PRESENTATIONS:
7.A. Consider a presentation by the Chamber of Commerce Tourism Committee regarding
development of a possible tourism attraction. John Moman, Chairman of the Chamber of
Commerce Tourism Committee, described a proposed bronze statue project near the "round rock."
This idea, of a statue commemorating the Chisholm Trail cattle drive, was brought to the Chamber
Tourism Committee a year ago by then Chairman, Vernon O'Rourke. The Chisholm Trail
Commemorative Sculptures will consist of one horse and rider and three longhorns crossing the
creek. The horse and rider and two of the steers will be outside the present water level. The rider
will have a rope pulling the third steer out of the water. After several meetings it was agreed that,
in order for a project of this size to be successful, it had to have the support of the Chamber Board
of Directors, the City of Round Rock, and the community as well as an interest from outside the
community. Five bids were received for this project. Jim Thomas was the lowest bidder. Moman
added that in researching this project, several cities with historic or cultural statues were
interviewed. They all stated that the statues have had a positive impact on their community and
have proven to be extremely beneficial. Increased community awareness and pride have also been a
plus for the communities. Moman outlined the following options for the project.

Councilman Morgan expressed concern on how the statutes will be protected from high
water, debris, and security from vandalism. Moman explained how those concerns will be
addressed.
Moman asked for a vote of confidence from the Council and he asked that the Council
appoint a subcommittee to review the funding options. He added that he would like to see this
project incorporated into the next fiscal year budget.
7.B. Consider a presentation concerning a request by Robert W. Tagge for out -of -City
water service. Robert Tagge requested out -of -City water service for 5.6 acres of land along
County Road 172. He said he currently has two wells on the property one of which is still
operatable and he also has his own septic system. Tagge noted that he has been meeting with staff
regarding his request. His request for service was mainly because it was available and would
provide a more reliable source of water for future development of his property.
Mayor Culpepper asked Tagge to continue working with staff.
7.C. Consider a presentation concerning amendments to the Cit junked vehicle
ordinance. Police Chief Buster Kuhlmann made the staff presentation. The Council was provided
with a draft copy of the ordinance that showed changes to the City's current junked vehicle
ordinance. Chief Kuhlmann said that the changes are consistent with the current State law that
governs junked vehicles. There were no major changes to the current ordinance except "Antique
and Special Interest Vehicles" will be addressed and other issues will be defined in more detail.
This ordinance will be brought back to the Council's next meeting.
April 25, 1996
7.D. Consider a presentation concerning a recommendation from the Capital
Improvements Advisory Committee on land use assumptions related to possible adoption of impact
fees. Joe Vining made the staff presentation. As prescribed by law, this study is required to be
reviewed every three years to prove that the amount of impact fees being collected is valid. The
Advisory Committee held three meetings and were provided engineering studies by consultants.
These studies determine the land use assumptions and capital improvements over a ten year period.
There have been two changes on the land use since the last study was done three years ago. The
ETJ and some land uses have changed on the southside of the City. A public hearing will be held
on May 9, 1996 concerning the possible adoption of impact fees.
7.E. Consider a presentation concerningdevelopment standards for mini -warehouses. Joe
Vining made the staff presentation. Staff has been reviewing the implications, and visual impact,
of mini -storage for the Round Rock gateway corridors, RR620, US 79, and IH -35 along with the
high traffic count and high visibility roadways in the community. Higher development standards
are being considered for these roadways along with greater set backs, more landscaping and a
turning the doors inward and to concentrate on a better looking project. Staff recommended that the
primary change would be to allow mini -warehouse only in the I-1 (Industrial) zoning district and
not in the C-1(Commercial) zoning district. This recommendation would not preclude mini -
warehouses from our city limits because there are a number of I-1 properties along the major
corridors. Vining requested 60 more days to prepare an ordinance and hold public hearings
regarding staff's recommendation. Mayor Culpepper asked Vining to place this item on the Council
retreat agenda.

for permission to name the new pool after their daughter.

pool. He added, "She will be here forever."

The Round Rock City Council met in Work Session and Regular Session on Thursday,
May 9, 1996 in the City Council Chamber, 221 E. Main Street.
CALL WORK SESSION TO ORDER - 5:00 P.M.
ROLL CALL: Those members present were Mayor Charles Culpepper,
Mayor Pro -tem Earl Palmer, Councilman Robert Stluka, Councilman Rod Morgan, Councilman
Rick Stewart, Councilwoman Martha Chavez and Councilman Jimmy Joseph. Also present were
City Manager Bob Bennett, Assistant City Manager/City Secretary Joanne Land and City Attorney
Steve Sheets.
EXECUTIVE SESSION:
3.A. Executive Session as authorized by Article 6252-17, Section 2,
Subsection (a) regarding the evaluation of the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, City
Attorney, and Municipal Judge.
The Council entered into Executive Session at 5:00 p.m. and adjourned into Work Session
at 5:40 p.m.
WORK SESSION:
4 A. Consider discussion concerning the G. O. Bond priority list. Bob Bennett made the
staff presentation. At the Council's direction staff reviewed the priority list. It was determined that
instead of borrowing $6 million, $12 million should be borrowed to accomplish the projects
concerning roads and parks. Staff proposal is to use interest income off the $12 million that is
borrowed to help make the debt service payments initially and to extend the life of the bonds 25
years instead of the normal 20 years. These bonds will be organized differently in that only 7% of
the principal will be paid over the first 10 years. This bond package can be combined with the
City's outstanding debt and 50% of the principal could be retired over 10 years for the entire debt
package. There may be some items that do not need to be actually purchased right a way, for
example, the Fire Station on Deepwood Drive. If the Council desires, $12 million can be borrowed
and lower the City's tax rate from the current 42 cents to something lower and come back a year
from this July to borrow the remaining $8 million and still keep the tax rate lower than 42 cents.
This proposal allows the City to accomplish $13 million dollars worth of work the first year and
use the General Fund balance as an interim financing tool.
Jim Nuse noted that the majority of the construction for Bowman Road and County Road
122 will be completed by August 1996. Prior to the beginning of a proposed project, three
neighborhood meetings will be held. The first meeting will be to gather input from the
neighborhood, the second meeting will be held at 80% to 90% of the design so the neighborhood
will know what is going on and to receive input before the design is completed, and the third
meeting will be held before construction begins so the residents will know who the contractors are.
Nuse outlined the proposed projects by priority. The following projects will begin the first of June
and will take 2 years to complete.
25
May 9, 1996
1. White Wing Way/Ridgecrest/Dove Haven area
2. Old Town Drainage
3. Karolyn, E. Oak, W. Oak, Larry Street, and Lilac Street in Egger Acres
4. Vista, N. Summit, Summit & Lee Streets which includes the low water crossing at
the Bluff.
5. The Downtown area which includes Main Street, Bagdad, and Burnet
Street. These streets will be done in conjunction with the Library project.
6. Rubio, Nash, Baker, and the Ditch. These streets are a part of a grant
application.
7. Chaparral Street which will bring the Woods Subdivision to FM 3406
past Old Town Elementary.
8. Sidewalks and Traffic Control - A traffic light is proposed at the intersection of
County Road 122 and the Golf Course Road and at the intersection of Bowman
Road and Sunrise Road. Staff is working with the School District to provide
sidewalks to the new Elementary School in Forest Creek. There will be some fill in
sidewalks by the new Middle School at the intersection of FM3406 and Sunrise
Road.
Mayor Culpepper asked Nuse to add the small area along Creekmont Park to the sidewalk
project so that there will be sidewalks to Chisholm Trail Middle School. The Mayor also asked if
the low water bridge by the Bluff will be replaced with a bridge similar to the one on Chisholm
Trail. Nuse said that the design had not been determined but it will not be a high profile bridge.
The bridge will remain as a low water crossing bridge but it will be able to carry vehicles in both
directions and handle pedestrian traffic and sidewalks. This is to maintain the same characteristics
of the park. Nuse concluded that all of the projects will include sidewalks.
4. B. Consider discussion of long—range ,goals. Bob Bennett said there has been increased
interest concerning the Internet and what it can do. Staff located a company, Cyberforge, owned
by John Strohl which is located in Round Rock that can give advise on the Internet and creating a
home page. Currently, staff is using the home pages of other cities for bench mark activities.
Bennett asked the Council for their direction concerning the Internet.
Mayor Culpepper said that he would like to see everything that is transcribed from the City
on a homepage, Council agendas, the budget, public notices, and any information that would be
helpful to anyone that has access to the Internet.
John Strohl briefly explained possibilities of a web page, how a web site can be self
sustaining, and other aspects of the system. He added that he can give a tour/presentation of the
municipal world wide web if the Council desires.
Bennett said that currently Strohl has a letter of authorization with the City, not to exceed
$5,000, to help begin developing a web site for the City and staff will proceed further at the
Council's direction.
Mayor Culpepper asked Strohl to give a presentation during work session at the next
Council meeting. Strohl asked the Council to arrive about 30 minutes prior to the next meeting so
they can have their pictures taken for the City's web page.
Bennett continued that the top goal of the Council and staff has been communications and
open government. He said that 50% of our citizens get information on the City and School Board
from our government channel, Channel 10. Channel 10 is the most under utilized source that the
City has available to it and for a little more money the City can improve productions. Mayor
26
May 9, 1996
Culpepper asked Bennett to contact Dr. Norris and discuss ways to utilize Channel 10 with the
School District and share costs.
Mayor Culpepper said his personal goal is infrastructure and roadways and the Council
really has to concentrate on these issues this next year. After attending some meetings with
TXDOT and private individuals, the Mayor felt it was time to start looking at toll roads as a
solution to the traffic problem in southern Williamson County. The Council and staff discussed
the benefits of toll roads and how a toll road would elevate traffic off RR620. All the Council
agreed that a toll road was the solution to the traffic concerns in Round Rock. Mayor Culpepper
said the good thing about toll roads is "if you don't use it, it doesn't cost you anything."
Councilman Stluka suggested that a subcommittee be formed to initiate what steps need to be taken
to create a toll road. Mayor Culpepper said that the Chamber of Commerce has a Transportation
Subcommittee that Bennett could be appointed to and relay the Council's ideas. Councilman
Morgan said the County Bond Task Force had it's first meeting and a high priority was the traffic.
Councilman Stewart expressed his concern with the internal traffic problems. He said that RR620
at Chisholm Trail, McNeil Road at the frontage road on the west side, and 1325/I1-1-35 needs to be
further discussed at a work session. There being no further discussion the Council recessed at 6:55
p.m.
CALL REGULAR SESSION TO ORDER - 7:00 P.M.

