David Kautz made the staff presentation. Kautz gave an overview of each department's budget. He pointed out line items that were requested by each department but were not funded. Highlights from the proposed budget are as follows: Growth Projections The budget reflects the current level of growth in single family housing starts in and surrounding the, City. Building activity is at its strongest since 1984. This construction activity, along with the resulting population growth, is expected to increase general revenues and the level of demand for City services. Tax Rate The total value of all taxable property, as rendered by the Williamson County Appraisal District, is expected to increase this year, reversing a four year decline. To fund operations such as public safety, streets maintenance, library, and parks and recreation, the City levies a tax on all taxable property. This budget requires a tax rate of $0.62399 per $100 valuation, compared to a rate of $0,.62479 last year. The current rate will produce a tax levy of 8% above last year due to the increased valuations. The new tax levy will yield an additional $225,000 and is intended to fund: a) three new,police officers and gelated equipment b) the compensation program implemented in April, 1992- c) increased operating, expenses such as the cost of operating a new police facility August 27., 1992 d) establAshmebt: of --a personnel 'office e) an employee cost of living wage increase. Effective Tax hate If adopted, would:: provide approximately the same amount of revenue collected last !year. Sales Tax The City's economy, produceda record sales tax collection for 1992 in the amount of$3,172,567. Due to continued growth projections are expected to generate $3,244,344 in sales tax revenue to the City. This revenue source is extremely important to the City in that it reduces property taxes correspondingly and it makes up over one-third of the general revenue. Water/Wastewater-Utility--Rates No change is scheduled for rates in this budget. Utility Fund Transfer The transfer from' the Utility fund to the General Fund has been increased by $72,600, for a total transfer of $900,000. The transfer is a reimbursement to cover the partial costs of benefits received by the Utility Fund from the General Fund, such as office space, financial servi cest administrative services, engineering services, data processing services and various other services and benefits. The transfer, should be increased to $1.2 million as soon as practicable if the utility is going to be self-supporting. Subdivision construction inspecr�ion ree A new fee is proposed for consideration which is intended to cover the City's cost of staff review and inspection of subdivision improvements. Under the fee plan, a development would be assessed 1.5% of the estimated cost of water, wastewater, paving and drainage improvements.Estimated annual revenue to the City would be $30,000. Implementation of this fee will require an amendment to the Code of Ordinances and equates to 'an approximate cost of $120.00 per lot. Personnel This budget proposes a 3%: cost of living increase for all. staff members. To -meet the growing demand for services and to offer improved service$:, additional personnel are proposed in the following departments:'� KI M Police Department: 1) Three Police Officers, scheduled for hire in January, February, and March. 2) One Animal Control Officer, scheduled for October to meet the increased demanim 3) One Data Entry Clerk, scheduled for October to relieve patrol officers from task of typing their own offense/ accident reports. This action will provide improved police coverage. , Parks and Recreation Department: 1) One Recreation Supervisor, scheduled for hire in January. This positiodesigned to provide better service in the recreation area. It is also designed to pay for itself through the generation of additional program registration fees and future funding is subject to successful programming. Personnel: 1) One Personnel Director, scheduled for appointment in April. The City staff has matured in size to require the expertise of a professional personnel officer. This position will help the City to more effectively recruit, develop, and retain employees. Industrial Pretreatment: 1) One Pretreatment Coordinator, scheduled for hire in October along with the development of a consolidated laboratory. Consolidated Laboratory Program The City currently operates three laboratories, one at each wastewater treatment plant and one at the water treatment plant. A single, consolidated laboratory program is proposed for the purpose of providing services more efficiently and eliminating the City's dependency on outside services. Street Program Funding is provided in this budget for the beginning of a street rebuilding program. In order for the City to preserve its infrastructure investment, funding to retard deterioration must be a priority. $270,000 collected under the discontinued road impact August 27, 1992 fee has been allocated toward a seal coating program for '1993. Future years should seethe development of a -dedicated revenue source in order to continue the street rebuilding=program. Outlook for the Future It is the staff's desire to begin to transform the traditional line -item budget into a more programmatic budget, a budget that clearly addresses the various, programs of the City and their effectiveness.

Joanne Land made the staff presentation. Councilman Palmer requested that staff look into the possibility of creating a "No Smoking" ordinance. Several ordinances from other cities were requested and reviewed. Councilman Palmer asked that the ordinance from Georgetown be considered for Round Rock. The Georgetown ordinance basically prohibits smoking in the following areas: art galleries, libraries, museums, and similar cultural facilities; classrooms and lecture halls, elevators; health care facilities; public conveyances; public meetings; public places," restaurants; retail stores; taxicabs; theaters; service lines; shopping centers and mall -s.; -and sports areas. Exceptions include,* retail tobacco stores who primarily sells tobacco products; enclosed areas of shopping centers and malls that are external to the retail stores would be no -smoking except for areas that would be designated as smoking areas; smoking as a part of a theatrical production; designated areas of restaurants; bars or cocktail lounges; designated areas of health care facilities; designated areas of theater lobbies that are physically separate from the spectator areas; and rooms of a restaurant utilized for private functions or banquets. Presentation was made in order to receive input and direction from all the Council prior to proceeding with the drafting of the ordinance. Councilman Palmer stated he wants a no smoking ordinance in the City of Round Rock. He added many cities have this type of ordinance and it is known what second hand smoke can do to an individual. The Georgetown ordinance is short and concise enough to do the job. Councilman Joseph expressed his concern on how businesses in older buildings would accommodate for no -smoking customers and how the required ventilation would be added. Councilman Stewart said he would like to express his comments at the public hearing for this ordinance. 6.C. Consides prese�ntat�ip.p_.goncernincf the 1992-1993 Hotel /Motel _budget. Ellen Spinn of the Round Rock Chamber of'. Commerce made the presentation on behalf of the Tourism Committee. Spinn outlined the events that have been accomplished by the Tourism Committee. One of those events was their review of %II October 22, 1992 applications for event hotel/motel funding for 1992-1993. The Tourism Committee recommended approval of the following requests: Fiesta Amistad $ 3,000 American Legion Baseball Tournaments $ 6,000 Police Officers Association BBQ Cook -off $ 2,500 Kiwanis Basketball Tournament $ 7,000 Rock Hardball Classic $ 3,000 Sertoma Gun Show $ 1,500 Texas Music Festival $ 7,500 Sportsfest '93 $10,000 Outlaw Trail '93 $12,000 Fast Draw Contest $ 4,025 Two requests that the Committee felt should be handled as loans with the money being repaid after the event were: Miss Round Rock Scholarship Pageant $ 2,500 This request did not warrant many hotel stays for the total event but is worthy enough for seed money. Sertoma Golf Tournament $ 1,500 The Sertoma Association declined the loan. Under the arts there were three requests which the Committee did not consider but reviewed as part of the overall budget process. The requested funds and recommendation are: Round Rock Community Choir $ 3,600 Sam Bass Theater $ 3,825 Brushy Creek Band $ 3,500 **This amount is less than what was requested by the Band. The request was for $4,-400 which is their entire budget. Staff felt that the group should seek additional funding as do the other arts groups. Chamber of Commerce $55,000 This is the same amount as was requested and approved last year. Other line items included in the budget were: Festival improvements at Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley $15,000 Maintenance and operation on the Community Center $ 8,000 I October 22, 1992 Total projected funds available $237,385 Total expenditures $147,950 Unallocated fund balance $ 89,435 Staff recommended approval of the proposed FY 1992-199.3 motel /.Motel budget. In response to Councilman Stewart's question, Spinas said the City of Round Rock will be hosting the Sertoma Softball Girls Tournament next year but enough money was made not to submit a request for hotel/motel funds. The Chamber of Commerce will still help in any way to make the tournament once again successful. In response to Councilman Morgan's question, Sharon Prete said the request for festival improvements is for the electrical system used for the Police Association BBQ Cook -off plus additional work needed to improve the area for other activities.

The Garden Park Apartment complex, formerly Chateau Square on North Mays, was recently renovated. For years this complex had been plagued by seiner problems. It was believed that the complex was the sole contributor to a wastewater service lateral located south of the complex which proceeds approximately 600 feet to the Onion Creek Interceptor. This line was in poor condition and replaced by the owner of the complex, as a requirement by the City. After exposing the line, it was discovered that this service not only provided wastewater collection to the apartment complex, but also several duplex and fourplex units in anion Creek Tillage as well as a commercial building on what would be the extension of old Bowman Road west of North Mays Street. These connections were made in the 1970's and no records, were }sept regarding their use and location. This lime should be considered as a City collection line. Staff recommended that the City of Round Rock reimburse the owner of the complex their $11,500 costs.

Main Stre'et. ROLL CALL: Those members present were Mayor Mike Robinson, Mayor Pro -tem Charles Culpepper, Councilman Robert Stluka, Councilman Rick Stewart, Councilman Earl Palmer and Councilman Jimmy Joseph. Councilman Rod Morgan was out of town on business. Also present were City Manager Bob Bennett, Assistant City Manager/City Secretary Joanne Land and City Attorney Steve Sheets. WORK SESSION: 3.A. Consider discussion concerning the creation of an Advisory Board for the Aging. Joanne Land made the staff presentation. She said, "Mayor Robinson, Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper and Councilman Morgan have been meeting for several months with a group of senior citizens. One of the wishes of the group is to establish an Advisory Board for the Aging which will provide a communication link between the Council and senior citizens." The Board will also recommend programs and activities for the seniors as well as seek information on funding sources to expand services and facilities. The Board, as requested by the seniors, will consist of seven (7) members who reside in the city limits and be over 62 years of age or a volunteer serving some related senior service organization. The Board will meet on a quarterly basis or upon the request of two or more board members or at the request of the Council. If the Board is created as recommended, appointments will be placed at the November 24, 1992 meeting. The Council briefly discussed the age requirement of an eligible member to serve on the board. 3.8. Consider discussion concerning _vendors in the public right-of-way. Joe Vining made the staff presentation. This item was brought before the Council in response to citizen complaints and concerns from the Highway Department about vendors selling their goods in the public right of way. This proposed ordinance is for the purpose of selling, storing or displaying goods or services for sale, lease, or for soliciting donations without a permit issued by the City Secretary. This ordinance would fit right into the City's current peddler's license. Vining added this ordinance I", November 12, 1992 was drafted for the Council's comment's and discussion and will give the City staff the ability to help regulate this type of activity and it would prohibit people from any type of selling or vending in the public right of way. Councilman Stluka requested that a better clarification be added under the exceptions section for high school groups. There was discussion pertaining to newspaper stands in the right of way along with other examples of selling in the right of way. 3.c. Consider discussion concerning senior citizen water rates. David Kautz made the staff presentation. Currently a substantial discount is offered to those heads of household who have an account with the City upon reaching the age of 65, at that point the rate is reduced back to a level that was in effect in 1986. Using an average consumption pattern for water and wastewater that equates to about a 38% discount. Kautz presented the following options for discussion. 1 obtaining a proper rate through the Senior Citizens Advisory Board. 2) Do away entirely with the discount program. 3) If it removed increase the rate for those accounts currently on it by a certain percentage. 4) Establish a Lifeline Program whereby a certain amount would be paid out by individuals each month which would then be contributed to a fund. That fund would then be transferred to an agency that would offer financial assistance to our customers in need. The current policy that goes into effect at age 65 does not address any form of need so there maybe some merit in establishing this type of program based on financial need rather than demographics or age. 5) Do away with the program but grandfather those accounts currently on the program. Currently there are 600 accounts on this program and that discount equates to $120,000 a year. Staff projections for next year are 700 accounts which equate to $140,000. Discussion followed on the options concerning the senior November 12, 1992 citizens water rates. The Council directed staff to provide figures concerning the number of individuals and single mothers that would be in need of financial assistance; and to contact the other utility companies and acquire any figures they have concerning those individuals, that live within the city limits, that need financial assistance. The Council asked staff to find out how much was collected from the other utility company's customers to help these people. Councilman Stluka requested specific examples of cities where money is being collected to help people in financial need. Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper asked staff to figure the monthly average bill and utility usage of the current 600 accounts. 3.D. Consider discussion concerning the creation of an Environmental Advisory Board. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. The purpose of the Board is to represent the community and make recommendations to the City Council on matters pertaining to issues relative to the environment. The Board shall consist on seven (7) members, who reside within the city limits of Round Rock that would serve a two year term. one member should have experience or knowledge in municipal planning and zoning; one member should have experience or knowledge in the field of engineering; one member should have experience or knowledge in the field of education; one member should have experience or knowledge in the industrial or manufacturing sector of the local economy; one member should have experience or knowledge in the field of energy; and two members who have demonstrated an interest in environmental issues. Nuse went over the duties of the Board. He added the Board shall be advisory in nature and have no authority to obligate the City in any financial way nor have the authority to make expenditures of City funds. The Board shall not request any work done on its own authority nor promise the citizens that work will be done. Nuse added this Board was at the recommendation of the Environmental Task Force. 3.E. City Manager's_ Bob Bennett informed the Council that the Presentation made by staff to the Oak Bluff homeowners on Tuesday, November 10, 1992, will be made during the public hearing portion of the meeting. 102 3.F.

