While planning the purchase of this new unit to take our fleet to eight reliable ambulances, we had another ambulance reach a point that Fleet Services can no longer support keeping it in service as a safe and reliable reserve unit. (See attached email from Jon Harshman, Fleet Manager). With a growing need for a fifth unit in service during peak times and truly a need for a sixth unit at times, we need to now acquire two (2) new ambulances so that we can have a fleet of eight (8) reliable in- service ambulances. This will place our fleet at 133% of anticipated peak unit hour need which is a level recommended by Fitch in our recent consultant report. The two newest ambulances that we purchased, manufactured by Crestline out of Canada, continue to have a few minor issues. Difficulties in getting these addressed combined with the recent reorganization and changes in manufacturing and pricing at Crestline cause us to look at other builders that could meet our needs. We have found at least three vendors (Braun Ambulance, Demers Ambulance and Horton Ambulance) that can build an appropriate unit to meet our needs. We are looking at an identical patient module box to be placed on either a Chevy Van chassis or a Mercedes Sprinter Van chassis based upon chassis availability and cost. To assure we will get the best possible pricing on these units, we would recommend making our final decision through a sealed bid process. The due process we have done to date leads us to believe we can acquire these two units at an approximate cost of $150,000 each. This does not include a stretcher or stair chair ($15,000 per ambulance) or other disposable and non - disposable equipment. Radios for two ambulances were included in the recent P25 radio purchase (one for the planned new unit and one for the ambulance no longer in service). In review of our current operational status and our approved budgeted funds, we have found the following options to fit this purchase within the currently approved budgeted funds for FY 2014. First, our FY 2014 budget had funds available to replace our field supervisor vehicle ($80,000) and to purchase the Road Safety Driver Monitoring System ($96,000). After discussing with staff, we feel that we could delay both of these purchases until FY 2015 and use these funds ($176,000 total) to make the allocation of a second ambulance possible immediately. After reviewing our current financial performance with the Finance Department and with City Management, the EMS Department would like to discuss two options with City Council for making this additional purchase this year. • Increase the currently approved financing from $150,000 to $225,000, still for four years and using $75,000 cash as a down payment on the purchase. This will leave $101,000 of reallocated budget funds that could be used to complete the purchase of needed equipment for the second ambulance and put approximately $75,000 into reserve at the end of the fiscal year for future ambulance replacements; OR, • Use the reallocated funds to pay cash for the second ambulance and only finance the original amount of $150,000 for the purchase of the first new unit. The $176,000 of reallocated funds should allow for the purchase of the ambulance and needed equipment but would leave no additional dollars available for additional reserves. Goal: Staff would recommend that we pursue obtaining bids for the purchase of two new ambulances. Once the final cost is known, staff will return to Council with the total cost of two ambulances and the cost of financing the debt versus paying cash. At that time, we will seek Council's approval of the best vendor to build two new units and to approve the best course of action on how to complete the purchase. As we plan for the next several years, we also anticipate requesting one more new ambulance in Fiscal Year 2015 to retire our last remaining excessively used ambulance. After this is accomplished, we will be able to begin a regular unit replacement schedule as proposed this fiscal year. FISCAL IMPACT None ATTACHMENT(S) Email from Jonathan Harshman regarding status of Ambulance 261 Wait, Dudley From: Harshman, Jonathan Sent: Thursday, January 09, 2014 4:47 PM To: Wait, Dudley; Mabbitt, Jason M. Cc: Scurlock, Kellie L.; Bradford, Toni L.; Troncoso, Matt; Letbetter, Doug; Hooks, Jim; Willoughby, Sam; Bierschwale, John Latest update on #261 (2001 Ford Van Ambulance) We have recently been trying to resolve two key issues with the #261. One is with the rear axle assembly that needs replaced due to a worn and scarred rear spindle hub in the area where the inner bearing seal rides and after multiple attempts with a variety of different seals and tactics the only option is replacement ($1500.00 used + $400.00 for supporting hardware parts or $2800.00 new + $400.00 for supporting hardware) .. The other issue concerning the front frame and suspension is due to the fact that we can't keep the truck aligned due to the front frame being relaxed (New frame cost ? ? ?? + labor). Last year new spring perches had to be welded onto the frame after the old ones cracked. This has now fatigued the frame and the truck can not be kept in alignment. The other issues are the emergency brake needs replaced ($1684.00), and the front seats need replaced also as they have no spring support and the passengers are ridding on the frame($600.00 used + shipping). The only good news here is if we agree this truck needs to be decommissioned, we will have transferred the shoreline inverter /charger ($1700.00) to #262 (the other Ford) and we can use many of the other most recently replaced parts that #261 has on it to #262 and save approx.$2000.00 in the future repairs. ,ion Yfarshman Fleet Supervisor City of Schertz / Public Works 10 Commercial Place, Bldg 1 Schertz, Tx 78154 210 - 619 -1814 phone # 210 - 619 -1849 fax # Community.

