V• CITIZENS COMMUNICATIONS:
Lela Linam appeared before the Council to discuss the City's "water shortage."
Mrs.,Linam asked how the Council could "even consider" a surcharge on water when:
1) the City has a contract to sell water to Brushy Bend; 2) the City encourages more
.industry; 3) the City continues to issue building permits; and 4) the City allows
'2,000 broken water meters to go unrepaired." Mrs. Linam concluded by saying the
"entire situation" was a creation of "official mistakes and mismanagement."
President of the Dolphin Swim Team, Bill Peterson, asked to go on record
"against closing the City pool" as "rumors" would suggest. Peterson told the Council
about the swim team and their schedules.
Hank Taylor told the Council he could not see "a surcharge with the
continuation of issuing building permits." Taylor continued by saying, "I don't feel
this administration is representing the people."
Terry McKenna questioned City staff about the fire hydrants in town. Bennett
explained that the maintenance program had been suspended until the water situation
has been resolved. McKenna stated he felt the program should continue until the City
repaired or replaced the broken meters in town. McKenna concluded by saying, "Before
you ask the citizens to pay a surcharge, you need a better idea where the water is -going."
Thirty-one year resident, Barney Koe.pp, stated the City "should consider the growth
of the community before you start charging an unlimited amount for water." Koepp ended
his statements by saying the City should look farther than Georgetown for surface water
and should consider growth with what services the City can furnish.
July '24, 1980
John Redden, 708 Chisholm Valley Drive, presented to the Council the attached
petition for improvements to the parks in Chisholm Valley.
Hank Taylor asked the Council to respond to comments made by the ones who addressed
the Council. Mayor Tonn',stated that the surcharge was to be discussed later in the agenda
and everyone was welcome to remain for Council comments.
Sharon, Mobley, a new Egger Acres resident, stated her family had purchased an
established home and was given the impression that Round Rock has no water problems at
a11. Mobley concluded, "You are not being honest with new people moving in; your people
are giving out misinformation.
Round Rock West resident, Joyce Stark, stated that she was in total disagreement
with the administration: "We have nothing to say, you've already done what your want."
she went on to tell the ',Council, "Your -forgetting we're the one's who elected you and
pay your salary. We didn't ask you to run."
Barney Koepp asked if water from the big hole below the dam at Veteran's Park was
going into the 'Brushy Creek well. Mayor Tonn stated it was the hydrologist opinion that
the water was not going into the well.
Mike Heiligenstien commended the Council for their efforts in minimizing the
water situation and having open communications with the citizens. He further stated
he felt the surcharge was a good idea.
Ruth Stifflemire stated she was "very much against" the City 'issuing any more
swimming pool permits.
Hank Taylor again addressed the Council saying, "Growth should be controlled.
Let's grow at a'rate with sufficient utilities."
Ted Williams asked ''for an explanation of the Phases of the Draught Water
Management Plan! Mayor Tonn went over the Plan. He went on to say the Council was
interested in ,having an'adequate supply of water and a plan with flexibility. The
surcharge was conceive& not to penalize or generaterevenue but to encourage water
conservation. Williams stated that the people on set or limited incomes would be hit
the hardest if the surcharge was implemented'. "Conservation is great but I'm against
the surcharge. Conservation can be achieved without the charges. Have we lost faith in
our citizens?
Gail Braden asked how long citizens would have to dig a private
well before the ordinance prohibiting such would be in effect. Mayor Tann explained 3
that the proposed ordinance would not prohibit the drilling of a private well but
would require a'permit to do so along with specifications from Water Resources. "We
would look to those who'have wells to conform irrespective of the source, which is
the same. Mayor Tonn concluded.
One citizen asked how the administration notified citizens concerning these.
matters when may people did not; take the local paper. Bennett explained that all the
July 24, 1980
the Austin TV channels as well as the Austin paper is in daily contact with City
staff. Also, cable channel 32 is being used as a public information channel.
Charles Lockett, John Redden, Carl Shelling, Dale Ricklefs, Phil Scott and
Joyce Stark all voiced their concern of the proposed surcharge and their opposition
of same.

Councilman Howell thanked all those present for attending. He encouraged citizens
to "keep coming and tell us how you feel."

9C. Consider an ordinance regulating the drilling of private water wells
inside the Round Rock city limits. (First Reading) Mayor Tonn read the ordinance
in it's entirety. A copy of the entire ordinance isattached as a part of these
minutes.
Private wells drilled into the Edwards aquifer are a possible source of
contamination of the City's water supply. The proposed ordinance will insure that
such wells are constructed in such a manner that aquifer contamination will not
occur. The sanitary provisions in the ordinance are much the same as the requirements
of the State Health Department for the drilling of wells for public water supplies.
Councilman Baker asked if the phrase "firm or corporation" should be inserted
under Sections A(l) and A(2) on page 1 of the ordinance. City Attorney Sheets said
that it would be okay to add the phrase. Also strick the phrase "a public drinking
water supply" from Section C(l) on page 1 of the ordinance and "for public use" from
Section E (2) on page 2.
Councilman Robinson moved to adopt the ordinance with the changes discussed.

