAMS No. 60 at Dallas/Hinton which is roughly 34 miles southeast of the padsites in question and also collects hourly PM2.5 data. It should be noted this CAMS is within a city that does not have oil or gas wells. CAM S No. 60 encountered a maximum PM2.5 of 50.4 µg/m3 in July 2018 and on July 20, 2018 had a maximum of 34.4 µg/m3 and 24-hour average of 18.5 µg/m3. Based on the available background data, the observed PM data appears consistent with a regional range of values seen across Denton and Dallas in July 2018. Continued Inspection: As noted within our padsite inspection reports, we understand our data represents only the period of time we are given access to the padsites. However, Denton has incorporated different inspection requirements within its program based on the padsite’s proximity to sensitive receptors like the nearby residential area. In this case, Modern’s inspection of Padsite No. 14 (Payne No. 1) in 2017 led to its priority being elevated from Moderate to High which brings with it additional fenceline monitoring parameters and a higher frequency of inspection (twice annually). One way to address the concerns raised by the resident is to continue a risk-based 89 PROJECT 19003 | APRIL 18, 2019 | PAGE 5 WWW.MODERNGEOSCIENCES.COM inspection program that ensures the City receives the necessary data needed to make informed decisions. As a result, on the continued inspection program, Modern can add some additional information concerning PM monitoring results at these padsites from other events. Below are the fenceline data from Modern’s first 2018 inspection event and from our forthcoming April 2019 reports for reference.

Modern did observ e elevated ambient PM levels during the July 2018 event, but this was demonstrated to be associated with a regional event and not padsite operations. However, it is important to note that leaks from separators and aboveground storage tanks were identified by Modern during our inspection efforts. Following communication of these action items, each was reportedly addressed by the operator. It is Modern’s opinion that the optimum approach to minimizing the potential that an oil or gas padsite impact a neighboring property is to have a comprehensive inspection program that effectively identifies leaking equipment and/or fenceline concerns early and communicates these to an operator in a manner that results in corrective action. Better data leads to better decisions. CLOSING We appreciate the opportunity to assist the City in a discussion of air quality.

Based on the research conducted at that time, the only cities in the State of Texas that offered paid parental leave (beyond what is required under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)) were Austin, Lake Jackson, and San Antonio. At that time no DFW metroplex cities offered paid parental leave. On April 6, 2019, Councilmember Armintor sent an email to the City Manager requesting a work session on paid parental leave for City of Denton employees. This request was in response to an article about the City of DeSoto’s Council passing a parental leave policy which will be effective October 1, 2019. Below is an update of the report that was sent to the Council on September 22, 2017. BACKGROUND: Currently the City of Denton does not offer paid parental leave beyond the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Under the FMLA, we must offer any employee who has been with the City at least 12 months, and who has worked 1,250 hours in the 12 month period prior to the start of the leave, 12 weeks of protected (assured continued employment), unpaid leave for the following reasons: • for incapacity due to pregnancy, prenatal medical care or child birth; • to care for the employee’s child after birth, or placement for adoption or foster care; • to care for the employee’s spouse, son, daughter or parent, who has a serious health condition; or • for a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the employee’s job. We run our leave policies concurrent with FMLA, so employees can be paid during this 12-week period as long as they have the time accrued. The City of Denton’s leave benefit accruals are outlined in the chart below: Employee Group Sick Vacation Accrual Maximum Accrual Accrual^ Maximum Carry-Over Regular Full-Time, Non-Civil Service Employees 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 720 hours 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 320 hours on anniversary date 92 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-087 Page 2 of 5 * Fire Civil Service Employees Working Less Than 12-hour Shifts and Police Civil Service Employees 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) No maximum accrual 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 320 hours on anniversary date *Fire Civil Service Employees Working 12-Hour Shifts 15 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) No maximum accrual 15 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 480 hours on anniversary date * Police and Fire civil service employees’ accruals are in accordance with Chapter 143 of the Texas Local Government Code. ^This is the basic monthly accrual rate for full-time employees. Full-time employees also receive four hours of “bonus” vacation time beginning on their 5th anniversary date and an additional four hours for every year of continuous service thereafter (4 hours on 5th anniversary, 8 hours on 6th anniversary, 12 hours on 7th anniversary, etc.) DISCUSSION: The 25 cities listed below were surveyed on paid parental leave benefits: Allen – No Arlington - No Austin - Yes Beaumont# Bryan - No Carrollton - No Dallas – No DeSoto - Yes Fort Worth - No Frisco - No Garland - No Grand Prairie – No Grapevine – No Highland Village - No Irving# Lake Jackson - Yes Lewisville – No Little Elm - No McKinney - No Mesquite - No Plano – No Prosper# Richardson – No San Antonio – Yes The Colony - No # indicates those Cities that did not respond to our survey 93 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-087 Page 3 of 5 The chart below summarizes and compares the provisions of the paid parental leave programs of the four (4) cities that offer the benefit.

