A. Pending Council Requests Work Session Topics – Pursuant to Ordinance No. 19-
2026, the following items will be discussed during the January 5 City Council work
session. Each week, the topics that will be presented during the next week’s agenda
will be included in the Friday Report the prior week. Staff contact: Rachel Balthrop
Mendoza, City Manager’s Office
1. Discussion on the electronic “blue card” agenda item comment form to be
revised to request people’s email addresses.
a. Requestor: Council Member Armintor
b. Council Member Request: Discussion on the electronic “blue card” agenda
item comment form to be revised to request people’s email addresses.
c. Staff Information: The potential additional field requesting a commenter’s
email address on the comment form would need to be an optional portion of
the form. If the Council wishes to include email addresses, an amendment to
the Rules of Procedure will need to be considered. Email addresses on blue
cards would become part of a governmental record and subject to the Public
Information Act. The Act requires that email addresses collected from
members of the public in this context must be withheld in response to a public
information request.
B. January 4 City Council Luncheon – The start time for the January 4 City Council
Luncheon has been changed to 12:00 p.m. Staff contact: Rachel Balthrop Mendoza,
City Manager’s Office
C. Third-Party Bill Payment Websites – Staff received several inquiries regarding
customers who have used third-party payment sites to make a utility payment. The
City of Denton is currently only affiliated with our own billing payment portal that
can be accessed from the City of Denton website and has no relationships with any
third party bill payment providers. Third-party payment sites typically market some
measured usefulness to customers, such as consolidating all of a customer’s bills onto
one platform; however, using their service usually results in high transaction fees and
delayed payment to the City (e.g. payments are typically in the form of a check
received by mail). Often, these platforms use paid online advertising to drive
customers to their site and rank higher in search engine results.
The site that drove the recent inquiries, DOXO.com, at several locations reiterates its
non-affiliation with the City and redirects to the City for questions and to pay the City
directly. The City encourages its customers to make payments directly to the City to
ensure payments are applied as quickly as possible and with no additional cost that
might be applied by a third party service.
Staff will include information regarding these services, common scams, and the
benefits of making payments directly to the City in an upcoming Citizen Connection
newsletter and through social media. Staff contact: Ryan Adams, Customer Service
and Public Affairs
D. State of Texas Assistance Request – On December 21, Council Member Meltzer
requested information about what the City’s role might be in assisting with any
nursing shortage the County may face. Fire Department staff reached out to Dr.
Richardson, Denton County Health Director, who confirmed hospitals can request
staffing through a State of Texas Assistance Request (STAR). He stated the County
does not play a role in these requests, with the exception of the Denton County
Emergency Management division forwarding a STAR request locally up to the Texas
Division of Emergency Management for a decision on whether to fulfill or deny the
request. Dr. Richardson said, at this point, the local hospitals have not requested any
additional assistance from the County. Staff contact: Kenneth Hedges, Fire

E. Hotel Rooms for Emergency Shelter – Past the expiration of the CRF funds on
December 31, staff’s recommendation was to continue with only one hotel with a
smaller block of 40 rooms using CDBG funds. Grace Like Rain was notified by City
staff that we would not be recommending continuing with the block of 10 rooms past
December 31. Staff recommended only having one location for a block of hotel rooms
based upon funds and based upon experience in order to have a sustainable operation
and provide on-site supportive services to clients, on-site agency support day-to-day
that can coordinate with hotel owner and staff, provide closer oversight, and provide
security. This was documented in the AIS for the items that Council approved
regarding continuation of hotel rooms for alternative emergency shelter (ID 20-2466,
ID 20-2367). There have been reported problems at the second hotel site where the
10 hotel rooms were, and the second hotel has presented a number of damage claims
to their property and inside their rooms.
Staff has been in contact with Grace Like Rain and will provide for an extension of
no more than 2 weeks due to any confusion or miscommunication. This will allow
the City to remain within our expenditure authority and it will provide some time for
the agency to work on rapidly rehousing the families, for which dollars are available,
or potentially moving to rooms at the continued hotel location being managed by The
Junction, or to another hotel location using alternate sources. Staff contact: Dani
Shaw, Community Services
F. CatDenton 35 Proposed Rezoning Case – On December 21, Mayor Hudspeth
requested information regarding the proposed rezoning case for CatDenton 35.
