Economic Development Strategic Plan Dashboard - Staff is excited to announce the launch of the new dashboard to track the progress of the Economic Development Strategic Plan. Developed in collaboration with the City’s Chief Strategic Officer, the dashboard will improve Economic Development’s ability to align its team with the goals and priorities outlined in the plan. Using the dashboard, staff can better present their goals and progress to the public, offering increased transparency and accountability. The system allows users to assign tasks, track progress measures, and view performance on a more comprehensive scale. This enhanced visibility will enable the team to work more efficiently, make data- driven decisions, and stay focused on achieving strategic objectives. As of March 23, Economic Development has made 41% progress on the Strategic Plan and is eager to share this milestone with the public. Staff anticipates the new dashboard will continue to drive progress and engagement as they move forward in implementing strategic initiatives. Staff contact: Wayne Emerson, Economic Development C. Substantial Damage Management Plan - As a requirement of the FEMA Community Rating System, staff has prepared the attached Substantial Damage Management Plan. The plan was developed by staff to demonstrate that the City is prepared in the event of a major flooding event that would impact properties in the floodplain and includes initial field surveys, establishing damage trends, preparing cost information, and collecting data. It also established the roles and responsibilities of the Building Official, the Floodplain Administrator, and the Emergency Management Coordinator. Staff contacts: Michael Linder, Engineering Scott McDonald, Development Services and Bob Martinez, Fire D. 2022 Population Estimates by North Central Texas Council of Government (NCTCOG) – Each year the NCTCOG publishes its population estimates using information and data collected from surrounding counties and cities.

Communities can receive discounts in flood insurance premiums for its residents and business owners by meeting criteria outlined in the CRS Coordinator’s Manual and earning credits. The number of credits earned correlates with different class levels which each provide a different level of discounts, up to 45%. In 2021, FEMA released an addendum to the CRS Coordinator’s Manual that provides a new credit opportunity in Activity 510 for developing a Substantial Damage Management Plan (SDP). This new credit allows for up to 140 points and the requirements are outlined in Section 1.2. This document was created to meet the requirements of this credit. Steps to Develop SDPs that meet CRS Requirements There are three opportunities for credits under the SDP: 1. SDP1 – 40 points for the development of an SDP 2. SDP2 – 50 points if FEMA’s Substantial Damage Estimator (SDE) is prepopulated or other equivalent program 3. SDP3 – 50 points if pre-event mitigation alternatives are considered This totals to 140 points available for this credit. The CRS Coordinator’s manual outlines the requirements of this credit, including the following seven criteria: 1. Must be developed using a definition of substantial damage that meets or exceeds the NFIP definition of substantial damage 2. If a community is receiving credit for cumulative substantial improvement (element CSI) under Activity 430 (Higher Regulatory Standards), then the SDP must reference the community’s cumulative substantial damage definition credited under CSI and describe the community’s process for tracking cumulative substantial improvements. If a community is receiving credit for having a lower threshold for substantial improvement (element LSI), then the definition of lower substantial improvement must be referenced. 3. The SDP must be the outcome of the six-step planning process, which is outlined following this list. 4. The community must prepare an annual evaluation report for its SDP. 5. The SDP and the annual evaluation report must be submitted to the community’s governing body. If private or sensitive information (such as names or street addresses) is included in the report, then a summary report(s) must be prepared for the governing body, committees, media, and the public. 6. The community must provide its latest update or revision to its SDP in time for each CRS cycle verification visit. The update or revision must include a review of each of the six planning steps. 7. The SDP must be made available to the State NFIP Coordinator and the FEMA Regional Office, if requested.One of the seven criteria above requires the following six steps be followed when developing the SDP: 9 Page 4 1. Assess community’s vulnerability to substantial damage 2. Identify community’s team for management of substantial damage properties 3. Identify post-event efforts related to substantial damage 4. Build a property database for substantial damage estimates 5. Identify actions community can take to address potential substantial damage 6. Determine implementation steps and procedures for updating the plan The City of Denton (City) has followed these steps in the development of this plan, as outlined in the subsequent sections. 1.0 Assessment of Vulnerability to Substantial Damage Implementing this plan requires identifying vulnerable areas so that substantially damaged properties can be safely identified and evaluated, and homeowners and business owners can rebuild and reoccupy their structures. Identifying areas that are more vulnerable can also help focus efforts to those areas that may need the most attention post-disaster. The City assessed its most vulnerable areas by closely examining the unmitigated properties on FEMA’s repetitive loss list as well as those properties adjacent or nearby that face the same susceptibility to repeat flooding. This effort led the City to group certain properties together into repetitive loss “areas.” Further, as part of the City’s five-year CRS cycle visit, the City developed a Repetitive Loss Area Analysis (RLAA) for Activity 510. The addresses in the RLAA are the same as those identified as vulnerable for this SDP; therefore, some text, maps, and structure data from the RLAA have been copied into this plan. 1.1 Definitions in the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance The following definitions are copied from the City’s effective Chapter 30 Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance No. 22-2064, revised and adopted on October 18, 2022. Increased Cost of Compliance (ICC) – means coverage through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) that provides payment of up to $30,000 to substantially damaged properties to help cover the cost of mitigation activities that will reduce the risk of future flood damage to a building if all of the following for the structure are met: (1) The structure is covered by an insurance policy through the NFIP; (2) The structure must have suffered flood damage on at least two occasions in a 10-year period ending on the day of the second loss; (3) The cost to repair the flood damage, on average, equals or exceeds 25% of the market value of the building at the time of each of the two flood losses, or cumulatively total 50% of the pre-flood market value (a value less than 50% for substantial damage does not qualify for ICC), as defined by the local floodplain ordinance, and; (4) In addition to the claim requesting ICC, the NFIP must have paid a previous qualifying claim. Repetitive Loss – means a building covered by a contract for flood insurance that has incurred flood-related damages on two occasions during a 10-year period ending on the date of the event for which a second claim is made, in which the cost of repairing the flood damage, on the average, equaled or exceeded 25 percent of the market value of the building at the time of each such flood event. 10 Page 5 Substantial Damage – means damage of any origin sustained by a structure whereby the cost of restoring the structure to its before damaged condition would equal or exceed fifty (50) percent of the market value of the structure before the damage occurred. Substantial Improvement – means any reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition, or other improvement of a structure (including repetitive loss structures), the cost of which equals or exceeds fifty (50) percent of the market value of the structure before the start of construction of the improvement. This term includes structures which have incurred substantial damage, regardless of the actual repair work performed. The term does not, however, include either of the following: (1) Any project for improvement of a structure to correct existing violations of state or local health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which have been identified by the local code enforcement official and which are the minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions; or (2) Any alteration of a historic structure, provided that the alteration will not preclude the structures’ continued designation as a historic structure. Previous definitions for SD and SI were the same as the current ones with one exception: SI did not include repetitive loss structures. The definitions for ICC and repetitive loss were also new to the October ordinance. The City does not have provisions for a substantial improvement/damage threshold lower than the 50% or more per minimum NFIP criteria. 