A presentation will be made on this item at a later date.
PROCLAMATIONS:
10.A. Consider a proclamation proclaiming National Nurses Week. Mayor Culpepper
read the appropriate proclamation.
PRESENTATIONS:
11.A. Consider a presentation concerning cost participation for drainage
improvements at Interchange Business Park. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. The Council
was provided with a letter from Stendebach and Associates concerning regional drainage
improvements at Interchange Business Park. This plan will provide for conveyance of the ultimate
drainage flows from property south and east of Interchange Business Park. The off-site portion
will be funded by the regional detention fund for $42,415.00. An agreement will be brought back
to the Council for action. In conjunction with these improvements, staff recommended that Doucet
and Associates conduct a drainage study of the downstream channel design to confirm that the
improvements will convey the drainage properly. This agreement will be brought back for Council
action at a later date.
Mayor Culpepper dispensed with the order of the agenda with the unanimous consent of all
the Councilmembers present and took item 14E.
14.E. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Wastewater Disposal
Agreement with LCRA/BRA Alliance. Mayor Culpepper announced that Mark Rose, General
Manager of the LCRA, and Joe Beal, a manager from LCRA, were present. Bob Bennett made the
staff presentation. He said that for many years the City has been anxious to do whatever it could to
help establish a regional wastewater system in order to protect the Edwards Aquifer, which is
immediately to the west. The Council has also made it clear that they are interested in stable rates
over a long period of time and to have sustainable long term capacity to accommodate the growth
that is expected to occur in this area. Late last year the City of Round Rock approached officials
with the LCRA and BRA and requested their assistance in establishing a Regional Wastewater
System.
In response to the City's request, LCRA and BRA formed an "Alliance" to implement
cooperation and the pooling of resources to, among other things, construct, operate and maintain a
regional wastewater system in the Brushy Creek basin.
For the past five to six months, the Alliance and the cities of Round Rock, Austin and
Cedar Park have negotiated the terms of a proposed Wastewater Disposal Contract whereby the
LCRA would provide financing for the construction of the wastewater treatment system, and the
BRA would provide operation and maintenance of the system. This resolution authorizes the
Mayor to execute a Wastewater Disposal Agreement with the Alliance. Staff recommended
approval of the resolution. Bennett added that after this is accomplished staff hopes to move on to
May 9, 1996
regional water which is another one of the Council's goals to help do the same thing in terms of
rate stabilization and sustainable larger availabilities of water.
Jim Nuse summarized the service area of the system, it's participants, and the process that
will be taken so the Alliance can operate and maintain the Regional Wastewater System in the
Brushy Creek Basin.
David Kautz summarized the cost concepts. He said that the benefit that this particular
projects brings to the City is that they bring economic and financing capabilities to the City that
would allow this particular wastewater expansion with a minimal cash requirement. The existing
system would be sold to the LCRA and they would reimburse us for our cost to date on the
expansion of the current system. LCRA would continue that project and then we would retire
those costs as customers of the Alliance over time. Prior to looking at this particular project and
business deal, we were faced with the prospect of rate increases of 5%-7% over the next three
years. The cost will still be there but now those cost would have been spread over time allowing us
to grow. We are not looking for a rate increase this next year but there will possibly be a small
need for one the year after that but those things will need to be looked at more closely when we get
a better idea as our customer base continues to growth. Kautz concluded that this project represents
a net benefit to us in terms of economics and it takes immediate pressure off of our rate
requirements.
Councilman Joseph asked who would make the decision on rate increases. Steve Sheets
responded that there are two rates, the rate that the Alliance charges us on a wholesale basis that
would be passed through to the customer and the rate that the Council sets for our customers.
Mayor Pro -tem Palmer asked about the status of the current City employees at the
Wastewater Plant. Nuse explained that the employees will be treated fairly. They will have the
option to maintain the status that they now have with OMI which is a contract operator and that
they are City employees or they would be employed by BRA. The employees will be able to make
that decision.
Steve Sheets summarized the Executive Summary of the Wastewater Disposal Contract that
was provided to the Council. He added while the Contract is generally acceptable, there are some
relatively minor terms which remain to be negotiated. He recommended that the Council approve
the general terms of the Contract and to authorize the Mayor to sign the Contract subject to the final
negotiation and approval of the remaining terms by the City Manager and City Attorney. The
contract will be ready for signatures by the 1st of June.
Mark Rose thanked the Council for giving the Alliance the opportunity to work on this
project together. He said this is the first time two river authorities have entered into this kind of
relationship. He added that LCRA has had a 60 year relationship with their customers to provide
electric service on a whole sale basis so they are not new at this type of arrangement. They have $2
billion worth of assets and $480 million a year in revenues and they are dependent on the contracts
29
May 9, 1996
they have with their whole sale customers so they take those contract relationships very seriously.
The relationship that LCRA has with their customers is based on customer service. Rose concluded
that Round Rock had a lot to do with there being an Alliance.

Joe Vining made the staff presentation. This tract was zoned multi -family ten years ago. The
current zoning ordinance allows 356 units to be built on this 17.838 acre tract. The prospective
buyer of this tract wants to combine the adjacent 8.46 acre tract with the 17.838 acre tract but not
increase the number of units that he is proposing. Staff recommended approval of the zoning
change from MF and C-1 to Planned Unit Development on first reading only. The second reading

The recreation center will be approximately 35,000 square feet and designed to house
gymnastics, racquetball courts, game room, meeting/class rooms, fitness area, locker rooms,

Staff recommended that Council support the grant application submittal. This is an
opportunity to "grow" our resources and insure the quality of the project.

Vining asked that these representative be appointed at the next Council meeting.
1 LB. Consider a presentation concerning Opticom System. Captain David Smith of the
Fire Department made the staff presentation.: This item was presented to the Council last year.
This system will allow emergency fire vehicles to control traffic lights at appropriate intersections
when on an emergency call. Concerns that Ilwere previously brought up were the cost and whether
to phase in the program. Benchmarking was done throughout the State to see what was available,
staff reviewed the Police Department application, and the intersections were prioritized. The
Council was provided with information regarding Opticom and the prioritized intersection list. It
was determined that the City should proceed with the installation of the complete system on all of
the traffic signals. The Police Department (will delay their participation due to the cost and due to
the ability to maneuver and stop patrol cars leasier than with fire vehicles. But they do wish to look
into this again in the future. This is a savings of $44,000 from the initial quote. Captain Smith
added that once the system is in place anyj emergency vehicle can add on to the system with no
problem. Staff met with the State and received';all necessary approvals. The complete program will
cost $162,400 for all the intersections excepti Bowman Road at Sunrise Road and County Road
122 at Forest Creek which will be done in the future.
Councilman Stluka asked if the Williamson County emergency units will use this system.
Captain Smith responded that they are interested and the City will try to help them get on the
system.

that a municipality has to prohibit or regulate the sale, storage, and use of fireworks within the City
limits and within a 5,000 foot buffer. He used a map to point out the City limits, 5,000 buffer,
and location of four fireworks stands within the buffer. Two fireworks stands are on FM1325,
one is on RR620, and one is on IH -35 south of the City. He noted that Round Rock has adopted
an ordinance prohibiting the storage, sale, and use of fireworks within the City limits and within
5,000 feet outside the City limits, and defining such activity as a nuisance. It also authorizes the
Fire Marshal, Chief of Police, or their designated agents to seize all fireworks offered for sale,
sold, stored, or held in violation of the ordinance. Municipal Court is the appropriate place for
prosecution of violations of this ordinance, even the violations outside the City limits. If
necessary, under State law, the City can get an injunction by the District Court to prohibit the sale,
storage, or use of fireworks within the prohibited area. He concluded that the City's ordinance is
on solid ground and is enforceable.
Mayor Culpepper asked that the Municipal Court Judge use the maximum fine for
violations of this ordinance because of the danger to the public health and safety of the citizens.

made the staff presentation. On June 5, 1996 the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended
amending Chapter 11 (the Zoning Ordinance) to provide standards for mini -warehouses. Staff
concurs with the recommendation.
Councilman Joseph said, "Somebody buying a 50 foot strip of frontage and buying
additional acreage in the back is going to come out far ahead than somebody buying 400 feet of
frontage and trying to comply with landscaping. For example, the mini -warehouse on RR620.
There is nothing to address this and could we not increase the width of the lot frontage." Vining
responded that, in fact, a flag lot could be created with 50 foot of frontage and put some use in
front that might not cover up the mini -house project and would not achieve the desired results.
Vining asked that the Council approve the first reading only to allow staff to review Councilman
Joseph's concern.