Planning staff are currently finalizing their analysis and recommendation on the
CatDenton 35 case and provide the below information.
Hirschbach approached the City in the fall of 2019 to discuss the feasibility of
constructing a private trucking terminal for their drivers on 38 acres north of
Highway 77, at the nexus of two arterial roadways and 0.5 mile from IH-35. The
proposal included a variety of uses, specifically the following:
Administration and Support Building with offices, conference and training
rooms, exercise space, laundry facilities, day rooms, and changing rooms
Inspection and Truck Wash
Truck Repair Shop
Fenced Long Term Car Storage and Tractor Storage
Originally, staff considered applying the Travel Plaza use to the proposal; however,
Travel Plazas are typically intended as a place for the general motoring public,
suggesting a high-intensity use that attracts a high volume of visitors (including
passenger vehicles and large freight trucks) who stop for a brief period for fuel and
other services while traveling along the interstate.
For the Hirschbach proposal, given the private nature of the facility and proposed
activities, Travel Plaza didn’t quite capture the intensity and activities associated with
the use. Staff again referred to the permitted use table to find a comparable use, but
the proposal was so specific that nothing accurately captured the all of the
components of the proposed development.
3
Therefore, the applicant submitted a Planned Development application to rezone the
property and define the use and development standards. Public notification was
initially mailed on December 19, and the item was published in the newspaper on
December 20.
The Future Land Use designation for the subject property is Business Innovation,
which is intended for large tracts of land that are appropriate for well-planned, larger
scale office and employment parks with supporting uses such as retail, hotels, and
residential. Typically, the Business Innovation Future Land Use designation supports
the General Office (GO) and Light Industrial (LI) Districts.
As with all arterials, staff is concerned about the quality of design, encouraging
increased development standards for tree canopy, landscaping, and site design.
Ordinarily, DDC Section 7.10.5A.2 exempts industrial uses in the LI District from
site and building design standards. Therefore, in order to address staff’s concerns, the
applicant is proposing to blend the LI and GO Districts, using the LI permitted uses
with the increased GO development standards.
Attached is the overall proposed landscape plan submitted as part of the PD
application. While the plan meets the GO requirements, staff would like to see
additional buffers on the west, north, and east property lines to address adjacent
property owner’s concerns. Currently, staff is deliberating the following buffer
elements, but has not yet finalized the recommendation:
1. Three ornamental trees planted every 25 linear feet of buffer for a total of 474
additional ornamental trees
2. One large canopy tree planted for every 30 linear feet of buffer (minimum 4”
caliper) for a total of 132 additional large canopy trees
Planning staff subsequently met with the applicant to discuss staff’s analysis and
public hearing schedule. Based upon this meeting, below is further information on
the proposal:
Staff provided the applicant with the proposed draft recommendation regarding
the additional buffers, and she requested to postpone the public hearing at the
Planning and Zoning Commission to give the engineer an opportunity to review
the recommendation and revise the site plan.
Additionally, in response to staff’s concerns for the LI District, since the
proposed PD primarily followed GO District standards, they are now
considering using GO as a base-district only, including the permitted uses and
development standards.