The chart shows the cost based on a three (3) week and six (6) week leave duration model, and the Lake Jackson model. The chart also shows the cost for all employees as well as with civil service employees excluded (Austin & San Antonio models). This information is based on the number of employees who added a baby to the health insurance plan and who were eligible for FMLA at the time. # of Employees 3 Week Model 6 Week Model Lake Jackson All Employees 43 $157,289 $314,579 $172,557 Without Civil Service 26 $85,889 $171,779 $108,816 *Based on salary at the time the employee enrolled the baby on the health insurance plan. Cost is inclusive of base salary only. This cost is over and above any costs associated with sick and vacation leave. FY 18/19 Year-To-Date Impact: The chart below shows the number of employees, and the potential cost, had the City offered paid parental leave thus far during FY 18/19. As above, the chart shows the cost based on a three (3) week and six (6) week leave duration model, and the Lake Jackson model. The chart also shows the cost for all employees as well as with civil service employees excluded (Austin & San Antonio models). This information is based on the number of employees who added a baby to the health insurance plan and who were eligible for FMLA at the time. # of Employees 3 Week Model 6 Week Model Lake Jackson All Employees 19 $71,259 $142,519 $83,678 Without Civil Service 12 $40,144 $80,287 $52,562 *Based on salary at the time the employee enrolled the baby on the health insurance plan. Cost is inclusive of base salary only. This cost is over and above any costs associated with sick and vacation leave. While it is difficult to predict how many employees will use leave for a birth or adoption during any given year, based on the cost estimates that have been provided in the various informal staff reports, the City’s average cost to provide paid parental leave would be approximately $284,280, based on a six (6) week leave duration, and half that ($142,140) based on a three (3) week leave duration. NEXT STEPS If the Council wishes to move forward with adopting paid parental leave, staff can begin working on a policy for Council consideration and approval. 95 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-087 Page 5 of 5 STAFF CONTACT: Carla Romine, Director of Human Resources (940) 348-8344 carla.romine@cityofdenton.com 96 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 1 of 7 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Paid Parental Leave EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In response to a request by Council on October 20, 2015, an Informal Staff Report was provided on December 4, 2015 which summarized the research that the Human Resources staff conducted on paid parental leave. Based on the research conducted at that time, there did not appear to be any other City in the State of Texas that offered paid parental leave (beyond what is required under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)) other than the City of Austin. A summary of Austin’s parental leave benefit is outlined on page 3. At the August 22, 2017, Council meeting, members of the City Council again requested information on parental leave. As such, Human Resources staff did some additional research and followed up with cities previously surveyed to see if they made any changes to their leave benefits that would govern parental leave. Below is an update of the report that was sent to the Council on December 4, 2015. BACKGROUND: At the October 20, 2015, City Council meeting, a citizen report was given by Naomi Wood regarding paid parental leave for City of Denton employees—and her recommendation to extend benefits beyond the FMLA. Council directed staff to do some research as to what other cities in Texas, especially those in the DFW metroplex, were doing regarding parental leave. Under the FMLA, we must offer any employee who has been with the City at least 12 months and who has worked 1,250 hours in the 12 month period, 12 weeks of protected (assured continued employment), unpaid leave for the following reasons: • for incapacity due to pregnancy, prenatal medical care or child birth; • to care for the employee’s child after birth, or placement for adoption or foster care; • to care for the employee’s spouse, son, daughter or parent, who has a serious health condition; or • for a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the employee’s job. We run our leave policies concurrent with FMLA, so employees can be paid during this 12 week period as long as they have the time accrued. The City of Denton’s leave benefit accruals are outlined in the chart on page 2. These accruals reflect the change to the non-civil service sick benefit that was adopted by Council at the 97 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 2 of 7 September 12, 2017, City Council meeting (increasing the monthly sick leave accrual for non-civil service employees from 8 hours per month to 10 hours per month). Employee Group Sick Vacation Accrual Maximum Accrual Accrual^ Maximum Carry-Over Regular Full-Time, Non-Civil Service Employees 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 720 hours 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 320 hours on anniversary date *Police Civil Service Employees and Fire Civil Service Employees Working Less Than 12-hour Shifts 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) No maximum accrual 10 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 320 hours on anniversary date *Fire Civil Service Employees Working 12-Hour Shifts 15 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) No maximum accrual 15 hours/month (equates to 15 days/year) 480 hours on anniversary date * Police and Fire civil service employees accruals are in accordance with Chapter 143 of the Texas Local Government Code. ^This is the basic monthly accrual rate for full-time employees. Full-time employees also receive four hours of “bonus” vacation time beginning on their 5th anniversary date and