THROUGH EMINENT DOMAIN PROCEEDINGS CERTAIN PROPERTY FOR A PUBLIC
UTILITY EASEMENT.
Mayor Tonn went over the staff recommendation as follows:
The death of Carl Burnette ended negotiations for an easement for
a 12" water main to connect the 2 wells now being drilledto the
Highway 81 north standpipe! This easement has been under nego-
tiation since April. It is very possible that this easement can
be obtained from Mr. Burnette'Is estate without eminent domain. The
project is under contract, and the time element suggests that the
ordinance be passed in case the easement cannot be obtained otherwise.

CITY MANAGER'S REPORT AND COUNCIL COMMENTS:
Bob Bennett introduced the new head librarian, Dale Ricklefs. Mrs. Ricklefs
gave a little of her background and then went over the new hours of library operation.
Bennett asked Council authorization to hire a full-time janitor. If equipment
has to be purchased it would be a long-range investment with initial expenditures
being small. Council voiced no objections.
Bennett went over the results of the budget questionnaire. Mayor Tonn
requested that the report be brought back when the Council considers the budget.
Councilman Robinson stated the City staff might review the no watering of trees
in City parks policy since there is a "vested interest" in the trees.

Lee. Absent: Councilman Lawrence Hester. Also present:

�r financinq alternatives and timetables for surface water
! City of Round Rock. Bob Bennett presented the following staff
recommendation to the Council: 1) that the Council pursue the North Fork project
in order to get water toRound Rock by the summer of 1982; 2) that the Council
call an election for a $10 million bond issue; and 3) that the Council authorize
Haynie & Kallman to proceed with the engineering plans immediately.
Steve Kallman reported that it will take approximately 12 years to get the
North Fork water on line. So that the project can be completed more quickly,
Kallman said he plans to break up the line contract into several contracts.
Kallman presented two alternative routes for the pipeline: a straight line running
diagonally from the North Fork reservoir to a site on IH 35 near the Westinghouse
Plant, or a line I south of the reservoir to connect with easements near Brushy I Creek,
then turning eastward at the proposed FM 1431, and heading toward Westinghouse.
Although the engineering is sound for either alternative, the second route would
cost about $500,000 more, but would enable the City to generate revenue by selling
water to serve the west area.
Bill Harrison of the First Southwest Company presented two debt repayment
schedules for the $10 million proposed general obligation system bond: one based
on the Water Development Board buying the $10 million and one based on the Board
buying $5 million and the City selling the remaining $5 million. Harrison said
the City can probably get half or more of its financing from the Board by demon-
strating a hardship. The City can demonstrate as a hardship if it issues the
$10 million in bonds its debt ration which will rise from 4% to 9%. Harrison
August 7, 1980
emphasized that a general obligation system bond can be repaid through ad valorem
taxes and water/sewer revenue. An advantage of financing through the Water
Development Board is a lower interest rate than that on municipal bonds. Another
advantage of financing through the Board is that the City can call bonds anytime
and issue revenue bonds.
Mayor'Tonn asked Harrison to submit on paper the advantage on the City
creating a Water Authority next year to assume this debt responsibility. Several
councilmen noted that the North Fork project will cause a lean CIP the next couple
of years.
Harrison noted that this is a workable, feasible program and recommended
that the Council hold an election for the bonds and that he be directed to make
application to the Water Development Board for the full $10 million. He pre-
dicted the earliest the Board could review the application would be October or
maybe November.
It was the consensus of the Council -that a bond sale would be the best way
to proceed with the North Fork project. Mayor Tonn directed the staff to put on
the August 14th agenda a call for the $10 million bond issue, to develop figures
concerning alternative funding, and to compare area cities concerning their
building permit charges and fees.
Bennett announced that the CIP will be delayed getting to the Council
because he would like to send it back down to the Planning and Zoning Commission
for its review based on tonight's Council action concerning the North Fork project.
There being no further business before the Council, the meeting was
adjourned at 8:35 p.m.

