CITIZENS COMMUNICATIONS:
Jack Harzke, Public Works Director, gave a presentation on the flood which
occured May 25-26 in Round Rock. The City resources said the storm was atleast
a 100 year storm. The majority of the flooding occured along Lake Creek Drive ,
In Round Rock West and about 20 homes in the Southeast corner of Chisholm Valley.
Damages exceed one half million dollars. The City has contacted the Small Business
Administration for assistance as well as disaster relief. The City is currently
clearing the culverts and low water crossings.
Mayor Tonn asked about the low water crq5sing on Deepwood Drive. Harzke
said perhaps sometype of detention system could be considered.
Councilman Heiligenstein expressed his concern that all accesses into the
first section of Round Rock West were blocked due to the flood. This left
those citizens without any emergency assistance at all.
Council and staff then discussed clearing Lake Creek of debris and willow
trees.
Mayor Tonn then asked what is needed in the CHisholm Valley area. Harzke
said he felt it necessary to "reinvestigate the entire drainage way all the way
May 28, 1981
to IH35." Harzke also stated the water came from the west in the Chisholm
Valley area.
Playor Tonn asked Councilman Heiligenstein and Councilman Baker to work with
Jack Harzke to "Facilitate a drainage design criteria ordinance." The recommenda-
tion is to be back at the next regular Council meeting.

Louise Nelson, 405 Lake Creek Circle, thanked the Police Department and
the City crews for their assistance during the flood. Mrs. Nelson expressed her
concern over the blocking of the Burnet Street crossing by the railroad. Mrs.
Nelson tol the Council that during the flood when the Burnet Sty at low water
crossing was flooded, the train blocked the railroad tracks completely cutting
off any means of access to or from the 28 families in the Lake Creek Circle area.
Mayor Tonn advised that the City will follow up by contacting the rail-
road and aksed Mrs'. Nelson or anyone in the Lake Creek Circle area to contact the_
P.D. when a train blocks the crossing longer than 5 minutes. Councilman Howell
advised Mrs. Nelson of a pending bill before the legislature concerning the
railroad.
Kent King, 506 Quail Creek, echoed Mrs. Nelson's concerns.
606 Lake Creek Drive resident, Susan Ness, thanked the Police Department
and Fire Department for thier help during the flood and the City crews for they
"quick clean-up." Ness expressed her concern over the condition of Lake Creek.
She asked the City to take immediate action in clearing the creek. She
concluded by saying, "Do not just talk, take action."
Clarence Born, 1405 Dragon Drive, said the Governor did request the President
to declare Round Rock a disaster area. Born then stated the City should take
the following steps: 1)clear the creek of willows right away; 2) replace all
the low water crossings and install flood gauges; and 3) enforce and update
frequently the flood plain ordinance.
May 28, 1981
John Guiling, 407 Lake Creek Drive, echoed Mr. Born's feelings concerning
clearing Lake Creek, replacing low water crossings and the flood plain ordinance.
He asked that "continued dialogue" be a reality with the flood victims.
Tom McDowell, 1504 Remuda Circle, thanked the Fire Department for their
assistance in the Chisholm Valley area. McDowell said the problem in Chisholm
Valley is "a man made problem." McDowell's main concern is a "detention dam."
Steve Cook, 305 W. Anderson, spoke about the parking problem on West Anderson
and urged the Council to pass the ordinance on second reading later in the meeting.
Mr. Cook said he asked for a 10 minute parking limit but shouldcompromise
for 20 minutes during school hours.
Austin resident Charlie Graves of 6811 Willamette spoke of his own experience
in the recent flood as well as previous experiences as an engineer.
Belinda Smith, 510 Yucca, six week Round Rock resident, said her house is
"sitting on top of a natural run-off channel." "You took away the natural
drainage but didn't put any alternate route for the water to go."
Chisholm Valley resident, Jake Johnson, said he went to "the last P&Z
meeting where our plea for a park in Chisholm Valley South and the inadequacy
of drainage fell on deaf ears." Johnson went on to say, "We have one big drainage
problem in Chisholm Valley which can not be cured by bringing in anew sub-
division." He asked the Council to send the plat back to P&Z for reconsideration.
Johnson concluded by saying, "You won't give us a park for our children to play
but please don't drown us."

during that time.

Middle School principal, both stated they felt the ordinance restricting

it was wrong because the Council can do something. He said that the flooding problem
is caused by structures built on Lake Crekk. Mr. Wood advised the City to build
bridges in place of the low-water crossings and to widen and deepen the creek. He
said that today he had been flooded for the second time, and he expects to see some
action by the City.
In response Mayor Pro -tem Robinson referred to the executive session on tonights
agenda concerning pending litigation as an indication that the Council is concerned
about the flooding that Round Rock citizens have experienced. In addition the City
has hired a private consulting firm to study the situation.
John M. Guiling of 407 Lake Creek Drive thanked Mayor Pro -tem Robinson, Council-
woman Lee, Councilman Baker and City Manager Bob Bennett for looking in on them after
the Memorial Day flooding, but he added that his house has been flooded again. He
expresses his opposition to low-water crossings and asked that they be removed
immediately and replaced with regular bridges. He suggested the need for a permanent
channel and water retention ponds as permanent solutions.
Dan Delleney of 1607 Sagebrush Drive said that his flooding problem concerns the drain•
age ditch behind his house. He expresses his opposition to the area presently being
considered by the City Council for annexation because more development in this area
will only cause more drainage problems.
Melinda Smith of 510 Yucca Drive said that her house has been flooded twice now.
She referred to a list of problems given to the City Manager after he had walked the
area in February of this year. She asked the Council why it had turned a "deaf ear"
to their problems.
Mayor Pro -tem Robinson stated that he could"not discuss these complaints because
the City is involved in litigation with Mrs. Smith.
RECESS INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION:
5A. Land Acquisition.
5B. Pending Litigation.
At 7:15 P.M. Mayor Pro -tem Robinson stated, "The Council will now adjourn into

his apology for misunderstandings. He explained that his concern was to prevent staff
members from being put in a position where they had to answer to the City Manager and
the Library Board. He added that he feels it is unfair to expect a staff member to
answer to two bodies; he feels staff should only answer to City Manager. Councilman
Baker agreed. Councilman Howell asked that the Library Board report to the Council

1AGER'S REPORT AND COUNCIL COMMENTS:
Councilman Baker
Councilwoman Lee
Mayor Pro -tem Robinson
Bob Bennett thanked the Round Rock Police Department, Public Works Department, and
Parks Department for the fantastic job they did concerning flooding conditions in
various parts of the City today. He stated that he feels they responded well to the
situation. He added that public works is planning a program to remove debris in Lake
Creek as soon as possible. The City does have an easement and will be working close
with homeowners. Also the City is prepared to bring in large -track vehicles if
necessary.
Bennett stated that the City was successfully defended by City Attorney Steve Sheets
in District Court concerning the new water treatment plant. The City is now in the
process of proceeding with the project.
Councilmen Howell and Heiligenstein reported that they have received four
outstanding proposals from auditors, including one Round Rock firm. They stated
that they are recommending the firm of Hood and Woolf. Because of the firm's
background, they feel that it will do a good job for the City. Sam Huey explained
standard set ups by M.F.O.A. Councilmen Howell and Heiligenstein also recommended
the Council appoint one, two, or three, members to work with Huey and the auditors
in order to keep them knowledgeable of what the Council wants. Councilman
June 11, 1981 2151
Howell noted that the auditors have assured the audit will be on time. Councilman
Heiligenstein stated that they looked particularly at the auditors background,
auditing experience and especially public auditing experience. Hood and Woolf
was the only firm which expressed in its proposal a desire to work with a committee.
Councilman Heiligenstein said they are interested in making the audit understandable.
He said they want a condensed version prior to the final report.'
Mayor Pro -tem Robinson requested a resolution on the next agenda to enter into
an agreement with Hood and Woolf.
Mayor Pro -tem Robinson requested Bob Bennett begin making press releases to open
communication, channels basically and because there have been some headlines recently
which have been based on hearsay and which have misquoted people.
Councilman Heiligenstein congratulated Steve Sheets concerning the recent law
suit. He noted that it is unfortunate that all taxpayers in the City have had to
pay for this law suit.
Councilwoman Lee asked if there has been any problem with contamination of our
water as a result of flooding. Bob Bennett replied that the water has already
been tested and there is no problem. Public Works Director Jack Harzke added that
Phil Marshall checks wells every day and is prepared to remedy situation immediately.
He said that he feels good about the system the City has of checking wells.
Mayor Pro -tem Robinson reported that the subcommittee has met concerning the
"Round Rock" and has asked Sharon Prete's committee to study the area. Prete said
the parks department is working on plans for a park, including such items as a hike and
bike trail. No timetable has been devised yet; at this time she is in the process
of getting the area surveyed. The time required should be at a maximum of two months.
An executive session was scheduled for Tuesday, June 16, 1981 at 7:30 a.m. to
discuss land acquisition. Mayor Pro -tem Robinson requested the City Manager devise an
agenda for a work session on the revised zoning ordinance and budget amendment.
Councilman Baker announced that the Citizen Advisory Commission will meet on
Wednesday, June 17, 1981 at 7:00 p.m.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:45 p.m.