10.G. Consider a resolution authorizingthe he Mqyor to execute an engineering agreement
for modifications to the City's water disinfection system. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation.
Last fall Public Works initiated a redesign of the City's disinfection system to change to
chloramines.
The new disinfection system improvements have performed their intended design,
however, the chlorine equipment at the Main Well site requires the system pressures to be boosted.
The static pressure from Tower Drive tank is not sufficient to operate the newly installed chlorine
equipment, i.e., the tank has to be kept completely full for the equipment to sustain a reliable
vacuum pressure. Since maintaining a completely full tank at all times is impractical, additional
modifications to boost the pressure at the Main Well is necessary.
Additionally, the change to chloramines involves proportioning ammonia gas based on real
time chlorine levels. Currently, the ammonia equipment is capable of providing proper dosage, but
not in an automatic mode. Subsequently, automatic control is crucial to maintaining a reliable
ammonia dosage. These new improvements will allow the equipment to run without constant site
inspections.
Mayor Culpepper read the following resolution.
RESOLUTION NO.
WHEREAS, the City of Round Rock desires to retain engineering services for
modifications to the City's water disinfection system, and
WHEREAS, Camp Dresser McKee, has submitted an agreement to provide said services,

7.C. Consider a presentation concerningthe he City of Austin Water and Wastewater Utility's
expert knowledge based forecasting project. Hugh Bender made the staff presentation. The City
of Austin Water and Wastewater Utility surveyed 105 experts in the private and public sector
regarding future growth trends in the Austin Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). These experts
are known to have a broad and lengthy background in issues related to growth in the MSA.
The primary focus of the survey asked respondents to "map" locations of future growth for
three separate areas: residential, commercial and industrial. Each category was subdivided into
three time periods: short term (1995-2000), mid term (2001-2020) and long term (2020-2040).
The results were that the areas between Cedar Park, Round Rock, Pflugerville, and a portion of
southwest Travis County will be the high growth areas. The Pflugerville area was targeted as a
high growth area due to the proposed Samsung development. Results from the survey show that
Round Rock has a good future in commercial, industrial and residential developments. Round
Rock is the only area that saw strong growth in all three land use areas.
7.D. Consider an update concerningthe he Regional Sewer Project. Jim Nuse made the staff
presentation. The Wastewater Plant construction is moving forward and the first phase will be
completed by the end October of this year. All the major provisions have been substantially agreed
to. Currently, the exhibits are being "fine tuned" especially the section concerning how the assets
will be exchanged between the particular parties. These documents should be completed in two
weeks and will be brought to the Council for approval.
7.E. Consider a presentation concerning reinstating impact fees for commercial and
industrial development. Bob Bennett made the staff presentation. The City has been waiving
Water and Wastewater impact fees, since 1990, for all commercial and industrial developments.
The Council, in an attempt to stimulate the economy, waived impact fees for industrial and
commercial properties about the same time the half cent sales tax for ad valorem tax reduction was
being instituted. The policy to automatically waive impact fees for industry and commerce has
served the City very well and continues to be the position of the City. Bennett asked the Council to
begin thinking about this policy and how it is tied to the budget. The fees amount to a considerable
amount of money to the utility but on the other hand generates a lot of money on the ad valorem
taxes. For example, a particular business is not charged impact fees and really doesn't create a lot
of jobs but it does have a fairly substantial impact on the water system. On the other hand, an
industry that doesn't require a lot of water has their fees waived and have a substantial impact on
the City. The lack of capital recovery fees had something to do with the industry locating in Round
Rock. This is something that staff would like to discuss further at a work session in August.
David Kautz briefly presented the financial side of impact fees. He said that an impact fee
study is performed, as required by law, every three years. Historically, the City has adopted an
impact fee that is below the recommendation made by the consultants performing the study. The
current fee for residential connection to the utility system is $1,345 for water and $1,250 for
J
ii
7;�
996
wastewater. He added that if the capital ree
g
li
fe
was instituted for commercial development it
would likely yield approximately $800,00
ar
Due to the great surge in population and the
demand on the City utility system substan

signs
are required. Kautz suggested that the
Council look into the terms of institute
i'
p'
ct
fees as a specific tool both for economic
development and to take pressure off the C
'Is
ti11 l
rates for the future. Kautz gave examples of
what the rate would mean if instituted for s
�
industries and commercial developments.

1O.B. Consider a resolution directing the publication of Notice of Intention to issue City of
Round Rock Texas Anticipation Notes Series 1996 and other matters related thereto. David
Kautz made the staff presentation. In the near future, the City expects to enter into a regional
agreement with the Lower Colorado River Authority (LORA) and the Brazos River Authority
(BRA) for the providing of wastewater treatment services.
In the event that the agreement is delayed, the City must preserve it's ability to adequately
finance the $17 million Wastewater Treatment Plant which is currently under construction. Staff
proposed to do that by the issuance of interim, short-term financing called BAN's (Bond
Anticipation Notes).
The City must publish a note of intent to issue these notes in the newspaper, which it is
required by the Attorney General, because the City is pledging water and wastewater revenue to the
repayment of the BAN's.
This resolution authorizes publication of the notice only once and does not initiate the
issuance of the BAN's. Staff is monitoring the progress of the agreement on a daily basis and at
this point do not even anticipate to publish the notification in the newspaper but it could be
necessary for us to do it in the next couple of weeks.
Mayor Culpepper read the following resolution.
RESOLUTION NO.
RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE PUBLICATION OF NOTICE OF INTENTION TO ISSUE
CITY OF ROUND ROCK, TEXAS ANTICIPATION NOTES, SERIES 1996 AND OTHER
MATTERS RELATED THERETO.
WHEREAS, the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Round Rock, Texas (the
"City") has determined it to be in the City's best interest to issue a series of notes to make certain
water and wastewater system improvements (the "Anticipation Notes"); and
WHEREAS, the City finds that the payment in whole or in part of contractual obligations
incurred or to be incurred for improvements and extensions to the City's combined water and
wastewater system including (i) treatment plant expansions, and (ii) payment of professional
services including legal, fiscal, architectural, engineering and any costs of issuance including
funding a reserve fund (the "Improvements") would be beneficial to the inhabitants of the City and
are needed to perform essential City functions; and
WHEREAS, the Council has deemed it advisable to give notice of intention to issue the
Anticipation Notes in a maximum principal amount not to exceed $11,500,000 pursuant to the
provisions of Article 717w Vernon's Annotated Texas Civil Statutes, as amended, for the purpose
of financing the Improvements; and
WHEREAS, prior to issuance of the Anticipation Notes, the City is required under Article
2368a and Chapter 252, Local Government Code, to publish notice of its intention to issue the
Anticipation Notes in a newspaper of general circulation in the City; and
WHEREAS, the meeting at which this Resolution is adopted was open to the public and
public notice of the time, place and purpose of the meeting was given, all as required by Chapter
551, Texas Government Code, as amended.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ROUND ROCK, TEXAS:
1. Attached hereto as Exhibit "A" is a form of the Notice of Intention to issue the
Anticipation Notes, the form and substance of which is hereby adopted and approved.

of the Anticipation Notes, as shown in the notice.
3. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon adoption. The Mayor and
City Secretary are hereby authorized and directed to execute the certificate to which this Resolution

PUBLIC HEARINGS:
8.A. Consider public testimony concerning the request filed by Development Co.,
Inc to amend Planned Unit Development No. 2. (Crystal Park) Joe Vining made the staff
presentation. Emkay was the original developer of Crystal Park. The land has now all been sold
by the parties and the reference to an Umbrella Agreement in the PUD document has become a
hinderance to the owners. Staff recommended that the PUD be amended to remove this language
to clarify and simplify references to the Homeowners Association under the "Umbrella Clause".
Mayor Culpepper opened the public hearing. There being no public testimony, the public
hearing was closed.
8.B. Consider public testimony concerningthe he request to rezone 5.64 acres of land from
C-1 (General Commercial) to I-1 (General Industrial). (Lot 2, Block A, Corridor Park 1) Joe
Vining made the staff presentation. This is the site of another facility that Security Capital will
develop. Staff recommended that the zoning for this tract be changed from C-1 (General
Commercial) to I-1 (General Industrial).
Mayor Culpepper opened the public hearing. There being no public testimony, the public
hearing was closed.
8.C. Consider public testimony concerningthe he request to amend PUD No. 6 (Oaklands
Section 4 "Tanglewood Subdivision"). Joe Vining made the staff presentation. When this PUD
was created, the developer felt that the large lots would be enhanced by installing a greenbelt
between the interior lots. Now that this area is fully developed the property owners requested that
the greenbelt be removed. This action would require an amendment to this PUD as well as
replatting the area to remove the easement and to realign the lot lines so that each of the property
owners would own a portion of the greenbelt. Staff recommended approval of the change to PUD
No. 6.
Mayor Culpepper opened the public hearing. There being no public testimony, the public
hearing was closed.
ORDINANCES:
9.A. Consider an ordinance to amend Planned Unit Development No. 2 (Crystal Park).

