II. General Information & Status Update
A. Recall Petition Received by the City – On May 12, staff received a petition for the
recall of the Place 4 Council Member, Alison Maguire. For a recall petition to be
certified it must, by charter, be signed by at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the
number of votes cast for that district at the last preceding regular municipal election.
For a petition received on May 12, 2022, it must have 673 qualified voters sign the
petition for it to be certified as sufficient.
From the day of the filing of the petition with the City, the City Secretary will have
seven (7) days to examine the petition to ensure it has the required number of qualified
voters and meets all other requirements to be certified. Staff is currently coordinating
with the Denton County Elections Department to assist in the verification process
using registered voter records.
If the petition is certified, the City Secretary will present it to the City Council at the
June 7 Regular Meeting and immediately notify the council member whose removal
is sought of such action. If the Council member does not resign within seven (7) days
after such notice, the Council shall order an election for the recall of the Council
member. Staff contact: Rosa Rios, City Secretary’s Office
B. Mayor Pro Tem Election Process at the May 17 Special Called Meeting – Following
each election, the Denton City Charter requires an election of the Mayor Pro Tem.
The election of the 2022-2023 Mayor Pro Tem is scheduled as part of the May 17
Special Called Meeting. As part of that agenda packet, the process is included with
the agenda item. To better inform all involved, the process is also attached to this
report. Staff contact: Rosa Rios, City Secretary’s Office
C. Pump Failure at Existing Hickory Creek Lift Station – On Saturday, May 7th, at
approximately 10:30 p.m., the primary pump at the Hickory Creek Lift Station
(HCLS) suffered a catastrophic failure and is currently operating on a backup pump.
The backup pump is currently working, but not reliable as a long-term solution. Staff
is preparing for bypass pumping operations and coordinating with the contractor to
install the bypass connection that was part of the original design.
Staff pulled the primary pump and transported it to Xylem, one of the City’s contracted
vendors for equipment repair, to determine the cause of the failure. The inspection
revealed that the lower seal had failed, allowing wastewater to flood the pump stator
and motor windings. In addition, the shaft also dropped damaging the impeller. Initial
time estimates for the pump to be repaired and returned to service is 15-20 weeks.
Staff attempted to find a replacement pump; however, there are none available in the
United States.
The new HCLS is in the final stages of construction but has not reached substantial
completion to be accepted for use by the City. Staff are monitoring the HCLS, as
options are reviewed, and construction of the new station nears completion. Staff

interested in upcoming rehabilitations, recent building renovations, and available real
estate downtown. More information can be found in the attached flyer and online at
https://dentonmainstreet.org/pages/imagine-the-possibilities-tour. Staff contact:
Christina Davis, Economic Development
E. 2022 Realtor Day at City Hall – On May 18, the Greater Denton/Wise County Realtors
Association will be holding its annual Realtor Day event at City Hall. This is an
insightful event that allows members of the Realtors Association to learn about city
projects and initiatives. City staff will present information on their respective
departments and will be available to answer any. Staff contact: Monica Benavides,
City Manager’s Office
F. TPWD Accepts Parks Master Plan – On May 9, the Parks and Recreation Department
received a communication from the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD)
indicating its official acceptance of the 2022 Parks, Recreation, and Trails System
Master Plan. The plan, as adopted, meets all requirements set by TPWD for future
grant applications and planning efforts. The plan is valid until March 1, 2027, when
a five-year update is required for grant eligibility. A full re-write is required by March
1, 2032. Staff contact: Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation
G. Tree City USA Re-Certification – The City of Denton has been re-certified as a Tree
City USA by the National Arbor Day Foundation and received a Growth Award for
2021. This marks Denton’s 31st year to be named a Tree City USA and 12th year to
receive the Growth Award. Since it has received more than 10 Growth Awards,
Denton has also earned recognition as a Sterling Tree City USA. Sterling communities
are viewed as leaders in community forestry and are looked upon as innovators.
Tree City USA recognizes communities that meet four core standards of sound urban
forestry: maintaining a tree board or department, having a community tree ordinance,
spending at least $2 per capita on urban forestry, and celebrating Arbor Day. It also
gives communities an avenue to celebrate their work, showing residents, visitors, and
the entire country that they are committed to the mission of environmental change.