OLD BUSINESS:
10A. Consider a report from staff on the FmHA loan application. Bennett told
the Council that the FmHA will work with the City on the loan. The loan can be used
for refinancing, financing a portion of the project to acquire surface water and they
will allow the debt to be "transfered".
10B. Consider a report from the Finance Department. Sam Huey gave'a general
overview of the finance department. Huey, continued by going over the City's financial
condition and the monthly budget report. Mayor Tonn commended Huey on a job well done.
The Council askedthat a report be given by the fire department and police department
at the next meeting.
NEW BUSINESS:
11A. Consider a report from the Director of Public Works on floridation. Chris Gard
went over the following reasons he is opposed to floridation of the Round Rock water
supply:
1. 1 do not consider a public water supply a vehicle for administering
drugs or medicine. Floride today; what tomorrow?
2. Floridation presently could be accomplished at one point in the Round
Rock water system. HOwever, as the system grows with additional wells pumping
into the distribution system at different locations and with the proposed
surface water supply, multiple injection points will be required. This would be
a very awkward operation, and we do not have the staff to adequately perform
such an operation.
August 14, 1980 '
3. The floride chemicals are deadly poison in concentrations greater
than those applied to drinking water. There have been instances where feeding
machines admitted far more floride to the water than intended. This is a
potential hazard.
4. Fluoridation for a well supply requires the use of solution feeders
(Dry feeders can be used at the surface water treatment plant. The most
feasible source of fluoride for solution feeders in this type of system is
fluosilicic acid, a highly corrosive material which must be stored in rubber
or plastic containers. There is a serious handling problem and a potential
hazard to personnel.
5. Any fluoridation of a public water supply by the addition of small
amounts of highly toxic chemicals requires constant monitoring and stringent
laboratory control. The City of Round Rock does not have the personnel for
such monitoring or the laboratory facilities for such control.
Councilman Hester stated that he agreed with Gard. "The citizens main pro-
blem is diet not water," Hester concluded.
Councilman Baker asked if other citys are actually involved in implementing
a floride program. Gard stated he did not know but would obtain the information.
Mayor Tonn stated he was advised to administer floride drops to his child
because of the low floride content in Round Rock water.
Mayor Tonn asked staff to do additional research through other cities and
then place the item back on the agenda.
Councilwoman Lee stated her main objection was that if floride was put in
the City water the right to chose whether a citizen wanted the drug or not would
be removed. Also, what type of affects on the citizens would the floride have over
a long period of time.
Councilman Howell stated he felt that the voters should have the choice
whether or not they wanted floride in the water.

signals in the school zones are not working and repair should be made. Councilman
Hester gave a brief outline of what the City has done up to this point concerning
traffic safety.
CITIZENS COMMUNICATIONS:
R. W. Tagge, Oakridge Drive, addressed the Council concerning the upcoming bond
election. Tagge stated eventhough there has been a "lack of information, we must
support the bond election on September 6th." The Council was informed of an
independent survey done by Tagge and a group of his neighbors. They were told by
a hydrologist that surface water was definitely needed. Tagge asked that the Council
consider "drilling one or more ground water well(s) to provide more water in the
interium" of acquiring surface water. Tagge again stressed the "lack of communication"
between the citizens and the "Council and staff".
Both Mayor Tonn and Councilman Robinson stated their awarness of the "com-
munication problem." Councilman Robinson told the audience of an "information
session" concerning the bond election to be held Wednesday, September 3rd,
sponsored by the Jaycees.
Tagge told the Council that he had conversed with Dr. Hubert Grub, hydrologist
with the Texas Department of Water Resources, concerning Round Rock's "water
situation." Dr. Grub's card was given to Mayor Tonn for future reference.
M. L. Gorde� 2106 Oakridge Drive, asked "two things" of the Council: 1)
reconsider the bond proposal and give the voters a choice to dicide on the $10,000,000
proposition as presented or the $10,000,000 proposition and stopping all building until
the surface water becomes available and 2) consider paying part of the cost of sur-
face water acquisition "with on-going water revenues." Gorde then asked why "it
takes so long to get a well on line." Gorde continued by saying the hydrologist
he contacted stated it could be done "in a week's time".
Ted Metzler, 602 Limerock, said he and the "people I represent firmly,
strongly support this bond election." Metzler continued by saying the Council "should
address some type of controlled building situation until we have adequate water
capacity." According to Metzler the "pay -back" of the bonds should be "totally or
primarily out of taxes. It is a simple matter of economics." Metzler also
suggested a "considerable increase" of tapping fees be made.
305 Vista resident, Barney Koepp, stated, "only so much (water) can be taken
out of the aquifer and that's it. You can drill all the wells you want to but you
won't get anymore water." Koepp asked the Council to "curtail" growth until plenty
of water can be acquired for the present citiznes. "The bond issue needs to pass
but let's do something in the meantime."
August 28, 1980
William W. Woodside was the next citizen to speak to the Council. Woodside
voiced his support of the bond election but had questions that needed answers.
He asked 1) where 'exactly will the pipe be going and 2) who can tap into it. Wood-
side, a professional public relations man, stated, "communications lack in this
community. You need to hire a professional PR person."
Mayor Tonn stated the Council would address the questions voiced during the
"New Business" portion of the meeting.
Aubrey Lewis, seven year resident of 402 Lake Creek Drive, asked the Council
for some assurance that the building ,would "at least slow down." Lewis also asked
for substantial increases in tap fees those being an additional $500 water tap
fee for residences and an additional '$1,000 water tap fee for businesses.
Ted Metzler said he and his "group" would encourage fees of $1,500 to $2,000.
APPOINTMENTS None