Ronald Pepin, 903 Oaklands Drive, requested that a four way stop sign be placed at Oaklands Drive and Clearwater Trail.

Consider a presentation of a Water Pollution Abatement Plan Agreement between the City of Round Rock and the Texas Water Commission. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. Round Rock and the Texas Water Commission are nearing completion of an inter -local agreement regarding review of Water Pollution Abatement Plans by Round Rock. Under the terms of the agreement Round Rock may, at it's option, review Water Pollution Abatement Plans, sewer lines, and above ground storage tanks for regulated development within our jurisdiction. The permit fee would be $2,000, a 50/50 cost with the State with a two year contract. This opportunity would efficiently set a priority for our customers and businesses in town. This item will be brought back in two weeks for Council action. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 10.A. Consider Public testimony concerning the involuntary annexation of Oak Bluff Estates Phase 11 (177.682 acre tract of land). 10.B. Consider public testimony concerning the involqatar- annexation of Oak Bluff Estates Phase 1 (50,06 acre tract of Land) Bob Bennett went over the Oak Bluff Estates annexation time table. He noted a second public hearing was scheduled for November 19, 1992 at 5.30 p.m. The meeting is being held at 5:30 pm. Because the Planning and Zoning Commission had already scheduled a 7:00 p.m. meeting. The Council instructed staff to include a work session at the December 10, 1.992 meeting. Other than that there was no change to the schedule. Bennett went over the attached presentation which was given to the homeowners of Oak Bluff on Tuesday, November 10, 1992. Bennett said, "there have been a few modifications to the presentation." November 12, 19922 Joe Vining outlined the service plan. He said the State law requires the City to provide a service plan for annexations. Four items the State requires a City to provide are for water and wastewater service, Fire and Police protection immediately upon annexation or a specific plan that shows the timing of the provision of the water and wastewater service. The fifth item, maintenance of existing public facilities, is covered by normally budgeted city-wide maintenance funds. Bennett clarified that the City of Round Rock, according to it's Master Plan for water and wastewater, would run at the City's cost a major transmission main up County Road 122 to hook into the subdivision so that the homeowners could be availed City water at no expense. There is a major line that will be built down Highway 79 over time that would loop the system and make the system very strong on the east side of town where major growth is expected. This would also require no expenditure on the homeowners part. He said there is approximately 12 acres of land that has been dedicated for park land along Brushy Creek but is currently in Hutto's ETJ. The City would pledge to work with the City of Hutto if that's the resident's desire to get the park land into the city limits of Round Rock so that the City could develop that as park land for the neighborhood. Bennett explained that every resident of Round Rock has paid or will pay a capital recovery fee for wastewater that goes to provide central capacity at the wastewater plant and only bears part of the cost not all of the cost. Donna Foster, 2 Wilderness Way, Oak Bluff Estates, Phase 2 presented the Council with copies of a petition signed by 99% of the residents of Oak Bluff Estates against annexation. Foster asked, "What I'd like to know is what am Ir going to get from you? We are going to give you approximately one hundred dollars a month per household. What is our return on that investment?" Foster concluded by saying, "if we are annexed we will be heard on every major issue. I urge you not to annex us until you can do so responsibly." Mayor Robinson said the Council would not try to answer questions brought during the public hearing but would like to address those at the work session after the second public hearing. 106 November 12, 1992 He apologized for not going above and beyond the public hearing notification requirements. Pat Birdsall, 13 Hillway, Oak Bluff 2, said he wanted to address responsible annexation. Birdsall thanked Bob Bennett and Jim Nuse for meeting with the Homeowners Tuesday night. He said he had not seen a viable strategic plan for the services to be provided. "The service plan doesnt put definite dates on what you are trying to do. There is no real strong commitment for service in a timing that's comparable to the amount of money that your basically taking out of our subdivision and out of our pockets." Birdsall concluded, "Basically we're picking up and stepping into Round Rock and helping with the 55% of our tax base going toward debt service. That debt service is to pay for fire stations and roads that are already there. Seems to me like you could have provided those a little closer to the time when were getting annexed and begin to pay for that. If you could borrow money for the rest of the folks in Round Rock you ought to be able to borrow some of it to provide the services for us in a more timely manner." Dennis ustare, 43 Stillmeadow, Oak Bluff 2, said, "Round Rock wants growth in • area, so they annex us so they can tax us to pay about six hundred thousand dollars for a water main they wouldn't need if there wasn't growth in our area. Now this seems like a strange form of logic to me and I would just like to suggest. that you question some of your assumptions about growth. Also I would like you to look at the question as to whether growth is necessary or even whether growth is desirable." Sustare ended his comments by saying, "I hope you all vote against annexation for Oak Rick Maynard, 13 Meandering Way, stated, TTI am against involuntary annexation of Oak Bluff in fact I resent and take exception to the implicit's by the city spokesman Mr. Vining in articles by Mr. Hampton of the Leader that Oak Bluff residents are a bunch of freeloaders using your city streets parks and library while giving nothing in return to the City of Round Rock, I submit to you that the City in pursuing this annexation is really the freeloaders seeking money to pay off bad investments for relief of City debt." Maynard concluded, "I urge all you gentlemen to respect the wishes of the residents of Oak Bluff and vote against the involuntary annexation." points: "1) there are 113 homes adjacent and surrounding Oak Bluff that currently are not annexed and are not in any annexation plans. I would ask the Council why are you ignoring these people who drive play and use city services. I'm talking about Wildflower Trail, Jack Rabbit Run, Red Bud Acres, Woodhollow Trail, Wildwood, Old Oaks, Greenville and County Road 122. Let me answer that the City would be required to provide a water system for these people, Oak Bluff requires nothing. 2) Brushy Creek North has been asking to pay city taxes since 1991. 1 would ask the Council why is the City ignoring these people who drive play and use city services. Let me answer that Brushy Creek North annexation area cost the City for the MUD debt. Oak Bluff residents pay these kind of costs without a loss. 3) Non -city folk do impact the city services. These people of Oak Bluff provide a significant boost to the Round Rock business district by means of purchasing goods and services on a regular basis. 4) The Oak Bluff community also provides a resource pool of volunteers." Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper informed Mr. Reynolds that the CitY was waiting for an opinion from the Attorney General on the splitting of a MUD and who would be responsible for the debt in regard to the comment about Brushy Creek North. Frank Gover, 6 Meadow Way, Oak Bluff, asked, "What would be the expense for raising taxes in that area? Is that going to promote growth?" Gover said he did a study on available facts. He used transparencies to explain the study. A copy is attached. Bill Foster, 2 Wilderness Way, talked about three items. "First we have a rather large debt with our water and wastewater. I feel responsible annexation would be for you to take the debt, then you can take us in and that would make everybody happy because that would be responsible. Second, we have a promise for a fire station in three to five years. I feel that the fire service we have is adequate. If you were going to be responsible and annexing us you would give a fire station first and then annex us. Don't ask us to pay taxes for something we don't have. The third issue I 108 would like to briefly talk about is Oak Bluff did have a club house, swimming pool, and tennis courts and a golf course to use. We no longer have that thanks to the City in selling it. I feel 4:1 L you are going to be responsible you'll find a way to get back our club house, swimming pool and other facilities. It was primaril, .7 built for the Oak Bluff residents and I feel we should have that back." Doug Wilcox, 22 Meandering Way, Oak Bluff, said he and his wife "are vigorously opposed to the proposed annexation of our neighborhood. I suppose that we wouldn't feel this way if the annexation plan was the result of a responsible and caring growth program endorsed by the Council. The fact is that this annexation is solely based on greed. We moved to the area because of the amenities, the country setting, large lots, the lack of city taxes, and city interference," Wilcox continued, " I've learned that Forest Creek Golf Club, not once but at least twice in the past year that I am aware of, hosted golfing tournaments where topless women were a part of the tournament. In one case these women were clearly visible from the road that goes through the golf course and. according to some sources one of these events was shown in some context on CNN television. Now I ask you how responsible is this." Wilcox said, IV people are frequently called upon by the-ir corporations to make recommendations as to areas that would be good locations for people to live when relocated to this area. These recommendations are taken very seriously by those companies and quite often companies will network with one another on the pros and cons of locating to a certain area. I feel very confident that such recommendations will not be given for the Round Rock area, based on the information that has and will be presented tonight." Lane Burnett, 90 Woodland, said she felt that the City has been irresponsible and unfair in their approach to annexation. She continued by saying, "I don't think it's good government and I think it's created a lot of resentment by the residents of Oak Bluff. So therefore I hope that you will step back vote no at this time address our concerns and then lets move forward and see if we can't come to an agreement." November 12, 1992 Keith Thomas, 5 Oakview, said, "I think the main concern is that we have right now is that you folks really have not established a dialogue with our community and our feeling is that there is no up front communication being done. If you annex us you're going to inherit a neighborhood, you will inherit a neighborhood with 300 or more unhappy customers and 'that's not good government. There's been no dialogue. We don't feel that you have been up front with us. No dialogue, you get no support from us. If there is dialogue there may be support later on." Dick Sheppard, 1307 Hunters Trail, Mr. Sheppard passed out a letter summarizing his concerns and the said, "We plan to be here for a long haul and we don't want you to impact our future. Just a couple of things I've -noticed are the taxes in northwest hills, on a house that's larger than the one I'm in now in an area with amenities, a bus at the door, everything I need, the taxes are less than what the current taxes are in Oak Bluff today. So I'm asking you to consider and take a responsible look at what you are doing here. Don't look at today, don't look at your bottom line on your budget today, this year or next year, look at the future. Tie need people to move into Round Rock. We don't want to inhibit that and I can tell you this type of action will inhibit that. So I ask you to vote no on the annexation for Oak Bluff." Kathy Sammons, 1 Meandering Way, said she felt two issues were important. One being creditability and one being responsible annexation. Mrs. Sammons stressed, "Let's get our facts straight before you come to the table. You don't have your facts, you have a lot of generalized terms and I really think that's irresponsible. You have a creditability issue and if you are going to treat us 4 this way to bring us in for annexation how are you going to treat us afterwards? And I appeal to you see all these people here I certainly think that you would rather have them with you than agin ya. if Andreas Schreyer, 4 Wilderness Way, Oak Bluff Phase 2, was concerned about long term urban growth and opposed the annexation until "some plans are formalized." Carmen Cover, 6 Meadow Way, said,"I believe that this involuntary annexation is not a good example of democracy and after 110 November 12, 1992 listening to the plans that' the City of Round Rock have for our neighborhood, I found that the plans have a lack of responsibility and creditability." John Rodriguez of Southside Acres said, "just wanted to let the residents of Oak Bluff know that in 1967 the City of Round Rock annexed our neighborhood. It's been twenty --five years, we're still waiting for our fire hydrants, flooding control, and our paved streets. That's all I have to say." Lamar Urbanousky, 78 Twin Ridge Parkway, said he had not received firm answers on what will happen to County Road 122, County Road 123, the Country Club, the water system, fire protection or streets, He concluded, "I think all these issues need to be addressed in a logical way and have some answers before its put before use That's all I have to say." Dawn Purcell, 8 Woodland Loop, expressed her concern about the Oak Bluff water system and how the water situation will be handled. There being no further public testimony, Mayor Robinson closed the public hearing at 8:30 p.m. Mayor Robinson said he appreciated the residents for, taking time to address the, Council on their concerns. Prior to the! December 10th meeting a work session will be held so the Council can address questions raised. He added staff will continue to meet ,reek Joint Venture to rezone 21.619 acres of land (South Creek 4J section 8) from District TF (Two-Fgmily_Residential) to Di Str4C - J. SF -2 (Single Family Residential). Joe Vining made the staff presentation. The duplex zoning of South Creek Sect -ion Eight, has become out modeled because of changing roadway assumptions and market response. In turn, the developer has requested single family zoning and now proposes to develop 87 SF -2 lots. The Public Works Department has recommended a shift of Chestnut Path to the west in order to deepen the lots lying on the east side to compensate for a water main that crosses all of the lots north to south in the rear. This will also mean shifting Redwood Trace the same distance to the west in order to preserve lot depths in Block D. This recommendation will result in the loss of one lot, giving November 12, 1992 a new total of 87 lots. The developer understands these ramifications and is fully prepared to produce the final plat according to those specifications. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning request. Mayor Robinson opened the public hearing. There being no public testimony the public hearing was closed. 10.D. Consider public testimony concerning an ordinance to regulate smoking in public Places. Joanne Land made the staff presentation. This is a public hearing to receive citizens input concerning the proposed "no smoking" ordinance.