Land made the staff presentation. Annually, staff recommends how revenue derived from school
offenses be allocated. Currently, the account has a balance of $18,000. Staff recommended
necessary school zone improvements at the two new schools, Forest Creek Elementary and
Hopewell Middle School, in the amount of $10,000. These improvements will include flashing
school zone signs.
Land added that this past school year the City worked with Deepwood Elementary devising
a portable 20 mph speed limit sign to help crossing guards slow down traffic at crosswalks. These
"test" signs were very successful and staff recommended that $750 be spent for signs at all the
elementary schools.
Staff also recommended that $2,000 be placed in the contingency fund for routine
replacement and/or repair of existing school zone signs during the year.
The total proposed expenditures is $12,750 leaving a balance in the fund of $5,250.

hired so the pool hours can be extended from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. beginning Monday, July 15,
1996. He noted that a letter to the Editor was sent to the Round Rock Leader regarding the pool.
Bennett informed the Council that the concerns that the individual reported on were already taken
care of. Bennett also informed the Council that the utility budget was completed and it includes
funds for the purchase of additional water. He added that staff was not proposing any kind of rate
increase. Staff asked the Brazos River Authority to send a contract to the Council for the purchase
of an additional 10,000 acre-feet of water from Stillhouse Hollow Lake. This purchase will not
effect the utility rates because the funds are already built into the budget. The first payment would
be due in February, 1997. The line to the Martin Hill Reservoir would act as an emergency line.
This additional 10,000 -acre feet of water would serve a population base of about 175,000.
Bennett noted that staff was concerned that there would not be a lot of water left to be contracted
for in the State due to the drought.
Nuse reported on the status of the wells and explained how much 10,000- acre feet of
water is.

address all of them together instead of individually. It was also difficult to accomplish goals
because four of the Commission members were youth and their school schedule sometimes
prevented them from attending meetings. The Commission recommended that the Sunset Provision
in the ordinance creating the Youth Commission be allowed to stand and to create a Youth Needs
Committee that would be on-going. The Committee would receive input from the community on
youth projects. The projects would be prioritized and addressed one at a time. Hickman thanked
the Council for allowing him to serve on the Youth Commission.
Mayor Culpepper thanked Hickman for his and the Commission's efforts. He asked if the
Youth Needs Committee would consist of the same people as was on the Youth Commission.
Hickman said that he would recommend other individuals. He added that former members of the
Youth Task Force had expressed interest in participating in certain projects and possibly they
could be considered.
Mayor Pro -tem Palmer asked if several committees could be established. Hickman said yes;
that way if someone is interested in joining a particular committee they could do so.
Mayor Culpepper asked if the Youth Commission was presently working on a particular
goal that needed to be addressed. Hickman said no.
Councilman Stewart asked that the recommendation from the Youth Commission be
discussed at the Council's upcoming retreat.
7.B. Consider a presentation concerning an update on the Street Maintenance Program.
Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. The last time the Street Maintenance Program was addressed
was when the bid was awarded. The contractor did not fulfill the performance terms of the
contract and streets have always been a priority of the Council and staff. The bond issue was
approved and the engineering contracts were awarded for the first phase of streets that are going to
be improved. Award of the contract for the first micro -surface seal project is on the agenda to
upgrade the Sealcoat Program.
Al Wille, Chief Engineer/Assistant Public Works Director, explained specifics of the
Sealcoat Program and proposed Street Maintenance Projects. He said that the first project is a
reissue of the 1995 Street Maintenance Program. The areas of the project are the South Creek
Subdivision, Chisholm Valley Subdivision, Kensington Subdivision, Twin Ridge Subdivision,
and Harrell Parkway in Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley. Wille outlined the proposed schedule and
cost estimates. Staff proposed to advertise and open the bids on August 13 and a recommendation
for award of the contract will be brought to the Council on August 22. Construction is proposed
for September, and completion of the project is in October. Wille used a map to explain the
locations and conditions of the streets that will be in the Sealcoat Program. The 1996 Street
Maintenance Program will include a contract for a pilot program for micro -surfacing both sections
of the Oak Bluff Estates Subdivision. The remaining funds in the 1996 Program is proposed for
street improvements in the Greenslopes Subdivision and Windy Park Subdivision in the Spring of

requested support and guidance from the Council and Chamber of Commerce to establish a first
rate Keep Round Rock Beautiful Program to insure that Round Rock's quality of life remains first
class. Benoit -Beatty said that she has a video tape that the Council can review at their retreat if
they wish. It is the 1994 Program that shows who the winners were in each category for the last
two years.
Mayor Culpepper asked what was needed to apply for the $60,000 from TXDOT. Benoit -
Beatty said the City needs to take on more projects than is presently being done by the Chamber.
In order for the program to work, there has to be a strong City commitment. She said that she has
an outline of criteria on what the City would be judged on.
7.E. Consider a presentation concerning the Pilot Program for speed humps. Amelia
Sondgeroth, Senior Planner, summarized the results of the speed hump study that the Council
approved in July 1995. Flat-topped speed humps were installed in three neighborhoods in March
and April of this year. Two speed humps were placed on Woods Boulevard, one on Peterson
Street and one on Fairlane Drive. A traffic and volume study was done on the streets in May 1996.
The results showed that the speed on Woods Boulevard was 28 mph 85% of the time and that
occurred right before and after the speed hump. Volume studies were also done on Fairlane Drive
and Peterson Street and found that the traffic was reduced by about 3% to 4%. Surveys were sent
to the resident that live on these streets. A positive response was received from the residents. A
majority of the residents (68%) felt that the speed humps were effective in reducing speed each of
the neighborhoods. Of the respondents, 65% feel that the speed hump program should be
continued. Visual observation and response from the residents showed that the speed humps
caused motorist generally to slow down at the speed hump picking up speed immediately after the
speed hump. One of the major concerns was from the Fire Department and EMS in that speed
humps delay the emergency response time. Studies have shown that to reduce the speed on a
street, especially a long street, a series of speed humps would be required. The total cost of a speed
hump that was done by the City was approximately $1,600. If the work was contracted out it
would cost approximately $2,000 for each installation.
Jim Nuse said an alternative design, which would be cost effective, for reducing speed is to
use a rumble strip in a pilot study instead of a speed hump. Part of the reason individuals speed in
the neighborhoods is due to inattentiveness so if a series of the rumble strips are placed on the
street right at the speed limit sign it will get the attention of the driver and he will reduce his speed.
The next pilot program will be in Hermitage Subdivision and the rumble strips will be used.
7.F. Consider a presentation concerning the results of the recent Customer Survey. Dale
Ricklefs made the staff presentation. Council received a copy of the final report of the survey that
the staff developed and tested. One hundred twenty-six (126) randomly selected voters completed

acres of land. At this time, there is approximately 1000 acres of open space. As for facility
development, a golf course was developed, as well as a swimming pool, sports complexes, and a
number of projects in the neighborhoods. The acreage per capita in 1984 was 11 acres per 1000
population now it's 23 acres per 1000 population. Partnerships were developed with the School
District concerning swimming, tennis, and other programs. There is a good working relation with
youth sports associations. Programs that were developed were a Senior Citizen Program, Pre-
school Program, expansion of sports programs, and the addition of special events activities. Prete
added that the other chapter is a Needs Prioritization and Implementation Plan. The grant
application is for a $1,281,400 million dollar project. The funding sources for the grant application
are $576,400 of G.O. Bond funds, $500,000 grant match, $100,000 from the Sportsfield
Development Fund, and $5,000 from the Pop Warner Football Association.
Mayor Culpepper asked Prete to contact the National Guard if heavy equipment dirt work is
required.
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
8.A. Consider public testimony for the submittal of arg_ant application to the Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department's Texas Local Parks Recreation and Open Space Fund for a proposed
park that is in a floodplain/wetland area and could have certain environmental impact on the area.
Sharon Prete made the staff presentation. A public hearing is required for the submittal of a Texas
Recreation and Parks Account Grant Application. This is to provide the citizens an opportunity to
voice their opinions concerning the grant application. A notice was placed in the Round Rock
Leader newspaper and one call was received inquiring what park the application was for.
Mayor Culpepper opened the public hearing. There being no public testimony, the public
hearing was closed.

staff and it accurately represents the financial and economic position of the City. He said, "We
hope to fix the rate on August 27. The market has been fairly volatile but we have seen a little
more stability in the last week and are hopeful that it will continue forward." He added,
"Relatively speaking, 25 year tax exempt municipal rates below 6% are still very good and that's
where we are today. We think that we will end up somewhere below 6% and, historically, that is
pretty tough to beat." Moody's noted that the economic diversity of the City, strong financial
management and conservative budgeting and reserve position were the City's major strengths for
the upgrade.