CITIZENS COMMUNICATIONS':
Mayor Tonn explained the reasons behind the proposed bee ordinance stating
that one child had been stung repeatedly at the Round Rock Middle School. The
Mayor went on to say he had included the item on the agenda so information could
be ascertained concerning the bee' and the keeping of same.
September 25, 1980
Barney Koepp, 305 Vista, addressed the Council expressing his objections
to regulating bee hives within Round Rock. Koepp, a beekeeper since 1974,
stated he had never had any complaints from his neighbors about his bees.
Koepp then introduced Al Kinsor, President of the Travis County Beekeepers
Association, and Bob Sullivan, a beekeeper who lectures to school ages children
on bees.
Al Kinsor, 1201 W. Riverside Drive, Austin, said he had been keeping bees
for 15 years and runs a beekeepers supply store. Kinsor explained that bees
are "accused but not necessarily the problem; nine out of ten stings are by
another insect but bees are blamed." Kinsor went on to say, "Honey bees are
a non-agressive insect'i:and do not attack unless provolked". "Honey bees are
the best pollunators there are," Kinsor added.
Mayor Tonn asked if density might be the problem. Kinsor said that the
"number of colonies in one area could make a difference" because of the dry
weather the area has experienced. Kinsor went on to say there are tests that
can be run to find out a persons "sensativity" to bee stings and a series of
injections to reduce a persons sensativity to the sting.
Mayor Tonn asked Kinsor if he would be willing to work with the City to
see what type of bees are at the middle school and if they are, in fact, domestic
bees share his thoughts on density with the Council. Kinsor agreed. Mayor Tonn
stated another possibility would then be to regulate the number of colonies per
residence rather than prohibiting beekeeping completely.
Bob Sullivan, 806 E. Applegate Drive, Austin, told the Council he has 21
colonies for honey production and 5 observation hives. Sullivan offered his
lecturing services and observation hives to the Round Rock schools in order
to inform and reduce fear concerning bees. Sullivan said one way to determine if
a sting is that of a bee is "a bee always leaves a barred stinger and then dies."
He also stated that bees are attracted to the odor of fear.
Koepp spoke out saying that he felt the child in question should get the
proper immunization treatments because "I don't think there's a density problem
on Brushy Creek."
Milton Krienke, 210 Vista, a neighbor of Koepp, asked, "How can you tell a
City bee from a country bee?" He, also, suggested the child be "desensatized to
stings."
Terry McKenna, 1003 Aqualine Cove, said his daughter was the child every-
one referred to. "She is not harassing the bees," stated McKenna. McKenna con-
cluded by saying, "To us this situation is a hazard. She is always in the same
area when she gets stung."
September 25 1980
Rigsby Kavanaugh, 507 Lee Street; said his property abutts Berkman Elementary.
Kavanaugh said he checked with the school, the police department and the health
department and none had any records of bee complaints.
There were no further comments on the bee situation.
R. W. Tagge, 2101 Oakridge Drive', encouraged the Council to formulate some
system whereby lawns can be watered and prepared for the winter months. Tagge
made one statement concerning bees. "If you limit honey bees, we'll all be
sorry.
APPOINTMENTS' None.
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
6A. Consider public testimony concerning a request to rezone 6.523 acres
out of the Jacob M Harrell Survey from "1-2" Heavy Industrial District and "R-1"
Single-family Residential District to'"B-2" Local Business District '(Delashaw/
Miller).
The staff presentation was made by Paul Gambrel. This tract had been before
the Commissilon and Council in August of 1979. At that time the rezoning request
was denied because of traffic problems in the area, specifically, the intersection
of Lake Creek Drive and Highway 620. A traffic signal is now in place at that
intersection and the reconstruction of FM 620 completed. Commission recommended
a "B-1" zoning for the entire 6.523 acres,
Rowena Stone, 300 Briarwood and an adjacent property owner,spoke on be-
half of over 200 residents in opposition to,the 'request zoning change. Stone
then presented a petition that had previously been given to the ;Planning and
Zoning Commission stating opposition to the change (a copy of said petition is
made a part of these minutes as an attachment). Mrs. Stone then went over
statistics, Icompiled ';by herself, as to the number of vehicle trips occuring at
peak periods of the day presently and the impact on those ,trips if a shopping
center was established on the subject tract. Stone stated ;the situation is
"hazardous at best now but a death-trap if traffic is increased." Stone con-
tended that our ,most valuable natural resource is "human ,Life" ;and that the
Council is charged with protecting the health, safety, morals and general wel-
fare of the citizens'. Stone then went over portions of the City's Zoning Or-
dinance and traffic code. She then went over permisslable uses in the "B-2"
and "B-'1" zones. Stone concluded by saying if the zgning request of the subject
tract should pass, an ordinance prohibiting' business (across from a school should
be considered.
Jim Delashaw, partowner of the subject tract, made a presentation in favor
r
of the zoning change. Delashaw stated the tract is surrounded by hih inten-

would be just another level of government to deal with to get our own money back.
Councilman Howell stated he would like to try to get away from "having to give

be one opportunity to get our money back and "doesn't create that much addi-

10B. Consider a report on the operations of the sewer treatment plant. Smith
Securities is preparing the cost of a system that will monitor the power at the
sewer plant and water levels in the water tanks. An alarm would set off at the
police station if there was a problem. Auxillary power is being looked into by
the City engineers. Once we know what size generator is needed we can begin
searching for one. We have moved a person from water maintenance to the sewer
plant and now have 8 hour a day, 7 day a week supervision at the plant.
10C. Consider a report from the North Fork Oversight Committee. Council-
woman Lee, Chairman of the Committee, told the Council of two meetings the Committee
has had. The first meeting was organizational. At the second a Haynie and Kallman
representative brought the committee up to date on the Project. Hopefully, the
design phase will be complete in December. The Committee is currently working on
financing and Councilman Howell is Secretary for the group.

