Discussion and possible action regarding future transportation issues and needs. (B. James/B. James) Mayor Carpenter came down to the podium to speak with the Council and the Transportation Safety Advisory Commission (TSAC). Mayor Carpenter stated he asked for this joint meeting. Mayor Carpenter stated the reason he wanted this joint meeting is so that as the City looks forward to the next five, ten, fifteen, and twenty years, and as we consider the economic development, and the development generally that is going on throughout the City of Schertz, we are going to have a need for citizens to get around. We already see that on FM 3009, even though we do not have sidewalks in yet, we already have pedestrian traffic. We 02 -25 -2014 Minutes Page - I - have citizens trying to get from the residential parts of our community up to HEB, Lowes, etc. If it does come to pass that the Lone Star Rail is built in the near future to the north, the other side of IH 35 from where we are now, we are going to have a need for the citizens who might stop at our rail station, a way to visit our businesses further into the City, or for our residents to get from their homes to the rail stop if they do not want to drive and pay additional money to park. All these things said, he has asked TSAC here this evening.to have a discussion in regard to beginning the process of planning what public transportation may look like in Schertz. Given the role TSAC has taken since its inception and given the things they have seen with a unique perspective, he would like, and is hopeful that the Council is also willing, to ask the TSAC members to begin brainstorming, exploring, and thinking about what public transportation might look like in the years to come; what it should be and what it should not be. In particular what it should be and should not be for Schertz. Public transportation, when we say those words, in many ways has a connotation of large expensive empty buses that seem to be transporting "Harvey ", the invisible rabbit, and no one else. That doesn't work and doesn't make sense for what we need here in Schertz. What may make sense is that we have a trolley style looking bus that goes up and down Schertz Parkway and FM 3009 that gets citizens from their houses to the business within Schertz, more so as we become densely populated. Mayor Carpenter stated he would like to hear their thoughts and see if this was something the TSAC members would be interested in taking on, as well as hearing from the Council if they concur. Mayor Carpenter opened this topic up for discussion and commentary. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councihnember Fowler who stated that when he thinks of future transportation he sees two things. The Mayor had mentioned a trolley car type transportation system for those wanting to get around in the local area, but along with that, he also sees a need to get our residents into the San Antonio area. He understands that AACOG has a system that deals with transportation and maybe TSAC can see how the City can be involved in the infrastructure that is already there to expand those services. Councihnember Fowler wants TSAC to think locally and think of going into the San Antonio area, specifically the hospital areas. Councihnember Fowler also stated as the City continues to grow there will be a need for new roads and major arteries getting in and out of our City. This is something TSAC should also look at. He believes that the Council would support whatever TSAC might need to be successful in developing the plan, i.e., contracting out for a study that would look at the roads in Schertz. We need to focus on citizens needing to travel within the City as well as out of the City. This will assist in unclogging the major arteries around Schertz. Mayor Carpenter recognized Chair Stephen Bish who stated this has been brought up before and that they would need to look at how large of a project would you want them to start out with. There would be questions regarding in the future would there be bus stops in certain areas where there are no sidewalks and other things. He stated that TSAC would be willing to work with the City on this project. He stated this is going to require a lot of planning with not only the businesses, but with all City Departments. We need to look at the types of events that come into the City as well as the current City events that are held such as the 4a' of July Jubilee, which creates a large amount of traffic. Again, Chair Bish stated that TSAC would be willing to take on the task of planning future transportation needs within the City. 02 -25 -2014 Minutes Page - 2 - Mayor Carpenter stated that they often say that none of them on Council have all the answers and they rely on our citizen boards and commissions to help. He appreciates TSAC for taking this on. It is an important next step and it seemed like a natural fit that TSAC would take on the role of being the primary advisors about public transportation in the City of Schertz. Mayor Carpenter recognized Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola who stated that the citizen boards are the Councils primary advisors. He suggested TSAC find something small that will work and build from there, solicit information and dedicate time in doing some research. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Duke who stated he echoed Mayor Pro-Tern Scagliola. We are talking about a vision for Schertz and where we are going to be from a transportation aspect. A good starting point would be to look at the City's Master Plan. A lot of time and effort was put into the plan. Look at the plan and figure out ways to incorporate even tweaking the master plan with the thought of how to improve transportation. This is a starting point for TSAC. Councihnember Duke agreed with Councilmember Fowler in taking the private sector word of "strategic planning ". One of the things we need to have as part of our five, ten, and fifteen year range is infrastructure in transportation. This is a critical piece of the comprehensive plan. Timing is everything, and to have that comprehensive plan available where we are constantly updating it with the growth of Crossvine and other developments, utilizing it so that we can see what the City needs to implement next and what is critical. We need to visit the plan every year during our planning process and he agrees it is critical now to plan for the future transportation needs of the City. Purposeful and meaningful planning is critical; comprehensively what we want transportation to look like in twenty years. Mayor Carpenter recognized TSAC Commissioner Phillip Rowland who came forward stating that they need to consider all the areas within Schertz in the transportation plan, the currently developed as well as those being considered, such as the South Schertz area. Mayor Carpenter stated that another thought is to not limit ourselves to thinking traditionally about what transportation is. Hike and bike trails become part of the over all public transportation, a pedestrian society if you will, this becomes part of the overall plan. Mayor Carpenter stated he believes you can start small. We have some immediate needs. We have citizens at Lakeside Village, at the Senior Center and the retirement facilities in town that just have a need to get from these places to HEB and back, a need to get to the pharmacy and back. Mayor Carpenter suggested we could start with a small bus that makes one run a day to these facilities. Mayor Carpenter suggested TSAC have conversations with TxDOT regarding plans for sidewalks along FM 3009, as pedestrian walks are part of the project as well. They should speak to individuals within our organization that have come from other cities who can share what they did that were successful. They should also speak to individuals from other cities to gather ideas. The other cities may be currently working on their transportation needs which could also benefit Schertz. Mayor Carpenter recognized City Manager John Kessel who stated this is a great idea. The first thing that he would offer up is that the Planning and Zoning Commission shares a bit of the burden and responsibility for our transportation planning, we have to join forces. Engage the Planning and Zoning Commission to make sure everyone is on the same page moving forward. Mr. Kessel encouraged TSAC to visit with Executive Director of Development Brian James, as he has knowledge of how to set up a program like this and utilize his 02 -25 -2014 Minutes Page -3- knowledge of what he saw that worked and what did not work. Mr. Kessel encouraged TSAC to think outside the box. We are talking about a term called "multimodal transportation system ", which includes hike and bike trails, transportation within the community and transportation out of the community. Thinking this way, we will be successful in finding what will work for our community. Mr. Kessel's last recommendation was that if you think about a hike and bike trail, it doesn't start and stop in one community, it starts and stops where you choose to. Most citizens will not know if they are.in Schertz or Cibolo or Garden Ridge, or where ever they are; they will just know that there are good facilities to enjoy. Mr. Kessel encourages a regional approach, stating that the City has been very successful with other things that have been done regionally. It would be very inefficient to run a public transportation system just in Schertz, but if you took an EMS -like approach and draw a broader square area, it might be something we could all share the cost of together if it was a good plan. Mr. Kessel stated that this is a tremendous charge that the community in the future will benefit from and it will certainly change people's lives and will make a difference.

He also stated that it has a foam system that is unique that will do less damage and provide more coverage to extinguish the fire more rapidly. He stated the other trucks in the Schertz Fire Rescue Fleet can perform one or more of those fire functions, but not all of them. Hearing of Residents: Mayor Carpenter recognized the following who spoke: • Mr. Michael Spain, 955 Moonglow Avenue, who addressed the Council recTping the Hal Baldwin Scholarship program. He stated that this will be the sixth (6 ) year of awarding scholarships. To date the committee has awarded scholarships in the amount of $11,500 to eight (8) students, averaging a little over one (1) a year. Mr. Spain recognized Committee Members Syd Verinder and Reginna Agee, whom he met with today regarding the Hal Baldwin Scholarship program. He stated the committee's recommendation is to keep things pretty much the same as they were last year with only a couple of changes. They are as follows: The student must now attend two (2) City Council meetings, identify and write an essay on one of the topics of discussion from one of the meetings, and write about what interested them in that topic as well as discuss the issue of public service and how it made an impression on them. They must also write an essay and discuss what makes a City Government exceptional. Mr. Spain stated that there were rules in the past to follow regarding a specific font size on the essays and since some of the students struggled with this, the requirement has been removed. Additionally, they want the students to know that the scholarship award is in an amount of at least $1,000, but that excellence in the 02 -25 -2014 Minutes Page - 5 - presentation, particularly in the presentation of the essays, could lead to a higher award.