RECESS TO EXECUTIVE SESSION TO DISCUSS LAND ACQUISITION:
At 7:31 a.m., Mayor Pro -tem Robinson stated, "The Council will now adjourn into
executive session to consult with staff concerning land acquisition pursuant to
Art. 6353-17, Section 2(e) V.T.C.S."
RECESS TO SPECIAL SESSION: The Council recessed into special session at 7:31 a.m.
Bob Bennett told the Council that staff had received a "Minute Order" from
the Texas Department of Highways and Public Transportation to improve the service
road from Highway 79 to the Gulf Station. This would be a 50-50 match, $175,000 from the
State and $175,000 from either the City or by special assessment of the affected
property owners. Steve Sheets and Bill Harrison are looking into the special
assessment aspect.
Councilman Baker questioned the financing of higher bridges over the now low
water crossings if Troy Ullman says the higher bridges are necessary. Bennett explained
the financing would ,have to be done through a bond election and then sale. Councilman
Heiligenstein said he would like to see all the drainage included in that election if
the City had to wait for an election. Mayor Pro -tem Robinson asked that a report
be given at the next Council meeting concerning this item. Bennett explained
that the staff should have much more information after the re-evaluation has been
completed.
Councilwoman Lee stated her frustration in seeing police and fire department
personnel risking their lives to try to save people who ignore barricades placed at the
low water crossings. She stated "it's not fair to the rest of the Community to tie
up numbers of personnel for one person who ignores safety. I feel they should be
fined." Council and staff then discussed setting up criteria for this type of situation.
Councilwoman Lee also suggested staff contact various cities that have some type of
policy on barricades and/or fines for those not adhereing to the rules.
Bob Bennett sated the staff was also looking into foot bridges.
Councilman Heiligenstein asked Steve Sheets what the total costs on the recent
law suit had cost the City. Sheets said as soon as all the figures were in he
would report back to the Council.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 8:04 a.m.

Councilwoman Lee stated that the Oversight Committee had reviewed the proposed
contract from TETCO and found it to be satisfactory. She also stated that the fees were
reasonable for the service to be provided. Councilman Howell said that the committee
had considered having City staff do the inspection work but that the proposal from TETCO
was the best solution to the inspection problem. Councilman Baker echoed that the fees
were in line with other engineering fees of about $35.00 per hour.
Mayor Tonn asked if the City would be duplicating services by hiring TETCO.
Councilwoman Lee said that no services would be duplicated. Jack Harzke will be the
chief professional responsible for the inspection process. Mayor Tonn questioned the
liability on the firm's part. Steve Sheets answered that it was not necessary for an
indemnafication clause to be included in the contract.
Mayor Tonn then asked if Haynie & Kallman could do the inspection work since it
was stated that the inspection process would be pretty routine as the inspector would

rather high. Steve Kallman responded by saying he has one inspector on his staff at the
present time with his workload being very heavy. Kallman went on to say that his firm
will do periodic inspections but not on a daily basis and that because of the magnitude
of the project he was in agreement with the Committee on retaining�TETCO. Councilman
Baker added that the City will have the benefit of testing as well as inspections from
TETCO; thus, meaning some savings because there would be "no loss in communications".
Jack Harzke concluded that it is not "abnormal for inspection fees to run 2% or a little
above the total amount of the project.

I feel pretty strongly about TETCO performing
Jerry Weathers, who will be the chief inspector for TETCO on the project, gave
a brief overview of his firm and his qualifications.
Councilman Robinson stated his concern that "nothing be made up in the ground" on
the project. Weathers assured the Council that his firm would work very closely with
Haynie and Kallman and Jack Harzke to insure a top notch project.

CITY MANAGER'S REPORT AND COUNCIL COMMENTS:
Bob Bennett said he would like to bring a G.O. and Revenue Bond proposal back to the
Council at the next meeting.
Bennett then explained that the Gattis School Road project is proceeding as planned.
Some of the parcels have been donated to the City.
Councilman Robinson requested a work session to discuss in more detail the
proposed zoning ordinance. The work session was set for 7:00 p.m., Tuesday, July 14th.
Council requested that staff bring back a tap fee proposal, especially for multi-
family, at the next regular Council meeting.
Councilman Baker then gave an overview of what has transpired concerning the flood
management study.
Jack Harzke told the Council that City crews would be clearing the creek as soon
as the water is low enough and that he will also be soliciting citizen participation on
private property.
Councilwoman Lee asked that the information from Tucson concerning low water crossings
be put on the work session agenda for the July 14th meeting.
Councilman Correa and the rest of the Council were brought up to date on weedy,lots,
brush pick-up and street signs by Bob Bennett.
Bennett told the Council that the new sewer plant would be ready within the next
couple of weeks. At that point the old plant will be remodeled and then put back into
service.
01a July 9, 1981
The Council was then informed, by Bennett, that the meter replacement program is
complete and that the City was able to account for 81% of the water pumped in the last
billing cycle. This is more than expected as most cities feel lucky with a 60%
accountability.
Councilman Heiligenstein asked staff to be prepared to address how the change in
State Annexation laws as of September 1st will affect the City.
Councilman Robinson congratulated Steve Sheets concerning the recent ruling in
favor of the City on the Hamilton Tract case. Sheets, at the request of Councilman
Heiligenstein, said that the last law suit against the City has cost the taxpayers
approximately $6,000.
Gilson Westbrook gave a brief update on the HELP program. As of this date, four
units have been completed.
Mayor Tonn asked that the City Manager organize the staff so that presentations
can be made by each department during the month of August right after the citizens
communications portion of the meeting.
Councilman Baker encouraged attendance at the CAC meeting to be held Wednesday,
July 15th.
Mayor Tonn requested that the members of various boards and commissions whose
terms have expired be contacted and invited to the next regular Council meeting so that
they may be recognized for their contributions to the City.