1.2 List and Maps of Buildings that have SD Potential The buildings that have been identified as having SD potential are the same buildings as those identified in the adopted City of Denton Repetitive Loss Area Analysis (September 2022), as mentioned in section 1.0. Structures in these areas are mostly older residential homes built on slab on grade in both AE and zone X flood zones. Below is the list of 28 addresses followed by a map of all the repetitive loss areas. A full property database can be found in Appendix C, and individual maps for each of the six (6) repetitive loss areas can be found in Appendix D. 1900 Lariat 503 Bolivar 3919 Lariat 505 Elm 4000 University 1500 Angelina Bend 2705 Bell 1508 Angelina Bend 2709 Bell 1516 Angelina Bend 2711 Bell 1520 Angelina Bend 2801 Bell 600 Tennyson 2803 Bell 604 Tennyson 2805 Bell 608 Tennyson 2807 Bell 612 Tennyson 212 Parkway 616 Tennyson 220 Parkway 112 Mill Pond 222 Parkway 116 Mill Pond 414 Parkway 124 Mill Pond 11 Page 6 12 Page 7 1.3 Description of Other Building or Flood Factors The following are the maps, studies, and other data that the City uses to evaluate flood risks. 1.3.1 Flood Insurance Rate Maps and Flood Insurance Studies Effective Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) for the City of Denton are dated April 18, 2011 and June 19, 2020. Several Letters of Map Change have been filed on the FIRMs and are accessible via the FEMA Map Service Center website at https://msc.fema.gov/portal/. The City follows adopted Flood Insurance Studies (FIS) with an effective date of June 19, 2020. Historical FIRMs, FISs, and Index panels are on file including ones from 1975, 1979, 1983, 1987, 1997, 1998, and 2002. 1.3.2 Community-Defined Floodplain Areas and Higher Standards The City’s Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance regulates a 200-foot buffer around FEMA’s floodplain requiring all structures in this buffer to meet freeboard requirements. This freeboard elevation may be based on fully developed or existing conditions. The following excerpt is from Section 30-53 of the Chapter 30 ordinance: New construction or substantial improvement of any residential structure within a floodplain draining less than one square mile, the SFHA, or within two hundred (200) feet of the SFHA boundary shall have the lowest floor, including basement, elevated eighteen (18) inches above the one-hundred-year water surface elevation based on fully developed conditions in the appropriate flood insurance study or thirty (30) inches above the base flood elevation as indicated in the flood insurance study or, if the base flood elevation is unavailable, one-hundred-year flood elevations based on ultimate development watershed conditions. 2.0 Substantial Damage Management Team Following a disaster, there are many different offices and local officials that need to be involved in the recovery process. Identifying these individuals and offices ahead of time and ensuring they are trained in their roles and responsibilities prior to an event is necessary for a swift and quick rebuild. The following is a list of the members that make up the City’s team and their responsibilities post-disaster: • Emergency Management Coordinator o Assist in communicating to public before and after disaster o Draw on their Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) team (if applicable) to assist during and after emergencies and conduct preliminary damage assessments o Door hangers placed at buildings suspected of flood damage o Request additional help, if necessary, from consultant engineers or other sources o Provide training and outreach to staff and contractors o Identify available resources 13 Page 8 o Notify elected officials and community departments including fire, police, and emergency services, planning, and building code of the upcoming fieldwork o Plan the SI/SD field inspections including initial field surveys, establishing damage trends, preparing cost information, and collecting data o Hire, train, supervise, certify and license staff for field operations o Organize press release and provide information on flood hazards, floodplain map data, advisory flood data and compliance to residents and property owners • Floodplain Administrator o Assist in substantial damage inspections and determinations o Coordinate final storage of SI/SD files o Review elevation certificates o Process and track requests for building code variances and record outcomes • Building Official o Review and process permit applications o Determine if interim permitting procedure is necessary o Collect fees o Monitor impacted areas for unpermitted construction activities o Inspect structures under construction for compliance o Notification on permitting procedures for rebuilding o Hire, train, supervise, certify and license staff for field operations o Ensure follow-up coordination with structure owners is completed o Process, maintain, and track temporary occupancy permits and inspect temporary occupancy buildings o Take corrective action necessary to ensure compliance o Determine if damaged structures have been designated as historic or that may be eligible for such designation o Conduct and process condemnation determinations o Regularly document and require repairs of existing violations of state or local health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which have been identified by the Construction Code Official and are the minimum necessary to ensure safe living conditions. If appropriate, this pre-event documentation may be used by a qualified professional to adjust the market value of distressed properties after an event. Other personnel resources that may be involved in the substantial damage process are the State NFIP Coordinator’s office administered by the Texas Water Development Board, as well as representatives and/or Disaster Assistance Employees (DAEs) from FEMA Region VI. 3.0 Post-Event Actions Related to Substantial Damage The following sections outline steps for the City to follow after a disaster. 14 Page 9 3.1 Warning Prior to an Event If City staff is an aware of an impending flood event or potential disaster situation, warning information will be disseminated via the City’s Alert Denton emergency notification system as well as through the City’s 22 outdoor warning sirens (more information on the siren systems can be found on the City’s website under the Office of Emergency Management, https://www.cityofdenton.com/319/Emergency-Management). The City will also post notices through its social media accounts, possibly borrowing from other organizations such as the National Weather Service. The posts would include information to inform residents of the upcoming event and encourage the public to check back for updates. In addition, the Flood Protection Information page (https://www.cityofdenton.com/436/Flood-Protection-Information) on the City’s website is a static location of detailed information on all things flood-related such as flood insurance, floodplain development requirements, property protection, and flood warning and flood safety. 3.2 Debris Management Clearing debris is an important first step to take after a disaster so that emergency vehicles are able to navigate the community. This effort will be led by the City’s Public Works Division. Denton County’s Hazard Mitigation Plan includes a list of local staging areas where debris can be transported. Also, the City may choose to pursue Federal assistance for debris removal through the Public Assistance (PA) Program. 3.3 Communication with Elected Officials and Property Owners 3.3.1 Notify Property Owners After a disaster, notifications will be sent out to property owners via social media, the City of Denton website, and other methods of outreach. Properties suspected of flood damage will receive a door hanger placed during the preliminary damage assessment that will inform them of post-disaster action items, such as contacting the Building Department for permitting procedures and substantial damage requirements, as well as general recovery information such as contacting insurance agents. During this time, property owners will be eager to rebuild, so it is important to inform them of these requirements as quickly as possible and ensure that work performed on their property is properly permitted. The door hanger is English on one side and Spanish on the back, is a part of the City of Denton’s Flood Response Preparations (CRS Activity 330 FRP), and is included in Appendix B. 3.3.2 Press Release After a disaster, it is important to get the word out to citizens about rebuilding plans and resources they may need. The City will work with their Public Affairs Division to develop an appropriate and informative press release. Below are a few items that are important to be included and considered: • Permit requirements • Substantial damage requirements including information on elevation and freeboard ordinance requirements 15 Page 10 • Safety hazards • Update on public utilities (i.e. what is working and what is not, a timeline of when things will be restored, etc.) • Locations for resources, shelters and food • State and Federal Assistance options • How to file flood insurance claims and how to appeal claims payments • NFIP Increased Cost of Compliance Procedures • Phone number or email address where questions can be directed 3.3.3 Meet with Substantial Damage Team, Train Members, and Assign Areas of Responsibility The SD team members and their areas of responsibility are defined in Section 2.0 of this plan. After a disaster, City staff will schedule a meeting with the team as soon as possible to review roles and responsibilities and ensure all members are trained and have all necessary tools to carry out their work. This SD team will be broken up into smaller groups to assess the floodplain and structure damages or will acquire additional help and delegate these assessments. The Floodplain Administrator will be designated as the Substantial Damage Manager. These roles and responsibilities are as follows: • Identify available resources. • Notify elected officials and community departments including