H. Keep Denton Beautiful Receives State Recognition as Gold Star Affiliate – Keep
Texas Beautiful (KTB), a statewide grassroots environmental and community
improvement non-profit organization, recently named Keep Denton Beautiful (KDB)
a Gold Star Affiliate, a designation granted to only 86 affiliates out of KTB’s nearly
300 total affiliates. Gold Star recognition is the highest recognition status any
community affiliate can achieve.
In 2004, KTB introduced the concept of Gold Star recognition to reward those
communities who sought to go above and beyond its established requirements. To
achieve Gold Star status, affiliates must share information on their mission and goals,
answer questions about their economic development and diversity and inclusion
3
practices, participate in the Beautify Texas Awards or Governor’s Community
Achievement Awards programs, and provide a letter of support from their community.
KTB will formally recognize Gold Star communities during its 55th Annual
Conference in June.
Keep Denton Beautiful is managed and operated by the Denton Parks and Recreation
Department and successfully implements programs to clean up litter, plant and
distribute trees, educate residents, and beautify and enhance the community. Staff

I. Urban Forester in City Trees Magazine Feature – Haywood Morgan, the City Urban
Forester, collaborated on an article for City Trees Magazine that discussed the merits
of the Monterrey Oak tree. Haywood is quoted in the article speaking to the tree’s
hardiness, especially during cold snaps and dry weather. In his position, Haywood is
responsible for maintaining and enhancing the City’s urban forest. The urban forest –
those trees that grow within built-up areas throughout the City – bestows many
benefits to Denton residents including providing natural beauty and shade, reducing
energy costs, and improving soil, air and water quality. City Trees Magazine is the
official journal of the Society of Municipal Arborists. Staff contact, Gary Packan,
Parks and Recreation
J. Update on Council Contingency Funds Process – Staff recently initiated a review of
the process for distributing City Council Contingency Funds. Under the current
contingency fund process, outlined in the attached Ordinance 21-2193, the city
budget includes contingency funds for the members of the Council to make
contributions to organizations that serve a public purpose. The ordinance states that
the funding may be provided when:
• The organization is a nonprofit entity;
• The organization serves a public purpose; and
• The funding of the organization by the City is in the public interest.
Council members are each allotted $1,700 on a fiscal year basis for this purpose. Under
the ordinance, the Council delegates the authority to review the contributions and
execute related agreements to the City Manager. Notably, the Council delegates to the
City Manager the authority to determine if funding the organization serves a public
purpose and is in the public interest. Determinations of whether an expenditure has a
public purpose should be made by City Council since courts are not likely to defer to
a governing body’s determination if the funding is judicially reviewed. Subsequent to
our review, staff will schedule a work session discussion during the summer regarding
contingency funds to receive additional Council direction on not only what authority
is delegated to the City Manager, but also to consider adding more precise guidelines
and procedures to ensure an efficient process and further confirm the use of the funds
as intended.
Additionally, during our recent review of the process, staff received a Council
contingency funding request that may or may not serve a public purpose. As a result,
staff will be requesting the City Council directly affirm the public purpose of the
requested funding and approve the associated agreement. This will be our practice for
all contingency fund requests until the aforementioned work session discussion is
held. Staff contact: Ryan Adams, City Manager’s Office