In summary, the applicant requested to postpone consideration of the item to the
January 20 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting to review staff’s
recommended buffers and modify the site plan accordingly. Staff will reach out to
the representative of the adjacent property owner to ensure she is aware of all meeting
changes and answer any questions. Staff contact: Julie Wyatt, Planning
G. Apartment Natural Gas Leak – On December 12, the City received an inquiry from
Council Member Armintor regarding an apartment complex experiencing concerns
4
with a potential natural gas leak. The Denton Fire Department received a call
regarding Carbon Monoxide detector going off at the same location where, upon
arrival, gas was detected in the apartment. The leak was detected from a supply line
coming into a specific apartment unit. All adjoining apartments were checked, and
all found to have gas in them. DFD had all tenants evacuate their apartments and the
properties were ventilated until no gas remained detectable. Apartment maintenance
staff were contacted along with Atmos who all arrived at the scene. Denton Fire
Engine 3 was called out to assist with ventilation and monitoring efforts. Once all
apartments were cleared, residents were allowed back in, but the gas was left off until
apartment maintenance coordinated necessary repairs with a licensed plumber. City
staff contacted Atmos and to ensure timely restoration of service. Atmos coordinated
a plan to restore gas service to the facility with apartment maintenance staff. On
December 15, City staff performed a final inspection after all repairs were made. Gas
was restored to the facility on December 15 following the final inspection. Staff

H. North Lakes Park Recycling Drop-off Site Improvements – In an October 9 Informal
Staff Report, Solid Waste and Recycling staff reported that, until a program
evaluation is completed and subsequent direction is received as part of the
development of the Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Strategy, the City will
continue to operate the North Lakes Park Recycling Drop-off Site at its current
locations with identified improvements. Since October 1, the City of Denton has
increased the recycling capacity within the containers on-site by 52% (62 cubic yards
of capacity.) Additional signage has been placed on the new containers directing the
public on proper materials/methods of management. It is anticipated that the gate to
the site will be installed and the mobile video trailer will be received and deployed
by the end of January 2021. In the interim, SWR continues to regularly service the
site Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; inspecting and addressing illegal dumping
and site conditions multiple times daily and servicing full dumpsters off schedule
should the need arise.
Over the Christmas Holiday, specifically the evening of December 27, to the morning
of December 28, a significant amount of illegal dumping occurred at the site
(Figure 1.) This site condition is atypical of operations we have seen over the past
3 months (Figures 2 and 3). While much of the illegal use will be abated following
the installation of the gate and video system, staff will continue to monitor and clean
the area as needed. Staff contact: Brian Boerner, Solid Waste and Recycling

I. Hickory Creek Trail Connectivity – On December 21, Mayor Pro Tem Davis
requested information on how the Boy Scout Camp and Roselawn Cemetery factor
into the planning for the Hickory Creek Trail. Staff will work on coordinating with
the Boy Scout group to understand if the organization is interested in linking to the
trail in the future and how the new Bonnie Brae St. and future Bonnie Brae Trail
could provide that connectivity. Located on the north side of Hickory Creek, the new
Bonnie Brae St. will traverse the western side of the Boy Scout property on Roselawn
Dr. At this time, the trail is planned to be located on the southern side of the creek.
Staff will continue to work with property owners and special interest groups as
planning for the future trails continues. Staff contact: Gary Packan, Parks and
Recreation
J. Future Center for People Experiencing Homelessness Bike and Pedestrian Facilities
On December 16, Council Member Johnson requested information on bike and
pedestrian facility plans for the Center for People Experiencing Homelessness on
Loop 288, as well as the Center’s anticipated opening date. Sidewalk connectivity is
planned for the Loop 288 facility. Staff is coordinating with the mobility plan and
Development Services to determine how to connect the different existing sections,
along with the planned development expected south of the building, for sidewalk
access to McKinney Street. Staff will also coordinate with TxDOT, DCTA, and Serve
Denton for ongoing transportation and mobility resources. Additionally, the 2019
Intersection Improvements Project includes an at-grade crosswalk for the intersection
of McKinney St. and Loop 288, with construction scheduled for completion in
Summer 2021.
Currently, there is not an anticipated opening date for this facility. The project is in
its design phase and is determining the construction timeline. Once the design phase
is complete, Staff will provide City Council with specific details on the project’s
completion date. Staff contacts: Danielle Shaw, Community Services & Becky
Diviney, Capital Projects
K. Denton Holiday Festival HOT Contract – On December 21, Mayor Hudspeth
requested information regarding Zera Coffee’s mural progression and HOT funds
usage. The scope of Denton Holiday Festival Association’s (DHFA) PY20 HOT
contract is to support the execution of the 2020 Denton Holiday Lighting festival.
This event was held December 4 with a revised schedule to support COVID-19
restrictions. While planning in the early fall, the event realized a large portion of its
HOT Art budget could not be used as intended due to the necessary changes. DHFA’s
Director, Warren Dane, reached out to Finance staff to discuss using their HOT Art
6
funds for another purpose, as well as adapting their HOT Advertising funds to meet
the needs of the new style of the event. Finance staff was able to quickly approve
their HOT Advertising budget request as it maintained the scope and amount of the
approved HOT application and contract. DHFA was looking to use $11,500 of their
$15,000 HOT Art budget on the original mural location. Their PY2020 full budget is
attached.