fire, police, and emergency services, planning, and building code of the upcoming fieldwork. • Plan the SI/SD field inspections. • Organize and train the inspectors, and construction code/floodplain administration support staff. • Supervise field operations. • Ensure follow-up coordination with structure owners is completed. • Coordinate final storage of SI/SD files 3.4 Assess Post-Disaster Needs and Request Assistance 3.4.1 Initial Damage Assessment In the case of a flood, the initial damage assessments, led by the Substantial Damage Team, includes a tour of the flooded portions of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) to identify every affected structure and those with obvious structural damage. It is key to identify affected properties in the first days after an event. This initial damage assessment will be done by walking the SFHA and viewing structures from the street/sidewalk. During the rapid assessment, the Substantial Damage Team will use the Survey123 field app on their mobile phones to input pertinent data on the structures such as number of stories, building type, and building condition. The app has the ability to store photos taken at the site as inspectors are evaluating each structure. During this initial damage assessment, damage will be estimated depending on the level of the high-water mark (in the case of flooding) and/or on other characteristics, such as roof damage after a high-wind event. The data collected in the Survey123 app will be used to 16 Page 11 generate a map. The map will help inspectors narrow down areas that may require further inspection. When marking this map, buildings should be marked with green, yellow and red colors to indicate levels of damage. Structures that are marked yellow will indicate the need for a more comprehensive assessment which can also be conducted using the Survey123 app. Appendix H contains screenshots of both the rapid assessment and comprehensive assessment information via the Survey123 app. Some standard rules that the Substantial Damage Team will use during this initial screening include the following: o If a structure has been moved off of its foundation or if there is major foundation damage, it is nearly certain that it has been substantially damaged. o If flood depths exceed two feet above the first (primary) floor on a traditionally constructed (frame) building, the structure may be approaching substantial damage thresholds. o If flood depths exceed one foot on a mobile or manufactured home, the structure may be approaching substantial damage thresholds. During this time, door hangers will be posted on structures notifying the owners that there is a possibility of substantial damage and steps the owner should take first (such as gathering insurance documents). An example of the door hanger is included in Appendix B. The door hanger is printed in English on one side and Spanish on the back, and is part of the City’s Flood Response Preparations for CRS Activity 330. Information collected during this initial damage assessment will identify the approximate location of the affected structures. This information will be used to define the scope of the field inspection, and to calculate the number of days and staffing needs to complete the SI/SD determinations. Areas that have a lot of structures with the “yellow” marking should have teams with more experience assigned to them. It is important to note that even structures that are clearly damaged will still need an evaluation and documentation of the substantial damage determination. Designation Description GREEN Structures with low water levels (if flood); not likely to be SD; approximately 0-40% damaged YELLOW Structures not clearly SD or not; may need more extensive evaluation to determine SD; approximately 40-60% damaged RED Structures that experiences high levels of (flood) damage; clearly SD; approximately 60-100% damaged 17 Page 12 3.4.2 Establishing Timeframes It is recommended by FEMA that local officials begin damage assessments as soon as possible after a disaster, whenever determined to be safe. After the initial screening of damages, the Substantial Damage Team will have a better understanding the extent of the damages. Using this information, the equation below will be used by the team to determine the amount of time necessary to assess all structures in the designated areas. Using this calculation will help in determining whether additional assistance is necessary to perform all of these inspections in a timely manner. FEMA has estimated that a two-person team can assess approximately 20 to 35 homes in one day when they can walk between structures. Or approximately 2 to 4 homes per hour. Keep this in mind when doing these calculations. 3.4.3 Interim Permit Procedures After a disaster, the Building Division will be inundated with permit applications as property owners are eager to rebuild. This may require interim permitting procedures in order to process the large number of applications in a timely manner. This does not waive the requirement to obtain a permit. 3.5 Damage Determinations 3.5.1 Conduct Inspections, Make Damage Estimates, and Occupancy Determinations When breaking up teams to conduct inspections and assigning areas of work, the Substantial Damage Team will send more experienced teams to areas indicated as the “yellow” color during the initial screening. During this time, teams will also make occupancy determinations for the structures. If a structure is unsafe, the building will be marked with notices stapled directly onto the properties. All groups will walk the suspected damage areas and conduct inspections in their assigned areas. Appendix I has worksheets that were created by FEMA that will aid in this inspection process, along with guidance on estimating damages and percentages. Using this data, the team or floodplain administrator will be able to make estimates of the damage costs. It is important to remember that the damage estimate needs to include all costs to return the structure to its pre-damaged condition regardless of if the owner plans to have all of the work done or not. Additionally, if owners plan to perform the labor themselves or use donated materials, the cost of these still need to be added to the to the damage estimate. Appendix F includes two lists of what should be considered in the damage estimate and what should be excluded. All calculations for damage are tracked by the Capital Projects and Engineering Division in a Number of Homes in the Special Flood Hazard Area Minutes Inspection Team Needs per Home The Number of Teams Minutes Needed for inspections 18 Page 13 SmartSheet application that will be updated as additional documentation, such as itemized construction estimates and/or private appraisals, is submitted 3.5.2 Establishing Market Value When calculating substantial damage, the market value used is of the structure alone, and does not consider land or exterior improvements. Section 4.5 of the FEMA Desk Reference P-758 “Substantial Improvement/Substantial Damage Desk Reference” provides extensive background information that can be used to determine market value. The City may also use detailed estimates of the structure’s Actual Cash Value (replacement cost minus deprecation consult with the tax assessor to provide advice on adjusting a structure’s tax assessed market value to reflect the market at the time of the event, and may use detailed estimates of the structure’s Actual Cash Value (replacement cost minus deprecation). City staff will default to the Denton County Appraisal District (https://www.dentoncad.com/) to obtain the market value of the structure’s improvement value; however, if allowed, property owners of buildings may secure an independent appraisal to determine market value. 3.5.3 Substantial Damage Determinations After the damage estimate and market value have been determined and recorded, City staff will calculate if the cost of work is equal to or greater than 50% of the market value. If that is the case, then the structure is considered substantially damaged. To be clear, it is up to the City’s Floodplain Administrator and not another entity such as the State or FEMA, to make that SD declaration. 3.5.4 Notify Property Owners Once all of the determinations have been made, property owners need to be notified of the outcomes. Appendix E contains an example of the letter that is given or sent to property owners if their structures are determined to be substantially damaged. If a structure has been determined substantially damaged, homeowners will also be advised to contact their insurance providers, where resources for NFIP insurance including Increased Cost of Compliance coverage can be found. Some homeowners may have private sector flood coverage where coverage options and resources can vary. 3.5.5 Variances Not every property owner is going to be satisfied with their substantial damage determination. An owner may apply for a variance to the local official’s finding or determination that the proposed work constitutes substantial damage. The owner may apply for a variance to an SI/SD determination on the basis of insufficient information, errors, repair/improvement costs that should be included/excluded, inappropriate valuations of costs for the proposed work, or an inappropriate method to determine the market value of the building. Pre-event outreach regarding SI/SD can help reduce the number of variances. Community officials should inform residents whose homes are within the SFHA that SI/SD determinations will apply to them. FEMA Publication 213 “Answers to Questions about Substantially Damaged Buildings” can be a helpful resource that can be shared with property 19 Page 14 owners. Language from the City of Denton’s Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance regarding the process to apply for variances can be found in Section 30-35. 