The Round Rock City Council met in work session Monday, July 13; 1981 in Council
Chambers at 7:00 P.M.
ROLL CALL: Present: Mayor Pro -tem Mike Robinson, Councilman Graham Howell,
Councilman Joe Baker and Councilwoman Trudy L. Lee. Absent were: Mayor Larry L.
Tonn, Councilman Mike Heiligenstein, and Councilman Pete Correa. Also present were
City Manager Bob Bennett, City Attorney Steve Sheets, Planning Director Paul Gambrel
and Public Works Director Jack Harzke.
WORK SESSION:
3A. Consider discussion of the proposed Zoning Ordinance and also the Subdivision
Ordinance. Council and staff reviewed the proposed zoning ordinance page by page
discussing various changes as well as additions. Those changes discussed were
July 13, 1981
1) advancement of a regional architectural theme; 2) improvements to the Interstate
Highway System in the Round Rock area; 3) connecting IH 35 with FM 1460 by extending
the proposed FM 3406 east as a major thoroughfare; 4) site plan review; 5) endeavor
to protect the regional sewage treatment plant site; 6) development review board
creation; 7) cluster housing concept; 8) screening; 9) lot lines and side yard
lines; and 10) building requirements for portable buildings.
A 5 minute recess was called.
Mayor Pro -tem Mike Robinson asked that item 3C. be considered at this point and
then further discussion of the revised zoning ordinance would continue.
3C. Consider discussion of a 1981-1982 Revenue and G.O. Bond program. This
program as explained by Tim Haynie, is a culmination of the 1979, 1980 and 1981 CIP's.
The priorities are as follows: 1) Lake Creek Interceptor; 2) Lake Creek Lift Station;
3) Brushy Creek Interceptor; 4) Onion Creek Interceptor; 5) Chisholm Valley Interceptor
and 6) Manhole Rehabilitation primarily in the Lake Creek Area. These designs are
based on a population of 50,000.
David Currington then went over the improvements as proposed for the water
system. 1) Water Line #1 - $105,000; 2) Water Line #2 - $25,000; 3) Water Line #3-
$63,000; 4) Water Line #4 - $27,000; 5) Water Line #5 - $31,000; 6) Water Line #6 -
$105,000 and 7) 2 meters on existing wells at Lake Creek Well Plant - $30,000. Both
the proposals for water and sewer are contingent upon a bond sale.
Bob Bennett told the Council that staff would like to have an immediate bond sale
and another one in December. All these bonds have been authorized in a previous
bond election, therefore another election will not be necessary.
Bob Bennett then made the following proposals for G.O. Bond improvements:
Wonder, Egger, & Fairlane ..........................$474,000.00
Total 1979 G.O.Bonds Sold ..........................$980,000.00
Remaining 1979 G.O. Money ..........................$506,000.00
Total Cost of Georgetown St. ($238,000.00)
Georgetown St. Bridge ($457,000.00.) &
Gattis School Rd. (340,500.00 - Includes
Southpark Addition) ........ ..................$1,035,500.00
Amount of Bond Money Needed to be Sold
(1,035,500.00 - $506,000.00) ...................$529,500.00
Remaining Voted Authorization ......................$570,000.00
Drainage (Flood - related) .........................$40,000.00
Ladder Truck .......................................$250,000.00
Grand Total of
Proposed Expenditures ..........................$820,000.00
54 July 13, 1981
Council discussed at length the Georgetown Street Bridge proposal. The proposal
as presented includes the removal of the old bridge and trusses., build a completely
new 2 lane bridge and put the old trusses on the new bridge. Putting the trusses
on the new bridge will cost approximately $60,000 and be for aesthetic purposes
only. Some of the Council voiced their concern over the $60,000 expenditure.
The Council agreed that the staff should proceed as quickly as possible to sell
the necessary bonds.
The Council resumeddiscussion of the revised zoning ordinance at this point in
the work session.
Paul Gambrel explained the rational between collasping zoning districts rather
than making more districts. Gambrel was asked by Council to take a closer look at the
parking requirements for some of the businesses so that businesses are not detered
from coming to Round Rock. The Council also asked Paul Gambrel to bring back a
proposal on temporary (portable) signs at the July 23rd Council meeting.
Councilman Howell requested a report on amertization of existing signs.
Gambrel explained the make up of the proposed development review board and
it's functions.
3B. Consider discussion of an ordinance regulating activity in streams during
flooding conditions. Bob Bennett told the Council staff would like to bring the
Council an ordinance making it illegal to cross a low water crossing and/or being
in a stream during flooding conditions. Flood gauges need to be put up and a
determination made at what point it will not be safe to cross a stream. Staff
will look into various types of flood gauges; one possibility mentioned was calor
coded. By putting together this type of ordinance, the City will have the authority
to do something when and if the situation arises. Council was of the consensus to
proceed.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 10.45 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

CITIZENS COMMUNICATIONS:
Mayor Tonn announced that NPC had withdrawn their rezoning request which were
items 7A and 10 A on the agenda.
Layne Ballard, resident of 1401 Abbey and Manager of Texas Power and Light Com-
pany, appeared before the Council to bring the Council up-to-date on the rate increase
request pending for T P & L. Ballard presented Mayor Tonn with a corporate bond which
will allow the rates as requested to go into effect and then when the PUC recommends.
Ballard explained that his company would have to appeal the decision to the PUC and
put up another bond.
Jack Garey, contractor on the 1980 street improvements, asked to speak to the
Council concerning "some allegations made in the paper." Mayor Tonn recognized
Mr. Garey and also informed him that "it is my intent to call a special called meet-
ing to make final payment to you because of substantial work done this week on the
project."
Garey told the Council that the dissatisfaction with his company's work in
February was acknowledged but that he knew nothing about the dissatisfaction at this
point in the project until he read it in the ROUND ROCK LEADER. Garey assured the
Council that he would take care of the "work product that is wrong." He went on to
say, "you owe me $38,000 plus $4,700 in damages for the delay the City initiated. I'm
not waiving anything and you don't have to waive anything."
Z) July 23, 1981
Mayor Tonn said the Council felt that $2,500 was not enough to take care of the
necessary clean-up behind the curbs and the manholes that had not been put in correctly.
The Mayor furtherstated the statements made at the previous Council meeting were "not
necessarily allegations but concerns on my part." Councilman Howell stated his concern
that the job be done correctly and finished before final payment and retainage is dis-
bursed.
Mr, Garey went over why the manholes on Egger Avenue were installed the way they
were and also why he had problems on Wonder Drive.
Guy Carpenter asked the Council to reject the zoning change request in Round Rock
West, Section 7B rather than allowing the request to be withdrawn. Mayor Tonn announced
that the City Attorney advised that it is the property owner's perogative to withdraw
the request and to make another request at a later time. Councilman Howell added that
it is not uncommon for property owners to withdraw their requests. Mayor Tonn called
a five minute recess to allow the City 'Attorney to formulate an official opinion.
After the recess Steve' Sheets went over the two basic types of zoning procedures
and then reiterated his previous opinion that the request should be honored.
Guy Carpenter questioned who the landowner is. Gambrel stated, "Glenn Neans with
NPC acting as his agent." Carpenter then asked if that was legal (using an agent).
Carpenter continued by saying, "I feel 'something is up. Something fishy, and sneaky
is being put over on us." Councilman Neiligenstein said he felt Mr. Carpenter's
remarks were "out of order and that all the necessary public hearing notices were
published in the ROUND ROCK LEADER. Councilwoman Lee said she would have voted against
the request if it had not been withdrawn and when and if the request was made again
"something other than legal' notices be put in the paper."
Mike Johnson, Round Rock West resident, questioned the notices. Paul Gambrel stated
there are two types of notices: 1) a notice of public hearing before the City Council
which has to appear in the 'newspaper 15 days prior to the hearing date (also a location
map is included is included although not required by law; and 2) a notice of public
hearing before the Planning and Zoning' Commission which has to appear in the newspaper
10 days prior to the hearing date and, also, property owners within 200 'feet are notified
by certified mail (which is required by State Law.)
Tim Mathews, representative of NPC, said, "it is not our intent to do duplexes
and I'm speaking for NPC who did buy the land subject to zoning."
Another Round Rock West resident Sue McAthey asked what the property can be used
for. Under the present zoning only single-family residential.

Gilson Westbrook stated that both requests before the Council are in much need
of repair. One unit has 4 rooms with 10 occupants and the other unit has 6 rooms
with 6 occupants. Neither unit has a kitchen or plumbing facilities.
Mayor Tonn asked, "who assigns priorities?" Westbrook explained it was on a
first come first process basis. The Mayor said he felt it would be better to go in
and assess the need and then proceed with the most dire cases. Councilman Howell pointed
out that the City can't make the people get funds that don't want to since the money
is a loan and not just an award of money.
Westbrook said the City would be able to help about 10 families totaling the
$200,000 in CDBG funds. Councilman Howell requested the projected payback be brought
to the Council at the next meeting. Mayor Tonn also asked that HUD be written stating
concerns in various standards required by HUD.

Bob Bennett gave the staff' recommendation of $5.00 to license a dog, $10.00 for each

of $3.00 for each infertile dog and $10.00 for each fertile dog as a license fee was
suggested. Mayor Tonn said he would encourage the license fee to be kept low and the
impoundment fees high. He then suggested a $5.00 license fee, $15.00 impoundment fee
and $7.00 for each day the dog is in the pound.