Below is the timeline of events:
September 11: DHFA requested advertising change and mural idea. No location. No rendering.
September 25: DHFA presented 227 W Oak (A Creative Art Studio) as potential location. No
owner approval.
September 29: DHFA provided rendering.
October 9: Development Services (DS) advised Finance staff the Oak St location is not in any
district thus would not require a review by any board. City staff agreed that the potential project
needed to be reported to PAC.
Advised DHFA about DS findings, PAC presentation and need for project to also be presented
to Council for HOT contract scope and budget change prior to the end of the program year.
Program year deadline for expenditures is December 31, 2020.
December 22: PAC was advised.
November 10: More Q&A with DHFA about the timing of the mural and expensing it before
end of program year.
November 13: Confirmed with Legal that contract would have to be presented and approved
due to changing purpose of funds from event operations and orchestra to new project.
December 5: DHFA advised having issues with mural wall surface.
DHFA requested to instead use unused HOT Art money to buy outdoor bulbs for Visual Art
Center. Finance staff denied request.
December 15: DHFA advised a new location for another mural was in being considered:
backside of Zera Coffee. No owner approval yet. New rendering in works.
December 16: DS advised location is in DTIP which encourages local art and would not need
any review.
Staff advised DHFA of DS comments on new location.
Staff also referred DHFA back to October 9 email stating the steps needed to take to gain
approval from Council. With no owner approval or final rendering in hand, Finance staff would
not be able to present to Council for approval before the end of the HOT program year
(December 31, 2020).
DHFA replied with its understanding of the time constraints and expressed appreciation of
City’s effort in assisting them in trying to reallocate the unused HOT art budget for their event.

L. Demolition of Houses on W. Hickory and North Texas – On December 21, Council
Member Armintor requested information about the houses being demolished on the
corner of W. Hickory and North Texas. Development Services staff checked the
records on this site and found it had demolition permits approved the week of
December 7. The site will be developed as a 27-unit apartment complex. They are
currently working through building permits and plan to be open for the next school
year. Developers were not required to go through the rezoning process because they
were permitted by right. The apartments are planned to be regular apartments, and
staff are not aware of the developer intending to market them exclusively to students.
They will be market-rate units to be rented by the unit as there was no indication by
the applicant during the review process that they were to be rented by the room.
Further, the buildings were not tested for asbestos before being demolished. The City
follows the Texas Department of Health and Safety standards for when a demolition
7
requires asbestos testing or abatement, and the demolition of these properties did not
meet the State’s standards for testing. Staff contact: Charles Rosendahl, Development
Services
M. Headstones Found by Demolition Crew – On December 22, Mayor Pro Tem Davis
informed staff that three headstones were discovered on December 21 on the adjacent
properties on West Hickory Street and North State Boulevard while clearing land for
the construction of a 27-unit student housing apartment building. Construction was
halted after the discovery due to concerns of possible buried bodies.
Two of the headstones found were for Shelby Howard Williams (1882-1931) and
Lora Elisabeth Lindsey Whitwell (1864-1911). The third headstone was
unidentifiable. The Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) maintains Oakwood
Cemetery and I.O.O.F. Cemetery, along with a database of records of names, plot
locations, and burial dates dating back to the late 1800s. Using this, PARD confirmed
that Williams was buried in Oakwood Cemetery. While the database did not contain
Elisabeth Lindsey Whitwell’s records, further investigation located her grave at
Medlin Cemetery in Trophy Club. She has a new headstone that is a double with her
husband, William Amos Whitwell, who passed away four years later in 1915. It
appears that after new headstones were created, relatives or others removed the old
ones.
PARD currently has the headstones and staff are attempting to contact the remaining
family members for further instruction. Staff contact: Drew Huffman, Parks and
Recreation
N. Southeast Denton Programs and Projects – To continue improving communication
with the community, the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) is gathering
members from the American Legion Hall Senior Center Council and MLK Jr.