Main Street. ROLL CALL: Those members present were Mayor Pro -tem Charles Culpepper, Councilman Rick Stewart, Councilman Earl Palmer and Councilman Jimmy Joseph. Mayor Mike Robinson, Councilman Robert Stluka and Councilman Rod Morgan were out of town on business. Also present were City Manager Bob Bennett, Assistant City Manager/City Secretary Joanne Land and City Attorney Steve Sheets. Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper directed staff to add a public hearing along with a work session item to the December 10th City Council agenda. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 3-A. Consider public testimony concerning the involuntary annexation of Oak Bluff Estates Phase 11 (177.682 acre tract of land). 3.B. Consider Public testimony concerning the involuntary annexation of Oak Bluff Estates Phase 1(50.06 acre tract of land). Joe Vining made the staff presentation. Vining summarized a clarification of the following issues brought up at the last public hearing. "Water/Wastewater A majority of the testimony was on the existing utility system at Oak Bluff. The city prefers to provide service to Oak Bluff Estates. Staff is currently negotiating for the transfer of the assets and debts of the system to the City. That will involve considerable work on both parties because there is a certificate in place and if we were to reach an agreement on that we would have to go through a decertification process with the Texas Water Commission and possibly 6-8 months of timing in order to afford all that transfer. If the City serves Oak Bluff as the primary provider, in -city utility rates would apply and capital recovery fees would not be required on those existing customers that are already on line, both water and wastewater. Fire Protection The City is required by law to provide service within two months of the annexation. This service will begin immediately after the annexation is passed. Primary service will be from the Central Fire Station, that is our fastest response 122 November 19, 1992 time to the site. However, back UP will be from station No. 2 or 3 depending on the circumstances. Concerns were expressed about the train and we understand that. We have to deal with that every, day inside the City so, our department is very well versed on how to provide the fastest response time depending on the condition. The Gattis School Road Station as you know not only is currently funded and we have been paying debt on it ever since 1987 when that bond issue was passed but as you recall we purchased the site on Gattis School Road a couple of months ago and further we have made a recent purchase of apparatus so when that station is constructed not only do we have funds in the bank to build the station but the apparatus to place in the fire truck. The timing for the construction of that station is anticipated to occur by 1995. The key insurance rate would be cut in half, making the fire insurance coverage for the residents somewhat cheaper. Police Protection The State law requires that we have to provide that protection equal to.City protection within 60 days of annexation. We will begin immediately upon annexation. Proceeding with regular, neighborhood patrols which will be as they, are in the in -city neighborhoods. The neighborhood watch program will be continued and assisted by neighborhood personnel, Sgt. Koble. The 9-1-1 emergency service would be through our own dispatcher to clear-up the transfer up from the County back and forth and speed up the process. Public Works/Streets There are numerous questions about the maintenance and who would assume the responsibilities. All the streets and those drainage easements dedicated by plat would become the responsibility of the City and will be in our maintenance responsibility beginning with the annexation. The Council knows staff is currently working to obtain some State and Federal funds for reconstruction of all of County Road 122. However, minor work will be done as we finish up on the wastewater line there. County Road 123, that's the main entrance on the northside, staff is mindful on the condition of that road. Right now that road and the land on either side of County Road 123 is in the Hutto ETJ because those landowners petitioned into Hutto some years ago when we were trying to close the gap to keep Austin from going around us. If W -M Hutto is of mind to release that land to our ETJ we would certainly put_ _it , in our CIP for upgrade. Traffic signage becomes the responsibility of the City upon annexation, that's maintenance as well as the erection of the signs. Parks Pecan Grove Park off County Road 123 is also in the ETJ of Hutto, however, if that is released the City will accept that as one of our neighborhood parks and will take over the maintenance of it and further development. The street median maintenance will be performed by Parks and Recreation to our City standards. What we have heard from the neighborhood is that the current standard is much higher than what we do in our normal maintenance program. We hope they elect to maintain it as they are and keep it in their homeowners group." This concluded Vining's presentation. Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper opened the public hearing. Allen Grim, 33 Meadow Run, quoted from the Austin American statesman, "Robinson said the timing is right for Oak Bluff to join the City but added we don't want to annex a bunch of people who don't understand and absolutely don't want to be in the City. Grim made three points. "1) 1 think that within the last two weeks Oak Bluff residents have given you, the City Council our views on annexation, that view being an emphatic no." "2) That the City could gain a great deal of money in new taxes and not really spend a dime to get it." "3) 1 only moved here 3 1/2 months ago. I don't know anything about any of you gentlemen personally or politically but I think I'm about to find out a little about all of you. Were the Mayor's words true or were they falsehood, I guess we'll find out in December." Nathan Gibson, 3 Hillview, said he was speaking against annexation. He feels that the Oak Bluff residents are paying for the infrastructure twice. "There's not enough money there to add services so to me it just doesn't add up to a win win at this point in time. Kay Thomas, 5 Oakview, went over state wide standards on duties of a school board member because "I see a strong correlation the duties and responsibilities of City Councilmembers." Thomas 124 November 19, 1992 concluded, "I, respect, the Mayor',s apology. at- the last "public forum for the failure to effectively communicate with the Oak Bluff neighborhood, for the City Manager's effort at the public forum to correct misinformation which was given to the neighborhood in the November 2nd meeting and offers to initiate dialogue with the neighborhood following the last public forum. I would like to suggest, however, that had the Council followed a basic set of standards such as those which locally elected school boards adhere to we would not need to'be in such_a confrontation at this time." Dennis Sustare, 43 Stillmeadow, said, you're asking me to pay or will be asking me to pay about $100 a month extra. I feel this is an unreasonable burden to put on me personally." Jim Sadlow, 56 Woodland Loop, stated that the City was not, in his opinion, in negotiation with the Round Rock Water Company. Be felt that the scheduled annexation "is premature just basically due to the amenities we have in our subdivision. We can discuss the differential services until we are blue in the face but the bottom line is the services we are currently getting are adequate for our needs at least at present. We're really here tonight because we believe the lack of real City, that is real residential and commercial areas between us and downtown Round Rock, doesn't exist and what the city is doing is reaching over a bunch of vacant land to grab something that's very convenient. This is what we refer to as plain irresponsible annexation. When the growth in the corridor is significant for annexation and Round Rock annexes significant urban areas between Oak Bluff and the current City then subsequent annexation of Oak Bluff would seem logical and would be easier to handle on the part of the residents because it follows a City that's being responsible to it's obligations to serve the public." Jane Maynard, 13 Meandering Way, expressed her concern about the allegations of nude women catering to golfers at the Round Rock public golf course. Maynard said, "these are more than allegations, residents have witnessed these actions in the clubhouse, on the greens, from the road and in charter buses leaving the golf course. Maynard concluded, "the Oak Bluff residents encourage you to finally accept responsibility and demonstrate your integrity in voting against the inequitable and November 19, 1992 unjust annexation of Oak Bluff Estates." Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper responded that as far as the topless golf tournaments none of the Council happen to be out there when it happened but as soon as it was brought to the Council's attention, Council responded. Frank Sammons, 1 Meandering Way, also addressed his concern with the alleged topless golf tournament. Betty Fowler, 24 Meadow Run, said "I don't want to be taxed for something I'm not getting. I know when I'm being screwed and when I'm not and so far that's what your trying to do make us pay for taxes for services your not going to give us. In short if we are involuntary annexed into the City of Round Rock I am going to vote in May and I will look on that ballot and if I see any of the names up here on the ballot for reelection this is one voter you cannot count on." Steve Fowler, 28 Meadow Run, stated "I don't need to be part of your City to be a good neighbor and 1 don't want to be a part of the City because I don't need your .services but I will support your charities, things that you cannot do— for your City and the surrounding areas." John Dillard, 14 Forest Mesa, said "I was told the first part of this week there would be some new dams put in for control of the water. If they put these dams in for flood control fields it's going to change the underground Aquifer water on the people on the north end of the area. If this happens there's a lot of foundations that are gonna be either cracked or damaged because of this extra water pressure. It's gonna occur when water builds up in these dams. I would suggest you consider very extensively looking at these projects before you approve them." Howard Widmer, 8 Oakview, made four comments in reference to the involuntary annexation. "1) I'm opposed to the annexation since the primary benefits outlined are only for the City of Round Rock. 2) in my daily job I'm in contact with numerous elected county and city officials. In discussions with city finance individuals 100% of them have agreed that this is not a responsible sensible approach to growth for a City. 3) 1 encourage you to vote no to annexation at this time. To establish a task force for responsible in* November 19, 1992 annexation. It could consist of City representatives, the Water Corporation representatives, representatives of Phase 1 and 2 and establish a plan for responsible planned annexation. 4) This really doesn't apply to you but it does apply to the area since this involuntary annexation has received news coverage from Austin to Lubbock to Bryan College Station and many other areas. It is nice to see that the Round Rock Leader and I quote "Leader" has followed and reports the same stories. Hopefully, the citizens of Round Rock will realize what is going on in Round Rock." Carol Hall, 96 Woodland Loop, stated, "I hope this Council will choose to listen to the choice that the Oak Bluff residents have made and not force your action down our throats where at this time it is not wanted." Carol Parker, 10 Meandering Way, said "I have friends that live on Joyce Lane. Five years ago they were taken into the City of Round Rock. They met with several managers of the City for over a period of several weeks and were finally convinced to accept the annexation of their homesandthey are large homes some have pools on 8 acres of land those .are large residences out there. They were promised some of the very same things in their proposal as we have been promised in ours. Now that was the last they have seen or, heard from the City. 'Their fire hydrant is at the end of the street which is at the corner of Joyce Lane and Gattis School Road. In the event of a fire the Round Rock City Fire Department cannot service them because the hose on the fire trucks are too short and they cannot reach the homes. They have been told in the event of a fire they have to call the County to service them. Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper asked Ms. Parker to contact the City Manager and relay the names of the residents on Joyce Lane since the Council was surprised by the accusations concerning fire protection. Wayne Goodrum, 5 Oakmoore, stated "I think that government action should be taken only when it can be done responsibly when it can be done fairly and when it's in the public interest. The action which I've seen being taken towards the annexation of Oak Bluff Estates appears to lack responsibility. The proposal was initiated without any information into or consideration of the �m needs and the interest -of the residents in the area. There's been no consideration of the impact of this annexation on the existing City residents that I can see. Without an addition of police, fire, street maintenance personnel and equipment provision of these services in our area obviously has to detract from the provision where those personnel existing are currently working. Let me just simply close that it may be technically legal to do this but it doesn't make it fair." Kathy Sammons, 1 Meandering Way, said "when somebody is going to dip into my pocket and take $1200 out and say by the way I'm not going to give you anything for it I think I have a right to be upset. We have a lot of retired people and I feel sorry for them. This is the most horrible thing I have ever seen happen in such a short time. Talk about railroading things and people. Not one of the issues that have been brought up have been addressed. You have to get what you have right now under control before you seek out more. No one is saying they don't want to be a City resident all they are saying is that they want to be a city resident when they are a part of the City and we're not a part of the City being out that far with no services. So let's not put the cart before the horse." Tom Purcell, 8 Woodland Loop, stated, "if you wait just a couple of years you are going to have the population out there and z much bigger tax base. I think you are much .- wait." e wait." Rick Maynard, 13 Meandering Way, said, "I really didn't intend to speak tonight but there's something that's been bothering me for about a week other than the fact that I'm going to spend an extra $100 a month. It's that first impressions are long lasting and frankly my first impression of you gentlemen is not very favorable. I feel that you were trying to slip this annexation under the table because from the no notice hurry through annexation proceedings of the first ordinance reading to the scheduling and changing of the start times of the meetings and of the hearing we are having right now. Why would you guys set a 5:30 p.m. meeting for something like this knowing it's inconvenient to people who work. Also I get here tonight and there are only 4 Councilmembers present and we have to November 19, 1992 do this again on December _10th.—Our, time is- just as valuable as your time maybe more. I really don't appreciate the time change of this meeting and the absence of Councilmembers." Mayor Pro -tem Culpepper responded to the absence question and confirmed the next public hearing time and date. Councilman Palmer explained that the Planning and Zoning Commission normally meets on this particular Thursday at 7:00 p.m. and that's why the meeting was always set for 5:30 p.m. Maynard continued that first impressions are lasting and he may forget name and faces but there are seven names that will stay on his refrigerator. Nyle Maxwell, 26 Wilderness Way, said "a thought occurred to me and I remembered back to this summer when I stood up before you on a different issue. It's called baseball and it was an emotional issue as this one is. It was a taxing issue, as this one is, and we and my group decided ithis summer for the benefit of the citizens of Round Rock and on the advice of the City Council of Round Rock to withdraw our request for a taxing issue because we were told time and time again that this was such an emotional issue it could and would polarize the community of Round Rock. I submit to you this afternoon that this is what we are doing. We are polarizing a lot of the citizens, the future citizens of Round Rock. There may be 30,000 people in this City but there have been active politically less than 3,000 and in some Council elections less than 1,200. You have got 300 very potentially active neighbors living in Oak Bluff Estates right now. If you annex Phases 1 & 2 of Oak Bluff Estates you will further polarize this community." John Rodriguez, 100 Rubio Drive, Southside Acres, said he was speaking on behalf of Southside Acres. He distributed photos of his neighborhood. "Our subdivision is an excellent example of irresponsible pocket lining annexation tactics currently practiced by the City of Round Rock. Since annexation, we've built our own water breaks, bridge, added plenty of gravel rocks, concrete and done anything that we could to combat the lack of -proper drainage which the City should have fixed as part of the annexation agreement. When it comes to delivering services the City delivers firemen and sandbags. It is time that our tax dollars come back to 129 November 19, 1992 the taxpayers instead of for bad management decisions. The time has come for responsibility, accountability, and a change to single member districts representation." John Reynolds, 31 Meadow Run, agreed with Mr. Rodriguez. The next Public Hearing will, be December 10th at 7:00 p.m. with a work session beginning at 6:00 'p.m. , There being no further public testimony, the public hearing was closed.