PRESENTATION:
Consider a presentation by Dr. Clarence Skrovan of the Williamson County
Health Department. Dr. Clarence Skrovan, director of the Williamson County
Health Department, told the Council he was both "surprised and disappointed" at
the action the Council took during the budget process of cutting funds to the
Health Department. Skrovan stated he respected the concerns and wishes of the
Council but was pleading for time to work out the money situation with other
county agencies. Various formulas have been tried over the years in order to
make health department funding distribution agreeable to all agencies concerned.
Skrovan asked that the Council "come up with a figure to your liking" and some
board be appointed to resolve issues among the towns concerning funding." It
was stressed by Skrovan that he could adjust to a change over a years time but
there would be a definite "decrease in services and cut in personnel" with the
decrease in funding.
Mayor Tonn asked that this item be included on the next regular agenda in
the form of a budget adjustment.

allow civic groups use of the parks when they needed to do so. Councilman Robinson
suggested that the ordinance be read on the first reading and Mr. Sheets bring back
an ordinance with the so stated amendments at the next regular meeting. Mayor
Tonn then suggested that a Section C be added to the ordinance which would read
"Any exceptions to the requirements of this ordinance are authorized only by
Council approval." Steve Sheets stated that the suggestion by Mayor Tonn would be
sufficient unless the Council desired to spell -out specific exceptions. Councilman
Howell and Councilman Baker both agreed that they felt the hours should be adjusted
to read 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Monday through Sunday. Councilman Howell stated
he suggested the time change so that no handicaps would be made on City programs
or civic groups.
Councilman Hester moved that the following amendment be made: 1) the hours
changed to 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Monday through Sunday and 2) that a new sentence

CITY MANAGER'S REPORT AND COUNCIL COMMENTS:
Staff suggested Family Night be held downtown the second Friday of December.
This is the traditional place and time for this event. Staff has been working
with the community civic clubs on this event and it should be very good this year.

is being done on property under the elevated tank to determine what belongs to the
City. This site has been suggested by the Historic Commission. Bill Todd has been

A 6 foot high cedar fence, 08��feet from the existing chainlink fence at the
sewer plant is recommended as the best solution to the fence problem at the plant.
Fence experts say the fence will last longer and be easier to maintain by placing
it 80 feet from the existing fence. The proposed cedar fence would be 20 feet from
the new drying 'beds. Staff and Council discussed the maintenance problems between
the two fences.'
Bennett stated that Water Development Fund Staff recommended the City be loaned
$6,000,000.00 rather than the requested $10,000,000.00.
The new Texas Municipal Report was included in Council packets.
Mayor Tonn requested that the sale of the portable library building be placed on
a subsequent agenda so the disposition can be made soon.

In response to a question from Councilman Baker, Reid explained table 14 which was
an analysis of projected revenues, expenses and debt service with recommended sewer
rates.
Mayor Tonn stated he was pleased with the progress made and the study was the "kind
of long range plan we needed." The Mayor then asked that items be addresssed in the final
draft of the report, those being 1) Four water rates schedules to cover a) 100% revenue
supported; b) 10% of debt service on $10,000,000 Lake Georgetown Project; c) 20% of debt
service on $10,000,000 Lake Georgetown Project and d) 30% of debt service on $10,000,000
Lake Georgetown Project.
The Council then discussed the progressive rate structure vs. a flat rate structure
and agreed the progressive rate structure to be the best approach. It was also agreed
that 20,000 gallons and 75,000 gallons be used as breaking points rather than the pro-
posed 15,000 gallons and 100,000 gallons.
The Council requested the final report be made December 11th at the regular meeting.
.3B. Consider discussion with City consultant Jack Hopper concerning the Lone Star
Gas Company rate increase request. Jack Hopper explained how he analyzed the Lone Star
rate increase request. Hopper stated, "Lone Star Gas says they are asking for a 16%
increase but in reality they are asking for a 27% increase." He went on -to say that
Lone Star Gas Company had not provided all data that was requested. He concluded by
stating, "I am suggesting you give Lone Star Gas $40,762.00. 1 feel if you went to the
Railroad Commission they would give $51,480.1'

duced Jan McCoristan, Director of Community Development -West for Lone Star Gas. Ms.
McCoristan went over the summary of revenues, expenses and income with present and alternate
rates. She informed the Council that "other cities are subsidizing Round Rock's 'Gas
system at present'," She went on to say that the requested application' for increase was
not trying to "re-coop"lost funds but "just trying, to get on an even basis."' McCoristan
advised the Council that the City's hired rate consultant, Jack Hopper, had not used correct
figures and had also misfi.gured in one specific instance'. Hopper, McCoristan said, had
"not taken the weather into any consideration whatsoever and he did not include any ad-
justment for annualization of service charges already in effect.