Worksession Presentation and discussion regarding the second amendment to the Crossvine Planned Development District (B. James/M. Sanchez/L. Wood) Mayor Carpenter recognized Mr. Chris Price, President of Schertz FM 1518, LTD, who provided a power point presentation regarding Phases I, II, and III of the Crossvine Planned Development District along with their proposed amendment to the Planned Development District (PDD). The project started back in the early 2000's and the original developer assembled about 850 acres at the intersection of FM 1518 and Lower Seguin Rd. A PDD was adopted in 2006 which called for a pretty standard subdivision. It started strong and then because of the 2008 housing bust, only Lennar and D R Horton continued to build out 171 lots. The original developers then stalled out and the new developer took over the project in July 2011. It became clear that the original business plan was not going to work and neither was the master plan. After much research, they put together a new master plan and amendment to the original PDD to present to the City. The plan is a mixed use residential and commercial community, including office and commercial space, recreation, civic, parks and open spaces. A key element of the new plan is the creation of a trail network. This design offers a solution to the drainage issues in the area by developing open spaces, a trail network, and pocket parks that will slow the water down and retain it for a short while. The City adopted the new plan in January of 2012. The plan has three modules. In August of 2012 module I was adopted and the developer hopes to deliver its first lots in about 30 days. These will be 50 to 70 foot lots and the builders are David Weekly and Ryland Homes. The key elements are the greenbelt and pocket parks, which include a family oriented area, a fitness oriented space, and a large open soccer field. All of these recreation facilities are linked by the eight (8) foot wide concrete trail. The amenity center should be open by early August, with a pool and amphitheater. There will also be two (2) detention ponds on the property. Now they are coming back to discuss the second amendment to Module II (Parts A & B). Module I contains traditional production housing with 50, 60 & 70 foot lots. Module R introduces multi - family, garden, attached residential, and the commercial and civic plans. Module III adds more multi residential, independent and assisted living, civic, medical offices and a possible church site. The amendment being brought forward next week is in regard to Module II, Part A, which is located south of Lower Seguin Road. Later in the Spring they will bring forward a discussion in regard to Module II, Part A on the north side of Woman Hollering Creek. The PDD amendment they are asking for is to add the additional layer of details into the plan. They have placed a commercial site at the intersection of FM 1518 and Lower Seguin Road; it will be buffered from the existing Sedona subdivision with multi family or garden homes as well as attached residential units. 02 -25 -2014 Minutes Page - 7 - One other element they are asking for is for three additional properties to be brought into the PDD. The properties are: (1) a commercial tract north of Lower Seguin Road, which will be governed by Module II, Part B, (2) a 1.5 acre tract with a house on it located on FM 1518, which will be governed by Module I, and (3) a 40 acre parcel west of the existing Sedona Subdivision, which will be governed by Module I. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Fowler who asked if these homes will be in the 100 year flood plain area and Mr. Price responded that they would not be. Mayor Carpenter recognized Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola who asked what type of housing will be offered in Tract III. Mr. Price responded that it would be single family residential with 50, 60, or 70 foot lots. Tract III will also open up access to the City Park from the amenity center. There will also not be any problems in the No fly Zone of Randolph Air Force Base area operations. Flooding concerns will be addressed with a variety of detention ponds created in the area to handle the water. They are also coordinating with city staff to roll out these houses with a schedule that will coincide with additional sewer system additions. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Fowler who asked about the commercial aspects of the development. Mr. Price stated he was already receiving calls weekly from a variety of interested commercial enterprises but so far they are not interested in any of them. They are going to be selective in who they respond to positively, as their goal is to retain a congenial neighborhood with small business enterprises such as coffee shops, cleaners, and restaurants. Consent Agenda Items Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Fowler who requested agenda item 3 be removed for separate action. 1.