Ordinance No. 14 -D -16 — Consideration and /or action approving an Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances of the City of Schertz, Texas to prohibit parking on Arroyo Verde from the driveway of the Oaks of Green Valley II Shopping Center to the bridge structure on the north side of the road, approximately 115 feet. First Reading (K. Woodlee /L. Busch) The following was read into record: ORDINANCE NO. 14 -D -16 AN ORDINANCE BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS PROVIDING THAT THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS BE AMENDED BY REVISING ARTICLE V, SECTION 86 -149 PARKING PROHIBITED ON ROADWAYS MAINTAINED BY THE CITY OF SCHERTZ; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Engineer -In- Training Larry Busch wh introduced this item stating staff attended an HOA meeting for the Arroyo Verde Subdivision where residents discussed concerns of sight distance for the driveway from the new Oaks at Green Valley II Shopping Center. Specifically, the residents mentioned when driving towards FM 3009 on Arroyo Verde drivers, cannot see a vehicle pulling out from the retail center if there are vehicles parked along the north side of Arroyo Verde towards the residential subdivision. Staff visited the site to investigate and found that the curvature of the roadway and angle of the driveway approach does raise concerns. Also, staff made frequent visits to the site to try and determine the impact removing the parking will have on the businesses and it appears that within the times observed there will not be a significant impact. Staff recommends prohibiting parking on Arroyo Verde from the driveway of Oaks at Green Valley II to the bridge structure on the north side of the road, approximately 115 ft. The staff recommendation was approved by the Traffic Safety Advisory Commission on March 6, 2014. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Councilmember Edwards who stated when you are trying to turn on FM 3009 from Arroyo Verde; people are parking on both sides up to the corner. He stated that they are also parking in front of the driveway up toward the tree break. The area is completely congested on both sides up to the corner at night from the driveway to FM 3009. Councilmember Edwards stated that there is also a fitness class that is going on in this area that is creating more parking issues as night. Basically, it is turning into a one lane street. You have to wait for on- coming traffic coming in and out. Councilmember Edwards stated that staff should look at the area, particularly during the early evening hours, and see how the area could be adjusted. Councilmember Edwards also asked staff to look at traffic going toward the neighborhood of Arroyo Verde, as it is also being used for parking. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized City Manager John Kessel who reinstated, and to be certain we understand that the whole intersection is congested all the way to the bridge, and what Councilmember Edwards is suggesting is that none of this area should be used for parking on the street, primarily because it is all either turn lanes out on to FM 3009 or turn lanes out and turn lanes into driveways. There are two drive ways that are offset slightly in 04 -08 -2014 Minutes Page - 4 - this area, so no matter where you are in the whole area, you have someone either trying to turn in or out, and what you are suggesting is that it is just too congested to use that street for parking at all. Councilmember Edwards concurred. Councilmember Edwards reiterated that this is at peak times, 6:00 p.m., and it is there for a couple of hours until 8:00 or 9:00 p.m. Mr. Busch concurred that they had observed the heaviest traffic during those times, and that by eliminating parking on the one side, it should help and they are concerned with the parking getting closer to FM 3009. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Executive Director of Development Brian James who stated that perhaps tonight it seems that part of the problems seems to be stemming from scheduling of classes. He stated what they could do and would might have the ability is to come out and stripe the no parking up to the corner that currently is not allow by law, which is 30 feet. What the City will propose to do is do both sides to the corner of FM 3009. Mr. James stated that the Council could do a couple of things tonight; Council could approve what is being recommended tonight, staff will take a look at the peak times that has been mentioned and run it back through the Transportation Safety Advisory Commission and get their input, and based on their input staff can come back to Council with additional recommendations. Councilmember Edwards concurred. Councilmember Edwards also asked if there was a future expansion planned in this particular area. Mr. James stated that he was unaware of an expansion as there are some flood plain issues and his impression was they did not have any more area that could be developed. Councilmember Edwards suggested making that area a parking lot. Mr. James stated that staff has had conversations with the businesses and will continue, possibly getting the tenants to join with the City to talk to the building owner and see if some of the area could be paved to expand for more parking. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola stated that what he understands is the parking on the street is directly related to the parking issue on the side of the building. Mr. James answered yes, as he stated this business has been very successful and parking has been an issue. He stated that staff will continue to have conversations with tenants and the owner, and hopefully the owner sees the need for making a further investment in expanding the parking lot, keeping his tenants happy. Mr. James again stated for clarification, while this solution may not be the entire fix, it helps. Staff recommends approving this on first reading tonight and approving on final reading next week. Staff will go back out and study, contact the property owners and the tenants, then take it back to the Transportation Safety Advisory Commission in May and then bring it back to Council with an update. Council concurred. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola also requested staff look at the parking on the side of the building as well. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Councilmember Edwards who moved, seconded by Councilmember Fowler, to approve Ordinance No. 14 -D -16 on first reading with the modification that staff restudies the area and also includes a parking plan for the building. The vote was unanimous with Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola, Councilmembers Fowler, John, and Edwards voting yes and no one voting no. Councilmember Duke was absent. Motion Carried. 04 -08 -2014 Minutes Page - 5 - 7. Ordinance No. 14 -D -17 — Consideration and/or action approving an Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances of the City of Schertz, Texas to prohibit parking on Silvertree Blvd., from the intersection of Silvertree Blvd., and Dove Meadows to 110 feet Southeast of Idelwood on Silvertree Blvd. First Reading (K. Woodlee/L. Busch) The following was read into record: ORDINANCE NO. 14 -D -17 AN ORDINANCE BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS PROVIDING THAT THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS BE AMENDED BY REVISING ARTICLE V, SECTION 86 -149 PARKING PROHIBITED ON ROADWAYS MAINTAINED BY THE CITY OF SCHERTZ; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Engineer -In- Training Larry Busch who introduced this item stating at the regular TSAC meeting on January 9th a resident spoke about traffic concerns on Silvertree Blvd. Staff visited the site and took traffic counts in the area to try and alleviate their safety concerns. Silvertree Blvd begins as a 42 -foot pavement width cross section connecting into FM 3009. Within the area of concern the roadway necks down to a 30 -foot pavement width roadway with nearly a 90- degree curve. Also, in the transition section there is a commercial driveway apron and after the curve there are single residential lots fronting the roadway and an intersecting roadway. Staff recommends prohibiting parking from the pavement width transition around the curve to the intersecting roadway. This would result in approximately 210 -feet of no parking on the northeast side of Silvertree and 240 -feet of no parking on the southwest side of the road. Mr. Busch stated that part of the problem is the over flow parking from Silvertree Nursing Home. Staff spoke to the manager at Silvertree where they stated that the employees have a shift change at 2:00 p.m., and sometimes the parking lot over flows generally during that portion of the day. Staff's recommendation was approved by the Traffic Safety Advisory Commission on March 6, 2014. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Councilmember Edwards who stated he knows the area and that along the curve area normally there are three F -350 trucks that are parked. He notices a piece of property that is unused and asked if this was an effective use of the property when we have a street that chokes down and turns into a one way when there is parking on both sides. He suggested that a possible solution would be to square off the circle area, which might alleviate some of the problem. Mr. Busch stated that it would possibly help on the curve area but the area is still tied into the intersection. The home actually goes up to the corner and backs off into a green lot. Councilmember Edwards asked does the City have to pass an ordinance for that particular street just because it is choked down when we can come to a solution quickly, which he believes they could come to a better solution than just passing a no parking in that area. He stated he is not negating what TSAC and the staff are recommending; he just wanted to see about a different solution as he suggested that would be better. He also understands everything has a cost to it. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola recognized Executive Director of Development Brian James who came forward stating part of the frustration was residents in the neighborhood believing that 04 -08 -2014 Minutes Page - 6 - business parking was encroaching into the neighborhood. It is also an odd curve where there are site distance problems and he didn't get the idea that it wasn't wide enough to get past. It was more that there is a business in the area where they are parking in the neighborhood. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola stated that he would like to see staff work with Silvertree in assisting in the employee parking issue. The fact is there is not enough parking for Silvertree, and he believes you are fixing the system and not the problem. Mr. James stated that he would see if on the site plan the business could pick up more parking spaces, but believes that there is not. Mr. James stated again that this is more of a scheduling issue on how Silvertree schedules their employees. They could stagger scheduling their employees so they all don't overlap at the same time. Mr. James stated staff would schedule a meeting with Silvertree and suggest possible alternative shift changes. Mr. James stated that until the other property becomes developed, he believes that this is only a temporary fix, while again stating that in most parking cases, the site plan provides for sufficient parking. While parking is fine normally, there are those times where it is congested and we make due. Mr. James continued address Council questions and concerns. Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola stated that he didn't want to lose focus on what the City values are; again he encouraged discussions with Silvertree and the neighbors to try and resolve the parking issues, thus keeping the business and homeowners happy. 01 Mayor Pro-Tern Scagliola recognized Councilmember Fowler, who moved, seconded by Councilmember John, to approve Ordinance No. 14 -D -17 first reading with the provision to continue to work with Silvertree to find additional parking and report back to Council. The vote was unanimous with Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola, Councilmembers Fowler, John, and Edward voting yes and no one voting no. Councilmember Duke was absent. Councilmember Fowler was absent.