The Round Rock City Council met in Work Session on Friday, August 9,

ROLL CALL: Those members present were Mayor Charles Culpepper,
Mayor Pro -tem Earl Palmer, Councilman Robert Stluka, Councilman Rod Morgan, Councilman
Rick Stewart, Councilwoman Martha Chavez and Councilman Jimmy Joseph. Also present were
City Manager Bob Bennett, Assistant City Manager/City Secretary Joanne Land, City Attorney
Steve Sheets, Director of Planning Joe Vining, Director of Parks and Recreation Sharon Prete,
Library Director Dale Ricklefs, Police Chief Buster Kuhlmann, Fire Chief Lynn Bizzell, Director
of Public Works Jim Nuse, and Director of Finance David Kautz.
WORK SESSION:
3.A. Consider discussion concerning the proposed 1996-1997 Operating Budget Bob
Bennett highlighted portions of the budget. The City departments developed two-year budgets this
year in an effort to identify the impact of current year programs on the future. This two-year
concept has been presented in the proposed budget. The second year budget will not be formally
adopted in the budget process but is presented as an aid to decision making. The proposed budget
shows an 18% increase over the 1995-1996 budget. Though the proposed budget reflects
substantial growth in operations, personnel and capital equipment, these costs will be carefully
phased in as the certainty of available revenue is determined. Even though the growth in City sales
tax receipts is historically strong and the continuation of this growth is expected, budgeted program
costs will not be implemented until revenue is realized. Staff will have a quarterly budget meeting
with the Council to inform them on the status of the budget. Bennett added that as a result of the
Council's community development efforts and the region's strong economy, this budget plan is
able to encompass higher service levels without corresponding rate increases. This is the fifth year
in a row, that the property tax rate has decreased and the water/wastewater utility rates have not
increased since 1991. To fund operations such as police services, street maintenance, fire
protection, library, parks and recreation and debt service, the City levies a tax on all taxable
property. This budget plan requires a tax rate of 39.984 cents per $100 of property value,
compared to a rate of 42.635 cents per $100 last year. The proposed tax rate is less than the current
year tax rate. While the property tax is effectively decreasing, for this year total tax revenue to the
City is increasing because of additional properties added to the tax rolls. Furthermore, analysis of
the tax levy on a per capita basis indicates that per capita taxes have slightly increase this year. This
fact does not result from an increase in the tax rate, but reflects the increased value of new
construction. This budget will be based more on performance measurement. It is important to not
only plan for and provide adequate levels of quality service but to also provide a means of
measuring and reporting the results of our efforts. As more information is provided about how we
are performing, the Council, public, staff , and others can determine the value of programs, where
improvements could be made or where resources might be better applied. As funding levels are set

supply reserves from Lake Stillhouse from 8,134 acre feet to 18,134 acre feet. The new reserves
can be secured from the Brazos River Authority (BRA), but at a higher cost than the old reserves.
Reserve water costs will increase by $235,000. Other operating costs increasing significantly are
power costs. Due to the high water demand during the current drought conditions, pumping costs
are expected to increase by $250,000 next year.
The wastewater treatment plant budget reflects the conveyance of the treatment plant to the
Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). The LCRA and the Brazos River Authority (BRA) have
formed an alliance which will own and operate the two wastewater treatment plants in Round
Rock. The alliance will also expand the plants as necessary to accommodate a regional treatment
concept which ultimately will include the cities of Cedar Park, Austin and others. Costs have
significantly increased for wastewater treatment this year, reflecting the completion of $21,000,000
in plant expansions necessary to handle the City's wastewater flows. The budgeted costs, while
increased, are less than expected prior to the LCRA/BRA acquisition. The Wastewater Treatment
plant budget reflects a net increased cost of approximately $1,000,000 for the upcoming year
reflecting, primarily, the capital cost of the plant expansion. The Water/Wastewater utility operating
budget is balanced in part with a scheduled use of working capital derived from the sale of
wastewater facilities to the LCRA. The working capital is being applied to the remaining annual
debt service on outstanding sewer system bonds. Growth in the customer base and capital recovery
fees help absorb these costs without increasing the monthly water or wastewater bills this year.
However, the increased costs for securing water supplies and construction and operation of
expanded plants are expected to require rate increases over the next 2 or 3 years of 5% to 7%. The
outlook for the future is that Round Rock will be tied more to the national and international
economy.
The budget also contains funding for an on-going plan to fully automate all departments
over the next few years. The City's computer automation goal is to provide a fully network,
client/server environment. Such a network will eliminate the need for large, separate mainframe
systems by providing interconnected modular component systems. As systems become fully
interconnected or integrated the system users will be able to share and transfer data with greater
ease, improving the efficiency of the departments tremendously. The City computerization
upgrades also enable fully functional access to the internet. This access places the City in a position
of being able to readily communicate via the internet with commercial enterprises and institutions.
A longer term computer project, will be an upgrade of the financial systems computer.
Councilman Stluka said, "The compilation of this document is the best that I has ever seen.
It has made the Council's life easier. I feel comfortable enough to not have to go line by budget
line."
David Kautz summarized the proposed 1996-1997 Operating Budget by department. He

Joanne Land noted that the budget includes a part-time person for the Personnel Department
which will be implemented in the second half of the fiscal year.
Jim Nuse briefly outlined proposed items in the budget and goals for the Public Works

6.13. Consider a proclamation proclaiming United Wa rDaDay.
Mayor Culpepper read the appropriate proclamation and presented it to Rick Akins,

$420,000. He thanked the Council and citizens for all the support they have given in the past
years. Debbie Hoffman, Executive Director of the Round Rock United Way, was also present.
PRESENTATIONS:
7.A. Consider a presentation by Bruce Gill Executive Director, Round Rock Housing
Authority, concerning the annual report. Bruce Gill, Executive Director of the Round Rock
Housing Authority, gave his annual report. The Round Rock Housing Authority completed its
fiscal year on June 30, 1996. Eighty-seven (87) of the eighty-eight (88) units are occupied and
there are approximately fifty applicants for that one available unit.
The Section 8 Program is fully leased with 65 families in Section 8 housing. The waiting
list for this program is about 100 and currently additional applications are not being taken.
During this past fiscal year, the Housing Authority was successful in obtaining $84,000
from HUD for modifications of its units as well as the office/community buildings at the three
projects. These modifications will bring the facilities into compliance with Section 504 of the
American with Disabilities Act. This work is currently in the planning stage and will be completed
by the end of the year.
An application for more comprehensive improvements for the three housing projects was
submitted to HUD for Fiscal Year 1996 funds. A decision should be made by September 30th on
the request for funds.
At year-end the Housing Authority increased its operating reserve to $10,000 in the Section
8 Program. That is from a negative $1,000 to a positive $10,000. The Public Housing Program
has $23,000. Total income from all sources for the Round Rock Housing Authority for this fiscal
year was $551,563.
In the new fiscal year, the admission and dwelling lease policies for both programs will be
revised to implement President Clinton's "One Strike and You're Out" Policy. The Housing
Authority will work closely with the Round Rock Police Department and the Department of Public
Safety as part of the screening process.
The Round Rock Development Corporation has worked closely with the Williamson
County Task Force on Domestic Violence as a possible partner in providing transitional housing to
families from the emergency shelter to self-sufficiency. The Corporation also met with the
Affordable Housing Corporation in Austin and Habitat for Humanity in attempts to bring more
affordable housing to Round Rock. The Corporation and the Texas Baptist Children's Home co -
hosted a meeting with local ministers in an effort to coordinate church resources related to housing

ACTION: The motion carried unanimously.
9.13. Consider an ordinance repealing the exemption from Water and Wastewater Impact
Fees for commercial and industrial development. (First Reading) Jim Nuse made the staff
presentation. In order to financially prepare for future major water and wastewater improvements
staff recommended to repeal the exemption from Water and Wastewater Impact Fees for
commercial and industrial development. Any exemptions will still be able to be made on a case by
case basis by the City Council.
The Council discussed repealing the exemption for Water and Wastewater Impact fees for
commercial and industrial development.
Mayor Pro -tem Palmer said that he would like to see some parameters for waiving the fees.
Mayor Culpepper said that he would not like to see a requirement replaced with another
requirement that would tie up staff's time. He added that commercial development is market driven
and Round Rock is the place retailers want to be so there is no need to waive the impact fees. If an
industry that the Council thinks fits in the City's industrial area then waiving the impact fees can be
used as a tool to attract that industry. The industrial development community needs to realize that
waiving impact fees is always on the table for negotiations. Mayor Culpepper added that the City is
going to build a very expensive water line that is going to have to be paid for by either increasing
water rates or tap fees.
Councilman Morgan said that at first he had reservations about whether to repeal the
exemption for impact fees and whether it was the right thing to do. Waiving impact fees was done
in 1990 to stimulate economic growth which the City needed and he was not sure if the need was
still there. But he got some information from Jim Nuse and Bob Bennett and studied the water
usage charts for industrial, commercial, and residential which changed his mind. He added, "I
want to make sure that the message that is being sent out is not interpreted wrong. I want to make
sure that this is not interpreted as the Council not having a pro-business attitude. We are very much
pro-business but we have got to be concerned about the welfare, future, and health of our utility
system and if this needs to be done to provide stable rates for the future for all rate payers then we
do it." Councilman Morgan added that he agreed with both Mayor Pro -tem Palmer that some kind
of criteria is needed and Mayor Culpepper that people will locate here because there are enough
people to support their business.
Mayor Culpepper added that the City was unique when they began waiving impact fees for
businesses and agreed that the Council does not want to send out the wrong message. The message
that needs to be sent out is that the Council is fiscally responsible.
Mayor Pro -tem Palmer added that other entities charge impact fees.
Mayor Culpepper read the caption of the ordinance.