OLD BUSINESS:
11A. Consider a staff report on the status of delinquent taxes.
Sam Huey, Assistant
City Manager/ Finance Director, stated that a list of the top 24 delinquent taxpayers
was included in the packet for the Council's review. The list was as of July 10,'1981.
93% of the levy are the taxes that have been collected as of this date. The majority
of the uncollected delinquent taxes are 1979 and 1980.
Steve Sheets went over the procedure he follows to collect the delinquent taxes.
The Council asked that staff prepare a progress report for the second meeting
in August.
11B. Consider a staff report on the portable sign ordinance. Mayor Tann read
the following staff statement:
As discussed in the City Council work session the Revised Zoning Ordinance is
being modified to include language which will expressly prohibit portable signs. At
present the sign standards contained in the Zoning Ordinance authorize only permanent
signs. However, there is no wording clearly stating that portable signs are prohibited.
Revision of Subsection D(2) will accomplish this. As will be recalled this same
approach was used for off premises signs.
Councilman Howell said he would like to see the standards go back through
the Planning Commission and also see an amertization schedule for all non -conforming
signs. The other Council members agreed.
11C. Consider a staff presentation on the firework's ordinance. Bob Bennett
explained the ordinance as contained in the packet was a culmination of the ideas from
the Council work session held previously. The Council asked that the ordinance be
placed on the August',13th agenda for action.
11D. Consider a staff presentation on tap fee schedules. Bennett said the study
was not complete but would be presented at the first meeting in August.
11E. Consider a staff presentation on how the changes in the State Annexation
Law as of September 1st will effect the City of Round Rock. Earlier this year the
Texas Legislature passed House Bill 1952, a substantial amendment of the Municipal
Annexation Act of 1963. This new law requires at least two public hearings for
proposed unilateral (involuntary) annexations, at least one of which must be held
July 23, 1981
in the area proposed for annexation.
Prior to the public hearings the annexing city must prepare a service plan
which would result in provision of administrative and operating and maintenance
services to the annexed area within sixty days of the annexation. Also according
to the required plan the annexing city must provide for the purchase or beginning
of construction of capital improvements required to serve the annexed area within
two and one-halfy ears after the effective date of the annexation.
The proposed service plan "may be amended through negotiations at (the) hearings."
Thereafter the service plan "shall be attached to the ordinance annexing the area and
approved as part of that ordinance," and "the plan shall be construed as a contractual
obligation." Provisions are also established for disannexation proceedings where
a city fails to implement the service plan.
In the opinion of the Planning Staff, HB 1952 is strictly a big city annexation
law. It is probably a well-intentioned piece of legislation, but it misses the mark
by a considerable distance. It is fraught with loopholes and stumbling blocks, and,
because of its unwieldy logistical requirements and all of the red tape it generates,
it will be seldom used by small cities. Fortunately annexation by petition of the
property owner is unaffected by HB 1952.
The staff advised that, after the annexations in August, 280 acres will remain
to be involuntarily annexed this calendar year. Also, this legislation was sponsored
by TML.
NEW BUSINESS: None
CITY MANAGER'S REPORT AND COUNCIL COMMENTS:
Bob Bennett told the Council, "hopefully, the budget will be to the Council
August 1st. Last year's tax base was $170,000,000; preliminary figures from the
equalization program show $325,000;000 for this year.
Councilman Baker, Chairman of the Citizens Advisory Commission, stated that
the Commission has recommended that the City of Round Rock retain the existing
municipal wastewater treatment facility in conjunction with the construction of a
new treatment plant to be located at the confluence of the Brushy and Chandler Creeks.
Councilman Howell asked staff to contact the Highway Department and ascertain
the feasibility of a light at Georgetown and HWY 79. Also the traffic needs to be
slowed down. Councilman Howell also asked the staff to check into a left turn lane
off of 81 (Mays) east onto Hwy. 79. Mayor Tonn asked the Police Department to
be "visible" on Hwy. 79.
A special called meeting was set for Tuesday, July 28th at 5:30 p.m. to
consider disbursement to Jack Garey. Councilman Baker suggested any Councilmember
with a problem concerning the project contact Jack Harzke so he can compile a
"punch list" for Mr. Garey. Mayor Tann asked for a report on the "cost effectiveness
174 July 23, 1981
of repairing the manholes on Egger Avenue."
Mayor Tonn; thanked all ',those employees who helped with Frontier Days.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 9:55 P.M.

Kallman, Councilman Joe Baker and Harzke unanimously agreed that "any fix of the
manholes on Egger Avenue would be worse than the way they are now." Harzke further
stated that he met with Garey on July 27th and though he had not personally checked

this meeting. Harzke stated that the disbursement due Mr. Garey was $38,495.19 and

ute an agreement with
the Mis-.puri-Pacific Railroad for a sanitary sewer easement to the St. Williams Sub -
division. Mayor Tonn read the resolution as follows:
I

Jack Garey asked to speak to the Council concerning his disbursement. Garey
stated he felt he was entitled to $4,700 in damages for extra costs incurred on Egger
Avenue. Garey said he had written a letter to the engineers concerning his damages
but he never received a written response.
Jack Harzke said no written response was mailed to Garey but that numerous meetings
were held and oral response given. Steve Kallman said an interoffice memo was written
by one of his employees and on file in his office. In that memo a possible "wash-out"
ias what had been discussed.
Mayor Tonn asked staff if it, would be appropriate to pay Garey the $4,700. Staff
responded negatively. Mayor Tonn instructed staff to prepare a written response and
get it to Mr. Garey by Friday.
Jack Garey stated he was "still disappointed" with the "bad publicity" he has
received.
Richard Wells, Attorney for Westinghouse, told the Council that Westinghouse was
considering the question of development potential on their property north of town. Coral
Springs, Florida is one of their developments. A deligation of staff and Council was
July 28, 1981

CITIZENS COMMUNICATIONS:
Lee Williams, owner of 200 acres of and where Brushy Creek and Lake Creek join,'
suggested that the notice provided by the City for annexation was "not legally sufficient."
Williams also wanted to know if the City ias planning on "annexing my property." Mayor
Tonn asked the; City Attorney and the Planning Director to retire to the Council and
Staff meeting room to ascertain exactly w ere Williams property was located and discuss
the legal notices. After a brief period he three gentlemen returned and Mr. She
assured Mr. Williams that his property is "not under consideration for annexation at
this time."
PRESENTATIONS:
5A. Parks and Recreation De artment Director! Sharon Prete made a short presentation
to the Council concerning the status of the Parks and Recreation Department. Prete went
August 13, 1981
over what had been accomplished this past year and what her department hoped to
accomplish in this next fiscal year.
Councilman Howell asked about the City's liability concerning the "lake" in
Round Rock West Park. Steve Sheets told the Council that he and Sharon had visited
numerous times on this same issue. Sheets explained that the question of whether
the "lake" is man made or natural has not yet been determined. If the lake is
natural the City's potential liability is much less. Also if the City encourages
swimming then the liability would increase. Sheets concluded that if the City is
negligent in any way then the City will be liable.
5B. Planning and Community Development Director. Paul Gambrel gave a brief
overview of the duties and functions of his department.

Steve Sheets said he had been negotiating with the railroad concerning the licenses.
Sheets basic concern was the indemnity clause. Sheets went over a scenario of what
might happen if the clause was left in th license. Sheets said the City might have
to resort to condemnation if the railroad fefuses to cooperate with the City. Sheets
then told the Council he had included the following section in the license:
3.2. Indemnification and Hold Harmless
During the term of this License, Route Rock agrees to indemnify GRR and hold it
harmless from any suits, claims, costs, loss or damage which may accrue to GRR,
Round Rock or third parties, from the operation of the Pipeline arising out
of, or occasioned by, the negligent acts of Round Rock or its employees or agents.
The loss or damage for which Round Rock shall indemnify GRR and hold it harmless
shall specifically include, but not be limited to, the following: (a) damage to
or destruction of railroad track and track bed, railroad cars and engines, or to
the Pipeli6e; (b) personal injury to or damage to property, owned, leased or
,operated by (i) GRR emplyees or agents, (ii) Round Rock employees, agents or
contractors, or (iii) any third parties; and (c) economic loss to any party
caused by damage to or destruction of the Pipeline or the interruption of
Pipeline service, caused by negligence of Round Rock, its employees or agents.
Such indemnification shall include all actual monetary cost to GRR, including
expenses and attorney's fees.

Paul Gambrel gave the following report: "This item is now under consideration
for first reading. Ideally the second and final reading will be scheduled for
September 10. At that time a separate ordinance to repeal the existing Zoning
Ordinance will also be proposed. By specifying an effective date of September
22, 1981 in the context of the repeal ordinance the Revised Zoning Ordinance will
become effective simultaneously with the expiration of the existing Zoning Ordinance."
Councilman Heiligenstein stated that the City of Austin was increasing their
zoning districts rather than collapsing them as our revised ordinance proposes. Paul
Gambrel said he felt the City of Round Rock "is going in the right direction in
collapsing our districts." Mayor Tonn asked if the new ordinance would minimize the
Council's land use management perogatives. Gambrel stated, "No sir, it does not."

Chief of Police Gene Collier gave a statistical report concerning what his

department has done in the last year and then went on to advise the Council what type
of job he hoped to do in the coming year. Co uncilwoman Lee asked the Chief how many
i
businesses outside the City limits who hive alarm systems have their systems hooked
up to the Police Department. Chief said he would have to get the exact number but
there were some. Mayor Tonn said he did notifeel the taxpayers of the City should have
to subsidize services for those people optside the City limits who do not have to
pay city taxes.
Lynn Bizzell, Fire Chief, gave a brief Presentation concerning his department.
Presently the Fire Department consists of 111paid firemen and 20 volunteers who must
attend drills and be kept abreast of thelatest in firefighting equipment and methods.
I
The Council discussed the equitability of payment to the City for fires fought out-
side the City limits. Presently the County pays the City approximately $2,000 per year
to cover 55,000 acres of land which equates to .04� per acre. The Council requested that
a resolution appear on the September 10th agenda requesting that a more equitable means
bel found in determining how much the County pays for fire service.

LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL
August 27, 1981
The Honorable Mayor
Members of the City Council
Dear Council Members:
The purpose of this letter is to convey to the City Council a voting
action taken by the Citizen Advisory Commission at its last meeting
which was held on Wednesday; August 19, 1981. At that time the con-
sulting':engineers recommended the contact stabilization method of
wastewater treatment as the best practicable waste treatment tech-
nology for use by the future wastewater treatment plant. By a
unanimous vote the Commission concurred with that recommendation.
This decision was based on the following considerations: cost,
operator familiarity, contractor and supplier familiarity, high
reliability, low land intensity and minimal environment impacts.
Notable the contact stabilization method is also employed by the
existing treatment plant.
Yours very truly,
Joe M. Baker, Chairman
Citizen Advisory Commission
Councilwoman Lee asked that the bi-weekly reports from Trinity Testing Lab be
included in Council packets until the Lake Georgetown Project is complete.

There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 9:22 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

Mayor Tonn read the ordinance and then stated that he would recommend defering
and rejecting the bids received, reconsidering 45 days from today. Councilman Howell
said he felt the Council should go ahead and consider the bids received. He said the
market would just have as good a chance to get worse as it will to get better. Bill
Harrison said that First Southwest Company forecasts that the bond market will improve
in 4 to 6 months. If the City really needs the money then sell now but if the City can
wait 4 to 6 months then that is what should be done. The low bid was a good bid and
well within the market.
MOTION: Councilman Howell moved to aJopt the ordinance accepting the bid of First

man Mike Heiligenstein, Councilman Graham Howell, Councilman Pete Correa, Councilman
Joe M. Baker and Councilwoman Trudy L. Lee. Also present were City Manager Bob
Bennett, Assistant City Manager Sam Huey and City Attorney Steve Sheets.
WORK SESSION:
3B. Consider discussion of the 1981-82 proposed budget. City Manager Bob Bennett
briefly went over the two budgets presented. One budget represented a high, low and
medium budget figure for each line item as had been requested by the Council. The
other budget was the mid -budget proposal as proposed to the Council by the City
Manager.
Councilmembers and staff went through a list of capital equipment requests.
It was the consensus of the Council that 2 garbage cans totaling $140 be deleted from
the Library request, a $900 typewriter be deleted from the Police Department request,
and that 8 stack chairs worth $1,000 be deleted from the Recreation Department budget.
Councilman Howell is to work with the City Manager concerning possible changes in
the Building Inspection Department and report back to the Council concerning the
Homeowners Warranty Program (HOW).
The Council was of the consensus that line item 10-19-5456 (hotel/motel tax)
be reassessed to determine alternate ways to spend the money. Councilwoman Lee
and Councilman Robinson are to report back to the Council on this item. They are
also to check with the Chamber of Commerce to see what money the City gives them
is used for.
Councilman Howell and Councilman Robinson asked that a representative of the
Williamson County Health Department and the Child Development Center be at the meeting
September 10th to enlighten the Council on both of those operations.
The juvenile officer is to be funded through a grant and, therefore, the Council
requested that the position be deleted from the Police Department budget.
Discussion was held concerning the 3 new firemen proposed in the Fire Department
budget. These men are to be brought on line when the new fire station is ready and they
will man that station. Councilmembers then discussed the training of the firemen
both paid and volunteer members and what percentage of the money would be going to
train a volunteer tofight fires outside the city limits.
Parks and Recreation was the next department to be discussed. Sharon Prete went
over the field maintenance. It was suggested that the hotel/motel tax might be spent
on special events for the recreation department.
It was the consensus of the Council that the proposed clerk in the Public Works
Department could possibly be postponed or combined with the inspection clerk position.

said his only objection to the proposed Zonijng Ordinance was the fact that there are no

elected officials would be "more responsive to the citizens as a whole" and wanted the
"elected officials to be held responsible fair the actions taken." Councilman Howell
said he felt the decisions of the Development Review Board should "be kept out of the
political arena."

Re: Parade
September 12, 1981
9:00 a.m.
The Round Rock Sports Association of which I am the President, sponsors Pop
Warner football in Round Rock. This organization consists of about 145 youngsters
and their parents. The participation this year has been outstanding. Our opening
day festivities are scheduled for September 12, 1981 at Buck Egger Field. We would
like very much to have a parade down Mays to the field. This parade would include
various City dignitaties, the Fire Department, our three teams with their cheerleaders,
the opposing teams from Cedar Park, the County Directors, UT athletes, the elementary
school principals, several marching groups, etc. Had it not been for the support
of the city, the interested parents and friends and the generous businesses, this
program could not have progressed so much. We would like to thank you all for that.
Your thoughtful consideration of this matter is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Bill Largent
Director
Pop Warner Rootball
President
Round Rock Sports Association
The Council concurred with the request by the Association. Chief of Police Gene
Collier was asked to notify the merchants on Main Street so that they would be aware of
the parade.
Dr. Clarence Skrovan, Director of the Williamson County Health Unit, gave a brief
update concerning the Health Department. Skrovan told the Council he had met with the
various city managers and it was the consensus of the group that $1.00 per capita was
an equitable formula for the cities contribution to the support of the health unit. That
meant the amount from Round Rock would be $11,617. Skrovan advised the Council that the
County was contributing 36% of his entire budget which would be $50,000 out of revenue
sharing funds and $16,800 which would be $187,000 or 20% of the total Health Department
budget with Round Rock contributing 6.2% of the 20%. The entire Health Department budget
both from the State and County totals $387,000.
Mayor Tann said he would like to meet with the County Commissioners to seek more
equitable means of distribution of funds from the City and County for one service so
that the City residents would not be taxed twice for the same service.
Beverly Duffy of the Round Rock Child Cevelopment Center told the Council that the
City of Round Rock was contributing 10.9% of the Center's total operating budget which
equals to $8,415. The Center presently serves 35 children with 27 living inside the
city limits. The Center provides 2/3 of the daily food the children receive as well as
rest and stimulating environment. Duffy also advised the Council that Title 20 money
was scheduled to be cut by 17% this coming year and that the Center would most likely
be requesting additional assistance from the United Was and City.

Mary Lee Harris representing the Sam Bass Theatre Association thanked the
Council and HistoricCommission for the assil$tance provided in renovating the Old Depot
i
The first performance will be held Thursday,! September 24th. Harris said the entire

12A. Consider bid on a new garbage truck. Jack Harzke made the following presentation:
Bids were scheduled for opening 10:00 a.m., September 3, 1981, for a truck approved in
the 1980-81 budget. One bid was received as follows:
Hendrix GMC Trucks, Inc. - 1980 GMC Diesel - $27,708
Hendrix has recommended and offered a variable speed governor at an additional
cost of $458.
The staff recommends acceptance of the base bid and addition at a total cost
of $28,166.
Councilman Correa said he felt that the diesel would be much harder to work on
and more expensive to repair than a gasoline engine vehicle. The only equipment the
City presently has that is diesel is the construction equipment. Mayor Tonn said he
was concerned that the City received only one bid. One prospective bidder had contacted
the Mayor and voiced concern that not everyone could bid as the specifications were
written.

Howell seconding the motion.

Councilman Heiligenstein asked about the !treets in Rubio addition. Jim
Hurley responded with a tentative timetable.
Councilman Correa asked about the smell at the sewer plant. Bennett said
the problem was due to some old sludge in the (trying beds which were filled too
thick and too fast. The City has "stepped up" the odor control program and has
allievated the problem of the way the sludge was put in the drying beds.
Councilwoman Lee said that the Oversight Committee had met and that the
water line project was running smoothly.