Recreation Center Council for a series of regular meetings over the next few months
to provide updates on several projects that are taking place in Southeast Denton.
These projects include, but are not limited to, MLK Jr. Rec Center improvements and
sculptures, partnering with the Denton Police Department to office a Community
Resource Officer in MLK, ALH Senior Center construction, programming, historical
interpretation, Foundations of Our History mural, Denton Women’s Interracial
Fellowship sculpture, and future plans for Fred Moore Park and Carl Young, Sr.
Park.
PARD has several projects underway that are in the planning stage, construction, and
renovation. By bringing these groups together, PARD can continually provide
updates that can be shared throughout the neighborhood and community as they
progress and gain critical feedback during the various stages of development. Staff
contact: Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation
O. Lake Forest Park Nearby Construction Concerns – On December 18, Council
Members received an email from a resident regarding construction activities near
Lake Forest Park and Wiggly Field Dog Park. The resident’s primary concerns were
8
the removal of the natural habitat by the housing development and the disturbed soils
polluting the waterway.
Environmentally Sensitive Areas Habitats
The Parkvue Development site contains Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESA)
including Riparian Buffers and Cross Timbers Upland Habitat. An alternative
environmentally sensitive areas (AESA) plan was approved on March 5, 2019
allowing Parkvue to encroach into riparian buffers ESAs for the purpose of
constructing roadway improvements for crossing Fletcher’s Branch Tributary No. 4
and associated utilities, the approved AESA is shown below. The removal of
vegetation of the protected area would not exceed 10,000 sf. The applicant proposed
multiple mitigation strategies in exchange for the removal of protected area, including
the removal of Chinese Privet and Callery Pear, invasive plant species; the planting
of native species throughout the riparian stream buffer to replace the invasive
understory; and preserve an additional 1.25 acres of Cross Timbers upland habitat
and an additional 5.5 acres of tree canopy cover beyond the minimum City of Denton
requirements for preservation. The latest communication with the construction site
operator about the implementation of the AESA occurred on November 30, indicating
invasive species have been grubbed and the planting of native vegetation is scheduled
to start in Spring 2021. The site operator is to maintain temporary controls along
streambank where necessary to prevent off-site discharge from disturbed areas.
Construction Stormwater
The developer is constructing single family housing and infrastructure and is required
to comply with stormwater regulations and address erosion and sediment control
deficiencies. Constructions sites are required to comply with both the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the City of Denton stormwater
regulations. These include obtaining a construction general permit, developing a
stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP), maintaining stormwater controls
identified on the SWPPP throughout the construction stages until sites develop
permanent vegetative cover, and passing regular construction site inspections
9
generally performed every three weeks by city staff. Developers are given time for
making necessary corrections to any deficiencies identified during site inspections.
Failure to address identified deficiencies set construction sites into enforcement
escalation plans that could result in issuing stop work orders until all deficiencies are
addressed. Parkvue Phase 1 and 2 was last inspected on December 28. During the last
site inspections some needed minor corrections were identified and a report with the
findings was sent to the site operator. The site would be inspected in three weeks
when the status of corrections would be verified. Staff Contacts: Deborah Viera,
Environmental Services and Michael Smith, Engineering
P. Township II Park Playground - On December 15, Mayor Hudspeth requested staff
research the opportunity to place a playground in Township II Park. Staff did look
into the possibility of installing a playground in this park. Staff determined that, due
to its linear form and location of the creek, space is limited. The best location for a
properly sized playground would be at the southern end of the park land near San
Gabriel Drive and Angelina Bend Drive. Based on the Playground Replacement Plan,
a number of playgrounds are scheduled to be replaced in the upcoming years that still
do not have dedicated funding. Staff has tentatively placed the Township II Park
playground to be installed in 2025. However, if funding can be secured sooner or if
another play structure is rescheduled to another year, the playground could be
installed prior to that date. Staff contact: Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation
Q. Sediment Cleanup on Longfellow Lane – On Monday, December 28, Council
Member Meltzer requested that staff investigate and remediate dirt and other
sediment on Longfellow Lane resulting from nearby construction on Windsor Drive.