the Bonds,• Approving an Official Statement,• Authorizing the Execution of a Purchase Agreement, a
Paying Agent/Registrar Agreement and a Letter of Representations, and an Escrow Agreement;
Making Certain Continuing Disclosure Covenants Under Rule 15c12-12; Calling: Certain
Obligations for Redemption and Ordaining Other Matters Relating to the Issuance of the Bonds."
(First Readings David Kautz made the staff presentation. Staff is proposing to issue $12 million
in General Obligation Bonds which is a portion of a voted authorization and approximately $1.1
million dollars in Refunding Bonds. The total issuance is $13,125,000.00. Staff recommended
approval of the sale of the bonds.
Garry Kimball of First Southwest Company, the City's Financial Advisors, explained the
transaction concerning the bonds and distributed a packet of information outlining the proceeds of
the bond issue, outlined the final debt service associated with the bonds and the yield statistics
where it shows the 5.77 net interest cost that the City received, a debt service comparison showing
the debt service per year compared with information given to the Council on August 8th, a graph of
Tax Exempt Yields over the past three months, and yield comparisons of two other Texas School
Districts that were in the market on the same day.
Bob Bennett said that the Council made a decision in the spring not to issue the bonds in
June. If the issue had been done in June, the City would not have received the 5.77 interest cost
but an even higher rate.

Brochure Racks for Visitor Center - $1,000 - As a Center for State information, it is
imperative that as much information for the tourist and traveler be displayed. The existing
brochures holders are crowded and difficult to keep organized. These wall racks will utilize wall
space with brochure "pocket" units and will keep the brochures organized.
New Travel Show Display - $4,500 - The current trade show display is ten years old. It is
heavy, cumbersome and difficult for one person to move and set up. The pictures and tent are
worn and out of date. A new display, designed for Round Rock with new pictures, text and
lighting will make a strong first impression at the travel shows.
The Tourism Event funding recommendations by the Tourism Committee were reviewed
by Rackley. The Williamson County Humane Society will be provided "seed money" for their
event, instead of recommending they receive a grant. If they have a good year, they will pay the
loan back, without interest, 30 days after the event. Several new events were recommended to
receive funding. They are Daffodil Days, Round Rock Historic Homes Tour, Accordion Kings,
and Festejo Folklorico.
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
8.A. Consider public testimony concerningthe proposed 1996-1997 Operating _Bud eg t for
the City of Round Rock. David Kautz made the staff presentation. Kautz said that prior to the

The budget does not propose an increase in the City's tax rate or the utility rates. The budget has
been balanced at the Effective Tax Rate of $0.39880 which is down from last year's $0.42635.

The Round Rock City Council met in Work Session and Regular Session on Thursday,
September 26, 1996 in the City Council Chamber, 221 E. Main Street.
CALL WORK SESSION TO ORDER - 6:00 P.M.
ROLL CALL: Those members present were Mayor Charles Culpepper,
Mayor Pro -tem Earl Palmer, Councilman Robert Stluka, Councilman Rod Morgan,
Councilwoman Martha Chavez and Councilman Jimmy Joseph. Councilman Rick Stewart was
absent. 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 on funding requested by Social Service agencies. David Kautz
made the staff presentation. The City received funding requests from Williamson County Health
Unit, Williamson County Crisis Center, CARTS (Capital Area Rural Transportation), Senior
Citizen Nutrition, Williamson County Mental Health, Williamson County Day Care, Literacy
Council, Round Rock Caregivers, and Round Rock Volunteer Center.
Kautz outlined a summary of the funding requests that included the amount that was funded
in 1995-1996, the amount that was included in the proposed 1996-1997 budget, the amount that
was requested, and the difference between the amount that was requested and what was funded the
previous year. He said that of all the agencies that requested funding Williamson County Health
Unit was funded in the proposed budget at the level of their request. If the Council approved all of
the requests it would represent an additional requirement of $23,225 or a total funding in the
proposed budget of $167,730. The Council was provided with a format of revenue and
expenditure figures and program information from each of the agencies.
The Council went over each of the requests. The Council did not have any questions,
problems or concerns with the requests from the Williamson County Health Unit, the Williamson
County Crisis Center, the Senior Citizen Nutrition, the Williamson County Day Care, or the
Literacy Council, The Council had questions concerning the CARTS and Williamson County
Mental Health requests. Mayor Culpepper wanted to know what level of service CARTS provides
and how important CARTS service is in Round Rock. He also wanted to visit with Ms. Mary Bott
before making a decision on the Williamson County Mental Health request.
Kautz said that generally what staff found from most of the agencies requests was that they
were either faced with increasing cost or they have seen funding cutbacks in other areas.
Mayor Pro -tem Palmer said that he visited with the Round Rock Caregivers. This is the
first time they requested funds and this program is very beneficial to the community. They receive
most of their money from churches and do not receive federal funding. He outlined some of the
services the agency provides.
Pat Patterson of the Volunteer Center outlined her request for funding. She said the
increase in her request was reflective of the growth of the City and the additional work the Center

ACTION: The motion carried unanimously.
Tom Norris, 2908 Victoria Cove, expressed his concern regarding the proposed
amendment to the restriction regarding parking trailers on public streets. He asked the Council to
modify the amendment to allow a 24 hour parking time instead of 5 minutes. This would allow
him to park his 30 foot travel trailer, that he keeps in a storage area, in front of his house in order
to prepare it for a trip.
Mayor Culpepper asked Dr. Norris if he could park the trailer in his driveway. Dr. Norris
said no because the driveway was too steep.
Steve Sheets pointed out that the amendment to the existing ordinance was not the time limit
because the time limit was set 15 years ago.
Ray Eufracio, 811 Riverlawn, said he read an article in the Austin American Statesman that
the Mexican American School was going to be demolished. He asked the Council to help save the
structure where the Mexican American children received their education. He suggested that the
structure be moved to a location in Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley along with Hopewell School in
order to preserve a part of Round Rock's history.
Mayor Pro -tem Palmer explained that the structure used to be Bill Todd's parents
residence. In January, Mr. Todd requested permission from the Historic Preservation Commission
to demolish the structure because he could not sell his property until that was done. The
Commission informed Mr. Todd that he would need to wait 120 days before the structure could be
demolished. Mr. Todd sold the property so the building now belongs to the new property owner
and the demolition permit was also transferred to the new owners. Mayor Pro -tem Palmer said
Mr. Todd tried to save the building but had no way of doing it.
Mayor Culpepper asked staff to contact the new property owner to see what they have
planned for the structure and to see if they can work with the City to save the building.
In response to Councilman Stluka's question, Vining said that the only legal notice that was
required was the posting of the Historic Preservation Commission agenda. He added that staff had
worked with the new property owners to help them design the structure into their site plan but the
idea was not feasible.

11 B Consider public testimony concerning the proposed 1996 property tax rate. David
Kautz made the staff presentation. The Operating Budget for fiscal year 1996-1997 is balanced at
the Effective Tax Rate. The Effective Tax Rate, calculated by the City's Tax Assessor/Collector,
raises the same amount of tax revenue from properties on the roll this year that were also on the roll
last year. The following proposed rate is below last year's rate of $0.42635 and will fund, in part,
General Fund operations and new debt service on the recent $12 million G.O. Bond issue:
Maintenance and Operations Component $0.17537
Debt Service Component $0.22343
Proposed Tax Rate for 1996-97 $0.39880
Kautz outlined a graph of tax rates for the years from 1993 to 1997.

followed through to improve the amount of water that is produced to the amount of water that is
billed. Staff is also working on methods to improve the unmetered use and metered use through the

for.