an additional four hours for every year of continuous service thereafter (4 hours on 5th anniversary, 8 hours on 6th anniversary, 12 hours on 7th anniversary, etc.) DISCUSSION: On October 29, 2015, the seventeen cities below were surveyed on paid parental leave benefits. The cities were re-surveyed on August 31, 2017. Allen Arlington Austin Beaumont# Bryan Carrollton Dallas^ Fort Worth^ Frisco Garland^ Grand Prairie Irving^# Lewisville^ McKinney Mesquite# Plano^# Richardson ^ indicates those Cities that did not respond to our survey in 2015 # indicates those Cities that did not respond to our survey in 2017 98 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 3 of 7 2015 Results Fourteen of the Cities surveyed were part of our standard metroplex survey group. Through our contact with McGriff, Seibels & Williams, the City’s benefits consultants, staff was able to reach out to the Cities of Bryan, Beaumont, and Austin as well. Staff received eleven responses to the survey. Of those eleven, the only City to offer paid parental leave benefits, beyond FMLA, was Austin. Staff went on-line to review the benefits of the Cities that did not respond and could not find anything specific to paid parental leave. On November 3, 2015, Tiffani James, the City of Denton’s Benefits and Leave Coordinator, contacted the Leave Administrator for the City of Austin. The Leave Administrator stated that the Program was requested by two aides who worked for City Council. When asked which Cities they modeled their policy after, she stated she did not know of any other cities in the state of Texas that offered paid parental leave. She knew that the Cities of Chicago and San Francisco offered paid parental leave, but she stated that Austin’s policy was more generous. The following is additional information on their policy: City of Austin – Parental Leave Policy The Program started on September 22, 2013. The Program provides a maximum of 240 hours (separate from sick and vacation hours) for employees in a 40-hour budgeted position to use for the birth of a child or the placement of a child for adoption or foster care; leave is awarded proportionate to the employee’s budgeted workweek (i.e., 30 – 39 budgeted hours = 180 hours; 20 – 29 budgeted hours = 120 hours; less than 20 budgeted hours = 60 hours). The employee must be eligible for FMLA to qualify for the paid parental leave. Temporary employees and employees whose employment is negotiated through a collective bargaining agreement, or a meet and confer agreement, are not eligible for Parental Leave. The leave must be taken within the FMLA period associated with the date of the birth or placement of a child for adoption or foster care. Employees are not required to exhaust their accrued leave to participate in the program. If both eligible parents work for the City, both receive the proportionate amount of aid Parental Leave (reference second bullet above). Since inception, over 500 employees (out of 12,000) have used the Program at an approximate cost of $2 million. The Leave Administrator from Austin forwarded the policies from the Cities of Chicago and San Francisco that were given to her. The following is information on both Chicago’s and San Francisco’s policies: City of Chicago – Paid Parental Leave Policy The Program started on November 1, 2011. The employee must be eligible for FMLA to be eligible for the leave. The birth mother may receive up to four weeks for a non-surgical delivery; or six weeks for a C-Section delivery. 99 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 4 of 7 The birth father, or domestic partner, may receive up to two weeks for the birth of the child. The employee may receive up to two weeks paid leave for the adoption of a child. City of San Francisco – Paid Parental Leave Policy The Program started on November 5, 2002. The leave applies to permanent, provisional and exempt employees who (a) normally work at least twenty hours per week and (b) have completed six months of continuous service; any other City employee (a) who has worked at least 1040 hours in the twelve months prior to leave and (b) whose average work week is at least twenty hours. Provides compensation to supplement state disability insurance payments, paid sick leave and vacation, so the employee will receive the equivalent of his or her full salary for up to twelve weeks. The employee must exhaust their accrued paid leave before receiving any supplemental compensation. The supplement compensation shall be provided for no more than twelve weeks for employees on approved FMLA or sixteen weeks for employees on Temporary Pregnancy Disability Leave. Staff also did a Google search for “Paid Parental Leave in Texas.” Many references to the Texas laws governing maternity leave came up. Additionally, references to the University of Texas at Austin policy came up. Their policy offers up to 12 weeks of unpaid parental leave, for employees who are not eligible for Family and Medical Leave. According to their policy, though, employees must use all accrued and available paid leave while taking parental leave. There were also references to similar policies at Texas A&M University, Texas Tech University, and Texas Woman’s University. There have been numerous attempts to enact paid parental leave for federal employees. In 2015, S. 2033 was introduced offering 6 weeks of paid leave to federal employees who are experiencing birth, adoption or foster placement of a child. H.R. 532 was also introduced providing that 6 of the 12 weeks of parental leave made available to a Federal employee (under federal law) shall be paid leave. These bills did not pass. 2017 Results Staff received thirteen responses when re-surveying the Cities. There were no changes to the 2015 survey results; however, staff has found through researching the Internet that, in addition to the City of Austin, the City of San Antonio and the City of Lake Jackson, Texas offer paid parental leave. Specifically, the City of San Antonio offers up to six weeks of paid parental leave to full- time employees (birthing and non-birthing parents), within twelve months after the birth of placement of a new child in connection with adoption or foster. Their paid parental leave runs concurrently with FMLA leave. The City of Lake Jackson, which is a smaller municipality within the Houston-Sugar Land metropolitan area, offers up to six weeks for mothers and three weeks for all other employees who qualify for parental leave. Their paid parental leave also runs concurrently with FMLA leave. 