Bob Bennett stated that the staff was hoping to have the values by this meeting
but there was problems with the computer and prevented having them. Bennett said
the quicker the ordinance is passed the better for the tax paying citizens.
Hopefully, this will speed up the process and allow the citizens who so choose to pay
their taxes prior to January 1st. The rate can be changed at the second reading of
the ordinance in the Council so desires.
Dusty Thames, School Tax Assessor/Collector, brought the Council up-to-date on what
has transpired since the last presentation. Thames advised the Council that a notice
of value change would be out to citizens the first of next week. At that point if they
November 24, 1981
(the taxpayer) have a problem with their property value, the taxpayer may request a
hearing before the Board of Equalization.Thames said he had not 'approached either
the 'Council or the Sc ool Board for an extention on the; January 31st deadline for
paying taxes.
Councilman Baker questioned "what constitutes the conclusion of the hearings?"
Thames said that when the bulk of the scheduled hearings has been completed then
tax 'notices will be s nt out. As that point, if there are no further scheduled'
hearings, the Board will recess so that if there are any late appeals within a reason -
aloe amount of time the Board may reconvene.
Steve Sheets tolc the Council "as long as the Council does not go over a 3%
increase, the ordinance can be amended at the next meeting."

for transit services through a user subsidy program;
* Participate in the establishment of the Austin Metropolitan
Transit Authority MTA),

Rock. (First Reading). Bob Bennett gave the Council two rough -draft' ordinances to
consider. The first was a rather lengthy one which set forth "a great deal of red 'tape";
and the other simply set forth a license to operate a taxi with the, Council' establishing
a policy and 'the ',staff administering the policy. Steve Sheets said that either ordinance
would be "perfectly legal."
Councilmembers vaic d their concern pertaining to, the liability the City would
have if a franchise vs. e license type ordinance was passed. Sheets said that the
State sets forth regulations concerning' insurance and liability and the City would'
not be liable.
Both Councilman BakEr and Councilman Heiligenstein said they would favor the
license process approach Mayor Tonn suggested the Council begin with the license'
approach and then move -t the franchise if it becomes necessary. Lee Lewis said
his client would 'definitely favor a license rather than a franchise approach.

of the pool. This past year the fees did pay for the operation with a few dollars left
over. In order to find out if the person is from out of town or not the pool staff simply
ask the person. If this system is not satisfactory then the staff will go to the

Ordinance Revision, scheduled to begin in early 1982, the recommendation is to disapprove
the ordinance as listed on the agenda later in this meeting. The Commission intends to
send forward a favorable recommendation concerning reworded collector street policies
in mid 1982. There were no citizens comments. The public hearing was closed.
6B. Consider public testimony concerning the proposal to revise the sign standards.
Paul Gambrel gave the staff presentation. The proposed revisions are modifications
rather than sweeping changes. Importantly, under the proposal eligible shopping centers
would be allocated one additional free-standing sign, and a reader board could be permitted
as a permanent ground sign provided that it is properly braced. The Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended approval. There were no citizen comments, therefore,
the public hearing was closed.
6C. Consider public testimony concerning the proposal to reduce the size
of a required paved parking space. The presentation was given by Paul Gambrel.
The reduced size proposed (9' x 18' versus 10' x 20') is now considered almost
universal. Smaller paved parking spaces result in less impervious ground cover and
less cost. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval. There were no
citizen comments. The public hearing was closed.

"felt comfortable with the minimum parking space regulations." Gambrel also
stated that there were no specifications on isle width and that it had never been a

8R. Consider a change order for an alarm system for the City's water and sewer system.
The Council had previously requested staff to have an alarm system installed on water and
sewer facilities that will allow the City to monitor the following: Power outages at key
water tanks about to overflow or run out and sewer overflows at the lift stations. Change
orders to Delta Electric and Hogan Mechanical would be required. The estimated cost of the
water/sewer alarm system is $35,000. This item is currently unbudgeted. Funds are
available from the Lake Georgetown Project and unallocated revenue bond funds. The State
has authorized the change order for Lake Georgetown Project funds that would pay for the
water aspect of the alarm system. The City would pay for the sewer aspects. Water portion
would be $26,178 and the sewer portion would be $9,013. The system is a radio system
that would probably be set up and monitored at the Police Department.
Jack Harzke told the Council that he was fairly certain the system would be installed
before the summer months. Mayor Pro -tem Robinson voiced his concern that the company
putting in the system be bonded not just the manufacturers bond.
Councilman Heiligenstein voiced concern about the painting of the water tanks. He
asked the staff if the people who would possibly be affected with lower water pressure
when one of the tanks was being painted, can be notified selectively through the water
billing process. He also asked what color the tanks would be painted. The Tower Drive
standpipe will be ocean green and the elevated tank will be painted silver with Round
Rock printed on the west side facing IH35. This job will be done in the winter when
consumption is low.

Gambrel stated that a„read r type sign may be permitted as a permanent sign if it
has properly been braced.' Councilwoman Lee asked what the signs would look like when
anchored down. Gambrel said he anticipated they have the 'look of a mobile home tie'
down. Following further discussion of the proposed ordinance, Councilman Heiligenstein
asked about the large sign on Highway 79 across from the HEB shopping center. Gambrel
said that he and the City Attorney have looked into the situation and the sign will
have to be declared a'nuisance 'in'court before anything can be done.

was seconded by Councilman Howell.

On Friday, December 4 1981, Judge Herman Jones of the Travis County District
Court, in Austin ruled on ar item which had been in his court for over one year. This
item concerned affiliate transactions and how Texas Power & Light passes on to their
customers their fuel cost
Texas Power & Light; filed with the City on December 9, 1981, tariffs amending
procedures for obtaining r gulatory approval of their payments to their affiliates for fuel,
Traditionally, their regulators have allowed them to pass these fuel charges on to the
customers as part of the monthly fuel charge. However, due to Judge Jones' ruling,
TP&L is now ordered to seek approval ifrom ,their regulatory body which is the City Council.
Those cities that have giv n up original jurisdiction to the Public Utility Commission
do not take action on this matter.
Under this tariff, TP8L will file with the City an estimate of costs of fuel at
least 70 ';days before the billing month those costs that would be charged to the customers.
These estimates will be pr vided to Texas Power &;Light by Texas Utilities Fuel
Company and the Texas' Utilities' Generating Company, both, of which provide TP&L with
fuel at cost to the custom rs
Texas Power & Light f els the way the fuel costs have been _handled in the past has
been to the benefit of the customers. This procedure can necessitate TP&L presenting
to the Council on a monthl basis a very detailed and extensive 'presentation for approval
of the fuel costs. This c ange in procedure should not affect the cost of fuel in
any manner. This is simpl a procedural change.
After making the abOVE presentation, Layne Ballard, TP&L',Manager, explained the
stance of Don Butler, lattorney ;for Texas Municipal League.
Councilman HeiligenstEin said he felt a "periodic education by TF&L would be very
beneficial. Ballard said he would be glad to appear before the Council at any time.
Ballard also said he would probably be back with a rate increase request before long.

CITY MANAGER'S REPORT AND COUNCIL COMMENTS:
Bennett explained that during the recent record low temperatures of 5 degrees, the
City answered 102 water calls of which 72 were frozen customer lines.
The MUD policy is going to committee next week and,hopefully to the Council at the
next regular meeting.
The Highway Department has said the IH35 access road improvements will be let in April.
Bennett gave a preliminary sketch to the Council for the conversion of two bays in
the Public Safety Building to give additional space to the Police Department and to the
Public Works Department. Bennett said he would be back to the Council with more information
at the next regular meeting.
Councilman Heiligenstein said he would like to be brought up to date on the following
items: 1) MUD policies, 2) the regional sewer plant project, 3)"a budget update would be
helpful", 4) water from Lake Granger, 5) the downtown revitalization, 6) bonds for Gattis
School Road and 7) the scheduling of a work session within the next month to go over some
of these items and more. Councilman Heiligenstein also said he would like to have a work
session concerning the parks plans and what that department is doing. He then thanked
Jack Harzke for the work done on the streets in town.
Councilman Howell thanked the City and TP&L for the light that was put up on McNeil
Road. Councilman Howell also requested that the staff contact Carl Lidell about what
was going to happen at the intersection of 1325 and County Road 172. He then voiced
concern about waiting too long to sell bonds for the proposed street improvements. Bennett
told the Council that staff is waiting on the audit in order to determine the bonding
capacity. Huey then told the Council that the audit is tentatively scheduled to come
before the Council at the next meeting. Bennett said he would like to put together
"3 packages"; one G.O., one revenue and one combination.
Councilman Baker asked about the status as far as easements and Southwestern Bell is
concerned on Gattis School Road and Georgetown Street. The City has had good cooperation
out of Southwestern Bell on Georgetown Street and they are "moving right along". Crews
will be working shortly on McNeil Road fixing pavement.

Wayne Huffman, represen ing the Calvin C. Huffman Estate, said that he had no
objection in principle to the frontage road project. He said he felt it would be feasible
to pull back the off ramp from where it presently is proposed. 'Huffman stated that "our
property already has excelle t access along North Mays. I`m not sure the improvements would
benefit our property anymore with the new road. Huffman asked for "more research" onl
the project.
January 28, 1982 0 a_ P
Richard Huffman, also representing Calvin C. Huffman Estate, stated that he contacted
the Highway Department concerning their general guidelines pretaining to length of footage
between an on and off ramp on a major highway. The general guideline given was 2,000 feet.
Huffman said, "If the ramp was brought back 600 to 700 feet, the state's guidelines would
still be met and make the access to the middle of our property. I feel the exit ramp should
be moved." Huffman went on to say that the project "could be worthwhile but we would like
more study by us, the staff and the Highway Department."
Richard May, representing Bell -Rent Corporation, said that his clients were completely
in favor of the project. He said he felt the project to be fair as was the estimate.
Comparing the property to other property sold in that area the estimates were very con-
servative according to Mays. He concluded by saying he did not feel the entire project
should be delayed for an extended period of time because of excalating costs.
Randy Crain of Crain Real, Estate echoed the opinion of Richard May.
There being no further comments, the public hearing was closed.