Quality Excavation is the contractor for the 2019 Street Reconstruction Project,
which includes Windsor Drive. After receiving the request from staff, Quality had
crews sweep the stretch of Longfellow Lane containing sediment on Tuesday,
December 29. Below are before and after photos of the sediment remediation work
that took place earlier this week on Longfellow Lane. Staff contact: Trevor Crain,
Capital Projects

R. American Legion Hall Update – Details of staff's efforts to overcome issues with the
original architect’s design are available in previous Friday Reports. Staff will
continue to work with the current contractor and architect to address those issues in
an effort to keep the project on schedule. In November, minimal construction activity
took place, however, the project’s current architect and the contractor worked
diligently through numerous design questions and clarifications. The contractor was
able to begin interior construction activities in December as the exterior/structural
issue collaboration efforts were underway. Most of the issues were resolved in early
December, resulting in the contractor being able to order the needed structural
supplies. These supplies are now onsite and the contractor is making visible progress.
There was some further delay as a result of subcontractor COVID-19 exposures
resulting in a workforce shortage for two weeks.
Previous reports show that the original project schedule substantial completion date
of February 18, 2021 was modified several times as a result of the numerous delays.
The lengthy collaboration efforts between the contractor, architect, and staff, along
with supply deliveries, resulted in an updated substantial completion date of April 8,
2021.
While there are no current construction budget issues, Parks staff is working on
addressing a potential budget shortfall for some unexpected FF&E (furniture, fixtures
and equipment), however, this is not holding up the current construction efforts. Staff
contact: Scott Gray, Facilities
S. Interstate 35 and US 380 Interchange Safety Enhancements Update – On
December 27, Mayor Hudspeth forwarded a resident’s concerns about the safety of
the of the northbound I-35 and US 380 interchange. As stated in the November 13,
2020 Friday Report, while both Interstate 35 and US 380 are both state-owned
facilities, City staff is working with TxDOT to identify and evaluate potential interim
solutions to improve the overall safety of the intersection prior to the long-term
solution being implemented by TxDOT. Multiple solutions will be evaluated,
including but not limited to:
Reversing the entrance ramp from Oak St. & the exit ramp to US 380
Eliminating the entrance ramp from Oak St.
Adding an additional left turn northbound at US 380
Adding an extension of the existing right turn lane to US 380 from the NB I-35
frontage road
Creating/signing a second exit from NB I-35W to the NB frontage road prior to
the I-35E/I-35W merge
Signalization of W. Oak St. and the NB I-35W frontage road
Potential revisions to the existing lane markings on US 380 east of I-35
Evaluating the traffic signals to ensure timing is at optimal efficiency
After the initial meeting with TxDOT on November 18, the City performed a traffic
count study that concluded on December 11. Staff is now in the process of analyzing
the data to determine which of the proposed interim solutions are viable. This analysis
will not only tell which alternatives are feasible, but also how effective each option
would be in reducing the congestion in the study corridor. The study is scheduled to
11
be complete by mid-January, after which the City will share the results with TxDOT
for their review and approval. The City and TxDOT will then develop plans for the
implementation, including public outreach, construction, scheduling and funding, of
the selected improvements.
Additionally, the resident requested a contact at TxDOT to voice his concerns to as
well as information public hearings from TxDOT. For inquiries about planned and
upcoming TxDOT construction projects, residents can reach out to the Area
Engineer, Tina Massey. Also, information about upcoming public hearings held by
TxDOT can be found here: https://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/get-
involved/about/hearings-meetings.html. Staff contact: Rebecca Diviney, Capital
Projects
T. Operation Rudolph – On Tuesday, December 29, the Denton Fire Department
completed Operation Rudolph for the 2020 holiday season. Operation Rudolph
consisted of two fire trucks (Rudolph 1 and 2) adorned with Christmas decorations
and lights that drove through every community in Denton in a show of holiday
spirit. For 16 nights, the two trucks covered over 500 miles across Denton. The idea
for Operation Rudolph was formulated from fire departments in other cities
performing similar acts in years past. Due to this year’s pandemic and the inability to
socialize in groups, the Denton Fire Department developed a plan to bring the holiday
spirit to each citizen. Two nights were set aside for Santa to make a special
appearance and citizens were able to drive by and say hello. The Fire Department
would like to thank its employees for over 100 hours of volunteered personal time to
pilot Rudolph 1 and 2 around the city. Thanks also go out to Santa and Mayor
Hudspeth for making this holiday season a little brighter. Staff contact: Kenneth
Hedges, Fire

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
FY 2019-20 Denton Energy Center (DEC) YTD July, August, and September 2020 Dashboards.