3.6 Flood Insurance Claims and Increased Cost of Compliance 3.6.1 NFIP Flood Insurance Claims Property owners who have NFIP flood insurance policies receive information from FEMA on the claims process, including the NFIP Insurance Claims Handbook. The following steps need to be taken to file a claim and the process: • Owners report losses to their insurance agents or companies. • Adjusters are assigned to estimate damage (“a detailed room-by-room unit-cost estimate of damage”) and advise owners about preparing the “Proof of Loss” documentation. Adjusters may authorize advance partial payments to help owners start making repairs. • After the adjuster and owner agree on the damage estimate, the adjuster sends documentation to the owner’s insurance company and the claim is settled (paid), unless the claim is denied by FEMA. Often times, NFIP claims can be paid quickly and ahead of a community’s effort to determine building permit requirements. Therefore, it is important that the Substantial Damage Team makes sure property owners understand the need for permits, and that working without them may violate the building code. If they do not have NFIP insurance, they will be informed that they need to work with their insurance provider. If residents ask about filing a claim, City staff may direct them to the following resources: • National Flood Insurance Program Claims Handbook: https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-05/FINAL_ClaimsHandbook_10252017.pdf • FEMA Web Page, How do I start my flood claim? https://www.fema.gov/flood-insurance/resources-practitioners/file-your-claim 3.6.2 Increased Cost of Compliance (ICC) Substantially damaged properties that are in the SFHA and insured through the NFIP may be eligible for Increased Cost of Compliance (ICC) coverage. (Private insurance may or may not have a rider that provides these funds.) As of 2021, ICC coverage provides up to $30,000 toward the costs to mitigate a property that has been determined to be substantially damaged. A substantial damage determination triggers the requirement that owners bring structures into compliance with NFIP requirements for new buildings and the community’s ordinance in effect at the time of the flood event, which may mean elevating or relocating the structure, adding flood vents, or making other changes based on the flood zone. Below are the steps property owners need to take to file an ICC claim: • Contact insurance company and document the loss, including photos. 20 Page 15 • If home determined to be substantially damaged, discuss with community what mitigation activity is required to bring their buildings into compliance and if any mitigation grants are available. • Submit to adjuster the community’s substantial damage or repetitive loss letter, a signed repair contract, and building permit that documents rebuilding requirements in the floodplain. • Insurance providers will also verify that a building’s flood damages equate to 50% or greater of the before damage market value. Owners can also assign ICC payments to communities seeking FEMA grant funds for mitigation; the assigned ICC claim funds are used as part of the non-federal share required by FEMA mitigation grant programs and can cover structure demolition costs. Some communities have found that grouping applicants allow for better mitigation value. ICC funds can be used for relocating, elevating, and demolishing buildings, and for dry floodproofing non-residential buildings. ICC funds can also be used for repetitive loss structures. In order for a structure to be considered repetitive loss, it needs to have been damaged two times over a 10-year period, and the cost of repairs was on average 25% or higher than the market value of the building before the damage occurred each time. Additionally, a flood insurance claim needs to have been paid out after each instance of damage. If the Substantial Damage Team is asked about ICC, they should point residents to the resources listed below. • FEMA ICC Website https://www.fema.gov/floodplain-management/financial-help/increased-cost-compliance • Increased Cost of Compliance Factsheet https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-08/fema_increased-cost-of-compliance_fact-sheet.pdf • FEMA P-1080 – Answers to Frequently Asked Questions About Increased Cost of Compliance https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-11/fema_p1080_icc_faq_20170817.pdf 3.7 Enforcing Permitting for Repairs and Mitigation Compliance 3.7.1 Substantial Damage Requirements Upon notification of the substantial damage determination, property owners will be directed to the City’s Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance, Chapter 30, wherein the requirements are outlined for bringing a substantially damaged/improved structure into compliance. Regulations include elevating the structure to or above the minimum building elevation as explained in Section 30-52 and 30-53. Further, Section 30-58 details the penalties for non-compliance including a fine of $500.00. The Floodplain Administrator will not issue a permit to the property owner until or unless all applicable standards of the Chapter 30 ordinance are met. 21 Page 16 3.7.2 Non-Substantial Determinations For structures which were not determined to be substantially damaged, City staff will review permit applications to ensure that substantial improvement will not be triggered, thus requiring the structure to be brought into compliance with NFIP requirements. In some cases, property owners will try to avoid triggering this requirement by only applying for part of the work at one time. 3.7.3 AW-501 Forms Tracking and mitigating RL and severe RL properties is important for making communities more resilient. It also helps in updating NFIP data, which in turn, helps owners of mitigated properties reduce their premium costs. FEMA designates SRL as any NFIP-insured single family or multi-family residential building: • That has incurred flood-related damage for which four or more separate claims payments have been made, with the amount of each claim (including building and contents payments) exceeding $5,000, and with the cumulative amount of such claims payments exceeding $20,000; or • For which at least two separate claims payments (building payments only) have been made under such coverage, with the cumulative amount of such claims exceeding the market value of the building. In both instances, at least two of the claims must be within 10 years of each other, and claims made within 10 days of each other will be counted as one claim. Addressing SRL and RL properties is an important part of floodplain management and is required for CRS participation (Activity 501). Tracking and completing paperwork to update the status of these RL and SRL structures to “mitigated” on the NFIP records when structures are relocated, retrofitted, elevated, and bought out and demolished is an important responsibility of the City’s Floodplain Administrator and will save time and confusion if these are done on a structure-by-structure basis as they occur. When permitting a structure elevation or floodproofing project for an RL or SRL structure in advance of removing it from RL/SRL lists, the City’s Floodplain Administrator will ensure that the newly elevated/floodproofed structures are compliant with NFIP standards and the City’s ordinance including any and all higher standards that have been adopted. Only when these structures are deemed compliant by FEMA can the structure be successfully updated on the RL/SRL lists and shown as “mitigated” on future FEMA lists. AW-501 Forms to update the status of these properties on City of Denton’s RL/SRL lists can be obtained by sending a request to FEMA. Once forms have been completed, they will be submitted to the NFIP via the NFIP Underwriting Mailbox. When the City’s Floodplain Administrator needs to obtain a copy of the list of RL and SRL properties, an Information Sharing Access Agreement will need to be made with FEMA to protect Personally Identifiable Information associated with this list in accordance with the Privacy Act. The City will need to contact FEMA Region VI for guidance on this request. 22 Page 17 3.7.4 Guidance for Historic Structures While ensuring buildings are brought into compliance, the City will consider the different requirements when it comes to historic structures. When historic structures in special flood hazard areas are substantially damaged by flood, fire, or other hazard, they must be mitigated by elevating, retrofitting, buyouts, or relocations just like other structures in a floodplain. When severe damage or future risk make elevation or retrofitting structurally impossible, historic structures should be saved for future generations by pursuing a combination of a buyout and relocations to higher ground. Demolition of historic structures should be reserved only for those structures too damaged to be saved or relocated. When full mitigation is not an option, only structures that are listed on Federal and State registries can be given a variance according to NFIP and UCC rules. Unfortunately, partial mitigation activities will not significantly lower insurance premiums for any structure that receives a variance because the flood risk has not been fully mitigated. For more guidance, the City will develop an adaptation plan for their historic structures to avoid future flood damage and to reduce insurance premiums. Guidance from the HPO office along with FEMA guidance can be found below. 