Mayor Tonn said he would like to see the state be able to move expediciously on the
project. He asked if the Huffmans would be agreeable to absorbing the cost involved in
-- moving the off ramp the 600 or 700 feet as suggested by the Huffmans. Bennett then told
the Council that the first plan for the off ramp left the Huffman property totally
unaccessable. With the present proposal there are 600 feet in which a person can decide
whether to turn into the property or go on to Highway 81. The state says the optimal
location of the off ramp is where it is presently proposed.
Councilman Baker said he felt the primary reason for an exit ramp is to get people
access to U.S. 81 rather than access to certain property. Councilman Robinson said he
did not want to jeopardize the whole project just to move the off ramp a few hundred feet.
Mayor Tonn asked that staff work with the City Attorney, the Highway Department and then
get with Mr. Huffman to ascertain the feasibility of moving the off ramp again. Also cost
for the move would need to be determined so that that amount could be applied to the
Huffman property. The ordinance will be read only on first reading and a special called
meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 8th to find out the answers and act on the second
reading of the ordinance.

3B. Consider discussion of water minimums. The following report was given by Sam Huey:
As communicated by last years audit report the City incurred a loss
of working capital and reduced bonding capacity. The City was not
able to fund any additional revenue supported bonds, although we
did maintain our times coverage for our existing debt. This fiscal
year we will not maintain times coverage if we do nciL.increase
minimum water charges, much less sell additional revenue bonds as
required to fund the Council approved C.I.P. Program. The proposed
immediate rate increase is as follows:
Present H2O Rate
$4.00/3,000, $1.00/Additional 1,000
Proposed H2O Rate
$6.00/3,000, $1.00/Additional 1,000
Averaqe Utility Bill
14,500 gal. water avg. $15.50
9,600 gal. sewer avg. 12.92
Garbage 5.00
Present Avg. Bill 33.42
14,500 gal. water avg. $17.50
9,600 gal. sewer avg. 12.92
Garbage 5.00
Proposed Avg. Bill 35.42
The $2.00 increase in minimums will generate approximately $108,000.00 and
would represent a 5.6% increase to the average utility bill. This increase
would allow the City to partially offset the $122,925 loss in working
capital from Fiscal 81-82. The 1982-83 C.I.P. proports to issue $1,100,000
of additional debt of which this rate increase would support $541,000 and still
maintain 1.5 times coverage.
Mayor Tann said at this time the minimum could be changed and look at a progressive
rate structure in October. The Mayor also stated the need to re -prioritize the C.I.P.
projects.
Councilman Heiligenstein said he would hate to see the increase in the minimums without
further study. He asked if the staff had looked at lowering rates to encourage minimum
more consumption rather than raising the rates. Bennett said that the staff feels the
minimum rates need to be raised rather than lowered.
Mayor Tonn said he felt the Council should "bite the bullet and move forward. We have
to shift debt service away from the ad valorum tax base and to do that we have to have a
rate increase". Staff was instructed to prepare the necessary ordinance for the next regular
meeting for Council consideration.
3C. Consider a contract from Texas Crushed Stone to purchase raw surplus water. Bennett
went over the contract with Council. The rate for delivered surplus water is 55� per thousand.
The rate for reserved water but not delivered is 20¢ per thousand. Then a rate of 37¢ per
i
housand would be charged for transporting water from other allocations. The staff anticipates
making a little over $100,000 a year total on the contract which would meet approximately
$32,000 of debt service.
Councilman Baker said he felt the contract was written very well with a lot of safeguards
for the City. He was concerned that there was not a provision for "up front money" in the
contract. Councilman Heiligenstein said he shared Baker's concern.

Councilman Heiligenstein said that the City should look at other areas besides
the Davis Spring Branch (west of town). He continued by saying, "I'm not sure we
are giving Jack enough money and people to work with in maintaining the drainage ways."
Heiligenstein then brought up the "Drainage Utility Tax" concept.
Councilwoman Lee questioned the extent of damage in the Rubio area. Damage was
mainly in two or three homes.
Mayor Tonn suggested a three part solution. The first part included 1)removing the
crossing on Round Rock West Drive; 2)removing the crossing on Deepwood Drive; 3)shoot
grades on the retention pond in Rubio Subdivision; 4)clean out the channel in Chisholm
Valley all on the east side of twon and 6)channeling around St. Williams Loop. The
second part of the suggestion was to pursue a bond election to raise funds for drainage
improvements through out the entire City. The final part included contacting the Brushy
Creek Water Conservation Improvement District for their assistance.
Councilman Heiligenstein and Councilman Robinson both voiced concern at taking
out both bridges on Lake Creek without some professional opinions to determine which
bridge actually should be taken out. Councilman Baker suggested it might be feasible to
take out both bridges and put in crossings "at grade or water level."
At this point in the meeting, Mayor Tonn opened the discussion up to the audience.
Mary Evins of 1608 St. Williams stated that she felt absolutely nothing had been done
by the City since the Memorial Day flood of last year. She said that her husband is an
invalid and cannot possibly get out of the house to safety if flooding occured while he
was alone. Evins concluded by saying, "...do something and do it now!"
John LeBreton son of Ed LeBreton of 405 Lake Creek Drive said he had to help his
parents get to safety during the flood. LeBreton suggested, "lower the first bridge
and raise the second bridge."
514 Yucca Drive resident Mike Crow asked who is responsible for the damage done to
his and his neighbors homes. He also asked, "Why was I not told properly that I needed
flood insurance?"
Another Yucca Drive resident Melinda Smith of 510 Yucca said that her home "flooded
again this year. Something is wrong with the designing of the drainage in Chisholm Valley."
Smith asked that the Council not approve any further development in Chisholm Valley
until the drainage problem was "properly solved."
Steve LeBreton of 405 Lake Creek Drive said that a solution should not be left to
the developer. The City should take the"first step."
Ruben Perez of 801 Tony Drive in the Rubio Subdivision said that he was again flooded
as he was last Memorial Day Flood. Perez feels the water he is getting is from the TG&Y
development. Mr. Perez said he feels he deserves "some money" for the damage.
John Keese of Yucca Drive said that the problem is not the ditch in Chisholm Valley
but the entire "drainage design". Keese also stated that the "pipes in the drainage ditch

RESOLUTIONS & PROCLAMATIONS.
13A. Consider a resol'tion auth)riziog the Mayor to enter into a contract with
Texas Crushed Stone. Counc loran Howell began the discussion by saying he understood
this contract was proposed io "off se deb on a short term basis. This contract
does not do what we want it to do." he contract as proposed would be a "no take,
no pay ,contract for Texas 'Ctushed Sto e. Whereas, every citizen has a take and pay
and don'It take and still Oa3 contract " Councilman Howell went on to say that his
first impression of the co,n ract was hat t would be a "stand by drought water
contract." Howell then bro ght to light t at he had heard a contract between Texas
Crushed Stone and Westinghouse had bean drawn up !selling TCS the Westinghouse property
to be annexed into the City limits in 1985 by agreement between the City and Westinghouse.
If this is true 'then the City would b selling TCS water allowing them to 'do strip
mining inside the city limits. Counc loran Howell concluded by saying, ,'I am totally
opposed to the contract at his ,time..'
Councilman Robinson asked if TCS ever mentioned the purchase of the Westinghouse
property while negotiating he contra t. Oennett said it was never mentioned. Councilman
Robinson said he would like to ask We tinghouse if they were "trying to sell us up the
river" when we were negotiating a con racywith them recently. Bennett explained that
the City had received no written resp nse to our response of the contract.
Councilwoman Lee ;said t at since she had been on the Council, the council had
"encouraged controlled grow'ti and clean industry and I find this shocking'.' Councilman'
,
Howell said, "It's our water and we should have some controls over the way they use it."
Councilman Bakersaid that ha felt some very st.ri;ngerit provisions should �be included in
any contract with TCS if the Council even desired to contract with them at all. Councilman
Heiligenstein echoed other.C)uncilmembers feelings by saying,'"I sure don't appreciate
the way '',we've been treated." Mayor Tc n concluded by saying, "We need to continue to
pursue whatever is available to us to l of have strip mining in our ETJ . "