ACTION: The motion carried unanimously.
14.E. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute any and all documents
necessary to convey a portion of the City's wastewater treatment system to the Lower Colorado
River Authority. Steve Sheets made the staff presentation. On July 12, 1996, the City and the
Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) entered into an agreement for the acquisition of
wastewater system assets whereby the City agreed to convey certain portions of the City's
wastewater system to the LCRA. The conveyance of the assets will occur in multiple closing over
the next several weeks or months. One of the closings actually began this afternoon and will finish
tomorrow morning. This resolution authorizes the Mayor to execute any and all documents
necessary to close the conveyance of those assets over the next few weeks or months. The closings
are expected to take place before December 12, 1996.
David Kautz summarized the transaction. The City is conveying City owned assets to the
Lower Colorado River Authority. Total conveyance to the LCRA is $17.6 million to occur in four
closings. One will occur October 11, 1996 for $6.667 million, the second closing will be
approximately $2.2 million, and the third closing will actually convey the plant that is currently
under construction. The figure for the third closing will change until the actual closing date but will
be closer to $10-11 million. The fourth closing will be for $791,000. What the City is essentially
doing with the LCRA ownership is refinancing the assets and LCRA will be paid back over time
through the rate that the LCRA charges the City of Round Rock for wastewater treatment service.
Kautz outlined options for the use of the funds and the Council and staff discussed those options.
Mayor Culpepper acknowledged Jim Clarno who was in the audience. He said that Clarno
was at today's closing. Clarno moved to Round Rock in 1986 and was the manager of what was
then going to be the regional wastewater treatment facility. A lot of things have changed and Clarno
has worn a lot of hats in the last ten years but he was there at the beginning and there at the end.
Mayor Culpepper added that Clarno now works for the LCRA. He thanked him for all his help.
Mayor Culpepper read the following resolution.

regarding the he City of Round Rock vs. Shell Oil Company, et al lawsuit. Steve Sheets made the
staff presentation. A mediation session was held with the Shell Oil Company, Jim Nuse, Jim
Montgomery attorney for the City, Linda Montgomery, legal assistant, and Sheets. Mediation
results were very favorable for the City and were brought to the Council for consideration.
Jim Montgomery added that after a year and a half of litigation a settlement of $7,650,000
was offered to solve the polybutelene pipe situation within the City of Round Rock. He added that
the offer represents one of the best settlements that he had seen in his six years of handling
polybutelene litigation. Montgomery recognized and thanked Fred Russell, Utility Maintenance
Manager, for all his help. He added that Russell did a phenomenal job of keeping track of where
the pipe came from and where it went because people that dig up the pipe don't really care where it
came from. Montgomery recommended that the Council accept the offer.

District in the Austin -San Antonio corridor. Joe Vining made the staff presentation. Senator Jeff
Wentworth and Senator Barrientos have been working on a draft bill that would create a commuter

The District would encompass the cities and counties between Georgetown and San Antonio. A
Board of Directors will be formed from representatives of the cities and counties that are involved
including TXDOT, Capital Metro, VIA, and both of the metropolitan planning organizations from
San Antonio and Austin. The Board will have the powers of a subpolitical agency of the State and
have the power and right of imminent domain to acquire property rather than a city or county using
their power of eminent domain. The Board will have the power to issue bonds, notes, and take

2.24 acres (parcel 2) to C-1 (General Commercial). I agree to work with staff and the
neighborhood on an application for a commercial planned unit development. Sincerely, Terry

10.C. Consider a resolution supporting regional cooperation for the provision of the
emergency 9-1-1 and related services. Mayor Culpepper said that he had asked that this item be
placed on the agenda. There was a surplus in the 9-1-1 funds that were collected by the City's 10
County Capital Area Region. The State 9-1-1 Commission said that enough money was collected
and they want the cities and counties to discontinue collecting the 50¢ charge from everybody's
telephone bill. Mayor Culpepper added that the reason there was a surplus was because the money
was not spent like it was supposed to by CAPCO. If the money is cut there will be a deficit and
the cities or counties will need to provide additional funds for equipment. The Capital Area cities
and counties are being asked to pass a resolution asking the State 9-1-1 Commission to allow them
to continue collecting the 50¢ charge per telephone line for 9-1-1.
Mayor Culpepper read the following resolution.

PRESENTATIONS:
11.A. Consider a presentation by the Romine Group concerning City employee health
insurance. David Kautz made the staff presentation. The City's self-insured health plan year
begins on December 1st and there are some changes that will be effective over the course of the.
year. Bruce Romine and Keith Carmichael of the Romine Group were the City's resource in
helping develop planned options as well as negotiating with health care providers.
Bruce Romine addressed what occurred over the course of this year and with the focus
group in putting together the benefit package for the City. He said that concerns from employees
and the focus group were addressed in the new plan. He outlined the following concerns.
Limited Network Together with the Columbia/St. David's Network they were able to
expand the network. Effective March 1, 1997 City employees and dependents that are covered
under the City plan will be able to access to the Columbia/St. David's Network. This network will
include all Tri -Med physicians and facilities and an additional 500 physicians with St. David's
Hospital, Austin Diagnostic Medical Center, South Austin Medical Center and Bailey Square
Surgical Center.
High Out -of -Pocket Costs Procedures performed at Round Rock Hospital including both
inpatient and outpatient surgeries, diagnostic procedures, room and board and intensive care will
be covered at 100% after the $250 individual calendar year deductible beginning 3/1/97. In -
network physician services and all other Columbia/St. David's facility charges will be covered
under normal in -network plan provisions.
High Rates The City will absorb a 24% increase of its liability without raising any of the
employees premium rates for dependents. After an extensive analysis of the stop -loss reinsurance
market and a preliminary analysis of the fully insured PPO/HMO dual option market, the renewal
offered by the City's third party administrator, HealthCare Benefits, Inc., and the City's
reinsurance carrier, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas, was accepted as actuarially credible.
Slow Claims Adjudication HBI experienced a high volume of new business in the Winter
and Spring of 1996 resulting in a high volume of claims in the Spring and Summer of 1996. After
implementing various procedural safeguards and hiring additional staff, "clean claim" turnaround is
now back to an acceptable ten days or less on claims.

concerning upgrading the e City employee retirement plan. David Kautz introduced Eric Davis of the

only to the proposed rezoning. He noted that this was not a public hearing on Wyoming Springs
Drive or its merit.
Ron Butler, 109 Bonwood, said that the perception he received when he was at a Planning
and Zoning Commission (P&Z) meeting when the residents of the affected area were treated as
non-residents. He added that neighborhoods do not stop where a line is drawn on a piece of paper
or where there is a road and not really heard. All the residents are neighbors whether they actually
live in the City or outside. He asked the Council to listen to the residents concerns for their
neighborhood and to give them as much attention and creditability to their comments as they did to
him and his neighbors when they came before the Council on an issue.
Daisy O'Hara, 3006 Fox Hollow in Tonkawa Springs, said that with some help she
collected 207 signatures from 134 homes in her subdivision that were opposed to this rezoning
proposal. Only two homeowners abstained because they had a conflict of interest. She said that
any development would be premature in lieu of the road being funded or even built and did not
understand the rush to develop the property as commercial since there was commercial property
vacant for years on Sam Bass Road. O'Hara said she was not against growth for Round Rock but
the rezoning request benefitted only the property owner and it leaves 207 homeowners wondering
if we are being disregarded all together. She added that even though her property does not lie
within the City limits it is only a dozen feet away and considers herself a Round Rock resident and
many Tonkawa residents own a business in Round Rock. She asked the Council use caution in
deciding this proposal.
Darryl O'Sichoy, 3204 Quarry Creek, said, "I have been a resident of Tonkawa Springs 18
years this week. I was one of the first 20 residents to move into the area. I have been in the
Homeowners Association as President, Vice -President and currently on the Board of Directors.
The area around Tonkawa Springs has been residential and it appears that the primary rational for
going ahead with the zoning change is the issue of the pending Wyoming Springs extension. The
residents in the area have become accustomed to and enjoy the quiet nature of the single family
non-commercial neighborhood." He requested that the Council carefully weigh this and not
change the zoning from single family to a PUD or commercial.
Lowell Ludecke, resident of 3101 Fox Hollow in Tonkowa Springs since 1981, said
before he bought his house he checked the zoning in the area and it was all zoned single family. He
said, "There are places for commercial development and they are not next door or in the middle of a
residential area." He added that at a previous P&Z meeting he got the impression that a decision
was already made before public testimony was heard. He distributed photos of the area so the
Council could get a better view of the tract under consideration instead of a black and white map.
Mr. Ludecke expressed his concern of the recharge zone, Bear Creek and Tonkawa Springs being
affected by runoff and pollution from the development. He asked the Council to vote no on the
rezoning from single family development to commercial.

impartial on these issues. They represent) 1 11 In t Ullunity and both sides of the issue. She

Tony Abbondanzio, 18212 Whit ead a prepared statement opposing the
commercial zoning and expansion of Wycr He said, "As a ember of the Williamson
County Neighborhood Network I am not i 1.1 zoning change e and I ask that this issue be
shelved until the City of Round Rock cari ad issue with both the residents and non-
residents."
Ken Kraus, 3000 Fox Hollow, s odered if the planners looked at the full
impact of the rezoning request. He said ht Ce1 stand how the commercial zoning would
benefit the City if it was rezoned at this that probably the reason the tracts were
being rezoned was because of a proposed r us opposed the rezoning request.