K. Tabletop Exercise – On May 11, Denton’s Office of Emergency Management
conducted a tabletop (discussion-based) exercise to allow City and County staff to
discuss and review emergency plans for a HAZMAT incident at the Ray Roberts water
production plant. A total of twenty staff members from the City of Denton and Denton
County reviewed emergency plans for response and notification of a HAZMAT
incident, Emergency Operations Center (EOC) activation, public information,
evacuation, and recovery. Having multiple city departments in one room discussing
capabilities and emergency plans improves communication and emergency
preparedness for the City of Denton. Staff contact: Bob Martinez, Fire
III. Responses to Council Member Requests for Information
A. Park vs. Playground – On May 5, Council Member Byrd requested staff provide a
definition of a park versus a playground as it relates to the discussion on park fees. A
park is a property that includes various amenities such as, but not limited to, parking,
restrooms, trails, sculptures, ponds, landscaping, utilities, pavilions, recreation
centers, athletic fields, etc. Amenities vary by the type of park and a playground is
an amenity that is within a park. A nonprofit development can receive credit for park
amenities within their development per the parkland dedication and development
ordinance. In addition, pending Council direction, the development could receive
the development fees waived as part of a development agreement. Staff contact:
Gary Packan, Parks and. Staff contact: Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation
B. Wildwood Inn Update – On May 6, Mayor Pro Tem Meltzer requested a status
update on the Wildwood Inn operating as an event venue. Staff previously provided
background on this property in the Dec. 10, 2021, Friday Report. To date, there have
been no formal applications received by Development Services, nor has staff
received any additional complaints. Staff contact: Scott McDonald, Development
Services
C. Possible Narcotics Activity at Local Business - On May 10, Council Member Beck
contacted staff regarding a report of perceived narcotic activity at a local business on
a near-daily basis. The citizen reported to Council Member Beck that they
communicated their concerns to police during an investigation of separate break-ins
at their property; however, they have not filed a separate report. Information has been
provided to the police department for follow-up. Staff contact: Frank Dixon, City
Manager’s Office
D. Conservation Easements – On April 27, Council Member Beck asked Development
Services staff to point out any restrictions in the Denton Development Code (DDC)
related to conservation easements. According to staff, the City’s regulations regarding
conservation easements are limited and have primarily been utilized in the context of
preserving Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Although this is not the only context in
which they can be utilized, it is the one with which the City has the most experience
to date. Related to tree preservation, there is not a specific tree count that must be
contained in the easement, but there is a minimum land area requirement, and th e
easement must contain the minimum diameter at breast height (dbh) inches of trees
5
necessary to satisfy the minimum preservation requirements for the property being
developed.
The definition of a conservation easement in the DDC is intended to be consistent with
Chapter 183 of the Natural Resources Code in terms of who can hold a conservation
easement. Staff is not aware of any restrictions specific to the application of
conservation easements within Chapter 183. Staff contact: Hayley Zagurski,
Development Services
E. Housing Funds Information – On May 12, Council Member Beck asked if, with regard
to funding for unhoused individuals, if there is a “table of funds vs. need/demand vs.
outflow as a function of municipality/location” and how the City might know when
its contributions the Barrier Fund are over or underperforming for our local needs.
Unfortunately, the City does not yet have this level of detail available, though we are
working toward attaining it. The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)
is built on the data the Department of Housing and Urban Development requires so it
does create some challenges for extrapolating local-level data. Additionally, the HMIS
system does not have a concise data point for location in the Coordinated Entry
workflow which is our most important data tool. We are currently working with the
Texas Homeless Network to improve the HMIS system to help us better extract
location data.
While United Way of Denton County also works with our local organizations to
improve data collection efforts, there will always be a challenge working with this
specific population since it is hard to track inflow locations for people who do not
have a fixed permanent address.
The City utilizes the data available in the data dashboard extensively as our benchmark
for understanding demand (need). We also have all the existing grant performance
data to analyze.
The Community Services Advisory Committee will be reviewing the City’s current
Homelessness Initiative funding to evaluate the funding amount ($703,850) and the
activities funded that were first allocated in 2018. This may result in recommendations
for City Council in the future.
The Barriers Fund is within this Homelessness Initiative funding and is set at $40,000
annually. The City of Denton and the City of Lewisville are the primary funders. The
fund is now county-wide, but the funds are separated by grantee to serve residents in
the respective cities. The City of Denton funds have been expended as of last week
and the Barriers Fund to residents in Denton is closed. Staff contact: Dani Shaw,
Community Services
IV. Upcoming Community Events and Meetings
A. South Lakes Multi-Purpose Courts Grand Opening – The Parks and Recreation
Department will celebrate the opening of new, lighted, multi-purpose courts at South
Lakes Park with a grand opening ceremony on, Tuesday, May 14, from 11 a.m. to 1
p.m. The new courts are designed to be used by tennis and pickleball players. The
6
grand opening event is open to all ages and all skill levels! Staff contact: Rachael

City Council Committee Assignments
BACKGROUND:
Participation by Council members in standing, external, and ad-hoc committees assists with the
development of City policy and ensures the voice of the City of Denton is heard by external
organizations. Committee membership assignments are updated annually by the Mayor and City
Council to allow for participation by new Council members and to adjust participation if required.
The City Council will hold a Work Session on June 7, 2022, to discuss which Council members
will be assigned to city-related or external committees and policy bodies. Prior to holding this
discussion, the City is asking each council member to notify the City Secretary of their interest in
serving on any of the available committees.
Attached to this report is a listing of all Council committees, economic development-related
committees, and external committees with the seats that will be available for appointment. Note
that the highlighted names are expected vacancies effective immediately following the swearing-
in of the Council Members-Elect.
Please review the current assignments and notify the City Secretary by Monday, May 23, 2022,
which committees are of interest to you. After the proposed appointment list is presented for
discussion at the June 7 Work Session, action items providing for formal appointments is expected
to occur at the June 18, 2022, City Council meeting (see attached schedule). Your prompt
response in identifying preferred assignments will ensure Council Committees can begin meeting
immediately following formal appointments.
Council Members-Elect for Places 5 and 6 are also being provided a copy of this report so they
too can begin identifying committees of interest and submit those by the noted due date.