OLD BUSINESS:
3A Consider measures o address floo in and drainage problems. Bob Bennett
went over the material included in Council ackets. Public Works Director Jack Harzke
made apresentation on each of the flooded areas.
The Chisholm Valley are was considerel first. Harzke went over the drainage
plan for Chisholm Valley Sou h, the dr ina ditch in Frontier Park, and the culvert
improvements for Frontier Trail anti Wa'onga . Frontier drainage improvements are to
be completed by dune 30th; a 1 dra nag` improvements by the developer are scheduled
to be completed by September 30th. Harzke informed the Council of the developer's
Letter of Credit for $57,500 which will expire September 1982. Mr. Wilhite has agreed
to furnish an easement on hi prop rty dit h improvements' by Hickerson are contingent
upon the City obtaining this easement. Cou cilman Robinson said that he` would be
interested in seeing the City shoot grades n houses on Yucca to determine slab eleva-
tion to check concurrence wi h plah sp' cifi' ations. In response to a; question by
Councilman Robinson, Harzke xpain d t e IH 35 structure in relation to drainage.
Audrey Lewis of 402 Lake Creel: Drive a peared as the'representat ve' for Round
Rock Citizens Concerned for Flood ont of His presentation included;a video tape
of the Lake Creek area which he took d ring; the flood. The purpose of the tape was to
point out the following situ tions Lake C' eek overflows li'nto Lake Creek Drive at the
Deepwood crossing; the water retur s to Lake Creek through the houses'; and the Round
Rock West Drive crossing imp des w ter. Leis stated that his group agrees with the
Council regarding the long term so uti n, bit they are mainly concerned now with the
short term solution. They 'feel that tie rate of the moving water can be` increased by
cleaning out the creek and r movin the cro'sings which act as dams. There was dis-
cussion concerning the effect of these possible solutions ,on the St. Williams area.
Harzke said some relief will be provided as a result of these improvements to Lake
Creek, but substantial clean p sucli as additional channeling and removal of trees will
be necessary:
The Mayor invited citizens to speak on the Rubio area; and ,other isolated flooding
and drainage problems.
A lady from Chisholm Valley d scr`bed a situation on!Sagebrush Drive where water
was going over storm sewers.
A man who lives on Sagebrush ugg sted the need for an emergency access to IH
35 when the low water crossfiig by zheag-A-Bag is flooded.
Bill Wood shared some of his bse'vati'ns concerning the culverts in Chisholm
Valley, noting that poor soi cons rva ion is contributing', to the poor performance
of the culverts:
Jake Johnson of Chisholi Vall.y sated that he would like to see willow 'trees
cut down in Rubio to prevent flooding in that channel.
A man from Round Rock West asked ,he C uncilto consider the Oakridge low water.
crossing in its assessment oF drai age problems.
In!response',to a questi n by eli da Smith of 510 Yucca, Harzke explained that the
Letter of Credit', from Hickerson wa not contingent upon further development approval in
Chisholm Valley.' Smith aske if t at 57,5 0 would be sufficient to accomplish the
May 17, 1982 2 9'7
improvements. Harzke replied that he feels that it will be sufficient.
Dan Delleney of 1607 Sagebrush Drive asked the Council to look at the drainage
problems associated with his house.
In response to a question regarding a flood control structure on the Austin White
Lime property, Councilman Robinson noted that the water was not coming from that structure
since it was not even near capacity. He added that the water came from west of this
structure.
Ed LeBreton of 405 Lake Creek Drive suggested that the Council look into borrowing
a military bridge as a temporary measure to replace the low water crossings.
Lynn Williams of 305 Pecan Lane addressed the Council regarding a city sewage pipe
and earthen dam that flood his back yard. Mayor Tonn instructed staff to take care of
this problem immediately since this is not flooding that occurs just during emergency
situations but every time it rains.
Bill Maschal of 1210 Creekview Drive commended the Council and urged it to act on
these proposals. He said that every time it rains,a foot of water --runoff from the
street --flows through his front yard.
Richard Jaeger of 1609 St. Wil ' liams Loop stated that his house was flooded on all
four sides. The side of the house facing the creek was obviously flooded from the creek,
but he said the other flooding resulted from runoff from the street. He urged the Council
to look at the heights and depths of the creek and land filling by the developer.
I John Keese of 607 Yucca Drive asked about "Reach D" in Chisholm Valley. Harzke
explained that the channel may need additional depth at that point. Keese said water
was 15 feet wide in his yard. He asked the City to make sure the ditch will hold all
the water the City is planning to put in it. He pointed out that the drainage facility
is at capacity in the area already.
Ed Phillips of 1616 St. Williams Loop requested the City clean up "Glen Neans'
mess.1' Phillips said that his house was flooded from the street and the creek.
Karl Hanner of 306 Lake Creek Drive urged Council to be responsive to flood victims'
needs. He feels streets in the area are not built to standards and that the dirt the
City placed along the Deepwood crossing only blocked the flow and washed away.
In response to a question from Aubrey Lewis, Mayor Tonn stated that the City
Attorney will research legal recourse for the City and will make his findings available.
Gordon Perez spoke in behalf of the Rubio area. He stated that he hopes the
Reconnaisance Report will rectify the situation.
Mayor Tonn called a five minute recess.
Harzke outlined the Rubio situation. Channelization needs to be accomplished.
Rubio receives drainage from the. TG&Y tract and backwater from Lake Creek proper.
There is no public easement in that area to do improvements. Harzke noted that the
entire drainage plan for Southgate is being reviewed.
MOTION: Mayor Tonn moved to address flooding and drainage problems in the Lake
Creek, St. Williams Loop, Chisholm Valley, and Rubio areas with the following measures:
To suspend building permits in Chisholm Valley until the Council can be assured that '
drainage water can be handled; to contact Hickerson and solicit his cooperation in speeding
up the timetable in his drainage plans; to advise the developer of Southgate that a
certificate of occupancy will not be authorized until necessary retention systems are in
place; to authorize additional channeling -in Yucca area and to widen and deepen the
drainage ditch; to contact owners of the Wilhite tract for necessary easements; to remove
both low water crossings at Lake Creek Drive and Round Rock West Drive, installing a box
culvert at the Deepwood crossing and pavement at grade for the Round Rock West Drive
crossing; to authorize channeling of the creek in the St. Williams Loop area; to pursue
legal remedies for the City concerning financial responsibilities; to authorize the

The Round Rock City Council met in Special Called Session Friday, May 21, 1982, in
Council Chambers.
ROLL -CALL: Those present were Mayor Larry L. Tonn, Mayor Pro -tem Mike Robinson, Council-
man Mike Heiligenstein, Councilman Graham Howell, Councilman Pete Correa, Councilman Joe
M. Baker and Councilwoman Trudy L. Lee. Also present .were City Manager Bob Bennett, Assistan.
City Manager Sam Huey and City Attorney Steve Sheets.
RESOLUTIONS:
3A. Consider a resolution addressing drainage problems along Lake Creek in Round Rock
West.
3B. Consider a resolution addressing drainage problems in the Chisholm Valley Sub-
division.
3C. Consider a resolution addressing drainage problems in the Rubio Subdivision.
Bob Bennett gave a slide presentation. Mayor Tonn stated that the staff was proposing
the following: 1) remove the Deepwood Crossing. and replace it with box culverts for
approximately $100,000; 2) remove the Round Rock West Drive Crossing for $9,000; 3) urge the
developer to step up his timetable for the completion of the necessary work in Chisholm
Valley; 4) no issuance of C.O.'S in Southgate Development until the proper drainage has been
accomplished which effects the Rubio Subdivision; 5) $15,000 to channel through the Rubio
Subdivision. This expenditure would total $150,000. Monies are availabe from interest
income and will not affect any other City projects or funds.
Discussion of how the proposed actions would be accomplished took place. Steve Sheets
said that due to the flooding this can be declared an emergency therefore, bidding does not
have to be done by publication. There is an emergency provision which allows the City to
negotiate bids. Bennett told the Council that he also had contacted the Highway Department,''`
Soil Conservation Service and the Railroad for assistance in this matter.
Bennett told the Council that the City does have a Letter of Credit from Doyle Hickerson
in the amount of $57,000 for improvements to be completed by September 30, 1982. However,
Richard Wells, Counsel for Mr. Hickerson, said that Mr. Hickerson has agreed to have the
drainage under Frontier Drive completed by June 30th. Wells also said that the improvements
on Wagon Gap which were originally scheduled for completion September 30th would also be
moved to June 30th. Wells concluded by saying that the work on Yucca would begin as a oon as
easement from the Wilhite tract has been secured and that the _developer has committed to
moving as fast as possible on all the projects.
Mayor Tonn read the resolution concerning improvements along Lake Creek Drive. The
resolution included the following steps: 1) Deepwood Low Water Crossing Improvements -
up to $100,000; 2) Removal of Round Rock West Drive Crossing - $9,000; 3) Any necessary