3.7.5 Temporary Certificates of Occupancy In some cases, like large scale disasters, there may be several homes determined to be substantially damaged and a limited amount of alternative housing for displaced residents. If necessary, the City will determine if the structure is safe to occupy and may issue Temporary Certificates of Occupancy for the time needed to bring the structure into compliance. Any permits for minimal repairs (i.e., electrical, mechanical, plumbing and structural) granted for temporary occupancy must be included in the calculation for the substantial damage determination. Only minimal repairs shall be made so the residence is safe to live in and no other improvements are made until the structure meets the SD requirements of the local ordinance. The permit application will document the purpose and need for temporary occupancy of the damaged structure along with appropriate time restrictions to ensure damaged homes are brought into compliance with local codes and ordinances within a reasonable time. Temporary occupancy will need to be reconsidered once the established time limit is over. A determination to extend the temporary occupancy will be based on need and documented in the permit file. Additional guidance on Temporary certificates of occupancy can be found on the FEMA website. 3.8 Updates to the State NFIP Coordinator’s office and FEMA Regional Office The state NFIP Coordinator’s office and FEMA Region VI are great resources pre- and post-disaster. If the City has questions, issues, or needs assistance, they will notify these offices at the contact information below. Gayle Davidson Brian Bartley NFIP Texas State Coordinator Mitigation Specialist Texas Water Development Board FEMA Region VI Gayle.Davidson@twdb.texas.gov Brian.Bartley@fema.dhs.gov 512-475-1790 940-383-7207 23 Page 18 4. 0 Property Database To meet the additional CRS Credit SDP 2, the City has populated an Excel spreadsheet with basic data on structures in the repetitive loss areas. The spreadsheet, with all 28 fields, matches the data required by FEMA as an equivalent that can be used to meet this credit in place of the Substantial Damage Estimator Tool. The spreadsheet is included in Appendix C, and maps of each of the six (6) repetitive loss areas are included in Appendix D. 5.0 Pre-Event Actions Related to Substantial Damage There are several activities that can be done ahead of time to prepare for a disaster and make the process easier and faster. The following sections go over procedures and preparation that the City has put into place. 5.1 Education and Outreach 5.1.1 Handouts and Letters for Property Owners The City annually sends out a targeted letter to every address in the repetitive loss areas. The letter gives basic information on permitting requirements, substantial damage and substantial improvement rules, and includes other outreach content relevant to CRS Activity 330. The letter is included in Appendix G. 5.1.2 Communication with Elected Officials Each year, after the annual review of this report is completed, the report and updated document is shared with the elected officials of the City of Denton. After the elected officials have had time to review this report, a meeting may be requested to go over the review, updated report, and to answer any questions they may have. 6.0 Consideration of Mitigation Alternatives The best time for properties with a high risk of flooding to take mitigation actions is before the next flood. For each of the repetitive loss areas (aka areas with high potential for SD), the City has considered the following mitigation actions: relocation, acquisition, building elevation, and retrofitting. City staff measured each mitigation alternative as it relates to the effectiveness for specific areas. Considerations were given to the location of the nearest channel, the flood zone, age and condition of the structures, cost effectiveness, feasibility, and potential to reduce future flood risk. 6.1 Relocation Since most of the SD vulnerable properties are not located in the FEMA mapped floodplain, relocation is not a mitigation alternative that would be cost effective or feasible. 24 Page 19 6.2 Acquisition Some communities are not in favor of purchasing properties and retaining the land as open space only because it decreases the tax revenue. In Denton’s case, the City could apply for federal grant money to purchase the repetitive loss properties; however, since most of the vulnerable SD properties identified in this plan are not located in the floodplain, they would not meet the benefit cost analysis or qualify for federal assistance. 6.3 Building Elevation Voluntary or federally-assisted building elevation is the most logical and cost-effective mitigation alternative for the SD-vulnerable properties in Denton. The City could apply for federal funding through the Repetitive Loss grant or Severe Repetitive Loss grant to elevate the structures that qualify, but would also need to meet the local match. Given the recent change in flood insurance rating, homeowners may take it upon themselves to elevate their structures in an effort to lower their premiums. For example, FEMA has researched building foundations that are rated cheaper than others such as masonry piers vs wood piers or even slab on grade. The cost to elevate the structure may be expensive out of pocket but, in the long run, would lessen the threat of getting flooded in the future and having to pay out more for costs that flood insurance may not cover. As in most cases, bringing an SD structure into compliance includes elevation but, following a disaster situation, the property owners would have ICC coverage to assist them in the costs. 6.4 Retrofitting The City consistently encourages property owners to consider retrofitting techniques such as dry floodproofing and wet floodproofing. The annual outreach letter that the City mails to the 28 repetitive loss area properties, as well as the article the City runs in the Construction Guide that is mailed to every resident, includes suggestions for floodproofing such as making sure downspouts drain away from the structure to protect the foundation and marking the fuse or breaker box to show the circuits to vulnerable areas. While floodproofing is not a measure that satisfies compliance for an SD structure, it is an alternative to consider to reduce the flood risk. Method Feasible? Recommended? Ranking Relocation No No 4 Acquisition No No 3 Building Elevation Yes Yes 1 Retrofitting Yes Yes 2 25 Page 20 7. Plan Implementation The City will update this SDP once a year in August/September to coincide with the annual CRS recertification. The report will be evaluated and reviewed by the Floodplain Administrator and then shared with City Council. During this review, the team will go over the following: • Review of pre-event action items • Describe what was implemented (or not implemented) • Recommend changes to the action items • Highlight flood damage that occurred and update this report as necessary • Update the plan to reflect new ordinance language that affects substantial damage or substantial improvement (e.g., the Local Design Flood Elevation, implementation of cumulative substantial damage or improvements, changes to variance language, etc.) • Review of post event actions. If a disaster has recently occurred, the City’s review team will ask the following questions: o What steps were followed? o What steps were not necessary? o Were there additional steps necessary? o Are there additional materials or research that could have been done to make the process easier? o What needs to be changed before the next event? After this review is completed, the City of Denton City Council provides a resolution stating that they have reviewed and approved the report, and indicates any changes that have been made. This updated plan and evaluation report is shared with the City’s elected officials. If there is any personally identifiable information in the data, a summary report will be prepared as aggregate data that will adhere to the Privacy Act. This summary report will then be shared with elected officials and City departments via email, and shared with the public via the City’s website. 26 Page 21 APPENDICES 27 Page 22 APPENDIX A – RESOURCES AND REFERENCES • 2017 NFIP CRS Coordinator’s Manual and 2021 Addendum https://www.crsresources.org • City of Denton Chapter 30 Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance • FEMA 480 – National Flood Insurance Program Floodplain Management Requirements - https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/tema/documents/national-flood-insurance/FEMA_480_Complete_reduced_v7.pdf • FEMA F-687 National Flood Insurance Program Claims Handbook https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-05/FINAL_ClaimsHandbook_10252017.pdf • FEMA Increased Cost of Compliance Fact Sheet https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-08/fema_increased-cost-of-compliance_fact-sheet.pdf • FEMA Policy FP 204-079-01 Building Code and Floodplain Management Administration and Enforcement - https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-10/fema_building-dode-floodplain-management-ddministration-enforcement-policy_drra-1206_signed_10-15-2020.pdf • FEMA Publication 213 - Answers to Questions about Substantially Damaged Buildings. https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-07/fema_p213_08232018.pdf • FEMA Substantial Damage Estimator and Field Workbook https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-07/sde_3.0_user_manual_field_workbook_0.pdf • FEMA Substantial Improvement/Substantial Damage Desk Reference https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-07/fema_nfip_substantial-improvement-substantial-damage-desk-reference.pdf • Hazard Mitigation Assistance Guidance https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-07/fy15_HMA_Guidance.pdf • Public Assistance Program and Policy Guide FP 104-009-2 https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-06/fema_public-assistance-program-and-policy-guide_v4_6-1-2020.pdf 28 Page 23 APPENDIX B – DOOR HANGER EXAMPLE 29 Page 24 APPENDIX C – DATABASE OF PROPERTIES IN SD AREAS In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, Appendix C containing sensitive and site-specific data per address will not be shared with the public. 