BACKGROUND:
Attached are the July, August and September 2020 (Q4) Dashboards for the Denton Energy
Center. The dashboards are usually provided to City Council in a Friday Report at the end of
each month. The unseasonably cooler weather during the summer months resulted in lower usage
than previously forecast. Staff delayed providing the FY 2019-20 July, August, and September
dashboards due to year-end projections changing as a result of the summer weather and usage.
Staff is preparing to provide October, November, and December 2020 dashboards to Council in
January 2021.
The dashboards are intended to give a snapshot of relevant DEC metrics. The dashboards
highlight the following:
The Emission Charts (based on calendar year) display the July, August and September
engine runtime hours, starts, stops, monthly and annual emissions totals and limits.
DEC MWh Generation and Gross Revenue for FY 2019-20.
o The DEC ran 55,258 MWh less in FY 2019-20 compared to FY 2018-19. This
resulted in $24.7 Million less in DEC Revenue.
A DEC financial summary showing FY 2018-19 Actuals, FY 2019-20 Budget, the FY
2019-20 Estimate as of June 30, and the FY2019-20 Preliminary Actuals.
The Plant Monthly Run Hour Comparison Graph illustrates the monthly plant run times.
The Key Trends section explains variances in revenues and expenses.
o Due to running fewer hours in FY 2019-20, fuel cost was approximately $3.35
Million lower than in FY 2018-19.
o The DEC Net Income for FY 2019-20 was ($11.98) which is $26.2 Million less
than in FY 2018-19.
o The DEC Gross Margin for FY 2019-20 was $9.0 Million which is $21.3 Million
less than in FY 2018-19. This is a result of unseasonably cooler weather during
the summer months (Gross Margin = DEC Revenue – Fuel cost –Variable
Operating & Maintenance cost). Gross Margin represents the component of
revenue available to pay fixed cost including debt.

Key Trends
For the first 10 months of FY 2019-20, the DEC produced 50,530 MWh less than the same period of FY 2018-19.
This resulted in approximately $3.5 Million less in revenues and $2.7 Million more in total expenses for the same
time period. This increase was due to the annual debt service payment increasing from $10 Million to $18 Million
in FY 19-20. As of July 31, 2020, expenditures exceed revenues by $11.85 Million. The FY 2019-20 Estimate
includes a $1.5 Million reduction in fuel cost based on fewer estimated run hours, and a $420,000 reduction in
Personnel Services is anticipated as a result of vacancies. The FY 2019-20 Estimate for Insurance has increased by
$580,218 as a result of an increase in the cost of DEC property insurance and the acquisition of outage insurance.
Through July 2020 the DEC Gross Margin was $5.8 Million which is $277,300 higher than budgeted for the same
period (Gross Margin = DEC Revenue –Fuel Cost –Variable Operating & Maintenance Cost). This is due to higher
revenue in each month this fiscal year except December, January, June and July than anticipated.
Updates in the DEC Revenue and Energy Expenses for FY 2019-20 year-end projections show a $(7.48) Million Net
Income compared to the $(8.95) Million Net Income shown in the FY 2019-20 budget.
Note: All dollar figures presented are in millions of dollars.

Key Trends
For the first 11 months of FY 2019-20, the DEC produced 63,828 MWh less than the same period of FY 2018-19.
This resulted in approximately $19.8 Million less in revenues and $2.2 Million more in total expenses for the same
time period. This increase was due to the annual debt service payment increasing from $10 Million to $18 Million
in FY 19-20. As of August 31, 2020, expenditures exceed revenues by $8.95 Million. The FY 2019-20 Estimate
includes a $1.5 Million reduction in fuel cost based on fewer estimated run hours, and a $420,000 reduction in
Personnel Services is anticipated as a result of vacancies. The FY 2019-20 Estimate for Insurance has increased by
$580,218 as a result of an increase in the cost of DEC property insurance and the acquisition of outage insurance.