100 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 5 of 7 There has continued to be a push for paid parental leave at the federal level. A July 22, 2017, article that was published on the USA Today website1 reported: “In its 2018 budget, the Trump administration included a national paid leave plan for parents after the birth or adoption of a child. Proposed are six weeks of paid leave for mothers and fathers at an estimated annual cost of $25 billion, funded by restructuring the federal unemployment insurance system… Congressional Democrats, meanwhile, have reintroduced the Family and Medical Insurance Leave, or FAMILY, Act, which they first submitted in 2013. It would permit all workers to take up to 60 individual days of paid leave per year to care for a new child, a sick family member or one’s own illness. Workers would receive up to 66% of their regular wages to a maximum $1,000 per week. The program, initially introduced in 2013, would be funded by a 0.4% payroll tax on workers’ wages, split evenly between employers and employees… Republican lawmakers have countered this year with the Strong Families Act. That bill would give employers offering at least two weeks of paid family or medical leave a 25% tax credit for wages paid to workers taking up to 12 weeks of leave. The credit would be capped at $3,000 per employee per year. The credit would cease entirely two years after enactment.” On February13, 2017, H.R.1022 and S. 362 (Federal Employees Paid Parental Leave Act of 2017) were introduced into Congress. As with the bills in 2015, they allow for up to six weeks of paid leave after the birth, adoption or fostering a new child. Federal employees can currently take up to twelve weeks of unpaid family or medical leave in those situations. POTENTIAL IMPACT FOR A PAID PARENTAL LEAVE PROGRAM: 2015 Impact If the City of Denton offered paid parental leave and modeled it after the City of Austin (up to 6 weeks pay), the approximate number of employees who could have benefitted from the program, as well as the estimated cost for 2014 and 2015, are outlined below. This information is based on the number of employees who added a baby to the health insurance plan and who were eligible for FMLA at the time. 2014 2015 (as of November 11, 2015) Number of Employees (includes Police and Fire Civil Service) Approximate Cost* Number of Employees (includes Police and Fire Civil Service) Approximate Cost* 39 $236,487.23 35 $230,032.02 *Based on salary at the time the employee enrolled the baby on the health insurance plan. Cost is inclusive of base salary only. This cost is over and above any costs associated with sick and vacation leave. It is difficult to determine how many of the employees referenced in the chart above would have been subject to unpaid leave without doing a considerable amount of research. However, the 101 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 6 of 7 Benefits and Leave Coordinator routinely has discussions with employees going out on leave, and they frequently tell her how long they plan on taking off work based on their accrued leave balances. Based on the discussions she remembers, five employees would have been unpaid had they taken six continuous weeks off in 2014 as well as five employees in 2015. It should be noted, however, that according to information found on-line and through discussions with the Leave Administrator for the City of Austin, this program has cost Austin much more than they originally anticipated. In fact, an article on the BenefitsPro website2 stated “…the city had budgeted for 60 of its employees to use the new benefit the first year, once it became available last October. Instead, in just the first seven months since it became available, 162 parents took the paid leave offer. The bill: $691,000 — about twice what the city had planned to spend for the first 12 months...” 2017 Impact Using the same criteria from 2015, the number of employees who could have benefitted from a paid parental leave program and the cost associated with such a program for 2016 and 2017, are outlined below. 2016 2017 (as of September 8, 2017) Number of Employees (includes Police and Fire Civil Service) Approximate Cost* Number of Employees (includes Police and Fire Civil Service) Approximate Cost* 44 $301,775.76 30 $194,967.84 *Based on salary at the time the employee enrolled the baby on the health insurance plan. Cost is inclusive of base salary only. This cost is over and above any costs associated with sick and vacation leave. As far as employees who would have had to use more than their accrued time and, therefore, subject to unpaid time, the Benefits and Leave Coordinator recalls four employees in 2016 and eight employees in 2017. Councilmember Gregory was interested in knowing the potential cost for a benefit consisting of anywhere from two to eight weeks of full pay, ¾ pay, and ½ pay. The cost above assumes six weeks at full pay, which is consistent with Austin’s benefit. If we considered partial payment for six weeks, the cost would be as follows: Year Approximate Cost for ¾ Pay Approximate Cost for ½ Pay 2016 $226,331.82 $146,225.88 2017 (as of September 8, 2017) $150,887.88 $97,483.92 STAFF CONTACT: Carla Romine, Director of Human Resources (940) 348-8344 carla.romine@cityofdenton.com 102 Date: September 22, 2017 Report No. 2017-069 Page 7 of 7 1 Steven Findlay, Citing Sources [https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2017/07/22/paid -parental-leave-idea- could-transcend-politics/501967001/News Paid parental