30 Page 25 APPENDIX D – REPETITIVE LOSS AREAS/SD AREA MAPS 31 Page 26 32 Page 27 33 Page 28 34 Page 29 35 Page 30 36 Page 31 APPENDIX E – SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE LETTER TO OWNERS [Community Letterhead] Date TO: Property Owners Address FROM: Michael Linder, Floodplain Administrator Address SUBJECT Substantial Damage Determination for [ADDRESS] Dear Property Owner: The City of Denton has reviewed your recent application for a permit to repair your existing home that was damaged by [insert cause of damage]. The building is located in a FEMA mapped Special Flood Hazard Area. As required by our floodplain management regulations and/or building code, we have determined that the building has been substantially damaged. This determination is based on a comparison of the cost estimate of the work required to restore the building to its pre-damage condition to the market value of the building (excluding land value). Per the City of Denton’s Chapter 30 Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance, when the cost to repair equals or exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the building, the work is repair of substantial damage. As a result of this determination, you are required to bring the building into compliance with the flood damage-resistant provisions of City of Denton’s Chapter 30 Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. City staff is available to meet with you and your designated representative (architect/builder) to discuss how to bring your home into compliance. There are several aspects that must be addressed to achieve compliance. The most significant requirement is that the lowest floor must be elevated to the Local Design Flood Elevation which is calculated using the methodology described in the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. Please note that any enclosure below the base flood elevation may only be used for parking, storage, and access and must be deed restricted to these uses. You may wish to contact your insurance agent to understand how raising the lowest floor higher than the minimum required elevation can reduce NFIP flood insurance premiums. If the damage was caused by flooding and if you have a flood insurance policy from the National Flood Insurance Program, you should contact your adjuster to discuss the Increased Cost of Compliance (ICC) coverage. This coverage may provide a claim payment to help pay for work required to bring your home into compliance. Your adjuster can explain that the ICC claim may also be used to pay certain costs associated with demolishing and rebuilding your home, or moving your home to a site outside of the floodplain. Please resubmit your permit application along with plans and specifications that incorporate compliance measures. Construction activities that are undertaken without a proper permit are violations and may result in stop works, fines, or other legal action. 37 Page 32 APPENDIX F – COSTS INCLUDED/EXCLUDED FOR SI/SD Included Costs Items that must be included in the costs of improvement or costs to repair are those that are directly associated with the building. The following list of costs that must be included is not intended to be exhaustive, but characterizes the types of costs that must be included: • Materials and labor, including the estimated value of donated or discounted materials and owner or volunteered labor • Site preparation related to the improvement or repair (foundation excavation, filling in basements) • Demolition and construction debris disposal • Labor and other costs associated with demolishing, moving, or altering building components to accommodate improvements, additions, and making repairs • Costs associated with complying with any other regulation or code requirement that is triggered by the work, including costs to comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) • Costs associated with elevating a structure to an elevation that is lower than the base flood elevation • Construction management and supervision • Contractor’s overhead and profit • Sales taxes on materials • Structural elements and exterior finishes, including: o Foundations (e.g., spread or continuous foundation footings, perimeter walls, chainwalls, pilings, columns, posts, etc.) o Monolithic or other types of concrete slabs o Bearing walls, tie beams, trusses o Joists, beams, subflooring, framing, ceilings o Interior non-bearing walls o Exterior finishes (e.g., brick, stucco, siding, painting, and trim) o Windows and exterior doors o Roofing, gutters, and downspouts o Hardware o Attached decks and porches • Interior finish elements, including: o Floor finishes (e.g., hardwood, ceramic, vinyl, linoleum, stone, and wall-to-wall carpet over subflooring) o Bathroom tiling and fixtures o Wall finishes (e.g., drywall, paint, stucco, plaster, paneling, and marble) o Built-in cabinets (e.g., kitchen, utility, entertainment, storage, and bathroom) o Interior doors o Interior finish carpentry o Built-in bookcases and furniture o Hardware o Insulation • Utility and service equipment, including: o HVAC equipment o Plumbing fixtures and piping 38 Page 33 o Electrical wiring, outlets, and switches o Light fixtures and ceiling fans o Security systems o Built-in appliances o Central vacuum systems o Water filtration, conditioning, and recirculation systems Excluded Costs Items that cannot be included are those that are not directly associated with the building. The following list characterizes the types of costs that may be excluded: • Clean-up and trash removal • Costs to temporarily stabilize a building so that it is safe to enter to evaluate required repairs • Costs to obtain or prepare plans and specifications • Land survey costs • Permit fees and inspection fees • Carpeting and recarpeting installed over finished flooring such as wood or tiling • Outside improvements, including landscaping, irrigation, sidewalks, driveways, fences, yard lights, swimming pools, pool enclosures, and detached accessory structures (e.g., garages, sheds, and gazebos) • Costs required for the minimum necessary work to correct existing violations of health, safety, and sanitary codes • Plug-in appliances such as washing machines, dryers, and stoves 39 Page

Brief all elected officials as soon as possible after the event regarding the NFIP requirements for Substantial Damage determinations. Source: • FEMA P-758, Substantial Improvement/Substantial Damage Desk Reference, Chapter 7 (May 2010) 2. Select an SDE Manager. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 7.1 (August 2017) 3. Review NFIP requirements for Substantial Damage and Substantial Improvement. Sources: • NFIP Regulations • FEMA P-758, Substantial Improvement/Substantial Damage Desk Reference (May 2010) • FEMA 213, Answers to Questions About Substantially Damaged Buildings (May 1991) 4. Review SDE tool and User Manual to understand the SDE data requirements. Sources: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Sections 3 and 4 (August 2017) • FEMA SDE Best Practices (August 2017) • FEMA Substantial Damage Estimator Tool Frequently Asked Questions 5. Identify Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) or other floodplain maps to review the boundaries of the SFHA. Data may include FIRMs, FBFMs, FIS reports, community maps showing previously flooded areas, and flood studies by State or other Federal agencies. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 8.1 (August 2017) • Community NFIP coordinator 6. Identify type, location, and community contacts for tax or GIS data for structures within the SDE inventory area that are potentially Substantially Damaged. Any or all of the following data will be useful: owner name, building address, type of house, non-residential building use, year of construction, square footage, number of stories, adjusted building values, number of years since last tax adjustment, and dates of additions or renovations. 58 Page 53 Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 8.1 (August 2017) 7. Identify community street, address, or tax maps for delineating the boundaries of the SFHA. This will help delineate the maximum limits of the SDE inventory area while also showing addresses or lot locations. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 7 (August 2017) 8. Transfer SFHA boundaries from floodplain map to a base map that includes streets, addresses, or a tax map. Using the effective FIRM for the community, transfer the SFHA boundaries to a base map with named streets and either addresses or lot boundary lines. This will delineate the maximum limits of the SDE inventory to narrow the focus of the inspections while avoiding areas outside the SFHA. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Sections 8.1 and 9.3 (August 2017) 9. Perform a curbside review of structures within the SDE inventory area. This helps the SDE Manager understand the scope and extent of the inventory area as well as the initial construction quality, size, and type of structures that will require inspections. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Sections 7.3 and 9.5 (August 2017) 10. Identify the property and structure access procedures for locked or unoccupied structures. These procedures should be written and well defined; the elected officials and community legal counsel should then review and approve them to ensure that the procedures are legal and defensible. As a minimum, these procedures should include guidance on owner/resident interaction, and requirements for entering open property and structures when owners/residents are not present or when occupants are present but refuse entry to the structure or property. In addition, inspectors with permission to enter a structure need to verify that the structure is structurally stable and safe to enter. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Sections 8.2 and 9.1 (August 2017) 11. Pre-load available property data into the SDE tool. 59 Page 54 These data must be cross-referenced to a FIRM, address, or tax map so that the inspectors know which structure and property record are being inspected. Once the data are uploaded into the SDE tool, it will create property records. After the inspection is complete and the field data are entered, the records become SDE assessments. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Sections 3.7, 7.5, and 8.1 (August 2017) 12. Identify the number and names of inspectors required for the inventory and form the inspection teams. The number of inspectors and inspection teams will determine the potential daily rate of completed inspections and a target completion date. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 8.2 (August 2017) 13. Identify inspection areas that may require permission or special access. Industrial parks, factories, private or gated subdivisions, islands, airports, school campuses, and other areas may require permission or other advance coordination to gain access to the property and structures. 14. Identify the proposed sequence of SDE inspections. Decide which subdivisions, neighborhoods, or areas will be inspected first, then next, and so on. The sequence will depend on the number of inspectors, their availability during the inspection process, the number of structures to inspect, and the proposed completion date of the inspections. The sequence may be revised as issues arise due to other post-disaster activities that may restrict or limit the inspection teams. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 8.2 (August 2017) 15. Prepare a list of local contacts for all project personnel and local agencies. This list should include, as a minimum, the SDE Manager, a responsible community official, inspectors, office staff, and the police, fire, and emergency management contacts. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Section 8.1 (August 2017) 16. Research, obtain, or develop base costs for determining reasonable structure values for residential and non-residential structures in the community. 60 Page 55 Resources include industry-accepted cost-estimating guides, building permit data, discussions with local contractors or realtors, adjusted tax data, guidance from adjacent communities, or personal experience with residential and nonresidential cost estimating. Sources: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Sections 3.11, 8.1, and 8.4 (August 2017) 17. Prepare a Letter of Introduction on community letterhead. The letter will be handed to occupants by the inspectors as they prepare to enter a new property. This should include, as a minimum, a brief discussion of the intent and scope of the SDE inspections, the normal work hours and days, the option of the structure owner or resident to refuse entry to the property or the structure, and the name, telephone number, and e-mail address of the SDE Manager or local official in charge of the SDE inventory. Source: • FEMA P-784, SDE User Manual and Workbook, Appendix C (August 2017) 18. Make Substantial Damage determinations for structures located in the SFHA.

Last year the region added 157,570 people. Regional growth last year was almost the same as it was in 2020. In 2021, 21 cities grew by 10% or more. Fort Worth led the region in growth, adding 22,710 people last year while Lewisville added 19,000, due in large part to the annexation of Castle Hills. They were followed by Dallas with just under 17,000 and McKinney with 6,800 and Frisco with 6,500. Collin, Denton, Dallas, and Tarrant Counties each added more than 23,000 people last year, with Collin County leading the way with 41,000 new residents. Ellis County is now over 200,000 and Hunt County over 100,000 population. Since 1990, the region has almost doubled in population. Cities with populations of 1,000 or more are reported individually in this report.

The results are summed along with an estimate of group quarters population to arrive at a total population estimate. Every year, cities are asked to provide information about changes in housing stock and population in group quarters housing. Cities are also given the opportunity to review gures prior to release. Kennedale did not participate in the survey. The 2021 population estimates for some cities have been revised. The estimates included herein supersede any prior estimates. Various totals and percentages provided throughout this report are calculated on rounded gures and therefore might not match precise sums and percentages calculated on unrounded gures.

Both projects were approved as part of the 2014 Bond Election. Recent changes have been made to the overall delivery of the two projects to effectively deliver with the appropriate scope and budget. BACKGROUND: A quiet zone is a section of a rail line at least one-half mile in length that contains one or more consecutive public highway-rail grade crossings at which locomotive horns are not routinely sounded when trains approach the crossings. To establish a quiet zone, each crossing within the desired quiet zone must have some combination of gates, flashing lights and bells, constant warning time devices, and power-out indicators. Each crossing is evaluated against Federal Railroad standards to determine what devices are needed to comply with the quiet zone requirements. Both Quiet Zone Projects listed above are being designed to eliminate the train horn by the railroad company in the areas of the crossings. The 2014 Bond commitments for the Mingo Quiet Zones and Ruddell Extension Projects were removed from the Bond program by approval from the Bond Oversight Committee on August 19, 2022. These projects were removed due to insufficient funding allocations as only $923,000 was provided to update the identified quiet zones. These projects were rescoped and combined to be included as a part of the bundled project called the Ruddell/Mingo project which is included in the 2023 Bond Election. DISCUSSION: Project 1 (Downtown Quiet Zones) – The original intent of this project was to install specific signalization and infrastructure at the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) at -grade crossings located at McKinney Street, Hickory Street, Sycamore Street, and Prairie Street to effectuate a railroad quiet zone. The project was originally scheduled to be completed by July 2019, however, that date has been pushed back due to significant staffing changes with UPRR, along with proposed scope changes by City staff to make necessary pedestrian crossing improvements that will enhance safety specifically with the DCTA Sycamore side path project. The 2014 Bond did not include pedestrian enhancements. Through the evaluation with UPRR, staff recommended the inclusion of pedestrian improvements due to the work with the UPRR right of way and relocation of UPRR lights and gates. Redesign of crossings along with the revised plans will be resubmitted to UPRR for review in the second quarter of 2023. Construction is anticipated to begin approximately 12 to 18 months after design submission, contingent on final agreements with UPRR. The project is fully funded with an estimated completion of $2.1 million. 111 March 24, 2023 Report No. 2022-028 Project 2 (Ruddell/Mingo) – This project includes the installation of a quiet zone at Mockingbird, a private crossing, Nottingham, Ruddell, and Frame Street with the elimination of the railroad crossing at Willis Street and Pertain Street. This will be performed in conjunction with Ruddell/Mingo widening from Bell Ave to Mockingbird and the Ruddell Extension from US 380 to the south of Mingo to connect into existing Ruddell. This project was bundled to minimize rework and enhance safety and pedestrian facilities. The Ruddell/Mingo project including the quiet zones is being considered as a part of the November 2023 Bond Election. The current cost estimate for the stand-alone Quiet Zones is $6.9 million not including any construction along Mingo Road or Ruddell Street. The widening of Mingo Road and the Ruddell Extension project, if constructed without the Quiet Zones, would remove a large portion of the stand-alone Quiet Zone improvements and ultimately impact infrastructure recently installed. Combining the Mingo Road, Ruddell Street, and Quiet Zones project scopes saves on improvements needed for each crossing, relocation of the traffic signal at Nottingham, and the closing of the crossings at Willis Street and Pertain Street for the new Ruddell Extension. STAFF CONTACT: Trevor Crain, PMP Director of Capital Projects Trevor.crain@cityofdenton.com (940) 349-7426 REQUESTOR: Mayor Hudspeth STAFF TIME TO COMPLETE REPORT: 2 hours PARTICIPATING DEPARTMENTS: Capital Projects/Engineering 112 March 24, 2023 Report No. 2023-029 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: March 24, 2023, State Legislative Update BACKGROUND: The filing period for the 88th Session of the Texas Legislature concluded on Friday, March 10. Since the beginning of bill filing on Nov. 14, 2022, over 8,000 pieces of legislation were submitted for the legislature’s consideration. This record-breaking tally includes over 1,500 bills impacting cities. Staff along with its legislative consultants continue to review filed legislation, assess their impacts