INTRODUCTION
The proposed West Denton County Area Developments are located west of the Southwest EST and
northwest of Robson Ranch outside of the corporate limits of the City of Denton and City of Ponder. but
within the City of Denton and City of Ponder extraterritorial jurisdictions. The developments consist of the
Churchill, Ponder Farms, and Webster Meadows developments.
Kimley-Horn(KH)performed a hydraulic analysis to determine impacts to the City of Denton's water system
and infrastructure required to serve the proposed developments. The developments are comprised of
approximately 2,750 single family units, as well as approximately 250 multi-family units. Below is an exhibit
showing the location of the proposed developments.
The analysis was performed in accordance with the"City of Denton Water and Wastewater Criteria Manuaf'
dated October 2022.

WATER ' ND LOAD "PROJECTIONS
As part of the water analysis, Kimley-Horn assessed the Maximum Day + Fire Flow and the Peak Hour
scenarios as required by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality(TCEQ). Kimley-Horn assessed
the peak flows in the water system using the existing water system model provided by the City as part of
the Legends Ranch water study in May 2019. Kimley-Horn used the following assumptions for water
demands per the current model. industry standards,and the City of Denton Water and Wastewater Criteria
Manual:
• 3.2 people per single-family unit
• 2.5 people per multi-family unti
• 2,750 single-family units
• 250 multi-family units
• 170 gallons per capita per day for average water demand
• 2.0 average day to maximum day water demand peaking factor
• 1.5 maximum day to peak hour water demand peaking factor
Using the above assumptions, Kimley Horn calculated the following:

WATER ANALYSIS
Based on the analysis,the developments ultimately will require the following improvements to the existing
water system:
• One(1)24-inch water line from Southwest EST to the Ponder Farms Development
• One(1)20-inch water line through the Ponder Farms Development to serve wholesale water to the
City of Ponder
• One(1) 16-inch water line from Ponder Farms through the Churchill Development
• One(1) 12-inch water line from Ponder Farms to the Webster Meadows Development
Kimley-Horn assessed two different scenarios: Peak Hour and Maximum Day + Fire Flow. The model
received from the City included 2018_MAX_DAY_EPS and 2018_MD_FIREFLOW scenarios. Diurnal
patterns were applied to all demand nodes in the existing models.The existing water model has three built-
in diurnal curves. The 2018_DIURNAL_CENTRAL was utilized for this proposed development. This
development is ultimately proposed to receive water from the Southwest Pressure Plane.
During analysis, it was determined that the proposed 20-inch wholesale water line serving the City of
Ponder could only provide 850 gpm during the proposed developments buildout scenario without requiring
additional infrastructure improvements to the existing southwest pressure plane water system.
PEAK HOUR ANALYSIS
For the Peak Hour scenario, Kimley-Horn added the projected Peak Hour demand to the proposed nodes
as described above. Kimley-Horn then ran the Maximum Day Extended Phase Simulation (EPS). The
peaking induced in the Maximum Day EPS model run simulates the Peak Hour event. Kimley-Horn
compared model results both before and after the development. TCEQ requires that a minimum pressure
of 35 psi be maintained in the water system during peak flow events.
Comparing the before and after ultimate Peak Hour results, there are no new additional nodes that drop
below 35 psi. In the ultimate demand conditions for the proposed developments, the lowest pressure is 41
psi,which exceeds the required 35 psi.
MAXIMUM DAY + FIRE FLOW ANALYSIS
The existing model includes a 2018_MD_FIREFLOW scenario that calculates available fire flow at various
nodes throughout the City's water system. This would roughly simulate a Maximum Day + Fire Flow
Analysis. Kimley-Horn added the baseline demands of the proposed developments in nodes to the model
and added these nodes to the fire flow list to calculate available fire flow.
TCEQ requires that a minimum pressure of 20 psi be maintained in the water system during fire flow events.
After development demands are added, no additional nodes fall below the required fire flow threshold. In
the ultimate demand conditions for the proposed developments, the lowest pressure will exceed 31 psi
while meeting fire flow demands. These pressures meet the minimum TCEQ criteria.

CONCLUSIONS
Per our analysis,the proposed infrastructure satisfies the Peak Hour and the Max Day+Fire Flow scenarios
for the proposed developments. The findings of this water capacity analysis are summarized in Table 2
below:

Webster Meadows 68—90 31 —81—
As demonstrated in the findings above,the Denton water system and Southwest Pressure Plane can
accommodate the proposed Churchill, Ponder Farms, and Webster Meadows developments with the
following infrastructure improvements:
• Proposed 24-inch water main from Southwest EST to Ponder Farms Development constructed.
• Proposed 20-inch water main through Ponder Farms Development constructed.
• Proposed 16-inch water main from Ponder Fars through Churchill Development constructed.
• Proposed 12-inch water main from Ponder Fars to Webster Meadows Development
constructed.