leave may be the idea that transcends politics] 2Cook, Dan: Citing Sources: [http://www.benefitspro.com/2014/08/01/austin-city-workers-embrace-paid-parental- leave-po]: para. 3: [Aug 1, 2014] 103 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-088 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Using unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in support of public safety. BACKGROUND: The purpose of this report is to present information regarding the use of unmanned aircraft systems, commonly referred to as drones, in support of law enforcement operations. Drone technology has expanded in recent years to allow law enforcement agencies an aerial capability once reserved for aircraft operations. This increased ability to field an aerial platform has given hundreds of law enforcement agencies around the country the advantages of having an aircraft available at a fraction of the cost. DISCUSSION: The police department currently does not maintain a drone program. These programs are regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration and, as such, require approval to operate. There are two options for the department to get FAA approval for drone flights: 1. Fly under 14 CFR part 107, the small UAS rule. a. Categorized as "Civil Aircraft Operations"; b. Operations conducted under the pilot's individual 107 certificate, not the agency; c. Allows for daytime flight ONLY; d. Must get permission to fly in B, C, D and E airspace for each flight; e. Allows for operation under 400' Above Ground Level (AGL); and f. Allows for operation within visual line of sight of the operator. 2. Fly under the statutory requirements for public aircraft (49 U.S.C. §40102(a) and § 40125). Operate with a Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA) to be able to self-certify UAS and operators for flights performing governmental functions. a. Categorized as "Public Aircraft Operations"; b. Agency holds the authorization, not individual pilots; c. Allows for nighttime flight with permission; d. Allows for pre-approval to fly in B, C, D and E airspace; e. Allows for operation under 400' AGL (Above Ground Level); and f. Allows for operation within visual line of sight of the operator. Most law enforcement agencies operate under a Certificate of Authorization. These are only available to public safety agencies in the United States, and are a department-level designation, meaning the department maintains responsibility for flights flown on the department’s behalf. 104 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-088 There are two primary types of COA’s: Blanket and Jurisdictional. Blanket COA covers a department in Class G airspace anywhere in the United States, while a Jurisdictional COA gives access to Class B, C, D, and E airspace for a limited, predefined jurisdiction. Which COA is right for the department depends on the airspace of the jurisdiction, how the drone will be used, and whether it will contribute to mutual aid regularly, among many other factors. The Denton Enterprise Airport is a Class D airspace when the tower is open (6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.), controlling a four-mile radius up to 2499 feet. When the tower is closed, it reverts to Class G uncontrolled airspace. Drone Usage The department could benefit in numerous ways if a drone program was implemented. Departments with current programs have used aerial platforms for varied functions with many successful outcomes. Standard operating procedures and policies would have to be created to regulate drone usage by the department. Many sample policies have already been created that take into account the current law regarding drone use. Below are some circumstances where a drone program would increase safety and effectiveness of the police response. 1. Search and Rescue Operations – The department has responded to multiple incidents over the years regarding lost children or elderly citizens who have left residences or care facilities while not having full use of mental faculties. Drones would enable a single officer to cover a large search area and see secluded areas that may not be visible from ground level. 2. Disaster Response – Incidents such as tornadoes or other catastrophic events can render roadways temporarily unpassable for first responders. In line with a search and rescue mission, the drone could survey the damaged area and streamline the response time for first responders by identifying the safest passable routes. 3. Active Search for Suspects – In the event of criminal activity, where the suspect is outstanding, the drone gives the department the ability to search a large area quicker and safer than utilizing ground units. Particularly with thermal camera ability, a drone could locate a suspect within minutes during darkness and be used to coordinate a police response to put the suspect in custody. 4. Crime/Traffic Scene Mapping – Aerial views of crime scenes or traffic collisions gives investigators the added mapping ability. Combined with current 3D mapping capabilities, the scenes would be accurately represented for prosecution. Overhead vies of these scenes may also discover evidence unable to be seen from ground level. 5. Incident Management – Many incidents that require a law enforcement response can benefit from having an aerial platform for observational purposes. Events such as protest activities that draw large, contentious crowds can be more effectively viewed from above than on the ground. 105 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-088 6. Tactical Response – collection is an important component in preparing for tactical operations. Drones could be used for SWAT operations by surveilling suspect locations prior to and during operations to ensure officer safety. Also, depending on the specific capabilities, an aerial drone could be used to clear areas unable to be seen from ground level, such as inside vehicles, upper levels of buildings, or deployed inside structures. Cost of Implementation Drone programs, while offering a cost-effective means to gain aerial view abilities compared to manned flight options, can be expensive to start due to the cost of equipment. Below is the cost breakdown for a robust drone program for the Irving Police Department: DJI M210 (aircraft and accessories) .......................................