Karen Marquardt, 2509 Parkridge j I feel that the City of Round Rock has a lot

the City should consider. This area will eventually be in Round Rock and the potential to alienate
future residents is great."
Brad Thorne, 2303 Woodway Drive, asked the Council to vote no to the proposed zoning
change.
Terry Williams, applicant and owner of the tract of land under consideration for rezoning
outlined the proposed development. He said he tried to address, as much as possible, the concerns
of the residents on the use of the two acre tract.
Diana Amescua, 3101 Sam Bass Road, said that Mr. Williams was her next door neighbor
until he moved. Mr. Williams approached them with his plans and they told him then and continue
to tell him that they are opposed to any type of commercial development in the area. She said, " I
have a hard time believing that lights, trash and noise are not going to affect my driveway or
property."
Terry Butler, 3102 Fox Hollow, President of the Tonkowa Springs Homeowners
Association, said that residents from the surrounding subdivisions were present to express their
opposition to the commercial zoning. He said, "I am concerned about the Planning and Zoning
Commission and how it goes about receiving information and making decisions because they
seemed to have already made up their minds before the meeting and seemed somewhat calloused
about hearing people's public testimony." He said that he and his neighbors are opposed to the
rezoning.
Bob Belanger, 902 Garden Path, member of the Planning and Zoning Commission said,
"Whenever citizens or residents come before the Commission in a public hearing format we take it
very seriously." He said he had expressed his concerns of the development when it first came
before the Commission and did not vote for the commercial zoning. He explained why he made
that decision and why he voted for the zoning request the second time it came before the
Commission . He said, "We did not come with a predetermined decision. There was a lot of
discussion because the Commission wanted to make the right decision for the neighborhood and
for the City." He explained why the decision to recommend commercial zoning was made.
Wilford Fox, 3007 Fox Hollow, said he has lived in his home for 10 years and expressed
his opposition of the rezoning request.
There being no further testimony, the public hearing was closed.

Mayor Pro -tem Palmer added that since the residents that spoke at the meeting will soon be

bubbled. Instead of closing the pool in the summer it was decided to have the work done during
the Christmas holidays when families would be out of town or involved in other activities. The
pool is still under warranty so the City will not be paying for the repainting. The contractor's
retainer fee has been held since the summer so the work needs to be completed to close the
contract. There will be a down time of approximately one week depending on the weather. Prete
added that she informed the swim teams that if the weather was not good during the week that the
pool would not be drained and could be used. She noted that there has been some down time this
fall due to the heaters not working properly. An expert from the company will be in town next
week to look at the heaters and make sure that they are working properly.
Councilman Stluka asked Ms. Kraft for the team's schedule over the holidays. Kraft said
that they would be swimming every day during the week except on Christmas Day and New
Year's Day. They are currently doubling up with other teams and/or using day time swimming
which a lot of students can't get to because the parents work even if kids are out of school.
Mayor Pro -tem asked staff to see if they could find a solution to help the swim team. He
also asked Ms. Kraft to contact the City Manager regarding her concern.

the plastic coke bottles has gone from $500 a ton to $20 a ton, and the milk jugs has actually
increased from $200 a ton to $230, and glass has remained constant. He added that the City is
trying to operate this recycling facility as close as to an enterprise as we possibly can and one thing
that staff is looking at is opening a second yard site.
Mackie said that the current Center has room for expansion and given the market for the
materials that this would not be a time to open another Center. He added that before that is done
staff needs to take a look at the market in about 6 months. He noted that curbside recycling is not
free and it was a service like trash pickup and for some reason the general public was lead to
believe that recycling should be very close to free but basically they are being provided a service.
Material is being picked up and there is a cost associated with that.
7.C. Consider a presentation by the Round Rock Independent School District concerning
school financing. Dr. Tom Norris, Superintendent, Mike Jolly, Chief Financial Officer, and Steve
Copenhaver, President of Round Rock Independent School District (RRISD) made a presentation
concerning the School District's financial outlook. Dr. Norris said that the two major factors that
will have an overriding effect on the School District's financial outlook are student growth and
growth in taxable property values.
He added that since 1982, the District has increased enrollment by approximately 240% and
projections indicate that this growth will continue within a range of 4% to 5% annually. Within the
last 5 years, RRISD has had an average growth rate of 27.8%. Out of 76 Texas school districts
that have 10,000 or more students, RRISD ranks ninth in school growth. Student growth increases
the demand to provide school facilities. It also puts stress on the operational capacities to fund start
up costs and support the new student growth.
Taxable property values have varied greatly in the past ten years. In the period from 1986
to 1992 property values declined by approximately $1 billion. By 1995, property values rebounded
increasing over $1 billion. It only took three years to gain back what was lost in five years.
Projections indicate that property values are expected to increase in future years. It has been
reported that Williamson County is the second fastest growing County in the nation.
In 1993-94 fiscal year, RRISD's property values increased by approximately 30%. RRISD
was the fastest growing Texas school district for its size. In 1994-95, Round Rock was the second
fastest growing school district with a 17% growth in property values.
The combination of growth in students and property values affects State and Local
Revenues. State Revenues have two Tiers of funding. Tier I calculates and funds educational
programs based on the number of students and programs provided. Tier II provides additional
funding that is based on local tax effort and property wealth. After Tier I funding levels are
calculated, the District's local share is then determined. Local share is calculated by basically
multiplying a fixed rate times the previous year's property values. Obviously, if property values
274
Dee lei

n so will the District's loc 95-96, the local share increased by
are increasing I ,
approximately $8 million dollars. Tier iI lso reduced when property values are
increasing.
The rate of change in property valu much greater than that of student growth.
That is that the District's local share is inc ' than State revenues generated by student
growth. This has an overall negative imp venues received. In order to support the
new student growth and the loss of State' al revenues must be increased. In 1995-
g II III I
96, the cost per student was (reduced. It is tRRISD's cost per student will be below
i' II I
state averages for the 1995-96 fiscal year.li
Currently, the 1995-96 tax rate is Is valuation. This rate includes $1.21 for
operations and $0.41 for debt service. RR ; III g' rate is actually low when compared to
Texas schools. The rate is within the 40th ' all
Texas schools. The District's debt tax
rate is high. The debt rate is in the 90th pel 1I exas schools. This is to be expected with
the demand for new school facilities.
The voted Maintenance Tax Rate il' D is $ .50 per $100 valuation. The District
cannot exceed this tax rate limit with the C 11 X te. If the growth in students and property
values continues as projected, RRISD may tax rate limit by the year 2000.

the district's general tax rate is well below the voted maintenance tax rate limit of $1.50. The
general fund tax rate of $1.13 is actually low when compared to all texas school districts. RRISD's
general fund tax rate is within the 40 percentile of Texas school district's. Debt service tax rate is
high when compared to all texas schools. The debt service tax rate is in the 90 percentile of Texas
school districts. Student growth and the need for new school facilities to accommodate the growth
has resulted in a high debt tax rate.
State funding and tax limits will most likely be a major topic during the next legislative
session. In 1993-94, fifty Texas school Districts adopted an operating tax rate at the maximum tax
rate limit of $1.50. This increased to sixty-one in 1995-96. Currently, more than 20% of all Texas
school districts are within 10% of reaching the maximum tax rate limit of $1.50.
State funding sources have decreased since 1993-94. In this projection, 1995-96 State
revenue sources are expected to decrease due to increased property values. So this year's
Legislative Session will be very important to the School District in terms of school funding. Tax
revenue sources are projected to increase to replace lost State revenues and accommodate student
growth.

PRESENTATIONS:
7.A. Consider a presentation concerning_a proposed rate increase for the Recycling Center.
David Kautz made the staff presentation. A presentation was previously made to the Council on the
status of the current Recycling Center and the changing and deteriorating market for recyclable
materials. Kautz's presentation was on the financing status of the City's recycling effort. Kautz
noted that the City currently charges 25¢ a month to each residential garbage customer for the
City's recycling effort to make the Recycling Center self supporting. The current cost of operating
the Recycling Center at the Deepwood site, which is manned by Ecology Action, is $3,500 a
month which is labor cost. There is also a hauling cost of $1,000 a month by Central Texas
Refuse or Round Rock Refuse and a miscellaneous operating cost of $120. The total monthly
operating cost of the Recycling Center is $4,620 a month which equates to a minimum cost of 35¢
per residential customer for the Center to break even. This is the minimum cost that is required
now and does not cover any further deterioration of the market in terms of recyclable sales or if the
Council desires to expand the operation or open an additional site. Staff recommended that the
Council consider a 10¢ increase in the recycling cost for each residential garbage customer to make
the service self-sufficient. He added that, currently, this project is subsidized at a cost of
approximately $16,000 annually and the proposed increase is designed to cover this cost.
Mayor Culpepper asked the Council to relay any concerns or changes to Kautz regarding
the proposed ordinance prior to the next Council meeting.
In response to Mayor Pro -tem Palmer's question, Kautz said that the recommended
increase reflects an increase in the original agreement with Ecology Action.
Councilman Joseph asked Kautz if a recycling fee was placed on both the residential and
commercial garbage customers would it help off set the cost of operation the Recycling Center.
Kautz said that he had not reviewed the aspect of charging commercial properties a fee because the
City does not bill for commercial garbage service but if that was the Council's desire staff will look
into that.
Mayor Culpepper asked Kautz to provide figures on the cost of changing the procedure of
billing versus the benefits of the fees that will be received.

10.B. Consider a resolution awarding a bid to TMI Coatings for repainting the North 81
Water Tank. Jim Nuse made the staff presentation. On December 17, 1996, four bids were
received for the painting of the North 81 Water Tank which is by Johnnie Lindell's Chevron gas
station. TMI Coatings was the lowest and best bidder at $159,800. TMI Coating will be using a
chemical stripping process as opposed to sand blasting which has been done in the past. The sand
blasting process requires a lot of shrouding. Due to area being so confined the chemical strip
process was being recommended. Staff recommended award of the bid to TMI Coatings for
$159,800.