Councilman Hester said since the Council had "spent tax payers money
to hire a professional to give us advice, I feel we should go along with his
recommendation."
Councilman Baker said he was "incline to split the difference between wha
the TRC would allow and what their (Lone Star Gas) request is?"
Mayor Tonn stated he felt an 8% increase would be fair. He went on to sa,
"how the increase in revenues are derived doesn't matter as long as the bottom
line is about 8%."
City Attorney Steve Sheets stated that Lone Star Gas has provided an ordi
nance. He suggested the Council come up with a reasonable rate increase and i
Lone Star Gas to come back with a schedule to effectuate,that increase.
Sam Huey suggested the Council give Lone Star Gas "the dollar amount and
them back into the rate." Huey continued by saying, "You can give them a per-
centage but it would probably be substantially higher than the dollar amount
depending on whose figures were used."
December 11, 1980
MOTION: Mayor Tonn moved to instruct City staff to work with Lone Star Gas
to derive a rate schedule that will allow up to an 8% increase with a dollar
figure not to exceed $45,000.00 in total increase. The motion was seconded by

4A. Consider a water and sewer rate study done by Freese and Nichols. The
presentation was made by Bob Bennett. There was a lengthy discussion concerning
current and proposed water and sewer rates. There is a need to make the sewer system
self-supporting since it will be financed through grant funds rather than revenue.
It was suggested that progressive users pay a bigger rate. Councilman Robinson said
that he has heard from patrons this week that they had rather see a tax increase than
water rate increase because they "can get some back on taxes." It was the consensus
of the Council that a progressive rate structure will be fairer.
There was also discussion concerning water and sewer service fees. Bennett
explained the difference between water and sewer service fees and water and sewer taps.
December 0, 1980
Bennett also explained building, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical fees. There
was discussion of comparison of permit fees and plat development fees with other cities.
The Council disc'ssed raising the plumbing inspection fee charged to subdivisions lo-
cated outside the city limits in order to make them pay their fair share. The City
Attorney was asked to research the legal options of the City charging a service fee
to development o tside the 'city limits.
Mayor Tonn' rote on the board the following options for the Staff to research:
Water ate Options:

ROLL CALL: Present: Mayor Larry Tonn, Mayor Pro -tem Mike Robinson, Councilman
Lawrence "Hank" Hester, Councilman Graham Howell, Councilman Pete Correa, Councilman
Joe M. Baker, and Councilwoman Trudy L. Lee. Also Present: City Manager Bob Bennett,
Assistant City Manager Sam Huey and City Attorney Steve Sheets.
WORK SESSION:
3A. Consider discussion of a proposed sewer rate increase. Mayor Tonn stated
that the agenda item should have included the discussion of water rates.
Bob Bennett made the staff presentation. A comparison of permit fees and plat
development fees with other cities was then discussed. The Council agreed that to
increase service fees "will have little affect on the rates." The following sewer
rates were proposed for Council consideration.

Mayor Tonn, Councilman Robinson and Councilman Howell felt Alternative 3 to be the
most feasible. Councilman Hester said he favored Alternative 3 with a $300 service fee
rather than the $175 as presented. Councilman Howell stated "our service fees are high
enough, if we raise them anymore we will hinder building." Mayor Tonn concluded the
discussion of sewer rates by saying "I don't think it wise to deter expanding our tax
base."

Mayor Tonn asked if the bid of Johnston Gibson Ford could be "reasonably justified"
since the bid difference was only $173 and Hawes GMC is located in Georgetown and Johnston
Gibson Ford in Round Rock thus making travel expense and time much less by "going with"
the local dealer. Councilman Baker said he felt the City might "jeopardize future
proposals" if the low bid was not excepted.
Councilman Hester questioned whether the vehicle was really needed. Councilman
Robinson responded by saying the truck was budgeted in the current budget and that he was
sure staff would not go out for bids unless the situation was warranted. The truck would
be placed in the water department for superintendent Fred Russell.
Councilman Howell asked if the current "mixed fleet of vehicles" presents a problem
with servicing and supplying of parts. Sam Huey stated it did in supplying several
different types of one part. Mayor Tonn asked staff to prepare an inventory of City
vehicles, their status and who specifically the vehicles are assigned to.

Bennett gave the staff presentation. One public hearing was held in the City
Manager's office. At that hearing it was requested that $2,000 be allocated for
street signs in Chisholm Valley Subdivision. Bennett stated that general operating
budget funds could be used to handle street signs. Other staff suggestions were
1) $26,000 - SSES sewer match; 2) $16,000 Police Cars; 3) $40,000 Painting Water
Towers; and 4) $10,000 Day Care Center. There were no citizen comments.
6B. Consider public testimony concerning the plan to zone Southwest Park "R-1"
Single-family Residential. Joe Vining gave the staff presentation. The subject
tract is a dedicated City Park which is about to be developed. For that reason
it is being considered for annexation at this time, The park is surrounded on
three sides by single-family development. The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommendation is for permanent zoning of "R-1" Single-family Residential District
in conformance with the General Plan.
There were no citizen comments.
6C. Consider public testimony concerning a proposed amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance to include "car -wash" in the authorized use list for the "B-1" General
Business District. Joe Vining gave the staff presentation which addressed the
specific recommendation of the Planning Commission which would include "car -wash"
in the authorized use list for the "B-1" General Business District.
Michael O'Neill, 805 Cactus, stated his disapproval of "this short-term
solution." He further stated that the Planning and Zoning "could hardly pass" the
recommendation. O'Neill also said that one Commission member made the state-
ment "We all but promised Mr. Michael Bennett his car -wash." If you pass this
ordinance you are doing it for only one individual." O'Neill concluded, "I
hope none of you promised Mr. Bennett anything."
Gary Smith, 2101 Tejas, said he feels this town "needs a first class car -wash."
He concluded by saying he felt "the people in Round Rock West would be very receptive
to a car wash."
Ruth Stifflemire and Ann Guthrie, Round Rock West residents, both said they
would like to have the convenience of a car -wash near their subdivision.
L.J. Smith, 710 Chisholm Valley Drive, told the Council this ordinance will
not only affect Michael Bennett's proposed car -wash but will open up the possibility
of one (car wash) being put in any "B-1" area.
Michael Bennett told the Council he had not been promised anything by any
Commission member. He also said he intends to put in a first class car wash with
ample parking.
Michael O'Neill asked the Council, "why don't you cool the car -wash for a
while and see if the zoning ordinanceis passed. We don't have a whole lot of
faith in you people."

