INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
Creation of a Quakertown Memorial Fund
SUMMARY:
On July 27, 2026, Council Member Rumohr submitted a two-minute pitch to incorporate the
creation of a new Quakertown Memorial Fund into the FY27 budget discussions. This fund would
support the development, construction, and maintenance of memorial elements within Quakertown
Park that honor the history of Quakertown and its former residents, as outlined in the Design
Downtown Denton Master Plan.
The ground lease for the Women’s Club Building, approved on May 5, 2026, includes an annual
rental payment of $1,320. The allocation of these funds was recommended to be addressed through
the FY27 budget process and did not require a pitch for allocation of the annual rent payment.
With this information, Council Member Rumohr revised the pitch to direct all profits generated
from any revenue-producing events held during the City’s in-kind use be directed into a new
Quakertown Memorial Fund. On August 4, 2026, the City Council gave direction to proceed with
the two-minute pitch proposal as outlined in Ordinance 24-1725.
DISCUSSION:
Fund Overview and Feasibility
This proposal recommends establishing a dedicated donation account to hold contributions
designated for commemorating Quakertown’s history. All contributions, including the annual rent
payment of $1,320, can accumulate in this account until the City Council authorizes a specific
project. Once a project is approved, such as the design, fabrication, or installation of a qualifying
memorial element, funds can be drawn down to cover those costs. This structure allows the Fund
to grow across multiple budget cycles and support larger commemorative projects over time, rather
than limiting efforts to what can be accomplished within a single year’s contributions.
With Council direction, the revenue and expenditures for this purpose can be managed within the
existing Parks Donation Fund. Funds can be earmarked and tracked specifically for a Quakertown
memorial.
City In-Kind Use of the Women’s Building
7 Table of contents
September 18, 2026 Report No. 2026-057
The ground lease includes 24 days per calendar year available for City use. The City and the
Denton Women’s Federation have outlined procedures and expectations for scheduling and
utilizing this in-kind building use. The intent is to allow flexibility for community and
organizational activities while also supporting the operational need to accommodate paid rentals
and revenue-generating opportunities for the Women’s Federation, which relies on paid rentals for
building upkeep.
As of September 2026, the City has not finalized its intended use of the available in-kind days.
With Council direction, these in-kind days could be designated either as a set number or the full
annual allocation of 24 days for City-programmed, revenue-generating events, with proceeds
deposited into the memorial donation fund. Alternatively, the City could offer in-kind use to
organizations with an agreement that event profits be directed to the Fund.
CONCLUSION:
With Council direction, the existing Parks Donation Fund can receive the annual ground-lease rent
of $1,320 designated for commemorating Quakertown’s history through a memorial. Generating
additional revenue for the memorial through the annual allocation of in-kind building use will
require further discussion and guidance on whether to utilize all or a portion of the available in-kind
days, and whether those days would be programmed by the City or by partner organizations, with
proceeds directed to a Quakertown memorial. Staff recommends that the Parks and Recreation and
Library Departments evaluate what types of revenue-generating programming would be
appropriate for the building and seek feedback from their respective boards prior to a Council
Work Session.
Upon receipt of the Informal Staff Report, Council Member Rumohr may indicate if the
information provided satisfies their request. The item will be considered by the Agenda Committee
for placement on a future Work Session agenda and routing through an appropriate board,
commission, or committee.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:
The City’s Protest of Baruch Atah LLC’s Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES)
Permit (ID WQ0016921001) for its Cole Ranch Wastewater Treatment Plant.
BACKGROUND:
The City Manager, or their designee, is authorized to protest TPDES permit applications in
accordance with the City’s TPDES Delegation Ordinance (Ordinance 24-2480). Baruch Atah, LLC
is the property owner of Sunnybrook, a proposed 2,727 lot development planned by TCCI Land
Development. Sunnybrook is located approximately 8 miles northwest of the Interstate 35 and US
Highway 380 intersection and within Denton’s extraterritorial jurisdiction 2 (ETJ 2).
On December 30, 2025, Baruch Atah, LLC., filed an application for a TPDES permit. The Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) published the Notice of Receipt of Application
and Intent to Obtain Water Quality Permit on February 6, 2026. TCEQ completed its technical
review of the permit application, and on August 5, 2026, issued a Notice of Application and
Preliminary Decision, along with a draft permit. Notice was published in the Denton Record
Chronicle on August 15, 2026. The deadline to submit comments and request a contested case
hearing was September 14, 2026.
After staff review of the draft permit, the City filed comments and a request for a contested case
hearing. The comments and hearing request were filed on September 14, 2026. Specifically, the
City argued:
•The proposed permit is not protective of water quality;
•The Applicant failed to meaningfully consider regionalization under state law;
•The Applicant has not demonstrated their need for the proposed permit;
•The Applicant failed to satisfy the public involvement plan requirements; and
•The Applicant failed to meet the sludge and biosolids management and disposal
requirements.
The potential impact of this permit to the City involves water quality in the watershed and in
Lewisville Lake, one of Denton’s drinking water supply sources.
DISCUSSION:
The next steps following the City’s submission of its protest letter are:
•TCEQ Review – TCEQ staff evaluate the application, public comments, and any technical
or legal issues.
•Responses to public comments are issued by the TCEQ Executive Director.
•Hearing Referral – The TCEQ Commissioners determine whether hearing requestors are
“Affected persons” entitled to hearing. If there are “Affected persons,” the Commissioners
9 Table of contents
September 18, 2026 Report No. 2026-058
will grant a hearing to those persons and refer the matter to the State Office of
Administrative Hearings (SOAH), with a list of issues for review.
• SOAH Hearing – The SOAH Administrative Law Judge conducts the hearing, considers
evidence, and issues an opinion.
• Final Determination – The TCEQ Commissioners consider whether to issue the permit
based on the hearing outcome and other regulatory requirements.
Staff will keep City Council informed of status updates.