WORK SESSION:, 4.A. Consider discussion concerning- senior citizen Water and' Wastewater utility rates. Jim Muse made the staff presentation. He offered an update on the senior citizen water and wastewater utility rates. The current policy concerning senior citizen utility rates is costing the City approximately $125,000 a year and increasing each year. The Finance Department surveyed sixteen (16) local cities and found that they did not have a program similar to Round Rock's. The following options were recommended to the Council: 1) Those currently on the program would remain on the program. Many senior citizens are on a fixed income and have budgeted this discount accordingly. 2) Discontinue the program and expand an appropriate legislation. 3) Provide for acceptance of voluntary contributions through the water bills. These funds would be distributed through the Community Service Council similar to the way it's done with TU vim Electric except the funds would be only for Round Rock residents water and wastewater bills. 4) Currently there is a medicaid rate on the books which could remain. Anyone that qualifies for medicaid would receive that rate. Councilman Joseph quoted some contribution figures from TU Electric and Lone Star Gas. Mayor Robinson noted that the City needs to address those who really need the help and not just a certain segment of the SMEMEMM Mayor Robinson informed the Council a decision did not need to be made at the moment.

D a v i c-1 Kautz made the staff presentation. He informed the Council that the City has an opportunity to upgrade the pension plan offered to City employees. December 10, 1992 The Current Plan: 5% Employee Contribution, 1.5 to 1 City Matching Ratio and Updated Service Credit (1990): Proposed Upgrade: 5% Employee Contribution, 2 to 1 City Matching Ratio, Updated Service Credit (199/0-; Renewable). The pro -posed upgrade would be on an annual renewal basis. Cost of this upgrade would require a budget increase of approximately $52,000 annually. The Benef-it/Health Insurance Team was able to achieve a savings of approximately $60,000 annually on the health insurance plan. The Team recommended to apply that savings to upgrade the retirement benefit as it was presented. Kautz explained the following reasons for the Proposed upgrade. 1) A well --structured pension plan that is competitive with plans offered by similar employers is an effective employee recruitment and retention tool. 2) The plan proposed above is offered by 46% of the more than 600 cities participating in the TMRS, Out of 59 cities Possessing similar characteristics to Round Rock., 55 of them offer the proposed plan.. 3) The relatively young age of current City employees and few retirees make the proposed upgrades more affordable than they would be in the future as the staff ages. Additionally, the average cost to cities offering this plan is 8.1% of payroll. The cost to Round Rock would be 5.83% of payroll, a direct result of the City's current average employee age.

Thomas summarized why they were against the involuntary annexation. lie said he felt the process is the problem. Thomas suggested the Round Rock Water Corporation and the 146 December 10, 1992 City get together and talk about water for Oak Bluff. He felt', polarization was a "major issue right now," Thomas went over SOME! other issues "regardi,ng when and if the fire station will be ready L and whether or not services are going to be taken away from the rest of Round Rock" to provide services to Oak Bluff. Thomas repeated the main points of conversations held with various Counci 1 members during discussions over the past week. Thomas concluded, "let's delay this annexation. Lets put it off. Let's; form a commission. Let's talk, Let's have dialogue. Let's have communication and let's work toward a responsible annexation."

VOTE: Ayes: Councilman St'luka Councilman Morgan Councilman Stewart Councilman Joseph Mayor Robinson Noes: None ACTION: The motion carried unanimously. 9.B, Consider an ordinance orathePro osed annexation of Oak Bluff Estates Phase !1 (194.41 acre tract of land), (First Readiiiq) Councilman Palmer made the following statement. "This has IMA December 10, 1.992 been a very tough situation for all of us. Those of us who sit here on the Council, and I'm sure many of you are really concerned, I've been called everything from egotistical, illegitimate, to equine appendage for those people out there who use big words. I've been threatened by my job. I'm thankful my family hasn't been threatened but in other cases it has. I personally would like to ask the people if they would accept annexation within twelve months. Would you accept annexation in twelve months?" Keith Thomas said he was not "prepared right now to answer that question. We can't tell you tonight if we'll agree to it a year from now. We may have some folks who might stand up and never vote for annexation. You also might have a good group who stands up and says we are ready to be annexed but I want us to sit down and talk and have some dialogue. I think that's what we are asking for up front." Councilman Palmer then concluded, "I believe that I would have to say if you're not ready to accept annexation next year that I'm ready to vote, whether you threaten me with my job or whatever, to annex you tonight." Councilman Stluka made the following statement. "I think if we want to go through with the annexation of the areas of Oak duff, that we're talking about, then it's imperative, in my opinion, that we follow an orderly process and give everyone involved the opportunity to lay all the cards on the table. Look at some of the issues I keep hearing about but have never been laid out in front of this Council totally, I believe, that if we go through this process then we're not going to have these problems in twelve months. That we can make it very positive and proactive. I think that if we do approach this in such way that we've given ourselves, and the residents of Oak Bluff, every opportunity to address each issue and then when we have done that, whether there's a consensus or not between the two Parties, that at least we have laid the ground work to pursue whatever action we desire. I passed out a memorandum to each of you a week or so ago that was asking you to consider, between then and now, withdrawing this issue completely from the agenda for this year and in doing so had also asked the Mayor to consider appointing a three member Council R -M December 1.0, 1992 committee to meet with appointed representatives of both the, neighborhood homeowner groups and the Water Supply Board as well to lead this discussion the first meeting in January or start out at least in the early part of January to start addressing this issue and set a specific schedule," Councilman Stluka continued by stressing the need for "some very specific guidelines" concerning the involuntary or voluntary annexation of any area. He also said, he felt the Oak Bluff issue could not be completely addressed in 90 days because of the holiday schedule, Councilman Stluka concluded, "In closing I respectfully, again request, the Council to please consider withdrawing this issue from the agenda tonight and by what ever means we legally can do so. That the Mayor appo4 nt a committee our first Council meeting in January to work with staff to develop an annexation policy and to meet with appointed representatives of the homeowners association in both areas of the Oak Bluff Estates and the Water Supply Corporation," Mayor Robinson said that the legal options before the Council were to table, to pass, or to fail the ordinance. Councilman Stewart said, "I see no benefit to be gained by delaying the process. We can vote tonight up or down and if any dialogue needs to be taken, may very well follow tonights vote before it comes up for the second reading. The second reading does not necessarily have to occur at the next meeting. The second reading can occur at any reasonable time frame and I think a reasonable time frame is a 90 day time frame within the law. I recommend that we vote for or against it tonight on the first reading; then we will decide where to pursue your recommendations, how to pursue them or whether to pursue them before it comes up for a second reading. 711 h a n k y o -u " It was clarified by Mr. Sheets that the second reading of the ordinance or the second vote has to take place within 90 days "from tonight." That date being March 10, 1993. It was determined the 90 days would be cut back considerably due to holidays and Council meeting schedules. Further discussion occurred concerning various options the Council had regarding disposition of the ordinance. If the Council wanted a date specific for the area to be annexed that date would am aeed to be incorporated in the presented ordinance. Councilman Morgan made the following statement, "I've thought and thought and thought on this issue. I've talked to many of the property owners out there. Talked to the City staff. I've thought, thought and distilled those thoughts on this issue. I'm in the real estate business. I understand the issues are going on out there. I'm convinced that, that area is in the strategic plan for the City of Round Rock. The golf course is there for the sole purpose of encouraging growth in that area. It could have been in many other locations. We're providing sewer service out there to protect the environment; to protect Brushy Creek; to keep control over how that is handled. We've spent a lot of money to make what's actually out there happen. Water is going to be a continued problem out there without a dependable reliable source. We have that source. This is a tough decision to make and I don't think I'd want anyone else up here having to go through what we are having to and deal with a lot of the criticism. I've spent four hours alone out of my work day today working on behalf of the City of Round Rock and trying to improve it to best of our ability. I don't think anyone should doubt the sincerity of the people sitting tip here working on behalf of the City. This is a pocket book issue I understand that. It's an additional tax burden for those who live in that area. I don't want to use a lot of excuses to brush that underneath the table. I'd like to call a spade a spade here and I think the City has a lot to offer those folks. We're going to see a lot of good things happen to this area. We're going see the quality of life improve here and I consider the residents of that area definitely a part of Round Rock, a valuable asset to us. I would be in favor of the annexation being effective December 31, 1993 going on the tax rolls in 1994. I'm concerned about the problems we might incur out there if we don't take action on it. There's strange problems out there already. There's no building permits being issued, there's no site plans approved for drainage. It's lending to the problem. I feel like it's a tough decision to make but I'm ready to make it." Councilman Joseph stated, "My main concern right now is the polarization issue. You know I hate to see the Oak Bluff citizens versus the citizens here. You know we all feel that we want this December 10, 1992 to be a win win situation. Water is, also, going to be a main concern. If you have a $200,000 home and no water, what do your have? I know our neighbors in Brushy Creek and Brushy Creek North faced this situation a couple of years back. It's going to be very important to consider that and I know when I met with Keith we talked about the additional water well and I don't know how many homes that well can serve and I don't know if you've had a chance to check on it but when a water 'table gets down so low no matter how many wells pumping out of it there's no water there. Something else important is whenever there is a call and sometimes the Sheriff Department's busy they ask the Round Rock Police to respond to it and they do. You all had one fire out there, I think a house either caught on fire or blew up several years back and the Round Rock Fire Department was asked to respond to that, All I would like to do, and this has been a really difficult decision, is I want it 4. W t 4 .,o be a �n win situation for everyone. I mean there are things out there that we may not have seen that could cost the City thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars to correct. So at this time I hope that either we can, someone make a motion maybe to reject the ordinance or table it." Mayor Robinson made the following statement. "I 'think what we need to understand is that the Water Corporation and the annexation are two totally different issues. We could not sell water out there to you tomorrow if we wanted to. Not that we don't have the capacity, not that we don't have the function, not that we couldn't do it legally by law, we couldn't do it because of your Water Corporation. I would like to appoint some type of educational task force but I have a very hard time dealing with the same group of people that I have been dealing with. The message wasn't carried back to the homeowners out there on what went on in our third floor. We agreed in principal to buy the Water Corporation, to take the debt. We put numbers on the chart, we distributed things that each group was suppose to do, information to get back. Jim Nuse went through the water scenario and committed water within six months after annexation. Apparently that word had not gotten out. I have a hard time spending my hours trying to negotiate in good faith for someone to forget to tell the rest of the people who live . 151 December 10, 1992 out there that the City has said we will give you water, we will take the Water Corporation. If that hasn't been said to you people prior to tonight that has been :said to some of your neighbors prior to tonight. If we do annex you and you don't want to sell the Water Corporation, there is not a, thing in the world we can do about that. They're two unrelated issues. I would agree to appoint some of our Councilmembers to meet with a group of five to seven people to see if we couldn't,.go through an education process. You're on plant out there and dump in the creek. I have been called all of what you called me before so it's not new, one of the things I want to instruct our Planning Department to do regardless is to tie any future annexations to our five year annexation plan. I do not apologize for the process. I think the process is a good process. In reality, this process has been going on since 1988. 1 do apologize for the notice. The notice in the future will be tied to every area in this community that is even thought to be annexed, that way you will have five years to know in the future that you are going to be annexed. I don't know how we can give any more notice than that. I can agree with a 90 day vote tonight vote on first reading and come back within the 90 day period to vote on second reading. During that period of time, we would hope we can get together and educate each other. At the second reading we still have the option to not:annex you,or to annex you. That does not mean that you're being annexed tonight. It has to have two readings. I don't think we ought.to be fighting with each other. We can disagree but;;_ the fighting does not need to continue. In this 90 day period maybe we can come to a truce where you understand why these gentlemen vote the way they vote."

These are single-family development tracts and following the annexation, the original zoning requested by the developer will accordingly be SF -2 (Single Family -Standard Lot). In regard to the Kenny Fort tract staff met with the developers of this tract and explained the City's concern and desire to work with the State and acquire that land and preserve that site. Staff is in constant contact with the State concerning Kenny Fort. The engineer and planner of the development seem to respect that kind of history and are going back to the owners of the tract to see what can be developed for that area.