$8,999 DJI X5S (standard camera) .....................................................$1,899 DJI TB55 (upgraded batteries x4 @ $369.00ea) ....................$1,476 DJI X4S (backup camera) ..........................................................$599 DJI Z30 (30x zoom) ................................................................$8,260 DJI Cendence Controller (w/ patch antenna) ............................$999 DJI XT 640x512x30Hz 13mm (thermal) ..............................$12,000 DJI Ultra Bright Crystal Sky 7.85" (ultrabright) ......................$849 DJI Crystal Sky Mount ...............................................................$79 Apple iPad 10.5' 256 GB (w/ wifi and cellular) .......................$929 FlyHighUSA Carbon Fiber Tablet mount ...................................$30 Hardcase and Extreme Landing Gear ........................................$974 Anti-collision and Police Strobe Lights .....................................$345 32,000 Lumen Flood Light ........................................................$950 Total for M210 and necessary components ......................$38,388 Drones costs can range from $3,000 to $10,000. Additional costs for the payload, specifically cameras, can be up to $12,000. The above breakdown of costs accounts for many extra cameras and other accessories that would not be necessary for a scaled-down program. For a scaled-down program that suits the department needs, the program could include two of each of the above drones. This would allow for deployment for day or night operations with redundancy to have constant “on-station” visuals. The Inspire drone is a proven platform for such operations and has been used by law enforcement for these needs. The Mavic drone is a more compact device suited for tactical operations that can be deployed inside or outside a structure. The above costs would not include accessories, such as extra batteries, that may be necessary to fully exploit a drone’s use. Option 1 DJI Inspire 1 Drone .................................................................$3,000 DJI X5 Camera .......................................................................$1,660 106 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-088 DJI XT 640x512x30Hz 13mm (thermal) ..............................$12,000 Option 2 DJI Mavic Pro Enterprise Drone (onboard cameras) ..............$3,600 CONCLUSION: Drone programs have given law enforcement the added capability of aerial platforms at a fraction of the cost for manned aircraft. This capability can be used in many law enforcement applications, from search and rescue to crime scene mapping. Starting such a program requires a commitment from the department to maintain licenses, train operators, and fund the equipment. STAFF CONTACT: Paul Willenbrock Deputy Police Chief 940-349-7939 Paul.willenbrock@cityofdenton.com 107 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-089 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT SUBJECT: Benefits and functionality of switching to LED streetlights including the environmental impact of LEDs once they are discarded. PURPOSE: The purpose of this Informal Staff Report is to provide a high-level summary of the benefits, environmental challenges, impacts, and solutions related to the upcoming LED retrofit of all high-pressure-sodium and other forms of older street lighting within the City. DISCUSSION: During the second quarter of 2019, DME will begin a three-year process to replace all the high-pressure-sodium street lights within the City. There are several benefits the City of Denton will realize from an LED retrofit. These include: LED street lights use less energy than the current high-pressure-sodium bulbs. LED street lights have less maintenance associated with them. LED street lights provide better illumination than high-pressure-sodium. LED street lights have a predicted longer life span (50,000 – 100,000 hours) compared to high-pressure-sodium (20,000 hours). LED street lights have a smaller amount of light degradation after 50,000 hours of use. LED street lights are dimmable. LED lights, with a proper control system and controller, can be managed on a per light basis allowing greater operational control and flexibility. LED street lights are not affected by a “warm-up” period to get to full strength and can be turn on and off without a “cool-down” period. LED lights have the same options, such as shields, available as do other technologies. During the initial LED evaluation study performed by DME, readings of actual energy usage were taken on the products of a variety of LED luminaires. The collected data from all samples provided an average energy used for each classification of LED (i.e. 100W equivalent, 250W equivalent, or 400W equivalent). 108 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-089 High Pressure Sodium LED Energy ∆ (W)1 Energy (W)atts Lumens2 CRI Energy Lumens3 CRI 100W 116 8,550 17 69 5,179 70 (47) 250W 298 25,600 25 161 13,170 70 (137) 400W 465 45,000 25 247 25,876 70 (218) The table provides energy, lumen, and the Color Rendering Index (CRI) data related to high-pressure-sodium and LED luminaires. The last column is the potential average energy savings between high-pressure-sodium and LED luminaires. The table shows that lumens from high-pressure-sodium are greater than the lumens from the LED fixtures; however, it is the CRI of the light that makes the lower lumen value of LED a much greater benefit. CRI is a measure of the ability of a light source to reveal colors faithfully in comparison with an ideal or natural light source. The higher the CRI, the better the eye can recognize what it is seeing. So, even though the lumens are lower, the higher CRI produces