OLD BUSINESS:
10A. Consider a report from the Health Services Committee. Marion Wells gave
the following report:
Your committee met on Tuesday, February 17th, 1981, with County Commissioner
Carl Lidell to discuss the county health services in relation to Round Rock's
growing health needs. Commissioner Lidell was extremely cooperative and interested
in helping to secure the expanded services and the possibility of obtaining a
building in Round Rock through county funds.
On Wednesday, February 18th, 1981, Graham Howell, Bob Bennett and I met
with Dr. Clarence Skrovan, County Health Director, and the city managers of
Georgetown and Taylor to discuss the city, county funding share for the Health
Department. After a discussion and review of the comparative services the unanimous

The Round Rock City Council met in work session Wednesday, March 11, 1981
at 6:00 P.M. in Council Chambers.
11 "w..ROLL CALL: Present: Mayor Larry Tonn, Mayor Pro -tem Mike Robinson,
Councilman Lawrence Hester, Councilman Graham Howell, Councilman Pete Correa,
Councilman Joe M. Baker, and Councilwoman Trudy L. Lee. Also Present: City
Manager Bob Bennett and Assistant City Manager Sam Huey.
WORK SESSION:
3A. Consider discussion of alternate sanitation collection systems. Councilman
Hester asked that Mr. Jim Payne, with Lo -Dal Systems, make a presentation to the Council
on his company's sanitation collection system. Payne presented a slide presentation.
Payne said the biggest cost in any conventional collection is the labor and then went
on to explain how his system would lower the labor costs.
Discussion then centered around the "carts" and how effective they are.
In concluding, Payne said, "When or if you make a change, you should do it all
at once."
3B. Consider discussion of alternate water rate structures.
3C. Consider discussion of present sewer rates and revenue received and impact
on citizens.
Councilman Robinson suggested that the sewer rates be based on the 3 months
(December, January and February) or the current months water rate, whichever is lower.
Sam Huey stated he had taken a random sample using that formula and 69% of the bills
would go down $2.50 to 3.00 each and 31% would go up about $2.00 each netting about
$84,000 loss based on the 3 months average and about $50,000 loss based on the
current months water usage.
Councilmembers and staff then discussed debt service requirements and 0 & M
costs.
Mayor Tonn stated that the "water fund has been subsidizing the sewer fund."
He said he felt service fees should be raised in order to compensate for the loss of
•revenue if the Council decides on a different rate structure that the one that
in now in effect.
Discussion was held on the meter replacement program.
Mayor Tonn presented the following sewer rate alternates:
* $5.00 minimum for 3,000 gallons
$1.00/1,000 gallonage over 3,000 based on
lower of current months water use
or
last years 5 months winter average
* Footnotes:
1) Step up meter replacement program
2) Continue to look at an alternative for dollars lost.
March 11, 1:981
Council asked if the money received from the last month's sewer bills 'could be
reimbursed and the proposed rate structure be retroactive. Staff stated if would
be very difficult with the current staff and a special program would have to be
written for that specific purpose.
Mayor Tonn asked, that three ordinances be prepared for the 'next regular meeting
(March 26th).The ordinances will be for water rates, sewer rates and service fees..
The Council decided that it would be best to leave the water rates as ',proposed
in the previous meeting except change the gallonage threshold from 15,000 to
20,000 making the structure as follows:
3,000 or less $4.00
3.000 to 20,000 $1.''00
20,000 to 775,000 $1.125
75,000 or more $1.50
Councilman Robinson asked staff to check into the iover '65 exemption for taxes.
3D. Consider discussion of allocations for revenue sharing period 12„ The
City will receive about $82,000 in revenue sharing funds. Staff presented the
following suggestions:
1) $26,000 - SSES study for the regional sewer plant; 2) $16,000 - police cars;
3) $40,000 - painting Tower Drive water tower and 4) ,$10,000 Day Care Contribution.
In a public hearing held in the City Manager's office the following recommendations
were made 1) $15,000;- to sue Doyle Hickerson; 2) $2,000 stop signs in 'Chisholm
Valley and 3) $15,000 — purchase of the portable library building.
Discussion was held on the money for the police cars. Funds will come from
periods 11 and 12.
Jack Harzke said he would check with tiie Health Department to see if the
Tower Drive water tower could be painted later in the year making the funds be taken
from the general fund rather than revenue sharing funds.
Mayor Tonn and Councilmembers all agreed the'SSES study was top priority.
3E Consider discussion of amendments to the 1080-81 budget. Bennett said
he would like to keep the budget amendment format "simple" with only a few 'line items
being shifted with other line items. Other' items' that will need consideration are the
reappraisal contract and the inspectors for the Lake Georgetown -water line 'project.
Bennett said staff will begin' the 1981.82 budget process in May with the
Council receiving the preliminary document by August 1st.
Councilman Robinson asked Sam Huey to check the City's"over 65 exemption"
policy.