Consider an, ordinance granting a franchise to Round Rock Refuse for commercial garbage nick -ug. (First Reading) Jim Nuse made the staff presentation... Round Rock recently passed an ordinance requiring a fr,anchise,,,,,,,,fee to be paid by commercial garbage haulers. The only change in items 9G, 9H, 91, 9J and 9K is in Section 5C of the ordinance which pertains to the statement that reports the revenues attributable to ,the operations of its waste hauling service within the City.. When staff met with the franchise haulers the only concern they had was that two of the firms don't use an outside firm for an audit. They do their auditing internally. At the request from the haulers an amendment was added that either a sworn statement am,audited statement • to the City. This would,,save them several. • dollars foil joing • an outsidouldn't have to normally have to do in their normal course of business. The impact of the overall franchise program will be to generate over $70,000 for road repair projects. Steve Sheets noted that� the City has the option to do an audi if there are any questions about�the amount that is being paid ti the City. Nuse added that if ,the hauler's records are wrong in their favor then they would pay, for the audit. If their records are wrong in the City's favor or they are correct then the City would pay for the audit. Mayor Robinson read,the caption of the ordinance. ORDINANCE NO.

The feasibility study could possibly be funded through-Hotel/Motel tax funds. Mayor Robinson said that he was opposed to a study that would cost $50,000.

Consider,'a -resolution authorizing the Mayor, to enter into a disannexation agreement for' 5.00 acres of land owntdby_,. Ruben Brown. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. Recently, Ruben Brown applied to the City of Round Rock for water and sewer service to his property along Louis Henna Boulevard. It was estimated that the cost to the City for the extension of these services would be approximately $50,000. These extensions will be necessary in the future, however, right now for one house it does not seem cost effective to extend that service. Mr. Brown has agreed to land use restrictions which conform to those of in City residents. He also has agreed to voluntary annexation upon the availability of those services. Based on the two considerations noted staff recommended disannexation of Mr. Brown's property. In response to Councilman Palmer's question, Sheets said, "there is no statutory time period to provide services af ter an application has been made. It's been more than 4 1/2 years since the City has annexed Mr. Brown's property. If the property is not disannexed tonight then it remains on the tax rolls in January and will be taxed next year."

At that time it was anticipated that construction would be completed by December 31, 1992. That did not occur due to unforseen delays.

The City of Round Rock currently is 0 * a located north of FM3406, just west of the railroad. Improvements would include repair and reconstruction of a diversion berm that was constructed when the dam was built in the early '60's. The result of this work would ensure that stormwater flows being diverted through the structure and into the Onion Branch basin are working properly. The upper Brushy Creek Water Control and Improvement District No. 1 (WCID) owns the easement where this structure lies upon and therefore the City needs their permission. Plans have been submitted to the Soil Conservation Service and received their approval. The total project cost is approximately $150,000. This indemnity agreement is required by the WCID in order for work to be done on the dam. The City has already forwarded payment of $3,000 to the district for the permit. Construction TWO December 22, 1992 costs are anticipated to be paid through the Regional Stormwater Management Program that is presently in place. Nuse informed the Council that he attended the Board meeting and this request was acted on and approved. Since the secretary of the Board was out of town, the agreement was not signed at that time.

NEW BUSINESS: Mayor Robinson recognized Mr. John Harris with Fox and Jacobs that was present at the meeting. OLD BUSINESS: None CITY MANAGER'S REPORT: None COUNCIL COMMENTS: The Council offered their Holiday wishes to everyone. Mayor Robinson noted that he received a letter from Bill suggesting that a meeting be held on January 7th in his home. A letter of response was sent to Mr. Robertson suggesting that all meetings be held at City Hall in the Council Chambers so the meetings could be accessible to the public. He informed Mr. Robertson that he appointed Councilman Stluka and Councilman Morgan to serve with him on the City subcommittee and if they could meet with the Oak Bluff representatives on January 5th. As of today an answer had not been received. Mayor Robinson relayed that Mr. Robertson asked that a written agreement be reached on some questions they have. Mr. Robertson was informed that the City subcommittee and the subcommittee appointed by the Neighborhood Association would be having an educational meeting and could not come to any agreements on anything because a majority of the Council already voted on first reading to annex Oak Bluff Estates within 90 days of the last Council meeting. The meeting would be to help the citizens of Oak Bluff understand the process and funding of fire stations, the time table for utility, fire, police services, and to answer questions that were brought up at the public hearings. Mayor Robinson noted he also sent a letter to John Jones, President of the Oak Bluff Estates Water Supply Corporation, asking for a meeting with the Corporation to start negotiations, if they desire, on the sale of the Water Supply Corporation to the City of Round Rock and the collapsing of their Certificate of Needs and Necessities. Mayor Robinson added that Mr. Jones informed Mr. Nuse that the Board's preference was to meal as one group, the Water Corporation and the Oak Bluff Estat] subcommittee. At the first meeting the City committee will try to make clear that the Council intends to annex Oak Bluff Estates with there seems to be some confusion among some people that the City will not annex Oak Bluff unless the City buy's the Water Corporation. Those two issues need to be separated. Once that is done then negotiations can begin with the Water Supply Corporation. The City need's to know the figures concerning the debt of the Corporation and whether the Board is willing to sell or even wants to sell the Corporation. The scenario that was presented by representatives of the Water Supply Corporation and their staff showed a debt of $400,000 and $100,000 in the bank. But, no word has been received if the Board is willing to sell the Corporation. Councilman Stluka said he spoke to one of the residents of the Oak Bluff area and discussed the letters from the Mayor and Mr. Robertson. He added that there does appear to be a misunderstanding that the annexation and Water Corporation issue need to be addressed separately because the Water Supply Board is not a political entity but a quasi governmental entity and that Board alone has the sole policy making decision role in anything that happens to that Water Supply Corporation in Oak Bluff; as the City Council has in determing whether the City is going to make a deal with them or not. He informed the Oak Bluff resident that the sole reason the meetings should be separated was because only two bodies can make a decision on some sort of agreement, the Board and the City. Issues that were presented concerning street repair, sewer, and fire station or concerns that may have not been answered can be discussed and identified at the meeting separate from the Water Supply Corporation meeting. Mayor Robinson outlined what staff would be presenting at the meeting on January 5th, if it occurs. In response to Councilman Joseph's question, Mayor Robinson said that only the Board votes on any issues concerning the Corporation. The Board was elected to make decisions concerning the Water Supply Corporation. The Board does have the prerogative to poll every citizen in Oak Bluff because they are members of the Corporation, but by law they don't have to do that. The Board alone can vote to sell or not sell the Corporation. iff December 22, 1992 Mayor Robinson concluded by wishing everyone a safe and Ha pp Holiday. He announced that the next City Council meeting will be January 14, 1993.

Debra Rolack, 514 Virginia, Round Rock, Texas won the $500 gift certificate. Councilman Palmer wished Agnes Quick a Happy 95th Birthday. Councilman Palmer also said a few words in memory of Harold Creed, former •« Rock Postmaster, who recently passed away. PRESENTATIONS: 6.A. consider a _— presentation regarding the First Baptist Church Planned Unit Development (PUD)._ Joe Vining made the staff presentation. Staff has been working for some months with the Highway Department, District 14 representatives, to plan for the eventual widening of Round Rock Avenue. This widening would result in the First Baptist Church losing some of their on street parking. Staff has been working with the Church over the years to provide L 8 6 January 14, 1993 the Church with more parking and saw this as an opportunity to do something about beautifying the front door coming into the community. By constructing some really nice sidewalks and curbs, and addinq some street lighting it would improve and add definition idea of a master plan for the Church was brought up. Using a Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning district would be a way of solving All the issues. This plan would lay out the Church's plan for their expansion and how they would accommodate their parking. It would provide a mechanism for the City to exchange some things back and forth with the Church. Staff is working on the idea of closing Brown Street and actually selling that land to the Church. The money value for that land would be applied back into the community through landscaping in the public right-of-way. Vining used a synopsis of the Master Plan to described the layout of the proposed parking and landscaping and church area on Round Rock Avenue. The proposal would have the Church obtain a appraisal of the land and enter into a Planned Unit Development agreement that requires the Church to do certain things in exchange for receiving the land and sets out the terms and conditions for the City to retain an easement for utilities needed in that area. This proposal for a PUD is scheduled to go before the Planning and Zoning Commission for a public hearing and then to the Council for the actual reading of the zoning. Vining added that Bo Spencer and Dan McNery representative of the Church are present to answer ang questions the Council might have. In response to Councilman Morgan's question, Vining said the proposed sidewalks would be constructed with the same type of paver stones as used on Main Street. Councilman Palmer expressed his disappointment that, due to the proposed renovation and expansion of the Church, the old church building would need to be removed. Bo Spencer explained the need for the removal of the old building. He added that parts of -the old building will be salvaged and used in different places of the Church. The bell and the bell tower will be brought back into use. 6.B. Consider a presentation from the Swimming Pool Task January 14, 1.993 Force. Sharon Prete informed the Council that Garry Smith, Chairman of the Swimming Pool Task Force, would provide a presentation and recommendation as developed by the Swimming Pool Task Force. Smith briefly highlighted points from the recommendation of the G. O. Bond Task Force. He continued that the Swimming Pool Task Force recommended that the next General Obligation Bond Election include a proposition for a natatorium and twelve tennis courts to be constructed in Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley, This recommendation is based upon community needs, review of options, data collection and review of the Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley Master Plan. It is important to move forward on the development of a Recreation Complex which will provide diversified recreational opportunities for all of Round Rock's citizens. This complex would consist of a natatorium and family aquatics center, tennis center, recreation center, gym, racket/ handball courts, arts and crafts rooms, activity centers, and volleyball courts. The development of this facility will benefit the community as well as expand the ability to promote tourism. The Task Force recommended the following proposal. Phase I Development Facilities: Natatorium and Twelve Tennis Courts A natatorium with retractable roof and walls to provide diversified year-round swimming opportunities. Programming Opportunities: - Youth to masters competitive programs - Fitness, exercise, therapy programs - Senior Citizen programs - Instructional classes - Recreational swim Natatorium components - 50 Meter Competitive Pool to include graduated depth recreation pool section - Whirlpool - Locker Room/Restroom - Concession Area - Diving Well 2 January 14, 1993 Exercise Room The tennis courts will be used for organized programming. Programming Opportunities: - League Play - Tournaments - Instruction - Recreational Play Tennis Court Components 12 Courts Lighted Fenced Location: Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley Complies with the park master plan. Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley allows for facility expansion to accommodate the growing needs of the community. Development of a city-wide facility in one area reduces duplication and cost by sharing: Parking Concession Facilities Restroom/Locker Room Does not erode the tax base by acquiring prime developable land. Neither the Deepwood property nor the Round Rock I.S.D. property allows for the development of the Recreation Complex. Possible staff cost reduction by co -locating facilities. Funding: Cost Estimate Natatorium: $3,000,000 - $5,000,000 Tennis Courts (12): $250,000 Capital costs to be funded by General Obligation Bonds. Grants will be pursued when applicable to reduce the cost to the taxpayer. Maintenance and operation of the facilities will be January 14, 1993 funded by a combination of user fees and tax dollars. Smith added that it was the Task Force's decision not to have a feasibility study done. Councilman Stluka briefed the Council on the steps the Task Force took in determining their recommendation. Be added that a research consultant would be needed to determine a cost estimate The Council discussed matching grants, whether there were any projections of income for this type of facility, whether the recommendation could be altered, how this would effect the tax base, transportation to and from the facility, and if the facility was needed this year or next year. At the request of Councilman Stluka, John Ftacek offered some information concerning the number of attendees during a swim meet competition and figures on the existing swim teams in the area. Smith informed the Council that the recommendation from the Task Force must remain intact. Mayor Robinson stated that a feasibility study is needed for this type of facility. There was concern among the Council whether the community would approve a twenty (20) cent tax increase for this type of facility since the increase would not include needs of the fire, police, or public works departments. 6.C. Consider a Presentation concerning Oak Bluff Estates draiLiqge.. Jim Huse made the staff presentation. Oak Bluff Section 2 was platted in December, 1984. It was built, designed, and platted under County standards and not City standards. A significant drainage problem has been identified in the subdivision. Undersized stormwater culverts cannot carry the flows generated through the subdivision in • with Round Rock's policy. The developer of Oak Bluff Section 3 has proposed a solution which significantly improves the situation but does not eliminate it entirely. The developer is proposing two major detention ponds, one on the Oak Bluff 3 property and one further down stream on the Oak Bluff 2 property. The two ponds would raise the ability of the conveyance of the storm from about a five year storm, which it can probably handle now, up to maybe a seventy year storm. The Oak Bluff plat is scheduled to go before the Planning January 1.4, 1993 and Zoning Commission for replatting approval. The two ponds seem to be the best solution but does not meet the current City code. Staff will recommend to the Planning and Zoning Commission that the plat would be substandard to the City's normal drainage code but. that it is probably the best solution. In two weeks staff will approach the Council to request a one time ordinance for a variance of the standards the City has in the Subdivision Ordinance to accommodate the developer's proposal for Oak Bluff. PUBLIC HEARINGS: None ORDINANCES: 8.A. Consider an ordinance setting the date, time and Place for a public hearing concerning the voluntary annexation of 9 acres of land, Round Rock Hospital. (First Reading) Joe Vining made the staff presentation.