better light to the eye. This fact, combined with less energy used, are two of the primary benefits associated with LED street lights. Subject to the results of an outstanding RFP, and City Council approval, DME expects to recommend that a “smart” street light control system to be implemented in parallel with the LED retrofit. The benefits of a smart control system include: Automated “light-out” message for non-working lights. Control of lighting, including dimming and/or on/off, from a central point. Some LED light control systems offer a smart-phone based control application to be used by field personnel. Facilitates Denton’s qualifications for a possible “smart cities designation. GPS monitoring of street light locations to provide accurate billing. Revenue class metering of energy used for the street lights. Reporting of power factor, actual hours burned, and other engineering specific data. If installed simultaneously with the LED deployment, it will reduce overall costs, increase efficiency and the functionality of the street lights. Smart/remote controls could be used to help cities deal with issues such as crime, and pedestrian and driver safety. Denton’s street light count, as of March 2019, is 320, 400 watt; 1534, 250 watt; and 5997, 100 watt street lights. Based on these bulb counts, the City of Denton could 1 Based on medium lumen values across all lighting classifications 2 Mean lumen 3 Medium lumen 109 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-089 expect to save 561.8 kW savings of energy. Based on Schedule LS (from DME Rate Book) standard of 333 hours of usage annual usage, this is a savings of 187,079 kWh. The Environment Protection Agency provides a Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator4 that gives equivalency results for several environmental factors. Input of the kWh savings for the City of Denton’s LED retrofit provides the following equivalencies: Greenhouse gas emissions from o 28.1 passenger vehicles driven for one year, or o 323,455 miles driven by an average passenger vehicle CO2 emissions from o 14,886 gallons of gasoline consumed, or o 12,995 gallons of diesel consumed, or o 144,626 pounds of coal burned, or o 1.8 tanker trucks’ worth of gasoline, or o 15.8 homes’ energy use for one year, or o 23.1 homes’ electricity use for one year, or o 0.722 railcars’ worth of coal burned, or o 306 barrels of oil consumed, or o 5,408 propane cylinders used for home barbeques, or o 0 coal-fired power plants in one year, or o 16,869,000 number of smartphones charged Greenhouse gas emissions avoided by o 46.1 tons of waste recycled instead of landfilled, or o 6.6 garbage trucks of waste recycled instead of landfilled, or o 5,772 trash bags of waste recycled instead of landfilled, or o 0.028 wind turbines running for one year, or o 5,025 incandescent lamps switched to LEDs Carbon sequestered by o 2,187 tree seedlings grown for 10 years, or o 156 acres of U.S. forests in one year, or o 1.1 acres of forests preserved from conversion to cropland in one year With over 7800 luminaries included in the LED retrofit program, DME recognizes that a significant amount of waste would be produced from the disposal of the replaced HPS street light fixtures. To minimize the environmental consequences for the retrofit, DME researched companies to determine their interest in recycling the old luminaires and 4 https://www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse‐gas‐equivalencies‐calculator 110 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-089 bulbs connected with the high-pressure-sodium fixture. Four of these companies were contacted regarding their interest in recycling the old light fixtures -- Pratt Materials (at the City of Denton landfill), Fulton Supply and Recycling (current scrap service provider for Denton Municipal Electric), Stubbs Iron & Metal, and Geep Recycling. Three provided a similar response by stating they would accept the waste but separating the metals from the glass was not cost effective for them so there might be a charge associated with “breakage.” Geep Recycling had no interest. The high-pressure-sodium bulbs, currently used by DME, do contain a trace amount of mercury and the bulb manufacturer recommends disposal in accordance with current law. DME has identified a company in Ft. Worth, Lighting Resources, LLC., who can provide the necessary recycling, documentation, and certificates needed to legally dispose of the bulbs. Recycling is accomplished by crushing the bulbs, then using tort ovens, the mercury is separated from the phosphorus powder. The mercury is distilled until it is back to its virgin state. There will be a cost of $1.25 per light bulb plus a transportation/pick-up fee of $45 and a fuel surcharge of $28 per each scheduled pickup completed by Lighting Resource, LLC. The City of Denton Solid Waste department has used this company for the limited instances that such a service was needed. Based on the projected cost, it is anticipated that recycling the bulbs will add less than $20,000 to the total project cost. Conversations with the DME Superintendent in charge of street light maintenance (who will be leading the retrofit project from the DME crew perspective) mentioned his staff normally separates the glass from the metals. The metals go to Fulton Supply for recycling and the glass will go into the solid waste receptacles – which eventually ends up at the landfill. CONCLUDING REMARKS: Upon completion of the retrofit program, along with the implementation of a control system, the City of Denton will be poised to be a leader in the electric utility industry to both reduce energy and maintenance cost associated with the City’s street lights; and, provide control to manage this critical infrastructure while providing service and future enhancement capabilities. DME is aware of the environmental impacts, both positive and negative, the LED retrofit program will provide the citizens of Denton. It is our goal to assure that any environmental impact is a minimal as possible.