SUBJECT: City Council Meeting, March 26, 1981
It is with mixed feelings that a prior committment with my family prevents
my being with you tonight.
There are several items on the agenda, however, that warrant my submitting
these comments to you which are to be made part of the minutes.
Gla+ar Dn+oc
Consistent with our recent work session, I believe that it is most appropriate
to NOT increase the rates for those customers using less than 20,000 gallons per month.
For those gallons used between 20,000 and 75,000 per month, I support the $1.25
charge. For those gallons used in excess of 75,000 per month, I support the $1.50
charge.
gnwno - Dn+nc
Consistent with our recent work session, I believed that the minimum needs to
remain at $5.00 for up to 3.000 gallons. For gallons in excess of 3,000, I believe
that the rate can be ldwered to. $1.00 per thousand.
Fees
F_ ._. In order to off set the loss of revenue to the City which will be caused by these
somewhat more conservative increase, it will be necessary to adjust the fee schedules
for new construction. I have worked with Staff in an attempt to develop a compre-
hensive fee schedule which will generate adequate revenue to off set the cost of
new growth. That alternative will be presented by the Staff. Many fees in Round
Rock are high and several months ago I questioned whether any should be adjusted.
However, since the implementation of the new sewer rates, it has become apparent that
alternative sources of revenues should be pursued. Revenue from new growth is such
an alternative. During the recent month, I have been asked by numerous citizens,
including bankers, insurance agents, lawyers, people who work in the construction
business to look to alternative sources of revenues to minimize water and sewer rate
increases.
n
I hope each of you have received similiar input and will vote accordingly.
People will continue to be attracted to our City (which will expand our tax base)
if we as a Council take care of those who are here today.
With Best Regards,
Larry L. Tonn
Mayor
City of Round Rock

to consult wiht staff concerning pending litigation pursuant to Art. 6353-17, Section
2(e) V.T.C.S."
RECESS INTO SPECIAL CALLED SESSION: 8:02 a.m.
OLD BUSINESS:
5A. Consider further discussion of bids received on the construction phase of the
Lake Georgetown Project.
Tim Haynie stated he had reviewed the bids on the water treatment plant and did not
approve the equipment included in the low bid from Red River Construction. Therefore,
the second low bidder, R.B. Butler, was being recommended to the Council for approval.
Mr. John King of Red River said he felt legally entitled to the award of the project.
He concluded by saying he waSnot notified of any special equipment requirements by the
engineers.
Haynie said he had not contacted any of the bidders but several of the bidders did
contact him. King went on to say the contract document gave "no official name of any
specific brand name equipment." Haynie then quoted a portion of the contract document
May 12, 1981
concerning the equipment. Haynie said he was not familiar with the clarifer equipment
or the filter equipment included in the ReD River bid.
Mayor Tonn asked that the item be defered until Thursday, May 14th. He then
asked Councilman Baker and Heiligenstein and Steve Sheets to review the 'situation
and make a recommendation.

Steve Kallman made thepresentation on water line improvements contracts no.
and no. 2. The two low bidders on contract no. 1 were 1) J.R. Hughes -$973,090!
and 2) Clouse Construction -$1,124,132. Contract no. 2 bids were 1) J.R. Hughes
1,038,675.80 and 2) Clouse Construction -$1,198,148.05, Both bidders put conditions
di'
their bids. J.R. Hughes stated that he (the contractor) "may tie contracts
1,2,3,4 together at the contractors option." Clouse gave the City the option. Kallman
stated he had checked our both contractors and they both "enjoy very good reputations."
Concern was voiced because J.R. Hughes had "left some money on the table" when
completing his bid. Mr. Hughes said he had left some figures out but would definitely
stand by his bid.
Councilman Robinson asked what length of delay would occur if the bonding
company had to be called in. Kallman said 60 to 90 days.
Mayor Tonn suggested the same committee appointed earlier in the meeting look also
into the water line improvements -contracts 1 and 2 bids and report back to the Council
May 14th.

stating the problem is caused by overflow parking from Berkman Elementary and C.D.
Fulkes Middle School and not from the construction workers at the schools. Cook stated
"I was told the problem at the high school and,this,problem would be taken care of
at the same time. The high school problem is now solved and I would like to be afforded
the same courtesy."