The Operating Budget contains a lease/purchase program whereby the City acquires durable equipment such as police cars and pickup trucks through a tax-exempt lease -purchase program. These vehicles are all in the approved current budget. In this program, the equipment is purchased by the City and is then reimbursed for the equipment through a lease/purchase agreement,, The City pays the lease/purchase note off in three years. As required by new regulations in the federal tax code, the City must adopt a resolution expressing its intent to participate in this reimbursement program. Staff recommended approval of the resolution. Mayor Robinson read the following resolution. RESOLUTION NO. WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Round Rock (the "Issuer") desires to finance the costs of acquiring certain public facilities, improvements and equipment, as provided in Exhibit "A"' attached hereto and incorporated herein (the "Project"); and WHEREAS, the Issuer intends to finance the acquisition of the Project or portions of the Project with the proceeds of the sale of obligations the interest upon which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes (the "Obligations"), and WHEREAS, prior to the issuance of the obligations the Issuer desires to incur certain expenditures with respect to the Project from available monies of the Issuer which expenditures are desired to be reimbursed by the Issuer from a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the obligations, Now Therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROUND ROCK, TEXAS, SECTION 1. The Issuer hereby states its intention and reasonably expects to reimburse Project costs incurred prior to the issuance of the obligations with proceeds of the Obligations. Exhibit "A" describes either the general character, type, purpose, WN January 14, 1993 and function of the Project, or the fund or account from which Project costs are to be paid and the general functional purpose of the fund or account. SECTION 2. The reasonably expected maximum principal amount of the Obligations is $289,500.00. SECTION - 3. This resolution is being adopted on or prior to the date (the "Expenditures Date or Dates") that the Issuer will expend monies for the portion of the Project costs to he reimbursed from proceeds of the obligations. SECTION 4. The expected date of issue of the obligations will be within one year of the later of the Expenditure Date or Dates and the date the Project is placed in service. SECTION -5. Proceeds of the obligations to be used to reimburse for Project costs are not expected to be used directly or indirectly to pay debt service with respect to any obligation (other than to pay current debt service coming due within the next succeeding one year period on any tax-exempt obligation of the Issuer (other than the Obligations)) or to be held as a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund with respect to an obligation of the Issuer or any entity related in any manner to the Issuer, or to reimburse any expenditure that was originally paid with the proceeds of any obligation, or to replace funds that are or will be used in such manner. SECTION 6. This resolution is consistent with the budgetary and fEin-ancial circumstances of the Issuer, as of the date hereof. No monies from sources other than the Obligation issue are, or are reasonably expected to be reserved, allocated on a long-term basis, or otherwise set aside by the Issuer (or any related party) pursuant to their budget or financial policies with respect to the Project costs. To the best of our knowledge, this City Council is not aware of the previous adoption of official intents by the Issuer that have been made as a matter of course for the purpose of reimbursing expenditures and for which tax-exempt obligations have not been issued. SECTION 7. This resolution is adopted as official action of the Issuer in order to comply with Treasury Regulation 1.103-18 and any qualification for reimbursement of Issuer expenditures incurred prior to the date of issue of the obligations, is part of the Issuer's official proceedings, and will be available for inspection by the general public at the main administrative office of the Issuer.

NEW BUSTNESS: None RM OLD BUSINESS: None CITY MANAGER'S REPORT: Bob Bennett reminded the Council that a Special. Called City Council meeting is scheduled for Monday, January 18, 1993 to canvass the votes from the January 16, 1993 Special Called City Council Election for Place 5. Bennett added, that the RFP for the Civic Center is in the Process of being prepared and should be in his office tomorrow for review. When the RFP is completed it will be advertised as the Council requested. Funding will be budgeted through the Hotel/Motel tax fund because this is a tourism activity. A meeting between Bob Bennett, Jim Nuse, Joe Vining, and Steve Sheets will be held to discuss the infrastructure that is in the old Northeast Road District. Discussion will involve whether that area is adequate to accommodate development, if development is not adequate then staff wants to propose what needs to be done and how others besides the City might accomplish that for us. This same situation also exists in the Southeast Road District. COUNCIL COMMENTS: The Council complimented the Police Department for "a great job" they did on the dedication of their new facility. Councilman Stewart commented favorably on the success of Christmas Family Night. Councilman, Palmer made the following statement: "You probably noticed in the paper today that I have announced for re-election. I would like to make a few more comments in addition to what was in the paper. Looking back at the nearly three years on the Council I've seen many positive accomplishments. I note that we have adhered to fiscal constraint. We borrowed only $1.5 million to purchase the City Hall and parking garage, which was a real good buy. We also purchased the Heritage Center to be used for the Police Department and other departments at a later date and the cost was only about 35 cents on the dollar, purchased with funds from a law suit. The City of Round Rock has a large debt though, it's approximately $54,000,000, That's pretty large for a City of this size, fifty-four cents of every dollar goes for debt retirement. We have been able to reduce our debt by about $3.35 million per year and maintain a good credit rating. Many of the bonds have been refinanced at a lower interest which we can thank David (Kautz) and his crew for and this has put more money in the General Fund for us. It appears that we could, if push comes to shove, borrow as much as ten million dollars before we would get in trouble with our credit rating. We could purchase a fancy swim center and a huge community center and be allowed to raise the property taxes to pay for them, however, the funds needed for their upkeep would have to come from some General funds the same General. funds that the City operates under and we could not raise property taxes because of the peveto bill. This would mean a reduction in quality of services in all the other areas of the City operation. A lot of people ask, what about the increase of sales tax receipts and the additional homebuilding that provide greater tax base and more property taxes coming in? Well it's true, that this i,,:; happening, however, when we saw this coming we ear -marked 'those funds for street repair which has been neglected for about five years. At the rate of proposed funding for this year, it would take at least five or six years to catch up. With the proposed annexation of Oak Bluff, new homes in Round Rock Ranch, and Forest-, Creek Subdivisions, we are going to need another Fire Station on Gattis School Road, The land has been purchased, money is available for the new station and we have a fire engine to put out there, but, it is going',to cost over $340,000 a year to man and operate it. Now that these new areas are coming on line we are going to need some pick and shovel people to maintain the streets, the sewers and the water systems. Yes, more police and more fire people will be needed to serve the needs of these new families coming in. I believe we have enough top brass and pencil pushers to get the job done. We just need the pick and shovel people. We have a fleet that is composed of hand me down cars and trucks and second hand equipment that needs to be replaced and we need to have newer hand me downs or new vehicles. Also a new fleet maintenance center is needed to properly maintain our vehicles and it sure would be great to have some funds to operate that. All of these items need to be paid for out of the General Fund except maybe the maintenance facility, Bond money should not be used for these items and I don't believe they can be. I would love dearly to be able to provide a im January 14, 1993 beautiful swim complex and a super-duper community center, however, I recommend that these items be accomplished gradually by sections. In other words, lets go slow on the niceties and take good care of our necessities, In the area of annexation I believe we need to prepare a tentative annexation schedule as each new fiscal year begins, I know this would leave the Council open for a year long fight with hose areas that oppose annexation, however, I don't feel the legal time is long enough. During the last year I have been serving on the Texas Municipal League's Legislative Committee with an appointment to the Legislative Mandate Subcommittee. I would like to remain as a watch dog on this committee to prevent mandates without funding. I would like also to present to a more receptive Council, my "No Smoking Ordinance", that was defeated last year. Things are looking good for Round Rock right now, the possibility of some major industry coming to town, the huge increase in new home construction, and the choke hold being released on the road districts gives us alot of hope. We can have our niceties, three or four years down the road, but first lets get our debt service down to 30 or 35% instead of 54% and we will have money in the General Fund to maintain all the new projects. Friends if you see fit to return me to the City Council, I promise to work toward these ends. Harold Bredthauer will be my campaign treasurer. God Bless you, and Thank you," Councilman Joseph thanked the Swimming Pool Task Force for al I the work they did. He also said he was glad to see officer Grady Wallace walking around after his recent accident.

This development stopped due to Road District problems. The infrastructure has been unutilized for the last five years and there is some question as to it's condition.

There being no public testimony, the public hearing was closed. 11. B. Cgxj��bLic testimony concerning the voluntary annexation of 21.02 acres of land (proposed South Creek Section Four -A). Joe Vining made the staff presentation. This voluntary annexation consists of a small portion of South Creek Section Eight and the proposed South Creek Section Four -A which was left out of the original South Creek development and annexation because it was adjacent to the MKT right-of-way purchase. At the time this development was occurring, there was an uncertainty about the width of the right-of-way and exact location. Staff had been working with the Highway Department to determine the exact alignment and width. The developer now has some certainty about that location and is requesting annexation into the City so he can proceed with his development of single-family housing.

The PUD agreement states that in exchange for the Brown Street right-of- way, the church will landscape the right-of-way of the soon to be constructed Round Rock Avenue in landscape materials equal to the appraised value (approximately $20,000.00) of the Brown Street abandonment segment.

A re -plat of Oak Bluff Estates is required to improve drainage in the subdivision. Several lots are currently developed with residential housing. Currently off-site water cannot be carried off-site by the existing internal drainage system. The developer, Randy .urine, has proposed two detention ponds to detain flows which would be a substantial drainage improvement. These ponds will significantly reduce the flow from the subdivision to the conveyance system. Even though this improvement does not meet City standards it is better than nothing at all.

The cost is estimated at $90,000, just for the inspection portion. The mains will be repaired based on information received from the inspection. A similar program will be followed for the laterals. Nuse added that the City could "front-end" the $90,000 to get the project expedited. A draft agreement outlining each party's financial responsibilities is being prepared for Council's consideration.

In response to Mayor Pro -tem Joseph's question, Nuse said, "the entire agreement cannot be worked out and the cost of the repairs cannot be known until we find out the magnitude of the problem."

Mayor Robinson said, "I've met with this group and I hope the Council gets behind this. We are talking about 1.000 lots that are on the ground that we desperately need.

Maynard added, "we realize that the time will come when we would expect to be annexed, a time when the City would have access roads to Oak Bluff within their city limits, a time when the City will have grown out to meet us and we can truly feel a part of 4M February 25, 1993 the City." Maynard asked the Council "to reconsider the annexation plan and to reconsider the polarization that will continue." Maynard continued, "only one Oak Bluff resident has refused to sign the petition against annexation.