on the City of Denton, and, in some cases, prepare for and provide written or verbal testimony to the legislature. A report of the bills currently being tracked by the City is attached. Additionally, the Texas Municipal League also publishes detailed descriptions of bills on its website. Nearing the halfway point of the 140-day session, legislators continue their work by hearing bills in an ever-increasing number of committee meetings. DISCUSSION: This week, the City took action in opposition to two bills heard in committee. S.B. 1117 amends the definition of “video service provider” to exclude streaming companies, with the result of preventing municipalities from being able to collect franchise fees for these services. There is pending ligation on this topic and the City provided information to the legislature requesting that the bill be opposed until the court proceedings have concluded. Additionally, this week, S.B. 1110, which would generally prohibit the transfer of funds from a municipally owned electric utility to the general fund was heard in committee. The City provided a letter to the committee (attached) providing additional information on the purpose for such transfers, how they are used, and how they relate to calculations of the full cost of service for a utility. The City gave notice of support for H.B. 540 ahead of its committee hearing this week . This bill would allow grants from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission to be used for new construction, rehabilitation, or renovation of a library or the infrastructure of a library. As we plan for new libraries and/or the future of our current library facilities, the availability of state-level grant dollars will be an important option for potential funding. Finally, at the request of the office of Representative Lynn Stucky, staff provided information and were in Austin to respond to inquiries regarding H.B. 2331. This will would ensure that document requests, via subpoena, which stem from third-party lawsuits would be bound by the same fee requirements as residents requesting information through a Public Information Act request. Currently, state statute limits the fee for subpoena document requests to $1, regardless of the volume of the material requested. 113 March 24, 2023 Report No. 2023-029 Electric Utility Bills The Senate Business and Commerce Committee held a hearing on nine bills aimed at restructuring the ERCOT market to improve grid reliability. Several of the bills target intermittent/renewable resources as the leading contributor to energy inadequacy and would disproportionately levy reliability improvement costs on communities like Denton that rely predominantly on renewable energy. DME filed comments to the committee on SB6 and SB7 (attached) but has not taken a position on the bills as considerable committee substitutes are expected. DME will take a position once the bills are ready for a vote in the committee. DME staff continue to monitor the status of other electric utility bills and complete impact analysis. Denton County Days Mayor and Council, along with staff, peer jurisdictions, and partner organizations, convened at the Capitol this week for Denton County Days. While in Austin, Council and staff had opportunities to meet with state agencies and elected officials, receive recognition in the Senate and House, and advocate for the City. CONCLUSION: Staff, along with legislative consultants, peer cities, and partner organizations, are actively implementing the Council’s legislative policy. Staff will continue to provide ongoing updates on the legislative session to Council via the Friday Report. ATTACHMENTS: 1. City of Denton Bill Tracking List 2. Letter regarding S.B. 1110 3.

Texas Legislative Service. All Rights Reserved. 251 City Manager’s Office 215 E. McKinney St., Denton, TX 76201 (940) 349-8307 OUR CORE VALUES Inclusion Collaboration Quality Service Strategic Focus Fiscal Responsibility ADA/EOE/ADEA www.cityofdenton.com TDD (800) 735-2989 March 21, 2023 The Honorable Charles Schwertner Chairman, Senate Committee on Business and Commerce Texas State Senate PO Box 12068 Austin, Texas 78711-2068 Dear Chairman Schwertner: I am writing on behalf of the City of Denton, TX to provide comments on C.S.S.B. 1110. As written, C.S.S.B. 1110 would prohibit transfers of funds from a municipally owned electric utility (MOU) to a city’s General Fund, if the transfer would result in a rate increase or a “financial deficit” for the municipal utility. Additionally, an MOU may not include transfers of funds to the general fund in its cost of service study. The City of Denton currently effects general fund transfers from its MOUs in three ways: 1. Cost of Service Payments. These payments are generally recognized as administrative transfers to fund services that each utility would have if they were fully vertical. Instead, they are centralized, realizing economies of scale and reduced costs. Our electric utility utilizes the City’s Human Resources, Information Technology, Procurement, Finance and Accounting, and Legal departments. These payments are outlined explicitly in our annual budget. 2. Franchise Fees. A 5% franchise fee is paid to the city for the use of the city’s right of ways. This fee is paid by all utilities in the city of Denton including ONCOR, CoServ, Atmos Gas, and telecommunications providers. This is provided by state law and the City of Denton charter. 3. Return on Investment (ROI) Payments. The City, representing the citizens of Denton, is the sole shareholder of its electric utility, and just like any investor-owned utility, the shareholders (in this case the citizens of Denton) are entitled to a dividend payment that reflects the operational and financial risk they have shouldered. An example of such risk is that the bonds of a utility are ultimately backed by the full faith and credit of taxpayers. This ROI payment in return for risk is no different from the return on equity permitted by the Public Utility Commission of Texas for investor-owned utilities. In addition, the City has several levels of protection to limit the maximum amount of ROI transfers and our ROI is capped at no more than 6% of the net investment of the combined utility system. 252 2 When these transfers, well-prescribed by state law and the City charter, are considered in the rate-making process they act to ensure that Denton’s MOU rates account for the full costs of providing the service, just like any investor-owned utility. Additionally, the electric utility rates in the City of Denton are adopted by the Public Utilities Board (whose appointed members make rate recommendations to the City Council) and the City Council in a fully transparent, public process that affords all utility customers (and all other members of the public) the opportunity to provide comments. Further, each year the City Council adopts a budget that is also fully transparent, is discussed thoroughly over multiple meetings, includes the transfer amounts for each municipally owned utility, and is an additional opportunity for utility customers to have their comments heard by their elected officials. As the Senate Business and Commerce Committee considers many bills relating to utilities, and MOUs in particular, we encourage the committee members to consider the ratepayer protections already in place, the transparent nature of the MOU rate-setting process, and that existing transfers ensure rates to account for the full cost of a utility’s service. We look forward to working with the committee and the Texas Senate on important utility- related matters this session. Sincerely, Sara Hensley City Manager City of Denton, TX 253 254 Date: March 24, 2023 Report No. 2023-030 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Special Citizen Bond Advisory Committee for November 2023 Bond Election BACKGROUND: On January 24, 2023, a Council Work Session was held regarding the proposal for a 2023 Bond Program. On March 7, 2023, in a follow-up Work Session, Council gave direction to proceed with establishing a Special Citizen Bond Advisory Committee (SBAC) for the November 2023 Bond Election. DISCUSSION: During the March 2023 Work Session, staff proposed the 2023 SCABC be comprised of 19 members, which is consistent with the 2019 Bond Program. Since the March Work Session, staff engaged a consulting firm specializing in the facilitation of bond committees. After a review of the City’s proposed program and timeline, the firm recommends increasing the SCBAC from 19 to a 40-members. The recommendation is based on two primary reasons 1.) Committee Attendance – the SCBAC meetings will take place during the summer months when attendance can become a challenge due to vacation schedules. Increasing the number of committee members will help ensure there are enough members at each session to maintain a quorum. 2.) Inclusion - the role of the SCBAC is to provide input and a final recommendation to Council for the 2023 Bond Program. The committee should be representative of the community itself. To allow for robust engagement and community input, increasing the number of members provides a transparent process and additional community input to be heard. The revised recommendation proposes each Council Member will nominate four (4) members total of 28. The remaining 12 members will be nominated by the Bond Oversight Committee for a total of 40. Establishing the 2023 SCBAC and the charge will be considered by Council for approval via a resolution on the April 4, 2023, Council agenda. Following the establishment of the SCBAC Council will confirm member appointments at a subsequent Council meeting in late spring. The SCBAC will meet over a series of meetings in June- July, with a final recommendation to Council in July 2023.