(Final Reading) BACKGROUND Staff attended an HOA meeting for the Arroyo Verde Subdivision where residents discussed concerns of sight distance for the driveway from the new Oaks at Green Valley II Shopping Center. Specifically, the residents mentioned when driving towards FM 3009 on Arroyo Verde drivers cannot see a vehicle pulling out from the retail center if there are vehicles parked along the north side of Arroyo Verde towards the residential subdivision. Staff visited the site to investigate and found that the curvature of the roadway and angle of the driveway approach does raise concerns. Also, staff made frequent visits to the sight to try and determine the impact removing the parking will have on the businesses and it appears that within the times observed there will not be a significant impact. Staff recommends prohibiting parking on Arroyo Verde from the driveway of Oaks at Green Valley II to the bridge structure on the north side of the road approximately 115 ft. The staff recommendation was approved by the Traffic Safety Advisory Commission on March 6, 2014. At the April 8, 2014 Council Meeting, Council passed the Ordinance on first reading to prohibit parking with the understanding staff will expand the scope of the study and return to Council following final action on this Ordinance with a solution that addresses a larger area. Goal To ensure that all streets maintained by the City are currently listed and up to date in the City Code of Ordinances and to alleviate the sight issues due to parking at the Oaks of Green Valley II Shopping Center to ensure that the citizens of Schertz have safe methods to exit their subdivision. Community Benefit City Ordinances are current and up to date regarding all streets owned maintained by the City to strive to provide for the safety of the citizens of Schertz. Summary of Recommended Action Recommend approval on final reading to prohibit parking on Arroyo Verde from the driveway of the Oaks of Green Valley II Shopping Center (as shown in Exhibit A) to the bridge structure on the north side of the road, approximately 115 feet. FISCAL IMPACT The fiscal impact will be $160 for no parking signs paid out of FY 2013 -14 approved budget account number 101 - 359 - 551600 Street Maintenance RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends Council approve on final reading Ordinance No. 14 -D -16 to amend Article 5, Section 86 -149 Parking Prohibited of the Code of Ordinances to include prohibition of parking on Arroyo Verde from the driveway of the Oaks of Green Valley II Shopping Center (as shown in Exhibit A) to the bridge structure on the north side of the road, approximately 115 feet.

BACKGROUND Over the previous months, Mark McLiney and Andrew Friedman of Southwest Securities, the City's financial advisor, discussed the ability to refund a portion of the outstanding General Obligation Bonds, Series 2006 for debt service savings with City Staff as interest rates have continued to remain near historic lows.

The City can issue new Bonds and Refund the existing Obligations in advance of their call date and achieve debt service savings. Based upon today's interest rates a new Refunding Bond would save the City approximately $612,000 or $47,000 per year. f.7 X0305 hi I Ole I MEN @[Q e I Staff recommends that the City Council approve the City's financial advisors to proceed with the necessary steps to refund the Series 2006 Bonds and present the Council with final interest rates and savings at the City's regularly scheduled May 20, 2014 City Council meeting where final action will be taken by the Council.

BACKGROUND The Schertz Historical Preservation Committee and Comal Settlement Association petitioned Texas Department of Transportation ( "TxDOT ") to allow their groups to install and maintain landscaping around a Comal Settlement Historic Marker at the intersections of Old Nacogdoches Road and FM 482. TxDOT requires a "Landscape Construction and Maintenance Agreement" agreement with the City of Schertz to accept responsibility for the work. The Agreement requires the City to ensure that "adequate insurance for payment of damages which might result during Facility activities" be provided. Initially the City had planned to enter into an "Acknowledgement of Conditions for Landscape Maintenance Work" Agreement with the Schertz Historical Preservation Committee and Comal Settlement Association to perform all of the labor, installation, and maintenance in the area. The requirement for provision of adequate insurance proved problematic. As such it is agreed that the City will host volunteer work days to organize, oversee and supervise the installation and maintenance of the landscaping. The two groups will purchase the landscaping materials. Volunteers will need to sign waivers /hold harmless agreements to participate in the work days which will be supervised by a City employee. Goal To enter into an Landscape Construction and Maintenance Agreement with TxDOT for the purpose of allowing City to hold volunteer events to allow members of the Schertz Historical Preservation Committee and the Comal Settlement Association to help install and maintain landscaping around the Comal Settlement Historic Marker located at the intersections of Old Nacogdoches Road and FM 482. Community Benefit To provide an aesthetically pleasing environment to the community, residents, and visitors that will choose to spend time at this specified landmark. Summary of Recommended Action Staff recommends council approve the agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation. FISCAL IMPACT Less than $1,000 per year in staff time to oversee work events. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends council approve Resolution 14 -R -36.