Mayor Robinson presented the plaque to David Kautz and congratulated him and his staff on receiving this award six years MINNERAMM PRESENTATIONS: 7.A. Consider a presentation concerning an amendment to the City's Investment Pali cam_ David Kautz made the staff presentat, i on . The City Finance Department manages the City's cash balances and invests them on behalf of the City., The investment of these funds is governed by the City Investment Policy, adopted by the City Counci I . The policy utilizes the elements of applicable law, business principles and common sense to establish an investment guide for achieving appropriate safety, liquidity and yield of the City's investments. The Investment Policy is a "living" document and must be amended from time to time as market changes dictate to allow for better, prudent management of the City's funds. Staff recommended an amendment to the policy which would allow investment in securities with maturities exceeding two years. Currently, the City is restricted to maturities that mature within 2 years. There have been recent changes in the investment market to necessitate looking at an option such as this to maximize the city's yield. Kautz explained a bar graph, provided to Council, which gives an example as to why staff recommended the removal of the two year �n February 25, 1993 investment restriction. This item will be brought back to the Council as an action item to amend the Investment Policy. This will allow for investments in maturities that extend beyond two years in order to maximize the City's earning potential. In response to Councilman Stewart's question, Kautz explained the rationale on limiting the policy to 2 years. 7. B. Consider a presentation concerning Sign Ordinance amendments. Joe Vining made the staff presentation. Staff has been working on a couple of proposed changes to the sign ordinance for a while. Two things that have come to staff's attention recently has to do with the distance between signs on the interstate and the height allowed on most signs that pertain to food, gas, and lodging. About 14 years ago the City adopted the standard that is currently being used for spacing on Interstate signs. Since that time development standards have changed somewhat. Staff recommended that the Council reduce the standard that was established previously. Staff is presently working on a recommended figure which will be presented to the Council in a few weeks. The second item brought up pertains to the height and justification of additional height on a sign. Two concerns that have occurred are: 1) that as the City develops the density of the City's development, it's creating businesses and buildings that are covering up existing signs; and 2) interstate signage for off ramps are covering up signs. Staff will also present some In response to Councilman Joseph's question, Vining said, "this is just for food, gas, and lodging." Those businesses on the interstate have only been targeted to try to bring those people into our community to stop and shop Round Rock. 7.C® -Consider a presentation concerninq Pre-treatment requirements.- Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. The Pre- treatment Program in the City of Round Rock is now in full implementation. The compliance program for our industrial clients has been very successful. Staff has initiated the process of sampling other businesses, including restaurants. In combination with the sampling data that the City is receiving there's also a surcharge provision in the City Code. That surcharge provision N February 25, 1993 allows the City treatment plant to do treatment for businesses over and above what they would do on site. If the City has capacity to treat it on site it can be done at the City's cost, When the ordinance was first adopted, EPA required the City to have a $2.00 per pound service charge an B.O.D. and TS.S. When the sampling data is received staff calculates the City's actual cost. Due to the calculation results staff requested that the EPA reduce that cost of $2.00 per pound to the actual 27 cents per pound. Once EPA responds to staff's request an amendment to the ordinance will be brought back to the Council. In response to Mayor Pro -tem Joseph's question, Kim Lutz, Pretreatment officer, outlined the average cost for large restaurant chains. Nuse said, "the goal of the program is to encourage the different businesses to comply with the techniques 'that are commonly available, the proper grease trap and proper maintenance of facilities. Either we treat it or they treat it on site." In response to councils questions, Lutz explained how the composite sampling is done. 7.D. Consider a Presentation concerning vehicle replacement 2rogram (and other budget matters), Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. A team has been meeting for several months to review the current fleet and to set up a replacement program that would be the most cost effective under specific criteria. Criteria for the vehicle replacement program is: Sedans, 90,000 miles or 5 years and cumulative value; Pick-ups, 90,000 miles or 10 years and cumulative value; Patrol units, 75,000 miles or 4 years and cumulative value. The original costo the fleet is $1,029,753.00. Fleet replacement cost is $1,060,900.00. Fleet current value is $453,225.00, 1.993 replacement projections include 54 vehicles at a cost of $508,200.00. The first phase replacement would include 36 vehicles; 18 in the Police Department; 7 in PARD; 7 in Public Works, and 4 in. the Fire Department; for a total net cost of $273,225.00. In response to Councilman Palmer's question, Nuse said staff is proposing to use some of the Glenn Neans lawsuit money for the first phase. Funds would be budgeted for the remainder of the am February 25, 1993 program. only vehicles that are in great need of repair are being replaced. In response to Mayor Pro -tem Joseph's question, Huse said, "Ford Motor Company if offering the warranty, it was part of the State bid package." use also explained how the cumulative repairs were figured. 7.E. Consider a presentation, concerning repealing Ordinance No. 2461, setting the date for newly elected Councilmembers to assume office. Joanne Land made the staff presentation. In January of 1990 an ordinance was passed which requires the Council to meet the first Monday immediately after an election to canvas the votes for an election. It also states that the newly elected Councilmembers will be sworn in and begin his or her term at the first regularly scheduled City Council meeting held immediately following the election. The current ordinance requires the Council to hold a special meeting to canvas the votes. Staff recommended that the Council consider changing the ordinance to reflect canvas of an election occur at the first regular Council meeting following the election with the swearing in at either the second regular meeting in May or the first regular meeting in June. This will alleviate the necessity for a special called meeting. Also, there is a State requirement that after the canvas and before the swearing in a "Statement of Elected officer" must be submitted to the Secretary of State's Office for official filing. An elected official may not be sworn in prior to the submittal of the necessary document. By canvassing the votes at the first regular meeting following the election ample time will be allowed to get the necessary document to the Secretary of State prior to the swearing in either the last meeting in May or the first meeting in June. This two week period will also allow the newly elected official time to receive any orientation necessary. Councilman Palmer said he preferred to have the canvas of an election be held the 2nd meeting in May. This item will be brought back for Council action. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 8.A.

Oakley said a similar presentation will also be made to the M PROCLAMATIONS: None PRESENTATIONS: 6.A. Consider a presentation by County Commissioner Mike Heiliqenstein concerning Williamson Countv road Drolects. presentation. Commissioner Heiligenstein asked for a resolution noting the Council's support of a proposed IH -35 By -Pass Route initiated by the City of Taylor. This by-pass would not conflict with any current projects and would be beneficial when Mokan is constructed. Support of this project would initiate a feasibility study and it can be placed in competition for funding. This item will be placed on the next agenda for consideration. 6. B. Consider a Presentation concerninq the Proposed 1993 Legislative Procfram. Joe Vining made the staff presentation. Vining highlighted the TML Legislative Program handout that was provided to the Council. Some of the highlights pertained to legislation that could effect Round Rock. Staff will bring back a resolution for Council action which would either adopt TL's Legislative position exactly as it is or recommend that certain bills be placed in a higher category of support which means much Mayor Robinson directed Vining to contact TML and ask if and why there was not a bill on their agenda concerning trucking March 11, 1993 deregulation. 6.C. Consider a presentation concerning proposed chances to the Utility billing system. David Kautz made the staff presentation. This City currently bills 11,000 customer accounts for water, wastewater and garbage services on a monthly basis. The billing process is done for all customers at the end of each month. This concentrated billing method creates an extreme "peak" load on. the billing office itself in that all of the billings go out at one time and they are all due at one time. The staff believes that personnel could be more effectively utilized and, ultimately, oLl customers could be better served if the monthly billing process was organized into billing cycles. Irma Mendoza, Utility Billing Office Manager, explained the billing process and how the program will be initiated. Under the billing cycle concept, one fourth of the customers would be billed each week of the month. These groups of customers would have their own cycles which include meter readings, bill processing/mai ling and payment due dates. New Cycle Billing CURRENT Cycle cycle Cycle Cycle SYSTEM 1 2 3 4 (Citywide) (NE) (SE) (SW) (N /Central) of Accounts 11,076 2,957 2,800 2,528 2,791 Process -Mail Bills May -1 May -17 May -24 Jun -01 Jun -08 Payment Due Date May -17 Jun -02 Jun -09 Jun -17 Jun -24 Past Due May -18 Jun -03 Jun -10 Jun -18 Jun -25 Collection Process Three-fourths of the customers will be affected because they will notice a change in their due date. one fourth of the customers will have a change in their normal reading date. in most cases the reading date will be shorter and in a few cases the reading date will be longer. The other three fourths of the customers will have very little change in the reading date.

The property on the south side of Gattis School Road has been identified as an endangered habitat, considered to be blackland prairie. Gattis School Elementary and Mrs. Chavez's students would like to have it changed into a nature preserve and by delaying the annexation six months it would allow time for the Texas Highway Department, Texas Parks and Wildlife, and other such agencies to help in the preservation of the property as well as funding the purchaser of the property.

There are approximately forty acres of undeveloped land just south of the Meadows at Chandler Creek. This offsite area was not included in the original engineering calculations done in 1984. Currently there are no provisions to allow stormwater flow from this property through the Meadows. In order to accommodate this flow three improvements are required: 1.

Consider public testimony regarding the proposed annexation of 58.97 acres of land (proposed Rolling Hill Subdivision). Joe Vining made the staff presentation. This property is located on the north side of Gattis School Road and abuts the east line of the MKT right-of-way. In working with the Police and Fire Departments and 9-1-1 Coordinator, it was decided to change the name of the subdivision to Rolling Rock to avoid some confusion. Currently the developer has completed the Concept Plan stage and successfully presented a Preliminary Plat to the Planning and Zoning Commission. He is now working on his Final Plat that will be submitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Issues of concern that have been brought up are: 794§ IVES I'm 1111 4 - ammimmo-M (2) Abandoned wells - staff has been very cooperative with the State on their set program for capping and filling up of old wells. (3) Gattis School Road improvements - staff has been working on interim improvements for Gattis School Road pointing towards a later CIP project that will result in the need to go to the voters for a bond election for a full developed urban section on Gattis from South Creek Drive to County Road 122. (4) Parks - primary issue is whether this site will have a neighborhood park. Vining explained the process of acquiring park land. Staff is aware of the prairie grass area brought up by his. Chavez and have been working with the Highway Departmentl (5) Development time table - staff was informed by the City Attorney that the publication of the notice of the public hearing on the proposed annexation was five days too early. Due to that error the process will be started all over again to make sure it's exactly to the letter of the. law. The notices will be re -published and two more public hearings will be held. The Special Called Meeting scheduled for next Tuesday, March 30, 1993 was canceled. In response to Councilman Stluka's questions, Vining said tbE time table will be republished and the process will take another 010FOIS March 25, 1.993 three months. The final plat for this development will proceed. through the Planning and Zoning Commission and a condition on the approval of the final plat will state that it can not be recorded until the annexation process has been completed. The issue concerning the prairie grass property brought up by Ms. Chavez is not affected by the proposed annexation. Nuse added the natural springs in the area are also being taken under consideration and are in the review process. Discussion occurred regarding the virgin prairie grass issue. Larry McDonald, 1.286 Johnson Lane, read the letter given to the Planning and Zoning Commission by adjacent property owners requesting that the annexation of the Rolling Hills Subdivision be conditioned upon written agreement of several factors. That the following be required prior to the annexation: a uniform privacy fence with supporting boards and posts facing the development and bordering the north and east exteriors of the development; building restrictions requiring one story homes on the 18 lots to the north that will border the current land owners, the Neel ys, O'Briens, and Lovedays; building restrictions requiring at least 75% masonry on all homes; access out of the northwest corner of the property and actual sidewalk not just an easement for the future; and permission for the future residents of the subdivision to use the greenbelt area created by the easement necessary for the Mokan right-of-way for recreational purposes until such time as it's actually needed for the expressway; obtain a written agreement with the owners of the Round Rock Ranch development that will allow the future residents of the Rolling Hills subdivision to use the park and recreational facilities planned for that development; arrange for the future residents of the Rolling Hills subdivision to have safe zccess to the park and recreations facilities of the Round Rock Ranch development, access should be available at the time home construction begins with plans to provide for safe access with and after the construction of the Mokan expressway. He requested that annexation of the property be contingent upon satisfactory completion of the mentioned conditions. In response to Mayor Robinson's question, McDonald said the am] March 25, 1993 letter was signed by ten family signatures. Franciene McDonald, 1286 Johnson Lane, read two letters by two property owners that could not be present. The Lee and Linda Loveday letter is as follows: "We are homeowners of a piece of property that lies adjacerE to the proposed real estate development of Rolling Hills. Unfortunately because of prior commitment we are unable to attend the meeting this evening but would like to address some of the concerns we have concerning this development. We feel that no one has taking into account the current land use property surrounding this project. This will be a development of very small lots and a great many houses when this is in total contradiction to the surrounding area. The Council should definitely create a zoning category for ranchette style living in Round Rock. The City of Round Rock should improve Gattis School Road itself before any additional projects are approved which increase the flow of traffic. A dangerous condition already exists in that all traffic from Round Rock Ranch already exits onto the only road into the new elementary school. Let's not add to this problem. Additional there are many problems attached to this project, no parks or playgrounds for children living in the development, improper drainage for homes water supply and no buffer zone provided for the homes already in existence surrounding this area. We hope that you will be able to take our concerns under considerations this evening and hopefully improve the situation and we thank you." The next letter which Mrs. McDonald read was from Roger P. Fuller. A copy is attached, Linda Neely, 1350 Johnson Lane, stated her concern was with the compatibility of the proposed subdivision to her property since she has a horse barn situated approximately 25 feet from the boundaries of the proposed subdivision. The barn which faces south fronts the subdivision. She has a horse, barbed wire fences, and a barn. She has met with the developer to acquire undeveloped land and could not come to an agreement on the adjacent land to provide a buffer to her property. This proposes a liability for her since the developer said he would not provide a park for the subdivision and therefore, her property would be an attractive place for 7 0 March 25, 1993 children to play. Several landowners adjacent to the proposed annexation have swimming pools. Another concern is the ingress and egress to the subdivision. She added, "We need larger lots. These lots would meet the needs of the community since there is no park involved." In response to Mayor Robinson's question, Vining described the size of the lots in the proposed subdivision in relation to other, lots in the City. Susan Rusk, 800 Rusk Road, Austin, Texas, asked that she be notified when the next public hearing will be held. Mayor Robinson asked staff to notify the adjacent property owners when the new time table was,established. He encouraged the developer to keep working with the adjacent property owners and added that the Council cannot force the.developer to comply with the requests presented or enforce deed restrictions. The,grassland issue should be kept separate from the annexation. There being no further public testimony, the public hearing was closed. 7.B. Consider public testimony regarding the prg_poged, annexation of 30.7059 acres of land (ProiDosed Oak Bluff Estates Section 3) Joe Vining made the staff presentation.