Through August 2020 the DEC Gross Margin was $8.50 Million which is $3.5 Million less than budgeted for the
same period (Gross Margin = DEC Revenue –Fuel Cost –Variable Operating & Maintenance Cost). This is due to
unseasonably cooler weather in July and August. Updates in the DEC Revenue and Energy Expenses for FY 2019-
20 year-end projections show a $(7.48) Million Net Income compared to the $(8.95) Million Net Income shown in
the FY 2019-20 budget.

Key Trends
In FY 2019-20, the DEC produced 55,258 MWh less than in FY 2018-19. This resulted in approximately $24.7
Million less in revenues and $1.5 Million more in total expenses as compared to FY 2018-19. The decreased
revenue was due to the unseasonably warm weather in the summer months. As of September 30, 2020,
expenditures exceeded revenues by $12.0 Million. The FY 2019-20 Preliminary Actuals for fuel cost were
$3.4 Million less than in FY 2018-19 as a result of fewer run hours. The FY 2019-20 Preliminary Actuals for
Insurance were $625,000 higher than in FY 2018-19 as a result of an increase in the cost of DEC property
insurance and the acquisition of outage insurance. The debt service in FY 2019-20 was $3.7 Million more
than in FY 2018-19.
The DEC Gross Margin for FY 2019-20 was $9.0 Million which is $21.3 Million less than in FY 2018-19 (Gross
Margin = DEC Revenue –Fuel Cost –Variable Operating & Maintenance Cost). Again, this is due to
unseasonably cooler weather in July and August. FY 2019-20 year-end preliminary actuals show $(11.98)
Million in Net Income compared to $14.22 Million in Net Income for FY 2018-19.

REGISTRATION GUIDELINES FOR ADDRESSING THE CITY COUNCIL
Due to COVID-19 precautions, members of the public will not be able to attend the January 12, 2021,
City Council meeting in-person. To accommodate and receive input on agenda items, citizens will be able
to participate in one of the following ways (NOTE: Other than public hearings, citizens are only able to
comment one time per agenda item; citizens cannot use both methods to comment on a single agenda item.
Public comments are not held for work session reports.):
• Virtual White Card – On January 8, the agenda was posted online at
www.cityofdenton.com/publicmeetings. Once the agenda is posted, a link to the Virtual White Card, an
online form, will be made available under the main heading on the webpage. Within this form, citizens may
indicate support or opposition and submit a brief comment about a specific agenda item. Comments may
be submitted up until the start of the meeting, at which time, the Virtual White Card form will be closed.
Similar to when a citizen submits a white card to indicate their position on the item, these comment forms
will be sent directly to City Council members and recorded by the City Secretary.
City Council Members review comments received in advance of the meeting and take that public input into
consideration prior to voting on an agenda item. The Mayor will announce the number of Comment Cards
submitted in support or opposition to an item during the public comment period. Comments will not be
read during the meeting. The City Secretary will reflect the number of comments submitted in
favor/opposition to an item, the registrant’s name, address, and (summary of) comments within the Minutes
of the Meeting, as applicable.

• By phone – Citizens wishing to speak over the phone during this Council meeting, may call (940)
349-7800 beginning 30 minutes prior to the meeting start time. Comments by phone will be accepted until
the item is opened for discussion by the Council. When the call is initially received, a staff member will
receive the caller’s information and either: 1) offer to call the citizen back when it is time for them to speak,
or 2) record the caller’s information, support or opposition, and comment. If the caller chooses to record
their support or opposition, rather than speaking during the meeting, the Mayor will announce the number
of comments submitted in support or opposition to the item. If the caller wishes to receive a call back, the
voice of each caller will be broadcast into the meeting during the public commenting time of their desired
agenda item. Individuals will be able to comment once per agenda item, no matter the method.
• At regular meetings only, citizens can speak on any topic that is not on the agenda (Open Microphone).
Alert the call taker if you wish to speak under the Open Microphone category. If you would like to give a
public report, see the information below.