Division Engineering Manager - Distribution -- DME 940-349-7173 jerry.fielder@cityofdenton.com 112 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-090 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Local regulation of state and federal accessibility laws as they relate to persons with disabilities and service animals. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: On April 10, Council Member Meltzer inquired if the City of Denton had established a complaint process in the event a commercial establishment refuses service to an individual due to that individuals service animal. This inquiry is tied to the broader question of whether the City has the authority or obligation to investigate and enforce violations of state and federal disability statutes. This report should provide clarity on this issue. BACKGROUND: Standards for persons with disabilities in public establishments is regulated at the Federal and state level. Federal Disability Law and Enforcement In 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was adopted by the United States government in what was a watershed moment for disability rights. While the provisions of the ADA are extensive, the Act mandates protections for disabled persons relating to five (5) key areas: 1. Employment; 2. Public Entities; 3. Public Accommodations; 4. Telecommunications; and 5. Other Miscellaneous Provisions. The public accommodations component of the ADA requires that no person may be discriminated against on the basis of disability with regards to the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, or accommodations of any place of public accommodation by any person who owns, leases, or operates a place of public accommodation. Essentially, any location where a member of the public is generally allowed access, a person with a disability must be allowed that access and given reasonable accommodation when requested. Examples of such facilities include hotels, restaurants, places of recreation or amusement, and retail establishments (among others). Service animals are covered under these provisions, and a person with a disability must generally be allowed to bring a service animal into a facility or location where other members of the public are generally allowed. However, there are some conditions applicable to bringing service animals to public facilities under the ADA. For example, the ADA provides that service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered, unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents the person from using these devices. In such instances, the individual must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effective controls. So, a service animal may be turned away, if it is a threat to the safety of others, or the animal is 113 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-090 not in control and cannot be brought under control. Further, it is important to note that the ADA defines service animals according to the specific services they provide, and as a result, “emotional support” animals are not similarly protected by the law. The ADA, as it is a Federal law, is enforced by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and may not be enforced or investigated by the Denton Police Department or any other local or state law enforcement agency. Any violations must be reported to, and investigated by, the DOJ. Complaints related to the unlawful denial of access may be reported by online form, fax, or mail. Information relating to the filing of a complaint and the complaint process can be found at: https://www.ada.gov/filing_complaint.htm. Alternatively, the complainant may choose to explore a remedy through a civil lawsuit filed against the public establishment. The ADA is very complex with numerous exceptions made for special cases and both businesses and persons with disabilities should become familiar with the requirements that apply to their specific circumstances. State Statutes The State of Texas has adopted a few statutes that speak to accessibility and service animals as it relates to persons with disabilities, specifically the Texas Human Resources Code, Sections 121.003 -121.006 and the Texas Health and Safety Code, Section 437.023. Chapter 121 of the Texas Human Resources Code provides general protections to persons with disabilities with respect to access to public places and specifically states that “No person with a disability may be denied admittance to any public facility in the state because of the person's disability. No person with a disability may be denied the use of a white cane, assistance animal, wheelchair, crutches, or other device of assistance” (HRC 121.003c). The state statute overall mirrors the Federal ADA statute with respect to access to public facilities, the admittance of service animals into public facilities, and the prohibition of the denial of service or access to any place where the general public is permitted access due to a person’s disability. Chapter 437 of the Texas Health and Safety Code provides more specific requirements relating to service animals: Specifying that service animals in training are protected; Specifying what questions an establishment may ask to substantiate that an animal qualifies as a service animal; and Defines the services that a service animal must provide in order to be protected under the statute (HSC 437.023). Local Investigation and Enforcement The City of Denton through its Police Department has the authority to investigate and enforce the Texas Human Resources Code statutes listed above, but not the Health and Safety Code statutes. Section 23-1 of the City of Denton Code of Ordinances provides that Officers of the City of Denton Police Department have the authority given to them as peace officers under the laws of the State of Texas and, as well as the power to enforce all City ordinances and regulations within Denton City limits. Further, under applicable state law (i.e., Texas Criminal Procedure Code, Sections 114 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-090 2.12 and 2.13), a City police officer has a “duty to act to keep the peace and to report to a magistrate (i.e., a judge) all offenses under state law committed within his jurisdiction.” So, a person wanting to report a violation of Section 121.003 of the Texas Human Resources Code pertaining to discrimination or 121.006 (i.e., improper use of statute) may contact the City of Denton Police Department and make a report. Upon receipt, the Police Department would handle the report like any other report, including conducting an investigation into the allegations made by the complainant. The prosecution of the case would be at the discretion of the prosecutor. The City of Denton Municipal Court and the Denton County Justice of Peace, Precinct 1, would have concurrent jurisdiction over an offense arising under Sections 121.003 to 121.006 of the Texas Human Resources Code, provided the offense occurred within the Denton City limits. An offense under the Human Resources Code is a misdemeanor punishable by: A fine not more than $300.00; and 30 hours of community service to be performed for a governmental entity or nonprofit organization that primarily serves persons with visual impairments or other disabilities, or for another entity or organization at the discretion of the court. In respect to Section 437.023 of the Texas Safety and Health Code relating to service animals, enforcement authority falls under the purview of the County (i.e., County District Attorney’s Office) or Public Health District where the alleged noncompliance occurred. Education as an Alternative to Enforcement A significant number of violations most often occurs due to a simple lack of knowledge of what the state requires and does not require with respect to accessibility and service animals, rather than an “intentional or willful” disregard of the law. For these reasons, staff and the Denton Police Department recommend a steady information campaign to educate businesses and food establishments about the state and federal laws. Further, it is important to note that the prosecutor to whom any case is referred must prove the guilt of the accused person “beyond a reasonable doubt”, as is the standard burden of proof for prosecuting any criminal offense. Unless the officer who is responding to the complaint directly observes the violation, it will likely be challenging for a prosecutor to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt. One effort staff has initiated is to prepare and distribute informational materials to restaurants by health inspectors. The information would be distributed during regular health inspections and the health inspectors would be available to answer any service animal questions as it relates to health codes. Once educational material is prepared, the City can also partner with the Denton Chamber of Commerce to distribute information to non-restaurant and non-food service businesses and establishments. 115 Date: April 26, 2019 Report No. 2019-090 CONCLUSION: Any persons who wishes to report a violation of the Texas Human Resources Code with respect to accessibility may file a report with the Denton Police Department by calling the non-emergency number: (940) 349-8181.