Consider a presentation by Round Rock Cablevision. Tony Fontana, General Manager, gave a brief update on the cable system. He said the cable system changed hands several times in the last six months. It went from Southwest Cablevision/United Artists to Telecommunications, Inc. to Time Warner. The Round Rock cable system is currently managed by the Time Warner Austin system. Time Warner has provided unlimited resources and help to the Round Rock office. On April 1, 1993 some of the channels were changed around and the Learning Channel will run full-time. The changes had no effect on the overall price of the cable service. Fontana added he received approval of a $538,000 Capital Budget. The majority of that money will be spent in Round Rock wiring new subdivisions, purchasing new trucks and upgrading the plant. He should be receiving word on the Operating Budget by the end of the month. Fontana showed the Council the new name and logo, "Round Rock Cablevision." Fontana said, "the logo has changed and the name has changed, what didn't change was the staff and their commitment to the customers of Round Rock." 6.C. Consider a presentation concerning the completion of the West Round Rock Water Improvements. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. The West Round Rock Water Improvements were constructed to help provide water service to the land west of Round Rock within our service area. Work on the project began in 1987. The improvements consisted of two storage tanks and nearly 13 miles of 282 April 8, 1993 waterline between 16" and 42". The total cost of the improvements is $6,241,757.14. Round Rock participated along with Fern Bluff, Lomas and Nettleton (Vista Oaks), Highland Joint Venture, and E.C. joint Venture. The parties have agreed to defer the costs of several lines until they are required in the future which do not effect Round Rock. The parties desire to close out the agreement which has been open for about 6 years. Round Rock's share of the improvements is $513,570.52. These funds were anticipated to come from the oversize fund and such funds are currently available. This will be brought back to the Council for action at a later date to close the project and final reimbursement. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 7.A. Consider public testimony concerning designating 35.392 acres of land out of the A. Speecher Survey No. 101, Abstract 719 and the William Bratton Survey No. 103, Abstract 100, situated in Travis County being a portion of the remainder of Lot 1, Corridor Park I as Reinvestment Zone No. Five for commercial /industrial. tax abatement. Mayor Robinson opened the public hearing. Phil Brewer, President of the Round Rock Chamber, offered a presentation concerning the request for the reinvestment zone. About 3 years ago the City contracted with PHH Fantus to do an Economic Development Study for the City. One of the components of the study was the identification of a list of target industries for the City. One of the industries that was identified as an industry that the City of Round Rock was a good match for was the food processing industry. In June of last year work began on a project that had narrowed down a rather intensive nationwide search to a short list of communities that included the Austin area as a possible location for a food processing company's expansion plans. City staff and. the Chamber of Commerce have been working on recruiting a food processing company from California. The California company plans to build a 125,000 square foot facility and employ approximately 500 people when fully operational. To measure the economic impact this project would have on Round Rock the services of Perryman Consultants, out of Waco, Texas were enlisted. Dr. Ray Perryman, President of Perryman Consultants is the creator of the Texas Multi -Regional Impact Assessment System which provides a truly localized and industry specific economic impact • April 8,1993 analysis. This model is the same one which was used in the highly detailed studies for the Superconducting Supercollidor , Formosa Plastics, GTE, Exxon and American Airlines project. A sophisticated analysis from this highly respected source provided an excellent overview of the economic impact the company could have on this community. Perryman Consultants was asked to illustrate the long term effects and analyze the impact of the operation of a food processing company that employs 500 for Round Rock. Brewer went over Perryman's impact figures for 1995, 1999 and 2003. He concluded by requesting that the Council approve the creation of a reinvestment zone for 35.392 acres of land located in Corridor Park I which would allow a tax abatement for the project to locate in Round Rock. Councilman Stluka commended Phil Brewer, the Chamber of Commerce and the Economic Development Committee on the presentation. It was presented in a way that the community can realize the impact of this good, clean, and planned growth that will benefit the community for many years. He added, "we are on the right track working as a team and I would like to see us stay on that track." Mayor Robinson asked the Council to make it a policy that whenever a company wishes to locate in Round Rock and requests an abatement that an economic impact study, such as the one that was done for this company, should be done. The payment would be worked out between the City, Chamber and Century Club. He added that the proposed reinvestment zone property is located in the Round Rock city limits but in Travis County. The Round Rock School District and Travis County are not being asked to participate. Mayor Robinson said, "tax abatements are not giveaways, it's the government and business working together in a partnership and if this helps them get to Round Rock then we ought to continue to look at them." There being no further testimony, the public hearing was closed. ORDINANCES: 8.A. Consider an ordinance designating 35.392 acres of land out of the A. Speecher Survey No. 101, Abstract 719 and the William Bratton Survey No. 103, Abstract 100, situated in Travis County being a portion of the remainder of Lot 1 Corridor Park 1 as Reinvestment Zone No. Five for commercial/ industrial tax abatement. 4 April 8,1993 Mayor Robinson read the caption of the ordinance. ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE DESIGNATING A CERTAIN AREA AS REINVESTMENTZONE NO. FIVE FOR COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL TAX ABATEMENT, CITY OF ROUND ROCK, TEXAS, ESTABLISHING THE BOUNDARIES THEREOF AND OTHER MATTERS RELATING THERETO. MOTION: Mayor Pro -tem Joseph moved to adopt the ordinance. Councilman Palmer seconded the motion. VOTE: Ayes: Councilman Stluka Councilman Morgan Councilman Stewart Councilman Palmer Councilwoman Chavez Mayor Pro -tem Joseph Mayor Robinson Noes: None ACTION: The motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Councilman Stluka moved to dispense with the second reading of the ordinance with the unanimous consent of all the Councilmembers present. Councilman Stewart seconded the motion. VOTE: Ayes: Councilman Stluka Councilman Morgan Councilman Stewart Councilman Palmer Councilwoman Chavez Mayor Pro -tem Joseph Mayor Robinson Noes: None ACTION: The motion carried unanimously. Mayor Robinson noted that the actual tax abatement agreement will be brought back to the Council on April 22, 1993. It will include more details along with the name of the company. RESOLUTIONS: April 8, 1993 9.A. Consider a resolution concerning fire protection in Oak Bluff Estates. Mayor Robinson noted that Councilman Palmer requested that this item be placed on the agenda. Councilman Palmer said, "since Oak Bluff will not have fire protection, other than the volunteer protection, I felt that we should extend the right hand of friendship to these folks and provide fire protection nine months early to get them on line and let them see the services of our City. It would be a great thing to do something for them. I know we have had a lot of conflict during this annexation and I would hope this would show our faith in the program." Fire Chief, Lynn Bizzell made the staff presentation. Approval of the resolution would reduce the response time to that area. No additional equipment or personnel would be needed. Chief Bizzell offered information which reflected costs that could be expected resulting from a normal response to the Oak Bluff Subdivision. Total costs per call are as follows: Major Fire - Manpower $160.45 Equipment $173.20 Total $333.65 Medical Call - Manpower $72.00 Equipment $65.60 Total $137-60 In response to Mayor Pro -tem Joseph's question, Bennett said, "the timetable for the construction and manning of the fire station is 1995 and this is subject to the Council's decisions and direction." Mayor Robinson said the Council would like to discuss moving the timetable up. Mayor Robinson noted that the Council wanted to amend the resolution. He asked the approval of the resolution be contingent upon the Fire Department doing a maintenance check on the fire hydrants in Oak Bluff Estates to make sure that the sources out there are adequate for the City to hook up to and utilize. Councilman Stluka added that as long as that Water Supply Corporation stays intact the fire hydrants are still their property. In response to Councilman Stewart's question, Bizzell said the fire hydrants outside the city are occasionally checked by the volunteer fire department but not on a routine basis. 286 April 8,1993 Councilman Morgan asked if the hydrants in Oak Bluff were to our City standards. Chief Bizzell said he would need to check the area first, but they have come across some hydrants with Austin thread. To solve that problem they have placed an adapter on each piece of their equipment so if they do run across one in an emergency situation it can be adapted back to Round Rock thread. Mayor Robinson said he will be sending a letter to John Jones and the Round Rock Water Supply Corporation requesting a copy of the appraisal of the Round Rock Water Supply Corporation since they committed to having one done to determine the value of the Water Supply Corporation so the City could either purchase the Corporation or see how the water issue could be resolved. As of January 1, 1994, even though Oak Bluff will be in the City limits of Round Rock, the City cannot sell water to Oak Bluff even if we want to because all the waterlines, tanks and fire hydrants belong to the Water Supply Corporation. Mayor Robinson read the following resolution. RESOLUTION NO. WHEREAS, the City Council had previously adopted Ordinances Nos. A -93-02-25- 9A and A -93-02-25-9B annexing Oak Bluff Estates Phases I and II,, which ordinances become effective on December 31, 1993, and WHEREAS, the Council has determined that it would be appropriate for the Round Rock Fire Department to provide fire fighting and medical emergency service to the residents of Oak Bluff Estates on an immediate basis, Now Therefore BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROUND ROCK, TEXAS, That the City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to take the appropriate steps to assure that the Round Rock Fire Department responds to fire and medical emergencies in Oak Bluff Estates Phases I and II. RESOLVED this 8th day of April, 1993.

Consider a resolution concerning the 1993 Legislative Program. Joe Vining made the staff presentation. A draft of the 1993 Legislative Program was presented to the Council a few weeks ago. This resolution is Round Rock's statement of support and, in some cases, opposition to a small but important group of bills. The Texas Municipal League legislative program for 1993, provided to the Council, forms the basis for Round Rock's program. The following exceptions will be moved to the highest position: Items 2(motor fuels tax), 4 (permitting), and 15 (Local and State Park Fund) will be moved from the Support category to Seek Introduction and Passage. Item 12 (Trucking Regulations) would be moved from the Endorse category to Seek Introduction and Passage. Councilman Stluka expressed concern regarding Item 4 (Texas Worker's Compensation) and recommended that it should be deleted from the Endorse category. After discussion, it was the consensus of all the Councilmembers to delete this item from the program. Mayor Robinson expressed his concern on the Airport Authority Bill which would give an appointed board the Home Rule authority to over rule city zoning. After discussion, it was the consensus of all the Councilmembers to add this bill to the Oppose category. Mayor Robinson read the following resolution.

Perryman Consultants performed an wonomic analysis on the relocabon of Dell Computer to Round Rock to determine the wAxmic effects on Round Rock and the surroundmg area. The study concluded that constructing and maintaining the Dell facility will have significant positive im- pacts on economic activity within the local community. According to the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce, Dell will con- struct a 600,000 square foot facility and will employ 2!600 persons once the facil- ity is, in operation. The facility will contain Dell's corporate offices, as well as its manufacturing and telemarketing services. Dell is one of the most rapidly , -wing companies in the personal com- er industry and has a reputation as an aggressive, innovative entry into this dynamic market. 11x first effect on the Round Rock fjJ01AActa of the facility.

Initially, the local impacts will be as follows: Total Expenditures $ 663,095,000 Gross Product $ 316,854,000 Personal Income $ 224,116,000 .Wages and Salaries $ 116,662,000 .3tail Sales $ 93,970,000 eermanent Jobs 8,004 As the company expands in the future, it is expected that even greater economic benefits will occur in the local area. Accordingto Dr. M. Ray Perryman, "This relocation is an important mile- stone in Round Rock's economic devel- opmentprogram. It brings solid benefits to the community and sends a message around the globe that Round Rock has the type of corporate environment and pro-business attitude needed to attract one of the nation's outstanding compa- nies." The impacts on the local economy of Round Rock can by characterized as direct, indirect, and induced effects. Direct expenditures are those outlays whicheanbe directly associated with the existence of the facility itself or froth purchases necessary for its maintenance and operation. The indirect impacts may be defined as the production from other sectors necessary for the direct activity to take place. As an example of indirect expenses, construction of any large facility such as Dell Computer necessarily requires production of con- crete, lumber, fabricated metals, and architectural and engineering design ser- vices. The induced impacts occur as a result of the payrolls generated by the direct and indirect activity. The employees supported by the facility and its suppliers use a sub- stantial portion of their incomes to buy housing, food, clothing, andotherconsumer goods within the Round Rock community. The study was conducted using input data from the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce. 'This information was analyzed through the relevant geographic sub. -model of the Texas Multi -Regional Impact As- ses=ent System. Each county sub -model is designed to reflect the unique industrial composition of the local area by calculating overall impact in more than 500 industrial categories. Developed and maintained by Perryman Consultants, the Multi -Regional Impact Assessment System uses direct ex- penditures and job inputs to calculate the indirect and induced effects. All assumptions regarding the level of economic impact are established on a con- servative basis. Hence, the results may be viewed as the mirimurn economic contribu- tion of the Dell Computer facility to the Round Rock area. 0 ,_ ; i �. ➢ � /. _..'Y+ April 12,1993 Round Rock, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, THAT The offer of the Program shall be as generally outlined in Exhibit A which is attached hereto and incorporated herein, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, THAT Upon acceptance by DELL of the offer as outlined in Exhibit A, the City Manager and City Attorney are authorized and directed to begin immediately to negotiate and draft the final documents to implement the Program.
